"Master Xun, I have a few things I want to discuss with you." Guo Ming said with his eyes lowered.
"But it doesn't matter." Xun Yu waved his hand to Guo Ming to speak freely.
"Master Xun, you have seen through this turmoil that the food problem is very serious. If there was enough food, there would be no Yellow Turban Rebellion. People would die for money, and birds would die for food? In fact, it is not the case. "
"Yes, so do you have a solution?" Xun Yu looked into Guo Ming's eyes and asked with a smile.
"I want to establish a farming system."
"Tell me carefully and listen." Xun Yu took a sip of tea and said calmly.
"Previously, when we recruited Qingzhou soldiers, the vast majority of the million-strong population were women, children, the elderly, weak, sick and disabled. And there were so many of them that they were all appointed to farm. But there was not so much land."
"So, how do you want to solve it?"
"After years of war, the population has dropped sharply, leaving the fields without owners and becoming barren. Secondly, although there are many people, farm tools are scarce and cannot be supplied."
Guo Ming paused, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and continued: "We want to select some of these refugees to learn how to make farm tools."
"In order to ensure the needs of production, they will be allowed to reclaim wasteland. The reclaimed wasteland will belong to them, and we will only collect part of the grain."
"Then the speed of reclaiming wasteland, food production, and production enthusiasm will be greatly improved."
After hearing this, Xun Yu nodded in agreement.
But what Guo Ming said next made Xun Yu feel a little embarrassed.
Because Guo Ming wanted to distribute the vast land of the Yingchuan sect to his tribes and slaves, and asked for the release of the slaves so that they could return home and start a family.
Guo Ming also understood in his heart that the reason why aristocratic families had the right to speak in troubled times was precisely because they had vast fields and formed the so-called manor economy. That's why there are a series of weapons such as bubu.
Doing so is tantamount to injuring an arm, but the enemy should focus on the overall situation.
Guo Ming looked at Xun Yu's troubled expression and continued to persuade him: "Master Xun, think about it, if we give them land, then they will definitely be more willing to work for us, and then the combat effectiveness of our army will be straightened. Rising."
"When the time comes, we will follow our lord to rule the world. There will be so many lands for us to choose from."
"Furthermore, after we annex the Yanzhou noble clan, our strength will definitely rise to the next level. By then, our Yingchuan power will spread all over the world!"
After hearing Guo Ming's impassioned speech, Xun Yu thought about it secretly in his heart for a long time, then agreed, and said that he would discuss it with the Yingchuan companies, and he would definitely make Guo Ming succeed.
"Okay, Mr. Xun, one more thing is that today's method of selecting talents has become somewhat rigid."
"What do you mean?" Xun Yu couldn't help but become curious.
"Looking at the world now, most of the talents come from those famous families. Most of the officials selected to be filial and honest are just in vain, relying on the poor men at the bottom, but they have no way to serve the country."
Hearing this, Xun Yu already guessed what Guo Ming wanted to say, and immediately said: "Are you crazy? Do you know what it means to do this!"
"I understand, Mr. Xun, if we no longer do this, then we, the descendants of the gentry, will be restricted, and the foundation of the family will also be shaken."
Because the aristocratic families cultivate their children and students, they have formed a situation where their disciples and former officials are spread all over the world. This is also one of the characteristics of the noble families.
"Now that you know, you still want to change? I think you are crazy. You are making enemies of the nobles in the world!" Xun Yu said anxiously.
But Guo Ming remained unmoved and said to himself: "Master Xun, I don't want us to have more enemies like Liu Guanzhang. We must make changes after all. Blindly following the old ways will only lead to Self-destruction.”
Xun Yu paced back and forth anxiously, but soon sighed and said quietly: "Brother Xian, what do you want to do?"
"Examinations are used to select talents through a unified and fair examination, so that no matter who they are, they can display their talents, and the test takers will be selected from among us."
"In this way, all the talented people in the world will respect us in Yingchuan. By then, won't there be disciples and old officials all over the world?"
Xun Yu carefully stroked his beard, slammed the table, stood up and said firmly: "Brother Xian, I agree. I will make it clear to the remaining families in Yingchuan."
"When the time comes, we will jointly submit a letter to the lord. I think the rise of the Yingchuan gentry will begin from here, and it will also start from you!"
"Thank you!"
And when Xun Yu looked at Guo Ming, who was much younger than himself, he felt very happy. It seemed that it was time for him, the leader of the Yingchuan faction, to step down and give way to someone more talented.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden tasks (formulating the farming system) and (confirming the imperial examination system).
Obtain mission reward: three free creations! Designate creation once!
"Woc!" Guo Ming exclaimed in his heart.
I have to say that the system is really powerful this time, and it can even designate creations. If you directly create thermal weapons, you will definitely be able to shock China in the near future.
"One more thing, dear brother, Lu Bujun should have recovered these days. A fierce battle is inevitable. You must be well prepared when the time comes."
"Don't worry! As long as Lu Bu dares to lead his army, I will let him come with a thousand troops and five hundred pairs will die!" Guo Ming said with a proud look on his face.
Seeing the proud look on Guo Ming's face, Xun Yu was a little baffled.
And what Guo Ming said is true. His RPG has long been hungry and thirsty. He is ready to blast Lu Bu into hero pieces at any time and seize the red rabbit horse to make him his mount.
At this moment, an urgent letter was delivered to Xun Yu. Xun Yu opened it and couldn't help but feel happy.
"Master Xun? What's wrong?"
"My lord has returned with his army, and will conquer Puyang tonight with the help of the Puyang Tian family. Lu Bu will definitely be defeated by then, and our days away from victory are already numbered."
But Guo Ming didn't feel the slightest joy after hearing this. Instead, his eyebrows were filled with deep worry.
Seeing Guo Ming's appearance, Xun Yu also asked in confusion: "Brother Xian, why shouldn't you be happy about this?"
"Master Xun, guard the city. I will lead my troops to Puyang to save our lord now."
"Brother, why do you say this?" Xun Yu asked in confusion.
"Master Xun, how can you ensure that the Tian family is not committing a false surrender?"
"This..." Xun Yu was speechless for a moment.
"Besides, I have something to do when I go to Puyang."
"What?"
"I'm going to kill Lu Bu and capture Chen Gong alive!"
