Chapter 257: The Strange Woman Wang is Strange

More than a month has passed, and the time for selection is getting closer and closer, and the candidates who gathered in Chang'an have arrived one after another. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Lu Bu disguised himself as patrolling the eastern city, and countless scholars gathered on the streets, which were like Weishui and Jingshui. The brocade ribbons of the costumes gathered together, lupine scarves, laughing loudly together; The unclothed man held a dilapidated bamboo slip on both sides of the street, silently looking at the books in his hands, and secretly paid attention to the children of the family who were talking and laughing around him with his inferior eyes.

There are still too few people coming, even if all of them are recruited, there are not enough vacant positions in Chang'an and surrounding counties. The main thing Lu Bu wanted to recruit was scribes, and other craftsmen would at least not be so urgently needed by officials, and they could be cultivated slowly. Lu Bu walked towards the place where the scholars lived.

"Idlers are not allowed to enter." Lu Bu had just approached the courtyard of the wing room and was stopped by the female soldiers standing guard at the door.

"Isn't this the residence of the applicant? Why has it become a place where idlers are not allowed to enter? ”

"The auxiliary general is here, and he won't get out of the way." Zhou Cang shouted, and the roar alarmed many surrounding scholars, who gathered around to watch.

"Look, the one in coarse cloth clothes is the auxiliary general." Hearing the sound in the courtyard, many women rushed to look at Lu Bu, and saw that Lu Bu was born with a talent, and their eyes were full of peach hearts: "The general who protects the country is so handsome......"

"Zhou Cang must not be rude, it turns out that this is the residence of female gentlemen, and he will be reckless." Lu Bu bowed and apologized, ready to turn around and leave. The black pressure in the courtyard is full of flowery girls, and it is really inconvenient for Lu Bu to enter it to inspect, so as not to be made a fuss by unnecessary people, and I am afraid that no woman will dare to come to Chang'an to apply for a job in the future.

"Oops...... Get out of the way and let the auxiliary generals in. ”

Some of the women who applied for the job saw Lu Bu turn around and leave, and they came forward to lobby the female soldiers standing guard, they were very enthusiastic about welcoming Lu Bu into the other courtyard, of course, they wanted to know the assessment process from Lu Bu's mouth, so that they could make arrangements as soon as possible, hoping to stand out from thousands of people. Looking at the enthusiastic women, just like the one who greeted the guests, Lu Bu was embarrassed for a while, these are all beautiful women, roughly more than the men who came to apply, and the courtyard was squeezed out of a piece of black pressure, I don't know if it is the eldest lady of the Qiao family, I don't know if the adults in their family will come to Chang'an to find Lu Bu to ask for someone.

Three women in one play, thousands of young women gathered together, and the courage was big, Lu Bu couldn't bear the teasing and fled.

The scholars' courtyard was much quieter and quieter, and countless scholars were crowded together, shaking their heads and holding a roll of bamboo slips, reading aloud, but at first glance, they were people who read dead books, and from the roster, Lu Bu didn't find any talented people, better than nothing, at least literate.

Lu Bu turned around and entered the craftsman's courtyard, which was full of frolicking and personable scholars?

"Isn't this an artisan residence? Why are all scholars? What about artisans? Lu Bu was a little dumbfounded. There are a lot of craftsmen, and they know all kinds of crafts, Lu Meng mixed them all in a separate courtyard, it should be densely packed with people, right, why is it so quiet and quiet?

A scholar in a gorgeous costume squinted at Lu Bu, and saw that although Lu Bu had an extraordinary appearance and an elegant spirit, he was dressed in coarse cloth clothes and looked poor, and the other party asked if it was the residence of the craftsman, waved his hand, covered his nose and shouted at Lu Bu: "It turned out to be a craftsman who came to apply, roll." ”

"What's going on? Shouldn't this be an artisan residence? Lu Bu asked patiently with a dark face, these are the guests he recruited, and he can't be angry before the matter is clear.

A scholar with a feather fan in his hand waved his feather fan and said to Lu Bu in disgust: "You pariahs, you still want to live in such a good place? How many of us boys are crowded into the Chase Shop? This son has never suffered this crime, if it weren't for the family arrangement, labor and management would not have been able to apply for any temporary jobs in this cold and frozen ghost place. Your place is in a greenhouse in the back garden. ”

"On such a cold day, he still shakes his fan and pretends to be pretending, and he doesn't have any real talent at first glance, so my lord asked me to drive him out of Chang'an." Zhou Cang was also speechless, looking at the cold soldiers fanning the cold wind.

"Don't worry, bring Lu Meng to me and ask what the situation is."

Lu Bu walked through the courtyard and headed to the back garden. A tattered tent was placed all over the garden, there was not even a guard in front of the door, Lu Bu directly entered it, the greenhouse was gloomy and damp, the black quilt was wet, pinched away, and the water could be squeezed out, and there was not a single stove in the whole shed, and the dense craftsmen were huddled together to keep warm.

"Shouldn't our dwelling be the courtyard in front? Why a damp greenhouse? Lu Bu imitated the appearance of a craftsman, sitting on the wet tattered quilt.

