Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 65 Respectful Thoughts
……

Liu Bei was stunned. He had never succeeded in recruiting Daxian or anything. Those aristocratic families were always not optimistic about him. So far, all the recruiting had not been successful. Naturally, he was stunned when he heard the news.

"Empress Xuande." Chen Xi said again, anyway, he couldn't sleep anymore, why let others get distracted in front of him.

"Okay, okay." Liu Bei reacted and was immediately overjoyed. No matter what kind of person comes, as long as he is willing to join his civil servant at this time, no matter what his ability is, Liu Bei intends to greet him with a big gift, and he will not eat hot or spicy food in the future. Will forget to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

"Prince Xuande, go, both Mi Zizhong and Lu Zijing are extremely important to us now. Lu Zijing has a very long-term vision, and he has his own opinions on government affairs and strategies. It is a family of great wealth, and if you compare the Zhen family, you can see that it is rich and noble, and is the head of the family of the five largest merchants in the world." Chen Xi specifically pointed out the life experience of these two, which can be regarded as a preparation for Liu Bei.

When Liu Bei heard this, he calmed down, the original excitement slowly faded, and he regained his original calm, turned his head to look at Chen Xi and said with a smile, "I thought it was difficult for me Liu Xuande to get into the eyes of the world's geniuses, but I don't want to be too inferior. Yes, the Zhen family is gone, the Mi family is not here, he Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong can't come, Lu Zijing also entered my gate."

At this moment, Liu Bei was in high spirits. The depression caused by the departure of the Zhen family in Hebei because he was not optimistic about his potential was completely gone, and the whole person looked more confident and assertive.

"Those guys are not as good as me." Chen Xi said with a yawn, "If Duke Xuande thinks someone is not recruited, compare me, and if you are a military general, compare with General Zhao. If the civil servant is better than me, and the military general is better than Zilong, remember notice me."

As soon as Chen Xi's words came out, Zhao Yun first smiled confidently, and then said with a unique humility, "I can't be a military advisor, but a military advisor is a genius in the world, and it is hard to compete in this world."

Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, "It's like there are still several Lu Bu in this world, that's alright, the big guy knows what he has in mind, please remember Xuande at any time, after this year, anyone who is not optimistic about Xuande They won't be the top advisors in the world, at least he doesn't have the vision that a top advisor needs."

"Thank you Zichuan for reminding me." Liu Bei gave a solemn salute, "Let's go out and wait for a while. If Zichuan is tired, he can go home and rest first. It's okay to be so tired all the time. I'll find some tonics for you to make up. There is no government affairs, you also have a rest."

"No, Lu Zijing will definitely discuss some things with me when he comes all the way. I'll take a moment." Chen Xi shook his head and said, according to the habits of the top civil servants in this era, the first thing to do is to offer advice. And if he was there, he could cover up for Liu Bei. After all, he did a lot of things, and Liu Bei didn't know it very well.

Sitting in the carriage, Mi Zhu looked at the bustling scene outside the window and was shocked. He came here and there was a scene of work in full swing. Maybe it couldn't compare to the wealthy Xuzhou City, but now Fenggao on Mount Tai has far surpassed that. With his imagination, he remembered that when he came a year ago, it had just been ravaged by Taishan thieves. It was not as dilapidated as an ordinary county town, but now it has surpassed most of the county towns.

Looking at the three-zhang-wide moat, the ten-zhang-high, and the eight-zhang-thick city wall, Mi Zhu knew very well how much effort it would take. Just such a city wall was enough for the bandits to quench their desires. It was built in three months, with a manpower of about [-], Mi Zhu understood after a little calculation.

Going through the city gate, the wide bluestone road made Mi Zhu feel like he came to Xuzhou City. No, it was cleaner and tidy than Xuzhou City. According to the information obtained, the water conservancy project, land reclamation, city wall construction, disaster relief, and gathering the displaced people cost more than [-] million yuan.

If Chen Xi knew Mi Zhu's thoughts, he would probably just curl his lips. 50 million yuan is not enough to distribute, and [-] yuan per person for [-] refugees is probably not enough to barely eat for three months, so if the money is distributed, the five big businessmen will be hurt. Vitality, they will create their own profits through work-for-relief...

Thinking of this, Mi Zhu was a little twitchy. He heard that the Zhen family ran away. If he thought about spending so much money, his Mi family probably couldn't hold it back. This Taishan County Chancellor is simply a good spender, although it is absolutely amazing in terms of effect. Good, but if every county did this, it wouldn't last.

Lu Su came all the way and learned a lot of things. Unlike Mi Zhu, Lu Su had a long-term vision, and naturally he would not count the Zhen family who had returned to Jizhou under Liu Bei’s name. Therefore, in his opinion, the entire Taishan County was very worthwhile. Research, whether it's the earthen house still under construction, the canal that is being dug continuously, or the hot work place, is very valuable for research, busy but not chaotic, this is Lu Su's intuitive feeling.

After Lu Su's observation all the way, the final conclusion is very strange. It seems that the entire Taishan restoration did not use any money. Although the food is real, there is almost no money that was actually spilled. The effect of the restoration is relatively shocking. The most important thing is that in these short three months of work, all the people under the control of Taishan County actually recognized Liu Bei's rule.

This had to shock Lu Su. Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world. Although Lu Su does not fully agree with this statement, many things will become very convenient when the hearts of the people are in hand. It can shatter the original people's doubts about the government in such a short period of time, and Re-establishing the people's confidence in the government's recognition, and even spontaneously supporting Liu Bei's rule, Lu Su can only say one thing to Chen Xi, who was in charge of internal affairs under Liu Bei's rule, he is a genius!

Naturally, with such a talented assistant, Lu Su also has more confidence in Liu Bei. He was not optimistic about Liu Bei at first, but after Liu Bei's messenger who recruited him was seen by his grandmother, Lu Su's grandmother stopped Lu Su's dismissal. The messenger said to Lu Su: "Go out to meet the world, and I have been at home with the old woman, reading books, and farming is not a hero's way of doing things. Since the Han clan relative Liu Gong has recruited, why not go to see it and then think about it."

Lu Su, who was not as stubborn as his grandmother, had to take his servants on the road with Liu Bei's messenger. He was a little sad when he left, but after leaving the East City, Lu Su quickly let go of his sadness. This was the first time he left him. Grandma acted alone, and for the first time the context of the general trend of the world was shown in front of him. This year, Lu Su.

Originally, Lu Su did not have the idea of ​​defecting to Liu Bei. He came to Mount Tai only to give an explanation to his grandmother. However, the situation that he came all the way intrigued him, and he could naturally see the harvest of Mount Tai in his eyes. How much savings would there be, and what would these savings mean in a place close to Qingzhou.

[Let's take a look at Liu Xuande. If it is Yuan Shu who is as ambitious and talented as he is, then he can stay for a few days for a while. If he is really a benevolent person, I, Lu Zijing, don't mind sharing the worries for the king. 】Lu Su looked at the busy scene outside the car window and slowly made up his mind, but the restlessness in his heart did not affect his expression, he was still elegant and calm.
