Seeing Zhou Jue again, Jiang Wan immediately remembered him. However, Zhou Jue's clothes were clean and tidy at the moment, much more respectable compared to the ragged appearance before.
"I've seen the commander!"
Zhou Jue greeted him respectfully, and Jiang Wan nodded casually: "Sit down, you don't need to hold on to these false etiquettes, just say what you want!"
Zhou Jue was slightly stunned. He didn't feel that the other party's attitude was a bit casual, but that the other party was a bit too gentle. Especially since the other party had thousands of soldiers like tigers and wolves, even if they were arrogant and domineering, he would not be surprised.
But if there is no airs at all, well, although it is a bit casual, it is also very friendly.
"Nowadays, the students are working in the salt field outside the city. I see that Yan'an Mansion has become very orderly under the protection of the adults. The students are also honored. The students are not talented. I would like to give you a few words of advice!"
"Say!" Jiang Wan nodded: "I'm all ears!"
"Your Excellency gathers the refugees and gives them a place to live and settle down. This is the kindness of the court and your merit!" Zhou Jue carefully considered his words: "But now, the refugees in Yan'an Prefecture are not just from Yan'an Prefecture.
After hearing the news, some people came to the state capital. Among these refugees, in addition to ordinary people, there were also many people who were as knowledgeable as students and had read the books of sages. However, whether it was adults or prefects and yamen, they had always treated these
Scholars are treated the same as other refugees, and whether it is physical strength or other aspects, these scholars are not as good as others..."
He paused and looked at Jiang Wan's face. Seeing that he didn't look displeased, he continued: "The student feels that these scholars should be placed in a place more suitable for them by the government instead of
Let them dig soil and boil salt like other refugees..."
Jiang Wan pondered, but did not speak. Zhou Jue felt a little nervous.
"The students heard that the adults were also scholars and were famous. Naturally, they would understand the difficulties of scholars, so I took the liberty to..."
"No, no, no, don't be afraid, you made a good point!"
Jiang Wan waved her hand: "I have ignored this matter. Moreover, I have been busy with work recently and have not been able to take care of it. I am very happy that you can remind me of this matter in time!"
Seeing that his suggestion was approved by Jiang Wan, the stone hanging in Zhou Jue's heart finally fell to the ground.
"I'm not surprised that there are scholars among the refugees!" Jiang Wan nodded: "Using them the same as those who rely on labor to make a living is indeed a bit wasteful and a bit unfair to them. In your opinion, what should the court do about these people?
Where’s the placement?”
"If possible, gather these scholars together and give them a job in the government according to their fame!"
Zhou Jue said what he wanted in his heart: "The famine is temporary and will pass sooner or later. These scholars have had the experience of doing things in the government. Even if they become officials in the future, they will have experience and have a deep understanding of the court and themselves."
It’s a huge benefit!”
"It makes sense!"
Jiang Wan nodded: "I don't care whether these scholars do anything or not. It won't be a problem for the Yan'an government to support them. However, as you said, arrange them in the government to do what they can as civil servants.
I think it’s still overkill!”
"What do you mean, sir?" Zhou Jue asked tentatively.
"Educating the people is the most important thing for a talented scholar!" Jiang Wan nodded: "Especially now, refugees from different places come to Yan'an every day. We must educate these refugees to know the grace of the court, educate them with etiquette, justice, integrity, and educate them.
Who keeps them alive is the most important thing!"
Jiang Wan said slowly: "The refugees know that they can survive because of Yan'an Prefecture and Nanhaiwei. Naturally, they will protect the interests of Yan'an Prefecture and Nanhaiwei at all times. In turn, the government and the army will also protect the interests of Yan'an Prefecture and Nanhaiwei."
Only by following them and supporting each other can we get through the hard times, instead of like many of them think, if there is something to eat here to survive, just stay here. If there is nothing to eat here, then go to another place where there is something to eat.
No matter where you are, even if you are rebellious and follow the thieves, it doesn’t matter!”
"this……"
"Of course, this is just one of their responsibilities!" Jiang Wan slowly came up with his own thoughts in his mind: "We, the Nanhai Guards, are soldiers of the imperial court. Compared with the government, there are naturally not many people who can read and write.
These scholars can serve as clerks in the army, or they can teach in schools run by the army to teach our army's lieutenant generals how to read and write!"
"Ah!" Zhou Jue couldn't help but exclaimed. What he said was getting further and further away from what he imagined. He couldn't guarantee whether the scholars among the refugees would be willing to serve in the military or teach, but
, Zhou Jue never wanted to work as a clerk in the army.
Being an official or a civil servant is the future for a scholar. What's the point of being a big-headed soldier?
"Sir, scholars will have to take scientific examinations in the future!" He said reluctantly: "If you serve in the military..."
"Who said you can't take the scientific examination if you serve in the army? I just hired these scholars to be my staff!" Jiang Wan smiled slyly: "Is it too much for my dignified commander to hire a few staff?
, or is it that I arranged for my staff to do some military things, which violated the laws of the court, and made them miss the chance to take the scientific examination?"
"Staff?" Zhou Jue's heart moved. If this is the case, there is nothing unacceptable.
Of course, it's nonsense to educate the people and repay kindness. Who has the spare time to do this kind of thing now? However, if you can be the commander's staff in the army, it will not only be honorable, but also,
You can even become a counselor to military aircraft, which is a way out!
"Of course, Zhou Juren, you are good, I admire you very much!" Jiang Wan said with a smile: "I wonder if you will be wronged, Zhou Juren, by becoming an adviser to me?"
"I don't dare, I don't dare!" Zhou Jue was stunned, and a hint of joy suddenly appeared on his face: "I don't dare to feel wronged, the student is extremely honored!"
"In this case, I will have to work hard for Mr. Zhou in the future!" Jiang Wan was not polite and directly addressed him as "Mr." "Since this matter was brought up by Mr., then it will naturally fall on Mr.
, Sir, you can look for people to take over the matters at the salt farm. Then, Sir, you will spend your energy looking for scholars among the refugees. I am not picky about food. Whether it is a scholar, a scholar, or even a child, I want it. But, that is
There is one requirement, that is, no matter who wants to enter my Nanhaiwei door, the origin of wealth must be clear, and it will not work if you just make up an identity through some writing!"
"This, the students will definitely check for the adults!" Zhou Jue suddenly felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, and he was a little bit happy in his heart: "The students can appreciate the adults' painstaking efforts!"