"Hey...... Hey...... The government can not dislike our lowly crafts, and set up a special recruitment department is our ancestors to accumulate virtue. Little brother, you can't be greedy, how can our vulgar identity be compared with the delicate sons, it is a great blessing to have a place to stay. Next to him, a middle-aged man in his thirties, his face was wrinkled, older than fifty years old, and patted Lu Bu's shoulder with a big hand full of thick calluses.

Lu Bu inspected in the middle of the greenhouse, the living environment of the craftsmen was indeed chilling, but their faces were filled with temporary satisfaction, at least there was food and accommodation here.

After a while, Lu Meng arrived with dozens of guards. He was wearing treasure armor, a purple light surged, how coquettish and coquettish he was, at first glance, he was a big official of the Chang'an official mansion, and he was followed by a dense crowd of young men and girls.

Seeing Lu Meng coming, Lu Bu patted his forehead and had a headache: "Can you keep a low profile?" ”

"I don't know why the general is looking for the last general?" Lu Meng bowed to Lu Bu from afar and asked.

As soon as Lu Meng's words fell, there was an uproar in the crowd, especially the scholar who had just scolded Lu Bu, and the craftsman who called Lu Bu a brother and reprimanded Lu Bu for not being greedy in the bow smith's camp. There is no one who connects the imaginary Lu Bu with a calm and down-and-out person.

The craftsman suddenly fell to his knees in fright, and the timid craftsmen around him quickly dodged away, and the craftsman knelt alone in the open space, even more frightened.

Lu Bu stepped forward to help the craftsman first: "Brother, don't be afraid, in my heart, there is a craft that is worthy of respect than those so-called superior people who are full of fish and flesh." ”

"Lu Meng, you told the general, why is the craftsman's residence in this place?" Lu Bu asked Lu Meng coldly.

"This ...... That one...... I arranged for them to be in the outer courtyard. A few days ago, a soldier asked me for a tent, saying that there were too many craftsmen to come, and I couldn't live in the courtyard, so I didn't think much about it, so I allocated the tent. ”

"Get the soldiers who asked you for a tent."

Two soldiers who were supposed to be in charge of standing guard in the craftsman's courtyard arrived, full of alcohol, and it seemed that they had just gone somewhere to spend their days drinking. When the two soldiers heard Lu Meng's question, they confessed in fear. It turned out that some of the sons of the family who came to apply for jobs were disgusted by the crowding of the Shizi Annex, so they decided to come to the Bow Smith's Courtyard, spent money to dredge the guards, and drove the craftsmen to the back garden.

Lu Bu was annoyed in his heart, no matter how many pairs of eyes were staring, he wanted to grow and develop, and if he left without craftsmen, the enemy army could not send a soldier to come forward and say the enemy to death, right? The craftsmen create various weapons that have a great impact on the combat power of the army, and in Lu Bu's heart, the equality of everyone's status is deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

"All generals involved in accepting bribes will be punished by military justice. Lu Meng neglected to supervise, the official was demoted by one level, and went to guard the military pass for Lu Xun. Lu Bu turned his head and pointed to the two guards who were full of wine and food: "These two people are sent to the coolie camp." Regardless of their ability, all scholars who enter the artisan courtyard will be repatriated and will not be hired for life. In the future, if someone takes advantage of the robbery and does not respect others, the punishment will be doubled, and in the eyes of the general, there will be no distinction between high and low, and everyone will be treated equally. ”

Lu Bu talked loudly and won the favor of the craftsmen. One of the craftsmen, Ma Jun, was secretly happy that he had come to the wrong place, and his skills could finally be displayed.

――――――――――

The recruitment was held as scheduled, and one by one the scribes looked at the various exam questions and found that Lu Bu's recruitment was completely child's play, completely different from what they had learned in the scriptures. There are calculations on a bamboo slip, and there are common senses such as prisons, people's livelihood management, and sowing and autumn harvests, which make people have no idea where to start.

Not to mention the scholars, even Chen Gong had a headache when he saw the exam questions, he could barely answer the above questions, I really don't know how Lu Bu came up with it.

"Leave all the scholars who have answered one question, and if they answer more than two questions correctly, send the test paper to my desk." Lu Bu's requirements are very simple, he is not picky, as long as he answers a question, whether it is Meng, or has real talent and learning, he will be left and appointed. According to the questions answered by the scholars, they are divided into categories and assigned to suitable positions. Lu Bu didn't have time to examine the talents of the scholars one by one, so he could only use a rough method.

The assessment of craftsmen is simpler, the government provides materials, and the craftsmen make a good object by hand, as long as the skill is exquisite or practical, they will be left for appointment.

"Lord, it's amazing, there is a strange woman who answers four questions in a row." Chen Gong personally sent a bamboo slip to Lu Bu, and said in surprise: "I never thought that there were geniuses among women in the world. ”

Lu Bu took a look at it, and saw that the four questions of farming, arithmetic, government affairs, and strategy were all marked with her personal opinions, which were indeed superficial views, and they were completely subjective and speculative answers, and there was a serious lack of practical experience. But the scholar who came to apply for the job was not a rhetoric, he copied what he learned in the book, although Wang Yi's knowledge was shallow, he could think deeply and cultivate it in the future, and it would not be a problem to govern one side.

"Investigate this person's background."

Lu Bu didn't sleep endlessly, and all the exam questions sent to him were completed, and he was disappointed in the literary examination, except for a woman Wang Yi, no man with more outstanding talent appeared, which made Lu Bu a little disappointed.
