"My subordinates have discussed with Mr. Berwyn, and there is one thing that must be Lao Cheng."

"What?"

"Smuggling salt."

"Selling smuggled salt?" Liu Mang was confused.

One of the purposes of sending Wu Yong and others to Hedong was to make salt. Because of this, Cheng was sent to bite the gold to accompany him. If you don't go to Hedong to engage in illegal salt, where else will you go?

"Young master, Yuan Benchu blocked the salt road, because Mr. Changsun had already prepared, although the price of salt in Taiyuan rose slightly, but there was no rush to buy and hoard. The price of salt in Taiyuan is stable, and it will not attract attention in a short period of time. If it doesn't rise for a long time, Yuan Benchu will definitely doubt it. ”

Liu Mang naturally understands this truth. However, the price of salt is related to the stability of Taiyuan, and the price of salt cannot be allowed to soar in order to dispel Yuan Shao's doubts.

Wu Yong explained: "Of course, the price of salt cannot be allowed to rise, but the outside world must also be given a suitable reason. Otherwise, it won't be long before Yuan Benchu discovers our intentions. Once he intervenes in the affairs of Hedong, it will be very disadvantageous. ”

"Oh." Liu Mang somewhat understood, "What Mr. Jia Liang means is to let Cheng bite Jin in the area at the junction of Hebei and Hebei to sell illicit salt with great fanfare." In this way, there is a reason why the price of salt in Taiyuan does not explode, and Yuan Shao will also ignore the attention to Hedong. ”

"Yes. Lao Cheng sold illicit salt in his early years, and he had more contact with Jizhou smuggling salt dealers, and only he came forward was the most suitable. ”

"Good. Let Lao Cheng return to his old business. Hedong, send someone else to you. Liu Mang thought about it and had an idea. Shubao rangers are in all directions, and they have many connections with the reckless heroes of Hedong. Let him go with you. ”

This is exactly what his subordinates mean. There are many green forests in the east of the river, and only with the help of their strength can they go deep into the salt pond and have a chance to get salt. ”

Liu Mang stood up and held Wu's hands. "The forces in Hedong are intricate. The grass is green and the forest is unusual, and Mr. Jia Liang must be more careful. ”

"Young master, rest assured, Wu Yong will do his best to solve my worries in Taiyuan."

"Oh, yes. Go to Hedong, bring a few pigeons, if there is any situation, it is more convenient to use pigeons to pass the news. ”

"Okay."

……

sent Wu Yong out, but found that Fan Zhongyan and Li Yan were already standing outside, waiting to report on the idea of selecting talents and recruiting soldiers.

These subordinates, Zhen Nyima is worthy of the talent of slaughter!

As soon as the deployment was made, they were in a hurry to come up with the implementation plan and detailed rules!

Liu Mang even wondered if they also had a PAD in their hands, and whether they had also opened a plug-in, otherwise, why would the work efficiency be so high?

No way, let's work overtime!

Liu Mang smiled bitterly, but what can be done? I'm the boss, and I ask for overtime, so I can't scold myself, right?

Fan and Li were instructed to organize talent selection and conscription.

Talent selection is a challenge. At the meeting, the most time-consuming discussion is the way of talent selection. In the end, a recommendation system that is more in line with the characteristics of the times was determined.

Fan Zhongyan and Li Yan are knowledgeable and hard-working. As long as the principles are determined and specific personnel selection methods are formulated, it is a trivial matter for them.

However, the purpose of selecting and promoting talents is to supplement the local governments, and although the official positions are not high, they must be responsible for handling specific affairs.

Li Hongzhang, the eldest grandson of the county government, is very capable, and there is absolutely no need to worry about the policies and strategies formulated.

However, it is up to the magistrates to implement these policy strategies. Magistrates are directly related to the people's livelihood, so they are called "parent officials". The level of their ability has a great impact.

Because talent selection is too important, Fan and Li drafted a plan and immediately rushed to report.

