"Yes, yes, it's not in vain that the national teachers bother to train them. When I saw it today, I didn't work hard in vain. ”

Li Xiao, who saw this scene not far away, couldn't help but say with relief.

Li Jinglong praised: "National teacher, these talents can do it, today they can already do it against the sons and daughters of those wealthy families, and great things can be done." ”

After all, the purpose of training this group of talents is to fight against the squire and landlords, and they have already seen the first hints today, and the calf has tried the knife.

"That's right, but it's still a little hot."

Li Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Jinglong, guess what they will say after they go back?" ”

Li Jinglong thought about it for a long time, but he didn't come up with a reason, so he couldn't help but ask curiously: "National teacher, what do they want to say the most?" ”

Li Xiao said indifferently: "I'm afraid that the heart in their hearts that has made contributions can't wait!" ”

Half a month later.

The journey is back.

Added up, it has been three months since I came to Nanjing, and everyone has been reborn, ambitious, and has a fire in their hearts, wanting to do the right thing.

Sure enough, after coming back, the talents began to ask for help.

On this day, I trained on the school field as usual, and when it was time for the lunch break, people began to ask for help, and then more and more people followed.

"National teacher, let's go out and make contributions."

"Yes, we have eaten three months of idle food, and we haven't done anything, the national teacher is so gracious, we can't repay it, we can only do things for the national teacher."

"National teacher, let's go and make contributions, we are already hungry and thirsty!"

The talents have been training for three months, and now they are full of energy, and they have been holding back for three months, and they are all suffocated.

This is also what Li Xiao wants to see.

When a person is full of energy, it cannot be stopped.

Li Xiao waved his hand: "No, you are not enough now, you still need to continue to temper." ”

"Enough is enough, please let the national teacher let us go out and make contributions!"

The talents shouted in unison.

Seeing this, Li Xiao smiled faintly: "Are you okay?" ”

Everyone patted their chests, "We're fine!" ”

"Good!" Li Xiaolang said: "After training for so long, everyone's growth is obvious to all, the national division is quite gratified, in the past three months, no one has escaped, no one has shouted that he is tired, you are now, you have been reborn, since you want to make contributions so much, then start tomorrow!" ”

The voice fell.

The talents are all happy.

It's finally time to get down to business, and it's finally begun!

"Qiushui, are the personnel arrangements in place?"

Li Xiao looked at Qiushui and asked.

A few days ago, Li Xiao handed over the situation of the yamen, townships, counties, villages, and acres in Yingtianfu to the general Qiushui, and asked him to organize them into a book, mark them on the map, and distribute these talents at the same time.

Qiushui walked over, took out the assigned booklet and map and handed it to Li Xiao, and said, "The head of the family, it has been arranged, please take a look at it." ”

Li Xiao nodded, took a look at the map, and marked the counties, townships, and villages on the map, and marked the numbers.

Each number represents a dormitory, representing a person.

There are more than 1,540 natural villages in the entire Yingtianfu.

In ancient times, the village was the basic organizational form of society, the basic unit of rural society and peasant production, and the number was very large.

On the map, the population of the village is also indicated, with only twenty or thirty people in the small number and about 1,000 people in the larger village.

In this way, each of the 1,500 or so talents has to serve as the head of the dormitory, so there is still a shortage of vice presidents and dormitory staff, and Li Xiao suddenly feels that there are not enough people.

The position of vice president can be vacant, but a temporary worker can be hired locally.

Or when the national examination is held in the future, more jobs will be created, but this needs to be said when the national treasury is more abundant, after all, the current expenditure of the national treasury is very large, in addition to war expenses, there is also the construction of the state.

There is also a roster, which marks who is in charge of which village, and is determined based on the ranking of the last glory game.

If you go to a village with a large number of people in the high ranking, such a village is difficult to manage, and you need a good person to do it, otherwise it will be difficult to intervene.

Those with low rankings and weak abilities go to small villages like twenty or thirty people.

It's not a waste of resources, because the population is growing greatly with the new decree, and now the total population of the Ming Dynasty is more than 60 million, as long as all kinds of poll taxes and other taxes are abolished, plus the increase in food, it can naturally explode growth.

"Qiushui, well done."

Li Xiao is very satisfied with Qiushui's arrangement, and it is not in vain that she has spent three years cultivating his arithmetic and logic, and she is very good at this kind of table arrangement.

"Xie family master praised."

Qiushui saluted and said, "This is what a slave should do." ”

Li Xiao bowed slightly, then looked at the talents, and said loudly: "You have successfully passed the hardships of the past three months and passed the test of your own division. Originally, some of you would be the head of the house, and some of you would be the deputy head of the house, but the national division decided to make you all the head of the house, and from today on, you will be officials. ”

The voice fell.

There was a boiling on the school grounds.

