Chapter 266 Recruitment
…
Wen Huanzhang and others welcomed the dusty Li Yan into the Protectorate Mansion.
As soon as Li Yan sat down, Wen Huanzhang reported: "Grandmaster, Song State sent Cai You and Lin Lingsu over. We can't make the decision and have some differences. In addition, Cai You and Lin Lingsu insisted on meeting the Governor, so we asked the Governor to come back."
Li Yan asked: "What are they doing here?"
Guo Yongdao: "I came to ask for guilt, and most of them wanted to recruit the Grand Governor."
Li Yan asked again: "What is the difference between you?"
Wen Huanzhang said: "Some of them think that they should not accept the amnesty. The king of Song is stupid. We already have the momentum of today. There is no need to accept the amnesty. Some people think that we should accept the amnesty of Song. This will make the case and have a strong ally."
Li Yan looked at everyone one by one and found that most of the people who supported the recruitment were from the court. Obviously, these people had not given up on the Song court. They should think that if the Song State had changed to a more wise emperor, they would be saved. The old brothers who had been with Li Yan all the time. Most of these people were very disappointed with the Song State court and believed that the Shuibo Liangshan was developing very well now, and there was no need to support the stinky feet of the Song State. In addition, the people who supported the recruitment were obviously not confident. After being together for so long, how could they not know that Li Yan had always opposed the recruitment and even had the intention to rebel? The reason why they invited Li Yan back was just a matter of fact, while those who opposed the recruitment were full of confidence, and they also knew Li Yan's usual attitude.
Li Yan asked Wen Huanzhang: "What do you think of military aircraft?"
Wen Huanzhang said: "Jian is in the heart of the Grand Commander, and he should make arbitrary decisions."
Li Yan nodded secretly.
The biggest advantage of Wen Huanzhang is his duty, which is also the main reason why Li Yan is assured to hand over the two counties of Lelang and Zhenfan to Wen Huanzhang for management.
Li Yan thought for a while and said, "I will meet Cai You and Lin Lingsu first."
Wen Huanzhang said: "Okay, I'll make arrangements now."
Li Yan said: "No hurry, I will take a break for three days first and see them in three days."
Everyone smiled and wanted to say, "The Grand Governor's methods are getting higher and higher."
...
Lin Lingsu asked his disciples to invite Gongsun Sheng, and then greeted him enthusiastically, saying, "Fellow Taoist, I wonder if your Grand Governor has returned?"
Gongsun Shengdao: "I have returned, but the Grand Governor has been fighting outside for a long time and is exhausted. He said that he would not do anything for three days and should enjoy the joy of family life for three days."
Lin Lingsu said: "Please recommend me to me. I have been here for more than a month and can't delay any longer. The official family is still waiting for news from me."
Gongsun Shengdao: "The Grand Governor has always said that he would have to rest for three days, so he would have to rest for three days. Who dares to make a statement? He will be desperate."
Lin Lingsu's neck chills and she asked, "Governor is so good at killing people?"
Gongsun Sheng did not deny it and said, "If the Grand Governor had a gentle personality, could he defeat this Lelang, Zhenfan County?"
Lin Lingsu thought about it and thought to himself: "You need to be careful when dealing with such a bloodthirsty person. He will not be as generous as the official."
Lin Lingsu said again: "I wonder what attitude the Grand Governor has towards our Taoism?"
Gongsun Shengdao: "The general believes in useism. Whoever is useful to him will believe in him."
Lin Lingsu's eyes rolled, then took out a small box from his arms and said, "This is the Nine Yang Supreme Treasure Pill. After taking it, he can control the ten girls at night. The official family has a rich descendants. It all depends on this treasure pill. Please ask fellow Taoists to help me present them to the Grand Commander."
Gongsun Sheng smiled and said, "The Grand Commander is in full swing in the spring and autumn, and he has many descendants. He cannot use this precious pill. If a fellow Taoist wants to please the Grand Commander, he needs to start from another place."
How could Lin Lingsu, who could fool Zhao Ji so much that he could not even find Bei, not a smart person?
Seeing Gongsun Sheng's words, Lin Lingsu immediately bowed and said, "I'd like to ask fellow Taoists to give me some advice."
Gongsun Sheng looked embarrassed: "This...this matter involves the secrets of my Anton Protectorate..."
Lin Lingsu knew very well what Sun Gongsheng's face meant, so he took a jade pendant from his waist and gave it to Gongsun Sheng, saying, "This is the Lingxi pendant given by the official family. It is priceless. When I saw it, I gave it to my fellow Taoist to make it successful in order to improve the friendship between me and fellow Taoist."
Gongsun Sheng refused, so he could only put it away, and then said, "What I lack most at the moment is people. If a fellow Taoist uses this as a breakthrough, he will be able to convince the Grand Governor to accept the recruitment."
Lin Lingsu was puzzled and said, "Man?"
Take money and destroy it with others.
Since Gongsun Sheng has taken Lin Lingsu's jade pendant, how could he not help Lin Lingsu's plan?
Gongsun Shengdao: "The Grand Governor wanted to build a mansion in Seoul. In addition, the Grand Governor wanted to build Seoul into an unbreakable city. However, the Grand Governor had no craftsmen, and we were trapped in this overseas place. We all rely on ships for transportation. There were some ships, but the ship was used to break, and it would not be repaired without ship workers. Therefore, the Grand Governor lacked ship workers. Let's put it this way, as long as the Daoist can bring three to five thousand skilled blacksmiths, carpenters, cobblers, stonemasons, papermakers, lacquers, plasterers or ship workers, the recruitment will probably be accomplished."
Lin Lingsu smiled and said, "Building a mansion, the city and the boat cannot use so many craftsmen and boatmen, right?"
Gongsun Sheng asked without answering, "Is this important? What's important is that with these three or five thousand skilled craftsmen and boatmen, the Grand Commander may be recruited. Lelang and Zhenfan counties may be the territory of the State of Song, and you can make such a person of great achievements in the world."
Three or five thousand skilled craftsmen and boatmen are nothing to the developed Song Dynasty. They are less than one-tenth of the Wansui Mountain for Zhao Ji. It is very cost-effective to exchange these people for the land of two counties, at least Lin Lingsu thinks it is very cost-effective.
However, in case the three or five thousand craftsmen and boatmen couldn't get Li Yan to accept the recruitment, Lin Lingsu asked again: "I wonder what the Grand Governor wants?"
At the same time, Cai You was also asking Sun Jing: "I don't know what else the Grand Governor wants?"
While playing with a jade ring, Sun Jing said, "It's still a human, a literati, the governor of Lelang and Zhenfan County was defeated, but it was impossible to govern it. The governor did not trust the Goryeo people and only trust the Han people. The Han people who immigrated were all farmers and did not have management skills at all. If my husband could bring a thousand Tai students to the governor, the recruitment of the ambulance would be accomplished."
Cai You hesitated and said, "A thousand students are... too many?"
Sun Jing said: "The official built Piyong as an external student and recruited 3,800 Taishen students. Among these Taishen students, less than 100 can be selected and used every year, but thousands of people are enrolled. The Taishen students accumulate more and more, so that most people cannot apply what they have learned and can only engage in cheap careers, or study abroad repeatedly to look forward to being selected one day. It is really too wasteful. It would be better to give it to the Grand Governor, no, to Lelang, Zhenfan County send a thousand Taishen students to make Lelang and Zhenfan County completely become a Han area. Isn't it a great thing?"
Cai You thought to himself: "Only a few of those Tai students can be used to recommend them to officials, and the rest are mostly useless. If they can be exchanged for the land of the two counties, it would be a good thing."
