Chapter 259: Recruiting Talents

When the news spread, everyone who was interested knew that Liu Feng was going to live in Shanyin and not leave, and really fulfill his duties as a taishou.

Yongning Chang and Hou Guanchang are naturally not used, except for these two places, the other counties are not too far away, and Zhang'an, Taimo and Wushu are a little farther away, and in a few days, the county magistrates and county orders from all over the country have arrived one after another.

As a taishou, of course Liu Feng would not let them gather together, but in an orderly manner, together with Xun You, one by one, and half a month later, he inspected these people, and he felt a little bottom in his heart.

Speaking of which, this is the first time he has met officials from his subordinate counties since he joined the council for more than a year.

"Gongda, what do you think? How many of these people can be of use to me? After meeting these people, Liu Feng and Xun You discussed.

Coupled with the Shanyin Order, none of the 12 county orders and county magistrates has been heard of by Liu Feng. However, according to Xun You's observations, these people are all at the 4th to 5th level, which is enough to govern a county.

"Except for a few of them, they can be used almost all. For example, the San'in Order, even if it has a 5th order, it can't be used greatly. Xun Yu said.

"That's right, that person has served as a county magistrate for several years, and has experienced several terms of Taishou, and he is caught between the Sanyin clan and the Taishou Mansion, which is too slippery." Liu Feng agreed.

In fact, it is the same as being an official in modern times, even if the status of each district head in the urban area is higher than that of the county magistrate in the county, it is much more difficult to be an official in the urban area than in the county.

San'in is the seat of the county, the seat of the Taishou Mansion, the most prosperous place in a county, in addition to the boss of the Taishou, there is also the pressure of the big family, which needs to be borne by the San'in Order. After a long time, no matter how strong a person is, he can't stand it, and he doesn't want to be lonely and retreat, so he can only meet the source left and right.

"It's okay to say that the counties in the south are only plagued by local wealthy families, but these nearby counties are all relatively prosperous places in Huiji, in addition to the local wealthy families, they also have close ties with the four major families, if you want to move them, you have to take into account the attitude of the four major families." Xun You said again.

"Gongda has something to say." Liu Feng said.

"Well, I'll just say it below. First of all, we must firmly control the government in our hands, and the current county officials and the Cao supervisors are too incompetent, so they all have to be replaced. This is within the power and responsibility of Taishou, and no one else can say anything. Xun Yu said.

"Of course, this will offend a large number of people in Huiji, so it is necessary for Lord Taishou to win over another group of people. The four major families of Huiji can't be offended by all, and it's best to win them over and achieve control over the localities. For this reason, it is necessary for Taishou-sama to give up some of his interests. ”

"Yes, except for the ownership of the army, I can make concessions." Liu Feng thought for a while and said.

"That's good, but we don't want to blindly back down, the four major families, it's best to come up with one as a model to play a deterrent role, this is what Lord Taishou needs to consider in the future." Xun You said.

"The Yu family is the first to rule out, and I am about to summon the son of the prime minister of Yu to take office; Sheng Xiaozhang is now too shou in Wu County, and he has also dealt with him, so he is too familiar and difficult to do; There are also the Zhou family and the Wei family, and Gongda will only consider these two in the future. Liu Feng immediately gave an answer.

"In addition to the four major families, there are some families in Huiji that are not much weaker than them, which is also to be treated differently. Therefore, Lord Taishou needs to recruit talents now, so that they can complete the rule of the place for the adults. Xun Yu finally said.

"Okay, I'll go to the He family tomorrow and call the heirs of the He family to appoint them first. In the past few years, the Huiji family has dealt with the He family the most. Liu Feng stood up excitedly.

He Qi has been studying at home for four years since the end of the Yellow Turban Uprising. The young boy at the beginning is now an adult, and he takes the word Gongmiao.

"Mr. He, since the next appointment of the Huiji Taishou, I have rarely been in San'in, and this is the first time I have visited, please forgive me." In the lobby of the He family, Liu Feng said to He Fu.

"There are many official affairs, and the old decay can understand. I don't know what Lord Taishou is doing here today? He Fu asked.

"It's not a secret, this official wants to govern the Huiji, but his subordinates are lacking in talents, so I specially ask your son to go out of the mountain to assist. Of course, the rest of the He family's heirs, if they wish, can also be together. Liu Feng pleaded.

"This, the old man needs to think about it, discuss it with the family, and he will reply tomorrow, please forgive me." He Fu said.

