After returning to Liaodong, Li Su spent more than half a month to sort out everyone's personnel and everyone arranged it clearly.

There is nothing much to say about the generals anyway. Guan, Zhang, Zhao and Zhou Tai are already in Qingzhou. Dian Wei followed Li Su. If these people want to stay, the court would worry that they would undermine Xu Rong and be respectful in the future. It would be best if they were willing to go clean with Liu Bei.

Li Su left only a Taishi Ci who was not yet visible and had never heard of the name of the court, as a spare tire insurance.

As for civil servants, the court's original intention was to retain all the original positions.

Lu Su was a special matter. Li Su thought of some excuses and asked for favors to help Lu Su with the reason that "living in the shore of the East China Sea for generations, not withstand the bitter cold in Liaodong, and not adapting to the local conditions." He asked for illness and resting.

However, since it is a special matter, it is difficult to copy. Other civil officials have to leave behind to contrast Lu Su and reduce the court's fear of "Liu Bei's in Liaodong is too popular."

Therefore, Tian Chou, a "local" who was originally from Youbeiping, was further reused. Although the current rank has not been officially reported to the court for promotion, he asked him to hand over to Lu Su and gradually manage the work of the most important Xiangping County Magistrate.

Tian Chou was just a representative, and other capable officials from Youzhou, but not from Liaodong, were also promoted and assessed by Li Su.

For example, Li Su found a young man named Tian Yu in the local officials left by Liu Bei. Tian Yu is from Yuyang and is half a fellow villager with Liu Bei. In history, he also defected to Liu Bei early.

However, according to the original trajectory, Liu Bei should have been under Gongsun Zan at that time, and Liu Bei was already directly under the prefectural governor Liu Yu in this life.

After Tian Yu followed Liu Bei for many years, he wandered to the south because Liu Bei lost his base and was wandering to the south. Tian Yu's old mother was seriously ill. Tian Yu wanted to return to his hometown in Youzhou to serve his elders, so he said goodbye to Liu Bei.

But in this life, Liu Bei still had a base in Youzhou, with Li Su's endorsement. Everyone knows that serving Mi Zhu is equivalent to serving Liu Bei. Without my mother's worries, I feel very unified in my thoughts.

In addition, Mi Zhu is a rich man and has a very good grasp of the treatment of officials.

Since the middle of the year, the construction of the Dashi Port has been concentrated on building the Dashi Port, finding a place for immigrants from the south, and facilitating trade and sea transportation of grain, Mi Zhu found that the Dashi place is very livable in warm winters and cool summers.

Therefore, Mi Zhu took advantage of the opportunity of "resetting refugees with work instead of relief", arranged 20,000 hungry people to build the Dashi City, and reclaimed land near Dashi, and even made full use of the land: fruit trees can be planted on the hillside, grapes introduced from Changban can be planted in the Western Regions, and wheat with less water is planted on the flat ground. Next year, another 30,000 hungry people in Donglai come to Dashi to continue reclaiming land.

The Dashi place is Dalian in later generations, and its climate and agricultural structure are similar to that of Donglai (Qingdao/Yantai) on the other side. Although there are no rivers because of the peninsula terrain. However, with the agricultural technology of the Han Dynasty, dry crops were planted along the coastal plains of the Wafangdian-Zhuanghe on the northeast side of Dalian in later generations, and it is still no problem to self-sufficiently feed 200,000 people.

There is a total of more than 1,000 square kilometers of flat land reclamation area here, which is close to 2 million mu. It can cultivate 60,000 to 70,000 yuan in full, and it will be less than 200,000 yuan in total, including the family members.

After the Da family was cultivated into a "paradise", Mi Zhu sent all his elders and relatives who needed to be cared for and were not resistant to bitterness and cold to the Da family.

Then each person gave a manor that Mi Zhu invested in, and was accompanied by ten hectares of newly opened deserts, orchards and vineyards. He also sent servants from the Mi family to "protect" and serve, and even the servants of the Mi family personally participated in farming as the security chief who led the village people and the village chief.

Taishici's old mother and Tian Yu's old mother are just a few examples, and there are many such people.

