Zhang Rang's status in the Han Dynasty was undoubtedly called "Zhang Rang's Duke" by Emperor Ling of Han Liu Hong, which means he regards him as his father. He can be said to be powerful. Especially Zhang Rang's reputation in buying officials made Zhang Rang crowded.

This guy didn't know how to restrain himself. The mansion was built according to the palace specifications, which was a crime of over-control for the nine clans. Of course, it was not only Zhang Rang who did this, but also the Yuan family, who claimed to be open and righteous, the three masters and the great clans of the great clans.

Anyway, Liu Hong has been fooled by Zhang Rang and others, so he didn't say that he wouldn't leave the palace. There were tall buildings in the palace that could overlook Luoyang, but he was fooled by the wise king and did not climb to the top. He really believed it.

As a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, you can imagine how powerful the concierge Zhang Rang was.

The best way to deal with such people is to have an identity and have no identity to get money. In order to get the concierge and Zhang Rang to pay attention, Zhang Hao directly took out the "magic weapon" lighter and asked the concierge to hand it over to Zhang Rang.

So that night, Zhang Rang sent someone to invite Zhang Hao to visit the mansion for a lecture.

In Zhang Rang's magnificent side hall, Zhang Hao met Zhang Rang, who is a legendary figure. No matter what kind of titles such as treacherous or sarcastic character, Zhang Rang is a bit feminine, but overall he is still handsome and has a good appearance. Although he is not young, he still looks like a handsome uncle.

Zhang Hao was speechless and even depressed like this. Why are you, a dead eunuch, so handsome? Zhang Hao was a little inferior.

Speaking of which, Zhang Hao has an ordinary appearance, a bit cold and harsh face, and he is barely considered a little handsome. But modern girls obviously prefer handsome men. I guess when Zhang Rang was younger, he would definitely make many girls scream. Of course, even now, the effect is probably not bad.

It's really unreasonable! Zhang Hao slandered in his heart, and then became happy again. After all, no matter how handsome he is, he is a castrator! No matter how good he is, he is useless!

Facing Zhang Hao, the powerful Zhang Rang was inevitably a little arrogant.

Zhang Hao, who confessed to returning from overseas, did not talk nonsense and directly displayed the "treasures" he brought. Glass mirrors, crystal crafts, music boxes and other objects made Zhang Rang, who was knowledgeable, look straight, and suddenly lost his airs and his attitude became very friendly.

Such a valuable gift, coupled with Zhang Hao's words, wanting to shine the ancestors and share the worries of the "Sage", naturally let Zhang Rang know why Zhang Hao asked for.

But just like Zhang Hao's previous concerns, Zhang Rang was a little embarrassed in this regard, but the treasure Zhang Hao took out made him not know how to push it off. Finally, he gritted his teeth and agreed to Zhang Hao. He would think of a solution and notify Zhang Hao when there was a result.

Zhang Hao waited for three days. During these three days, he was not idle. Luoyang is the imperial capital, and the information here is undoubtedly the most timely. In addition, Zhang Hao is very curious about how many celebrities there are in Luoyang City today, and he also needs to carefully supplement his plans and prepare backup plans.

For some reason, since he went to Zhang Rang to buy an official position, Zhang Hao has always felt something was wrong. At first, he thought he was worried about gains and losses, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was not. He always felt that he had ignored something important or did something wrong. This made him feel very awkward.

In this case, Zhang Rang sent someone to invite Zhang Hao to his mansion.

When he saw Zhang Rang, he noticed Zhang Rang's expression and Zhang Hao felt a little bad. It seemed that Zhang Rang's affairs were not done.

If even Zhang Rang can't handle it, I can only say that there is no hope for this matter.

The situation is not as bad as Zhang Hao imagined, but it is not very good either. According to Zhang Rang, it is impossible for Zhang Hao to reach a high position all at once. Even the two places where wars are now similar to Youzhou and Liangzhou.

The court would rather leave the official position empty than agree to people without any reputation to go there. You should know that there are tens of thousands of Tai students and even members of the Hongdu Gate School in Luoyang who are waiting to be appointed.

Zhang Rang said that he could help Zhang Hao arrange a position like a county magistrate first, and it was extremely difficult to even arrange a county magistrate, unless it was a remote and poor place.

Maybe he didn't want Zhang Hao to think that he wouldn't do anything after he received the money. Zhang Rang carefully explained the various rules of the officialdom in the late Eastern Han Dynasty to Zhang Hao, and finally emphasized that this start might be lower, but Zhang Rang could guarantee that Zhang Hao would be a high-ranking official within two years.

