"The Youzhou War has broken out. During the Youzhou War, Li Mu, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, appeared. If you say that Li Mu has nothing to do with the Youzhou War, I really don't believe it."

Chu Tian was watching the fire on the other side, and he noticed that another emperor-level commander was born. There were a lot of princes participating in the Battle of Mobei, and the recruitment orders for the Battle of Mobei were of high quality, so the probability of king-level and above heroes appearing was relatively high.

big.

Chutian obtained two emperor-level heroes with three recruitment orders, which is evident.

The timing of Li Mu's appearance on the rankings is coincidental.

"Liu Bei's army suffered heavy losses under Hu Ma's offensive, but Liu Bei also had a group of famous generals and did not completely collapse. Yuan Shao also blocked Mingguan. At least 100,000 troops have been killed so far. It is inferred that Li Mu may be under Hu Ma's command. Yuan Shao's persistence tactics

It may have something to do with the soon-to-be-unified Goryeo Kingdom.”

Xue Yue informed about the information about Youzhou.

Chutian's attention shifted to the Kingdom of Koryo. Facing the aggressive northern lord Cui Zaishan, the southern lords of Koryo were defeated and retreated further south. If Koryo was unified, the backyard of Mingguan would be on fire.

"My lord, a man claimed to have seen the recruitment order and recommended himself. He claimed that the states and counties have been fighting for years, the people are in poverty, and food is getting increasingly scarce. If he is used to manage agriculture, he can feed more civilians."

Chu Tianzheng summoned several legions to assemble in Qingzhou, but he still stayed in the Lord's Mansion to handle internal affairs, and arranged for prefects and county magistrates from various counties. The recruitment order had an effect, and talents would come to join him from time to time.

Generally, the talents who come to seek refuge are not qualified to meet Chu Tian. Only those who are recognized by the officials as having real talents and knowledge are qualified to come to the Lord's Mansion and meet Chu Tian in person.

"The people are suffering..."

This is true. "Lord" is a world where various civilizations compete for hegemony. If you want to truly calm down the troubled times, you need to use force to stop the war. It is difficult to achieve true peace by relying on benevolence, righteousness and morality.

For example, after Chutian defeated Xuzhou, the burden on the civilians of Xuzhou was relatively small. Except for the still high tax rate and constant military service, the civilians of Xuzhou at least would not be displaced due to the war.

Compared with previous years, when all counties in Xuzhou were at war, things are much better now.

Only by unifying the Eastern Han Dynasty can the war within the Eastern Han Dynasty be reduced.

"Let him come in to see me. If he is not an agricultural talent, I will throw him into the Yi River to feed the fish."

Chu Tian heard that the other party had the ability to manage agriculture, so he recommended himself and was immediately interested. Of course, it is also possible that the other party thinks highly of himself.

As a lord, Chu Tian could see the attributes of talents, whether they were talented or mediocre, he could tell at a glance.

Soon a middle-aged man was brought in by officials from the Lord's Mansion.

This middle-aged man bowed to Chu Tian. His attitude was not as arrogant as Chu Tian imagined. On the contrary, he was a humble gentleman. He probably made such big talk just to attract Chu Tian's attention.

"Don't know your name sir?"

Chu Tian saw that the other party should have real talent and learning, so he was humble.

Chu Tian asked himself, he still respects talents very much. As long as there is value for the other party and high officials and generous salaries, it will not be a problem.

The arriving middle-aged man replied: "I'm Jia Sixie (xié)."

Jia Sixie?

Familiar name...

Chu Tian was sure that he had heard or seen this name somewhere. It was definitely a historical figure.

"I wonder what sir is good at?"

"Agronomy, gardening, afforestation, sericulture, animal husbandry, veterinary medicine, breeding, brewing, cooking, reserves, famine control..."

That middle-aged man has a lot of treasures and is good at many fields.

This guy is a farmer?!

There are hundreds of schools of thought, but farmers form a unique group. Their ancestors told the story of Shen Nong, who encouraged them to cultivate mulberry trees to provide enough food and clothing.

During the Qin and Han Dynasties, peasant families were one of the nine schools. The nine schools included Confucianism, Taoism, Yin-Yang School, Legalism, Farmers, Famous Schools, Mohists, Strategists, and Miscellaneous Schools.

The status of peasant families began to decline after Confucianism was exclusive. However, peasant families played an important role in various periods. After all, ancient society was based on agriculture and the end of Shang Dynasty. They were real doers, different from the talkative and corrupt Confucianism.

Jia Sixie presented a book: "This book is called "Essential Techniques for Elevating the People," and it contains all of what I have learned throughout my life."

"Essential Techniques for Elevating the People"!

Chu Tian finally remembered this agriculturist from the Northern Wei Dynasty.

The reason why Chu Tian had forgotten about Jia Sixie was because the reputation of his work "Essentials of Qi Min" was far greater than that of the author. Everyone in the world knew about "Essentials of Qi Min", but not Jia Sixie.

Chu Tian accepted the "Essential Art of Qi Min" with some excitement.

"Essential Art of Qi Min" is also a treasure.

During the first epic battle "Yellow Turban Rebellion", Chutian obtained a book about agriculture - the Dizi Volume of "Taiping Yashu".

The value of "Essentials of Qi Min" is undoubtedly much higher than the incomplete "Essentials of Taiping".

