ps: Thanks to the book friend Yuanyuan Meat Tuantuan, the wolf from the grassland for the support!

After receiving Zhang Rang's reply, Yang Rui was already relieved. Later, Zhang Rang summoned Jian Shuo, Feng Fang and Yang Rui's instructions, and Zuo Feng sent someone to send Yang Rui to the "state residence", which is equivalent to the agency of a state-level official and the offices of various states in Beijing. He directly explained to Shi Cheng, the highest official in the state residence, and placed Yang Rui in the state residence.

It was not until this time that Yang Rui realized that as a state governor, he could enjoy free reception from the state residence, and the state residence Shicheng also made up all the salary Yang Rui owed since he took office as the governor of Qingzhou, which was much beyond Yang Rui's expectations!

The salary of the governor of Qingzhou was 800 stones. After settlement by the provincial Di Shicheng himself, Yang Rui was given a salary of half a year, totaling 12,000 units of grain, plus 60 gold coins. This also included the result of Yang Rui's previous position as a general and his salary was added in proportion to an additional part.

Yang Rui didn't know how the salary he received was calculated, and the time period for the system was not included, but this was an unexpected surprise after all. Yang Rui didn't care too much about the amount of money and supplies. This was also the first salary Yang Rui received inside and outside the game!

After resting in the state residence for a night, Yang Rui explained the events that happened here to Gao Shun, Zhang Ning and Cheng Yu. After winning the opinions of several people, Yang Rui returned to Dashan City through the teleportation array through Juping County, and handed over all the various skill books and equipment he had obtained in Xiliang to Wang Hai.

This time, Yang Rui spent a longer time in Xiliang than last time, so he got more money. He obtained all kinds of skill books than the last time. Among them, nearly 20 sets of skill books for intermediate generals, nearly 150 sets of skill books for junior generals. More than 3,500 skills books for first-level warriors, more than 500 skills books for level 5 cavalry transfer, more than 4,500 skills books for level 4 cavalry transfer, and other scattered skills books.

What Yang Rui cares most about is the skill books of generals, first listed in the warrior skills books and cavalry skills books. Although due to the progress of the game, it is impossible to gain anything from the Western Qiang rebels in a short period of time, the various skill books he has obtained in Xiliang for nearly a month can be said to be enough to digest them for a while in Dashancheng.

In the next two days, Yang Rui inspected various territories and made some arrangements for recent related matters. While resting in the state residence, Yang Rui had already handed over the three of Gao Shun, Zhang Ning and Cheng Yu, explained his plan to train the new army in Xiyuan to several people, and obtained unanimous support from Cheng Yu and others, so Yang Rui may not be able to stay in the territory for a long time in the next period of time.

Since he had to select soldiers and men in the West Garden, Yang Rui returned to Luoyang Imperial City two days later, and lived in the state residence that night. He only waited for the next day to select soldiers and men in the commander's position and men, and then immediately implemented his previous plan!

However, I didn't expect that there would be a small episode before that. The moment Yang Rui came to the state residence again, an employee in the state residence handed over an invitation to Yang Rui, and the one who sent the invitation was the general - He Jin!

The content of this invitation was He Jin invited Yang Rui to the banquet. Yang Rui must go to the General's Mansion tonight to attend the banquet! This is a bit interesting. Yang Rui guessed that it should be because of the Xiyuan New Army. At present, the Xiyuan New Army has not been completed, and the two major groups of eunuchs and foreign relatives have begun to fight!

In fact, Yang Rui was not good at intrigue, and he was not willing to participate too much in such matters. However, the position of Xiyuan lieutenant was originally the product of the battle between eunuchs and relatives. After a moment of hesitation, Yang Rui asked the State Di Shicheng for a carriage, headed straight to Zuofeng's mansion, and told Zuofeng the original story.

"Lieyang will go away. Our family already knows this and will report it to the Zhongchangshi. If the general gives you any gifts, Lieyang will not need to refuse. Just hold it..."

Zuo Feng's reaction was very calm and did not stop Yang Rui from going to the banquet. It was obvious that he wanted to use Yang Rui as a secret chess! After learning about Zuo Feng's attitude and intention, Yang Rui went to the general's mansion shortly after returning to the state residence, but this time Yang Rui rode a horse to go.

Based on the consensus of the player group, He Jin was a butcher, and Zhou Quan, who was concealed by Queen He, then became the general. However, when Yang Rui really met He Jin, he realized that this statement was a bit biased.

Although it has to be said that He Jin is due to Queen He, and according to his later actions, he has many shortcomings, the General He that Yang Rui saw does not seem simple. Whether his words or actions at the banquet are different from Yang Rui's previous cognition.

