Chapter 92
Zhang Ying didn't want to go out, so Sun Hao took Erqiao to wander around Wanling.
Women these days are not really going to go out without going out, and it is normal to go shopping together.
On the contrary, the concubine will be less likely to go out, after all, the identity of the concubine is quite special.
Erqiao is also a famous beauty in Jiangdong, so she doesn't go out much in order to avoid suspicion.
Only when the holidays are different, Sun Hao can finally travel openly...
"Every time I come out, I find that Wanling seems to have changed again." Xiao Qiao was very curious about everything around her. The street vendors seemed to be different from five days ago.
Even if the product changes.
The surrounding shops seem to be more lively, and there are more people on the street.
"After all, Wanling is the capital of the prefecture, and with the peaceful Taiping of Danyang County, the roads are smooth, so there are more business trips coming from all directions." Sun Hao followed behind and said with a smile.
This peace and prosperity are the result of his efforts with the officials.
Therefore, the more prosperous Wanling is, the more prosperous Danyang is, and the more prosperous Yangzhou is, the more fulfilling they feel as rulers and governors.
The three of them are in love with each other and are full of affection, so they are naturally extremely happy to walk along the way.
But Zhou Tai, who is a guard and the people who are guarding in the dark, is really tormenting.
There are three people to protect, but there are so many people around.
At this time, if someone jumps out and assassinates with a crossbow, or a poisonous dagger, it will be hard to defend against.
Fortunately, I saw someone guarding me. Even if the people around me didn’t know Sun Hao, they knew that the three people in front of me were not easy to mess with, so they all avoided them.
Those who know each other basically say goodbye or say hello, and dare not get close.
Anyone who knows it knows that Sun Hao has been assassinated twice.
No one wants it because the guard is too nervous and accidentally kills himself.
Those who don’t know will not come forward and dare not come forward easily.
Of course, as long as someone leans over, the guards will stop him.
"Haha, it seems that my identity has improved, but I can't go shopping easily." After walking around for two rounds, Sun Hao couldn't help but smile.
"It's not too late anyway, so why don't we go back?" Da Qiao said with a smile. It was not long for him to come out, but it was enough.
As the governor, Sun Hao has been busy with all kinds of things every day. He finally had to take time to spend the rest of his life with him.
They can already feel the consideration of men. As concubines, it is not good to be too willful.
Seeing that Da Qiao was going back, Sun Hao certainly didn't plan to continue shopping.
But he felt it was still early, so he finally asked the guards to escort the two girls back, so he decided to go to Shangxian Hall to take a look.
Today, Shangxian Pavilion has been expanded three times and can accommodate 500 people to live at the same time.
This also means that 500 people should prepare food and accommodation every day. If Sun's income had not increased rapidly, Sun Hao would have been so squandered.
Fortunately, scholars and rangers are also shameless, so it is natural that they can be selected. They have not been selected for a month, so they naturally know that they are not good at studying.
Sorry, I was embarrassed to stay any longer, so I said goodbye and left.
There are basically no ones who have been lying on it.
Therefore, although it can accommodate 500 people, the permanent residents are often less than 200 people.
Sun Hao rarely comes to select materials by himself, but instead sets some selection criteria and then asks his subordinates to take turns to select.
From another perspective, the civil and military officials who have been promoted through these people will most likely become the team of their sect.
The Jianghuai Sect, Runan Sect, Jiangdong Sect and clan sect cultivate the team in this way and balance each other.
"Everyone, I haven't seen you for a long time!" Sun Hao came to Shangxian Pavilion. It would be better to say that someone would come to tell everyone before he came.
I haven't come here for a while, and there are basically no faces here. To be honest, Sun Hao doesn't know these people either.
This sentence "Long time no see" is not so much a greeting, but rather a sigh of emotion, feeling that I have not been here for a long time.
"Meet the envoy!" The civil and military officials in Shangxian Pavilion returned their greetings after hearing this. No one expected that Sun Hao would come here in person today.
But he didn't notice that in the corner of the crowd, a scholar looked at Sun Hao with interest.
"He is Sun Boyan? I didn't expect that he was already the governor of a state at a young age." The scribe smiled.