[Name]: Qi Min Yao Shu

[Grade]: Imperial treasure

[Effect 1]: Promote the art of improving the people, and increase the output or efficiency of the following fields by 5%: planting, animal husbandry, fishery, wine making, sauce brewing, vinegar, cheese, storage, glue cooking, ink making...

[Effect 2]: Implementing the Art of Elevating the People in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, the above effect will be an additional +5%. It takes time to implement the Art of Elevating the People.

[Description]: The first of the five ancient agricultural books, with 92 chapters in 10 volumes, it systematically summarizes the agricultural experience in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River before the sixth century.

Chu Tian saw the amazing results of "Essential Art for Elevating the People" and was even more excited to obtain "Essential Art for Elevating the People".

The people of Qi are the people of the land of Qi, and the territory currently occupied by Chutian is probably the scope of the state of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, so it is most suitable for "Qi Min Yao Shu".

"Ding! The sss achievement task 'Five Agricultural Books' is opened. Collect five agricultural books, "The Book of Pansheng", "Essentials of Qi Min", "Chen Fu's Nong Shu", "Wang Zhen's Nong Shu", and "The Complete Book of Agricultural Affairs"

", you can get special achievements!"

The collection achievement of the five major agricultural books is actually an SSS-level achievement task!

However, a copy of "Essentials for Elevating the People" is an imperial-level treasure, and it is normal to collect five agricultural books and be considered an SSS-level achievement.

In the era of cold weapons, agriculture was extremely important. In Chu Tian's view, the value of the five agricultural books was much higher than that of the Four Books and Five Classics. The five agricultural books brought about a substantial increase in agricultural output, thereby increasing the population and improving living standards.

.What's the use of talking about benevolence, justice and morality if you don't even have enough food?

The value of the five major agricultural books may be greater than that of a specific talent.

When the talent dies, the effects of the characteristics will disappear, but as long as the five agricultural books are kept, the effects will always exist.

"I wonder if you, sir, would like to stay and serve me?"

Chu Tian not only wanted to keep the "Essential Art of Qi Min", but also wanted to keep Jia Sixie to work for him.

As a representative figure of a peasant family, Jia Sixie is a historical hero in his own right and has an additional bonus for agriculture.

During the troubled times of the Eastern Han Dynasty, wars were fought every year. Fighting did not mean that Chutian was not farming. In fact, the front lines were fighting, while the rear was farming and developing various counties.

No matter how many agricultural talents come, Chutian will still accept them.

Jia Sixie saw that Chu Tian wanted to reuse him, so he said: "I am willing to use my talents to manage the agriculture of a county and accumulate grain and grass."

"Thank you sir."

Chutian has gained the allegiance of Jia Sixie, and he can already see the attribute panel and abilities of this representative farmer.

【Name】: Jia Sixie

[Talent]: King-level civil servant

[Identity]: Prefect of Gaoyang County in the Northern Wei Dynasty

[Commander]: 44 [Force]: 40 [Intelligence]: 78 [Politics]: 90 [Charm]: 80

[Characteristic 1]: Agriculturist (SS level trait, territorial farming, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline, fishery output +5%, with other farm heroes, the effect decreases when the same traits are superimposed)

[Characteristic 2]: Agricultural Prefect (S-level characteristic, when serving as a prefect, the agricultural, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline, and fishery output of the county will be increased by an additional 5%, and the damage caused by natural disasters will be reduced)

Although Jia Sixie was a king-level civil servant, as one of the representatives of the peasant family, his characteristics were very practical.

"You will temporarily serve as the Tian Cao of the Langya Kingdom. After you become familiar with the agriculture of the Langya Kingdom, you can then serve as the Prime Minister of the Langya Kingdom."

It is obvious that Jia Sixie is suitable to be the prefect.

Langya Kingdom is currently the most prosperous county in the Chutian territory. Letting Jia Sixie serve as the prefect can bring more bonuses to Langya Kingdom and make Langya Kingdom's agriculture more prosperous.

Jia Sixie has not yet made any achievements, so he can start from Tian Cao of Langya Kingdom and then be promoted to the Prime Minister of Langya Kingdom.

After Jia Sixie took refuge in Chutian, he went to the Yamen of Langya Kingdom to report.

The Yamen of Langya Kingdom and the Lord's Mansion have been separated. The Lord's Mansion now manages nearly twenty counties instead of one county in Langya Kingdom.

"It seems that the recruitment order is quite effective."

After Jia Sixie went down, Chu Tian looked through "Essential Art of Qi Min". He could regard this book as a family heirloom in the future. The Recruitment Order has brought many talents to Chu Tian, ​​and more of them are hidden among the people and are proficient in agriculture.

Professionals in medical and other fields.

Chutian placed treasures such as "Essentials of Qi Min" and "Essentials of Taiping" in the warehouse of the lord's mansion, and people worshiped them and went to check from time to time. The existence of the treasures increased food production, and Chutian could feed more people.

Population and troops.

Originally, a state could support 300,000 low-level soldiers. After continuous development, it might be able to support a million soldiers. Of course, if it adopts the route of elite soldiers, a state will not be able to support a million soldiers in the later stages.

Currently, Chutian has the strength of nearly three states, and its main army is only 300,000, because it adopts the route of elite soldiers.

Xia City is about to be upgraded to a large city.
