Chapter 795 - Talent Urgently Needed
Xiao Yu is not a simple-minded person, now Li Xiang has already opened the price, if you want to end this matter, then you have to show sincerity, Li Xiang will definitely have other requirements, if you give you such a big bargain for nothing, according to Xiao Yu's personality, he doesn't even dare to take it.
"Your Highness should also ask for something, there is no one else here, according to His Highness's previous character, we should open the skylight and speak brightly."
Xiao Yu knows Li Xiang's character, there is no need to hide many things, now such a big piece of pie has fallen, if Li Xiang has no requirements, then it will really be hell, Li Xiang's military talent exceeds his political talent, but this does not mean that Li Xiang has nothing to ask for in politics.
"The presiding official is from your family, but the deputy position is mine, and the other third is reserved for the imperial court."
Li Xiang first said a condition, many officials must start to run errands after taking office, although Li Xiang has many people who can learn, but these people have no way to directly exercise power, the main reason is that their qualifications are not enough.
The second is that these people don't know how to manage such a large piece of land, let them study with the chief officials for a while, and after three or five years, these people will be trained, whether they rise from here or transferred to other places, Li Xiang's hands are equivalent to a group of more usable people.
As for the one-third left to the imperial court, this is meaningless to Xiao Yu, if the two of you divide the whole of Sichuan, how can Li Shimin's side be willing? If Li Shimin knew about the situation here, he would have to ask for at least half of the quota, and now the reason why Li Shimin was given one-third Li Xiang was already under a lot of pressure.
Of course, Xiao Yu also understands that after three or five years, Li Xiang's people are likely to replace his family's people, and at that time, there may be a bamboo basket to draw water, but everything depends on how to operate, if his clansmen run well, Li Xiang may not replace these people, and now he has to fight to see who has the most ability.
Of course, Xiao Yu can also disagree, if you don't agree, it means that you have given up this opportunity, and the major families want to cooperate with Li Xiang, and some of them are that Li Xiang can cooperate with other people, and the reason why he is cooperating with Xiao Yu now is also because in the next one or two years, Xiao Yu will be in charge of Sichuan.
"In that case, then thank Your Highness, everything about this place is up to Your Highness."
Xiao Yu turned it around in his mind several times, and finally made this decision, if you don't listen to Li Xiang's shouting, even if you are the prime minister of the previous dynasty, even if you have Li Xiang of the Lanling Xiao family behind you, there is a way to replace you, don't you see that the five surnames and seven wangs can't be used in Li Xiang's hands? What's more, you are an outdated Lanling Xiao family.
After hearing Xiao Yu's words, Li Xiang's face brought a smile, and at this time Li Xiang also felt a drawback, that is, there are too few civil officials who can be used under his hands, although the imperial examination has begun now, but this thing is in the hands of Li Shimin, and the most capable young people in the world have been enveloped by Li Shimin.
It is indeed a little difficult to find it in society by himself, but Li Xiang thought of another way at this time, that is, to set up a righteous school.
In this era, education is the patent of the rich, and it is impossible for the poor to have the opportunity to receive education, and they can't even fill their stomachs, so how can they talk about reading? Although Li Xiang had suggested to the imperial court that a number of free schools should be set up in various places, the implementation had little effect, mainly because of lack of money.
Chang'an City is indeed set up, but many children from poor families have to work, if they don't go to work, then they can't eat, even if the school provides two meals, and even some other subsidies, but some adult children have to take care of some underage children, is two meals enough?
Li Xiang is very wealthy, he can do things that the imperial court can't do, as long as you come to study in the school organized by Zhidaobao, not only take care of your two meals, if you study well, you can also give you a certain subsidy, this subsidy is equivalent to a person's half-day salary.
Although there may be problems with temporary promotion, it will be possible to select talents in advance after a long time, and Li Xiang will accept these people before these talents go to the imperial examination.
Before he obtained the leadership of Datang, Li Xiang could only take this way to compete with Li Shimin for talents, but fortunately, Li Shimin had not realized how terrible this method was, so Li Xiang's actions were still supported by Li Shimin, after all, this can cultivate more talents for Datang, Li Xiang can take his own money and then subsidize the entire Datang, why is Li Shimin unwilling?
That night, the whole city of Chengdu was full of chickens and dogs, and many people thought that they might only have goods tomorrow, but when Li Xiang and Xiao Yu reached an agreement, you people were a bit of an eyesore, and there was already evidence of your corruption and perversion of the law in your hands, so how could Li Xiang let you wait until dawn tomorrow? If we were to make you wait until tomorrow dawn, wouldn't that give you bastards another day? Is there another opportunity to transfer property?
So when these people were discussing how to transfer their money, the door of their house was kicked open, and many people didn't understand what was going on, they were already trampled on the ground by Li Xiang's guards, and so many valuable things in the house didn't have time to be transferred, and now they are all registered by Mr. Bookkeeper, and the old and the young are thrown into the prison, if you want to die, we provide all kinds of tools here.
Anyway, according to Li Xiang's statement, this time we are all in a net, and we don't need to ask for their confessions, let alone ask them to confess from the officials above and below, because your officials from the top and bottom are in prison with you.
Only 20 days after Li Xiang left Chang'an City, Li Shimin received a package of folds in the Qinzheng Palace, yes, it was a packet of folds.
Sichuan officials send a lot of money to the capital every year, and these people are also their protective umbrellas, and now they are served by Li Xiang, which means that Li Xiang has cut off their financial routes, how can these officials be willing? Of course, you have to resist.
