The army was stationed in Xiangping for some days.

The officials selected by Shouchun finally came.

Cao Shuo personally explained to them some matters to be paid attention to, and asked Zhong Changtong to hand over local affairs.

After doing this, he decided to lead the army to Jixian County.

The number of officials sent from Shouchun was quite large.

In addition to taking over the Taishou of Liaodong, each city also appointed a county commander and a county lieutenant.

Earlier, Cao Shuo was still worried that there were too many officials trained by the Shouchun Academy, and so many people would not be needed in various places.

After assigning officials to various places in Liaodong, he felt that just one academy was far from enough to support the training of officials in various places.

On the way out of Xiangping to Jixian County, Cao Shuo rode a tall horse, and Guo Jia and others accompanied him.

"Does Fengxiao feel that there are too few talents cultivated by Shouchun Academy?" He suddenly asked Guo Jia.

"Childe is saying that officials from all over the country are selected?" Guo Jia did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Exactly." Cao Shuo said: "In the future, officials everywhere must be mediocre and capable, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to train so many officials with only one Shouchun Academy." ”

"I think it's more secure for the academy to cultivate." Guo Jia said: "Childe, imagine that the officials who came out of the academy have been trained by Mr. Shui Jing and Mr. Pang Degong, they know more about how to behave, and Childe is more handy in control. ”

"What does Bong-hyo mean ......," Cao Shuo asked.

"I'd rather expand the university than recruit outside." Guo Jia said: "Unless some well-known celebrities, the world knows the character, and the son can be appointed, otherwise he has to go to the school." ”

Smiling at Cao Shuo, Guo Jia lowered his voice and said: "Gongzi wants to gather power in the future, if you don't control the source, how can you do it?" ”

Cao Shuo nodded: "What Feng Xiao said makes sense. ”

He then asked Zhong Changtong on the side, "When Mr. Zhong handed over the local affairs, what did he think of the officials from Shouchun?" ”

"He is very intelligent and has a strong understanding." Zhong Changtong said: "Many things are handed over to them, and it doesn't take much effort, otherwise Gongzi wouldn't have left Xiangping so soon." ”

"It seems that it is really necessary for the academy to train officials." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "In this way, the protégés of Mr. Shui Jing and Pang Degong are all over the world, and they are both high-ranking and powerful. ”

"It's also Childe who gave him the opportunity to do this." Guo Jia said: "If it wasn't for the two of them who were invited out of the mountain at the beginning, how could they have cultivated so many officials? ”

"The two gentlemen have no intention of making a name for themselves, and they are willing to go out of the mountain to help me, which is also a great favor." Cao Shuo said: "Although I am very charismatic and can always attract talents, the two gentlemen are very different. People who don't want to be officials are willing to go out, which is the real affirmation of those in high positions! ”

Cao Shuo praised himself without leaving a trace, Guo Jia smiled, and Zhong Changtong turned his face to the side.

Some of the generals next to him understood, and some didn't.

The generals didn't say anything, but Cao Shuo felt a little embarrassed.

"You people aren't interesting." No one answered his words, Cao Shuo pursed his lips and said, "I said something, but no one was willing to answer." ”

"What Childe said is so profound, we don't know how to pick it up." Chen Zhi seemed to be honest and answered.

Cao Shuo's head was suddenly covered with black lines.

Where his words are profound, it is clear that everyone does not agree with what he says......

"Although I have been fighting for many years, I still can't change the problem of being too benevolent." Cao Shuo said: "If you were someone else, with your attitude, you would have to suffer a lot of boards on your buttocks." ”

"So we followed Childe and didn't follow anyone else." Chen Zhi replied again.

Guo Jia and the others laughed dumbly, but the black line on Cao Shuo's head was heavier......

When he left Liaodong, the villages Cao Shuo met were relatively depressed.

Some villages are even under construction, and there are only a handful of villagers.

After passing through these places, the more you go to the hinterland of Youzhou, the richer the place becomes.

Seeing that he was about to arrive in Jixian County, Cao Shuo found that every household in the nearby village was full of grain, and the old and young were also brightly dressed.

What he saw and heard along the way made Cao Shuo feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

On the way to Jixian County, he said to Zhong Changtong: "Zhong Gong also saw the scene along the way, although Yuan Hao governed Youzhou in an orderly manner, he inevitably favored one over the other. The place far away from Jixian County is relatively depressed, but the vicinity of Jixian County is very rich. If this situation is sustained for too long, it will inevitably lead to spontaneous migration. Rich places will grow in population, while barren places will gradually become barren. ”

"I understand what Childe means." Zhong Changtong replied: "It's nothing more than trying to balance a few words. ”

"There is no such thing as equilibrium." Cao Shuo said: "I don't want to be the same everywhere, since Yuan Hao has governed the vicinity of Jixian County like this, Zhonggong will continue to do it and make the place richer." As for other places, we will invest more in the future and open roads to transport products from all over the world. Only when there are frequent exchanges between various places can more benefits be obtained. ”

"I see." Zhong Changtong replied: "Don't worry, within three years, I will definitely give Gongzi a rich Youzhou!" ”

"The term of office of local officials is only five years." "At the end of the five-year term, a decision will be made on whether to transfer to another place or return to Shouchun based on political performance," Cao said. As for those whose talents are not enough, I will demote them. At the beginning, I knew Zhong Gong in Bingzhou, and I also knew a little about Zhong Gong's talents. Don't let me down! ”

"Don't worry, Childe, absolutely not!" Zhong Changtong replied.

Liaodong was originally subordinate to Youzhou, but it was only when the Gongsun family was entrenched there and never obeyed the deployment of Youzhou, which prompted Cao Shuo to send troops to defeat it.

Starting from Liaodong to Jixian County, the journey is not very far.

The speed of the march of the army was not very fast, and after nearly twenty days of marching, they came to the outside of Jixian County.

Cao Shuo came, and Tian Feng took the officials of Jixian County out of the city to greet him.

Seeing Cao Shuo from afar, Tian Feng rode his horse and galloped, and the officials followed closely behind him.

In front of Cao Shuo, Tian Feng dismounted and saluted: "The son came from afar, and I failed to run to meet him, which is really a sin." ”

"I haven't seen you for many days, it seems that Yuan Hao is estranged from me." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "How can you talk to me about this kind of foreign words?" ”

Hehe, with a smile, Tian Feng said: "I really think so......"

"There are a lot of affairs in Youzhou, and you haven't been able to meet you from afar, do I still blame you?" Cao Shuo said: "This time I came to Youzhou, in addition to the things that people sent a letter last time, there are many things I want to ask you. ”
