Chapter 1510 The Embryonic Form of Xuzhou Power
While the second summit meeting was in full swing in the Great Wilderness Territory, a meeting was also being held in the city lord's mansion in the capital of Tan County, Donghai County, Xuzhou.
The leader of the meeting was Tao Qian, the newly promoted governor of Xuzhou, who would dominate Xuzhou in the future!
And in the two rows below him, sat the pastoral officials and a group of officials from the two counties and three kingdoms of Xuzhou.
Among them, Gu Yong, the governor of Guangling County, was among them.
"Everyone, it is a blessing for everyone to gather here today. It may be an unforgettable memory for you in the rest of your life!" Tao Qian, who was in the first seat, was in his prime, with a ruddy face and full of energy.
Tao Qian was a son of a classical and traditional aristocratic family. He was dressed elegantly and dignifiedly, and was filled with a sense of old-fashionedness. He admired fame and was ambitious, but he was very good to his subordinates.
According to the original historical trajectory, Tao Qian should not have become the governor of Xuzhou so quickly. Instead, he was promoted to the governor of Xuzhou after following Huangfu Song to fight and gain military merit when Beigong Boyu was ravaging Liangzhou and the army was suppressing the three auxiliary provinces.
But this guy is quite good at scheming. He got close to General He Jin, and because of the influence of Lin Mu, Cao Cao and others, he sat on the position of governor of Xuzhou early.
This is actually similar to Gu Yong.
"Come, raise your glass and drink!" Tao Qian raised the wine bottle and said enthusiastically.
"Come! Come! Drink a glass! Congratulations to Envoy Tao for establishing my Xuzhou!" A burly and rough man shouted.
"Drink!"
"Drink first!" There was a flattering voice below, even Gu Yong did the same.
Under the influence of Lin Mu, Gu Yong has gone further and further on that road. The originally upright scholar was led astray by Lin Mu.
For this, Cai Yong said a lot about Lin Mu!
"Everyone, I am originally from Danyang County, and I am also a son of the seaside. I am new here, so I hope you will bear with me! I will toast you again!" Tao Qian raised his glass politely and drank it all.
"Your Excellency is polite! Your Excellency is polite! We will definitely help you to govern Xuzhou well and restore people's livelihood!" Everyone flattered again.
Tao Qian was overjoyed to see everyone cooperate so well, and his face was full of rosy color.
The previous management was not in vain!
"Today, I have called everyone together like this, in addition to gathering with everyone for a drink, I also want to hear if you have any great talents to recommend. Xuzhou is in ruins, and you must contribute your efforts and funds!" Tao Qian exchanged greetings with everyone for a while before telling his main purpose.
"By the way, I also want to introduce you to my colleagues. Alas, I am old and my memory is not good!" Tao Qian patted his forehead and said distressedly.
"You are too modest, envoy. You are busy with many things every day. We, the pastoral officials, should share your worries." A chubby middle-aged man flattered.
Such flattery was too explicit, and many people secretly despised it. Although it was flattery, it was only superficial flattery. It was to give face to the governor. You are a dog licker! !
"Mingxin, you are too kind!" Tao Qian was a little flattered by this face-saving flattery.
Mingxin is the courtesy name of a prefect, whose name is Zuo Rong!
"This is Zuo Rong, the prime minister of Xia Pi State, Zuo Mingxin! His talent is also quite outstanding. He is a great talent in the county. If there is an opportunity, he may replace me and become the governor of Xuzhou!" Tao Qian said loudly.
"You are too kind, envoy! You are too kind! Compared with your talent, it is like a firefly competing with the bright moon!" Zuo Rong said with a smile on his face.
(Mingxin's courtesy name was provided by a book friend [I can only read novels when I'm bored], thanks! Because I don't know Zuo Rong's courtesy name, I borrowed this one!)
"Zuo Rong!!!" Everyone looked at Zuo Rong with a strange expression, clasped their fists and saluted.
Zuo Rong also stood up and nodded in response with a smile on his face.
Zuo Rong is different from other elegant people. He has a round face and fair skin like a woman, which is quite strange! And his smile is very kind, as if there is a strange charm!
Although they flatter Tao Qian, they don't know why they seem to feel that Zuo Rong is very sincere and loyal.
Even Gu Yong had a strange look on his face.
"My lord asked me to be very careful of this person. Is this just the surface? Is he actually hiding his true self?!" Gu Yong's heart suddenly shuddered.
He was on guard in his heart, but in front of him, he didn't feel anything. Even subjectively, it couldn't affect the feeling in front of him. It was really a bit scary!
If Gu Yong knew about the shamelessness of Zuo Rong's real history, he might have cursed him as a shameless person!
"This is Guangling County Governor Gu Yong Gu Yuantan! Yuantan is a disciple of Cai Dajia and the owner of the two ancient books. Yuantan, if you can admire the ancient books, remember to share them with us when you come back!" Tao Qian looked at Gu Yong and said politely.
He introduced Zuo Rong first because Zuo Rong was willing to follow his lead. The second explanation of Gu Yong was because of Cai Yong, who was also very curious about the two out-of-print ancient books that caused a storm in the divine capital Luoyang!
