On the way home, Zhuojun Taishou Cui Qian's mood still couldn't be calm. He didn't expect that he would have the day to regain control of the military, and he didn't expect Li Xu to hand over five thousand soldiers and horses and a county of land to himself without hesitation. Recalling the mistakes his family made when Li Xu first arrived, he felt more and more ashamed. Someone else is in charge of Boling, and the Cui family must be the focus of suppression at this moment. Only Li Xu, only this Li Xu, who usually looks arrogant but is rarely sloppy at critical moments, can only use his energy after he makes a mistake. And once he has some credit, he will not hesitate to give him a promotion.

He was the first local official in the Boling Army to take charge of civil and military affairs. Although he had to leave the decision-making core for a short time, he had more rights and responsibilities than almost all the other brothers around Li Xu. It can even be said that Li Xu put the future of the Boling Army in his hands. If he Cui Qian can't take the first step to expand the territory for the brothers, the development of the six counties of Boling will come to an end. On the contrary, if he, Cui Qian, takes this step out of the way, the future of the Boling Army will be limitless.

"Brother Cui's task is arduous!" Zhang Jiuyi rode a horse to catch up from behind and walked side by side with Cui Qian. The other core figures in the army all came to Boling with Li Xu to take up their posts, so the mansions were concentrated around the General's Mansion. Only he and Cui Qian's home was originally located in the best area of Feng Shui in Boling City, that is, the gathering area of the local noble family.

"No matter how difficult it is, I can only go in and out. That's the heel of our six counties. If you want to develop in the future, you must stand firm. Otherwise, it really has to be like what the general said, it won't be long before even Dou Jiande dares to bully him! Cui Qian slowed down his horse a little and explained to Zhang Jiuyi with a smile.

Recently, the situation has changed dramatically, and both of them have a lot of emotion in their hearts. But because of the sensitivity of their location, they instinctively kept their distance from each other.

There are only five and a half counties under Li Xu's rule, of which Boling and Shanggu are relatively prosperous. If the two most prosperous county guards collude with each other, it will seriously threaten the position of the governor of the six counties. Therefore, even if Li Xu does not suspect that the two are plotting against each other, Zhang, Cui and their family will try to avoid leaving a handle on people. But today, Cui Qian and Zhang Jiuyi have temporarily put aside the usual taboos. Their hearts are still warmed by the scene just now, and they urgently need someone to share their feelings.

"Yes, if we are compared by Dou Jiande, there is really no place for our faces. He turned out to be just a minion under Gao Shida, and he couldn't even compare to the little finger of our general! Zhang Jiuyi shook his head lightly, his face full of emotion.

The times make heroes. In troubled times, the one who has soldiers and swords is the king. It doesn't matter if it turned out to be a ploughman or a chauffeur. On the contrary, it is the home of hairpins, which turns around and becomes fish on someone else's board. You can't struggle when the knife hits your body, otherwise you will be chopped harder and worse.

"Don't look down on his origins. The people surnamed Dou are no less talented than us here. Just that Cheng someone's vision and mind can compare many people on our side. If you didn't know his details, who would have thought that he was a thief! When it comes to the development of Dou Jiajun, Cui Qian is also full of emotion. It was precisely because of the rapid rise of this rival that it contributed to the unprecedented unity within the six counties. If it weren't for Dou Jiande and the letter from the county magistrate under his command, I really don't know if everyone would have wholeheartedly supported Li Xu's new policy.

"No matter how broad-minded he is, he can't compare to our general!" Zhang Jiuyi quietly led the topic to what he wanted to express, "To be honest, I really didn't expect you to dare to take the initiative to ask for help today." I didn't expect the general to agree to you without blinking an eye! ”

Looking back at the General's Mansion that had disappeared into the night, Cui Qian smiled, "I also gambled once." I believe in the heart and personality of the great general! ”

"I think at the beginning, we really saw the wrong general!"

"It's not that the old people in our family are wrong, it's that the world has changed!" Cui Qian looked back again and lowered his voice in response. "The old men of our family planned to get rid of him, but they were just bullying him with a shallow foundation. In fact, the foundation that those of us have always valued may not be as solid as imagined. People respect us, but they respect the things that our ancestors did. And now in this world, if you don't have the ability yourself, it's like a pig sleeping on a pile of gold. No matter how thick the shadow of the ancestors is, sooner or later there will be a moment when it will be squandered! ”

With that, he raised his head and looked up at the stars in the sky. "And the people who really have the ability are different. They stand on a high mountain, and their outstretched hands can hook the sky. If you want to pick any star, just reach out and pick it. There are no restrictions, and there is no need to look at anyone's face! ”

"That's why you took the initiative to ask for help today?" Zhang Jiuyi smiled, knowing who the other party was capable of, and deliberately asked the bottom of it.

