Chapter 180 Another Year
In a flash, it has reached the third year of Zhongping, that is, in 1986 A.D. It has been more than nine months since he was appointed to Pingxiang to resist the Han Sui rebels in March. After more than six months of operation, Jincheng County has become a large county. Now Xianlian Pavilion is all over the counties of Dahan, and even some important counties have been settled. In Xianlian Pavilion, intelligence personnel are trained and distributed all over the country. There are Jia Rong's intelligence systems in the thirteen states. As long as there is a little wind blowing, these news will quickly reach Jia Rong's hands.
During this period, Jia Xu has become more and more closely related to himself. Through Jia Xu's mouth, he learned a lot about the latest trends of Dong Zhuojun. Dong Zhuo did not send anyone to ask for it. It is said that Dong Zhuo is quite angry about this matter. This is a naked digging of the corner of his old boss, no Now Jia Rong's strength is no longer the one who can be pinched by others. In order to continue to maintain a close relationship with Jia Rong, Dong Zhuo can only turn a blind eye to this matter. There has never been two people under his command. Dong Zhuo still hopes that Hua Xiong and Guo Yan can come back.
Gradually, Jia Rong has faded from the tip of the storm. It's not Jia Zhiyuan, who caused the wind and rain in Luyang at the beginning. His relationship with the Emperor of Han is also getting closer and closer, mainly because Su Shuang, a middleman, has been working hard. The Emperor of Han has earned about 300,000 yuan through the Xianlian Pavilion. Emperor of Han Thinking of Su Shuang's face full of laughter, Zhang Rang also kept saying good words for Jia Rong during this period. Jia Rong was no longer the rebellious governor of Beidi County in the heart of the Emperor of Han, and he became a loyal general of the Han Dynasty.
Jincheng County has developed, but Jia Rong is getting busier and busier. The collation of information from various places is a big problem. In his letter to Jia Xu, Jia Rong indirectly expressed his hope that Jia Xu could return to Jincheng. Jia Xu did not object to this, and today's Xiliang Army is no longer comparable to the past. Jia Xu Staying in Dong Zhuojun can't play much role. In fact, at the beginning, Jia Xu also had the idea of testing Jia Rong. If Jia Rong accidentally died in the battlefield, then Jia Xu would be free. Jia Xu was not the kind of person who ended up in history.
Now Jia Rong's strength can be on the table, and he also has his own power. Jia Xu can only play a greater role when he returns to Jincheng.
With the efforts of Jia Rong and Zhang Li, Zhang Zhao stayed in Jincheng County. The two brothers took care of the internal affairs of Jincheng County together. The family has a saying that eggs are placed in different baskets, but the current situation of the Zhang family is not very good, otherwise he will not move away because of Tao Qian. Zhang Zhao deserves the title of internal affairs talent, in the military plot. There may be some shortcomings in the overall situation, but the governance of internal affairs is easy to handle. Anyway, many problems that seem difficult for Jia Rong to deal with can be easily solved in the hands of Zhang Zhao, and Jincheng County has shown a booming trend under the treatment of Zhang Zhao.
Zhang Zhao added some measures to Jia Rong's relationship with the Qiang people. During the war, the Qiang people must support enough troops and horses. When Jia Rong mentioned these, the patriarchs of the Qiang people agreed without thinking about it. Now Jia Rong's prestige among the Qiang people is unmatched.
The life that several generations of Qiang people dreamed of Jia Rong gave them, so that every family can have a house to live in and land to cultivate. More importantly, they are completely equal to the Han people. Even the Xiongnu living in Hanjing do not have such treatment, and there are all kinds of The opportunity to make money allows Qiang people to have a surplus, and they no longer have to worry about their clothes and food.
They also understand that all this was brought to them by Jia Rong. They can't guarantee that Jia Rong's future governor will be like this, but they have enough confidence in Jia Rong. For various reasons, the Qiang tribe has reached the point of absolute compliance with Jia Rong's orders.
Jia Rong can feel that the current Jincheng County has grown up. No one is allowed to ignore it. The people in the city have become much richer. Under the condition of ensuring that they will not starve, they can still have a lot of money left. There are more businessmen in Jincheng County. They not only consume more, but also need a lot of people, which will solve the problem for Jincheng County. It's a big problem. The people from Beida County can basically find a good job. They can spend this winter without the support of the Taishou Government. Invisibly, it has saved a lot of expenses for Jincheng County. Jia Rong can feel a kind of happiness from the faces of the people in the city.
The wall of the Golden City has been strengthened. The wall has been raised to five feet, and the thickness of the wall has been more than ten feet. The grain and fodder in the city are roughly estimated, which is enough for the military and civilians in the city to use for more than a year. As long as such a strong city is determined, even a hundred thousand troops can only do nothing, not to mention the elite of the Xiliang Army is not ordinary. The soldiers can compare.