Liu Tao lived in seclusion in Jiaozhou, a marginal state, and thought he was just away from the court, but he didn't expect it was for treasures. Later, he was intercepted by General Lin Mu of the Eastern Expedition, which made him laugh!
"Yuantan!!!" People didn't call Gu Yong the governor, but directly called him by his courtesy name to show closeness. Reputation is very important. Among the governors who entered Xu, Gu Yong has the best family background and connections!
"My dear colleagues! If I encounter any difficulties in the future, you must guide me." Gu Yong said politely.
Among all the people, he not only has a great family background, but also is the youngest.
"These two are Zhao Yu, the governor of Donghai County, and Xue Li, the prime minister of Pengcheng!" Tao Qian said politely.
These two governors relied on their reputation, talents and connections to become the governors of the two counties. They have not had a deep relationship with him so far, so he mentioned it lightly.
Both of them are talented and hate evil. They are great talents in governing a county, so they are not cold to Tao Qian. Although they are also polite, they will not be a licker like Zuo Rong!
(The courtesy name Shouyi is provided by the book friend [Xiaomu is not Mu]!)
"This is Chen Yu, the prime minister of Langya!!" Tao Qian introduced the last governor.
When everyone heard this, their faces tightened. This is the tiger of Xuzhou!
Even Tao Qian, the dragon crossing the river, has to be polite!
Because his family background is awesome! ! ! Compared with Gu Yong, an outsider, Chen Yu is the son of a local prominent family in Xuzhou!
"Gong Wei is the eldest son of the former Taiwei Chen Qiu and Chen Bozhen!" Tao Qian said in a serious tone.
When everyone heard this, a touch of admiration appeared on their faces, for Chen Qiu and Chen Bozhen! This is a fierce minister who seeks to kill the eunuchs!
Unfortunately, he died before killing the eunuchs!
"Hello everyone!" Chen Yu stood up and greeted calmly.
Everyone stood up to return the greeting.
"In addition, the great talent next to Gong Wei is his cousin Chen Gui Chen Hanyu, the nephew of the former Taiwei Chen Qiu and Chen Bozhen, and is currently serving as a clerk in the governor's office!" Tao Qian introduced.
"And the one next to him is Cao Bao, the governor of the Xuzhou Army, the tiger son of the Cao family, a prominent family in Xuzhou!" Tao Qian introduced them one by one.
"The next one is Zhang Kai, an old general of the Yellow Turbans, and is currently the commander of the Donghai County of Xuzhou!" Tao Qian said meaningfully.
When everyone heard this, their faces changed.
Tao Qian actually called the surrendered general of the Yellow Turbans an old general, which is interesting!
It seems that Zuo Rong, Cao Bao and Zhang Kai are basically Tao Qian's people!
Everyone glanced at these people without changing their expressions, especially Cao Bao. When did this guy hook up with Tao Qian!
"Everyone, due to the influence of the Yellow Turban bandits, Xuzhou is in ruins and many positions are still in need of great talents. I wonder if you have any talents to recommend?!" Tao Qian said sincerely.
"Envoy, the Mi family in Qu County, Donghai, Donghai, is a wealthy family. Its business routes are spread all over the states. It can be predicted that its outstanding son Mi Zhu will be the deputy driver to rebuild the business route of Xuzhou!" Gu Yong said loudly.
Everyone was slightly stunned when they heard this. Gu Yong actually recommended Mi Zhu! The Mi family is a famous wealthy family in Xuzhou. Even in Shenzhou, they are a wealthy family, but they are very low-key.
Tao Qian heard this and looked at Gu Yong with appreciation. In fact, the Mi family is one of the families that secretly funded him! He was able to become the governor of Xuzhou so quickly with their help!
"I have heard of Mi Zhu's talent and the prestige of the Mi family. Yes!" Tao Qian said loudly without hesitation.
"Your Excellency, this is Zhang Zhao, Zhang Zibu, from Pengcheng, Xuzhou. He has a solemn appearance, a high talent in classics, and a great talent for governing the world!" Zhao Yu said loudly.
"Your Excellency, this is Zhang Hong, Zhang Zigang, from Guangling, Xuzhou. He has a correct literary sense, a great talent for governing the world! Xu Shao of the Spring and Autumn Monthly Review was looking for Zhang Hong, intending to write a review for him, which would be published in the first issue of this year. Unfortunately, I don't know where he went, so I can't do it," Xue Li said loudly.
If Lin Mu were here, he would definitely laugh and scold: "You, the dean of education, want to covet me too, get out!"
Good guy, great talents were constantly proposed by everyone.
And Tao Qian accepted them one by one.
"Sir, my nephew Chen Deng is a talented person. You can let him serve as the captain of agriculture to properly grow grains and reduce famine!" Chen Yu said loudly.
Damn! This is even better. You are thinking that the Xuzhou Governor's Mansion belongs to the Chen family!
However, to everyone's surprise, Tao Qian agreed without even thinking about it!
The three heroes of the Chen family spread their name to Xuzhou!
After that, some ordinary talents were also recommended by everyone, and the Xuzhou Governor's Mansion began to be filled.
Tao Qian agreed so readily because these people could really provide talents to govern Xuzhou!
He alone could not govern Xuzhou.
