Chapter 48 System Marketplace

Zhang Yi's idea of buying people is not human trafficking, he wants to recruit some displaced people who have fled the famine, and the purpose is to expand the armament. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Now Zhang Yi has no other armed forces except for two thousand city guards and one thousand private soldiers, Zhang Yi is now desperate to expand the power in his hands, but expanding the power in his hands requires not only people, but also money, food and ordnance, these things need people to do it, and Zhang Yi's subordinates are now most lacking people.

Although the military general Zhang Yi has Huang Zhong, Gao Shun and Wen Ping, and they are all famous generals, they are still not many on the whole, and the strategist Zhang Yi has only one Sima Wei, and there is also a half-hanger, An Changshi, whose intelligence value is only 68, Zhang Yi feels powerless to do many things.

"Talent, talent," shook his head with a wry smile, Zhang Yi muttered to himself: "Who said that only the 31st century is the most lacking of talents, and now the most lacking is still talent, how can we recruit talents?" ā€

Listening to Zhang Yi's words, An Changshi was stunned for a moment, and he subconsciously asked, "Lord, what did you say?" ā€

"Oh," Zhang Yi, who was stunned by An Changshi, came back to his senses: "It's nothing, I just sigh that it is easy to get a thousand troops and it is difficult to find a general, if only I could search for more talents." ā€

"This ......" An Changshi opened his mouth and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Why don't you go and find the children of the two great scholar clans and let them ......"

In the Han Dynasty, there was no imperial examination for the selection of officials, and there were usually two formal selection methods, one was that after the children of the scholar clan reached a certain age, the elders of the clan recommended and then entered the official ranks, and the other was the filial piety and honesty system, starting from the township to Xian, the county and the state, and finally the central government to recommend talents, and the first standard of selection was filial piety to the elders, honesty and fairness.

At the beginning, Empress Lu also used this method, but it was the period when it was widely promoted or the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but after the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it became a situation where the identity background was clean and the money could be an official.

Zhang Yi didn't wait for An Changshi to finish speaking, then waved his hand to interrupt him.

"It's useless to look for them," Zhang Yi shook his head, was silent for a while and said: "Let's use filial piety and honesty, when you meet those county magistrates, you immediately start to ask around, the focus is on those poor children, understand?" ā€

"No."

After arching his hand to Zhang Yi, An Changshi began to help Zhang Yi count the gold nuggets.

In the end, Zhang Yi and An Changshi counted the total amount of all gold and silver utensils, the total amount of gold and loose gold is about 24,000 taels, the total amount of silver and loose silver is about 6,000 taels, there are 28 pieces of gold, weighing about 80 taels, but the value of gold can not be measured by its weight, but also calculated by its craftsmanship and other aspects, the total number of silver objects is 13 pieces, and there are 26 pieces of jade, and these gold, silver and jade objects are worth about 2,000 taels according to An Changshi's valuation.

In addition to these ready-made gold, silver and jade objects, there is also a palm-sized box in those seven boxes, which are all field deeds, Zhang Yi roughly calculated that there are about 100 tilts, according to An Changshi's words, almost the entire land around Anyi City is Chen Yu's.

"That's not right," Zhang Yi frowned after listening to An Changshi's words: "If you say so, this money is not right." ā€

If Chen Yu had so much land, he should have collected a lot of tenant rent over the years, and there should have been a lot of grain, even if he sold the grain, he should have money, but Zhang Yi seized neither the grain nor the money matched this amount, and he now suspected that Chen Yu deliberately concealed some of it.

"Isn't the money right?" An Changshi heard Zhang Yi's words, and he explained to Zhang Yi with a smile: "When Chen Yu first came to Hedong County, he didn't dump the land, he gradually amassed wealth by collecting people's wealth and bribes from subordinates at the beginning, and then bought the land, and then sold grain to buy land and rolled it up little by little, so he ......"

"I see, let's get out." Nodding, Zhang Yi took a piece of steel in his hand, and turned around and walked out with An Changshi.

After leaving the treasury and locking the three locks, Zhang Yi looked at the three keys in his hand and felt that the three keys should be kept separately, but who should be handed over to keep them?

After thinking about it, Zhang Yi turned his head and asked An Changshi: "An Changshi, you have followed Chen Yu from the beginning?" ā€

As soon as Zhang Yi's voice fell, An Changshi was so frightened that he immediately knelt down in front of Zhang Yi and said loudly: "Back to the lord, his subordinates are natives of Anyi, at first he was just a servant in the palace, and later he was promoted to Changshi by Chen Yu, but his subordinates are absolutely loyal to the lord and absolutely ......."

Zhang Yi asked casually, but An Changshi thought that Zhang Yi suspected him, so he hurriedly knelt down to show his loyalty.

"I never doubt your loyalty, I don't need to use people to be suspicious," Zhang Yi said and handed a key to An Changshi: "This is one of the three keys in the treasury, I will hand it over to you for safekeeping, take it." ā€

"Lord-in-law......" After listening to Zhang Yi's words, An Changshi took the key with trembling hands: "The lord's love, An Yin is unforgettable, An Yin was originally the lord's liver and brain, and he will never give up!" ā€

"Okay, get up," reaching out to pick up An Changshi, Zhang Yi smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "As long as you help me do things well, I will naturally not treat you badly, okay, you go and invite those people according to what I just said." ā€

"No, my subordinates will retire."

After bowing down and taking a few steps back, An Changshi turned around and walked out of the middle courtyard.

Looking up at the sun that had been setting in the west, Zhang Yi sighed, feeling that time was really not enough, he hadn't done anything yet, and the day was about to pass.

In fact, Zhang Yi has not been idle all day, and he hasn't even bothered to eat lunch yet, but he has too many things to do at the moment, so he feels that there is not enough time.

It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Yi has lunch, his lunch is very simple, a bowl of millet porridge, a stack of vegetables and two steamed buns, about his lunch Chen Yu and the house said very clearly, he will not be like Chen Yu when he was in power, every day big fish and meat, a meal to more than ten dishes, according to Zhang Yi's words, when the entire Hedong County was affected, he was too shou to lead by example, only one dish per meal, can eat enough.

After lunch, before Zhang Yi had time to burp, Huang Zhong invited several blacksmiths from Anyi City over, and Zhang Yi hurriedly dressed up and went to the court to meet them.

Zhang Yi explained the meaning of inviting them, that is, he wanted to ask them to cast a batch of weapons with iron and steel.

Several blacksmiths agreed to use iron to cast blades, but after seeing the bit of steel, several blacksmiths did not dare to take the work, according to their words, if they used some steel to cast blades, they were afraid that casting ten blades would damage five or six, which was really not enough.

Listening to their words, Zhang Yi also frowned, in fact, he also knew that using some steel to cast blades requires very superb casting technology, in the previous life, Zhang Yi also wasted three hundred catties of steel to cast a hook sickle, but later Zhang Yi spent five hundred taels in the system mall to buy a primary casting manual, so that his blacksmiths all learned, which improved the success rate of the blade.

Patting the door of his head, Zhang Yi shouted excitedly: "That's right, how did I forget the system mall!" ā€

As soon as Zhang Yi thought of the system mall, the list of the system mall immediately popped up in his mind.
