Chapter 294: Waves

(I wish all book friends a happy National Day, and I wish the motherland prosperity and better and better!) )

"Once upon a time, there was a fisherman who always liked to go out to sea to fish when the wind and waves were dangerous, because he felt that when the wind and waves were strong, the fish liked to bounce, and the more cheerful the fish jumped, the easier it was to catch.

One day there was another big wave on the sea, so the fisherman sailed down into the sea, and he threw a big net on the surface of the sea, waiting for the fish to catch the net......"

In the courtyard of Cao's Mansion, Cao Wei squinted and sat on the chaise longue under the shade, and said leisurely: "Cao Bin, do you think the fisherman can catch fish this time?" ”

Cao Bin groaned, and after a while, his eyes showed a look of clarity, and said: "What my lord means, my subordinates understand, we are the fishermen, and those fish who like to jump are bandits, and now we have laid a big net, just wait for the fish to catch the net and catch them all."

Adults seem to be having fun these days, but in fact they are showing weakness to the enemy, so that those who have other thoughts think that adults are a naan bag who only knows how to covet pleasure, and when they take it lightly, they will naturally show their feet.

The adults are wise and martial, and their subordinates are obedient! ”

Cao Wei raised his eyes and glanced at him, and was about to pick up the teacup on the table next to him, Sun Gouzi, who was standing on the side, was quick-eyed, lifted the teapot and poured the tea inside, handed it to Cao Wei, and then stood aside respectfully.

Cao Wei took the tea and nodded slightly with satisfaction: "Dog, what do you think this official sentence means?" ”

Sun Gouzi smiled and said: "My lord, my subordinates feel that there are two meanings in my lord's words, if my subordinates say it wrong, please don't blame my lord......"

Cao Wei glanced at him with interest and said, "But it's okay to say it, it's right, this official will give you a promotion, and I can't reward you with the position of deputy commander, it's wrong...... And it doesn't hurt! ”

Cao Bin, who was standing on the side, had a black line on his face, Cao Wei was the commander, and the mercenary guard was more special, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was Cao Wei's words in the guard. Originally, Cao Bin's subordinates couldn't control whether or not to give others a promotion, but if someone else was promoted to deputy commander, then his opinion would be great, because he is now the deputy commander of the mercenary guard, if someone takes his position, where will he go?

This joke is ...... Adults are so annoying! Cao Bin was secretly sympathetic in his heart, and only felt that his fart just now had slapped the horse's leg.

Sun Gouzi naturally knew that his adults were joking, but he became closer to Cao Wei in his heart, since he entered the mercenary guard, he was deeply used by Cao Wei, although he was only a school captain, but he was repeatedly entrusted with important tasks, with such an official, he will definitely have a bright future in the future.

"First, the adult means that we are the fish, the thief is the fisherman, the fisherman used to meet all small fish, but now he has to face a giant kun, the fisherman thinks he is fishing, but he doesn't know that it is he who is going to be arrested! Second......"

Sun Gouzi had a deeper smile on his face: "Second, my lord wants to eat fish, my subordinates will arrange it, and today's lunch will be taught to my lord's satisfaction!" ”

Cao Wei looked at the back of Sun Gouzi leaving, with a look of relief in his eyes, Shangguan only said a few words, and his subordinates could understand it, so that as Shangguan, he could feel comfortable physically and mentally. The more such subordinates, the better!

As for the middle-aged uncle with a long face standing next to him, in addition to having slightly better skin, a slightly more handsome appearance, a more powerful figure, and a more melancholy temperament...... The other is really one! Not! Be! Place! Cao Wei glanced at Cao Bin slightly, with a look of disgust.

Cao Bin obviously didn't expect his own adults to sum up so many advantages for himself, he hesitated for a moment, and said: "My lord, Sun Gouzi is still too young, his experience is insufficient, and his prestige is not enough, if he is to be reused, it will take some time...... The subordinates are not jealous of him, the dog has been working under his subordinates since he entered the barracks, and the subordinates also hope that he can have a bright future. ”

"Cao Bin, after all, you are still an old pedant, an old rotten wood...... Don't stare at the official, the official didn't mean to scold you, the official naturally has a reason for saying this......"

Cao Wei said: "The promotion of officialdom is nothing more than three points: prestige, backing, talent, and I am afraid that the same is true for promotion in the army.

You Cao Bin is nearly four years old, and there is no shortage of prestige and talent, why can't you rise for a long time, don't you have any points in your heart? ”

Cao Bin stroked his beard and frowned, and said astringently: "What the adults said is right, the subordinates have no backers, and they don't have the money to go up and down...... There are many officials and masters in the court, and there are even more children and nephews in their families, even if there is a vacant position, it will soon be occupied by those young masters.

Speaking of which, your subordinates are still stained with your light, before you came, your subordinates were just a small thousand households, and now they are already deputy commanders! ”

Cao Bin was grateful, Cao Wei got up and patted him on the shoulder and said, "This person, I'm not afraid of being a lowly official, I'm afraid that there is no hope and I can't see the future."

Therefore, we have no backer in the mercenary guard, no experience, as long as there is talent and merit, the official will dare to promote him and reuse him, this is the hope that the official gives to the brothers in the guard, our Ming Dynasty should also change, and the promotion in the army in the future should be counted by merit, at least in the guard under the jurisdiction of the official! ”

Cao Bin's eyes were slightly red, he knelt on one knee, and said loudly: "My subordinates are willing to die for the commander!" ”

"The subordinates are willing to die for the commander!"

Dozens of guards standing around also knelt down.

At the beginning, those who were willing to join the mercenary guards were those officers and soldiers who had no backing, and many of them had veterans who had been in the army for many years, but few of them got ahead, because even if they made merits, they could only be impersonated by the officials, and in the long run, they became muddy, because no one wanted to work for others all the time, and that kind of life did not run at all.

But now, Cao Wei has given them hope, a "meritorious" to make many men cry, from now on they will earn their lives for themselves and their children and grandchildren, even if they lose their lives, they are also willing.

An army must have its unique spiritual energy, and only with this spiritual energy can it be regarded as a real army, Cao Wei felt that the mercenary guards only had spiritual energy now.

"Okay, the next thing is when all the soldiers make meritorious contributions, whether you can shade your wives and seal your children depends on your own......"

Cao Wei glanced up at the sun and lowered his head to calculate the time...... Well, breakfast has been eaten for an hour, and it will be time for lunch in another hour and a half!

It is best to travel early in the morning, because it is good to travel a little longer during the day because of the slow travel at night, but because there are so many goods and a lot of things to prepare, it is not until the beginning of the day that all the merchant ships in the port are ready.

Pan Fu stood on the deck, looking towards the county town with a sad face, as if he was reluctant and resentful......

The steward of the fleet looked at the sky and wanted to step forward to urge his big shopkeeper, but he didn't dare, so he had to stand behind and paced in a hurry.

About a quarter of an hour later, Pan Fu gritted his teeth and waved his hand to the back, and the steward hurriedly shouted: "Let's go!" ”

Sail and anchor, the merchant ship is loaded with cargo and slowly departed. On the river, the wind and waves gradually rose, blowing all over the river, Pan Fu returned to the cabin as if resigned to his fate, and instructed the men to prepare wine and food, and prepare to get drunk before resting.

"I hope Brother Cao Xian is a little measured, don't play me to death...... Amitabha, I'm a vegetarian in the future...... "I want to talk about "Da Ming Qingshi" with more like-minded people, WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chats about life, and looks for confidants~
