Fantasy Three Kingdoms: Four knots in Taoyuan at the beginning

Chapter 176 Chapter 173

So Chen Yuan didn't refute Cai Yong, the old man will probably retire in the academy in the future, as long as he is happy, why bother to forcibly correct him.

After seeing the magic of printing, Liu Bei and Cai Yong paid more attention to this set of movable type than Chen Yuan.

Including these craftsmen, they are all regarded as key figures and protected.

Liu Bei designated a special place and sent heavy troops to protect it, so that these craftsmen could concentrate on making movable type and printed books.

Print as many books as possible, the more the better.

Of course, the most important task is to quickly print a thousand copies of the Three-Character Classic and the Thousand-Character Classic to invite powerful families and talents from all over the world.

This requires brainstorming to provide a list.

Although Chen Yuan is known as the hero record, he can't remember many people who are not so famous.

Just because someone isn't famous doesn't mean he isn't great.

For example, Shanyang Li Jin is not that famous, but his ability is very powerful.

The tyrannical talent who repelled Lu Bu's attack, and this person seems to have swept up the Western Regions later.

Wouldn't it be a pity to live in Sanyang if such talents don't come and make use of their strengths.

Once the first step is planned, it is the second step.

The world's literati debating conference, and the world's number one martial arts conference.

If these two conferences want to attract people, they must come up with generous rewards.

"Teacher, brother, this is what I think. A generous reward is nothing more than fame and fortune, so give them fame and fortune."

"Just use fame and fortune to attract them."

"Scholars need fame, warriors need profit."

"Therefore, for the scribes, we only need a few well-known celebrities from Jingzhou to participate, and I think a large number of scribes will come to participate.

"Samurai, as long as you come to participate, you can join our Jingzhou Army regardless of whether you can win or not. Those who get the ranking will be rewarded even more. The top 1 starters, the top [-] starters, and the top ten starters. , No.[-] can be appointed as the captain. What do you think, brother?"

This reward is not insignificant.

The school lieutenant is already an official position of two thousand stones, and he has reached the sky in one step.

Liu Bei thought for a while: "Does the restriction restrict the participation of our lieutenant generals?"

Chen Yuan shook his head: "The lieutenant generals of our army are willing to participate as much as they want, and the rewards are the same."

The reason why Chen Yuan set the No.1 reward to the school lieutenant was because a school lieutenant would not lead more than three thousand troops at most.

A school lieutenant, even if he has no military acumen, is only powerful enough to lead [-] soldiers.

At least being a vanguard general is enough.

Whether you have a military mind or not will not affect the overall situation.

Moreover, as a warrior, being able to ascend to the sky and take the position of colonel in one step with the help of force in his hands, even for Lu Bu, he was very satisfied.

Liu Bei nodded without objecting.

After all, due to seniority issues, some of the talents who joined later could not be promoted to high positions immediately. Now that a good opportunity has come, it depends on whether they can grasp it.

Cai Yong interjected: "Zichu said that the reputation of literati is good, but in order to show that they treat everyone equally, they need to be rewarded."

As soon as Cai Yong reminded him, Chen Yuan immediately came to his senses.

That's right, whether someone wants it is one thing, but whether you give it or not is another thing.

The samurai rewards are so generous, if there is no reward for the scribes, there will definitely be complaints.

It is not ruled out that some scribes just want to make a name, and then wait for it?
People also want to be officials.

Chen Yuan quickly agreed: "What the teacher said is very good, if the teacher hadn't reminded him, Yuan would have been wrong."

Then I discussed it with Liu Bei, and the scribes cannot simply use their names to hold official positions.

Because some people are not suitable for being an official.

Literary talents like Cai Yong, for example, are most suitable for writing books and histories to establish words.

Chen Yuan thought for a while and said to Liu Bei: "Brother, it's better than this, but all scribes who come to participate can join Juying Pavilion and become Juying Pavilion Bachelors with their consent. The position is to receive five hundred shi. Juyingge bachelors who pass the examination can go to Jingzhou, Juyingge bachelors have the right to observe politics, and if they want to start an official, they will be county magistrates. What do you think?"

Liu Bei thought for a while and asked Cai Yong for his opinion.

Cai Yong nodded: "Very good, with this move and the order to seek talents, Jingzhou will not lack talents."

After completing the first two steps, Cai Yong left.

Because of the matter of destroying the Cai family, Cai Yong did not want to participate.

Cai Yong is a kind person, so naturally he would not participate in this kind of family destruction.

But he also knew that the Cai family was a major obstacle for Liu Bei to control Jingzhou.

The Cai family didn't want to join Liu Bei's side, so getting rid of them was the best choice.

As for the Cai family's resistance?

I was still worried about this Cai Yong, but after learning about the strength of Liu Bei's subordinates, I suddenly lost this idea.

With such a powerful strength, not to mention the Cai family, even the Yuan family in Runan is not invincible.

No matter how strong the Cai family is, can it be stronger than the Runan Yuan family?

Naturally it is impossible.

The Cai family is nothing more than the crown of Nanzhou, and this is due to others.

In terms of actual strength, how is the Changsha Liu family weak?

But they are relatives of the Han family, so they don't want to fight for these false names.

How can Nanzhou's crown compare to the world's crown?

The Yuan family in Runan is truly number one in the world, and the only person who can compete with it is the Hongnong Yang family.

After Cai Yong left, Chen Yuan and Liu Bei walked into a secret room and began to discuss the matter of destroying Cai.

This kind of confidential matter naturally needs to be kept secret.

As the saying goes, if the ruler is not secret, he will lose his ministers, if his ministers are not secret, he will lose his body, and if his secrets are not secret, he will be harmed. Therefore, a gentleman is careful and does not come out.

"Brother, I wonder if Xianhe can send a message back?"

Liu Bei nodded: "The matter of Luoyang has been completed. Xianhe sent back news that as long as a comet hits the moon, the position of Zhang Wenzhi's three princes will definitely be lost."

Chen Yuan stroked his smooth chin: "Brother, have you checked out the power of the Cai family?"

Liu Bei said: "Zhicai is responsible for this matter, I'll call Zhicai here."

It didn't take long for Xi Zhi to come to the secret room.

"I have met the lord, Zichu."

Liu Bei waved his hand: "You don't need to be polite, how are you investigating the influence of the Cai family?"

Xi Zhicai's expression immediately changed when he heard the words: "My lord, if you don't check, you won't know. This investigation is really shocking."

"Let's not talk about the wealth of the Cai family, just looking at how rich the Cai family can build a city in Caizhou."

"Money is one of them. The Cai family hoards a lot of grain. According to my investigation, the grain hoarded in Caizhou is no less than [-] shi, enough for the people of Caizhou to eat for more than half a year."

"The other is the servants of the Cai family. There are about 5000 servants, and the Cai family seems to have stockpiled a lot of weapons. In the event of a war, the Cai family can arm no less than [-] soldiers."

"In addition, there are no less than dozens of tycoons in Jingzhou who are close to the Cai family, and the grand master Liu Yan is also related to the Cai family. Once we want to eradicate the Cai family, all these need to be considered."

In short, in a word, the Cai family is rich, powerful, and armed, and it is not easy to deal with.
