Chapter 855: Liu Bei farmed Zhuge and came to the door
Does Liu Bei love farming? This question is actually very stupid, if Liu Bei loves farming, why should he go to weaving mats and selling shoes? He has been a restless lord since he was a child, according to the summary of our Chinese saints, the average filial piety is not bad, and the average farmer is a relatively peaceful person, so there is no doubt that the restless Liu Bei does not like farming.
But now in Jingzhou, Liu Bei, who has a large territory, has to like farming, and he has to take the lead in farming, Juntun, Mintun, and Yiren Tun all the ways to get food Liu Bei supports, and officials and businessmen, local businessmen, and stranger businessmen, all behaviors that can activate commerce and trade Liu Bei encourages, for only one purpose, to develop the strength of their own territory as soon as possible, as soon as possible, as soon as possible.
This is like a knockout match, some people are already out, such as Zhang Miao, Bao Xin, Zhang Chao, some people are about to be out, such as Liu Dai, and some are desperately fighting to stay in the game, such as Gongsun Zhan, Zhang Yang, and many very dangerous predators and heroes. Just next door to Liu Bei, there are such three, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and Yuan Shu, as for Dong Zhuo and Liu Yan in the west, they can't take care of Liu Bei for the time being, and the Yiren in the south still needs time to grow.
But it is the existence of these three that has made Liu Bei difficult to sleep and eat, and he is fighting! Liu Bei is not stunned, and even quite confident, because he also has a lot of people who can fight, in addition to the two famous brothers, Liu Bei also has Fan Chou, Chen Zhi and the newly voted Li Tong and Wei Yan, these are all generals who can take charge of themselves, so when it comes to war, Liu Bei is still confident.
However, the competition between the princes is not just war, unless Liu Bei is ready to be a rogue, otherwise, war will always be only the existence of the second place, and if you want to be strong, the most important thing is talent and development. Talent is not something that can be improved overnight, but the development of things is indeed a matter of seizing the day, therefore, Liu Bei, who doesn't like farming, must start liking farming, and he must like it very much. It is also necessary to make Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other generals also like it. For all the states and counties under his jurisdiction are desolate!
Jingzhou is undoubtedly a place of four wars, and it is also a core place, Liu Bei now has a deep understanding of Fang Zhiwen's analysis at that time, Jingzhou is a good place! That's it. Liu Bei has always been grateful to Fang Zhiwen, but Fang Zhiwen supported the Jingxiang clan behind his back and tried every means to create obstacles for Liu Bei, which made Liu Bei extremely resentful. And most people like to hold grudges rather than gratitude, Liu Bei is also such a person, of course, on the surface he does it the other way around.
Although Liu Bei didn't understand why Fang Zhiwen wanted to do this, he had no way to change all this immediately, looking at the princes around Liu Bei, it was precisely the Jingxiang clan that was the easiest to deal with, so Liu Bei was now working hard to develop, vowing to completely take down the Jingxiang clan. Even if it is necessary to vent his anger to Fang Zhiwen, not to mention, if Liu Bei wants to continue to grow, the Jingxiang clan is a hurdle that he must overcome.
"Lord, lord 1
"Ahh I'm distracted, is there something wrong? Liu Bei took a deep breath, withdrew his gaze from the mountains in the distance, and looked at Chen Zhen with a calm face. Chen Zhen's expression seemed to be the same all year round.
"Well, two things. One thing is that this year's autumn grain harvest has come up. The total is 1.5 million quintals, an increase of 10 and a half percent over last year, and we will collect 4 million quintals of grain this year. ”
Liu Bei's somewhat dark face showed a smile of relief: "Great, so this year's grain shouldn't have to be purchased outside?" ”
"I still need to buy some to make reserves, and there is another thing, there is a scholar from Jingxiang who wants to meet the lord."
"Scholar? Great, where? ”
"In the foyer in front, it is the eldest son of the Zhuge family in Xiangyang, called Zhuge Jin, and the name Ziyu."
Chen Zhen raised his eyebrows slightly, which was a kind of smile.
Liu Bei was happy and anxious: "Hurry up, go quickly, don't make the guests wait for a long time."
Why did Zhuge Jin come to Liu Bei? Naturally, he also has the same thoughts as Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, wanting to find a suitable lord, in order to ensure that his talents are not submerged in time, in order to be able to appear in the world, and to seek that his family can prosper forever, Zhuge Jin, who is only seventeen years old, has also embarked on a journey to find the master.
However, Zhuge Jin has no intention of going north, although Zhuge Jin is not a Jingxiang person, but Zhuge Jin likes this place in Jiangnan from the heart, so he has no intention of running far, in Zhuge Jin's opinion, there are already many candidates for the Ming Lord around Jingxiang, such as Liu Bei, Sun Jian, Cao Cao, etc., Yuan Shao and others in the north, although they are famous, but Zhuge Jin does not like them.
Previously, Zhuge Jin went to visit Xu Gong, Wang Lang, Liu Miao and Sun Jian, all the way up the river, all the way to Liu Bei, of course, Cai Mao doesn't have to, Zhuge Jin is so smart, how can he not see that Cai Mao is not a male lord at all.
