Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 879 Uninvited Guest (5)

   "Wenyuan has already recruited two hundred Qiang cavalry..." Xu Shu walked in with a recent briefing on Pingyang written by Zaozhi, and said, "...the speed is quite fast..."

   Zhang Liao was new, and he had no extra troops to lead him, so after allocating 100 Bingzhou cavalry to him, Fei Qian asked him to go to the vicinity of Shangjun to recruit Qiang cavalry.

   It happened that Zhang Liao and Bai Shiqiang also had some friendship, so they were also happy to go.

  Baishiqiang is now almost becoming a transportation brigade. The daily necessities and even some luxury goods purchased from Feiqian have become popular goods on the Xiqiang side. The business is booming...

   "Ming Lun Palace Debate, Zhao Zixie won the championship?"

  Fei Qian opened the envelope, then looked at the briefing sent by Pingyang, scratching his head.

  The other messages are common matters, nothing special, only one of them is a bit puzzling for Fei Qian.

Linghu Shao held the first Confucian Discussion in the Minglun Hall of the Shoushan Academy in the Shoushan Academy, and it was recognized that the first place was neither the students of the Shoushan Academy nor the children of the gentry near Pingyang. But a Zhao merchant Zhao Zixie from Hanoi...

   What the **** is this?

   Oh, no, who is this?

  Hanoi?

  When Fei Qian mentioned Hanoi, the first thing that came to mind was the Sima family, but he didn’t notice that there was a Zhao family? Those who can perform well in the scriptures, at least not the children of ordinary gentry.

   But Fei Qian really doesn't have much impression of Zhao Shang.

   "Yuan Zhi, this Zhao Zixie...do you know who he is?" Fei Qian asked.

  Xu Shu glanced at the name mentioned in Fei Qian’s briefing, thought about it for a while, then shook his head, and said, “I haven’t heard of this person when I was in Pingyang, so he must have just arrived recently?”

   "The school's reputation has grown..." Fei Qian put down the briefing and sighed slightly.

  There are too many things going on now, and many of them cannot be sorted out effectively, just like a school.

  What is the purpose of establishing the academy?

  In addition to opening up people's wisdom and cultivating talents, there is another very important reason, which is to cultivate Feiqian's own cultural heritage.

   And what is culture?

  Some people say that culture should be spiritual wealth, such as literature, art, education, science, etc., but in fact, culture is a product that serves a certain social and political class under certain social conditions.

  One of the most important reasons why the Shandong gentry can control the court, and not many people find it strange or feel that there is something wrong, is that the gentry in Jizhou and Yuzhou have their own cultural voice.

  Not to mention the area of ​​Yuzhou, there are countless people who have served as local officials in the imperial court in Yingchuan, not to mention those who have achieved academic achievements but have not become officials.

There are also quite a few people of this type in Jizhou. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were many high-ranking scholars between Zhao and Qi, especially the Jixia Academy in Qi State, which is a top academic hall where a hundred schools of thought contend. Chunyu Kun, "Talking about Tianyan" Zou Yan, "Diaolong Xun" Zou Xun, "Tiankou Pian" Tian Pian, "Serving Thousands of People in a Day" Tian Ba, "Thousand Li Horse" Lu Zhonglian, and even Xunzi, who is rigorous and agile in writing and thinking, has traveled here to study, talking and offering advice.

  Fei Qian’s original idea was to make this academy a new academic system, and to give rise to richer cultural branches, but it seems that it can’t be done now...

This problem may require a stronger academic leader. Fei Qian can't do it himself, because he really has no skills at all, and this kind of thing is originally the most suitable for Cai Yong to do, but according to Cai Yong's plan temper…

When old man Cai encounters something happy, he will probably chat happily and then the water will flow for two or three days, and there may be no problem, but when encountering such troublesome things, he will probably just shake his sleeves and turn away impatiently, and then shrink back. The possibility of a unified small courtyard will be relatively high.

  Therefore, the difficulty is still somewhat high now.

   "How many refugees have gone north recently?" Fei Qian sighed helplessly, and then put aside the affairs of the school for the time being.

Xu Shu is very familiar with this, so he didn't need to check the information at all, so he replied: "A total of 12 batches have been traveled to the north, and there are more than 6,800 people in total, and more than 400 stones of food and grass have been consumed. There are more than 300 horses of Gebu, mainly slash-and-fire tools and so on, which consume a lot, and I have already ordered Pingyang to send another batch of supplies.”

After being sorted out, the refugees were registered and registered according to their place of origin, relatives, etc., and the basic order was re-established, and then formed the most basic group, with half appointing and half electing grassroots managers, who will receive and distribute production Living utensils. Finally, if all the people in a community can reach Yinshan Mountain, then the manager will give 20% more land and materials as rewards.

Of course, there are also punitive measures. In the simple barracks built along the way, in addition to replenishing some necessary supplies, such as salt and dry food, etc., they will check whether the personnel on the roster are too damaged. If there is an abnormality, I will start to check the situation of the personnel and officials in this group, and deal with it according to the circumstances. If there is corruption or the like, I will kill it...

  Although it is not perfect, it only needs to maintain the basic role on the road, and then reorganize after arriving at the Yinshan Mountains. For the grassroots managers who have performed well, they can be promoted and used as official small officials.

   "If Yinshan can add 50,000 people, we can plant some beans, millet and the like before the end of spring, and when the autumn harvest comes, my days will be much better..." Fei Qian couldn't help but said with some longing.

   There are many good places in Bingzhou, but there are few people. Now as long as there is a supplement of population, the subsequent development will naturally be more secure. With a large population, food production will increase, and the source of soldiers will of course not be a problem.

  Xu Shu also nodded, and then said: "Now I'm just worried about the workshop... Well, we need things in the north, and supplies here... Zijian has lost a whole circle now..."

"Haha... It's been hard work for Zijian. Well, we need to add more manpower to Zijian. The main reason is that we can't find more people like Zijian who are willing to do some work in the workshop..." Fei Qian It's also a headache. Most of the children of the gentry are only willing to learn Confucian classics, and they still look down on these equipment and skills.

   "I just don't know how Tai Shi Ziyi is doing now in Heishan?" Speaking of Tai Shi Ming, Fei Qian thought of Tai Shi Ci. Now Tai Shi Ci is actually Gongsun Zan's subordinate, but it seems that he is not very popular. According to Fei Qian's memory, after Tai Shici went north to Liaodong, he still returned to his hometown, and only then did he have the story of asking Liu Bei for reinforcements...

  Tai Shici and Gongsun Zan, what happened during this period that caused these two people to part ways?

   "...report!" A soldier ran in from the outside and reported at the hall, "...the Marquis of Linjin and the Marquis of Duxiang led more than 800 soldiers, and they have reached eighty miles outside the pass!"