"It's okay, it's a big deal, and you should be cautious. I will say goodbye under the next and come back tomorrow. Liu Feng got up and left.

"Qi'er, what do you think?" In the study, He Fu asked his newly grown son.

"I can't wait for a long time, calm down and study for a few years, the child can't wait to try his ability." He Qi said excitedly.

He knew that the strength of this alien Taishou was not what it seemed.

"You have been with him for nearly a year, you should know that this Taishou Lord is not like the previous ones, he is an alien, he values interests the most, and he will inevitably aim to actually control the Huiji, and it is inevitable to have grudges with the major families. You've figured it out. He Fu reminded.

Of course, the child knows that the troubled times have come, and Dong Zhuo's blatant abolition of the emperor has caused the dissatisfaction of the princes in the court. If we have the strength of our own, it is not impossible to become local princes. But it's a pity that we don't have it, so we can only choose one to follow, and Liu Taishou is a good candidate. He Qi analyzed.

"In troubled times, strength is the most important thing. If Liu Taishou just came to be a Taishou, he might not be able to do anything to these people, but in addition to being a Taishou, he is also an alien lord and has a small city. Especially in the few years of Yongning, he trained hundreds of thousands of troops and powerful generals, even compared to the county town. Coupled with the name of righteousness, it is not a problem at all to have a mere meeting. ”

"The major families of Huiji are very famous in the local area, but their strength is based on wealth, and there are many naval troops in the private army.

"Moreover, the major families of Huiji are relatively scattered and not united, so it is easy for people to find opportunities to break each one. For example, children like them have already planned how to take refuge in the past, and how they can work together to deal with their parents. ”

"Now is the most difficult time for Taishou-sama, so it's just right to throw it over. If he waits until he cleans things up, it will be too late. He explained his reasons to his father.

"Okay, you just do what you want! Now that you have grown up, you have surpassed being a father, the He family, and I will hand it over to you in the future. He Fu looked at his son with satisfaction.

……

Early the next morning, He Qi came directly to the door, expressed his willingness to go out, and brought a group of children of the He family.

As the only heir of the He family's patriarch, he has already explained that after joining the company, if they make a big mistake in their honest work, no one can protect them.

"Gongmiao, I'm glad you can come, I can finally relax." In the Taishou Mansion, Liu Feng looked at He Qi happily.

"A few years ago, I already had the heart to join the adult's command, and in the past few years, I have studied behind closed doors and gained a little, so I dared to go out to apply." In a few years, He Qi has grown a lot, and his words are finally no longer so domineering.

"A few years ago, if you were here, I didn't have a good place to go. I remember that you like the military, so you should first serve as a military commander in the army. Liu Feng said, "Don't be too low, you have a task." ”

"Lord Taishou, please command."

"You will have a boss and a lieutenant, and three military commanders. In this army you are in, the officers and officers are basically all occupied by the major families. My order to you is that within 10 days, you will be completely under your command, and it is best to make meritorious deeds, and then you will have a reason to be promoted to captain, and within 1 month, you will be in control of these 200,000 troops. I don't care what to do, as long as you do it, when the time comes, let you become the county magistrate and take charge of a place. Liu Feng arranged, "Is there a problem?" ”

"Can you do anything?" He Qi asked.

"As long as you have a valid reason, it doesn't matter if you just weed out all these people." Liu Feng said with a smile, "Also, I am ready to recommend you as filial piety, which can be regarded as welcoming you to join." ”

According to the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", 200,000 people can recommend a filial piety every year, and on average, there are only one or two places in a county, and the power is in the hands of Taishou. In the game, Huiji County can only recommend one per year. Last year's opportunity was wasted by his predecessor, and this was the first time Liu Feng recommended him as an official.

"Thank you, my lord, my subordinates will do their best to live up to your trust." He Qi is still young, and he is happy to hear the words.

In fact, the filial piety of the late Han Dynasty has become a tool for the family to enter the family, and it basically has nothing to do with the Han family. For example, when Sun Quan was 15 years old, his brother had already occupied Jiangdong.

Of course, it doesn't mean that all of them are like this, like Zhu Jun was born poor, but relatively speaking, there are very few opportunities for poor families.

"Gongda, how do you feel?" After He Qi left, Liu Feng asked Xun Youdao.

"Very good, the future warrior, still a little young." Xun You said.

"Yes, there is no shortage of generals under my command now, but there are very few talents who can assist the government, so I want to recruit another one." Liu Feng smiled and took out a recruitment document.

"Yu Flip?" Xun You looked up and caught a glimpse of the name among them.