"What? Are we all married? ”

"yes, didn't you hear? It's all a long house! is a thirteen-grade official, enjoy the court's fortune! ”

"Great, I took more than 1,900 exams in this national examination, I thought it was a deputy, the national teacher is very gracious, and we have all been corrected."

"I heard that although the head of the Zhengshe District is a thirteenth-rank official, he is taller than a tenth-rank official."

"Yes, I've also heard that there is a 'subsidy for going to the countryside', that is, leaving the hometown and going to the countryside to be the head of the district, with a monthly subsidy of five taels of silver, plus this subsidy, it is very considerable."

All the talents were overjoyed.

Everyone thanked in unison: "Thank you, Guoshi!" ”

The sound resounded in the sky!

Li Xiao bowed slightly, and then said loudly: "No hard work, no gain, then you work hard, the head of the house will only be the starting point, not the end." The national division will keep an eye on your political achievements at all times, although it is said that you are only managing a village, but if you do a good job, you can become a rich village! For example, the model chicken village in Dong'an County, Beiping City, which produces 10,000 chickens every year, and the brick village in Wanping, which produces 100,000 bricks and tiles every year. The people are all brick houses, and a good meal of wine and food, so that the people can live a good life, is your political achievement! You are all carefully cultivated by your own teachers, and what your national teachers like most is to promote talents from the grassroots level. In the future, it is possible to be promoted upwards, the prefect, the prefect, and even the capital to be a Beijing official, so do it well! ”

Li Xiao took advantage of the situation to draw a big pie and let them work hard.

In fact, it is not an empty pie, if they perform well, Li Xiao is very willing to promote these people, and now what Daming lacks is a good official who works hard.

The talents are very happy to eat this big cake, because they know that the national teacher is really not stingy, and said in unison: "We will definitely live up to the expectations of the national teacher!" ”

"Very good, that's what I want!"

Li Xiao nodded, and then asked people to read the roster.

"Yu Qian was appointed as the head of Yingtianfu, Jiangning Town, Qilin Township, and Tangjia Village."

"Yu Qian takes the order!"

Yu Qian was so excited that he finally started to do business, and he was enthusiastic about Daming!

"Shi Qi was appointed as the head of Yingtianfu, Jiangning Town, Qilin Township, and Huanghua Village."

"Shi Qi commands!"

"Xu Sanduo was appointed as the head of Yingtianfu, Jiangning Town, Qilin Township, and Gao Lao Village."

"Team Xu San's command!"

As the morning passed, everyone appointed a place.

Soon, a letter of appointment was received.

Li Xiao, the appointment clerk, has already filed a case in the household department, and he can go to the county government to report with the paperwork.

The superior of the dormitory area is the county government, which is under the control of the county.

They need to find the magistrate, and later they will take the money from the county government's treasury to buy a piece of land in the village, and then build a building in the dormitory as an office space.

Later, if you need to engage in entrepreneurial projects, you also need to get money from the county government to do it.

There must be a lot of difficulties in this, after all, why did the county take out the money to do things for the district?

However, these difficulties must be solved by ourselves.

How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain?

"Good! Everyone has received the appointment papers, what should we do next, so that we don't need to teach them again from our own teachers, right? At the end of last year, it was trained at the 'Daming Officials Training Institute'. Li Xiao quipped: "Everyone has studied for three months, you shouldn't have forgotten it, right?" ”

That is, last year.

All the top 2,000 candidates in the national examination have undergone this training.

The training is how to build a housing area in the countryside and how to lead the villagers to get rich.

This series of steps and processes, how to build the dormitory, how to manage, how to establish a ledger, and how to build a village enterprise according to the local situation.

These Li Xiao have people draw a booklet for them to study, and let more than a dozen of the district chiefs in Beiping who are very good do it teach everyone experience.

Therefore, Li Xiao doesn't have to bother to talk about this.

Just let them go and they know how to do it.

Last year's training at the training academy was three months.

Eat and live, and have five taels of silver every month.

Li Xiao trained them in Nanjing for another three months, and they also paid ten taels of silver every month.

In addition, Li Xiao gave them the reward of the glory race in the end, twenty taels of silver.

In other words, almost every Xiucai has at least sixty-five taels of silver on him.

With these taels of silver, it is enough for them to buy clothes and use in the early stage, and then they will officially pay for it, and they will be close to 20 taels of silver every month, and their lives are guaranteed.

"National teacher, we still remember." The showmen laughed.

Li Xiao smiled: "That's good, in addition, in the early stage, I will arrange three soldiers per person to assist you, and you will choose from the soldiers of Cixiwei yourself." But this is a free obligation to help you, but you have to entertain others, eat and drink, don't be too picky, you know? ”

The Cixi guards were originally paid, and Li Xiao didn't plan to give money.

But let these quartermen eat and drink them, and the soldiers will definitely be willing.

