A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

"I'll trouble you for the affairs of the imperial court. We just came to see it. We don't have much meaning. We're going to visit the imperial brother in Ganlu Hall." Li Tai said and left with Li Zhi who had finished recording.

Chu Suiliang bid farewell to Li Zhi and Li Tai, and his face was very relieved. The struggle between the princes has always been fierce when the dynasty changes, but now Li Chengqian, Li Zhi, and Li Tai each have their own things to do and get along well. It is a very good thing to be able to transition smoothly. With a gratified smile on Chu Suiliang's face, he looked at the direction where the two brothers left and felt strange, "Didn't they say they were going to the Ganlu Palace? How can they go in the direction of going out of the palace?" gone."

Li Zhi and Li Tai walked all the way, discussing how to allocate manpower, you dig how many, I dig how many, arguing with each other, there is a feeling of sitting on the ground and dividing the spoils.

"Brother Huang, this time I don't want more than eight." Li Zhi said.

"A total of [-] new officials have performed very well after this trial." Li Tai said annoyedly, "Your imperial brother's academy is very short of masters, and your Maritime Trade Department is not too strong yet, why don't you hand it over to the emperor first?" Brother, I will give it to you after I run out of it, Brother Huang."

"No!" Li Zhi said firmly, "Nowadays, the Department of Maritime Trade needs to employ people everywhere, and the situation in Maritime Trade is very serious. There are Kong Yingda, Yan Liben and Li Chunfeng."

It is indeed a good character for Kong Ru to give pears, but Li Zhi does not care about this character in the face of interests, and the Maritime Trade Department is indeed in need of manpower everywhere, someone who needs to contact Jiangnan, and needs someone to manage the transportation of Maritime Trade , Someone needs to be responsible for the relationship between the Maritime Trade Department and the major shopkeepers in Chang'an. In the future, after the construction of the Jiangnan Port, a branch will be established in the Jiangnan area.

"That's how it is." Li Tai also continued, "Whoever digs the most people from each of us will own the people, how about this?"

"Okay!" Li Zhi nodded.

Li Chengqian was looking at the candidates presented by Chu Suiliang. This time, there were a total of fifteen new officials who performed exceptionally well. Other officials were not yet used to the life in the court. Their performance was either mediocre or full of flaws.

"Your Majesty." Chu Suiliang said, "This time the imperial examination recruits officials very hard. Many officials entered the six departments and nine temples for the first time. It is inevitable that they were not used to it at first. According to the Ministry of Officials, it has gradually stabilized. It will be better in the future."

Li Chengqian nodded slightly, "Are the fifteen officials ready for promotion?"

"The Ministry of Officials is already preparing." Chu Suiliang spoke, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, as long as the Ministry of Officials draws up the position for this promotion, it will naturally report to His Majesty."

"I know." Li Chengqian nodded slightly, "After the promotion is completed, you let these fifteen new officials come to the Ganlu Hall, and I will personally commend them. Now that the imperial examinations are newly opened, I want everyone to know that my way of accepting talents Heart."

"Yes!" Chu Suiliang nodded slightly.

On the second day, Li Zhi got up early and had breakfast with Gu Qing.

Gu Qing looked at the new issue of the academy's magazine and said, "Does His Royal Highness Jin Wang have any ideas about the operation of the Maritime Trade Department?"

"Yes!" Li Zhi said while eating fried dough sticks, "As you said, I need to have my own team. This time after the imperial examination, many new officials who are able to handle affairs have appeared in the court. I plan to recruit them and give They're good enough."

"Yes!" Gu Qing nodded slightly.

"That!" After speaking, Li Zhi hesitated and said, "Gu Qing, I have no money!"

"I don't have money either." Gu Qing calmly flipped through a page of the magazine.

"You don't even have money?" Li Zhi said in surprise, "Everyone knows that you, Gu Qing, are as rich as an enemy!"

"As rich as the enemy, the country has no money." Gu Qing knew that Li Zhi wanted to spend money everywhere, and even used his own money to poach Li Chengqian's corner.

"Gu Qing, what do you mean, don't save yourself!" Li Zhi felt aggrieved.

Gu Qing spoke patiently, "I started the sea trade by myself. I have plenty of money. I can give part of the money from the old dukes in Chang'an to His Royal Highness King Jin, but I will hand over some of the money to the old dukes in the future." After it is in the hands of His Royal Highness King Jin, His Highness King Jin will also distribute the profits of the Maritime Trade Department to those old dukes."

After hearing this, Li Zhi was a little hesitant, thinking about Gu Qing's approach. Gu Qing's annual maritime trade profits are indeed distributed to those old state princes. If it is handed over to those old princes, there will be a lot of pressure in the operation in the future, and profits must be guaranteed, and money cannot be blindly thrown away.

