After signing the farewell and becoming an official, Lu Yuan can be regarded as advancing and retreating with his friends.

As the new county lieutenant, he is in charge of public order in a place, and although he has not yet taken office, he has already begun to plan for his appointment.

"Normally, one hundred and fifty officers and soldiers in one county is more than enough. But Wugang County is different, there are all chaotic people, and with these officers and soldiers, they can't be suppressed. Recruit more. Lu Yuan put forward his own opinion.

"Brother Lu is right."

Sun Siwen nodded in agreement, and then spread his hands and said, "But I only have these three thousand taels of silver in my hand." Even if I add my savings over the years, it is only more than 100 taels, and I have no money to recruit more people. ”

Lu Yuan glanced at him and said hatefully: "It's really cheap for you." Forget it, since I am a county lieutenant, in order to be worthy of the official position given to me by the imperial court, I will also contribute more.

I can fund three thousand taels of silver and use them together to recruit soldiers.

However, the 150 salaries that were recruited have to be solved by you, the county lord. ”

Over the years, in addition to retreating and cultivating, Lu Yuan would also go hunting in the mountains from time to time to relax and relax.

In a few years, by selling prey in the mountains, he accumulated more than 5,000 taels of silver.

Now it's easy to take out three thousand taels to help a friend recruit troops.

It was as if I had spent 3,000 taels to buy a county lieutenant. He thought a little depressed.

"Thank you, Brother Lu, for your help."

Sun Siwen knew that he had a lot of financial resources, and he knew that his friends could get hundreds of thousands of taels of silver if they hunted casually. So there was no doubt about this, and he immediately rejoiced: "If I can successfully pacify Wugang County this time, I will make meritorious contributions to the county government for Brother Lu."

Lu Yuan waved his hand: "Okay, don't say so much, it's enough for me to be a county lieutenant, and I'm not interested in getting promoted or making a fortune." But then again, since I paid for the soldiers, then these soldiers will be under my command.

There are also military attachés in the county, and I have the right to recommend. ”

In line with the idea that if you spend money, you have to spend it.

Lu Yuan was ready to maximize the value of his silver at this time.

"No problem, I originally wanted to hand over this matter to Brother Lu." Sun Siwen agreed.

Lu Yuan was right before, he was a weak scholar.

Let Sun Siwen be good at teaching and educating people, and he is reluctant to govern the place. But if you lead the troops to fight, then you will be numb.

At this time, Lu Yuan was willing to take over these troubles, and he was too late to be happy.

As for the risk of being overheaded?

For his friends, Sun Siwen has never worried about these things.

"Okay then, let's just say that."

Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction, then glanced at Sun Shiwen, and instructed his immediate boss: "Since I am in charge of the military, then I will bring the three thousand taels of military salaries later, and I will deal with the recruitment of troops."

You take advantage of this time to go to the county to recruit a group of left officials.

As a county magistrate, it is not enough to have a county lieutenant to assist the left. Other Books, Teachings, Scholars, and Taxation Envoys...... Wait for the left official, and also find Qi people. ”

In a local county town, counting from the ninth grade upwards, there are as few as 12 or 3 officials and as many as 16 or 7 officials. Most of them are civilians.

On the military attaché side, Lu Yuan can solve it, but on the civilian side, it is up to Sun Siwen to find someone.

"Okay, there are some students in my academy, they rely on their own imperial examinations, and it is difficult for them to pass the examination. This time there are county officials coming down, and it is also an opportunity for them, and there should be someone who is willing to take risks to go with me for the sake of the future. ”

Sun Siwen was instructed by his friend, and without the slightest resistance, he immediately said excitedly: "I'm going to contact them." ”

So saying, he hurried out the door.

Watching him leave, Lu Yuan shook his head, and then found his student Zhou Qing.

"The division has taken over the post of county lieutenant in Wugang County, and is ready to recruit 500 officers and soldiers in Changning County, and go to the post with Brother Sun."

explained the situation to his apprentice a little, and then Lu Yuan said to him: "When the time comes, you will also go with me, and I will ask Brother Sun to arrange an errand for you to inspect the inspection, and then you will be my deputy to help manage these officers and soldiers."

Now you go to the city and ask if there are any people who are good at training, and if so, try to recruit them.

At the same time, the wind was released, and it was said that Sun County was ready to lead troops to take up his post, and there was a shortage of several patrol and patrol leaders in the army.

There are those who want to take advantage of this official shortage, and those who are from a good background. Pay 500 taels of silver, and send it to the Jiupin patrol officer. Pay a thousand taels of silver, and you will be issued with the body of a nine-grade inspector.

Quantities are limited, while stocks last.

Let those people who are interested come to the county lieutenant and pay the money as soon as possible. ”

The promise he had just received from his friend with three thousand taels of silver was immediately used by Lu Yuan at this time.

According to the control of Dayue, from the nine products of patrol arrest, can manage 50 officers and soldiers. Zhengjiu product inspection, can manage 100 officers and soldiers.

This time, in order to pacify Wugang County, the county government gave Sun Siwen a battalion of 500 people.

That is to say, in Sun Siwen's hands, he mastered the official positions of one county lieutenant, five inspectors, and ten patrols.

Of these sixteen official positions, Lu Yuan took the county lieutenant, and then arranged an inspection for the disciples, and there were still fourteen official positions that could be taken out and sold.

If they are all sold, they are expected to get 9,000 taels of silver.

He gave away 3,000 taels, and then earned back 6,000 taels, and when he lost his hand, it was three times the profit, where to find this deal?

What?

What if the official is buying some wine bags and rice bags?

Not to mention those wine bags and rice bags, dare not follow the army to fight, after all, it is desperate.

Let's just say that the other party is really a wine bag and rice bag, Lu Yuan feels that in fact, he can pacify Wugang County by himself.

After all, the strength of a first-class master is not something to be said casually.

Therefore, it does not matter to him whether the strength of the officers and soldiers recruited is strong or not.

One person becomes an army, and the power returns to its own world, which is so cool.

"Yes, disciple, let's do it."

After several years of training, Zhou Qing is now twenty years old, and the whole person has matured a lot.

Especially since practicing martial arts, with the breakthrough of cultivation, he has now practiced the third meridian and ranks among the third-rate experts in the rivers and lakes.

The enhancement of strength brings about a change in temperament and the birth of self-confidence.

Now that Zhou Qing is released, he is also a heroic and extraordinary young man, who roams the rivers and lakes, and maybe he can still win the reputation of a young man.

Of course, with this strength, Lu Yuan definitely didn't worry about letting his apprentice out.

With the two-way action of Lu Yuan and Sun Siwen, their group of officials who went to Wugang County to take up their posts also quickly set up a framework and established a prototype.

Sun Siwen's students who failed the exam for a long time, some of them couldn't help but be moved for the sake of their future and official position, and chose to go to work with their teachers.

On Lu Yuan's side, with Zhou Qing's publicity, there were soon people who wanted to buy officials and came up.
