Chapter 371: Appointment of Talents

"Back to the envoy! Xiao Min transported the ship to the Navy Wharf early this morning, but was refused to receive by the head of the Navy Wharf, Xiao Min said the name of the envoy, but it was still useless, so Xiao Min had to inquire everywhere, found here, and met Xu Junshi, only to let Xiao Min enter the courtyard to wait! Cai Meng briefly recounted the whole process from beginning to end. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After finishing speaking, Cai Meng took out thirty taels of silver from his arms, offered them with both hands, and explained: "Xiaomin collected a total of two hundred and ten taels of silver, and after bargaining, he bought ten boats for one hundred and eighty taels, this is the remaining thirty taels of silver, please make you check it!" ”

In order to test Cai Meng's emergency response ability, he deliberately did not tell the generals of the naval dock about Cai Meng, which was not only a test for Cai Meng, but also a test for the generals of the naval dock.

Fortunately, the current results are very satisfactory to Feng Yao.

"Hehe, you don't have to pay me back these thirty taels of silver, just take it as my reward for you!" Feng Yao smiled.

Cai Meng was overjoyed and kowtowed to thanks.

Feng Yao didn't refuse, and when he finished knocking, he said, "Cai Meng, you are indeed a talented person, and now I need someone to manage those ships for me!" Would you like to serve me? ”

Cai Meng was stunned when he heard the sound, and then he was overjoyed, kowtowed several times on the ground, and said in a loud voice: "Yes!" Willing! The small people are willing to serve the envoy! ”

When Xu Shu and the others in the conference hall saw this scene, they all had smiles on their faces, and Xu Shu didn't stop stroking his beard and smiling silently.

After Cai Meng kowtowed, he was a little overwhelmed, he was just an ordinary civilian, he didn't understand these etiquettes, and he was worried that if he didn't do it well, it would make Feng Yao angry, so he didn't dare to get up where he knelt.

Seeing this, Feng Yao already understood Cai Meng's situation, and showed Yang Wu next to him, Yang Wu understood, walked down from the table, and whispered in Cai Meng's ear: "Brother Cai, congratulations, but in the future, you can no longer call the lord a king, you have to change the title of lord, and you should call yourself a subordinate, understand?" ”

Cai Meng nodded again and again, glanced at Yang Wu gratefully, and arched his hand upwards: "Lord!" The subordinates have seen the lord!! ”

Feng Yao nodded, ordered Cai Meng to get up, and stood behind Xu Shu and the others.

Glancing at everyone, Feng Yao had already made a decision, and after two days of further observation of Jian Yong and Man Chong, he already had a suitable arrangement.

"Xu Shu! Come forward and listen to the seal! Feng Yao said loudly.

Xu Shu hurriedly stepped forward and stood with his hands over.

Feng Yao had a solemn expression and a serious tone.

"Xu Shu, since you followed me, you have always assisted me with a false position, and now our territory is getting bigger and bigger, and it is inconvenient to act in a false position, I will now make you a military general!"

Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, and some didn't understand what position this military division lieutenant general was, so he didn't immediately agree, but asked: "Lord, what is the responsibility of this military division lieutenant?" How is it different from the position of military advisor? ”

Feng Yao smiled slightly, this position has indeed not appeared yet, but this position is like tailor-made for Xu Shu, that is, he is a military advisor and a Zhonglang general, that is, he can stay by Feng Yao's side, give advice to Feng Yao, and he can lead the troops to fight in the name of Zhonglang General!

Although this position was newly created by Feng Yao and has not yet been recognized by the imperial court, Feng Yao is confident that as long as he submits it, he will definitely be recognized, even if he does not recognize it, it doesn't matter, as long as he recognizes this position.

"Yuan Zhi, although you can rest assured, your responsibilities have not changed much, but you have more military power, and you don't need to lead the troops out, you are still following me!" Feng Yaodao.

Xu Shu accepted the appointment with confidence, he didn't want to pursue a higher official position, he just wanted to try his best to assist Feng Yao, and he could be by Feng Yao's side at any time to give him advice.

"Jian Yong!" Feng Yao said again.

"Lord!" Jian Yong was also in good spirits and stepped forward to clench his fists.

"I'll make you a don't drive and help me manage all the things in the state!" Feng Yao said.

Jian Yong is overjoyed, this is not to be done, it is the most noble position in the civil service, except that he has no military power, it is equivalent to the status of a state assassin, and he is just a surrendered general who has just surrendered!

"Thank you for the grace of the lord's appreciation, Yongbi will do his best and share the worries of the lord!" Jian Yong knelt down to thank him and said loudly.

Feng Yao called Man Zhong again, and said: "Man Chong, I will make you the general of the pawn farmer, I hope you can clear all obstacles for the matter of Tuntian as you said!" ”

With a straight face, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Lord, my subordinates will not disappoint you!" ”

After appointing Xu Shu, Jian Yong, and Man Chong to official positions, Feng Yao was very happy to see the excitement of everyone eager to try, and ordered Jian Yong and Man Chong to take office immediately.

The two of them each took the seal letter and left, Feng Yao called Cai Meng forward and said: "I now have an important task for you to complete, you go and recruit a hundred fishermen who can fish, and then buy ten boats, five people per boat, these hundred fishermen are under your management, and they are paid on time every month, but they are not fishing but raising fish!" ”

Then Feng Yao said his request again, but he didn't reveal too much, only told Cai Meng that the fishermen he recruited were under his full control, and the required expenses only needed to be reported and collected in the county government, and the fishermen's residences were about to start construction, which would be built near the west city gate.

If Cai Meng can complete this step of the task and properly manage the 100 fishermen, Feng Yao will once again promote Cai Meng's status and assign the next task.

Cai Meng understood, his eyes were full of excitement, and he took the order.

Xu Shu finally spoke at this time: "Lord, how to deal with the affairs of the 500,000 soldiers and civilians outside the city?" ”

"Yuan Zhi, I have already thought about it, and I have decided to adopt your two suggestions at the same time, not only to expand Pingyu City again, but also to build two new new cities!!" Feng Yaodao.

Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, his hand holding his beard stopped suddenly, looked at Feng Yao, and said in shock: "Lord, are you going to build Pingyu City into a city?" ”

Feng Yao laughed and said, "Those who know me, so do the military advisors!" ”

Xu Shu was excited when he heard this, and he also nodded with a smile.

Pingyu City originally had a population of more than 100,000, plus the 500,000 soldiers and civilians who moved here this time, it has soared to more than 600,000, and if you count the more than 200,000 troops of the superior Feng Yao, the total population has surged to nearly one million!! It's just that now almost all of the army is fighting outside, and if all of them are withdrawn, the army will not even have a camp for the troops, and can only camp in the field!

This is not the key, according to Feng Yao's plan, it is to bring the emperor to his own territory, when the civil and military officials, the forbidden army plus the three palaces and six courtyards of the emperor, if they see the crowded population of Pingyu, they will definitely oppose it vigorously, if they just welcome the emperor and do not control the emperor on their own territory, this is not to coerce the Son of Heaven and order the princes, but to find a scourge to come back!
