I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 78, smart businessman
Cui Lie said angrily: "You are not messing around, when did the old man say that he would give up Chang'an City!"

"The old man just wants the court to wipe out the Yellow Turban bandits first and then deal with the Xiliang bandits! There are priorities. As an official of the court, don't you even understand this!"

Tao Qian sneered and said, "Liangzhou is gone, and the army has also been transferred to Jizhou. Why do you ask the imperial court to deal with the 10 rebels in Xiliang!"

Cui Lie was furious and said: "If it weren't for your incompetence, what would the court need to discuss!"

Tao Qian really had no way to refute this point, he could only knelt down and said: "I am willing to take the blame and make meritorious service, and then go to the Xiliang battlefield. As for the battle in Jizhou, I think Fu Zhoumu has done a good job!"

Cui Lie really wants to kill Tao Qian now, but he is still thinking about Xiliang, what is important now is Jizhou!
Shang Shuling Lu Zhi also said: "I think there is no war in Jizhou now. Fu Zhoumu has trapped the Yellow Turban Bandits on the Black Mountain. It is difficult to pose a threat to Jizhou. Just maintain the status quo. Don't appease or destroy them. Wait until the imperial court wipes out the West. After the cold thieves, let's deal with these yellow turban thieves!"

Lu Zhi knew that it was impossible to appease Zhang Yan, and based on what they did in Jizhou, it was impossible for the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty to let Zhang Yan and the yellow scarf thieves go!
Emperor Ling nodded when he heard this, and he can accept this proposal, as long as he is not allowed to pay for the war again!
He Jin said: "But Fu Bian is the shepherd of Jizhou, and he wants to appease the Yellow Turban Bandit. I'm afraid he won't obey the imperial court's order!"

Cui Lie said: "I am willing to be a shepherd of Jizhou, and I will definitely help the court to restore peace to Jizhou!"

Wei Wei Liu Ting came out of the class and said: "Situ has forgotten the court's 'three mutual laws'!"

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were clear regulations on the avoidance of native place of officials.The recusal system is not only strictly enforced, but the scope of recusal continues to expand.In addition to the need for local governors to avoid their origins, married families must also avoid each other's origins, and people from two states are not allowed to visit each other.Since then, the taboo has become stricter, and even the "three mutual laws" have been formulated.

There is a lack of detailed records of the specific content of the 'Three Mutual Laws' in historical records.Its outline is: 'If a person from state A is an official in state B, and a person from state B is an official in state C, then people from state C must avoid all three states of A, B, and C. 'Because of the staggered avoidance stipulated in the 'Three Mutual Laws', the taboos are too strict, often resulting in a difficult situation in selection.For example, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the chiefs of Youzhou and Jizhou once "didn't make up for a long time". 'The election of the three prefectures is uncertain for more than a month'.The reason why it has lasted for a long time is because "to avoid the three mutuals, there are bans in eleven states, and only two states should be taken."That is to say, due to the reason of avoiding the "three mutuals", people from [-] of the [-] states in the country are not allowed to serve as the governors of Youzhou and Jizhou. "

Cui Lie said: "The imperial court is in a crisis of life and death, so of course it is urgent to follow the power!"

"The imperial court is not in such a crisis as Situ said, and the 'Three Mutual Laws' must be followed!" Lingdi looked at the furious Cui Lie, and was even more worried that he would bring all the soldiers in Jizhou to fight Zhang Yan. Too late!
Grand Changqiu Zhao Zhong came out and said, "The servant recommended Dong Zhuo, the former general, as the shepherd of Jizhou. With Dong Zhuo here, I will definitely return your majesty to a peaceful Jizhou!"

Zhao Zhong suffered heavy losses in the last wave of Yellow Turban Rebellion. Even his farm house was used by Fu Bian to resettle refugees. He hated Fu Bian deeply.Now that he has the opportunity to kick Fu Bian out of Jizhou, he will naturally act immediately. The most important thing is that Jizhou still has millions of acres of unclaimed land. It is not easy to get a million fertile land, so Zhao Zhong is bound to win the position of Jizhou Mu!
"I recommend Zongzheng Liu Yan as the shepherd of Jizhou!" Grand Tutor Yuan Kai said immediately.

"I think Wang Yun, the minister, has rich experience as an official and can serve as Jizhou Mu!" General He Jun said.

Zhao Zhong's actions immediately reminded the other civil and military officials that the most important thing now is not to appease the Yellow Turban Bandits, but to grab the position of Jizhou Mu. Just kidding, the current position is worth hundreds of millions of dollars!Even if you don’t make money, if you control Jizhou, you will control the money and food of the court. Judging from the money and food handed in by Jizhou this year, the money and food handed over by Jizhou next year can account for more than 4% of the court’s income.

Emperor Ling looked at the noisy civil and military officials with a sneer. Sure enough, serving the country and the people is their hypocritical illusion. The current quarrel is the civil and military officials he knows, but Lingdi also knows the importance of Jizhou now. I would rather let Fu Bian continue to lead Jizhou Mu in the position than let these people take the position!
"Jizhou Mu Fu Bian has done a good job, let him continue to work and retire!"

After speaking, Emperor Ling shook his sleeves and left!

The rest of the civil and military officials glanced at each other and could only leave!

Zhao Zhong trotted over to the side of Emperor Ling and whispered: "Your Majesty, the reason for this servant is to pay [-] million yuan to buy the position of Jizhou Mu!"

He still doesn't want to give up the position of Jizhou Mu. Even if he only earns for one year, he can still earn 10 billion yuan with his ability. Today's world has lost fat meat like Jizhou. If he is slow to start, Jizhou's The land must be annexed by the powerful and noble people.

Emperor Ling took out a jade bottle from his sleeve, drank some water and said with a smile, "I believe in your skills in making money, but the 7 million yuan is not a little short! You must know that even under the tax reduction and exemption, Fu Biandu gave me money and food worth [-] million!"

Zhao Zhong said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the money is going into the national treasury. How can the three princes and nine ministers of the imperial court spend it on His Majesty! The slaves are willing to give 2 million yuan to His Majesty's Wanjintang alone!"

Zhang Rang, who was serving Emperor Ling, was stunned, Zhao Zhong didn't want to live anymore!He actually wants to take out all the family property!

But Emperor Ling patted Zhao Zhong's body and said: "Jizhou's environment is complicated, you can't grasp it, you'd better stay with me and earn some small money, don't think about Jizhou's affairs, I don't want another bull horn to appear! "

Emperor Ling was a smart businessman. After the Yellow Turban Uprising was put down, in order to make money, he made Zhao Zhong a chariot general and appraised meritorious officials.Let yourself earn hundreds of millions of money.

However, because they arranged some rich wine bags and rice bags to be scraped off in Jizhou, the Zhang Niujiao Rebellion broke out in Jizhou. Big hair!

So this time Lingdi will not let Zhao Zhong intervene in Jizhou's affairs, and if there is another Yellow Turban Uprising, his Wanjintang is really worth it.

For the current Emperor Ling, as long as the courtiers don't raise money with him, they are loyal ministers. Jizhou still let Fu Bian, a lunatic who doesn't make money, stay here!