Guo Jia, Yingchuan, was born into the sidelines of the Guo family in Yingchuan.
In the early years of Chuping (190), he once went to Yuan Shao at the invitation of his clan brother Guo Tu.
It was just that Yuan Shao's character was so he finally left and he was unemployed at home since then.
It was also not long ago that after being introduced by classmate Xun Yu, he became an official in Cao Cao.
But he deliberately kept his weakness and was not reused.
This time I went south, I came here as a member of the mission.
He is a minor official who is not valued and has a careless and unreasonable personality.
At the same time, Cao Ang, who was the commander, was kind-hearted, so he allowed him to take a step first to understand Sun Hao's personality to facilitate subsequent negotiations.
So he went south to Wanling and found that the existence of Shangxian Pavilion was found, so he used the pseudonym Guo Jia to check in here.
Anyway, he can buy wine and drink free food and accommodation as much as he saves.
The only dissatisfaction is that the wine in Yangzhou is slightly expensive.
It’s very strange that the grain output here is not low, and it’s not as dry as the Central Plains, so why is the price of alcohol so expensive?
After a closer look, I found out that Sun Hao adjusted the tax rate.
The tax rate for grain is ridiculously low, but the tax rate for alcohol is very high.
In order to increase profits, merchants can only increase the price of alcohol.
You can't carry too much, after all, there are also many people who make wine, and the price is too high, so customers will buy it at the lowest price.
Therefore, although the price of alcohol in Yangzhou is high, it is not so high that it is outrageous, and the people can still accept it.
"You can know how to guide Yangzhou's industries by adjusting tax rates. If Sun Hao didn't think of it, then there should be experts under his command!" Guo Jia became more and more curious about Sun Hao.
He took the path of Xiyang Hou and became the magistrate of Jing County. In three years, he became the governor of one area. The six counties in Yangzhou occupied five counties.
Oh, I heard that Yuzhang County was divided and Luling County was established, which was the six counties.
Unexpectedly, such an existence will come to Shangxian Pavilion in person today.
I clearly heard that Sun Hao rarely comes.
I thought I wouldn't meet, so I came to register.
But now I have met him, but I have the idea of meeting him.
Originally, his identity should not have any contact with Sun Hao.
The problem is that he is not a person who follows the rules.
After a few simple greetings to everyone.
Unlike in the past, he took the initiative to ask, could anyone meet the questions and standards he gave before, or had answers?
This has become a fixed activity in Shangxian Pavilion, and the standards for military generals are almost fixed.
On the side of the civil minister, Sun Hao would give a question every five days, put it in Shangxian Pavilion, and then he would tell the ministers who would come here tomorrow the answer one day in advance.
In a sense, this is also a kind of countermeasure. If extended, it is the original scientific research.
Asking questions is also strange and involves various fields, and the purpose is to select specialized talents.
But if a scholar who has not been admitted after six questions in a month will choose to leave.
I don’t know when this habit started, but it was actually arranged by Lu Chi at Sun Hao’s instructions.
Find a few "scholars" and shout a few words, and other civil officials also need face.
If you don’t meet the standards for a month, it would be too embarrassing to stay. It’s better to go back and study hard for a few years before coming.
Over time, it became the default rule of Shangxian Pavilion.
Perhaps the scholars were not stupid. They saw Sun Hao’s intentions and actively cooperated.
Thinking about it, I failed the countermeasures four times and didn’t go back and study hard, so I wouldn’t have the face to stay.
As for Guo Jia, after two days of visiting here, he already knew all the inside story of Shangxian Pavilion.
If you have the answer, recommend yourself, then enter the hall and write down the answer in two hours.
He would watch these scholars write down the answers in the main position, which would have some meanings of palace examinations.
"The problem of this round is how to develop if you arrange for you to develop in a place surrounded by mountains and forests and almost no arable land. Since I have come here in person, I will give you a reminder, that is, the State of Minyue!" Sun Hao looked at everyone.
There were many scholars who signed up for the exam this time, a total of twenty.
If you can pass the exam, it is worthy of praise for having this courage.
Sun Hao plans to use troops against the Minyue Kingdom?
Guo Jia was stunned when he heard this and became a little confused.
Generally speaking, you should not look at Jiangbei?!
