Chapter 65: Respective Thinking

Liu Bei was stunned. He had never succeeded in soliciting a talent or something. Those aristocratic family always disliked him. So far all the solicitations have been unsuccessful. Naturally, he was stunned when he heard the news.

"Liu Bei." Chen Xi said again, anyway, he can't sleep, why should he let others be distracted in front of him.

"Good, good." Liu Bei immediately reacted and was overjoyed. No matter what kind of character he is, as long as he is willing to join his group of literary minister at this time, no matter his ability, Liu Bei intends to greet him with respect. No matter what kind of person he is, Liu Bei will not forget to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

"Liu Bei, we should go soon. Both Mi Zhu and Lu Su are extremely important to us now. Lu Su has a very long-term vision and has his own opinions on government affairs. The Mi family is a rich family. It can compared with the Zhen family in wealth, who is known as the head of the five most powerful merchants in the world." Chen Xi specifically pointed out the life experience of these two people, which can be regarded as a preparation for Liu Bei.

When Liu Bei heard this, he calmed down. The original excitement slowly faded, and the original calm was restored. He turned to look at Chen Xi and smiled, "I thought it was difficult for me, Liu Bei, to be in the eyes of the world's wise men. Now, the Zhen family is gone, but the Mi family is here. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong did not come, but Lu Su enter my door."

At this moment Liu Bei was very energetic, originally because a series of talents could not be recruited and also because of the Zhen family in Hebei leaving since they weren't optimistic about his potential, he was gloomy. Now it is all gone, and the whole person seemed to be more confident and assertive.

"Those guys are not as good as me." Chen Xi said with a yawn, "If Liu Bei feels that someone couldn't be recruited, compare them with me if it is a literary minister, if it is a general compare them with general Zhao. If the literary ministers are better than me or the generals are better than Zhao Yun, remember to let me know."

When Chen Xi said this, Zhao Yun smiled confidently, and then said with a unique humility, "You shouldn't said this. Military adviser is a wise man in the world and there is hardly a match in this world."

Chen Xi rolled his eyes, "It seems like there are still several Lu Bu in this world. OK, the big guy knows it in his heart. Please remember this at any time, Liu Bei. After this year, anyone who is not optimistic about you will not be a top counselor in the world. At least the top counselor does not have the vision he needs."

"Thank you Chen Xi for your reminder." Liu Bei said solemnly, "Let's go out and wait. If Chen Xi is tired, he can go home and rest first. It's a problem to always be so tired. I will find some tonics for you to replenish your energy. There is no government affairs now. You should take a break."

"No, Lu Su will definitely discuss some things with me when he comes all this way. I will be there in a moment." Chen Xi shook his head and said. According to the habits of the top literary officials of this era, the first thing they do is to offer advice, and his presence can also cover up Liu Bei. After all, he did a lot of things and Liu Bei is not very clear.

Sitting in the carriage, Mi Zhu looked at the bustling city outside the window and was shocked. All the way there was a scene of enthusiastic work, maybe not as bustling as Xuzhou City, but Taishan Fenggao right now has far surpassed his imagination. According to his memory, he remembered that when he came a year ago, this place was just raged by the Taishan bandits. The dilapidated place is not as good as the ordinary county town, but now it has surpassed most of the county city.

Looking at the three-meters-wide moat, and the wall was as high as ten-meters with more than eight-meters in thickness, Mi Zhu knew exactly how much effort it would take. Just one wall was enough for the bandits to extinguish their own desires, and now it was built in a short time of three months, with a manpower of about 100,000 people. Mi Zhu understood it after a little calculation.

Passing through the city gate, the wide bluestone road gave Mi Zhu a feeling of being in Xuzhou City. No, it was cleaner and tidy than Xuzhou City. Mi Zhu felt that he couldn't bear it. The scenes that he caught sight of and the intelligence of other places about water conservancy projects, land reclamation, construction of city walls, disaster relief, and gathering of refugees let him draw the conclusion that it cost more than 100 million yuan.

If Chen Xi knew Mi Zhu's thoughts, he would chuckle. One hundred million yuan is not enough. For 500,000 refugee, two hundred yuan per person is not enough to barely eat for three months. So if you pay the money, the five big businessmen will have to hurt their vitality. The refugees will create profits on their own if they get pay for work or something...

Mi Zhu was a little convulsed when he thought of this. I heard that the Zhen family had run away. If he thinks about spending money like this, his Mi family may not be able to support it. This Taishan County official is simply good at spending. Although in terms of effect it is good, but if every county did this, the country wouldn't be able to sustain it at all.

Lu Su came along the way and learned a lot. Unlike Mi Zhu, Lu Su has a long-term vision. Naturally, he will not count the Zhen family, who has returned to Jizhou, as the people under Liu Bei. Therefore, in his opinion, the entire Taishan County is very worthwhile. Research, whether it is the soil embryo house that is still being built, the river channel that is continuously dug, or the hot work site is very valuable for research. It is busy but not chaotic, this is Lu Su's intuitive feeling.

After observing all the way, Lu Su final conclusion was very weird. It seems that the entire Taishan restoration did not use money. Although the food is real, there is almost no money that is actually used, and it is relative to sprinkling grain to get the current situation. The effect of the restoration is relatively shocking. The most important thing is that this is done in three-month work. All the people under Taishan County actually recognized Liu Bei's rule. It can be said that the people's heart is in Liu Bei's hand.

This had shock Lu Su. Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. Although Lu Su does not fully approve of this statement, many things will become very convenient when the hearts of the people are in hand. They were able to shatter the people's doubts about the government in such a short period of time, re-establish the people's confidence in the government, and even spontaneously have people support Liu Bei's rule, Lu Su can only say that Chen Xi, who is in charge of internal affairs under Liu Bei's rule, is really a wise man!

Naturally with this kind of wise man assistance, Lu Su also had more confidence in Liu Bei. Originally, he was not optimistic about Liu Bei, but after Liu Bei's messenger to recruit him was seen by his grandmother, Lu Su's grandmother stopped Lu Su from rejecting. The messenger said to Lu Su: "Go out to meet the world and not always stayed at home with my old lady. Reading a book and farming is not a heroic style of doing things. Since the Han family clan Liu Bei is recruiting, why not go out to see and think about it."

Lu Su, who could not be stubborn with his grandmother, had to take his servant with Liu Bei's messenger on the road. He was a little sad when he left, but Lu Su quickly let go of his sadness after leaving the city. This was the first time he left home. The grandmother was alone, and the general trend of the world was revealed to him for the first time. This year Lu Su only was eighteen years old.

Originally, Lu Su didn't have the idea of ​​joining Liu Bei. He came to Taishan just to give his grandmother an explanation, but the situation along the way made him interested, and he could naturally see the harvest of Taishan at this time. How much savings there will be, and what these savings will mean in a place close to Qingzhou.

[Let's take a look at how Liu Bei is. If it's a guy with ambition and talent like Yuan Shu, then just hang around for a few days. If it's a benevolent generation, I don't mind if I, Lu Su, take him as my lord.] Looking at the busy scene outside the carriage window, Lu Su slowly made up his mind, but the restlessness in his heart did not affect his expression. He was still elegant and calm.
