Tibet

Chapter 364
It was also a coincidence that just as Li Ye walked out of the mansion, he happened to meet Qiao Bin riding a horse.

"Brother Li!" Qiao Bin waved excitedly.

He got off his horse, ran over quickly, and said excitedly, "My father has agreed for me to go to the river!"

Li Ye smiled slightly: "Let's go find Zhang Ping, have a drink together, and celebrate."

The steward brought an ordinary white horse, Li Ye got on the horse, and the two urged the horse to run towards Dongshi.

The Anranju restaurant next to the gate of Dongshi is very prosperous, and the three of them sat down in front of a window seat on the second floor.

Li Ye ordered more than a dozen dishes, and had a drink with two friends to celebrate.

Zhang Ping raised his glass and asked with a smile: "Abin, why did your father turn around suddenly? I remember last time he said that if you dare to go to the Western Regions, your leg will be broken!"

Qiao Bin said with a smile: "It was King Si Ning who persuaded him. King Si Ning told my father that this opportunity is only once in my life. Because of Brother Li, I can go to the Western Regions to get into the official rank, and come back after ten years. You can become a county magistrate, and spend your whole life in Chang'an as a civil servant."

Li Ye nodded, King Sining was right, Qiao Bin was kind to him, and in order to repay this kindness, only he would promote him, so this was indeed Qiao Bin's only chance in his life.

After all, his father was just a steward of the palace. King Si Ning let his son enter the county government as a civil servant, which was already a great support. It was impossible to let him be an official.

"Qiao Bin, go back and get ready, and then report to the Xuanwu Camp in Bashang East Camp tomorrow, and find Chen Huan. He is my staff member. He is currently serving as a secretary to join the army. You will join the army as a soldier. This is the lower rank of the ninth rank. After one year, he will become a regular in the Ministry of Officials."

Qiao Bin's eyes widened, "Brother, did you become an official so easily?"

Li Ye snorted and said, "Boy, this is called an opportunity. Although most of the civil servants in the Anxi Jiedu Mansion have no fame, you should try to apply for a job. Will you be hired?

Unless you are a Jinshi, or a poet who is famous all over the world, then there is no problem, Feng Changqing will also be a meritocracy, but if you are not a Jinshi, have no fame, and do not have the reputation of a great poet, then it depends on connections Backstage, for example, if you are the son of Li Siye, then you will definitely be allowed in. Taking care of the children of high-ranking military officials is recognized by everyone. "

Li Ye said lightly again: "Let me tell you this! People who ask my father to entrust their relationship, start to line up from here, and they can go into the East City. There are more than [-] people from the court officials alone.

Qiao Bin finally understood that he could only enter because of Li Ye's special relationship, how precious this quota is, he quickly got up and filled a glass of wine for Li Ye, raised the glass and said, "Brother Li's care is always in Qiao Bin's heart, you Don't worry, I will be your confidant from now on, little brother toasts big brother."

Li Ye nodded secretly. Qiao Bin's emotional intelligence is indeed very high, he can speak and behave in the world. If he is more shrewd and capable, he is a talent.

In the Dudu Mansion in Hezhong, the Ministry of Officials only directly appointed four officials, the Dudu, the Deputy Dudu, Chang Shi and Sima, and other officials had to be recommended by Li Ye, the Dudu, because Li Ye had Jingjie, in fact, he was the Jiedushi, and the power of recommendation was in the In his hands, neither the Ministry of War nor the Ministry of Officials can exceed the power of Jiedu.

Of course, Li Ye can't be accepted by just anyone. He has his own principles. The three staff members were arranged by his grandfather, and they are capable and loyal. Qiao Bin's life-saving grace to his mother.

At most, only Zhang Ping and Li Xun would agree to other people, and others were impossible, like Du Wang, Ma Jinsong and others, and Li Ye just talked about it, and if he was really hired, that would not work.

Li Ye is very aware of the preciousness of official quotas, and he has been troubled these days. Many people are looking for connections, wanting to join the Hezhong Army or the Hedong Governor's Mansion as civilian officials, and get mixed up with an official rank, but he refuses to let go.

So why didn't there be a single civilian officer in the army before?That's because the Ministry of War is planning to transfer officials from other departments. Others are officials with official ranks, so of course they don't want to go to the distant river.

