Chapter 492: Candidates

"Lu Lao thinks, after you are a scholar, who can enter the cabinet?" Bai Tu knew that Lu Kang had made up his mind, so he didn't persuade him anymore.

In fact, Lu Kang was also trying his best to support it before, and if he could, he even wanted to hold on until Lu Xun came back from Yizhou.

Counting Lu Xun's time in Yizhou, this year is the sixth year, a few months ago, as the governor of Guan Ning, he was already preparing to leave in March this year, return to his life, and then Lu Xun became the governor of Yizhou.

In the past five years, Guan Ning and Lu Xun have also made many achievements in Yizhou, not only built an important shipyard in Yizhou, reclaimed a large amount of wasteland, and under various measures to benefit the people, nearly 100,000 people have moved from Huiji, and the local Dongfeng people, now eighty percent of the tribes have been naturalized as "Chu people".

In particular, all the Yi Ji are all sinicized into city Ji, and the tribe will only gradually die out, or merge in.

This is not only suppressed by force, but even Guan Ning, as the governor, has always used force cautiously, and most of the cases where force is used are within the Dongfeng people, when the tribal leader brutally suppresses the clansmen, he will "act righteously".

The Yizhou model also provides the best teaching materials for the "civilization" of other regions.

Originally, after five years in office this time, Lu Kang hoped that Lu Xun could also come back together, but Lu Xun was not relieved to leave Yizhou, worried that he and Mr. Guan would leave together, and later people might misjudge and ruin this hard-won good situation.

After all, Yizhou is newly attached, and the last two "civilized" Yiji are still three years of Chu Li......

If the relationship between these tribal members and leaders is not properly handled, and the key points of further integration of the Donganfeng people are not accurately grasped, it is still very easy to get into trouble.

Therefore, Lu Xun specially applied to stay in office for another three years, during which time Bai Tu asked Bai Tu to transfer the newcomer to familiarize himself with the situation in the past, so as to make a smooth handover, and wrote a special letter to Lu Kang.

What can Lu Kang say to such a good ancestor who is so loyal to his duties?

"Zhou Gongjin has the wisdom of being assertive, and he can take this responsibility as the heart and the humerus." Lu Kang recommended Zhou Yu to Bai Tu.

At that time, Jiangdong Sanmei, the peak of Chu State's appearance, Bai Tu, Sun Ce, and Zhou Yu were all already in their years of establishment at this time, and Zhou Yu was also regarded as an "old minister" in terms of qualifications, even if he entered the cabinet, it was not abrupt.

However, Bai Tu shook his head and said, "Can Lu Lao still not know my third brother's temperament?" I've mentioned it to him before, but he prefers to lead troops outside the country rather than joining the cabinet. ”

To be precise, he led the troops outside with Sun Ce.

Therefore, Bai Tu really didn't want to transfer Zhou Yu back, otherwise what was the difference between asking for Sun Ce's brain directly?

When Lu Kang heard this, he shook his head helplessly, and then continued: "Gu Yuan sighed cautiously, compassionately for the people's interests, and did not take small profits and small merits as his ability, and made decisions in the center of righteousness. ”

"Yuan Si is square and steady, but it is longer than the political side, and it is inconvenient to enter the cabinet." After Bai Tu praised Gu Yong, he refused to recommend him.

Hearing Bai Tu's words, Lu Kang also consciously did not mention Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Wei Teng and others......

In fact, for Gu Yong and Zhang Zhao, Bai Tu can not be said to be reused, which one is not a member of the six ministries, or a political party?

Even if their understanding and acceptance of the new policy of Chu State are not very good, as long as they are willing to cooperate, Bai Tu will also be appointed, which can be regarded as a mutual run-in between the old and the new, not actively promoted, but still moving after being "driven out".

But......

The Scholar of the Imperial Court is more inclined to be the place to give ideas to the white picture!