Listening to the unknown news that Zhang Rang told, Zhang Hao listened very seriously. At the same time, he was thinking about what to do. He suddenly woke up, and his faint disappointment had been wiped out. Zhang Hao suddenly understood why he had felt something was wrong these days.

From the beginning, Zhang Hao thought it was a bad idea. Into the organization and becoming an official may be a very suitable method for many time travelers. But it is different for Zhang Hao. He wanted to use the excuse of heaven and man descending to earth to revive the universe. Since he wanted to package himself as a god, it would be inappropriate to be an official.

Because being an official means identifying with this dynasty and losing the pattern and style of the celestial beings. Even if ordinary people may ignore or even care about this, those talent elites will probably mutter in their hearts.

Of course, this concern is indeed necessary, but it is not impossible to solve it. After all, there are more people in this world who know the times.

And you can also make excuses, such as to avoid the trouble of living beings, but the great man is unable to help, so he has no choice but to start a new business.

There are also problems with this excuse, such as why not show your specialty and ability to the emperor to help, but instead release it as an official?

Well, these issues are no longer necessary to consider now.

Regardless of whether it is suitable to be an official or not, the biggest problem now is that Zhang Hao cannot become a high-ranking official directly. If he does not have a territory, he can use the name of the Han Dynasty to recruit talents and accumulate power for himself. He does not want to be a small official and be driven by others.

Zhang Hao believed that the two years Zhang Rang said were credible, and this eunuch had a reputation in this regard. But Zhang Hao could no longer wait. Not to mention that there were many variables, Zhang Rang could not control everything. Moreover, the time was not suitable. Emperor Ling of Han was about to die next year, and Zhang Rang would be in trouble later. What's the use of his guarantee?

In addition, if you want to be promoted, you have to go around in various places, which is not conducive to building a foundation.

These thoughts flashed through Zhang Hao's mind quickly, and he made a decision.

First, I was grateful to Zhang Rang for his efforts, and then Zhang Hao stated that he just wanted to be a high-ranking official and felt that being a small county magistrate was too boring. So I gave up and prepared to do business.

In order to prevent Zhang Rang from thinking too much, Zhang Hao not only asked Zhang Rang to take care of his caravan in the future, but also made some special requests. He asked Zhang Rang to help clear the relationship so that he could buy some ships from major shipyards for business.

This was something Zhang Hao had thought of before, but at that time he thought of becoming an official and establishing a shipyard, but now he can only clear his relationships by himself in the early stage. After all, he is not a member of the system, and those official shipyards will not build ships for you. As for some private shipyards, it is estimated that they can only produce some small boats at most.

Whether it is an official or another choice, Zhang Hao wants to develop a navy, so there is no doubt about the convenience of shipping. Whether it is used in military or commercial terms, it has great results.

Zhang Rang naturally agreed to Zhang Hao's request, and even wrote a recommendation letter to Zhang Hao on the spot, and also printed his private seal.

Leaving Zhang Rang, Zhang Hao hurried back to the inn and talked about the situation with Huang Zhong.

Now that the idea of ​​becoming an official to accumulate power is shattered, the previous plan is invalid. The backup plan can only be used to improve it. The backup plan is to rebel. Of course, it is impossible to rebel directly. The most basic requirement for rebel is money, food and personnel, and it also requires time to accumulate strength.

Zhang Hao's backup plan is to accumulate money and grain through business, and to recruit refugees to train them into his own starting troops.

Huang Zhong had no objection to this aspect, and still said that as long as Zhang Hao decides, he will support him.

Zhang Hao was a little helpless about this. Huang Zhong's martial arts was not said that he had read military tactics in military affairs, but he was not considered mediocre. However, from a global perspective, he could not provide much help to Zhang Hao. But forget it, no one is perfect, let alone Zhang Hao himself is average.

After the two discussed for a while, Zhang Hao took out the map of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty printed from modern times, looking at the map while thinking about how to improve the backup plan. Not to mention the others, the most important thing now is to choose a base.

After staying up for a night, Zhang Hao finally adjusted the plan. Not to mention whether it is perfect enough, at least it is the best Zhang Hao can do.

He was still a little regretful. Without a legitimate official identity, Zhang Hao's idea of ​​recruiting future famous generals was ruined. He didn't know what intersection would have with these famous generals in the future?!
