Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 491 Recruitment Order!

"You are clever enough to come up with such a way." The First Emperor nodded and was convinced.

The amnesty for the world was issued in the name of Xiao Zhinu. The First Emperor promulgated it. It would be no problem for Zhao Si, as his biological father and grandson, to publicize a talent recruitment order in his name.

Recruiting talents... This guy always has unexpected cleverness in a small place like this.

Recruiting talented people with the help of government orders that understand the world will surely gather more talented people from all over the world faster.

"The new officials who were dismissed in the past all have official status documents in the government. There is no need to borrow the recruitment order. They can just reinstate them. It doesn't have to be so troublesome." The First Emperor said.

"Let's forget it..." Zhao Si shook his head.

"Those who are willing to join my service through the Recruitment Order will be subject to the assessment. If there are people with real talents and practical knowledge who do not join the Recruitment Order, I will send someone to invite them myself." Zhao Si thought for a while and chose to refuse this simpler method.

"The dispute between the old and the new in the past is, after all, a matter that has been finalized. Although it was headed by Prime Minister Li, it was actually the will of the great father. It was resurrected through the court. There were many iterations. The more troublesome it was, the more troublesome it was. After all, it was the will of the great father. The reform will also be led by Prime Minister Li, and the reputation and authority of Prime Minister Li cannot be too low." Zhao Si said.

When the First Emperor heard the sound, he glanced at Zhao Si slightly and nodded.

It was not that the First Emperor did not think of these trivial matters. The main reason was that his great-grandson had just been born. The First Emperor was preoccupied with his great-grandson and imagined the rule of the four generations of saintly kings in the Qin Dynasty, so he ignored them.

What Zhao Si said was either big or small.

The main reason is that Li Si was the original suppressor, suppressed by the court, and then revived by the court, which will inevitably damage Li Si's authority.

Of course, this was of no consequence to the First Emperor.

After all, just the word "Shi Huang" means that he can ignore most of the rules in the world.

"Just let go and do something..." The First Emperor waved his hand, too lazy to continue thinking about these things with Zhao Si.

Well... It's autumn now, and the weather will turn cold in a few days. His great-grandson has just been born, and the First Emperor has already begun to think about taking his great-grandson to Tangquan in a few days.

Just in time, I can avoid the cold and take some time to take care of my great-grandson.

This kid Zhao Si always relies on himself to check for his mistakes and fill in any big problems. Stay away so that this kid won't wander over when he has nothing to do.

As for being far away from the center, will there be any problems?

With Zhao Si, Fusu and Li Si, most problems can be solved. If there is a big problem, it is impossible for the First Emperor not to know about it.

He just actively avoided Zhao Si, not really closing his eyes and blocking his ears.

With Heibingtai and Meng Yi here, let alone Tangquan, even as far away as Lingnan, all major events in the world are at the palm of your hand.

The biggest problem at present is probably to clearly define the scope of responsibility of father and son Zhao Si and Fusu before running away.

After all, the king is no longer here, and the two saints share the same dynasty. If there is no clear distinction between them, it is inevitable that there will be unclear responsibilities.

After roughly discussing it with the First Emperor, Zhao Si hurried back to be with his wife and children.

The little baby slave has just been born, has just been fed milk, and has already fallen asleep.

Yu Ji held the little child slave in her arms with a gentle smile on her face.

Amber was lying on the side, not sleeping, looking straight at the little child slave sleeping in Yu Ji's arms.

Zhao Si also had a son for the first time. Being a father for the first time, he felt strange in his heart. He always felt that he and this little guy seemed to have an inexplicable bond.

Subconsciously, he stretched out his hand and pinched the little child's face. The little guy hummed twice and frowned, but he seemed to be really sleepy, but he didn't wake up.

"I'm asleep, don't wake me up." Yu Ji looked at Zhao Si angrily and patted Zhao Si's hand.

On the other side, the little child slave's godmother Amber also opened her eyes wide, and wrapped her tail around Zhao Si's legs, trying to pull Zhao Si away.

"You guy..." Zhao Si rolled his eyes at the serious Amber and felt dumbfounded.

Amber is really weird. He has been more nervous than Yu Ji ever since she was pregnant.

After the child was born, she looked at the little child as a slave. Those who didn't know it thought she was born from Amber...

"I'm his father, and he can only call you godmother after I ask him to, understand?" Zhao Si knocked Hu Hu's head hard.

Yu Ji was laughing with joy...

