"Once the release is confirmed, it cannot be changed. Have you two adults thought about it?" Chen Qing asked with narrowed eyes.

Shen Yuan hesitated slightly, but Gu Beiquan curled his lips, "Uncle Ghost, are you willing to stay here? With Liuzhou's current reputation, just recruiting the population back is probably a huge undertaking. As time goes by, those rich households and wives will

After settling down in the neighboring state capital, the chance of coming back becomes even slimmer.

On the contrary, the situation is different in important counties in the region. Among the people who escaped from Liuzhou, there must have been many wealthy businessmen and wives who fled back to the county. After I took office, I stabilized them and made many achievements in taxation and education.

Is it your own?

Who wants to stay with this stupid boy in Liuzhou, where there is going to be a thunderstorm?

"This is also a helpless move, sir..." Gu Beiquan changed his previous smell of gunpowder and said seriously: "The two hundred Jinshi originally scheduled by the imperial court were diverted to other places in the south of the Yangtze River. Now there are less than a hundred in Liuzhou. As a result,

Some of the top candidates have been brought in to fill up the numbers. You can see how tight the manpower is. It would be inappropriate for the three of us to stay in the state capital."

"Master Shen also thinks so?" Chen Qing looked at Shen Yuan and asked.

Shen Yuan hesitated for a few seconds, and finally said: "It is indeed as Brother Gu said, and with the current situation in Liuzhou, you should not be very busy. When you are busy in the future, you want to recruit me to come back to help..."

"Eh..." Chen Qing stretched out her hand to interrupt: "There is no such thing."

He laid out the map and said directly: "If you want to go abroad now, then according to the rules, Luling County and Baishui County, the most important counties in Liuzhou, will be assigned to you. You will have to take charge of the local governance and cannot change it easily.

, If you want to stay, then assist the government honestly and honestly, I didn’t say that you can come back in the future if you leave now!”

The two of them were stunned for a moment. Seeing Chen Qing's aggressive look, they suddenly became suspicious.

Is there anything wrong with this kid?

If it were Liuzhou before, of course the two of them would have stayed to assist the government and gain power. In this situation, who do you show this to? Do you really think you can reverse the situation and rebuild Liuzhou?

Gu Beiquan looked amused and said quickly: "Since your Excellency has said so, let's let it be so!"

Shen Yuan glanced at Chen Qing, but in the end he didn't stay and said directly: "I want Baishui County!"

Gu Beiquan's eyes twitched, but he still didn't dare to argue with the other party. Baishui County is connected to the Liuzhou waterway. Although the wharf is not big, it can divert many cargo merchants. It is the most profitable county in Liuzhou.

Especially now that people from Liuzhou are moving out of town, more people will definitely go to Baishui County.

Chen Qing nodded: "In that case, Master Gu will go to Luling County?"

"That's all we can do..." Gu Beiquan took a breath and said.

He had researched Luling County before coming here and knew that Luling County was backed by the largest mountain range in Liuzhou and contained many precious medicinal materials and Linglu leather goods, which were also products that many merchants were keen on. In addition, Luling County had always

The culture and education have been very good in the past. If we do it in the past, maybe we can overcome the culture and education in Liuzhou.

When the time comes, the prefect of Liuzhou will be blamed for his poverty, and he will be promoted because of his cultural and educational achievements. Thinking about it...it's not bad.

"Then it's settled!" Chen Qing said with a smile: "These two counties are large counties. According to the previous practice, there are two county magistrates, two county lieutenants, and four edicts. They are all of the seventh rank and receive the official seal of the seventh rank.

Those who can register can register on their own. In addition, each county has four chief registers, those who are in the eighth rank, and those who have received the official seal of the eighth rank can register on their own!"

When a group of Jinshi heard this, they immediately looked at each other. This time, the imperial court only gave them rank official seals, but did not determine their official positions. Only when they got to the Chief Envoy did they find out that all Liuzhou personnel appointments this time were directly made by the Ministry of Personnel. Hosted by Chen Qing.

This is also the reason why everyone is aggrieved. This second-class crane tailman is not only several levels higher than them in rank, but he can also control their personnel. How unfair is it?

However, they were not angry at all. After the other party actually used their power, everyone was still uneasy, fearing that they would be assigned to a relatively poor county.

I thought the other party would allocate good places to his cronies, but I didn't expect it to be so casual?

So many people reacted and started fighting for it.

"The lower official is willing to take up the post of eunuch in Luling County!"

"I am willing to serve as the county captain of Baishui County!"

"I am willing to serve as the magistrate of Baishui County!"

A group of people came forward one after another, and suddenly lost the reserve of the previous scholars, and began to fight for it.

Even Liu Yiqi, who sounded like an elder at first, blushed and looked at Chen Qing with a pleading look in his eyes: "Master magistrate, you also know that Xianguan, Xianguan, I have been studying classics for many years, and I am best at literature and education. , then the position of teaching in Luling County is the most suitable for a lower official."

Seeing that this person has lowered his face and claimed to be a lower-ranking official, people around him secretly despised you. You were in your thirties before you took the imperial examination, and your ranking is not high. How can you say that you are good at literature and education?

However, at first glance, this person seemed to have some friendship with the person named Chen, and it was not easy for a group of people to quarrel with each other in person.

Chen Qing looked funny. This guy looked completely different from the one who taught him a lesson just now, but he didn't think that he would remember the favor he gave him this time.

