"It's okay, just transfer the craftsmen in Goryeo back!"

Zhu Di said directly.

"Your Highness is wise, Weichen actually forgot, my Yan Wangfu also has craftsmen in Goryeo!"

Zhu Fu's eyes lit up, and then he hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the construction of so many sections of cement avenue also requires many bookkeeping scribes.

Why don't His Highness also take advantage of the situation and transfer back some scribes from Goryeo? ”

"Not enough clerks in the house?"

Zhu Di was a little puzzled.

Zhu Fu said helplessly: "Your Highness, the scribes in the house are enough. However, if all the clerks of the house are sent to manage these cement avenues, there will be no one to use for many affairs in the house! ”

Zhu Di nodded slightly, and then looked at Guo An on the side.

"Guo Qing, how many scribes can be brought back from Goryeo?"

Guo An hurriedly shook his head, "Your Highness, not a single scribe in Goryeo can be transferred back!"

Even, not only could Goryeo not transfer back the scribes, but Weichen also had to take a few scribes from the house to the Wa Kingdom. ”

Hearing this, without waiting for Zhu Di to speak, Zhu Fu said angrily: "Guo Changshi, since there are not enough scribes, why do you still suggest that Your Highness pave such a long cement avenue?"

Do you know that in the past two years, you have continuously brought all the scribes of the government to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom, how difficult it is for the old man to deal with the government affairs of the government every day? ”

Guo An's face was shocked, "How can this be so, just a few scribes can make Zhu Changshi so difficult?"

I remember that the academy outside the city recruits a fixed number of poor scholars to enter the academy every year, is it possible that now there are thieves in the academy and the children of the poor are not allowed to enter the academy? ”

"There are no thieves in the academy!"

Zhu Fu was asked by Guo An, and the resentment in his heart was directly transferred to the academy.

"Then my Yanwang Mansion can recruit at least thirty scholars as scribes every year, and even if there is a shortage of scribes, it should not be a problem to recruit fifty, or even sixty!"

Guo An was shocked.

Zhu Fu sighed softly and said, "Guo Changshi doesn't know, because of the small class in the academy, many poor scholars also want to gain fame!"

Therefore, many talented scholars from poor families would rather stay in the academy in poverty than come to the house to be scribes! ”

"I see!"

Guo An nodded slightly, "Then recruit the children of those gentry families, or the sons of merchants." ”

"Recruit the sons of gentry and merchants?"

Hearing this, Zhu Di and Zhu Fu were both shocked.

"How does this work?"

Guo An smiled lightly and said, "Your Highness, Zhu Changshi, why can't you recruit the sons of gentry and merchants?" ”

Zhu Fu shook his head and said, "If there are ill-intentioned people who collude with their family, then my Yan Wangfu will definitely suffer heavy losses!" ”

Guo An sneered directly, "Zhu Changshi, dare to have a scribe collude with their family and be greedy for money in the Mo Mansion, then His Royal Highness directly sent someone to confiscate his family, wouldn't he even have to come back with interest?" ”

"This ......"

Zhu Fu was stunned.

On the side, Zhu Di was a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Guo An continued: "However, recruiting the children of the Han family into the Yan Wangfu as officials is just to give them a good future.

Since some people do not want to, then they will recruit those who are willing to come to the house.

If there is still a shortage of scribes, there will be many merchants and gentry who are willing to enter my Yanwang Mansion!

Of course, when I come to my Yanwang Mansion, I must be hard-working, and talented......"

"Yes!"

On the side, Zhu Di said directly: "Zhu Qing, in the future, I will recruit scribes in the Yan Wangfu, and I can also recruit the children of those gentry and merchants." ”

Guo An continued: "In addition, if you have a meritorious person, you can also be the scribe of my Yan Wangfu. ”

"Fame?"

Zhu Di and Zhu Fu were both stunned.

You must know that at this meeting, Daming has only gone through several rounds of imperial examinations.

The scholars who have won the examination are relatively rare.

Even if Xiucai wants to be an official, he can enter a state, county and county government and become a scribe.

"Exactly!"

Guo An said, "Your Highness, our Yan Wangfu is going to attack and govern Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom, and there will be more and more officials needed in the future!" ”

"In this way, there will really be meritorious people who will come to be the scribe of my Yanwang Mansion?"

Zhu Fu was still a little unconfident, but his eyes were full of expectation.

"There will be!"

Guo An said with a look of certainty.

"Great goodness!"

Zhu Di's face was full of joy, since listening to Guo An's 'sincere' words a few days ago, Zhu Di's mentality has also changed.

In the past, he had never thought of recruiting those scholars who had achieved fame.

Now, even if a Jinshi comes and wants to ask for an official position in his Yanwang Mansion, he Zhu Di has to agree.

Seeing this, Zhu Fu on the side was stunned, and he suddenly reacted, didn't he just want to complain, just to add government affairs to him, and keep taking away the scribes he had trained?

Why is this, suddenly inexplicably discussed, what scribes should be recruited for the Long History Division?

In this way, wouldn't it add trouble to his long history?

However, Guo An didn't give Zhu Fu time to react, and talked directly.

"Your Highness, Zhu Changshi, I, the Yan Palace, should let those scholars who have read the book understand that the scribe of the Changshi Division is not a worthless position, and it is not something that anyone can mix in at will!

The scribes of my Yanwang Mansion, each of them can be in charge of their own affairs, they can govern a state and county, they are proficient in the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and they are proficient in bookkeeping......

