The feudal lord is on Taobao every day

In the middle of the afternoon of this day, the tranquility of Mozhou was quickly broken by a few fast horses galloping out of the palace. After the four horses drove out of the palace, they formed four teams and rushed to the four city gates in the southeast, northwest and finally to the city gate. Behind the bulletin board at the office, the servants on horseback got off their horses and posted the recruitment notice written by Cui Tong himself.

After the notice was posted, it quickly attracted the attention of the people in the city, and within a short time, the notice board was surrounded by people who rushed to hear the news.

Although most of the onlookers were illiterate, everyone still had a lively discussion.

"What is this posting again? Could it be a new decree issued by His Highness King Shun?"

"I don't think so. If it's really a decree, how could there be no officials to read it out?"

"It is said that there was an adult who read the decree to open the fields last time."

"Isn't there going to be a tax increase?"

"Nonsense, His Royal Highness King Shun just issued the decree to open the fields, and also exempted the tax for three years. How could there be a sudden tax increase at this juncture."

The common people discussed for a while, and then an old man who had read some books and could read some words excitedly said: "It's not a government decree, it's a notice from the Shun Palace to recruit workers. We want to recruit a hundred innocent and healthy young men."

Hearing that it was recruiting workers, the onlookers were in an uproar.

"Recruitment? Really, don't be the old man trying to trick people."

"It's about how such a big Shun Palace is short of people."

"Then maybe, King Shun used to live in Chang'an, so naturally there is no shortage of people, but now that he has come to Mozhou, he can't bring all the people from the palace. In my opinion, the old man doesn't seem to be telling lies. It's really Shun Wang's mansion that recruits workers."

"Then why don't you recruit servants and maidservants, only young and strong?"

"You don't care whether King Shun is recruiting servants or servants, as long as he recruits people, it is a good job. If he can work in the palace, how much salary should he get a month."

"It's good or bad, but it's just that I don't understand what this recruitment is for, and I'm always at a loss."

"This big brother is right. I heard from the merchants from Chang'an that King Shun often fought with people in Chang'an, and even broke a leg of the prince who came to pay homage. If I hire a worker, His Highness King Shun will look at me It’s okay to break my leg if my eyes are not right, then my big family will not have to live.”

The person who spoke was a simple and honest man in his early twenties. When he said this, he looked distressed. He was quite moved by the recruitment of the Shun Palace, but recalling some rumors he had heard, he couldn't help but shrink back.

After the man finished speaking, the crowd was silent for a moment, and the old man who had spoken before scolded angrily: "Where did you hear some stupid words, and you just talk here. If others don't understand, we can't understand? His Highness King Shun is here Mozhou announced this kind of good governance, let me wait for dozens of acres of land overnight, and exempted from taxes for three years, and you don’t go to other states to inquire about it, except for the thirteen states under the rule of His Royal Highness King Shun, How can there be such a great good thing, I have received such a great favor from His Royal Highness Shun Wang, and I am not grateful to him. Instead, I spread those crazy words here. Man, I am ashamed to stand with you."

The old man’s stern words were not unreasonable, and the man’s face was red when he was reprimanded. He didn’t know how to refute it for a long time, and finally it was the man’s fellow countryman who smoothed things over: "Don’t worry about this old man, my companion is just stupid, not that Waiting for the ungrateful villain, he also listened to those nonsense, so he asked a little more, please forgive him this time."

The fellow from the man's hometown talked for a while with a smile on his face, and then the old man calmed down a little, and said with a cold snort: "Forget it, he looks simple and honest, and he doesn't look like an ungrateful person, so the old man will let him go. It’s just that he has to be careful with what he says in the future, if he is heard by the officials, he won’t be as easy to talk as the old man.”

Only then did the man feel a little scared, and hurriedly blushed and thanked the old man.

After saying this, the rest of the people were also worried and asked the old man how to recruit workers.

The old man answered one by one according to what was written in the notice, and the people rushed to express their thanks. The man's fellow villager said: "The old man is so understanding of righteousness, and he knows etiquette and etiquette and can read and write, why don't we go to Shun Wangfu to recruit workers? According to the old man's ability, he might even win Shun Wang Qingyan, and promise an official position."

The old man's cheeks were flushed by the man's words, and he waved his hands in fear and said: "Don't dare, His Royal Highness Shun Wang is a vassal king, how can there be no shortage of literate people under his command? With my little ability, I don't want to embarrass myself .”

"The old man is too self-effacing," the fellow countryman persuaded: "It's just a try, even if it doesn't work, there will be no loss of flesh and blood. If it succeeds, then the old man will be an official in the future."

The old man was a little moved by what his fellow countryman said, and the fellow was also a quick-witted person. Seeing this, he continued to say: "I am a mud-legged person, and I don't understand many principles, but I also know that the old man studied in the past for the purpose of being able to serve him one day in the future." The common people do practical things, and now they finally have such an opportunity, the old man must not miss it."

After hearing this, the old man nodded hesitantly, and said: "This fellow is right. I have been studying hard for more than ten years, so that I can show my strengths one day. Now that I finally have the opportunity, how can I If you miss it, I will go recruiting with you, and if you are lucky enough to be selected, I will live up to your expectations and do business for the common people."

The old man's scolding of the man earlier had already convinced the onlookers, but now hearing what the old man said, they immediately responded with words, surrounded the old man and headed towards the Shun Palace.

Similar scenes were staged in the other three places where the notices were posted in Mozhou. Cui Tong was naturally deeply surprised when he saw it, but he was even more ecstatic. He has been accompanying Xie Jingan these days, how could he not know What Xie Jingan lacks most now is people who can read and write. Although one of them is a bit older, Cui Tongguan's words are justified and well-founded, but in a short period of time, many people follow his example. How can this be done by ordinary people who are eloquent? of?

Cui Tong didn't show it on the face, but he was extremely happy in his heart. After registering the names of the young people who came to recruit workers one by one, he couldn't wait to find Xie Jingan, and excitedly talked about the unexpected joy.

Xie Jingan was also quite happy after hearing this, Cui Tong didn't know the ability of this old man, but Xie Jingan still didn't know, this is a proper public opinion talent.

Seeing that he has nothing to say about others' rebuttals in a few words, he has controlled the rhythm of the audience. If it is placed in later generations, this old man is at least a senior reporter, but in this era, it is not considered a buried talent. Others may not understand this old man. Xie Jing'an, who has experienced the information explosion of later generations, knows how to make the most of his ability.

Xie Jing'an lamented Cui Tong's good luck, and at the same time, he wondered if he could start a newspaper with a fortune from the aristocratic family this time.
