In the back hall, after a long period of silence, Prime Minister Gongsun Qi once again slowly put down the copy of Qin Dong's report that he had read countless times.

"Your Majesty, in the past, the Qin government had many repeated administrative orders, which made Qin Dongli and his concubines extremely suspicious of them."

"And this suspicion accompanied our Wei State's seizure of the land of Qindong from the Qin State, and was naturally transferred to our Wei State officials."

"However, after Gongsun Yang's move to Liyang to establish trust, even if the credibility of the Wei government cannot be fully restored, it will not be as bad as before."

"Gongsun Yang's move is undoubtedly beneficial to our country of Wei, and Gongsun Martingale has undoubtedly made great contributions to our country of Wei."

After slowly expressing the analysis in his mind to Wei Feng in front of him, Gongsun Qi immediately stood aside from his seat.

He bowed to Wei Feng very solemnly, and heard Gongsun Qi from the opposite side requesting loudly: "Please also reward Gongsun Yang generously, to show that Wei State cherishes talents and is determined to reward meritorious services."

"In addition, I would also like to ask your Majesty to allocate a sum of money to make up for the reward Gongsun Yang gave to the Lishu of Yueyang in advance for the Wei Kingdom."

As Gongsun Qi's words slowly fell in his ears, Wei Feng's eyes showed contemplation and he nodded in agreement.

Even if Gongsun Qi had no need to ask for a generous reward, Wei Feng would do it. He was not a stingy monarch who cared about money and land.

What's more, Gongsun Yang is a great talent that he is very optimistic about, and it is very likely that he will take over the position of Wei from Gongsun Qi in the future.

As for the matter of him allocating a sum of money to compensate Gongsun Yang, Wei Feng quickly understood what Gongsun Qi meant after his eyes met Gongsun Qi's meaningful eyes.

After some calculations in his mind, Wei Feng quickly stood up from his seat and said, "Xiang Guo, I have given my order to give Gongsun Yang, the magistrate of Yueyang County, a hundred gold."

"Twenty-five gold years are to make up for his previous expenses, and the other seventy-five gold years are to reward his achievements."

"In addition, Xiang Guo also asked someone to tell Gongsun Yang, so that he can implement any ideas he has with confidence and boldness. I and Wei Guo will stand behind him."

After Gongsun Qi listened to Wei Feng's order, some solemnity immediately appeared in his eyes.

He could already feel how much Wei Feng, as the Marquis of Wei, valued the newly appointed magistrate of Yueyang County.

Immediately, Gongsun Qi bowed forward and said, "I obey your order."

After this episode from Qin Dong was properly arranged, Wei Feng and Gongsun Qi continued to talk about what they had not finished before.

"Xiangguo, as you just said, scholars from various countries who have read the "Order for Seeking Talents" have arrived in Anyi one after another and checked into the "Seeking Talents Pavilion" that I specially ordered to build."

"I just don't know if they are satisfied with Wei's hospitality. What do they think of me and Wei?"

Facing the worry revealed in Wei Feng's words, a smile appeared on Gongsun Qi's face.

"In the past, the former monarch Wenhou showed courtesy to the virtuous and corporal officials, which attracted talents from all over the world to come to our country, Wei;"

"Now that your Majesty intends to imitate the style of Marquis Wen and seek talents from all over the world with humble gifts and generous coins, why not go to the Talent Seeking Hall in person to meet the scholars from all over the world?"

"That's exactly what I mean."

Facing Gongsun Qi's proposal at this moment, Wei Feng's face immediately showed a hint of excitement, and he walked quickly towards the center of the apse.

"Come here, let me change my clothes."

"Follow orders."

…

In a newly built annex in Anyi City, the capital of Wei State, at this moment, there were many scholars from all over the world passing through.

After a few cases in the hall, a famous scholar was either chatting with his companions, or having a heated debate with others...

With all the things in front of us, it is like a gathering of talented people and a gathering of humanities.

Just as these scholars were discussing, a voice rang out from the center of the hall, and almost everyone's attention was immediately attracted.

"Everyone, Xu Yan of Qi State has met you all."

Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction where the voice came from, and immediately a tall and handsome young scholar appeared in everyone's sight.

After bowing slightly and saluting everyone around him, facing the eyes that were looking at him from all directions, the Qi scholar who called himself Xu Yan stood up straight and spoke with great calmness.

"The current Marquis of Wei is one of the rare wise monarchs in the world."

"It took only five years after he took the throne. Not only did he put an end to the internal troubles in the Wei state, but he also defeated powerful enemies from outside one after another."

"Han Han and Zhao, who once took advantage of the chaos in Wei to join forces to attack Wei, had to choose to agree to the conditions proposed by the Marquis of Wei and reconcile with Wei under the fierce offensive of Wei's northern and southern armies."

"After twenty years of dormancy, the Qin State was always preparing to regain its lost territory. Although it had a small victory in the confrontation with the Wei State, it was defeated in the end and had to cede the land of Qindong in exchange for the Wei State.

Peace."

"As for my mother country Qi..."

Because the words involved his home country, Xu Yan's tone was obviously a little embarrassed.

"Qi State saw Wei and Qin competing in Hexi and thought that the defenses of Wei Dong were empty, so it sent a large army to attack Wei Dong. In the end, the seven countries jointly attacked and lost the city and territory."

After listing Wei Guo's achievements over the years in a few simple words, Xu Yan's face immediately showed a solemn expression.

"Everyone, the Wei State in Anlu has established its position as the hegemon in the world. Even if its reputation is compared to that of the original overlord Qi Huan, Jin Wen can't make more concessions."

The last sentence of Xu Yan compares Wei Hou Wei Feng with Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin in the Spring and Autumn Period. It is obvious that he has placed several people in the same position.

The scholars from all over the world who were listening to these words silently below, although they did not all agree with Xu Yan's evaluation, they all admitted without exception that Wei was indeed the most powerful country in the world today.

This consensus was not achieved by the words of the people in the world, but was achieved by Wei's victory in war after war.

Standing in the middle of the hall, Xu Yan let out a breath of turbid air from his chest, and his eyes passed over the faces of the scholars sitting or standing around him one by one.

Seeing that no one stood up to oppose him, Xu Yan immediately regained his composure and continued: "What is even more commendable is that the current Wei Marquis has the same style of treating the virtuous corporal as Wen Marquis did back then."

"An order to seek talent was issued to the world, and a talent seeking hall was built in a short period of time, which is enough to show the sincerity of the current Wei Marquis in seeking talents."

"I think that most of you are the same as me and were moved by the sincerity of the Marquis of Wei in seeking talents, so you chose to leave your home country and come to Anyi, the capital of Wei State?"

After Xu Yan's question was raised, the surrounding area fell into silence for a while, and then waves of sound suddenly rose up one after another.

"That's right. I'm here because of this Order to Seek Talent."

"Since the Marquis of Wei is interested in recruiting talented people, I also want to put my talents to use in the Wei Kingdom."

"What my brother said is absolutely true, and I also have this ambition."