Gu Yong and the others' ideas are a little conservative on the one hand, and they are too deeply involved in the interests of the scholar clan, which is not in line with this.

In contrast, Lu Kang is completely different.

Lu Kang is certainly one of the "leaders" of the Jiangdong family, and he will fight for the interests of the wealthy families in the palace, especially the interests of the Jiangdong family.

However, in essence, Lu Kang's "fighting" is to find a balance for Bai Tu and the Chu State, he feels that it is not balanced enough, he will directly react with Bai Tu, and will also try his best to calm the backlash of some big clans whose interests have been damaged when it is acceptable...... will not deceive the upper and lower levels, and damage the public and private thoughts.

This is not only a matter of character, but also because of Lu Kang's age and experience, which makes him have such an open-minded attitude, and the facts have also proved that Lu Kang's approach is the most wise.

Looking at the current scenery of the Chu State and the scenery of the Jiangdong clan, you can know that anyone can say that the previous "business" was a loss, and the Jiangdong Shi clan definitely has no face to say that it is a loss!

It's a pity that it's difficult to find out the second Lu Kang.

However, the current situation is not as urgent as when Lu Kang acted as the lubricant for Bai Tu and the Jiangdong Shi clan.

After all, the new policy of Chu State is already in the time of spitting dividends, that is, the most stable and most able to calm the differences, and the internal factions, from the Baitu family represented by Lu Bu, to the Nanjun clan, the Nanyang clan, the foreign scholar clan, and the "cold family" with an increasing proportion......

Isn't it the most comfortable for the Jiangdong clan?

After all, Lu Bu and a group of people are not very good at drilling, Jiangdong is basically the basic plate of Baitu's governance in the early years, and they have all eaten a full set of dividends, and at the same time, they ...... The other factions, these guys who eat meat and don't get beaten, have also been angry for a long time.

Although the state of Chu is at the moment of the rising sun, and the internal factional struggles are mainly based on "competition", at least there will be no vicious internal friction, but the Jiangdong clan is definitely the most active close to the wishes of the king of Chu now.

This can be clearly seen from the data of each ministry - among the scholars, the young children from Jiangdong participated in the imperial examination with the largest proportion, joined the navy, the pioneer army, and joined the overseas governor's palace the most, and they were also the most supportive of various workshop regulations.

"Yu Shangshu has a bright temperament, he is good and unyielding...... Yes, you can take on this role. Lu Kang said with a pout.

This is said to be the head of the book.

It can be seen from the title that Lu Kang's closeness to Yu is worse.

As a matter of fact...... Yu Tuo's closeness to no one is high!

Lu Kang also understands that this cabinet position must be Jiangdong, so speaking of which, a few people can go as far as Huainan, and their interests are close to those of the Jiangdong Shi clan.

There's nothing to hide, just him and Bai Tu are playing against each other at this time, so there's no need to talk so much.

The Yu family is an old family in Jiangdong, and it has been a wang family since the pre-Qin period, but in the chaotic times at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Yu family accurately stood in line with Xiang Yu, and even Yu Ji was from this Yu family, so it was very suppressed in the early Han Dynasty, so it failed to rank among the four surnames in Jiangdong.

Later, when Baitu first established the Sixth Ministry, at that time, a minister was still called "Division", which attracted the most attention from the big clans, and it was also the "household department" that needed the cooperation of the big clans the most, and the slightest carelessness would cause internal contradictions.

And at that time, the deputy of the household department was Yu Xuan......

It was also from that time that Lu Kang and the other families understood that Yu Fu had jumped from the nest of the Jiangdong Shi clan to Bai Tu's side for unknown reasons - after all, I also knew that the household department was the key to the new strategy, and the chief officials were already Lu Kang, and the deputy would definitely be Bai Tu's henchmen.

Hitherto......

Including Lu Kang and many Yu family members, they still don't understand why Yu Chuan became Bai Tu's henchman "for no reason".