After another moment of tenderness, the fatigue caused by childbirth came over her, and Yu Ji fell into a deep sleep.

Zhao Si rarely chose to go on strike for a day and spent a good day at home with his wife and children.

Surprisingly, the little guy is different from other babies. He doesn't cry much at all. He only moans a few times when he's hungry and pees.

As a novice baby daddy, Zhao Si really has no experience. Fortunately, in this feudal society, there are enough servants to take care of him, so Zhao Si doesn't have to worry about changing diapers, so he doesn't feel troubled.

The next day, the court meeting was held...

The First Emperor once again granted amnesty to the world in the name of my great-grandson and my great-grandson having a son!

At the same time, Zhao Si took advantage of the amnesty decree and issued a recruitment order to inform the world!

In the crisp autumn weather, it is the harvest season. The pigs and sheep are fat and the ears of grain are full...

The common people's hard work for a year finally paid off.

Because of the order to move the royal tombs, the local wealthy families who controlled the land suffered a strong blow, and the common people were able to obtain more cultivated fields. At present, the overall situation in the entire Qin Dynasty is that there are more people and less land. In addition, The tax is only 11%, and there are high-yielding grains. Even if the management is not so meticulous, the whole family still has a lot of surplus.

Not to mention, even if there are occasional people who are extremely poor, they still have high-yielding crops like sweet potatoes to ensure their survival.

With sufficient grain production, naturally no one uses sweet potatoes as a staple food.

But common people are used to poverty and have their own ways to save money.

Some sweet potatoes are planted on the relatively barren land at the edge of the fields.

After harvest, store it in the cellar and eat it with staple food.

If it is inconvenient to store, then make it into dried sweet potatoes.

When cooking and eating, add some dried sweet potatoes to it to fill your stomach without causing bloating after eating too much sweet potatoes.

As the most down-to-earth food, although sweet potatoes cannot replace the status of staple food, they have quickly entered thousands of households. They cannot be on the dining tables of wealthy families, but they have obviously been integrated into the lives of common people all over the world.

For example... the former Qin officials were in Xi's home.

It is now forty-two years. As a scribe in the former Qin Dynasty, Xi, who is over fifty years old, is no longer young.

Under the candlelight, Xi took the letters sent from afar.

Due to insufficient paper production, it is currently only circulated within the government. After all, in addition to daily use, there are also official documents over the years that need to be recorded and backed up on paper.

Since Xi was forced to retire due to political attacks, he has been staying at home and writing behind closed doors. He has not had much contact with the outside world and is not very informed. Therefore, he only found out about it when his old boss sent him a letter. Paper already exists as a more convenient writing medium.

His old boss, Yue Teng.

He is an official and a famous general...

It's just that Teng was not a Qin official, he started out as a military official.

Later, when Teng was relegated to Nanyang, the newly promoted Qin official Xi and Teng had an intersection.

Mainly because he liked to write the book "The Way of Being an Official". Xi was born as a serious Qin official, and the education he had always received was the way of governing.

Maybe it's because of his personality, or because of the changes of the times, or because of his talent.

Do you like the old ideas of official administration?

The superiors are harsher than the subordinates, and the subordinates are harsher to the people.

But he did like the rigor of the Qin official system. This rigor did have a unique beauty in his eyes.

In the conflict of ideas, Xi did not betray Legalism, but subconsciously looked for a new way out.

Later, after extensive communication, I realized that I was not alone. It turned out that there were many people with this kind of thinking.

I like the rigor of the rule of law, but I hate that under the rule of law, superiors and subordinates are strict with each other, and there is no peace in Guizhou.

The rigor of the old law was superficial, but Qian Shou's heart was always filled with fire when faced with such cruel treatment.

The changes of the times have made many people aware of various problems.

As the first to bear the brunt, Legalists and Qin officials were the first groups to give birth to new ideas.

After all, they are the executors, and naturally they are also the first to see the problem.

So after communication and precipitation, Xi initially wrote "The Way of Being an Official".

Therefore, he was also appreciated by Shi Teng, who was stationed in Nanyang at that time.

Later, Teng naturally absorbed the new officials' ideas.

Because he was not born in the right way, Teng was more willing to accept them. With the help of a group of people with lofty ideals, Teng was repeatedly appreciated by the First Emperor. At his highest moment, he was named the internal historian by the First Emperor, in charge of the capital Xianyang and the four districts of the capital. There are more than ten counties, covering approximately the present-day Guanzhong Plain and Shangluo area.

