As soon as these words came out, the expressions on the faces of the twenty or thirty celebrities present were different. Some looked very excited, while others were indifferent. However, no one spoke, and the hall was quiet for a while.
For a long time, Guan Ning and Bing Yuan raised their hands together and said: "We are not talented in the world. We are just bachelors who occasionally write and study Confucian classics. As for the management of the local area, I am afraid that we are not competent. Please forgive me."
.”
Gao Fei smiled, Guan Ning and Bing Yuan's rejection had been expected by him, and he immediately said: "It doesn't matter, both gentlemen are both great scholars in the world. Since you want to concentrate on studying Confucian classics, I won't force it, but there is still one thing I hope for."
You two gentlemen can agree."
Guan Ning said: "Sir, please speak!"
"Liaodong is located in a remote area. Although the people's customs are simple, they are far away from Wang Hua. The people do not know much about the classics of many sages. I would like to ask the two gentlemen to stay in Juxian Hall to teach Liaodong's scholars after it is established.
Scholars, in order to promote the study of classics. Once the Central Plains is stabilized, if the two gentlemen want to leave Liaodong, I will personally escort the two gentlemen to leave, and as long as they are in Liaodong for a day, I will take good care of the two gentlemen and their families.
.I wonder if you two gentlemen can agree to this small request of mine?"
Bingyuan and Guan Ning looked at each other, and there was a consensus in their eyes. They immediately raised their hands and said: "If the two of us reject you again, it will be disrespectful. You can show such great love to the people. It is indeed true."
It is a blessing to the people of Liaodong, and we are willing to stay in the Juxian Hall to teach the studious people of Liaodong."
"Haha, great." Gao Fei smiled.
At this time, Guoyuan cupped his hands and said: "Although Zini has only been in Liaodong for a few days, you can hear people praising you everywhere you go. Zini is really impressed by how much you love the people. Zini is not talented.
I am willing to use what I have learned throughout my life to manage the place for you, so that the people of Liaodong can live and work in peace and contentment."
After hearing this, Gao Fei laughed and said: "It's great. With Guo Zini stepping forward to help, I believe Liaodong will definitely be prosperous in the future."
"Sir, I am also willing to help you!"
"I do too!"
…
After Guoyuan, more than 20 local celebrities agreed to Gao Fei's appointment. For Gao Fei, this was an extremely gratifying thing.
Gao Fei picked up the wine baron in front of him and glanced at Tian Feng sitting aside. He had to admire Tian Feng's ability to recruit talents. He immediately solved the vacancy of the county magistrate, and the remaining people could also
He served as civil servants at all levels in the prefect's mansion. In this way, Liaodong's civil service system was officially established.
"Gentlemen, please drink to your heart's content today and you won't come home until you're drunk!" Gao Fei raised the wine baron forward and shouted happily.
The next day, Gao Fei learned from Tian Feng that there were more than 30,000 people who had taken refuge from Qingzhou. Under the reasonable arrangements of Dashi County Magistrate Liao Hua, more than 30,000 people were stationed in Dashi County.
Within the territory, the population of Dashi County was enriched at once. In addition, he put Tian Feng in charge of the establishment of the Juxian Pavilion, re-selected the site, and hired people who were already in leisure time as construction workers. At the same time, the recruitment notice in the prefecture was
He also ordered people to distribute them to various counties.
After Gao Fei finished these things, he went to the military camp outside the city alone. When he walked to the city gate, he saw many people watching the recruitment notice posted on the city wall, and he felt very happy in his heart.
Just as he was about to take off his legs and continue walking forward, he heard a rough voice coming from behind: "Everyone who comes to join the army will be rewarded with a hundred coins, and those who are proficient in bow and horse can directly take up positions at all levels in the army. God!"
Can there be such good things down there? Humph! I think these are all lies, you all should disperse, there is nothing to see!"
The people watching also began to sigh, as if they didn't believe the recruitment notice, and began to disperse one after another.
Gao Fei turned around and saw a big man driving away the people who were watching. He immediately squeezed through the crowd, looked at the big man who was driving away the people in front of him, and asked directly: "Is that what you said just now?
"
The big man's skin showed a healthy bronze color, and his face was as sharp as a knife and an axe. The two eyebrows were thick and heavy, and they were slanted upwards, giving a sharp edge like a sword. Underneath, there was a pair of slightly sunken eyebrows.
There were two piercing eyes in his eyes. He was of medium height, about the same height as Gao Fei. His well-proportioned and slender torso and broad shoulders showed that he had a strong physique and could withstand all kinds of wandering life.
Hardships and climate changes. Only the bottom two buttons of his dusty blouse were buttoned, revealing his broad and strong chest. He glanced at Gao Fei and said angrily: "So what?"
?”
Gao Fei chuckled and asked, "This is a notice posted by the Prefect's Mansion. When you said that, didn't you clearly show that you don't believe the Prefect?"