Under the circumstances at that time, the differences in interests between Bai Tu and the Jiangdong clan were much more acute than now, after all, at that time, they were to be "skinned and blooded" to the general's mansion for primitive accumulation.

And you must know that Yu Fu was the "king of the previous generation" in Jiangdong before Youheng......

Of course, Yu Xuan's intimidation is often just unforgiving, not a pure bar.

Therefore, Yu is in the major Jiangdong families, and his popularity can only be said to be average, but ...... No one has ever seen Yu turn over the white map!

Even if he has any opinions, as long as there are outsiders, Yu Tuo will not speak with a bitter face, and will find Bai Tu alone to advise him afterwards.

At that time, the "abnormality" of Yu Flip was also one of the focuses of many children of the Jiangdong family, and many old people of the Yu family also complained about Yu Flip.

But now......

The Jiangdong clan has long been a strong supporter of the New Deal, and Yu Chuan is already a well-known person in the Yu clan, not just an outstanding junior.

Lu Kang's position in the household department had already stepped down, and Yu Fu also became a regular at that time.

The achievements of the household department are now obvious to all, even if this achievement, the major families don't want to admit it......

There are four government offices under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Households, namely the Commercial Office, the Finance Department, the Tax Office, and the Household Registration Office.

Needless to say, the first one is hated by the envoys of other princes, negotiating official transaction prices externally, and regulating commercial behavior internally.

And the Finance Department ...... It is usually the most scolded by other government officials behind their backs, and they are also the most praised by other government officials on the surface - the allocation of funds to various departments is that they are responsible for reviewing and approving them.

After all, the Department of Commerce can find out the high price, in fact, it depends more on the craftsmanship of the Ministry of Industry and the quality of the Ministry of Civil Affairs as the "confidence".

However, the tax revenue of the tax department, Chu State has almost doubled every year, and Yu has turned in this regard, but he is selfless, and even combined with the income of his own workshop, he feels that the tax is low, and he will specially reflect it with Baitu.

The Registrar Office is even more powerful......

Yu Fu even dared to say that now in the entire Chu country, if Shanyue and Wuxi are not counted, there are less than two points (2%) of the unregistered households, which can be described as unprecedented!

Shanyue and Wuxi Manna are historical problems, and they are still gradually being surveyed, and the naturalization rate is gradually increasing, but it will take time.

And the hidden households in other places, even when they are centralized and peaceful, have not been so few!

It can even be said that no one is registered and no land is not in the household.

Of course, it is the policy reason of the Chu State, but if it were not for Yu Xuan's more serious work, and even repeatedly took the initiative to ask for a joint investigation with the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the living space of the "black workshop" would not have been suppressed to such a low level, making all families "vomit" out of their homes.

When it came to Yu Translation, Bai Tu also thought about it more, and then asked Lu Kang: "Zhong Xiang is really qualified for Lu Lao's position?" ”

Although listening to the tone, this is the most questioning one of Bai Tu, but ...... Lu Kang understood that this was also Bai Tu really thinking about Yu Translation, not like just a kind word to Gu Yong just now.

"Although Yu Shangshu is a little stubborn, he has his own charter, and he ...... The king doesn't have to worry about his prestige among the Jiangdong clan. Lu Kang has already spoken very frankly.

The current Jiangdong clan has eaten enough dividends, and it is impossible to further expand the "proportion", and it is the key to maintain the current scale as much as possible.

"That'...... In the future, I will also ask Lu Lao to Zhong Xiang, and if Lu Lao has any requests and suggestions, he can also tell me at any time. "Bai Tu's reluctance is not fake.

"The king can rest assured, whether the old ministers are in the court or in the opposition, they will all do their best for the Chu State......"

At the same time, Lu Kang's eyes also flickered slightly-what he wanted, he did have it, especially if he was not usually easy to speak, and then he could open his mouth while he was in the book!
