Chapter 19 The Long Term Plan

Chapter 19 Long-term plan

There are also some considerations in rewarding merits. Guo Jia defeated Lu Bu in the old way and resisted foreign enemies. The rewards to the soldiers could only be implemented according to the reward and punishment system formulated in the army, because he won the battle but had no actual gains.

It was different to conquer Guanzhong. It was essentially an external expansion. Guo Jia obtained the land resources in Guanzhong. During the feudal period, land was even more valued than official titles.

When slavery collapsed and feudalism emerged, private ownership of land was recognized. Most people wanted to own acre of land, regardless of whether the people's occupation was a peasant or not.

Guo Jia wanted to pay tribute to the three armies, and firstly, to allocate land. Looking at the rise and fall of the dynasty and the reunification of the world after the collapse of the world, all of which were redistribution of resources. ** often produced such an intuitive consequence: the old ruling class died and the new ruling class rose, accompanied by a new round of resource allocation.

Regarding the distribution of land in Guanzhong, Guo Jia has formulated a plan. The Taiping Army was the first to receive rewards because the army was his lifeblood. The next step was to the people who went south from Guanzhong to Yizhou. They could return to their homes. Guo Jia provided assistance, but could not give the land directly to them. As for the powerful and powerful class in Yizhou who wanted to make a decision on Guanzhong, they had to queue up and depend on the situation.

"Yuanzhi sent documents to Chengdu, and the imperial examination will be held in advance after the autumn harvest."

The work of distributing interests is also huge, especially the land in Guanzhong is extraordinary, both in terms of fertility and political status.

Even if the abandoned land was rewarded to the Taiping Army soldiers, production would not start to resume next spring, because they missed the spring plowing, and their families in Yizhou had already invested in this year's production. Now, everything is in trouble and preparations must be fully prepared.

Guo Jia looked at the Guanzhong map and thoughtfully.

During the period when the emperor moved the capital to Xuchang, he had to quickly expand the political group he ruled, otherwise it would be difficult to compete with the princes of Kanto.

In the past two years, the scholars of Yizhou have been looking forward to it. What they are waiting for is Guo Jia's expansion of his territory. Now he has got what he wants. The opportunity for scholars who are determined to become officials is here.

Chang'an is the imperial capital, and the people of Guanzhong are proud of it. Even if Chang'an is abandoned, it still has an unshakable political status. The Great Han and the West cannot be ignored at any time.

Being an official in the Sanjiao area centered on Chang'an is obviously more promising than being an official in a remote area of ​​Yizhou, because as long as Guo Jia's expansion pace does not stop, one day he will leave Yizhou and move the center of rule to a place closer to the Central Plains.

The vacant official positions in various counties and counties in Guanzhong are a stimulant to stimulate the scholars of Yizhou to actively participate in the imperial examinations, and are also the strong way for Guo Jia to rule the political group.

"Lord, will the quota and standards for the imperial examination this time, as well as the newly promoted officials come to Guanzhong directly, or?"

Xu Shu had to ask some details clearly. Guo Jia often only gave an instruction in the general direction, and the details of the Yizhou Prefecture staff discussed and discussed with each other. But this time, the officialdom in Guanzhong was empty, and I am afraid that the entire Yizhou officialdom was focusing on here.

There must be many Yizhou officials who want to come to Guanzhong.

Guo Jia fell into deep thought when he heard this. The talents who participated in the imperial examinations in the past two years were not active. Because the officialdom in Yizhou has been saturated and the number of admissions per year is gradually decreasing, the scholars of Yizhou urgently hope that Guo Jia will expand to the outside world and create space for them to be promoted and become officials.

After a moment of silence, Guo Jia looked at Xu Shu and said, "Yizhou Prefecture does not need to be changed, but it still controls all government affairs under our jurisdiction. After the autumn, the number of officials selected by the imperial examination was controlled to the minimum amount. The number of officials needed by Guanzhong could maintain basic governance, and the number of scholars was selected. The selection criteria should not be reduced. Even if there are few real talents and practical people, they should not be widely appointed. The talents who stood out in this imperial examination should try to stay in Yizhou. The important positions of Guanzhong counties will be promoted and transferred to officials who have already made official positions in Yizhou."

It may take several years to restore the rebirth of Guanzhong. People can return to Guanzhong, but it will not be possible to restore their heyday overnight. The number of officials promoted at one time is not only a burden on expenditure management, but also blocked the path of enrolling scholars in the future. In order to develop rapidly, this step must be planned with caution.

The government affairs are heavy, and Guo Jia also sent a letter from home to Chengdu, briefly telling his family that he would stay in Chang'an for a while and the date of returning to Yizhou will be determined.

In the past month, Guo Jia has handled political affairs in the mansion from morning to night, allowing him to relive the days when he first settled Yizhou.

In early July, the sun is scorching.

There are three gates on each side of Chang'an. In the middle of the west is the city gate. A huge team of carriages slowly entered the city.

Before the convoy that had just entered the city, a group of people suddenly came. The convoy stopped and three families got off from the carriage at the top of the carriage.

The city is depressed and quiet.

Guo Jia stopped, turned over and dismounted, and said loudly to the convoy: "Why don't you notify me in advance when you come from afar? Let me come out to greet you in a hurry, and the courtesy is not good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Jia's eyes lit up.

