43 Examiners, Forming a Team (2)
Su Dongyang is a middle-aged Wei man with iron bones. He is not tall, less than 1.6 meters (the degree, balance, and quantity do not use the Qin system, which is difficult for readers to convert), but he exudes a sense of strength. As soon as he entered the door to greet his boss, he took the initiative to ask: "Su Dongyang meets Zuo Shuchang!" Zuo Shu grown-up! Although he knows what a good official and a good official are, he is just a farmer, he was captured in Shaoliangzhi, and he has never been an official, and he can't be an official. Job, please let the job be heavy* old business! The post guaranteed that Qin's grain output would catch up with Wei within three years. ”
"You're such a cheerful person!" Gongsun Ying smiled with satisfaction and said happily: "You are refreshing, and I can't help but be happy." Good! I promise you. However, you alone can't catch up with Wei in three years. Therefore, I will send you to the Six Kingdoms immediately, recruit troops and horses for yourself, and recruit agricultural teachers and various technicians to Qinlai to be masters, and the agricultural teachers are all your subordinates, and I have other arrangements for technicians. What conditions do you want, just mention! I have one request: no less than 500 people this year and no less than 1,000 people within three years. Can it be done? ”
Su Dongyang arched his hand and said firmly: "It must be done." I promise to bring back 500 people in three months. ”
"Good!" After Gongsun Ying's voice was good, his tone changed, and he said very sternly: "Find someone, I will be promoted to a knight." In the place you presided over within five years, the agricultural affairs caught up with Wei, and I promoted you to the fourth lord. If you can't do it, I'll punish you. ”
Su Dongyang trembled, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly returned: "Job-understand." ”
Gongsun Ying looked at him coldly, and after a while, he said lightly: "Go down!" ”
As soon as Su Dongyang's legs were weak, he took advantage of the situation to lie on the ground, and a habitual slave saw the slave owner's head and kowtowed. While knocking, he habitually committed servility: "The slave retires!" After saying that, he got up and was just about to retreat.
Who knows, he was shouted by Gongsun Marting: "Come back!" He was so frightened that he lay on the ground.
Gongsun Ying was furious when he saw it: "Get up! You are no longer a slave, you are an official of my Qin! It's for Gongsun Marting's subordinates! You have to straighten your waist and take care of it! From today onwards, when I see you kneeling and kowtowing, I will drive you back. ”
Su Dongyang, who got up after listening to the order, immediately straightened his waist, and a confidence in his heart allowed him to regain his long-lost dignity. He held his head high, his eyes widened, and he replied in a loud voice: "Zuo Shuchang!" Always keep in mind that the subordinate is an official of the Qin State and a subordinate of the chief of Zuo! ”
After Gongsun Ying heard this, he waved his hand: "Go down!" ”
After Su Dongyang bowed, he turned around and walked out with his head held high.
Gongsun Ying looked at Su Dongyang's back with a smile, and shouted coldly: "Zhang Ji, the second place in the assessment, come in!" ”
As Gongsun Marting's voice fell, the sound of footsteps reached his ears like a war drum. In the muffled sound of stepping on the ground, a big man of nearly one meter nine walked in. When he was nine steps away from the chairman, after the chest beating of a soldier, this strong man greeted him with a roar: "Zhang Ji, meet Zuo Shuchang!" The sound of the visit shook the room.
Gongsun Ying looked at the red-faced man with a duck egg-shaped face in front of him indifferently: this big man wore a shabby Jinxian crown of a middle-level officer, and crowned a pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the big eyes shot out of the essence of the aggressive. Under the eye is a rhinoplasty, the tip of which is as large as a bucket. Under the nose of the hanging bucket, there is a wide mouth with thick lips. The wide mouth is surrounded by a stiff stumbling mustache.
Gongsun Ying took the bamboo slip, pointed at Zhang Ji, and asked in a flat tone: "I have been captured for nine years, and I have managed General Bai's slaves and fiefs for seven years, and I am tired of appreciation, but I refuse the general's Jane pull, and I am the first to sign up to come to Zuo Shuchang, this!" Why? ”
Zhang Ji replied: "Although the chief of Zuo Shu was only one official, he gave the general the status of the head of Qian, and gave the general a place to give talents. If a man becomes a slave, he is no one. If you can't dominate the situation, your mother would rather die! ”
"Good!" After Gongsun Ying high-fived and praised, he immediately suppressed a trace of excitement on his face, looked at Zhang Ji's eyes, and said lightly: "General Bai praised you as a genius in the army, nine years ago, you were only a brigade commander, led two hundred and fifty light vehicles, and fought alone with the general's five thousand troops on the plain where there was no danger to rely on. The general lost thousands of men, and was only captured until you fell unconscious. In this battle, the general captured only about thirty seriously wounded enemies. None of your troops have surrendered. To this day, the general is still talking about this battle, which is the most tragic battle of the Qin and Wei armies. ”
When Gongsun Yan said this, he stopped, because he saw that the muscles on Zhang Ji's face were twitching slightly, and there was a crystal tear sliding in those tiger eyes. The pair of thick eyebrows and eye hair on the eyes are also shaking from time to time.
