It was still in the city lord's mansion in Letong, but it was almost noon on the third day after the talks between Sima Xin and the three Ru Menong, and the person Sima Xin met with was replaced by Sima Zhi and his party, who had just finished resting.

There were two people standing behind Sima Xin, one was naturally the beacon as the assistant to the city lord, and the other was Yi Ming.

At this time, Yi Ming already had an additional identity, that is, Sima Xin's "righteous son", he naturally appeared here to get to know the "righteous brother" in front of him who looked very delicate, but there was some gloom between his eyebrows and eyes.

Of course, this will inevitably meet Yi Ming's previous teacher, Lei Wuze.

Although Lei Wuze's face has not changed much now, he sneers at Yi Ming's choice in his heart, in his opinion, Sima Xin can't avoid this review, and it won't be long before the position of the city lord will be Sima Zhi, the fourth prince.

However, he also understood Yi Ming's choice, after all, it was a matter of life and death, and he took it for granted that if Yi Ming didn't choose to be Sima Xin's righteous son, he would have already become a specimen in Sima Xin's laboratory.

That's right, the guess of Ming Deng and the others is correct, Sima Zhi's trip is to review Letong's work.

Although Sima Xin is the brother of the King of Jin, he is also the lord of a city, so he must accept the leadership of the Jin State, and the necessary work review cannot be avoided.

I don't know what these four princes used to move the King of Jin, and they actually sent him to review.

Sima Zhi, who had just changed into a green coat, stood and saluted Sima Xin respectfully, "Uncle Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know if Uncle Wang is well?" ”

"I didn't expect Zhi'er to still think about Uncle Wang, my body is very good! It's been a long time since I've seen your father, how is he doing? Sima Xinpi said with a smile.

"My father's health has deteriorated in the past two years, and I miss Uncle Wang more and more, so I asked my nephew to tell you that if you have time, you will go to Longyang to get together."

"Oh~, why didn't your father tell me earlier? Are all the medicine men in the palace straw bales? Sima Xin looked a little angry, "Come, these are two tubes of high-grade recovery potion, effective for most injuries and illnesses, you go back and give it to your father, if it is not good in three or five days, send someone to tell me again, I will prescribe the right medicine!" ”

Sima Xin took out two potions that looked a little green and blackened, handed them to Yi Ming, and motioned for him to send them to Sima Zhi.

Sima Zhi naturally thanked him and accepted the potion.

Then the uncle and nephew exchanged pleasantries for more than ten minutes, and Sima Zhi couldn't help but cut to the chase.

You must know that with the strength of their group, it is only three days at most from Longyang to Letong, but I don't know why, there are many monsters invading them along the way.

Although the strength of these monsters is only nine diamonds at the highest peak, close to eight diamonds, their actual combat power is comparable to that of eight-diamond high-level hunters, so it has also caused them some trouble.

They consumed a lot of supplies along the way, and had to go into the small towns along the way to resupply, so it was already the fifth day by the time they arrived at Letong.

They traveled all the way, and then went to the Hunters' Association for a short rest before they came to the City Lord's Mansion to find Sima Xin, and now Sima Zhi was already a little impatient.

"Uncle Wang, I guess you haven't forgotten the censorship system of the Jin Kingdom." Sima Zhi asked.

Sima Xin secretly sneered in his heart and said, "How could I forget, could it be that Zhi'er came with a review mission this time?" ”

Sima Zhixu nodded matter-of-fact and said, "Yes, I can tell Uncle Wang that we are about to launch an attack on the Yan Kingdom in the northeast. So I came here this time to review Letong City, which Uncle Wang is in charge of, to see how many troops and grain and grass Letong can support. ”

As soon as these words came out, Sima Xin and Yi Mingming behind him frowned slightly, obviously they didn't expect that King Jin would actually want to use troops outside.

And the people on Sima Zhi's side saw the small change in Sima Xin's expression, and they were not surprised by this, because they were also taken aback when they first heard the news, and their performance was much worse than the lord of a city in front of them.

"Then I don't know where Zhi'er plans to start the review?" Sima Xin asked.

"Since it is to prepare for war, it is naturally the army, taxes and food." Sima Zhi paused when he said this, glanced at Yi Ming behind Sima Xin, and then said: "There are also talents!" ”

Sima Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "Oh~, talent? I don't know how many talents you plan to take with you? And how to screen talents?

Although my happiness is not big, it is not small, and there may not be many other things, but there are quite a lot of people. ”

Sima Zhi smiled slightly and said: "Uncle Wang, the little nephew thinks that only those who have real skills can be regarded as talents, such as this Yi Ming brother, I have heard Deacon Lei and Deacon Claire mention more than once, he has talent and some actual combat experience, but I don't know that Uncle Wang is reluctant to let him go to the battlefield." ”

"I believe Ming'er won't refuse, after all, this is a war for the country, it's his obligation, right, Ming'er?" After Sima Xin finished speaking, he glanced at Yi Ming.

Yi Ming took a step forward and said respectfully: "Ming'er obeys his father-in-law's arrangement!" "His posture is very sufficient, after all, even if it is acting, he has to act like something.

