This person obviously didn't have the courage to go anywhere, Xu You waited for ten breaths, but he didn't dare to stand up and reply.

"If you have an opinion, just mention it, and if you can't figure it out, say it! I may be different from the Lord you used to follow, and I never sin for my words. It was a great disrespect on that day, but what was the result, was he punished? No! ”

Xu You stood in front of everyone casually, his handsome side face shining in the sun, and the corners of his lips showed a smile, and said: "If it is usual, before the order is issued, everyone is allowed to give their opinions, and I will try to discuss it with you." But after the order is issued, it must be carried out unconditionally, and those who have meritorious service will be rewarded, and those who have done wrong will be punished, and there will be no mercy! ”

Although Cang is a barbarian, he has been bathed in the Han wind for a long time, and has gradually learned to figure out the mind of the superior, so he held it in a timely manner and said in a deep voice: "What if there is an emergency? ”

"In case of emergency, the order is forbidden! No matter how much you don't understand the order, you must execute it first, and then report it down to the next level after the fact. Xu You Zhengse said: "If the suggestion is beneficial, it will be rewarded, and if it is your own opinion, you will not be guilty!" ”

No one has ever heard of or seen such a way of leading troops. Throughout the ages, when soldiers fight, they can't survive to eat, beat drums to advance, and retreat, as for marching and arranging, attacking cities and conquering cities, it is the business of generals and staff, who has ever seen the general discuss with the soldiers when he issues military orders?

Everyone's eyes were blank, Xu You didn't expect them to understand the deep meaning in an instant, the thinking pattern of thousands of years needed to be corrected slowly.

He's not in a hurry, he's stuck in Qiantang anyway, he has nowhere to go, and there's time!

Cang turned his head, pointed at a person, and shouted: "Qi Huating! ”

"No!"

One stepped forward and stepped out of the queue.

Xu You admitted that when he heard the name Liu Huating, he smiled without any fluctuation in his heart. Huating cranes can be heard, swan song for the ages, who doesn't know? It's just that the history of Chu has changed, and there is no more land machine, and there is no Huating crane, which is a pity. When he saw people, he was startled, Qi Huating sounded very poetic, but his appearance was described in only one word: ugly!

I don't know if it's because of the many beautiful men in Chu State, since Xu You crossed, he has rarely met people who are too ugly, and he has experienced Hongchen, never judges people by their appearance, let alone comments on external beauty and ugliness, Qi Huating is the first.

Because it's so ugly!

The two eyes are small and narrow, but they are tightly pressed together, sunken deep in the sockets. The eyebrows are short and light, if there is none, like two stunted soybeans, chiseled into the eyebrows. The cheeks are still round, but they suddenly converge at the cheekbones, and the chin curls up in a subtle arc, almost connected to the tip of the nose, at first glance, it looks like a ghost.

The light was not good that night, and in the past two days, Xu You handed over the selection to He Wei and Zuo Yan to be responsible, and he didn't pay much attention to it.

"You just spoke?"

"Hui Langjun, it's me!"

"But what's the dissatisfaction with papermaking?"

Qi Huating knelt down, his forehead fell to the ground, trembling, and said, "The villain doesn't dare!" It's just that I've never been used to holding knives and sticks, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to do the light work of papermaking......"

Xu You said softly: "Get up and speak!" Don't be afraid, I've said it, but if you have an opinion, it's not a sin to say it beforehand! ”

Qi Huating stood up, lowered his head, and didn't dare to look directly at Xu You. Xu You saw that he was really nervous, and said with a smile: "Are you from Lou County?" Why the name? ”

"The villain is from Lou County, and his family lives on the edge of Huating Valley, so my parents gave me a cheap name."

Lou County is also a part of Kunshan in later generations, Huating is located in Lou County, because of Lu Ji's dying lament, the name of Huating has been famous for thousands of years.

"Can you really hear the crane chirping in Huating Valley?"