The leader rolled up the curtain of the carriage, bowed and walked out of a woman with outstanding looks, walked out of the carriage under the help of the maid. When he looked up, he saw Guo Jia, and he showed a bit of a twist. It was Diao Chan.

Diao Chan, who is charming today, is particularly radiant. She usually uses a hairpin to penetrate the top of her hair, and her hair falls naturally, but now she has dressed up carefully.

The black hair is tied up on the top and tied up in a fancy style, like a blooming peonies, colorful and colorful, not only looks elegant and pleasing to the eye, but also adds a sense of nobility.

The upper body is embroidered with green and white embroidered clothes, the lower body is colorful fairy skirt, and the silk and satin are really an art to wear on her, making everything pale.

At first, Diao Chan wore a palace outfit in the palace, had a humble status, and was called around in the palace with strict classes. She was a maid next to Guo Jia. Although she was not ordered to dominate, she was also a little maid with inferiority. This was the first time in front of Guo Jia that was so dazzling and noble.

When she saw Guo Jia, Diao Chan was instantly beaten back to her true form. Her dress made her a little uneasy. She stepped in front of Guo Jia and explained at a loss.

"I, I am the one who is told by Mrs. Cai to dress me up like this, not my original intention."

Guo Jia advocated frugality, Diao Chan was afraid that Guo Jia would not like it, and even Cai Yan and Zhen Jiang were dressed very simple and simple on weekdays.

With a smile, Guo Jia, who came back to his senses, broke free from the beauty and said, "Diao Chan, you opened my eyes today."

Taking a step forward, Guo Jia lowered his voice and continued, "I like your outfit very much."

A scholar dies for his confidant, and a woman is tolerate him for his pleasing.

Diao Chan lowered his head and smiled sweetly, and his fear disappeared.

Guo Jia understood that her outfit was from Cai Yan's idea.

Diao Chan is a slave who seems to have no status in his mansion.

But she is a person outside representing Guo Jia's participation in the Yizhou Business Association.

"Fengxiao, this Chang'an City is so desolate, it's really hard to stay here for you. Wouldn't you be bored?"

The second person who came out of the carriage was Zhen Yu. When he entered the city, he saw the situation in Chang'an City and was very sad.

After all, it was the capital of the Western Han Dynasty. The famous imperial capital is now so bleak and desolate.

Guo Jia walked towards him, Diao Chan followed Guo Jia and regained the image of a little maid who was obedient and obedient.

"Oh, I can't get out of here. Guanzhong is settled at the beginning and everything is in trouble. To restore Chang'an's past prosperity, I'm afraid it will depend on my brother's strength."

Guo Jiagang came to Zhen Yu and said hello. The person who came out of the third carriage also came over.

"The envoy succeeded in his battle and broke into all the worlds. His reputation has spread throughout the counties of Yizhou. Those who heard about it praise the envoy's mighty power. Haha, I'll congratulate you on the envoy."

The person who came in his early thirties was gentle and polite, and kind.

Guo Jia bowed to him and said with a smile: "The rumors are exaggerating. What are my contributions? Just get a bargain. Haha, I heard that Brother Zhang has been happy to have a noble son recently, so I should congratulate you."

This person is named Zhang Xu, and his ancestors are also famous. He has been a three-public high-ranking official. Unfortunately, his family has declined and his career has not been able to continue his glory. He is now a representative figure of Jianwei County, Yizhou Business Association.

Zhang Xulang smiled and gave a gift to Guo Jia, saying, "I thank you for your envoy. It is his honor to be able to worry about Yier of my family."

Guo Jia greeted him, but he didn't think so, but was suddenly shocked.

Yier? Zhang Yi?

I couldn't help but ask: Could it be Zhang Yi, the late general of Shu Kingdom?

It is really possible that Zhang Yi was born in Jianwei County, Shuzhong in history.

He led the way to invite them to the mansion together, and Guo Jia talked and laughed all the way.

In recent years, with the peace of Yizhou, Guo Jia's rule was not based on the gentry to suppress the gentry. In addition, the line of rule of law was not to suppress the gentry, and there was no situation of power and class suppression. The relationship with the gentry of Yizhou eased, and some gentry became a blessing in disguise, and the family business of local gentry was booming.

This is true for the Zhang family in Jianwei County. Although the Zhang family, who joined the business association as a representative of Jianwei County, could not regain the glory of their ancestors in their career, they made a fortune in silence and lived a worry-free life. They did not suppress the gentry. As long as they did not bully others with their power and did not plan or make plans, the Zhang family was a landlord and rich man under Guo Jia's rule. The benefits brought by the handicraft workshops at home were very generous every year, and they lived a very comfortable and comfortable life.

Although his ancestors had the past of the three ministers, people always looked at the present and looked at the future, and could not always live in the glory of the past.

Compared with the history of family prosperity, perhaps just a commoner may tell some staggering glorious history of ancestors.

Just like the Zhuge family in Langya County, who traced their ancestors, but they were even longer than the Han Dynasty. As early as the Shang Tang period, the ancestors of the Zhuge family were the king of the Ge State, even if they were inconspicuous small countries, they were also kings.

Later, the Ge family lived in Zhucheng and liked to introduce themselves to the Ge family in Zhucheng. Gradually, it became Zhuge.

No matter how brilliant the ancestors are, what can they do if they are not satisfied at the moment?

The Zhuge family can only defect to Liu Biao and rely on the warlords.

In this world, no one should compare their family background with anyone. They may be more miserable than others but have a family background.