It was natural that everyone was very satisfied with Mi Zhu.

Li Su had to sigh after seeing it: Mi Zhu's administrative management ability is completely derived from his amazing management ability, and he is doing the prefect as the CEO.

After such a safe arrangement, Tian Yu was relieved to be appointed as the position of Changli County Magistrate, and worked for several years.

The reason why Tian Yu was discovered was because he was two or three years younger than Tian Chou - Tian Chou was in his early twenties, and Tian Yu was only nineteen years old. Before, Liu Bei could not reuse him further when he was there, and he was also limited by his age.

The position of Dashi County Magistrate, who protects all the families, is Mi Fang. Because the population of Dashi County is expanding wildly, according to the Han Dynasty's practice of "the establishment of chiefs below 5,000 households and orders above 5,000 households" in which Mi Fang can automatically upgrade to "order" if he works for one year.

Even after two years, when the Da clan grew into a county with more than 10,000 households, his order could be worth the "1,000 stones" rank, and he could be automatically promoted while lying down. Mi Zhu made such an effort to benefit his younger brother.

Although Li Su was a little instinctively worried when he heard this name, if you think about it carefully, Dashi was surrounded by the sea on three sides, Mi Zhu had absolute advantage in the navy, and Donglai was still in the hands of friendly forces.

There must be no enemy who travels across the ocean to land amphibiously and attacks the Da family. Mi Fang's mission is mainly to take good care of the family members of the ministers and families who stay there. Moreover, Mi Fang is not an outsider like Guan Yu this time, but his brother. Even if Mi Fang is heartless, he can't betray his brother and surrender when he encounters trouble.

Li Su felt relieved after thinking about this. After all, he couldn't persuade Mi Zhu to not trust his own brother and not use it more.

No one can get along with each other.

In the end, Li Su wanted to take away the list of civil servants to Hanzhong, including these people: Lu Su, Guan Ning, Jian Yong, Sun Qian, and Zhuge brothers, Guoyuan, Xi Lu, and Cheng Bing, who are now staying in Qingzhou and following the army. They are all recruited by the local government. They have never been to Liaodong from beginning to end, nor have they officially become officials in the court.

...

After arranging personnel, it was early November in a blink of an eye.

After observation during this period, the relationship between Xu Rong and Mi Zhu has also improved a lot.

The main reason was that Xu Rong discovered that Mi Zhu was really a rare good official in the Han Dynasty. At the beginning, Xu Rong felt that Mi Zhu also bought an official position and would definitely have to plunder the wealth and profit from the people.

But after half a month of open and secret investigation, he found that Mi Zhu was actually paying for money to become an official!

Civil officials are not greedy for money, and doing this will exceed 90% of their colleagues. As for talent, they are not that important.

It is a great blessing for the people to only need a prefect who is willing to do things and does not plunder it.

Of course, Mi Zhu is not really not interested in money. He just followed Li Su's advice and took a "long-term" attitude, that is, the cost he invested. Don't think about rushing to the end of the pond within one or two years, but relaxing the investment cycle to three years, five years, and making a "five-year plan".

Nowadays, other civil officials in the Han Dynasty cannot make a five-year plan, because the official positions sold by Emperor Ling of Han are not valid for that long. The money you have to earn back in the year of buying official positions, otherwise you will lose money.

Li Su used his personal opinion to endorse the letter, and said in private that when he saw His Majesty in the capital, he had been in his health for a few months, and the official sales system would definitely end with the death of Emperor Ling. So we must do it well and look at the long-term. Whoever can continue to be the prefect in the future may be based on political achievements and the hearts of the people.

Mi Zhu, considering Li Su's long-standing prophecy, was willing to gamble with Li Su's vision, so he implemented long-termism.

He will definitely make money back from the people, but since he has a long-term plan, he will lend money moderately and earn interest.

This kind of loan to the hungry people in the military farming industry is of course usury according to the standards of later generations. But according to the standards of the Han Dynasty, it is definitely the rate of return, and there is no problem of usury.