The second monk of Qihua Pavilion was puzzled and said, "I haven't heard of it...... However, there are many long-lived deer in the valley, and the deer can be heard. ”

The immortal deer is the sika deer, which was also known as the spotted dragon in ancient times. Huating has many deer since ancient times, known as ten deer and nine turns, and it is not uncommon to hear the sound of yoyo deer.

It's just that there are no cranes in Huating, and I always feel that something is missing!

"Seeing that you speak clearly and reasonably, how can you sell yourself as a slave?"

Qi Huating's face showed shame, and said: "Because of his ugly appearance when he was young, he was despised by the clan, and he almost couldn't live in the clan when his relatives were involved. My father had no choice but to send me to the scholars in Lou County as a slave. Later, I learned some superficial martial arts with a master, and by chance I was valued by the Zhan family and bought it to make a part. ”

If he was sold by his family because he was ugly, what else could Xu You say, he comforted him: "The man is not good-looking, Yan Zi is less than six feet long, he looks like the country, and he is famous among the princes; Wang Cang was sleepy and frail, but he became the crown of Jian'an's seven sons. It can be known that appearance does not matter to men, you practice martial arts hard, follow me to do things with all your heart, sooner or later, let you return to the clan and return to your hometown! ”

Qi Huating bit his lower lip, almost bleeding, his eyes were full of tears, he knelt down, and said, "Dare not die for Lang Jun!" ”

"Get up! And you, all remember, as Xu's subordinates, you must have a proud backbone, and you are not allowed to kneel when you are idle. ”

"No!"

Everyone knelt down in unison to agree, Xu You laughed, knowing that the new rules could not be erected at one time, and said: "Huating, tell me, are you unwilling to do papermaking work?" ”

After the conversation just now, Qi Huating was no longer so afraid of Xu You, and said boldly: "Yu Langjun, we people have always been only responsible for housekeeping in the Zhan family, and rarely do farm work and chores. I heard that papermaking requires skilled papermakers, and some people often make mistakes after several years, so we are afraid that we will not do it well, and if we make a mistake, we will be punished by Lang Jun. ”

"That's all, no laziness?"

"Yes, I am usually lazy, and if I work hard like a tenant, I will resist in my heart, even if I do it reluctantly, I will not do my best!"

Qi Huating has completely let himself go, and he has no secret from Xu You, there is one to say and two to say. There are people who are good friends with him in the song, and their eyes are full of worry, lest he speak carelessly, anger Xu You, and cause death.

Xu's Shichiro is not a weak scholar who can only talk about it!

"Well, that's good!" Xu You clapped his hands, his eyes swept over the crowd, and said with a smile: "What I want is to be outspoken!" What Qi Huating said, is it also what you are talking about? ”

Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at Xu You. Xu You gradually restrained his smile and said, "I know that you actually look down on the tenants who work in your hearts, and you always feel that you are superior to holding farm tools when you have a knife in your hand. However, you should think about it, why would Zhan Hong rather give me these parts of you than those tenants that you despise? ”

"The reason is very simple, tenants can farm, they can raise birds, they can weave, and they can't live in the world. As for you, when you encounter the war between the north and the south, you have few people and weak strength, and you can't be of great use, at most you can deal with some petty thieves and thieves. But now Jiangdong is under great governance, even if there are thieves, they don't dare to enter the city easily. It is advisable to live within your means, eliminate redundant food and floating expenses, this is the way to govern the family. And you belong to the redundant floating fee, so you were eliminated by Zhan Hong! ”

It is advisable to live within your means, and eliminate redundant food and floating expenses, which are the words in the "History of the Ming Dynasty", although they are not good, but they are straightforward, but they make some people fall into contemplation. Xu You said again: "I am different from Zhan Hong, although your force is useless to me for the time being, I will not sweep you out of the house, but find a way out for you again, so that you will not eat too much, spend floating expenses, and become a burden to the master's family." To put it mildly, everyone has a price, including me, if you want to win a place, you must first let others see whether you are worth this price! ”

Valence, that is, value, mortals in the world, appearance, talent, family background and room for rise determine the valence of each person. Depending on the price, the class will be different.