Those who really want to go are those people from all walks of life who have no official rank, including civil servants, scholars, and officials' children.

This also shows how precious Qiao Bin's quota is.

Li Ye immediately asked the bartender for a pen and paper, and wrote a letter of appointment on the spot, "I hereby appoint Qiao Bin, the county magistrate of Chang'an, as the military commander of Hezhong Governor's Mansion Cao Shenjun, effective immediately, Li Ye, the governor of Hezhong. '

Below is the date and signature, and Li Ye took off his private seal from his neck, dipped some vermilion mud, and stamped the seal on his name.

Li Ye handed the letter of appointment to Qiao Bin, "I'll go there tomorrow morning. First, find Dongdaying. There are four barracks in Dongdaying. You can find Xuanwuying and ask street vendors. Then you tell the gatekeepers, you The surname is Qiao, find Chen Canjun, the secretary, he will be your immediate boss from now on."

Qiao Bin carefully put away the letter of appointment, and Zhang Ping next to him said enviously, "Old Li, we have been close buddies since we were young, so please give me a chance too!"

Li Ye smiled and said, "Aren't you going to get married in March?"

"After getting married, I can also take my wife to the Western Regions!"

Li Ye thought for a while and said, "If you are serious, I can give you a chance, but if you want to do one thing, you must do it, otherwise you will never have a chance."

"Believe in my perseverance, as long as I am determined to do it, there is nothing I can't do, just say it, what's the matter?"

"I will give you two years. Within two years, you must learn to read and write. I am not asking you to write poetry, but I will give you an article. You can at least read it smoothly. As long as you can do this, I will I'll give you a chance."

Zhang Ping said with a distressed face: "My wife also asked me to read, but I fell asleep as soon as I got the book."

Li Ye said solemnly: "Little Fatty, you are now in the underworld, but you have absolutely no future, and you can only hang out at the bottom. If you come to me, I will first appoint you as the team leader, and then the brigade commander, the school principal, and so on." Lieutenant, you are promoted step by step, but you are illiterate, and you are given a military order, but you don’t know the words on it, so what should you do? After you become a general of Zhonglang, how will you write a report?”

Zhang Ping slammed his fist on the table, "Two years is too long, and one year is enough. I will start with literacy and know ten characters a day. After one year, I will come to Hexi to look for you. If I can't recognize three thousand One word, I won’t come!”

Li Ye nodded, "It's agreed, then one year!"

At this time, the shopkeeper came quickly and whispered something to Li Ye, who was startled, "My father?"

"Exactly!"

Li Ye nodded, "I know!"

The shopkeeper walked away quickly.

Li Ye smiled and said: "My father is looking for me, I don't know what's going on, let's come here today!"

"Then let's go back first."

Qiao Bin got up to go to pay the bill, but Li Ye stopped him, "I've already paid the bill, you go back and practice writing or something, I guess Chen Huan will watch you write tomorrow."

"Writing?"

Qiao Bin suddenly had a bitter face, "Then my handwriting sucks."

"Don't be modest, I know your character, it's very good, besides, it's just a routine, don't worry!"

Qiao Bin nodded, "I see!"

"And you!"

Li Ye pointed at Zhang Ping and said, "Go back and buy a copy of the Thousand Characters. Ten years later, whether you will be Anxi Jiedushi or continue fooling around in the underworld depends on your choice now!"

Zhang Ping laughed loudly, "Okay! As far as Anxi Jiedushi's dream is concerned, I will definitely complete the thousand-character literature!"

Li Ye sent the two away, then came to the elegant room of Chunlan Room on the third floor, knocked on the door, and his father Li Dai's voice came from inside, "Come in!"

Li Ye pushed open the door, and saw five people sitting in the room, his father Li Dai was sitting in the main seat, apparently he was the one to treat guests, Li Ye only knew one of the four people, Wang Wei, and he didn't know the other three middle-aged people.

Li Ye came in to salute, Li Dai smiled at everyone, "This is the dog!"

Li Dai said again: "Ye'er, these are all friends of my father, Uncle Wang, you have met before."

Li Ye saluted and said, "I have seen you uncles!"