Jia Rong also learned about the movement of Han Suijun through his own means. In fact, Jia Rong also knows that the family in the city has a close relationship with Han Sui, but Jincheng County is in the period of development. The local tycoons who move these families will only play an opposite role. Now Jincheng County has grown up, and the people have completely put their hearts down. If the people have no confidence in Jia Rong for such a long time, it can only be said that Jia Rongbai has been around for so long, and the local tycoons of the family will not jump for a few days.
However, the local tycoons of the family are still very influential. They occupy many fertile fields in Jincheng. Each family has many tenants and householders. Even if they are eradicated, Jincheng County will have a lot of turbulence. The first thing to deal with these families is to deal with the problems of the people first.
It is worth mentioning that although the paper mill in Jincheng County has not introduced advanced technology, the amount of paper production is also getting higher and higher, especially the technology of movable type printing is becoming more and more proficient. More and more books have been printed. Poetry and Liyi including the Analects has been popularized among the officials and military generals of Jincheng County. Jincheng County A lot of things about books were spread by Jia Rong through his own channels. Many students rushed to Jincheng County not far away, just to get knowledge. Even if the family speaks well, Jia Rong gives knowledge to people all over the world. This is the courage that the family does not have. The words of the world fall to Jia Rong under the influence of books. After all, Jia What Rong did is for the whole world, and there are only a few historical figures who can compare with such a mind.
Jia Rong gave the greatest care to these students who came from afar. Books only charge cost fees, and the cost of accommodation in the city was greatly discounted. Jia Rong didn't want to make any money from books. All he wanted was to have a good relationship with these students. These people will be the talent pool in Jincheng County in the future. Anyway Well, the help of providing books is no less than the kindness of acquaintance in this era. After many students were recruited by the Taishou Mansion, they immediately agreed, which greatly enriched the talents of Xiliang Army.
Jia Rong's movable type printing has reduced the influence of the family in the people a lot. What the people in Pingming value is the knowledge of the family. They don't want to be a fool in the eyes of the world. If they want to be shortlisted in the court through knowledge, Jia Rong solves the problem of books, which is equivalent to giving many people hope. .
With books, it is much more convenient to set up a school. What Jia Rong needs is not those Confucian students who are full of mouths and talk at length, but talents who can truly govern the people. Students' textbooks also need to make careful choices.
Many of the teachers in the school are scholars who have been left behind to study from all over the country. Jia Rong provides them with books, and they are responsible for teaching talents. These students are basically aspiring young people from poor families. They understand how difficult it is for an ordinary child to study. After listening to Jia Rong's general plan I agreed, and at the same time, I also felt deep admiration for Jia Rong's behavior.
Jia Rong won the hearts of countless scholars in this way, but he also completely offended the family. The Han Emperor never cut off bad words about Jia Rong in his ears, but the Emperor Han was immersed in his interest in making money, and did not want to touch Jia Rong, a hen that lays golden eggs.
Jia Rong can't count how much money he has. I'm afraid these numbers will make the world panic. Jia Rong also understands that this money is actually nothing in the eyes of those real big families. There are as many businessmen.
The selection of soldiers has begun. The selection rules are completely in accordance with the previous system of the Xiliang Army. However, all the soldiers who are not qualified in martial arts and do not know how to cooperate are directly brushed down. Their loyalty may be very high, but what the Xiliang Army does not want is not only loyalty, but also needs elite soldiers. What they need is to be good at fighting. Warrior.
In the end, there were 17,000 of 20,000 soldiers left after many selections. This result surprised Jia Rong. He had investigated the quality of these soldiers before, and it was good to leave 15,000 people behind. I didn't expect that after half a month, the soldiers' ability improved so quickly. It seems that people The potential is indeed infinite. As long as you are good at development, you can get unexpected results. Under strong pressure, Zhang Fei can also become an excellent embroiderer.
The 3,000 soldiers who left sadly, Jia Rong let them leave after no one distributed the military expenses. Before leaving, Jia Rong gave them a passionate speech, which made the first batch of retired soldiers of the Xiliang Army fight again. Jia Rong asked them to study hard after going back and strive to pass the exam as soon as possible. Wait until The Xiliang Army will be given a chance when conscripted.
Most of the soldiers of the big man have no salary. Except for the standing soldiers in Bian County, the soldiers in the territory are gathered during the war. They usually go back to their homes. There is no salary. Jia Rong's treatment to the Xiliang Army is three times that of the standing army in Bian County. Moreover, there is nothing to say about the food of the Xiliang Army. There must be meat every day. This is since The order issued after Jia Rong was rich, no one can suffer from the soldiers.
The Xiliang Army has become a place that young people who want to be soldiers yearn for. It is just food treatment, which is enough to attract anyone's attention. More importantly, the commander of the Xiliang Army is Jia Rong.