The scribes of my Yan Palace, each of them are virtuous, and they will eventually be sent to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom, and they will be responsible for educating those barbarians, governing those barbarian lands, and expanding the territory for my Ming Dynasty......"

"Your Royal Highness, Zhu Changshi, those scribes who want to come into my Yanwang Mansion Chief Shi Division, must pass the examination, that is, the examination.

Just like the imperial examination, those who select the best and the most loyal can enter, but they do not test the Four Books and the Five Classics, but the Great Edict, the arithmetic account book, how to manage the people below and the extravagance, the labor, and the ...... of governing the vassal state."

“…… It is personally taught by His Royal Highness King Yan, and only by passing the examination and teaching of His Royal Highness King Yan can he become a scribe of the Long History Division......

"Also, these scribes who have received the settlement fee must work for five years in the Shi Division, the head of my Yanwang Mansion, before they can resign!

Their children are allowed to enter the College......

In addition, my Yan Wangfu will reward every scholar who becomes a scribe with a hundred taels of silver for the cost of settling down...... If it is a talent and fame, the settling-in allowance is 200 taels; for lifting people, it is four hundred taels; Jinshi ......"

Speaking of this, Guo An couldn't help but hesitate.

Zhu Di said directly: "The Jinshi settlement fee is one thousand taels!" ”

"Your Highness is wise!"

Zhu Fu and Guo An hurriedly flattered like ministers.

It's just that after finishing speaking, Zhu Fu couldn't help opening his mouth wide, his eyes full of surprise.

Scholars?

Wouldn't His Highness want to compete with the imperial court and even His Majesty for the great Ming talents?

In this way, how can those courtiers in the court let His Highness go?

Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, how can you let His Highness go?

Moreover, those Jinshi will really come to Yanwangfu and serve as scribes?

His long history is just a lifter!

However, looking at Zhu Di's serious expression, Zhu Fu thought about it and did not raise any objections.

Your Highness is happy!

……

solved the labor of paving the cement avenue, and put forward a good strategy for recruiting talents for the governor of Yanwang Mansion.

For a few days, Zhu Fu and Zhu Di had nothing else to do to find Guo An.

Guo An took Zhu Gaochi to inspect the academy, the craftsman school, the gunpowder workshop, the glass workshop, the smelter, the wool workshop, the cotton workshop, and the grain chamber of commerce......

Finally, I went to the farm, Zhangjiawan Wharf.

If there is a problem, he will raise it and explain it to Zhu Gaochi, so that Zhu Gaochi will always keep an eye on the improvement of those stewards.

As for the ones that don't have a problem, it's encouragement.

Then, give those stewards and craftsmen a suggestion, or a direction of development.

Let those stewards and masters all have happy faces.

When Guo An came down in a circle, all the materials that went to the Wa Kingdom had been pulled to Dagukou Wharf by Wang You and other thousands of households, with the Yanshan guards.

Guo An also resigned to Zhu Di and said goodbye to Liu Baiwei, Yuelan and others.

With Guo Erniu, set off for Dagukou.

Subsequently, he took a boat to Goryeo and inspected the country of Goryeo.

In the end, he took 10,000 Goryeo troops to the Wa Kingdom.

……

And on the day Guo An left Beiping Mansion, after many intercessions by the crown prince Zhu Biao, the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang also forgave the Qin King Zhu Zhang.

Let Zhu Fan go back to Xi'an.

Although in the court, some imperial historians and ministers still want to hold Zhu Fan accountable.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao agreed on the same opinion, and the courtiers had no choice but to let Zhu Zhang, the king of Qin, return to Xi'an.

At the same time.

Zhu Di, the king of Yan, wanted to recruit 10,000 laborers to pave the construction from Zhangjiawan Wharf in Tongzhou to Dagukou, and finally reached Jingshi Yingtiancheng.

Of course, the Yan Wangfu spent money to recruit scribes, especially the famous scribes, and it also spread to the court.

For this matter, all the courtiers were dismissive.

Let the dignified famous scholar of the imperial examination go to your Yanwang Mansion to be a little scribe?

King Yan is really whimsical!

On the contrary, the ministers were boiling about the paving of cement avenues, but no one had a reason to stop it.

As for Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, they sighed with emotion.

"That bastard thing of the fourth brother has finally fulfilled his duties as a vassal king!"

"Dad, the fourth mansion has indeed made some money in the past few years. However, the fourth child behaved like this, and he should want to let the merchants in the south of the Ming Dynasty and the fleet of Goryeo also go to Beiping Mansion to trade after the cold winter. ”

Zhu Biao said with a pale face.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little dissatisfied, "Hmph, this kid is more concerned about Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom than those thieves in the Northern Yuan!" ”

Zhu Biao smiled slowly, "Dad, no matter what, the completion of this cement avenue is a great benefit to the people along the line."

Moreover, with this cement road, even after the cold winter, the imperial court wants to transport some grain and grass to Beiping Mansion, even if it is to send additional soldiers, it is also much more convenient. ”

"Hmm!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, and then hurriedly said: "Biao'er, you recuperate, don't worry about these things anymore!" ”

Zhu Biao said: "Dad, you can rest assured, the child's body, the child himself knows best, just a few more days of recuperation, you can be healed!" ”

"Very good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, then got up and said to the surrounding officials of the East Palace: "You must take care of the prince, and don't want anyone to report political affairs to the prince, so as not to disturb the prince's retreat!" ”

"Wechen obeys!"

A group of officials of the East Palace hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and walked out.

Outside the main hall, the imperial doctors who had been diagnosing the crown prince Zhu Biao had already knelt on the ground, waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang.