Mi Zhu's idea is to "leave usury, make money after three years, and make money in five years", and do not greed or plunder anything else.

According to this idea, Liu Bei had previously won 150,000 people from Qingzhou to fight the Yellow Turban, and about 50,000 people could immigrate to the Liaodong Plain this year, leaving 30,000 in the Liaohe River Basin and 20,000 in the Dashi side.

The remaining 100,000 will be temporarily left in Donglai to reduce the loss of food transportation, and then move to the area to be newly settled in the twelfth lunar month. It is estimated that the Liaohe Plain will accommodate another 30,000 to 40,000 next year, and then move another 30,000 to the Datong River and Han River basins on the other side, and be handed over to the jurisdiction of Lelang County to clear the land south.

Other officials cannot learn this trick because they do not have huge capital to lend money like Mi Zhu, so only Mi Zhu can implement this kind of "benevolent government".

...

On the ninth day of November, after arranging all the civil affairs, Li Su found Mi Zhu privately and told him the last two precautions.

"Brother Zizhong, what I told you last time is to help Ziyi make military achievements, promote Sima from another department, and balance Xu Rong, so we must hurry up." Li Su knocked straight to the point.

After working with Xu Rong for more than half a month, Mi Zhu actually relaxed his vigilance and said carelessly: "I think Xu Duwei is also a fair person. I have successively won the hearts of the divine weapons, treasure armor, horses, gold and silk, and sent him a few beautiful maids. He has a good relationship with me recently."

Li Su shook his head: "This is not enough - I don't want you to guard against Xu Rong himself. If you just want Xu Rong not to have any other intentions, this is certainly enough, because I can see that he is a pure soldier and he has no ambitions to be a Mu Shou.

However, we must be wary of that after Your Majesty is in danger, the future ministers will suspect that the king will be treacherous and slandered. If the court's life is here, you may guarantee that Xu Rong will not listen to the court's new edict?"

"The Lord and Young Master doubt? You must be careful..." Mi Zhu pondered.

Although this topic is a bit rebellious, everyone knows it. The prince is only fourteen years old and he must have an assistant minister after he ascended the throne.

Of course, Mi Zhu didn't know that the Shao Emperor would work soon, but even if he took Shao Emperor as the imaginary emperor, he ascended the throne at the age of fifteen next year, he would not have to be entrusted with the title of twenty years later, so he would not have to entrust the orphan ministers to assist in the government.

It is still necessary to guarantee the five-year life span.

After Mi Zhu thought it through, he asked for instructions very simply: "But as the prefect of Liaodong, I am already in peace. Before, Duke Xuande crossed the border to attack the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, and was scolded by His Majesty. Where can I find military merits for Ziyi? You can't kill Fuyu innocently, the people of Gogurye, and the court will not take this as a merit."

Li Su: "Isn't Donglai Guan Cheng still there? When Brother Xuande destroyed Zhang Rao and Guan Hai, Guan Cheng stood by and watched, regardless of his slightest friendship. He relied on his own boat to escape back to the island, and he was unable to save Guan Hai from being destroyed. Now he has taken Guan Cheng's head, is he still afraid that Ziyi is not worthy of Sima of another department?"

Mi Zhu: "But that's the pirate of Donglai..."

Li Su: "We can say that he is a pirate of the Da clan. Shaman Island is located between Qingyou. Since ancient times, there has been no county or village, and the territory of the court has not been clearly defined. In previous years, the reason why he was a pirate of Donglai was that he was accustomed to plundering the good people of the coastal areas of Donglai.

But as long as we create an incident where "Youzhou grain transport ship was robbed by Guan Cheng halfway", we are afraid that there will be no excuses to send troops? In fact, you and I don't need these excuses, and this excuse is not for Xu Duwei."

Xu Rong was sent by the imperial court. Even if he did some Maine Incident, he would be performed for Xu Rong to see, and his own people didn't need it.

For Li Su, it is easier to make excuses about diplomatic blackmail than to eat.

When he was studying in his previous life, he analyzed the historical cases of CIA subverting all the rule of small Latin American countries clearly and wanted to take the exam.

Mi Zhu couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