After he sighed lightly, he asked Zhang Ji slowly: "You, a genius in the army, have been changed to a civilian position here." Even General Bai was reluctant, saying that I was a tyrannical destroyer. Are you willing to give it up? ”
Zhang Ji's throat rolled a few times before he replied decisively: "Master Zuo Shu!" He is a concubine in the family and has experienced too many tragic battles! When he was young, he was chased and killed by his son-in-law, and the 500 troops led by him were killed. ”
"In the seven years of Pantian, with wooden and bronze tools, the per capita and per mu yield were the two companions of the whole Qin, reaching half of the national production of Wei." Gongsun Ying snatched Zhang Ji's words and said calmly: "How did you do it? ”
Zhang Ji replied casually: "The battle is different from Pantian, the appearance is different, and the inside is the same. Therefore, the subordinates can not only fight battles, but also be able to plan and govern the fields according to the strategy of planning and directing the campaign. His subordinates believe that as long as it is management or governance, everything is of the same quality, and everything is universal. ”
After hearing this, Gongsun Ying hit the case and said: "Zhang Ji! Let you plan the housemaster for the Zuo Shu Governor's Mansion. You will choose the ten officials you need, and you will choose three of the 15th to 30th of the deputies in this assessment, and report one to me for approval. Listen up! The task of planning the house is: to plan the strategy to be implemented in the whole Qin. Chongquan and Zheng counties are strategic key areas adjacent to Wei, where large tracts of land are idle. Where I want to use the army to reclaim the border, use immigrants to farm, and turn it into a barrier of Liyang and transform it into the granary of Qin. The first thing that is given to you is: you plan this within ten days. Not only should it be well planned, but it should also be detailed: how many immigrants are most suitable, how many people will be garrisoned with military reclamation, how to govern it, how many officials are needed, and so on. I will follow your plan and use this place as a trial area for the first order to try out the first order. Did you hear me clearly? ”
Such an important matter was handed over to Zhang Ji, how could he not be excited. Zhang Ji trembled excitedly, and couldn't help lying on the ground, giving Gongsun Ying the highest military salute in the army standing on one leg. After kneeling, Zhang Ji returned with a roar: "Zuo Shu is a national soldier to be on duty, and he will report it to his bones!" The position does not live up to the order of the left chief, and the order is handed over on time. ”
Gongsun Ying nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand: "Go down!" ”
After Zhang Ji saluted, he stepped back with a sneer. After calming the excitement in his heart, Gongsun Ying drank a glass of water, got up from the seat, and after spending a lap in the house, he returned to the table and picked up the bamboo slips, shouting: "The third place in the assessment, Zhao Xiang comes in!" ”
With the shouting, a chubby man with a round face, smiling eyes, a small nose, and a small mouth walked in outside the door, which was less than 1.7 meters long. The man had a big belly, and was as agile as a monkey, and when he came in, his face was full of natural laughter, which brought joy to the house. When he was ten steps away from Gongsun Marting, one of them bent down and bowed, and his belly was touched to his knees. After the ceremony, he greeted with joy: "Job, Zhao Xiang, meet Zuo Shuchang!" Chief Xie Zuo was relieved of the pain of prison under his post! ”
Gongsun Ying smiled coldly, picked up the bamboo slip and read: "Noble, doctor, Shaofu Ling's account book is in charge, Zhao Xiang." Chinese New Year's Eve. Oak Yang people. Three years ago, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison for years of maneuvering with account books and swallowing huge amounts of money and food from the government. Is that right? ”
Zhao Xiang had a natural smile on his face, even when he heard about his crime, he couldn't suppress it, but on his smiling face, the fat twitched. He said unconvinced: "Zuo Shuchang! So how can you blame your subordinates? Is it the chaos of the public government, and the huge wealth is forced in front of the office, as long as you stretch out your hand, even if you are a saint under the office, you can't resist this temptation? Besides, these chaos have been mentioned to the boss many times, but no one paid attention to them, and they took a little bit of it, and slowly got the money and food that they were shocked by when they had nothing. ”
Gongsun Ying snorted coldly: "Only then did you give money and food and won the reputation of a great good man?" ”
That Zhao Xiang was originally making a wry smile, but on his face was a happy smile that made Gongsun Ying almost laugh with frowning, squinting, and pursed lips. Gongsun Ying, who forcibly suppressed the laughter, listened to Zhao Xiang's defense: "My lord! When I saw so much money and food, I was afraid of it at home, and I couldn't use it up, so I gave it to those who lacked food and money. I squinted and thought of being a good person! I didn't expect that it was these people who shouted some kind people and were arrested. If it weren't for the fact that the reputation was too big and it alarmed Tsukasa Zai, just by checking the accounts, it would be impossible to bring the world's account books, and the loopholes in the job would not be found. ”
Gongsun Ying smiled slightly: "So, you are still the number one master of bookkeeping?" ”
Zhao Xiang straightened up, raised his head, and returned in a proud tone: "This is the only thing I know." ”
"Then I want you to be the head of the account book of the Zuo Shu Chief's Mansion, what if?" Gongsun Ying asked suddenly.
Zhao Xiang was startled, his body trembled, and after jumping in place in disbelief, he asked, "Big, big, adult!" Not afraid, not afraid, under office, under office, again, again, again, again? I don't dare to be employed, and I don't dare to be employed. ”
Gongsun Ying stared at this happy face, and said sternly with a straight face: "Don't be afraid." If you are greedy again, I will cut off your hands, and make your life worse than death! But, I believe you, having had a frightened experience, will not commit it again under the harsh system, with less chance of committing crimes, and under the threat of torture. ”
