In the following days, Zhao Kuo visited or met with many important ministers of the court one by one. For Xu Li, Zhou Qi and others under his command, there are naturally arrangements.

Xu Li was quietly brought to the Ministry of Industry by Zhao Kuo, and the purpose couldn't be more obvious, that is, to make this old minister optimistic about the weapon he relied on for survival - technology.

Science and technology are the primary productive forces, Zhao Kuo is very clear.

Of course, the process of persuading Xu Li is still a little troublesome, after all, he has been in the army all his life, and it is really difficult to change to Wenchen temporarily.

Tuntian? Tuntian is also a soldier! You can hit it when you drive out.

However, the current Tuntian has its own household department and generals from all over the country, and there is no need to waste rare talents like Xu Li.

There was no way, Zhao Kuo could only take Xu Li to the valley twenty miles outside Handan City.

There, the three thousand heavy cavalry had already begun their training, and the three hundred Mo swordsmen wielding the Mo swords were even more vigorous.

"Such a sharp weapon, handed over to others, the widow is not at ease." Zhao Kuo looked at Xu Li, who was already hungry, and said lightly: "Now that Zhao Guo is in ruins, there is really no one in the hands of the widow who can accept this piece of work, how about it, help the widow to top it for a while, and when the talent is rich, the widow will withdraw this Ordnance Division from the Ministry of Industry, when the time comes, whether you are willing to stay in the Ministry of Industry, or leave with the Ordnance Department, it is up to you, and it is up to you to take charge of the army again!" ”

can be so frank and trusting, Xu Li, who heard the words, how could he still have any resistance, and immediately agreed to Zhao Kuo's request as if a chicken pecked rice.

Of course, because of the problem of Xu Li's official position, it is not enough to be a scholar all at once, and Zhao Kuo is naturally arranged

A right squire was given to him.

But clear-eyed people know very well that Xu Li is a meritorious figure who has followed the Zhao family since the previous generation of Ma Fujun, not to mention that he also experienced the Changping War with Zhao Kuo, and even before the war, Zhao Kuo was commensurate with his uncle.

This squire, is it comparable to the squire?!

As for the other general, Zhou Qi, Zhao Kuo did not change his task, and was still training his three thousand iron horsemen.

In Zhao Kuo's positioning, Zhou Qi and Zhao Wei will be the sharpest spearheads in his and Li Mu's hands, the kind that can pierce everything.

Zhou Qi has already been in the battle formation, and there is no need to train, but Zhao Wei still needs to polish it.

This is also why Zhao Kuo transferred Zhou Qi into the heavy cavalry, but took Zhao Wei, who had greater strength and better martial arts, with him and polished it from time to time.

In any case, after a few days of unremitting efforts, Zhao Kuo finally adjusted the people around him to the desired position, and at the same time, Pingyuanjun, Yu Qing and others also began to release some news about the new deal and began to listen to the reactions of their subjects.

Of course, it is said that it is a reaction to listening, but in fact, this article has long been an iron case that has been decided, even if it is angry and resentful, Zhao Kuo will only carry it out.

revealed in advance that Zhao Kuo just wanted everyone to be prepared, and it would be really good if there were people who could connect and block the new deal......

Before the Shangyuan Festival, the last day of Humu.

On the vast land of Yanzhao, after more than ten days of wind and frost, the old trees in the city finally gradually showed their branches.

On the street on the right side of the palace in Handan City, a simple and majestic building, with a fierce sound of firecrackers, can be regarded as Zhao Kuo's new

Politics kicked off.

In the midst of the smoke, a red silk cloth obscured the sign of the house.

Since the construction of this house, the people of Handan have been talking about it. There is no way, it is too high-profile, both on the side of the palace, and on the side of the main road, and more importantly, several nearby houses have been directly requisitioned, you know, people who can buy houses here are either rich or expensive!

However, there are no complaints, let alone any obstruction.

Originally, the ruffians in Handan still wanted to come forward to ask for some benefits to live, which was also an inevitable thing in the construction of the country. Whether it is out of the fact that more is better than less, or the mentality that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, he will give some change more or less, and if the negotiation is good, it is not necessary to contract part of the work to the ruffian.

It's just that this time the ruffians have obviously kicked the iron plate. Not only did he not get any money, but he was taught a lesson by the worker, and he threw them all out.

And that's not all.

Just when the ruffians were entangled in the small minions on other territories at night, and wanted to take advantage of the night to cause some damage and find the field, a team of Zhao Guo's army drove directly to it. Immediately, the steward of the house stood in the midst of it. Without saying a word, as the stewards named them one by one, the soldiers of Zhao Guo slipped out of the crowd with one hand and the people who asked for money during the day.

Of course, some people resisted, but unfortunately, the soldier's knife is not a farmer's hoe, and if you swing it down, it will be a big scar in the bowl!

In this way, under the gaze of hundreds of people, the dozen or so people who made trouble were all arrested, and there was no trace of them, some people said that they were in the fortress of the Northlands

They have been seen, and some people say that they have been seen in the caravans of the steppe......

But in any case, since then, everyone knows that this house is not simple!

