Before I knew it, it was four hundred chapters, and it was another beginning. I'm sorry for the lack of updates these days, and thank you for your support! In the post house, as soon as Xu Shu left, everyone gathered around. Although they believed in Ju Shou, it was their first time in Jingzhou and they had some doubts in their hearts. Knowing that everyone must be worried at this time, Jushou did not hide it and said to everyone: "Everyone, just now Yuan Zhi has come to say on behalf of Master Zhou Mu that any position we can hold in Jingzhou is up to us. , I think you all have heard of the Talent Recruitment Hall in Xiangyang. No one has been able to pass the many levels in the Talent Recruitment Hall. " Everyone was stunned. "The Talent Recruitment Hall? It is the place where talents are gathered in Xiangyang City. I heard that it is very famous in Jingzhou?" "It is a good move to join the Talent Recruitment Hall." There are seven levels of checkpoints in total, and they are divided into two types: civil and military. As long as you pass the first two levels, you will be recognized as a talented person and can be an official in Jingzhou. This time we came here rashly. Even if Mr. Zhou Mu arranged a position for us, we may not be satisfied. Moreover, we are in a high position without merit. I am afraid that other people will be dissatisfied now. Depending on your ability, the more checkpoints you pass, the higher your official position will be in Jingzhou, and others will not be dissatisfied. General Zhang and I have decided to go to the recruitment hall tomorrow. You can take the assessment according to your own situation. , choose a time to take the examination at the Recruitment Hall." Jushou turned his head and looked at Zhang Xia, gesturing for Zhang Xia to speak. "Although I only recently learned the name of Jingzhou Liu Qi, I know that Liu Qi was able to defeat the Cao thieves and defeat Jiangdong Sun Ce. Jingzhou's strength is evident. Now that Jingzhou has just annexed Yizhou and its power has greatly increased, it is the time when talents are needed. It's time for me to show off my skills. Mr. Yuan Zhi has just said that in Jingzhou, everything is done based on talent, and rewards and punishments are clear. Merits will be rewarded, and mistakes will be punished. As for this assessment, I will not worry about it. Zhang Jaw has been fighting for a lifetime, but he wants to see what kind of test can stump me." Zhang Jaw said with a smile. "General Zhang is right. Although Jingzhou's strength is still slightly inferior to Cao Cao and Ming Gong, it is a good opportunity to develop and grow. General Zhang and I have decided to stay in Jingzhou. If you stay, you can Stay in the post station for a while and choose a time to take the assessment. If you feel that Jingzhou is not suitable, you can leave. General Zhang and I will not stop you. As for the families of those who leave, we will also send their families to them after they settle down. Deliver it." Jushou said solemnly. "My lord and sir are righteous, and I am willing to stay in Jingzhou. Although I have just arrived in Jingzhou, I still feel that the stability in Jingzhou cannot be found in other places." Chen Lin, who was sitting under Jushou, said with a hand in hand, he and Cao Cao have a big feud. , he wrote all the documents for Yuan Shao's troops. Now that Yuan Shao has been defeated, his destruction will be a matter of time. The only one in the world who can always contend is Jingzhou. After arriving in Jingzhou for a few days, he already had a preliminary understanding of Jingzhou. Although it was peaceful inside, he had been actively recruiting troops and hoarding grain and grass, which clearly meant expansion. "Haha, you're right. I, Guo Yuan, also want to see how difficult this Jingzhou assessment is." Everyone looked at it and saw a tall man who didn't care about his size. This ferocious look made everyone feel cold. Everyone knew that this was Yuan Shao's general Guo Yuan, and he was the nephew of the famous scholar Zhong Yao. Although his personality is a bit extreme, his skills cannot be underestimated, and his bravery is no less than that of Han Meng. Seeing everyone looking down at him, Guo Yuan didn't care at all: "I only know that my uncle said that it would not be wrong to follow Mr. You. Who cares about other things?" "Haha, General Guo's words are very good, but we think too much. "More." The one who spoke was Yan Jing. This man, who was both civil and military, rarely made any statements in Jizhou. This time, he was persuaded by Xu Shu to come to Jingzhou. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡. The news that Jushou and others were going to the Talent Recruitment Hall for assessment was not blocked by Liu Qi. Some time ago, Jushou and hundreds of others were People suddenly arrived in Xiangyang, and many people in Xiangyang had already noticed it. At this time, they heard that they were going to the recruitment hall for assessment, and everyone naturally paid attention to them. Waiting at the entrance of the recruitment hall early in the morning. In the recruitment hall, Liu Qi also arrived here early in the morning with Xin Xianying, Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others. Xu Shu personally presided over this assessment. "Lord, the questions in the first few levels have been arranged, but the subordinates need to deal with them personally. However, the assessment of generals requires the cooperation of General Zhao." Xu Shu said with a hand in hand, generals also have multiple assessments, including military skills and martial arts. Even by arm strength. The Art of War and the Commanding of TroopsThe assessment of physical strength naturally does not require Zhao Yun's intervention, but the assessment of martial arts requires Zhao Yun's control. "It doesn't matter, Zilong will be here in a moment." Liu Qi shook his head and said. After Zhao Yun returned to Xiangyang with Liu Qi, he was responsible for the defense of the entire Xiangyang. At this time, he should patrol everywhere. "My lord, everyone from Jizhou has arrived." "Oh, since that's the case, let's start the assessment." Liu Qi turned to look at Xu Shu, who nodded and walked out in a few steps. In front of the Talent Recruitment Hall, Ju Shou and Zhang Jia stood side by side under the huge signboard, followed closely by four or five people in different clothes. Jushou raised his eyes and looked at the huge signboard of the Talent Recruitment Hall and the crowd around it, a little stunned. Although he had expected it, he did not expect that it would attract so many people today. He looked at Zhang Jia next to him, and both of them nodded secretly. Turning around and looking at the people behind him, they all looked a little dazed. Even Guo Yuan was a little cautious: "Everyone, there is no need to worry about the separation between the inside and the outside of the recruitment hall." "Yes." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. , but it would be a bit difficult to take the exam under the watchful eyes of so many people. "Everyone, there are seven levels of assessment in this recruitment hall. If you pass the first three levels, you can be appointed to an official position. However, the more passes you pass, the higher the official position you will be appointed to. In addition, you can also obtain higher official positions by accumulating merit. "Jushou explained. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ "My lord, I have been waiting for a long time." At this moment, Xu Shu came out dressed in Confucian uniform. Seeing Xu Shu, the surrounding crowd was in an uproar. At this time, the names of Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang and others had long been spread throughout Jingzhou, and their abilities were even more legendary. Yi Ji has always been responsible for the usual assessment of this talent recruitment hall. Unexpectedly, Xu Shu was in charge this time. It can be seen that several people who came for the assessment had already been approved by Liu Qi before the assessment. At a teahouse next to the Recruitment Hall, Huang Chengyan, Sima Hui and others were sipping tea while looking at the people outside the Recruitment Hall. This time Ju Shou and others came to Jingzhou for assessment, and they could be counted among the first batch of people from outside Jingzhou. , if they succeed, they will definitely be able to attract more people with lofty ideals to take the exam, which will definitely be an impact on the scholars in Jingzhou. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ "Jushou, the talents of Zhang Zhi and Zhang Zha are among the top figures in the world. This time, the master asked these two people to participate in the assessment publicly. Is there anything else to do?" Sima Hui frowned and asked. They also didn't care about Liu Qi. He knew quite a bit about it, and naturally he would not think that Liu Qi mobilized troops and mobilized people like this just for the assessment of Ju Shou and others. "Haha, you, have you forgotten the academy?" Huang Chengyan shook his head and said: "My lord, there are so many students in the academy who are clearly paving the way. Otherwise, after a year and a half, this group of people will come out for assessment all at once. Isn't it easy to get into trouble?" "You mean?" Sima Hui looked solemn. There were already more than three thousand students in the academy, and most of them had strong foundations. The reason why they were sent to The purpose of recruiting them into the academy is to train them so that they can be used by Liu Qi in the future. "However, if people from the academy hold high positions as soon as they come out, wouldn't it be inconsistent with Liu Qi's original intention of meritocracy? Nowadays, both Jushu and Zhangzhi are rare talented people in the world, with outstanding abilities. If such people want to hold official positions in Jingzhou, they need to be assessed. The academy will definitely have a series of assessments in the future. A small talent recruitment center is obviously not able to meet Liu Qi's needs. Liu Qi may not have the intention of establishing another talent selection organization in doing so. "It's true that we are short-sighted." Pang Degong also nodded. Liu Qi's small move undoubtedly revealed his ambition without reservation. The purpose of selecting talents is naturally to expand the power, and the ambition is not small. "Haha, my lord's move reminds me of Jixia Academy." Sima Hui said with a smile. "Jixia Academy?" Huang Chengyan shook his head and said: "Jixia Academy is a place for studying Taoism. Not many talents in it can be reused. Once the academy mentioned by the lord can be established, then the whole world will be affected. All the talented people will definitely be taken under the lord's command, so why worry about the uncertainty of the world? " "Yes, passing the assessment one by one to obtain official positions will lead to the rise of one by one aristocratic families, which will undoubtedly be a shock to those aristocratic families that have a long history. Not only did he win over the hearts of scholars all over the world, but he also weakened the power of the family in a disguised way. This move by my lord has achieved many successes," Pang Degong said with a solemn expression. "Haha, although it is a shock to the aristocratic family, it is still an opportunity. Looking at the world, even the oldest aristocratic family will eventually decline one day. This timeAlthough the move had an impact on the family, it did not fail to make the children of the family move forward bravely and increase their awareness of survival, which is more important than anything else. "Huang Chengyan twirled his beard and said with a thoughtful expression. "The reason why there are countless rules in the inheritance of aristocratic families is to prevent the decline of the family due to the incompetence of any generation of family heads. However, even with these rules, the aristocratic family still cannot continue to pass on. It is extremely difficult to rebuild a family. Once Liu Qi made this move, those idle children of the family will have a way out. Naturally, they will no longer be doing nothing like they are now. Even if the family declines in the future, if they encounter one or two The progressive children of the family can make the family prosperous again. Several people have different thoughts. Over there, Xu Shu has led several people into the recruitment hall. Xin Pi and Liu Biao are sitting opposite each other, playing chess. After letting Liu Qi inherit Jingzhou, Liu Biao no longer interfered with Jingzhou's affairs. Apart from playing chess with Xin Pi, he rested in his mansion all day long. "So Qi'er has already captured Yizhou. "Liu Biao looked a little dazed with the chess piece in his hand. In just a few months, Liu Qi captured Yizhou, doubling his power. "Exactly, Liu Zhang had already left Yizhou with his family at this time. . "Xin Pi smiled and said. "Haha, maybe the most correct decision in my life is to let Qi'er inherit Jingzhou. A flash of surprise flashed across Liu Biao's eyes and he said, "Then what happy event will there be today?" " "Haha, I can't hide it from you. Today, Gong Yu and others are going to take part in the assessment of the Talent Recruitment Hall. It should have started now. "