With such a duplicitous character, when he arrived in Luling County, he would definitely try his best to keep the wife who had fled Liuzhou there, so as to protect his own political achievements and at the same time step on his superior, the prefect.

However, he already had a plan in his mind, but the other party took this into account and let him go...

"Brother Liu is right." Chen Qing nodded: "Brother Liu is very talented and has a solid foundation. It was thanks to your guidance in the Confucius Temple that I and Cui Yanzhang made further progress. Otherwise, I would not have been in the Imperial College. You really may not be able to pass the Jinshi exam this year!"

"Your Majesty, you're welcome." Liu Yiqi suddenly showed a proud look on his face when he saw the other party's expression. He still said a little modestly, "This is also because you are very qualified, my subordinates, and the help of my subordinates is limited."

"Master Liu, if you want to go to Luling County, then go. Does Mr. Gu have any objections?"

After Gu Beiquan determined his responsibilities, he didn't buy it much. He just curled his lips and said: "Since the distribution power is in Mr. Chen's hands, why bother asking me?"

"Oh, I'm just asking this symbolically. Since Mr. Gu said so, I won't ask you about the next few positions."

Gu Beiquan: "…….."

Seeing that Chen Qingzhen no longer asked him for suggestions and assigned other positions in Luling County in just a few seconds, his face turned pale with anger!

The villain succeeds, let’s see how long you can stay proud!!

Chen Qing was too lazy to pay attention to the other party, so Ma Liu assigned most of the official positions.

He is actually not very interested in this distribution right, and has never thought of using it as a favor. Whatever he does in the future will offend them, but he is too lazy to have a good relationship with them now.

In the distribution room, a familiar voice stammered: "Chen...Chen Qing...oh no, Mr. Chen, I...I want to apply for the post of Baishui County Chief Registrar!"

Chen Qing frowned and looked over, and then he was stunned. He recognized that person. He was his classmate in the Confucius Temple. The relationship was pretty good...

But just now, when those Jinshi targeted him, he stayed far away, for fear of letting people know that he was familiar with him. Now that he is asking for favors when he is divided into officials, is he thinking too much?

"It's not your turn..." Chen Qing was not polite and dismissed it directly.

The man's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and some Jinshi around him also sneered. This man was just a candidate for the exam, and he really wanted to compete with them for the position?

Although due to manpower shortage, these people have received the ninth-grade official seal and can theoretically be the chief registrar, but are they thinking too much about grabbing the chief registrar of Baishui County?

If they can be the chief registrar there, many people would rather work as a county magistrate farther away!

Finally, after being assigned to the back, Chen Qing directly assigned a remote place to the other party. The man looked at Chen Qing and did not dare to refute anything, but there was resentment in his eyes.

Chen Qing didn't care. If a person like you gives me a favor now, he will still resent you for other trivial things in the future. It's better to offend him now.

Finally, after assigning almost everyone, Chen Qing looked at a fat man who was hiding far away.

"Haitao, why are you hiding so far away?"

There were two acquaintances among the candidate candidates, both Liuzhou fellows who had once worked in the Confucius Temple. One was the one who had just been appointed to the official position, and the other was Zhou Haitao, who was hiding in the distance and observing him carefully.

The fat man didn't dare to approach him just now for fear of being targeted, but he did have a conscience and knew to wink at him secretly, reminding him that Shen No. 2 had a better background.

"Hehe... Aren't you afraid of causing trouble to the adults?" Zhou Haitao stepped forward cautiously and said with a smile: "The adults just give me any place, I don't choose."

This is actually true. In fact, he no longer wants to take the exam. He plans to go back to his hometown and ask his family to donate officials. However, the officials donated with money are probably in very remote locations. He did not expect to take advantage of this east wind to return to Liuzhou this time.

Be an official.

Even if he is a junior official of the ninth grade of Zhima, he is very satisfied. It doesn't matter which county he is assigned to, he can take his father over and enjoy the happiness.

"Would you like to stay?"

"Ah?" Zhou Haitao was stunned, never expecting that the other party would ask this.

"If you are willing to stay in Liuzhou Prefecture, I will allow you to experience the position of Secretary and be in charge of the cashier's affairs in the government, which will be easier. If you still want to go to another county, you can choose one of these four counties to do so.

County captain, make your own choice."

Such blatant treatment of acquaintances caused a group of Jinshi to twitch in their faces and secretly said: He is indeed a sycophant!

After Zhou Haitao heard clearly, he immediately became entangled. He knew that Chen Qing was taking care of him, but the other party gave him the option of staying in Liuzhou, which made him a little difficult. In fact, staying in Liuzhou was fine, but he felt that Liuzhou was like this now, and he was afraid

I don’t dare to take my family members over easily.

Chen Qing saw that the other party was struggling and did not push him. Although he had a good relationship with Fatty Zhou, he felt that he had already done his job. If he was willing to stay, he would help him. If he was not willing, he would not force it.

After all, I don’t expect the other party to be a talented person.

The best internal assistant in his heart is Wei Gongcheng of the Yuchi family.

I have an ideal priesthood that I reserve for the other party...

But he must have agreed to his recruitment, right? Why hasn’t he arrived yet?

----------------------------------------

At this time, Wei Gongcheng, whom Chen Qing was thinking about, had actually arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, but the people following him made him a little confused.

He came here with Master Mu Hongqing, a scholar. Since he was disabled and could not move, Master Mu Hongqing kindly asked his disciples to escort him to Liuzhou.

However, there was one more person in the escort team that made Wei Gongcheng a little confused.