Of course, there are also good people who speculate whether this mansion will be the mansion that the king wants to give to Pingyuanjun, after all, the current Zhao Kingdom, except for the king, that is, Pingyuanjun, has the qualifications to live in such a huge mansion.

On the other side, some people retorted that although Pingyuan Jun has a higher status, as far as the country is concerned, General Lian Po has more prestige and greater merit, and General Lian Po is old, so letting the old general retire in Handan can be regarded as my king's kindness.

As soon as this remark came out, it gained a large number of supporters.

For a time, the arguments between the Pingyuan Jun's Mansion and General Lian Po's Mansion were endless, which made Lu Buwei, who was in charge of supervising the work, a little surprised.

Lao Tzu, this is for the people of the world!

Lu Buwei wanted to shout at them, but it was a pity that he, who was already a minister, naturally couldn't do this. In desperation, Lü Buwei secretly ordered his subordinates to release the true purpose of this mansion.

It's a pity that many times, no one listens to the truth.

The news that Lü Buwei finally released was like a mud cow entering the sea, and there was no news.

Naturally, this news quickly spread to Zhao Kuo's ears through the dark guard and Yu Lin Wei respectively. Obviously, the two departments that had just been created were gradually showing their fangs.

Zhao Kuo was not surprised by the people's speculation.

Just like in later generations, which company does not say that the most important thing in the 21st century is talent, but how many have you heard of a company that really builds a building to distribute talents?

But it was clearly said that it was impossible for someone who was not from a technical background to be in charge

But the powerful seem to have shown signs of repentance.

It doesn't matter anymore!

The more people speculate like this, the more they take it for granted that the moment when the truth is revealed is shocking and unforgettable.

And today, on this Shangyuan Festival, Zhao Kuo stood under this red cloth!

Gently shake off the red silk cloth, the three big characters of "Seeking Talents" slowly broke free from the red cloth, and the gold was displayed in front of the people of Zhao State.

People marveled at the plaque on the head, the font of the pen and the dragon and snake is from the pen of Pingyuan Jun, under the carving of skilled craftsmen, even if it is moved on the door plaque, its magnificent atmosphere is still spewing out.

Of course, no matter how well these three words are written, they can't stand the shock that the connotation of these three words has brought to the world.

It turned out that this house, which was the closest and largest to the palace, was not a reward for Pingyuanjun or General Lianpo, but a shelter for people of insight in the world.

You don't have to think about it to know that as long as you enter the pavilion and enter the palace with your feet raised, what kind of soaring will it be!

This is more specific and effective than Qin Xiaogong's "Recruitment Order".

What's more, the Qin State has the "Recruitment Order", how can Zhao Kuo live under the Qin State? A "Seeking Talent Order" inherited from Cao Da was slowly read out by Comrade Lu Buwei, the director of the Talent Seeking Hall, in the eager eyes of the people of Handan.

"The king's order, said: Seek merit.

Since ancient times, the king of Zhongxing has been ordained, and he can't taste the wise man and gentleman who rules the world with him? And he is virtuous, he has never been out of Lu Lane, how can he be lucky to meet? The ear of those who are above seek it. Today's decision has not yet been made, and this special talent is also urgent.

'Meng Gong is Zhao, Wei Lao is excellent,

Don't be Teng, Doctor Xue. 'If it is available later, then how can Qi Huan dominate the world!' Is there anyone who is fishing in Weibin by brown jade today? And did you have to steal the money and not meet the ignorant?

The second and third sons are bright and ugly, and I am the only one who moves, and I have to use it. ”

Obviously, Cao Dada's writing is very worthy of recognition, and of course, his thinking is also more open and inclusive, far beyond the current people.

"Meritocracy" is the central idea of the "Seeking Merit", and it is one of the magic weapons that Cao Dada has killed from many princes.

Although today's Warring States is already a bad etiquette, even if it is dirty, it often still preaches the use of "virtue", not to mention that virtue comes first, but at least it is both ability and political integrity.

The reason is very simple, in terms of talent, it is like a math problem, the line is the line, and if it doesn't work, there is only one solution left, and it is easy to be distinguished by everyone.

How can this work? My baby is not good at math, but my baby is good at organizing work! Yes, the organization work, whether the organization is well organized or not, how to calculate it well, how to calculate it badly, you have the final say or the organization has the final say? What's more, you are all organized, how can there be a possibility that your baby organization will not work.

That's the benefit of virtue!

I say you can do it, you can do it, and if you can't, you can do it; Say you can't do it, you can't do it, you can't do it.

You can't accept it!

Under such a social atmosphere, the rising space of the lower-class people has been seriously blocked, and the upper-class aristocracy is not as good as the next generation is already the basic plate, and for the continued prosperity of the family, it is bound to defend such rules and regulations for the selection and appointment of people. So, talent

A large amount of burial became inevitable.

The so-called meat eaters are not unreasonable.

Of course, anyone who is afraid of being forced to be urgent, the so-called "unchanged or dead", under the threat of the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species, there will naturally be aristocrats who want to break such rules and regulations and re-enable low-level talents to save their national fortunes.

And in the Warring States period, it was none other than the first power to change this situation, it was the current number one power, the Qin State......