"I am really happy that all the talents can come here today! Let's drink this cup first!"

There were four other people invited by He Jin to the General's Mansion, namely Yuan Shao, Zhao Rong, Xia Mou and the Dragon Soul of the Shui Lun. It was not uncommon for several other lieutenants to come. However, Cao Cao did not show up at two "meeting meetings". I don't know whether both sides had their own concerns or whether Cao Cao was unwilling to participate.

"As a matter of fact, all the talents are good at drinking. They are the new Xiyuan Captain. This general should give you a few cups. We must drink some of them..."

The wine used at the banquet was even more than the Yipin Xiangte Brew, a specialty of Dashan Town. After He Jinhui poured several glasses of wine, the Xiyuan lieutenants present were already a little excited, and various topics were relaxed, and gradually concentrated on the government.

"All the talents and aspiring people are almost unquestionable. For this reason, we will drink this cup again!"

However, He Jin interrupted everyone's discussion and took the initiative to guide everyone to drink.

"I would like to ask the general to plan for us and give me some advice!"

Yuan Shao was the most active person at the banquet. When he saw He Jin just didn't mention "serious business", he felt a little anxious.

In fact, none of the Xiyuan lieutenants present were fools, including Yang Rui and Shisu Longhun. Even though there were not many opportunities to discuss before, everyone was very clear about He Jin's purpose of the banquet!

"Today, I invite all the lieutenants to celebrate, just to celebrate you, especially Lieyang and Traceable Dragon Soul, who met this general for the first time, and I have to drink more drinks!

This general is naturally very optimistic about your future actions, but you must always keep in mind the responsibilities of each person, keep your official support in mind, and protect the important land of the imperial city. This is the main task of the new army in Xiyuan!

At the same time, this is also the job of our soldiers. Therefore, all the captains and I should be together and work together to do their best to do our soldiers! Why not drink this cup with me to show our soldiers' sincerity and care?!"

Putting aside his inherent identity, He Jin's words actually brought all the people present to the same front line, which was considered to be some means!

"Perform your duties conscientiously! Drink this cup full!"

Yuan Shao and others all stood up, and Yang Rui and Zhisu Longhun naturally stood up and drank the things in the cup! After that, everyone at the banquet did not mention the drinks and talked, which was very harmonious on the surface.

What happened later was exactly what Zuo Feng said before. When the banquet was about to end, He Jin took advantage of his actions and presented a 8th-grade black horse to each of Yuan Shao, Zhao Rong, Xia Mou, Yang Rui and the five people of Shulu* Dragon Soul! Everyone of the five lieutenants who attended the banquet had a share, including Shulu* Dragon Soul, was quite surprised by He Jin's work.

Yuan Shao, Zhao Rong, and Xia Mou accepted it without much refusing. When it was Yang Rui's turn, he refused and took it. The same was true for tracing the * Dragon Soul, but Yang Rui discovered a hint of hesitation in the expression of tracing the * Dragon Soul.

It was almost late at night when He Jin's banquet ended. Since he had to select soldiers and men in the West Garden the next day, several lieutenants left in a hurry. He traced back to the dragon soul that he wanted to call Yang Rui and chat for a few words, but Yang Rui greeted him and rode away.

In fact, Yang Rui was just happy to see the hunting and was eager to try the attributes of the horse. Previously, Yang Rui had personally caught a sixth-grade horse, but later he gave it to Zhang Liao for free. However, he had never encountered a top-grade horse during the horse catching Xiliang. Now Dong Zhuo has given a batch of eight-grade dark horses, so Yang Rui is naturally very happy.

However, this test ride felt a difference. This 8th-grade dark horse still has a lot of gap compared to the 6th-grade horse captured by Yang Rui. It is incomparable to the horse in terms of body shape, speed, and spirituality.

Even so, Yang Rui got 8-grade horses for free this time and received 100 gold coins. He was already very happy! For several days, whether it was paying salary or getting horses and gold coins, they were beyond Yang Rui's expectations...

When Yang Rui arrived at the selection site the next day, Cao Cao and his men were already waiting there. When they saw Yang Rui coming, Cao Cao reminisce about the old days. The two had passed by each other in the battle of Yingchuan in the Yellow Turban Uprising. Until later, Cao Cao and Yang Rui had several contacts, they were considered old acquaintances.

From Cao Cao's mouth, Yang Rui learned that half of the candidates selected by the Eight Captains of Xiyuan this time were 4th-level soldiers. Just need a little training in the training ground set up in the West Garden to successfully reach 5th-level soldiers within four or five months.
