Chapter 19 On the Potential of Forces

Talent recruitment is actually like this, fame is really important, and social status is also very important.

The key is that Li Ming has both, and now he only needs to issue a recruitment order, so there will inevitably be many people from wealthy families and poor families in the world who will come to apply. Of course, the imperial court now also has this ability, and the effect is even better.

"Speaking of which, where are the two little guys Pan Lin and Long Er in their positions now?" Li Ming asked casually.

"This subordinate can't answer now!" Jia Xu thought that Li Ming was talking to him, and immediately replied in panic.

"I just sighed, Huang Xu, Lu Su, Zhou Yu, Gu Yong and Huang Shan (Huang Gai's son), the second generation of children have begun to grow up, and we will begin to grow old in more than ten years......," Li Ming said thoughtfully, at that time, Li Chong was also an adult, and Li Mei was also married.

In the huge China, only a small amount of territory in Jiangdong and Jiangbei has been laid down, and it can't really be according to the history of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the struggle for more than 100 years finally came to an end, right?

"How about further speeding up the north?" Li Ming looked at Wang Yu, "We have innate conditions, we have developed for a few years more than other places, and the rear is more stable." And now the imperial court has not been able to completely stabilize in Guanzhong, or even in the Liangzhou region! ”

"But our Jiangdong also has withered talents, many talents are from the Central Plains, and the lord probably won't want the military and political worlds to be controlled by the Jiangdong family? In other words, until the talent problem is solved, this is our shortcoming, even if the Northern Expedition gets more land and there are not enough officials to manage it, we will not be able to really control these territories. Wang Yu replied directly.

"It will take three years...... Li Ming sighed, the scheduled imperial examination system can only be completely perfected after three years, mainly because there are enough candidates who can participate in the imperial examination, otherwise the first scientific examination will inevitably be completely monopolized by the children of the family.

Fortunately, Zhu Jun is in Huiji Academy, but he has managed all aspects, and the problem of students' moral character is constantly emphasized. For more than a dozen students with excellent grades, there are not only independent dormitories, but also special maidservants to serve them, and at the same time teach them various etiquette and knowledge, to put it bluntly, let them understand what is called aristocratic life, but it is not rich to forget it.

"Good seedlings should be taken care of, and at the same time, let others know what kind of treatment excellent people have, so as to stimulate them to study hard! As for those who are not talented, why should they care about their feelings?! Zhu Jun's original words are like this.

Li Ming is not dissatisfied with the aristocratic academy-style education, and in the future, almost all the students of the Huiji Academy are in the military and politics, and they have a good aristocratic quality, which can help them go further on this road. I didn't understand why many people were willing to spend so much money to send their children to study in aristocratic colleges, but now I understand.

An official like an upstart is destined to not go far in the officialdom, and the key is to obtain connections, which will also make the child go further on the official road in the future. There will also be some people who don't understand this, but as Zhu Jun said, why care about their feelings for these guys who don't grow up?

"Lord, Pan Lin has become a general, guarding in Weipu Pass, and the main general is Peng Qi, a side disciple of the Peng family. As for Long Er, he was under the command of Huang Zhong, and now he is even a military marquis under Zhao Yun. Jia Xu finally found out the information of the two and hurriedly reported.

"There are a lot of capable people under Huang Zhong's command, and it is not easy for Long Er to become a military marquis!" Li Ming nodded.

Long Er is a descendant of the Western Chu general Long He, the Long family was almost killed by the Western Han Dynasty in the past, and finally abandoned the martial arts and served the Han Dynasty in order to retain the clansmen. Among the clansmen of later generations, only Long Er practiced martial arts, but in the end, the family declined, and the family tradition has been lost, so that he can stand out from the Huiji Academy and become the main force of the military marquis, and his achievements are actually much higher than Pan Lin.

In contrast, although he was not able to obtain the Xuan-level exercises to condense the innate Qi, with the supply of the family, Zhu Huan, who had a good martial arts environment since he was a child, has now become a leader in the academy, which seems to be a matter of course.

"Kan Ze and Wu Ji's performance is good, in addition, among the new round of freshmen, there is a person named He Qi who is also very good, among the fresh students, there is a student named Xu Sheng who is very good, and there is a student named Ding Feng who is also very conspicuous, Jiangdong has not many talents, but the learning atmosphere is not as strong as the Central Plains." Wang Yu commented.

"Can we advance the time of the scientific expedition to next year or the year after?" Li Ming thought for a while and asked.

"If the enrollment of Huiji Academy is doubled, it will be possible! But this will delay next year's plan for the use of foreign troops! Wang Yu said very solemnly, after all, Li Ming's decision will determine the direction of next year's policy.

After all, there is only so much fiscal revenue, and whichever side has more and which side has less. Of course, internal affairs are related to internal stability and logistical supplies, but the military cannot be further strengthened, and no matter how strong domestic affairs are, they will eventually make a wedding dress for others.

"Three years, three more years...... The other princes don't need to worry about the problem of talent, and the result is that I need to have a headache for this! Li Ming suddenly became depressed.

"Why don't they have headaches? They're also having a headache with this! Seeing this, Wang Yu replied directly, "Don't look at the prestige of the imperial court, it seems that people have seen the hope of the Han Dynasty." In fact, now there are many gates and lords in the imperial court, dragging each other back, and as a result, the imperial court cannot go all out to attack the outside world. The issue of the rule of officials is also a big problem, but it is not good to investigate too much, otherwise no one will want to be an official in the court in the future.

Don't look at Yuan Valve's wave of his hand, there are a large number of people who take refuge, most of them are gate valve families, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu can only be regarded as the alliance leaders of the gate valve forces, and their control over their subordinates is even worse than that of the imperial court. Cao Cao couldn't get the recognition of the family because of his background, and his current position also put him in an embarrassing position than us.

Kong Rong can have such prestige because of his background, but this also limits him. As long as the court gives an order, I am afraid that he will also go to the court to join him, otherwise the reputation he has accumulated will also completely collapse.

Don't look at our Jiangdong every step is very careful, the lord's ability to control the family is above the other princes. In this regard, we can save a lot of worries. From a long-term point of view, let's just say that in ten years, our war potential will far exceed that of the major princes of China, and even the imperial court! ”

"It's true that we've spent several years working on this rectification." Jia Xu stepped forward, "It is precisely because of this that the situation in Jiangdong can truly become a game of chess, and it is up to the lord to decide how to fall." On the other hand, the larger the pattern of the princes of the world, the more stable the situation, and the more stable it is, the lower the possibility of being able to make changes, especially in the era of war. ”

There is a sentence he didn't say: If it weren't for this, there would be no need for him to stay, Jiangdong would not be suitable for hegemony in the first place.

It can be said that only a few people can really see the potential of Li Ming's side now. It is precisely because of the shallowness of vision that most of the talents are not optimistic about Jiangdong, and Li Ming lacks talents, and a big reason is here. As for a small number of smart people, they are burdened by fame, and it is not easy to take the initiative to take refuge, so Li Ming sighs here, saying that there is a lack of talents under his command.
