Chapter 145 Main Quest: The First State in the World
He replied respectfully to Yuan Feng:
"My son set up a Wanshan Chamber of Commerce before, you know this dad.
Now this chamber of commerce is doing a big deal, so it is not a problem to provide my son with some funds to establish himself in the court.”
Yuan Feng nodded with satisfaction:
"Since my son has this ability, my father won't ask more about it.
My Yuan family’s root is in Runan. After my son became the governor of Yangzhou, the manpower and material resources of Runan and Ruyin are for you to seek, which is considered to be the support given to you by your father.”
When Yuan Shu heard that there was such great benefit, he said happily:
"Thank you, dad, I knew my dad prefers me the most.
My two brothers have no place in my father's mind, hehe."
Yuan Shu's words made Yuan Feng laugh:
"Don't say anything wrong, my father's resources are only tilted towards those who can continue my Yuan family's glory."
After hearing Yuan Feng say this, Yuan Shu knew it.
In his previous life, Yuan Shao was the most outstanding talent in the Yuan family. Yuan Feng tilted most of his resources towards Yuan Shao, which made him the position of Hebei overlord.
After spending the Spring Festival in Luoyang, Yuan Shu set off to Yangzhou to take up his post.
Although he is now the governor of Yangzhou, Nanyang is also one of the foundations of his hard work for many years and he must not give up.
So Yuan Shu spent a lot of money to get through Zhang Rang's relationship, making Yue Fei the prefect of Nanyang.
He took all his confidants to Yangzhou and left Yue Fei and Xu Rong to station in Nanyang.
These two people are calm and steady, both of them are rare handsome talents. It is still very reassuring to hand them over to Yuan Shu.
After Yuan Shu talked about Yangzhou, he chose his capital in Shouchun, which is closer to the Central Plains and can more closely connect Luoyang and Nanyang.
Coincidentally, Shouchun City also happened to be the pseudo-capital capital of Yuan Shu's proclaimed emperor in history.
"System, I want to redeem a legendary talent lottery card."
Because Yangzhou covers a large area and has many families, barbarians such as Shanyue often go down the mountain to rob, Yuan Shu has a headache when he manages it.
In fact, with the support of Xi Zhicai, Jia Xu and others, and the support of Runan Yuan family, it is not difficult to build Yangzhou well.
The difficulty is to complete the main task of the system and build Yangzhou into the largest state in the world.
He just happened to have millions of reputation in his hands, so he simply exchanged for a talent who could help him manage Yangzhou thoroughly.
Isn’t this thing about reputation value just for spending? If you don’t have enough, you can save it.
"Ding! The exchange is successful, the consumption reputation is worth one million, and the host's current remaining reputation is worth 200,000."
The legendary talent recruitment card is the top talent recruitment card that the system can redeemed.
Using this recruitment card, at least one god-level talent with a property of up to 100 is available.
After Yuan Shu got the recruitment card, he rubbed his hands and couldn't wait to say to the system:
"What are you waiting for? Use it now."
The system reminds:
"Please choose the direction of recruiting talents.
A military general or a strategist.”
"Get me a strategist." Now I want to govern Yangzhou, what's the point of drawing a general over?
"Ding! Drawing is being drawn for the host. The draw is successful!
Congratulations to the host for obtaining legendary counselors Liu Ji and Liu Bowen. (Note 1)
Liu Ji is set as a famous official in the world and is also the enlightenment teacher of the host.
The system sets Liu Ji to care about the host with great care and loyalty, and his loyalty is always locked at 100.
Now Liu Ji is living in seclusion in Shouchun City. The host can visit him with the disciple's gift and ask him to come out to help."
When Yuan Shu was drawn, he was extremely surprised. His luck was too good!
[Author's Off-topic]: Note 1: Liu Ji, whose courtesy name is Bowen, was a politician, writer, and founding father of the Ming Dynasty at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. He was Zhu Yuanzhang's number one planner.
Liu Ji was proficient in astronomy, military strategy, mathematics, and politics, and was a talented person who was rare in hundreds of years.
He assisted Zhu Yuanzhang in pacifying the world and establishing a plan, and was called "my son's house" by Zhu Yuanzhang.