Fan Zhongyan personally drafted the plan, of course, there is nothing to say.

There are only two big principles: not sticking to one pattern and appointing people on the basis of merit.

In terms of details, it includes how to conduct primary elections in various places, how to organize reports, and finally organize the assessment by the county government.

In order to facilitate the organization, the two counties of Yanmen and Taiyuan organized recommendations respectively, but the final assessment was all concentrated in Jinyang.

The assessment method has been discussed in the previous meeting, and there are two parts: strategy theory and interview.

Policy discussion, by the government in combination with the current situation, the recommended person according to the topic of the policy.

Those who pass the policy will be interviewed. Liu Mang, eldest grandson Wuji, Fan Zhongyan, and Li Yan were interviewed together, and after the interview, they discussed and decided to hire candidates.

As for the arrangements after hiring, Fan Zhongyan was also very thoughtful. The hired personnel, according to their specialties, will be arranged to the corresponding county government office, starting with Cao Peng's subordinate officials. Regular inspections and assessments, according to political performance, enrich the local government offices.

Liu Mang has no objection to these specific measures.

He stressed, however, that this is the first time that the selection of talented people has been openly selected, and the propaganda must be done in place, so that people of insight in all counties and townships can have the opportunity to display their talents.

"This has been arranged." Fan Zhongyan said and turned to Li Yan.

Li Yanyu said: "The subordinates are going to arrange some small songs, and let them travel around the counties and townships, sing small songs, and spread the intentions of the county government all over the city and fields. ”

"Hah! Good! Sister Hong's art troupe came forward, great! ”

Liu Mang had already told the Red Lady and Qiao Ji to prepare some popular and easy-to-understand tunes. It is far better for folk artists to disseminate government policies than to post a notice.

"I asked the army to allocate a batch of horses to Sister Hong, and they must travel all over the city and countryside." Liu Mang was very excited, "Also, it's not easy to run around the country, let Sister Hong work harder, and publicize the conscription." ”

"That's exactly what I mean."

Li Yan is in charge of recruitment, and of course he also thinks about this layer.

Conscription is relatively simple. In Shanggu and Yanmen, recruits were recruited.

Fan Zhongyan and Li Yan came to think of a new idea, and they suggested that while selecting civilian talents, they should also recruit and select brave warriors to supplement the army.

Fan Zhongyan and Li Yan are not only talented people of Tianquan Wenqu, but also have the heart of being the shroud of the national horse leather, and they are great materials for literature and martial arts.

Although the martial arts skills cannot be compared with Gao Zhong Shichiro and others, it is precisely because they practice literature and do not abandon martial arts that they put forward the idea of selecting brave martial arts talents.

"Okay!"

This idea, Liu Mang is also a big praise!

During the New Year, in Jinyang City, set up a high competition ring, it's cool to think about!

Celebrate the New Year and watch the competition, how good!

"It's just, you must not kill anyone!"

……

Fan and Li are gone, midnight has passed, and no one will come to disturb them again.

Liu Mang returned to the backyard and was ready to rest.

In Wan'er's room, there is still a light on!

In the middle of the night, if you rush in, you will definitely scare the beauty.

Liu Mang deliberately made a little movement to make a reminder before knocking on the door gently.

There was a rustling of tidying up......

"Who?"

"Me."

The door opened gently, and Liu Mang finally realized how charming the beauty's "clever smile" was.

On several cases, there were some fine pieces of bamboo, Liu Mang picked up one and asked, "What are you busy with?" ”

"I won't tell you." Wan'er's little mouth pouted playfully.

"Waiting for me?"

"I won't tell you......" Wan'er's head was buried.

No more bad guys to bother!

Liu Mang let out a light cry of victory, and the beauty was in his arms.

With the eyesight he learned from Yan Qing and the precision he learned from Hua Rong, he threw the bamboo piece in his hand......

The oil lamp, struggling, went out......
