Chapter 177: The Death of the Literati

Dongping Mansion has now been renamed Yunzhou, and Zhu Wu, the military division of the Shenji, is the governor.

Desperate Saburo Shixiu is the governor of Jeju, and the iron-faced face Bae Xuan is the governor of Shanzhou.

But these three people alone can't take charge of the affairs of a state, and in order to cope with these heavy state affairs, it is better to promote some scholars.

Zhu Wu also set up a recruitment list, but there were few applicants, and most of them were down-and-out sour talents, with average talents, and they had the scholarly habits that the Zhao family was used to.

After taking office, he didn't do anything, only left the work to the small officials, and just enjoyed every day.

After Ghost Li found out, he directly asked the dog to be cut down and gave the official position to the little official.

"Brother Zhu Wu, let's not engage in the Zhao family's business, only those who can work can be officials, and those who can't work can have nothing to do with us, no matter how talented they are."

"If you lack men, take them all and let them work."

"If you do a good job, you will be rewarded, but if you don't do well...... "Ghost Li slashed down with his big hand, "Then cut off the head!" ”

"A certain family is a rough person, and he doesn't know how to cultivate talents, so he has to grab those who have been trained by others, and just use them directly."

"There are also many academies in the local area, you don't care if they are talents or talents, as long as you can read and write, you will use them first."

Zhu Wu was dumbfounded when he heard it, and he couldn't even say anything.

"Brother, don't laugh!"

"This twisted melon is not sweet, we still need to be polite to the literati."

"If my brother is Corporal Ken Lixian, and then let people publicize some reputation, there will definitely be that unambitious scholar to vote."

Ghost Li sneered:

"Corporal Bird Lixian!"

"A certain family will only put a knife on their necks and ask them if they are working, but they don't know how to be polite to the corporal!"

"This is to let them be officials, not to harm them, and take Joe there one by one!"

"I'll do it for their officials, and then I'm going to beg them, who is used to their stinky problems?"

"You have to do the other way around, let those who want to be officials come and beg, so it makes sense!"

Ghost Li couldn't help but say, so he asked people to arrest those literati.

The original government has been destroyed, and now I have found a big house and temporarily served as a yamen.

The literati were caught in this garden, surrounded by a group of wolf-like sergeants, and they trembled at the end of the day, not knowing the purpose of the leader of the thieves.

This Zhao and Song Dynasty literary style was at its peak, there were many rich families in the city, and there were many people who studied literature.

Li Gui asked people to gather fifty people and send them into the garden, and he personally "persuaded them to surrender".

He stopped in front of the crowd, and without talking nonsense, he said directly:

"A certain family occupies the land of Sanzhou, and now there is a shortage of people."

"Who are you waiting for who wants to be an official, you might as well come forward and sign up."

"As long as the assessment is passed, there is no need for the imperial examination, and the appointment will be made as appropriate."

"Even if you can't pass the assessment, you can also enter the yamen to be a small official, and you won't waste your talents."

The literati looked at each other, and only then did they understand that this was a thief who came to find them, and immediately straightened their waists again.

The literati's brain turns fast, and it is easy to think too much.

One of them, who wanted to show his integrity, cried out:

"How can I be a thief when I wait for the world to receive the favor of the country?"

Li Ghost glanced at him, and with a hook of his finger, a guard stepped forward, pulled the idiot out of the crowd, pulled him to the front of the team, and stabbed him down.

With a "click", the head of the clever guy rolled on the ground with a "gurgle".

Where had the literati seen this, and when they saw this man's head rolling and the blood still spurting freely behind him, they screamed and retreated as if avoiding snakes and scorpions, huddled into a ball, and half of the garden was vacated.

Everyone was panicked and anxious, and there was a mess.

That's not right!

According to the normal process, it should not be the head of the thief who finds himself a celebrity and a good ancestor, explaining how many generations of Li Shimin's grandson, how orthodox, and how he can't be regarded as a thief.

In other words, he had a vision when he was born, had great ambitions, and had the ambition to win the Central Plains, and persuaded everyone to act in accordance with the sky and be a founding hero.

No matter how bad it is, he also scolded a few words of the faint monarch and the traitorous ministers who brought disaster to the country, he wanted to clear the king's side and give everyone a step.

The worst is the worst, and you should put out the gold, silver, and beautiful women!

When he has done enough of these gestures, everyone's faces have been fully respected, and there are steps to convince themselves, then everything will be negotiable.

When the time comes, hello, hello, everyone, even if you are an official under him for two days, it will be nothing.

But he killed people when he came up, but what kind of routine was it?

Ghost Li didn't care about this, just watched there, and when the riot subsided slightly, he pointed his finger and asked one by one from left to right, from front to back.

"Would you like to do something for someone?"

As long as the person refused, or shook his head, or even hesitated for a long time, Ghost Li's fingers hooked.

Then the guard went forward, and took the warrior out, and cut him down in public.

Only three or five were cut, and the rest fell to the ground in one fell to the ground, calling the lord.

After everyone asked, Ghost Li laughed, looked at the scholar who was pouting and kowtowing all over the ground, and shouted proudly:

"All the talents in the world are in my place!"

At that moment, he asked Zhu Wu to take these people down to wash and change their pants first, and then find time for assessment, and distribute them according to the situation, to see whether they were officials or officials.

He continued with the next batch of "interviews".

Li Ghost is very efficient, and the process is the same every time, first killing chickens and monkeys, and then asking them one by one, it is like an assembly line operation, and in one day, he recruited all the literati in the city.

As the "cost" of the interview, it is the dozens of heads that have become the Beijing view and are placed at the gate of the new yamen.

Ghost Li said very clearly, if you do a good job, you will be rewarded, and if you do not do a good job, or if you deliberately fool you, you will contribute to this Jingguan.

His "interview" method is easy to learn and easy to master, and those guards only watched it once, and they learned it completely.

Li Gui sent them to three states and counties respectively to act as "interviewers".

This method is very good, but in just a few days, the talents from all over the country have "come to vote", whether they are officials or officials, they are not picky.

All of a sudden, in the three states under the command of Ghost Li, there was a phenomenon of "redundant officials and redundant officials".

It's not good!

In order to solve the work problems of these many young heroes, Li Gui specially convened a meeting of the brothers and decided to learn the lessons of the day and directly control the countryside by Liangshan.

In the past, the royal power did not go to the countryside, and from today on, all rural officials must be directly dispatched by Liangshan.

Not only did these literati have to go to the countryside to train again, but all the soldiers who were disabled on the battlefield were also assigned to the countryside to serve as local officials.

These people are not permanently rooted in the countryside, and if they have meritorious deeds, they can also be promoted upwards and transferred to the county seat or state capital.

Even if there is no meritorious service, it must be rotated every three or five years, and transferred between different townships and counties to avoid colluding with each other and dominating one side.