"Since Uncle Wang is willing to let go, then Brother Yi Ming will automatically occupy a place." Sima Zhi said with a smile, "Don't hide it from Uncle Wang, this time my father is determined to win the Yan Kingdom, so he gave twenty places for each city of the Jin Kingdom to enter the Yundao Academy Palace for cultivating war talents."

Before I set out, my father and several ministers had already drawn up a selection plan and a review plan for the selection of talents in each city, as well as the review of materials and troops.

This is the selection plan and review plan this time, please take a look at Uncle Wang. After Sima Zhi finished speaking, he sent Sima Xin an encrypted file.

And Sima Xin's heart was not as calm as it appeared when he heard Sima Zhi's words, because since the founding of the Jin State, the King of Jin has adopted the rule of inaction, allowing each city to recuperate and recuperate, although there is a set of censorship system, but it is only superficial, otherwise Le Tong under Sima Xin's jurisdiction would not have been so backward in the Jin State without any punishment.

Sima Xin looked at the harsh review plan in front of him, and knew that King Jin really planned to use swords and soldiers externally, and it was estimated that many city lords would be replaced within this year.

It didn't take long for Sima Xin to finish reading the two plans, "Since Brother Wang has formulated such a complete plan, then everything will be carried out according to this plan, I have no opinion."

And you don't have to give the quota you just said to Ming'er directly, lest others be dissatisfied, he will also participate in this selection together, if he can't be selected, it will be his fate! Sima Xin's tone was a little cold when he said this, as if he was threatening Yi Ming.

Hearing this, Sima Zhi also smiled in his heart, he planned to pick and choose thorns to avenge Sima Xin's disdain for him back then! You must know that he also wasted a lot of thought about this plan, and he did not hesitate to offend several powerful people in the DPRK and China to target Sima Xin.

"Uncle Wang's righteousness! I wonder when we'll be able to start the selections? If you choose it early, Brother Yi Ming, they should go to further study early! Sima Zhi laughed.

Sima Xin sneered in his heart and said, "You have come from Longyang to take a day of rest, and the selection will start the day after tomorrow, I will order them to go down now, and a day and a half is enough for them to make preparations."

Zhi'er, you can take you people to rest first. Sima Xin issued an eviction order.

Sima Zhi didn't care, bowed respectfully, and left.

After they left, Sima Xin showed the two encrypted files to Yi Ming and Ming Deng, and they were also a little shocked.

This review plan seems to require a fiscal surplus of 80 billion crystal yuan, which is still because Sima Xin is royal family has given a discount, and other cities are required to be more than 10 billion.

There is not much trade in this place itself, and the level of the surrounding beasts and monsters is not very high, so the annual financial surplus is only 20 billion crystals, and the remaining 60 billion crystals is a big gap.

The penalty for failing the review is to halve the financial support from Longyang for three years. This also means that the maintenance of infrastructure in the city and the expenses of the army have to be paid by Sima Xin himself.

Of course, given that this is just the implementation of the new scheme, this item will not be subject to a specific settlement review until half a year later.

The next step is the review of the strength of the army, which requires that the strength of ordinary soldiers must be at least able to defeat three ordinary adults at a time, the strength of low-level officers must be at least close to that of a one-star hunter, and the strength of senior officers, except for special services such as staff officers, must have a one-star medium strength.

This item is not a big problem for Sima Xin, because of the low strength of the beasts and monsters around Letong, he often asks the garrison to go to the surrounding forests to clear the beasts, so the strength of the Letong garrison is also one of the best in the Jin Kingdom, but not many people know about it.

But to Sima Xin's displeasure, two-thirds of the garrison would be drawn to the battlefield at that time. This is an elite soldier that he has spent a lot of effort to cultivate, so he is naturally unwilling to send it out like this.

As for the grain and grass, it is not strictly examined, because now it is the use of soilless cultivation technology, there are special agricultural buildings in the city for cultivating various crops, and each city will have at least one million catties of grain in storage every year.

The rest is all trivial scrutiny.

As for the selection plan, that is, to convene young people over the age of 14 and under 27 in the city to conduct a test, which is divided into a force test, an intelligence test and a comprehensive test, and each of them will select 1,000 top-notch people at the initial stage, and then conduct a competition, and finally select ten talents with the strongest force and ten talents with the highest intelligence, and join the Wushuang Hall and Yimou Hall of the Yundao Academy Palace for training.

The comprehensive test is a test of vocational skills such as forging and alchemy, which is more miscellaneous, and there will be special people to conduct the test, and the selected people do not occupy the enrollment quota, and a comprehensive class will be opened separately for these talents to be trained.

Of course, all the tests cost one-third of the Jin kingdom and two-thirds of the various cities. You must know that this is the young people of the whole city, and it is a lot of money to take the test regardless of whether they are poor or poor.

Although it seems that a lot of talents can be selected, no one has done anything like this before, and I don't know how effective it will be.

However, now there is no other choice, if you want to continue to stay in the Jin Kingdom, you can only follow these two plans, especially Sima Xin's document and a sentence specially written by the King of Jin for him: In order to play an exemplary role, the second brother will work hard to be the first person to eat crabs!
