Waves at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 68 Between Joy and Anger

In November of the second year of Han Guanghe, the ship Huaxia of Longwei Prefecture arrived at a large island off the coast of Kuaiji County.

Chen Wentian's day of suffering at sea finally came to an end for the time being, and he got off the boat with Ouyang Jun, who was also somewhat sluggish, and only then did he truly realize how wonderful it is to feel down-to-earth...

This island is probably located in the Zhoushan Islands of later generations. It is another base of Longwei Mansion, and it is still quite far from Yizhou.

That's right, this means that Chen Wentian's sea trip is only half completed...

Chen Wentian was very surprised when he found out, he had been at sea for more than ten days, so what, master, you sure didn't take a detour! ?
It is a pity that this is the case, and the navigation technology of the Han Dynasty is like this. In another time and space, Sun Shiwan was able to send a navy to explore the treasure island and develop Yizhou, even if it is a very difficult feat.

Now that he can develop a stable sailing route and greatly improve the safety of sailing, it can already be regarded as Ouyang Long's major contribution...

Chen Wentian didn't know the ancient sailing speed, wind direction and other factors, he only knew that there was still half the time of suffering!After hearing this news, the excitement of just getting off the boat was consumed in an instant...

Ouyang Jun looked at Chen Wentian's reaction, and immediately gloated a little. Although he was also very tired, he was still much used to sailing in this sea.

"Young master, the feeding is ready, do you need to rest for a while?"

Everyone followed Ouyang Jun into a house in the style of the main hall, and the head of the base came forward to inquire attentively.

"Don't bother, just go and collect all the affairs of the base, and I'll have to look at it later."

Ouyang Jun's condition was not good, so he didn't give the master any good looks, as if the business was important.

After finishing speaking, Mr. Ouyang entertained everyone to have a simple meal. After all, it is not easy for everyone to eat too much just after getting off the boat.

During the dinner, Chen Wentian was quite curious about the companions who had just disembarked together. These people were young and dressed in ordinary clothes, and their faces were probably pale because they were not used to the boat, but Ouyang Jun seemed to treat them according to the rules of the guests. Treat each other with courtesy.

But just as he was looking for an opportunity to chat with these people, he heard the voice of Ouyang Jun arranging for everyone to rest, but he had no choice but to respond, and followed the servants to the wing.

"How is it possible? How did Huang Hansheng resign and disappear!?"

But halfway through, Chen Wentian unexpectedly heard Ouyang Jun's roar...

After everyone left, Ouyang Jun got the summary of information from various places sent by the head of the base. Because it is not far from Kuaiji County, this base also naturally acts as the intelligence center for all parts of the mainland.

But after only a few glances, Ouyang Jun asked loudly anxiously, because the subordinates in the mansion reported that there was no trace of Huang Zhong in Nanyang and Changsha counties.According to investigations, he resigned from Changsha County before he was half a year old, but did not return to his hometown...

The reason for Ouyang Jun's anger is that this matter was secretly arranged by him according to the "Book of Heaven" in the mansion. Now that several people have gone out, two of them have failed...

Not only could Huang Zhong not be found, but even the assassination of Cao Cao failed!

Although these things are requested by the "Book of Heaven", the timing has not yet come. They were arranged by Ouyang Jun during his father's serious illness in order to change the center of gravity of the mansion...

Now that the risk has been taken but it has not worked out, and it has scared the snake, Ouyang Jun is of course furious...!
----

On the other side, all the companions who went to rest heard Ouyang Jun's roar, but only Chen Wentian was startled.

After pulling out the memory of the Three Kingdoms in his mind, he can confirm that Huang Hansheng is Huang Zhong, one of the Five Tiger Generals of Shu Kingdom in another time and space!
"This Ouyang Jun really wants to use his grandfather's information advantage to cheat!"

Chen Wentian complained to himself, it's just that Longwei Mansion is too strong in this way, even if they recruit famous generals and advisers in advance, it may affect or even change their ability growth, but at least it will weaken their original power a lot...