"I see!" Qi Huating clasped his hands tightly, revealing a resolute look, and said: "Don't talk about papermaking, even if you sweep the yard, it must not become Lang Jun's redundant food and floating expenses." ”

The others also figured it out, the hand holding the knife and the hand holding the farm tools, who is more expensive, to see who is more useful to the master, at the moment, they are not as good as the tenants who farm, if they want to eat in Jingyuan, they must start from making paper.

"I'm willing to do it."

The voices of the crowd were firm and powerful, and Xu You smiled: "Of course, the identity of your ministry will not change, there is money for papermaking, and there is also money for the part, if you do a good job, there will be another reward!" ”

Playing a big stick and giving a sweet date is the only skill for His Majesty. As soon as he heard that there was a double share of money, even the person who had just answered was not so willing, and immediately smiled, eager to throw away the knife and run to pound the pulp.

Seeing that everyone's spirit was completely mobilized, and there was no such great resistance as before, Xu You asked Cang to divide the fifteen people into three teams, and each team had a captain. The three captains were one of the first eight to stand in silence that night, and they realized the importance of obeying orders before others, and naturally they were rewarded.

Next, arrange night patrols and defenses, Xu You did not interfere, and handed over to Cang to be responsible, with the intention of seeing his ability. Back in the room, Shan Zong came out of nowhere, put his hands in his sleeves, and said: "Qilang is good-tempered, and he also explained to them bitterly, if he dared to question the order of the thief in Minghai, he would have been thrown into the sea to feed the fish!" ”

Xu You smiled, how could what he wanted to do be compared to the Ming pirates, but he didn't bother to talk nonsense with the Mountain Sect, and said, "There is no tail along the way, right?" ”

"Nope! In smooth water! ”

Shan Zong left the city a moment later than Xu You, kept a distance of several miles from the team, and said, "Even those two yellow-eared dogs were lazy to stay in the city and didn't follow us. ”

"The people of the Crouching Tiger Division know that I came to a paper mill, and they are no longer interested. Making money in business is not to their liking! Xu You quipped and said, "Are you ready?" ”

Shan Zong took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "I have to show my face, by the way, how do you see my current appearance?" ”

"It's getting less eye-catching!" Xu You praised from the bottom of his heart and said: "The technique of walking on the frost is really amazing, and you have made a vicious thief look like an ordinary person." ”

Shan Zong's appearance has changed greatly from before, the two sword eyebrows with sideburns have turned into a curved moon, which suddenly softened the contours of the whole face countless times, and the corners of the eyes may be smeared with dark shadows, the narrow eyes are no longer so unruly, but they show a little warmth, the long hair that is scattered on weekdays is no longer bohemian and chic, the rules are tied into a bun, wearing the most popular assault hat, and the rivers and lakes on the body are deliberately removed, and they are timid, no different from ordinary tribal slaves.

Unless you know him well, or if you meet an old friend of the Ming pirate in person, it is difficult to tell the true face of the Mountain Sect based on the dictation and portraits of others alone.

At this moment, Cang came in to report, Xu You lightly pointed to the Mountain Sect, and said, "This is a shock, my servant, you will be more close in the future." ”

Suddenly, there was one more person, and the cangdi was not different, but he was Xu You's henchman who had been in the paper shop before, and he hugged his fist to the mountain sect and said: "I've seen Lang Jun!" ”

The mountain sect returned the salute with his fists and smiled at the sky, expressing kindness.

After reporting the arrangements for the night patrol, he walked out of the door, thinking about following Xu You to do things, although it was a little hard and tiring, but for some reason, he felt sincerely relieved and comfortable.

In the dead of night, the stream was murmuring in the distance, and the paper mill gradually fell silent.

This is his new home, and it is also a place to settle down, and there can be no slack!
