Chapter 218 Recruitment Hall

Li Chongjiu agrees with Zhou Xu's opinion on setting up a county school.

Ji Chuan said: "Prefect, please forgive me for saying that no matter Huaihuang Town, Grassland, or Shanggu County, there is no shortage of brave generals who are brave and good at fighting. But only a thousand talents can be used, not ten thousand people, let alone generals. Although generals can be said to be sure to win and attack in battle, they have no targets and no talents to strategize. "

Li Chongjiu was a little unhappy when he heard it. What did Ji Chuan do? With all due respect, he really outspokenly lost face on the spot.How can there be such a little face and not giving the boss.

Li Chongjiu said angrily: "I understand what you said, so right now we are going to train such talents with elementary school, elementary school, and county school, step by step."

Ji Chuan said: "Prefect, have you forgotten what I told you before, did you starve to death after spending three days weaving nets to catch fish due to hunger? The prefect's area is now thousands of miles away, although the land is vast. There are few people, but to govern, one needs a virtuous person who can control thousands of miles like a palm. As for the current officials of the prefect, in my opinion, um, brother Zhou can read books and teach others, but brother Liu is reluctant to calculate accounts. As for Zhao Wansan, although I have never met, but I can't think of a talented person, so where can I find such a talented person for the time being, if it is about training, it will take five or ten years to produce such a talented person."

"So I'm going to be in the netting, starving to death."

What a Ji Chuan, he attacked Li Chongjiu's subordinates with his venomous tongue. Well, Su Su is probably Li Chongjiu's fourth uncle, so he finally saved some face.

Zhou Xu was furious immediately, and when Zhou Xu got angry, he stuttered a bit, and said, "Well, you Ji... Chuan, then... how talented are you...?"

Liu Yi snorted, and said in a cold voice: "I don't know how many miles away the talent is, but he came to Huaihuang Town because of adultery!"

Ji Chuan was exposed, and immediately shouted angrily: "What are you talking about, so what about adultery, you love me, and besides, back then, Chen Ping was robbing his sister-in-law with money. To achieve hegemony, you are really short-sighted when you wait and wait."

Liu Yi sneered and said: "You are not ashamed to speak out. You are a person like Chen Ping. You really don't think you have a face. Then how can you compare with a thousand-mile talent in your opinion?"

Ji Chuan put his hands behind his back and said: "If you want to talk about virtue, of course you have to look for it from the gentry. Since ancient times, only Fan Kui can come from poor families, but not Xiao He and Zhang Liang."

"There are also Han Xin and Chen Ping among poor families." Zhou Xu said, "There is no famous family in Shanggu County. Besides, where can we find support from aristocratic families?"

Immediately, Ji Chuan, Liu Yi, and Zhou Xu quarreled again, and after staying for a long time, they finally thought of their disrespect, so they pleaded guilty to Li Chongjiu together.
Li Chongjiu yawned for a long time, waved his hands and said: "There is no need to apologize. In my opinion, we can follow the example of King Yan Zhao, build a golden platform, and buy horse bones with thousands of gold. Anyone with a skill can do it." Come here."

As soon as this remark came out, all three of them nodded their heads in agreement, saying a good word.

Seeing that the three of them agreed, Li Chongjiu said: "Then I will set up a recruiting hall in Huaihuang Town and Yi County each to recruit talents and recruit talents. If they can be used, the courtesy will be the history of the county government." Everyone agrees.

After negotiating the matter of recruiting talents, Li Chongjiu decided to inspect the situation near Huaihuang Town.Li Chongjiu first rode his horse to the shore of Anguli Nao Lake in the north.

At this time, Anguli Nao was still frozen, and a thick layer of ice covered the lake like a pot cover. Some of the endless white birch forests by the lake that I saw before had been cut down and repaired. Wooden tents live in people.

There is no life on all sides, but on the ice, hundreds of people are taunting people, wearing thick-soled fur boots, and are using wooden sticks to dig into the ice to catch fish. I saw several big holes in the lake, and the fishing nets were deep in the lake.When the nets were collected, there was an order, and hundreds of people worked together, dragging the fishing nets from the water and pulling them up to the ice cover.

The chants of the fishermen are full of soul-stirring flavors, which is the fishing method passed down by their tribe.I heard from Liu Yi that every time they catch fish, they can catch hundreds of catties of fish, ranging from three to four catties to five or six catties. Come and eat.This is the reason for the endless hunting and killing on the grasslands.

Except for their own food, most of the fish caught by these fishermen are traded in the grass market, rice wine, porcelain, tea bricks, silk cloth, grain, cattle and sheep, and good meat.And come on them, Huaihuang Town can now eat fresh fish all year round.

After inspecting the lake in the north, Li Chongjiu came to the south slope again, which he thought was the center of gravity of Huaihuang Town.In this era when there was no cold fresh meat, corn and rice were easy to store, but beef, mutton and fish meat were not in this category. A common animal epidemic might kill a few cattle and sheep in the herd.Not to mention the wealth, the hairy ones don't count.

In the Han Dynasty, the daily staple food of the people was still corn. Although wheat was cultivated, it was miscellaneous grains. Until the two tax laws, the government implemented rent-yong modulation, of which two stones of millet, half-horse silk, and three taels of cotton were rented for [-] days. .The main tax collection is corn, supplemented by insufficient miscellaneous grains.At the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, because wheat had the advantage of planting in two seasons, it gradually reached a position comparable to corn in the north.The imperial court promoted the two-tax law and collected wheat in summer.

Wheat is hardy to cold. There are wheat fields everywhere on the south slope of Huaihuang Town. Winter wheat has been planted for a long time. In the soil, check the moisture content to avoid loss of moisture.In addition to the wheat fields, the land on the other side is also ready to be leveled into corn fields and sorghum fields when the farming season arrives.Corn is resistant to drought and barrenness, and it tastes better than wheat when cooking porridge. It has always been a favorite food for the people before the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Li Chongjiu walked slowly in the field, and several old farmers heard that the prefect came, and hurriedly stepped forward to meet Li Chongjiu.Li Chongjiu asked them a lot about farming. The Sui and Tang Dynasties did not need to be Ming and Qing Dynasties. Both scholars and officials must know a lot. In the past, people who could not distinguish between bean and wheat were regarded as ignorant. became synonymous with scholars.And today, I am afraid that even many college students are going to hehe.

The old farmer and Li Chongjiu chatted a lot. In addition to planting grains, they also hoped that after the spring, they could graze ducks and chickens here on the southern slope, so that they could have poultry meat to eat, and secondly, they also wanted to prevent locust plagues. , Thirdly, manure can also be used as fertilizer.

Li Chongjiu felt reasonable after hearing this, and immediately asked Liu Yi to implement the matter and do it as soon as possible.After hearing this, several old farmers all thanked each other.

PS: I have been busy with work these days and have to ensure the quality, so the update is late. Sorry, I will try to update as soon as possible tomorrow.
