"...Well, that's a problem." Jiang Yang took a mouthful of rice, patted Li You on the shoulder and said, "But I believe you can do it well, right?"

"...." Li You was speechless.

Is it true that if you co-write, you will grab a sheep and squeeze it for dear life?

Are you still a human being? Think about yourself. While you are responsible for distributing fields and houses, you are also responsible for the government affairs of Xiami County. You have to coordinate the work from top to bottom. You also have to arrange village officials and the Propaganda Department. Now you are also responsible for the census.

Oh my god, why don't you cut me in half with one knife?

Jiang Yang coughed lightly and said: "You also know that Xiami County is busy with these things now. You will be relaxed when everything is on track. I will give you a holiday then. You can go wherever you want to play. It's public money."

to reimburse."

"Okay." Li You also knew that Jiang Yang rarely changed his mind on matters he decided on. Sooner or later, this matter would fall on him, so why bother with it anymore.

Helpless, Li You took two mouthfuls of food and prepared to select people to prepare for this census.

As soon as Li You left, Jiang Yang hadn't had a moment to relax when he heard a man running in shouting outside the door.

"Sir! Your Excellency, you are back. Look, this is the plan written by me." Wang Chen took three steps in succession and ran over quickly.

Holding a stack of paper in his hand, it was indeed a plan for a competition to select talents.

Jiang Yang looked through it.

I suddenly felt bored. Would people like to see this stuff?

Why are you not taking the four books and five classics in reverse or horseback riding and archery? What about other talents? Are you really not even looking at it?

Jiang Yang smiled and said, "You haven't eaten yet. Sit down and eat, and chat while you eat."

He could have just written a plan and asked him to execute it, but Jiang Yang decided to train him, so he couldn't be like this every time.

"What is our goal? To select talents from Xiami County, so what are talents?" Jiang Yang asked slowly.

Wang Chen frowned and thought for a long time, and then a few words came out of his mouth: "Extremely rich in learning? Excellent in both civil and military affairs? A perfect shot?"

Good guy, I guess these idioms have used up Wang Chen’s brain all his life.

"Yes, what is this? We call them scholars' talents and martial arts talents for short." Jiang Yang did not attack Wang Chen, but guided him to continue: "Look at the stools we made after a long time, buttocks hurt, someone invented

If we buy new ones that allow us to sit for long periods of time, is that considered a talent?"

"Uh... forget it." Wang Chen was stunned. Is this... okay? Isn't he just a craftsman who knows some crafts?

Jiang Yang, on the other hand, was not in a hurry and continued: "Look, our current bows and arrows can only shoot five hundred steps. There is a craftsman who has developed a bow that can shoot a thousand steps. Is this considered a talent?"

"Forget it!" Wang Chen said categorically this time. This thing is of great use, so how can it be ignored?

"Okay, then let me continue to ask you, some people are simply strong and have never learned archery. Are they considered martial talents?"

"Look at Ma Feng, he hasn't read many books, but the project in Xiami County was entrusted to him, and he managed the people without any problems. Does being well-organized count as a talent?"

"Look again, some people are very powerful. If you can find the problem after just reading the accounts, are they people who study?"

"Also, I don't know a lot of Chinese characters, but I know a few things when leading troops in battle. Is being able to defeat more with less, and being unexpected, considered a talent?"

"..." Wang Chen was silent for a while, then slowly raised his head and said: "Sir, what you said is considered a talent in other aspects."

"No! They are talents." Jiang Yang continued: "We must have a long-term vision and cannot think that scholars are talents."

"What are talents? They must have their own thinking."

"Look at those pedantic scholars and ask them what they think and say. They won't know anything about it. But if you ask them about the Four Books and Five Classics, they can talk to you for three days and three nights."

"Is this considered a talent? This is a pedantic idiot!" Jiang Yang said unceremoniously: "Students are the most difficult to screen because their textbooks are dead. They will read whatever books I ask them to read.

As for whether the content in the book is true or false, they will not consider it."

"Do you understand?" Jiang Yang asked after finishing speaking in one breath.

On the other hand, Wang Chen was holding his own plan, his eyes a little dazed, absorbing Jiang Yang's words carefully.

Jiang Yang was not in a hurry, and took the opportunity to eat a few more mouthfuls. He would be so hungry if he didn't eat even one meal~!

"Sir, I seem to understand that we need to screen out those who are thoughtful and not pedantic who only know how to read. Therefore, we cannot take the test on the Four Books and Five Classics."

"We also need other talents, and we need to set up corresponding competitions to attract them and select them."

"Yes! That's what I mean." Jiang Yang continued with a smile: "Can you set up a weightlifting competition for those who are strong? Let them challenge one another if they are strong."

"There are other things you should think about yourself."

"Sir, I have some ideas. I can even hold cooking competitions, tool-making competitions, and weapon-making competitions, but how should I screen the scholars? I can't ask you if you have any ideas, right?"

Jiang Yang rolled his eyes. It seemed that he still didn't understand. He might as well practice more. After all, this was his first time taking over.

"You can ask questions like this. You ask him how is the development of Xiami County now? What can be improved? Don't ask him what pages and lines of the Four Books and Five Classics are what the words mean. They know what a ghost means.

." Jiang Yang continued to express his thoughts.

Wang Chen, who had learned from his past mistakes, understood everything this time. He stood up and said, "Sir, I understand. I will go back and change the plan. I will make sure this event goes well!"

"Okay, okay, no problem." Jiang Yang laughed loudly.

This is a great event. Can it be regarded as a tradition? It should be held every year to select talents.

After taking just two steps, Wang Chenyou turned back.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yang asked.

"Two problems!" Wang Chenyan said concisely and comprehensively: "First, there is no such a big place in Xiami County that can accommodate everyone to watch the game and hold the game."

"The second thing is that..."

"Say it like a girl," Jiang Yang said directly.

"Well, can you ask Ma Feng, Liu Shun and others to give the people below some work that day? Otherwise, everyone will go and no one will come..."

Jiang Yang ignored this, but soon he figured it out, what should he do? Pay him money! Take a holiday!