Under the ebb and flow, will Longwei Mansion be too powerful by then? After they counterattack the mainland with one click, what will happen to me and Lin Lin!With the pre-war preparations and the foundation of previous savings, how can his pediatrician Juxianzhuang compete against it!

The more Chen Wentian worried, the more he wanted to know the overall layout of Longwei Mansion...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the same time, Ouyang Qi, who was far away in Yizhou, received new good news.

He quickly browsed through the secret letter, and immediately summoned Long Wei's important ministers to discuss!

Ouyang Qi's adopted son Nie Zhen, who was placed in the Han court in the early years, was unexpectedly transferred to Yangzhou Kuaiji county governor! This news is a great surprise for the Longwei mansion who is just about to change their plans!

Although Kuaiji County is quite far from Yizhou, it is one of the richest counties in the southeast of Han Dynasty, just like Wu County.

Even if the rest of the places are very close to Longwei Mansion, they are all barbaric lands. There are only various Shanyue barbarians who refuse to accept the king's transformation. They occupy them without any output or tax, and even spend troops to garrison them.

Although Ouyang Long, Ouyang Qi and his sons of Wu County supported the Sun family in advance, compared with Kuaiji County, which is directly controlled by the people in the government, its importance is greatly reduced.

After Fan Shan, Ban Yong, Ouyang Ling and others came to the meeting hall and heard the news, they were equally excited.

However, Ouyang Qi's second brother, Ouyang Bo, had already gone to the Philippine Islands to set up a base at this time, so he could not be there.

"Your Majesty, this is a great opportunity from heaven. I will arrange for people to go to Kuaiji. I will make a list in three days, and then I will discuss it with you..."

Fan Shan spoke first.

He is the clearest about the various preparations in the mansion. In order to completely get rid of the gentry's control over the grassroots in the future and improve the centralization of power at the top, Longwei Mansion began to set up a school to train grassroots talents many years ago, and now it can be regarded as fruitful. Thousands of "worthy" grassroots talents.

However, these talents have become a kind of waste because they have no place to use them. After all, Yizhou is so big and has such a large population, so naturally there are not many low-level officials.

Except for the bases, caravans, and spies located in various parts of the Han Dynasty, some new manpower will be needed every year, and the number of new jobs will be counted on the fingers.

As a result, except for some of these "graduates" who lay flat and went home to farm, the rest began to be extremely introverted, and even created some bad internal friction. For this reason, Fan Shan has come forward many times to deal with it.

But coercion alone cannot solve the problem fundamentally, and it will only suppress the enterprising spirit of young people in the long run...

Now that Nie Zhen has taken office, he has given these people huge employment opportunities, and eliminated this hidden danger in an instant. According to the existing official establishment of Longwei Mansion, fourteen counties in one county in Kuaiji are enough to provide more than 1000 large and small The "position" of the.

"Wenying wait a minute, I would rather send all the scholars from the academy to Kuaiji."

Ouyang Qi looked at Fan Shan and stroked his beard and said.

"Your Majesty's meaning is..."

Fan Shan was so happy that he didn't turn around.

"Since they are used to 'competition', let's make it equal to 'competition' in practice. The bachelors who went back home to work in agriculture will also be recalled and sent away. At that time, they only need to set up 'deputies' according to what my father said."

"Your Majesty's strategy is very good!"

Healthy competition is also needed, not to mention that the uprising in Fuchu is getting closer and closer.Fan Shan thought for a while and then clapped his hands in praise. Ban Yong seemed to be still immersed in the joy of hearing the news and did not change, while Ouyang Ling pretended to nod in agreement while secretly thinking.

"In addition, starting from this year, the scale of the school will be expanded, and the number of bachelors who complete their studies every year will increase several times in the future!"

"Your Majesty, the Kuaiji garrison and we should also consider recruiting competent personnel from the government to prevent the local gentry from causing trouble."

"It's the right thing to do."

"In this way, the government's expenditure may not be as good..."

"Don't worry about Wenying, all these consumptions have been arranged in Han and Ming Dynasties!"