Cui Qian put away his smile and nodded solemnly. "Can the Ninth Prince remember an old saying? In troubled times, not only the monarch chooses the minister, but the minister is also ready to choose the monarch at any time! ”

"Retreat is true, and Zhang feels the same way today." Zhang Jiuyi, who has always been brave in hiding clumsiness, nodded lightly, "I look at the heroes of the world, and there are almost no handsome people like our generals who have been through a hundred battles and have been on the battlefield for several years. What is rare is that he can still be humble and not arrogant or boring. Even if you are touched for a while, you can let people finish speaking. It can even tolerate those who temporarily disagree with their own political views. Ancestors once said that how broad a person's heart is, how great his achievements are. If the general can include all the heroes of our six counties, he will be able to gain a firm foothold in the six counties. If he can tolerate the whole world in the future, we people can also reproduce the glory of our ancestors! ”

The glory of the ancestors, this is probably instilled in every son of a wealthy family from birth. So every time it is mentioned, it will make people's blood boil. But Cui Qian's blood was not ignited by Zhang Jiuyi's words, "The reason why I am desperate to plan for the backbone is not only because I am optimistic about his future!" Smiling and shaking his head, he whispered. As someone who has experienced ups and downs, he truly understands how valuable the opportunity is in front of him.

"I know this, he is a man with clear grievances!" Zhang Jiuyi waved his hand and made a clear appearance.

"It's not just because he knew that several families wanted to push me as the lord of Boling, but he was still able to let me live." Cui Qian continued to shake his head, "I follow him because he is a person who can not only share weal and evil, but also share wealth and prosperity. In this world, there are many heroes who can do the former. But if you remember what I said today, those who can share wealth and prosperity can be counted in one slap! ”

General Lee is a man who can share hardships and hardships, and he can also be rich. Although his future prospects are uncertain at the moment. Cui Qian was not the only one who came to this conclusion, when the news of the twelve-character governing policy and the new Zhuojun Taishou candidate spread all over the streets and alleys, almost most of the heroes of the six counties recognized this truth.

His ability to share hardships is reflected in his past attitude towards benefactors such as Li Yuan and Zhang Xutuo, as well as his tolerance for his brothers. And his ability to share wealth and prosperity is reflected in his willingness to put the benefits that have been received and the benefits that have not yet been received on the bright side and share them openly and honestly with everyone. As for whether these outstanding performances were deliberately made for everyone to see, or out of nature, no one wants to delve into it. A man who pays attention to rules, knows how to self-control and accommodates the opinions of others is always more reassuring than those who insist on going their own way and only tolerate their own lone husband in their hearts. At least, when everyone is working for him, they don't have to worry about being stabbed in the back by him.

And the reward that everyone gave Li Xu was bags of rice grain, piles of copper coins and high confidence and enthusiasm. In just half a month, three of the six grades, five of the seven grades and more than 20 of the eight grades were bought by the rich family. The rest are like Zheng Jiupin Ru Lin Lang, and from the Jiupin General Shilang, a small official hat that can only be exchanged for a few hundred stone grains, it is even sold to a dumbfounded quantity. Many people don't care how big the job they buy is, and after transporting the food to the designated place, they turn around and leave with a notice with their name written on it. All they want is an identity, or rather, what they dream of is the government's recognition of the fact that they are not half a head shorter than the children of traditional wealthy families.

What is more popular with the people than the sale of official beards is the martial order. After all, many people have no food at home these days, and the only thing they can sell is their courage and strength. And the martial order of the Grand Governor of Boling gave them a more fair price. The decapitation of the third level can be transferred to the first level, and the third level of the honor can be promoted to the first level. One turn is five acres of land plus one silk, and the first-class officer is fifty acres of land, which is equivalent to an ordinary soldier who kills a total of nine enemies in many battles and survives on his own, he can get sixty-five acres of land and three silks. Although this amount of land and wealth does not guarantee that he will become rich, at least it can ensure that he and his family will always have food and clothing.

Moreover, with wealth comes the respect of others, civil and military officials can be bought and sold, but military positions are only granted and not sold. is also a nine-grade sesame official, the person with a horizontal knife pinned to his waist meets the person with a soft hat on his head, and the chin of the knife holder can be lifted to the sky!

Because, they have wealth not by wealth, not by the shadow of their ancestors. They rely on themselves.

Alcoholic's note: About what happened to Qin and Luo, I wrote it at the end of the sixth volume. Fainted, why didn't you pay attention. At first, everyone thought that Li Xu was dead, but Pei Renji took the opportunity to cut off the head of Xiao Jianjun and led the children of Qi County to rebel. At that time, Qin and Luo had no other choice than defecting to Li Mi!