"How is His Royal Highness King Jin thinking?" Gu Qing put down the magazine and said.

"Yes!" Li Zhi nodded, "I agree! Gu Qing, how much can you give me?"

"30 guan." Gu Qing said, "The members of the Dukes of Chang'an have a total of 60 guan. I will give you half of it. I also have members of the Li family in Zhaojun and Jiangnan merchants."

"Okay! I want 30 yuan! Give me the money." Li Zhichang has never taken so much money at his age, but in Gu Qing's warehouse, sometimes he can see the mountain of money and the sea of ​​money. A cart is pulled by a bullock cart.

Chapter 727 Li Zhi Digs People

"It's not good to take too much money at such a young age." Gu Qing continued, "I'll keep the money for His Royal Highness Jin Wang first. If His Highness Jin Wang wants to get it from me or Wu Mei anytime, every time His Highness Jin Wang takes Every penny must be registered in the account book, because the account book of Haimao must be made public and shown to those state officials in Chang'an."

"I'm going to spend money now, give me a thousand guan first!" Li Zhi said.

"Yes." Gu Qing greeted Fan Jian and said, "You take His Royal Highness Jin to the cashier to find his wife and pay His Royal Highness Jin a thousand silver coins."

"Yes." Fan Jian said with a smile, "His Royal Highness, follow the villain."

……

Li Zhi is carrying a burden of silver cakes worth a thousand guan, and he spends money everywhere to dig people. Now his biggest advantage is that he can give more money than the salary in the court, and his position in the Maritime Trade Department is high. Nor is it so bound by the court.

Unable to let the emperor succeed first, Li Zhi hurried to Dali Temple.

Di Renjie, who was busy at Dali Temple, saw Li Zhi coming and asked in confusion, "His Royal Highness, why are you here? Did something happen?"

"I'm fine, it's because my brother has something to do, that's not right!" Li Zhi changed his words, "I have something to do, here I need your help with something."

"It's good for His Royal Highness to speak directly." Di Renjie also said, "Is there anything that we need help from Dali Temple?"

"That's right, I want you to help find out the background and background of these people, as well as their current situation." Li Zhi took out a roster.

Li Zhi and Di Renjie are very familiar with each other. They almost grew up together, and they are also very familiar with each other's personalities. The roster immediately showed clues, "Isn't this the roster of the new officials in the court? Why are you checking their details?"

"You just have to check, whether to help or not to help." Li Zhi said straightforwardly.

"Help! Of course I want to help." Di Renjie said, "Just give me half a day."

How efficient is Dali Temple now?Although Li Zhi was a little skeptical, he still said, "Okay, I'll come to pick it up in half a day, and I'll be busy with other things first."

Farewell to Li Zhi, Di Renjie looked at the roster and wondered what Li Zhi was going to do. Now that Li Zhi's Maritime Trade Department has just opened, it has been going smoothly. There are a lot of things in the department, and Li Zhi still has the time to check the details of these people. In fact, the monk already has all the details of these new officials.

After thinking about it for a while, Di Renjie understood that Li Zhi's Maritime Trade Department just opened with so many things, it must be short of manpower, especially capable people to deal with various things, this matter should find out the details of these people, and then dig out all the hot spots Let's go, this is exactly the same as what the teacher did back then

The friendship between Li Zhi and himself is not bad, the two are sometimes rivals and sometimes like friends.

This favor is nothing more than a little effort, so let's help, Di Renjie went to the pen studio after handling the affairs of Dali Temple.

Li Zhi also found a person he was looking for. This person is called Liu Wang. Although the imperial examination results are not very good, this person is now a trial minister of the Ministry of Rites. Steady and methodical.

At this moment, Liu is having lunch, and a naan cake and a bowl of mutton in a water basin are delicious.

Li Zhi sat down and watched him eat.

"Who are you?" Liu Wang looked at Li Zhi while eating.

Li Zhi didn't say anything, but said to the guy, "Bring me a pancake, and a bowl of mutton!"

"Okay." The man took a naan and scooped a bowl of warm mutton from the pot.

Li Zhi looked at him and said, "This brother is working in the Ministry of Rites now?"

"What? You are also a newly promoted official?" The other party looked at Li Zhi. Nowadays, the competition between the court and China is very fierce, and many people are working hard to climb up.

"It is said that this brother is now the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, and he is highly regarded by the Minister of Rites. I think you are sure to take this position. After three months, you will be a veritable Zuo Shilang." Li Zhi cupped his hands and said, "I'm here to congratulate first."

The other party took a sip of the soup in the mutton basin, "What's the matter with you?"