"Hmph! Isn't this obvious? The notice clearly states that anyone who joins the army will be given a hundred coins first, and those who are skilled in bow and horse can also serve in the military. Such a good thing, I have been traveling around the world for many years, and I still get it from
I have never encountered it before. There is no free lunch in the world. Maybe the governor wants to recruit slaves and is trying to deceive everyone. I would not believe such a good thing." The big man folded his arms in front of his chest.
He raised his face arrogantly and looked very arrogant, ignoring everyone present.
Gao Fei looked around and saw that more and more onlookers were gathering, and their faces were full of doubts. He heard that the big man's accent was not from Liaodong, so he asked: "From your accent, you are not from Liaodong, right?"
"Of course not, I came to seek refuge from Qingzhou."
"Oh, they are from Qingzhou." Gao Fei looked around and saw that most of the people were saluting, and their bodies were covered with dust, looking tired, so he asked, "You all came to seek refuge from Qingzhou.
?"
Everyone nodded and said nothing.
Gao Fei stretched out his finger and pointed at a beam one foot long and about fifty centimeters thick beside the city gate. He turned to the big man and said, "Everything in the notice is true, and there is no lie. If you can make this beam
If you lift it from the city gate here to the west gate, and then back here from the west gate, I will reward you with ten thousand coins, how about it?"
The big man took a look at Gao Fei, who was wearing a fancy outfit. Seeing that Gao Fei was in high spirits, with a stern face, and a strong aura about him, he asked: "You... are you the prefect?"
Gao Fei nodded heavily and said loudly: "Yes, I am the Governor of Liaodong, General Anbei, and Marquis of Xiangping Gao Fei. I keep my word. If you can do as I say, I will definitely reward you with ten thousand coins.
I also want you Qingzhou people who have come to take refuge to see whether the official document issued by my Liaodong Prefecture is a lie or whether it is true."
Before the big man could answer, Gao Fei turned around and squeezed out of the crowd, shouting to the soldiers guarding the city gate: "Go to the military camp and ask Zhang He, the commander-in-chief, to move the recruitment office to the east gate, and then ask him to
Bring all the money you have prepared, and as long as you join the army, you will receive money for each person who joins!"
"promise!"
The big man and the people around him heard Gao Fei say such words. They had also heard about Gao Fei's reputation, but they didn't expect that the person standing in front of them was the prefect, and their eyes showed admiration.
"Okay! Then I'll let you see what I can do, see if I can transport the beam back and forth in the city, and test your integrity!" The big man rolled up his sleeves, revealing two strong arms.
Pushed out the crowd.
Gao Fei saw the big man walking towards the beam, and then picked it up with both hands. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he nodded with satisfaction, and thought silently in his heart: "It seems that I saw it right.
He is indeed a strong man. It would be great if there were more people like him in the army."
The big man picked up the beam, which weighed almost three hundred kilograms, and put it on his shoulders. Without taking a step forward, a deep footprint would be left on the ground. But on his face
But he didn't show any sign of struggling, and instead smiled at Gao Fei and said: "Master Taishou, if I can lift this beam back and forth, and you really give me ten thousand dollars, then I will join your army, not only
I and my fellow villagers will all participate. However, you must let me be a military commander or a captain. With my ability, even a general is more than enough!"
"Haha, what a big tone. This beam weighs at least three hundred pounds. Even if you lift the beam back and forth, you are only a strong man at best. If you want to be a captain, you must have extraordinary strength.
You have martial arts, and are skilled in bow and horse, otherwise, I won't let you be a village commander!" Gao Fei had already seen the pride in this big man, and at the same time wanted to see what he was capable of, so he went to let you
The man's name is Zhang He, and one of the purposes is to let this big man compete with Zhang He for a while.
The big man snorted coldly and shouted loudly: "Don't underestimate me. When I come back, I will let you see how powerful I am. Let you see if I am worthy of being a general!"
As soon as the voice fell, he tossed his head, carried the thick beam and ran towards the west gate of Xiangping, and his speed was faster than ordinary people. The onlookers were so surprised that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.
About twenty minutes later, the big man was sweating profusely and carrying the beam back to the original place. A little out of breath, he put the beam back to the original place, wiped the sweat from his face, and walked straight to Gao Fei's side.
, only to find that there was a group of people around Gao Fei. A man wearing armor behind him was staring at him with a pair of cold eyes, and there was a table next to him with a big flag on it that said "Recruitment"
Three words: "place".
The big man took a deep breath, spread his hands forward, and shouted to Gao Fei: "Give me money! Ten thousand!"
Gao Fei asked Zhang He to give the 10,000 yuan he had prepared to the big man. He was full of admiration and couldn't help but exclaimed: "He is a real warrior!"
(Author's note: Well... there was a small bug in the previous chapter. When describing the pastoral scenery, corn was also included. Corn is native to America and was only introduced to China in the 16th century. This crop did not exist at this time.
So I would like to correct it here, because it seems that modifications are not allowed in the month when the VIP chapter is released. I will pay attention to some common sense in this regard in the future. Please forgive me, readers.)
