Chapter 154 Try to keep your talents

"Father's ......"

Cao Cao nodded slightly, waved his hand to Cao Ang again before slowly opening his eyes, and after thinking for a moment, he asked Cao Ang: "Lu Yihao didn't know martial arts, but at that time, he broke into the Tian Mansion alone, and countless people were killed by him...... What's going on? ”

Cao Ang explained about Lu Ren's "Violent Qi Technique", Cao Cao gasped after hearing it, and his eyes narrowed again: "In this way, doesn't he have extraordinary martial arts?" has such outstanding martial arts, but why do you want to hide it? Could it be that he has other intentions? ”

Cao Ang shook his head again and again: "No, no, no." In fact, when he was a child, he also suspected that he was deliberately concealing, so when he was recuperating from his injuries, he secretly tried many times and found that there was no trace of martial arts on his body at all. After that, the child carefully thought about the fight with him in the Tianfu, and felt that he was completely slashing and slashing with a brave spirit, no different from a madman, and to put it mildly, there was nothing to be desired except for great strength. According to the child's careful observation, he should have been right. ”

Cao Cao muttered: "It is indeed difficult for a person to deal with when he goes crazy, but it is too terrifying for him to go crazy. But these things will not be mentioned of him any more. Ang'er, since you are friends with Lu Yihao, what do you think of him? ”

Cao Ang thought for a moment and replied, "Brother Lu...... Although there is a bit of narrow-mindedness in some things, and sometimes even a bit of scoundrel, it is just the state of ordinary people. If he has no strengths, he may only be an ordinary market man and a pawn of a peddler. However, his heart is pure and good-hearted, and he attaches great importance to affection and righteousness, and he can indeed be a good friend who trusts and works together. ”

Cao Cao nodded and said: "Ang'er, although this Lu Yihao is a bit of a villain, but if he can get the joint recommendation of your uncle Yuanrang and Xun Wenruo, he must not be a general, but must have his own merits." And if you want to be friends with them, it's up to you how you handle them. If you are in your forties and you are in the prime of life, it will be of great benefit to you to interact with these talented people. But don't be too close and lose sight of one or the other. ”

"Remember, child!"

Cao Cao nodded to Cao Ang with satisfaction. In fact, in Cao Ang's body, Cao Cao can see a little bit of his young shadow, and deliberately wants to train Cao Ang to be his successor. Now seeing that Cao Ang can properly handle the relationship with his subordinates at a young age, and there is already a bit of the style of a superior, can Cao Cao feel gratified?

When the business was almost over, Cao Cao chatted with Cao Ang about family life. After talking for a while, the guards came to report that Guo Jia asked to see, Cao Cao naturally invited Guo Jia to come over to talk, and after casually saluting each other, Cao Cao remembered the topic just now, and asked Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, you have a good relationship with Lu Yihao, so in Fengxiao's opinion, how is Yihao?" ”

Guo Jialuo shook his smile helplessly: "He? If you want me to talk about him, to put it nicely, he often has the intention of escaping the world in his chest, and to put it badly, he is a lazy person. Many times he doesn't kick his feet, doesn't force him with something, and schemes that he doesn't even want to move. In the past, he had taken the initiative to apply for a job, but I felt that he was not doing it for the sake of career or fame. It seems to me that he just wants to do something he wants to do, and when he is done, he plans to leave and continue to be his idle cloud and wild crane in the world. ”

Cao Cao frowned slightly when he heard this, and Cao Ang picked up thoughtfully: "The child has also heard Wan'er mention that Brother Lu seems to only want to be an official for a few years, and after a few years, he will take Wan'er to resign and return to his hometown to live in seclusion." As for the few years that he has been an official, Brother Lu seems to want to let the people know the intensive farming method of farming, so that the people can collect more grain and rice, and no longer live hungry and cold.

Later, the child also talked to Brother Lu about some of these things...... According to his original words, it is said that the cultivation methods of the people today are all "rough" farming. And if you teach the people how to cultivate intensively, they will be able to harvest a lot of grain and rice by the time of the autumn harvest. What else is the method of intercropping, rotation farming, and poultry captivity...... Although the child is reckless, he has also read a lot of books, but he has never heard of or seen the things that Brother Lu said.

"The father knows that the child is tired and lazy and has never ploughed, so he does not know about farming, but Puyang does it according to the law that Brother Lu said, and the child has also specially inquired about the old farmers in Shitun during the autumn harvest, and they all say that this year's Puyang Shitun is cultivated according to the method taught by Brother Lu, although it is not a year of good weather but it is better than a good year. According to the child's observation, I always feel that the talent in Brother Lu's chest has not yet been fully revealed. ”

"Shhhh Cao Cao just didn't ask much, and the affairs of agriculture and mulberry have always been handed over to Xun Yu to deal with, but it does not mean that Cao Cao does not attach importance to farming. On the contrary, Cao Cao has suffered a lot in logistics grain and grass since he raised his troops, so Cao Cao is actually very sensitive to the supply of grain and grass.

The previous recommendation of Xun Yu and Xia Houdun had already made Cao Cao begin to pay attention to Lu Ren, and suddenly heard from his own son that Lu Ren was likely to increase the output of grain and grass in Lao Cao's territory by several percent, so what would happen if Lu Ren was really allowed to do his best? It's hard to imagine.

After pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back for a long time, he squinted his eyes and asked Cao Ang, "Ang'er, have you deliberately favored and exaggerated Lu Yihao because of your friendship with him?" Is what you just said exaggerated? ”

Cao Ang hurriedly shook his head: "Why did my father say this!?" Acting virtuous and capable, for the sake of the father's great cause, how can a child only care about his personal feelings and destroy his father's business? ”

Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang for a long time, and his eyes narrowed more and more. With his understanding of Cao Ang as a father, Cao Ang would indeed not lie for personal feelings in this kind of matter, but what Cao Ang said just now inevitably made Cao Cao, whose agricultural knowledge is still at the present point, too difficult to accept.

He turned his head to look at Guo Jia again: "Fengxiao, when you first recommended Lu Yihao to Gu, it was actually mostly out of personal affection, right?" ”

Guo Jia immediately smiled and said: "Don't dare to deceive the lord, at the beginning, Jia recommended Yihao to become an official, and it was indeed Jia's personal feelings. It was only at that time that Jia felt that although Yihao seemed mediocre, he also had his outstanding knowledge in his chest, and if he was a senator of the army, it would also be beneficial to the lord. What Yihao did step by step after the job search trial was really unexpected. And Rong Zai is also brave to admit here that he can't see through him as a person. ”

Cao Cao nodded: "Feng Xiaozhi has a private relationship in his chest, and he doesn't care about it; Yuan let the heart be straightforward, easy to be bullied, and its recommendation can also be ignored. When it comes to Wen Ruo's recommendation, you can't ignore it......"

In fact, Cao Cao was a little hesitant at the bottom of his heart at the moment. How so? After all, Lu Ren's first image of Cao Cao was really too bad, don't forget what kind of bird Lu Ren looked like when he first saw Cao Cao.

At this moment, Cao Cao, in line with the mentality of employing people without suspicion and suspicion, adopted Xun Yu's recommendation to appoint Lu Ren as Xuchangling. To be honest, Cao Cao would do this largely based on his trust in Xun Yu's vision of people, but what kind of official is Xu Changling? If the relocation of the capital is successful, Xuchang Lingke will be equivalent to the current mayor of the capital city! If you don't have very good talents, it's still a trivial matter if this official can't be appointed, and it's not a joke that Cao Cao's military and political center is in a mess. Therefore, Cao Cao only asked Lu Ren to build the city wall and palace, and the military and political affairs that Xu Duling was really responsible for were not in charge of Lu Ren.

After hesitating for a long time, the person also paced back and forth a few more times, and then Cao Cao brushed his beard and muttered: "Does he only want to be a master for a few years?" Well, I want to see what kind of feats this Lu Yihao can make in these few years! ”

Guo Jia asked, "What does the lord mean ......?"

Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "Wen Ruo repeatedly reminded Yu Gu when he raised the army to Qin Wang, saying that the Holy Lord promised to move the capital to Yu Xu's edict, and as soon as he announced Lu Yihao's edict, he would be able to build the city palace room, and he also needed to be able to use the name of Xuchang Decree to enrich the treasury before the spring ploughing season of the next year.

"It's just that the Gyeonggi City Order can be given casually? Lu Yihao has no reputation, no family background, and he is very young and afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public. Therefore, Lone is the first to express Lu Yihao to try to abide by the Xuchang order, and to lead the Xuchang city construction and agricultural mulberry affairs, and then look at the situation. If he is only talented and cannot be qualified for the position of Xuchangling, he will use his talents alone, and he will not be difficult for him if he wants to go alone in the future; But if he is really as Wen Ruoxin said, he has the talent of a rich country, and he should be reused. ”

After saying these words, Cao Cao's eyes narrowed again. In fact, there are a few words that Cao Cao did not say:

"Wen Ruo has always been extremely accurate, I should have used it for Lu Renxin. It's just that this person can't even see through Fengxiao, so I don't want to test him well. If he is really a man of rich talents, but he only wants to be a man for a few years, then I will keep him no matter what. If he is really this kind of talent, he must not fall into the hands of other candidates! ”

————————————————————

Yingchuan, if taken literally, is the two banks of the Yingshui River that connects Luoyang and Xuchang today. And if you have to recognize Yingchuan as a certain area, it is probably near today's Yuzhou City.

In terms of geographical location in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Luoyang was the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Xuchang was an important commercial town with developed transportation in the center of Henan. Especially since the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with the rise of the Yingchuan Xun clan in the Han court, the development of Yingchuan has been largely driven.

The so-called development mainly comes from the establishment of Yingchuan Academy. Yingchuan Academy is actually an unofficial educational institution jointly established by the Xun family and other families of the Yingchuan family, but due to the geographical location of Yingchuan near the national capital in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the influence of the Xun family in the Han court that cannot be ignored, it naturally added a strong political flavor to the Yingchuan Academy. Entering Yingchuan Academy to study and show his talents, looking forward to being appreciated by the officials of the DPRK and Central Committee, and then soaring, has also become the driving force for those scholars who want to seek a career in Yingchuan.

At this moment, Lu Renzheng slowly rode his horse on the road of Yingchuan, and after looking around, he sighed lightly: "It's a pity that the current Yingchuan is not what it was before, I'm afraid it has to be described by the word dilapidated!" ”