Teng is an example of the new officials' thoughts...and what Teng has to face is the group of old officials headed by Li Si.

Before the dispute between Confucianism and Legalism, there were already differences within Legalism.

Should we continue to imitate Shang Yang, or take a new path?

Faced with internal and external troubles and tremendous pressure from the First Emperor, Li Si made the final decision.

He followed the will of the First Emperor and abandoned the development of the times. Therefore, the basic ideas of Shang Yang's old law were continued to help the First Emperor establish his authority and rule more quickly. However, Teng's group of people were naturally abandoned, and a large number of new officials were dismissed. Disheartened and disheartened, Teng chose to resign.

Xi was also implicated at that time and was dismissed.

Disappointed, Xi no longer cared about national affairs and was pessimistic about the future of Da Qin. He chose to write a book behind closed doors to concentrate on his work.

Unexpectedly, it turned out that the Qin State was indeed heading towards an increasingly crazy path.

But suddenly everything seems to have changed.

The world seems to be getting better and better.

Before he had time to read the letter sent by the old officer Teng, he heard his wife's voice and came to the desk with the letter in his hand with a smile.

Hmm... You have to come over first when your wife calls. If you don't move, I'm afraid there will be another noise.

I looked down and saw that today's meal was wheat rice stewed with dried sweet potatoes again. The only difference from the past was that today there was meat in it.

"Why is there meat? Where is the inkstone?" Xi asked.

Because he had been writing books behind closed doors and often bought books, Xi rarely engaged in farm work, and the cost of buying books was quite high, so he relied almost entirely on his wife and son to take care of the household.

This is also the main reason why Xi respects his wife very much.

"The autumn harvest is here! I'm in a hurry to harvest it. I still have to take time to come back and cook for you. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll starve to death at home. You'll just sit in the study all day long, but you don't know what you're doing. Even the autumn harvest can help you." Forgot!" The happy mother-in-law knocked on the table.

"The letter from Shangguan from Guanzhong..." Xi Yang praised the letter in his hand and read it while eating.

"Huh? Amnesty for the world? Prince, grandson? Recruitment order?"

Because of his low status and being far away from Xianyang, Xi Huan really didn't know that so many changes had happened in the world.

Da Qin, is it starting to get better?

If you think about it carefully, the taxes have changed. This cannot be superficial. It seems that His Majesty has really changed his mind?

The prince is the eldest son Fusu, and the grandson is the eldest son Si!

Xi has heard of these two names, and they are highly praised by people all over the world.

In this case, Da Qin’s future is very bright!

"Have a look! What's there to see? You've already been implicated and fired. Nei Shiteng has resigned and retired. It's just a letter. What can you tell?" The happy mother-in-law muttered as she changed her shoes and prepared to go out.

"It's hard to say..." Xi ate a bowl of meat soup and smiled, ignoring his mother-in-law's thoughts. He put the letter on the table and fell into deep thought.

This letter from Teng came out of the blue...

Although Xi was appreciated by Teng, their status was very different and they had no personal relationship. Xi was not good at socializing, so they had no contact for more than ten years.

A letter came out of the blue today, which caught me off guard.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that it was because of the recruitment order!

His Highness Taisun issued a recruitment order to recruit talented people, regardless of their family status, origin, family wealth, or past. They will be treated equally and will be promoted based on their talents. All of them will be examined by His Highness Taisun himself. , if successful, you can enter the mansion to listen to it.

As if to specifically emphasize the value of the grandson, Teng also specifically explained the First Emperor's love for Zhao Si and how much power Zhao Si currently holds.

This is not the mascot of the past.

The grandson really has real power, and his power is much greater than that of the prince Fusu. In the entire Qin Dynasty, the first emperor was the most powerful, followed by the grandson and the prince third.

Once it has passed, there must be a job.

Moreover, Taisun was the only prince in the Qin Dynasty.

The feudal state of Zhao State is real!

Even if you can't seek an official position in Xianyang, you can still seek one in Zhao.

It can be said that the job prospects are bright and messy.

"Don't care about the past, don't care about family background, just do it based on your talents!" Xi took a deep breath.

I am already over fifty years old...

Touching his gray beard, a trace of determination flashed in his happy eyes.

Strictly speaking, this is the first recruitment order that has ever been issued to the world!

Needless to say, there are no shortage of new officials who have suffered political defeats. There is naturally no shortage of people in the world who have no way to seek official positions but want to show their ambitions.

then!

exploded!

Zhao Si's threshold was shattered just a few days after the recruitment order was issued!
