Those who followed Chen Zhi were all from the Jixian clan, but there were no officials, because Chen Zhi greeted him with a private identity, but the people who accompanied him also had an extraordinary status in the entire Youzhou, so that Liu Gang and Peng Qi suddenly came into contact with the upper echelons of Youzhou and had connections.

Then there was a dinner party, which was very lively, which made the two even more emotional.

That night, Liu Gang and Peng Qi slept soundly, looking forward to the future and looking forward to a good future in Youzhou.

Chen Zhi has already passed the anger with the two, they want to be a leader, they can't rely on their identity background, at most they are officials, if they want to be officials and control people, they have to go through screening.

The content of this screening is the way of learning, involving hundreds of schools, Liu Gang and Peng Qi have been studying hard for many years, and they are not worried, and they accept it happily.

But when the two of them slept, Chen Zhi did not rest, he was still full of energy to deal with things, and called Wang Gou as soon as possible.

Wang Gou came in, saluted respectfully, and then his eyes fell to the corner of the room, and saw a scribe sitting there, this person was silent, although Wang Gou did not know him, he did not ask about the origin, but waited for Chen Zhi to inquire.

When he saw someone, Chen Zhi asked: "How is it, how do you feel about walking all the way and watching the scene in Jizhou?" ”

Wang Gou replied: "Here in Jizhou, the subordinates do not have a full view, only look at a county in Changshan, you know that there are many hidden dangers, because the Hu people are inferior, do not take the people as the root, but exclude them, divide the difference between the upper and lower levels, do oppressive things, regard the peddlers and pawns as slaves, and look at the common people like pigs and dogs, that is, the family family, also like the cattle and horses in captivity, want to use it, but prevent it, more hostile, so like this, the upper and lower enemies, can be strong for a while, and it is difficult to do a lifetime, so although the territory is peaceful, but do not feel the homeless, bandits are rampant, no one clears. ”

When Chen Zhi heard this, he thought for a moment before he said: "Listen to your words, the people of Jizhou can be described as hard, there are homeless people, there are bandits, they have to bear land rent and taxes, and they have to endure the oppression of the Hu people, so how many of these people do you think will flee in the future?" ”

Wang Gou said categorically: "If there is no famine or famine, ten people and five people will escape, and if it is a natural disaster or man-made disaster, there will be no one in ten." ”

He saw Chen Zhi groaning, and continued: "When Master Bao recommended his subordinates, when he mentioned to the lord that his subordinates had been refugees, and they first looked for a few places, in addition to Youzhou, as well as Wei County and other places, because they were worried about the restless road, they went to investigate first, and for various reasons, they fell into the army. ”

"Oh?" Chen Zhi nodded, when Bao Jingyan came back with Wang Gou, the secret spy department roughly investigated, although there was not much news, but it was known that his life was approximate, and this was included in the key cultivation in the house, "Then according to you, in this Jizhou, especially the people under the leadership of Shi Le, a huge wave of migration and escape is brewing?" ”

"That's right," Wang Gou replied, still without the slightest hesitation, "The time of the outbreak is probably between the past two years, and Shi Le should have no countermeasures, and he will not change his policy for this." ”

Chen Zhi asked directly: "Then do you think that if the people under Shile in Jizhou become homeless, how many of them will come to Youzhou?" ”

"Youzhou ......" Wang Gou hesitated this time and did not answer immediately.

Chen Zhi smiled: "Don't have any worries, say what you want to say, no one on Shile's side dares to say disobedient words now, between the upper and lower levels, they don't dare to say the truth, either flattering each other, or beware of each other, how can it last?" I can't do the same on my side, how do I know in my heart that I have taken over the file in the past few days, and all kinds of ills cannot be eliminated in a day, but a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and there must always be a goal first. ”

Wang Gou relieved his mind and said: "Youzhou has a lot of reputation in the north, but the main reason is that the original Youzhou Assassin General Wang Jun has many military exploits, and there is that Xianbei people as a subordinate, and the fierce reputation is very great, although it is famous, but this reputation is ......."

"This kind of reputation can make people fearful, but it won't attract people," Chen Zhi understood what Wang Gou meant, "What's more, Youzhou is close to the north, and further north is the desert grassland, there are many people who enter the country, and the winter is cold, it is called the bitter cold land, if the people flee, they must first go to the south and east, and there is really no way, so they will choose the north." ”

Wang Gou was a little embarrassed, but he still nodded in agreement, and then said: "That's true, if it is a subordinate, maybe he will choose the northern land, because this place is in ruins, and there is a Ming lord, but others, the first thing to think about is the stability of the family, that is, the subordinates, even if they come to Youzhou, they will find a way to let their family move elsewhere, it is likely that it is Wei County, which has been looking for a long time." ”

"What you say sounds quite true, okay, I understand the general situation, you have done a good job." Chen Zhi nodded lightly, he didn't make any promises, but it made Wang Gou happy in his heart, he knew that it was much more useful to be able to put his name in the heart of the lord than to honor the credit immediately!

"Please rest early, and my subordinates will retire first!" After taking the initiative to say goodbye, Wang Gou glanced at the person in the corner, then left the general's mansion and walked to a no-man's corner, and couldn't help but wave his fist into the air to vent the excitement in his heart.

"Gao Ji beside Ran Zhan, born in Goguryeo, has no family background, first screened, and made meritorious contributions, the key is to leave an impression in the heart of the lord, Fang was transferred to Ran Zhan's side, this can be on the rise, and now it has gained momentum; I compare with him, even if it is not as good, but the background is not too bad after all, if it is in other places, it may be difficult to have the idea of promotion, but in Youzhou, there is an opportunity, you must grasp it! ”

Thinking like this, he walked vigorously and soon disappeared at the end of the street.

On the other side, Chen Zhi called the literati who was sitting in the corner of the room.

Looking at this person, Chen Zhi smiled and asked, "Mr. has heard this situation, what is his opinion?" ”

The person opposite him, dressed like a scholar with a lupine scarf, but with a long beard, was Sun Xiu, Zhao Wangsun's staff.

Sun Xiuben served the Zhao Wang's line, but the King of Zhao was trapped, and the prince was silent in Beijing, he escorted the Zhao Wangsun to Daijun, wanted to ask for help, but failed to do so, and ran to find Wang Jun, still no response, tossing and turning, and finally returned to Daijun, the result coincided with the war, Chen Zhi had no experience to deal with them at all, so he was settled.

During this period, Sun Xiu often wrote letters to offer advice, and gave Chen Zhi a lot of ideas, and a few were adopted, and Chen Zhi gradually grasped Sun Xiu's thoughts.

This time sitting in Jixian County, Chen Zhi planned to forge Youzhou and lay the foundation, so he summoned Sun Xiu to meet with Wang Gou and inquire, and let this person listen, and now ask him what he thinks.

"If the general wants to wait for Jizhou to be in chaos, it is in vain, as far as I know, although Shi Le is cruel, but he is not mean to his own people, there are quite some loyal people, there are these people as the skeleton, even if there is chaos in Jizhou, it can be suppressed, it will not give people a chance to take advantage of, but the people are overwhelmed, scattered and fleeing, it is possible, and just like the gentleman just said, in the past few years, what the general wants is nothing more than to seize the opportunity to attract the population, this plan is feasible."

Chen Zhi narrowed his eyes and asked, "In your opinion, how to attract the people to vote?" ”

Sun Xiu smiled and said, "You can learn from the method of screening......
