A Millennium Aristocratic Family Starting from the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 98 Recruitment Order

Yiwu promised to the Marquis of Qin that as long as he was sent back to China to inherit the position of Marquis of Jin, he would give the land of Hedong to Qin as a gift.And just in case, Yiwu also promised to the powerful officials in the country that as long as he ascended the throne as Marquis of Jin, he would give them a fiefdom.

In order to successfully ascend the throne, Yiwu can be said to bet on both ends.

With the help of the Marquis of Qin, Yiwu returned to the state of Jin under the escort of the army.Then he succeeded as the monarch. Next, the Marquis of Jin began to show off his operations. First, he used the power of the Marquis of Qin to control the country, suppressed the domestic officials, and never mentioned the so-called fief.

And took the opportunity to kill the Qing Shi who killed the former Marquis of Jin with an excuse, and completely controlled the government.

Qin Hou watched Jin Hou's operation from the side, and supported Jin Hou.Watching him cut off the wings of domestic nobles, control the government, and secure the position of Marquis of Jin.But he never thought that the Marquis of Jin never thought of giving the land of Hedong to the Marquis of Qin from the beginning to the end.

After he completely settled down as the Marquis of Jin, he immediately turned his face and completely denied the land of Hedong that he had promised before, so the Marquis of Qin could only lead his army back to the country.Qin Hou was deceived by him just like those nobles and nobles before.

Such a coquettish operation by the Marquis of Jin surprised a large number of vassal states, and even gave up the enthusiasm of many vassals to escort the sons of other countries back home.Qin Hou took great pains to escort the son of another country back to his country, but he was treated like a fool in the end.

All the big countries in the world are disturbed, which gives Huai country a chance to develop with peace of mind.

Since Wang Yong ascended the throne, there have been various natural disasters in the world. Although Huai country was not affected much because of the protection of the star observatory, there was a problem in Huaihe River.

The heavy rain in the upper reaches of the Huaihe River caused frequent floods in the Huaihe River, and even the river diverted.

However, in the Huai country, there are no officials who are good at water control.Wang Yong issued an edict to search for good ministers for water control all over the country, but none of them came.Flood control is such a difficult project that not everyone can do it well.

If it is cured, the merits are immeasurable, but if it is not cured, it will be cool.

Due to the abundant rainfall in Huai River, the flooding of Huai River, Surabaya River, and Yi River, etc., Wang Yong had to use the effect of the observatory. Every time he used it, he would consume a lot of luck, and every time he used it, it would be harmful to his body. cause some damage.

After he couldn't find a suitable minister capable of controlling water, Wang Yong suddenly remembered the artifact of destiny passed down by his family.Immediately came to the ancestral temple, worshiped, and then chose to use the recruitment order.

I saw the token in his hand instantly turned into a cloud of green smoke, and then went straight into the blue sky and disappeared.Wang Yong was ambivalent about the disappearance of the recruiting order, but after looking at it for a while, he didn't find anything, let alone any great sages coming out.

However, his ancestors spoke convincingly, and he still had the master's ring artifact in his hand, which made Wang Yong believe in the power of these destiny artifacts, so after worshiping his ancestors, Wang Yong returned to the palace.

In the cave world, Zijue who was sleeping was suddenly awakened.

[Your descendants use the recruitment order to successfully recruit nine-star great sages, and your family's influence on history will increase. 】

Hearing this system prompt, Zijue was slightly taken aback. His descendant was so lucky. Although the recruitment order can recruit good talents, the recruited people also have their own advantages and disadvantages. The lowest three stars and the highest ten stars.The higher the star rating, the lower the chance.

His descendant actually recruited a nine-star great sage at one time. You must know that there are not many talents of this level, even in the long history of the vast sea.

As for ten stars, it is even rarer.But each of them is a great talent who can stabilize the country and rule the world.

A person with three stars can govern a county, a person with five stars can govern a county, a person with six stars can be a court official, a person with seven stars can be a prime minister, and a person with eight or more stars can be a prime minister.

After he returned to the palace, not long after, several attendants rushed over and reported to him: "Your Majesty, you have put up a list to recruit everyone for water control, and one of them has just signed up!"

"Is there a great sage coming? Bring him here quickly!" Wang Yong's face was overjoyed. Just after using the recruitment order, someone came, and the sage recruited this time must be this person.

"Ke Guojun" several attendants hesitated.

"But what?" Wang Yong asked.

"Your Majesty, but that man is short in stature, bald, and very ugly, how could he be a great sage?" said a guard next to him.

"How can you judge people by their appearance? Hurry up and invite people here, don't be rude!" Wang Yong was furious when he heard this.

Several guards turned pale with fright, quickly bowed and saluted, then hurried to the palace gate, and respectfully invited the man back.After entering the main hall, Wang Yong looked at the man, and he told the guards that this man was indeed ugly.

He is more than five feet tall, with thinning and disheveled hair, looks a little scruffy, and looks a little ugly, but his eyes are piercing, and he seems to be able to see through everything at a glance.

"Rural and vulgar people, pay homage to Duke Huai!" After seeing Wang Yong, this person came to pay his respects.

"Excuse me, sir!" Wang Yong said with a smile.

"I don't know what your name is, sir? Is there a way to control the water?"

"My lord, my minister's name is Sun Shu'ao, and I pay homage to Duke Huai!" Sun Shu'ao went on to say, "I have a plan to control the water!"

When Zijue heard that this person was called Sun Shuao, he also smiled in his heart. This person is not inferior to Guan Zhong Daxian at all, and he is indeed a nine-star talent.

Wang Yong became interested, and then asked him to tell it again.

So Sun Shuao described in detail how he controlled the water.It can be said that Wang Yong nodded again and again, agreeing very much.

Sun Shu'ao's water control method is combined with Dayu's water control method in ancient times, and he also added some unique insights of his own, such as excavating a reservoir in some low-lying parts, rebuilding some valleys for water storage, and preparing to let the water in the Huaihe River Water sources gather here.

In this way, when there is a lot of water, the gates are opened to store water to prevent excessive water from submerging both sides of the bank and reduce the river's embankment burst.When the amount of water is low, the water in the reservoir is released to fight drought.At the same time, the water from these reservoirs can also be used to irrigate farmland.

At the same time, rivers were dredged and water conservancy was built to irrigate farmland.

Sun Shuao's narration was recognized by Wang Yong, and Sun Shuao was also very thoughtful in governing the country.Wang Yong talked with Sun Shuao for three days in a row, and finally issued an imperial edict to recruit Sun Shuao as the governor of Huai'an, responsible for presiding over the construction of water conservancy projects on the Huaihe River and Sishui River.

Sun Shuao took the order, and then recruited [-] people to start dredging the river, connecting the Huaiguo waterway, which can not only dredge the flood, but also irrigate the farmland.At the same time, build reservoirs in low-lying areas, and transform some valleys into reservoirs for water storage.

Wang Yong recruited dozens of academy students to study with Sun Shuao and help Sun Shuao manage floods and build water conservancy projects.At the same time, the geography and hydrology of Huai State were recorded.