In addition, they get along well with each other during this time, so let them choose familiar people by themselves.

Let these talents go to the county government to report alone, which is somewhat weak.

Each person is assigned three soldiers, even if they don't do anything, standing behind them, the momentum is different.

Presumably, even if Zhixian doesn't want to deal with it, it can't be too ugly on the surface.

After all, it's the people who sent it out by themselves, so they can't be too shabby.

"Xie Guoshi!"

Hearing that each person could get three soldiers to help the village, the Xiucai said excitedly: "We will definitely take good care of Cixiwei's brothers, and we will not be lazy!" ”

"Good! You can pack your bags today and report for duty tomorrow, and more."

Li Xiao pointed at this group of Xiucai and scolded: "You guys are sour, no wonder you have conflicts with people over there in the West Lake, what kind of rags are you wearing??" It's disgusting. This afternoon, I immediately threw away this ragged clothes to Lao Tzu, took the silver reward that Lao Tzu gave you, and went to the street to buy a few sets of decent clothes, don't go out to embarrass Lao Tzu, don't be reluctant to give up a few silver coins. There is a way that I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when I am gone. If you are an iron rooster, let alone someone trained by our teacher, you will be ashamed. Do you see that people believe you when you wear clothes and horses and saddles, and you wear rags and go to the village and say that you will bring the villagers to prosperity? Can you get the job done? ”

Li Xiao scolded at this group of talents.

If you don't scold, you can't do it, these people are used to being poor, and if they can, they will be saved.

It is necessary to use scolding to change their concept of consumption.

It's not that it's extravagant and wasteful, but when you have money, you have to get by with basic food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Li Xiao scolded, and some of the talents below were moved to cry.

Sincerity for sincerity, they can feel the hard work that Li Xiao has poured into them.

"We will not disappoint the national teacher."

The talents cried and shouted.

Moved, really moved.

They have never met such a nobleman, who gave them a stage and cared about their lives.

"Full of big husbands, all daughters!"

Li Xiao scolded, and then waved his hand: "Get out, it's annoying to watch." ”

"I'll do as I was told."

One by one, the talents stood straight, bowed deeply to Li Xiao, and then touched their tears and faded.

Everyone went out to buy new clothes in the company of each other.

In addition, the showmen also took the three soldiers selected and invited the soldier brothers to go to the restaurant to drink and go chic.

After all, the national teachers have reminded them not to be iron roosters.

These soldier brothers have to help them later, and they must be treated well.

Gradually, the entire barracks of talents and soldiers went to the bazaar.

All of a sudden, it became empty.

"Strange. I turned out to be. I feel a little reluctant. ”

Li Xiao looked at the empty school field and couldn't help but say.

Three months of eating and living together, three months of getting along day and night, more or less cultivated some feelings.

These showmen did not disappoint Li Xiao.

Li Xiao deeply felt that these scholars were actually ambitious.

It's just that they are not talented enough to write eight-strand essays, and they can't be admitted to fame.

But in some respects it's not bad, they just lack an opportunity.

And themselves, now give them this chance.

They are also willing to seize this opportunity to climb up.

"National teacher, if you treat them with sincerity and temper them, they can naturally feel it, and you have the grace of knowing them. Although I didn't worship you as a master, I have the grace to teach the Tao. ”

"It's normal to get along day and night for three months, and it's normal to be reluctant, which is why the general has been with the soldier for a long time, and the soldier is willing to die for the general."

"In other words, now these talents are the soldiers in your hands as the national teacher."

Li Jinglong explained with a smile that he also felt the same way.

He didn't know it before, but when he was in Cixi, he found that if he treated the soldiers with sincerity, the soldiers would return it doubly.

Such an army is called an army that can win battles and fight fiercely when the soldiers work together.

Li Xiao felt the same way: "That's right, they are all soldiers of their own division, opening up territory for me." ”

Li Jinglong nodded, and then said worriedly: "However. National teacher, this time you sent them to report and do things, but you didn't let the magistrates of those county offices inform them in advance, this time they went out, I am afraid that it will be difficult, and they are likely to fail. ”

"Of course I do."

Li Xiao smiled slightly: "It's not that they may fail, but they will definitely fail." ”

Hearing this, Li Jinglong was a little puzzled, "Then why did the national teacher still let them out?" ”

Li Xiao pointed to the sky and said loudly: "Now is the time for them to be complacent. The more this happens, the more I can't make them go too well, so I deliberately didn't get everything ready. How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain? It takes a setback to understand this truth. ”

"How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain."

Li Jinglong muttered to himself, and then suddenly realized that there was still a tempering.

National teachers cultivate talents, but they have their own set.

Li Xiao looked at the sky and said slowly: "In addition to tempering, there is another meaning, which is to tell the squires of the world of Ying Tianfu that war. It's about to begin" (end of chapter)