Along the way, Zhuge Jin will be the actions of the princes into the eyes, in fact, many things do not need to see the main master, only the place under his jurisdiction can understand, what is the talent and ability of this person, what is the characteristics and character of this lord, so in Zhuge Jin's view, on both sides of the Yangtze River, it seems that only Sun Jian and Liu Bei have a more long-term vision and plan, and have higher ambitions and determination to realize this ambition, and others are just mediocre people, or people with high hearts and shallow talents.
The only regret is that Sun Jian and Zhuge Jin only met once, and later sent Zhuge Jin to Sun Ce because Zhuge Jin was young, Sun Ce is not bad, he has already begun to emerge at a young age, but no matter what, Zhuge Jin still feels that he has been despised, of course, there is also Zhuge Jin's background.
Because now Sun Jian is in conflict with Cai Mao, Cai Mao's fleet squeezes Sun Jian and the Zhu family's fleet on the Yangtze River, forcing Sun Jian's fleet to move to the two lakes, and gradually loses the substantial control of the Yangtze River waterway, and Cai Mao took this opportunity to look at Liu Mao, which made Sun Jian and his annoyance, but he couldn't make enemies on both sides, so he couldn't help but have some impatience with Zhuge Jin from Jingxiang.
So, Zhuge Jin, who originally served Sun Ce, continued to go up the river to visit Liu Bei after being treated a little coldly, unlike Sun Jian's coldness, Liu Bei's enthusiasm was enough to melt the glacier, and sometimes Zhuge Jin even wondered if Liu Bei was also interested in men.
"Lord, my subordinates still have things to do, so I won't accompany them! Brother Ziyu, rude 1
Chen Zhen saw Liu Bei's stickiness, shook his head gently, seeing that Liu Bei was ready to fight fatigue from day to night, Chen Zhen hurriedly said goodbye!
"Don't dare, don't dare! Delayed the time of filial piety 1
"Oh, Naxiao went to be busy at first, to see if Gongyou had time, to accompany Ziyu, Ziyu talked about Qingqi, and should have a good friendship1
The subordinate understood, and the subordinate retired1
"Filial piety and slow walking1 Liu Bei smiled and waved his hand, seeing Zhuge Jin very interesting, from this point of view, Liu Bei is very generous to his subordinates, and he respects his subordinates very much.
"Ziyu traveled all the way from Wu County, can you tell me what you saw and heard along the way! I can be said to be lonely in Wancheng now, and I am busy farming all day long, hehe. ”
Liu Bei rubbed his calloused hands, Zhuge Jin's eyes were very good, seeing that Liu Bei's hands were really like old farmers, his heart couldn't help but move, it was really touching to practice the Lord like this, presumably the improvement of the development degree on Liu Bei's territory should be good, at least the people's hearts must be very stable.
"Hehe, my lord laughed, but in the next way from the Yangtze River upstream, there are some opinions, since the adults are asked, I will say it for my reference 1
"Very good, Ziyu, please say 1
"Wait, wait, I'd like to hear it later.1
"Hehe, Gongyou, come, let's introduce you to a Jing Xiang Caikan
"Lord, you can say that this is wrong, Ziyu is still half a fellow countryman under him, how can he be a talent in Jingxiang, obviously a talent in Qingxu 1
Zhuge Jin stood up, saluted with a smile that was neither arrogant nor humble, and said: "This is the world-famous Sun Gongyou Sun, and he is polite 1."
"Hehe, polite, polite, but I'm not an adult below, Ziyu, please call me a word, Ziyu's name has long been heard, and now I can see it, it's very gratifying.1
"It's rude to be so rude, Brother Gongyou is famous, what reputation can insult Your Excellency.1
Liu Bei smiled and said: "Okay, okay, both of them are great talents, there is no need to be humble to each other, both sit, sit down, Ziyu continued to talk about what he saw and heard in the Yangtze River." ”
"Yes, Ziyu, please sit down, I also want to hear what Ziyu has to say."
Sun Qian also smiled and stretched out his hand to signal, Zhuge Jin still waited for Sun Qian to sit down, he sat down unhurriedly, in these subtle places, unconsciously showed his profound family heritage, seeing Sun Qian nodded secretly, no matter how Zhuge Jin is talented, at least he is a humble gentleman in his bones.
Sun Qian secretly glanced at Liu Bei, and Liu Bei nodded knowingly.
Zhuge Jin naturally didn't notice the very vague communication between these two people, but frowned slightly and carefully organized his thoughts, and then slowly said:
"I came all the way from Wu County, and also visited the local gentry market, Jiangdong is prosperous, and the humanities are prosperous, only to see a piece of peace and contentment, and there is no displacement in the Central Plains, which is really a paradise outside the world. However, the essence of Jiangdong is along the Yangtze River, extending to the south, the more barren and barbaric, the more barbaric, the more barbarian the mountain, the more barbarian the mountain, is the trouble of Jiangdong's heart. Looking at the north again, the land of Yangxu is strong and strong, if it is not blocked by the Yangtze River, it may have gone south to collect the land of Jiangdong. Therefore, Koto seems to be safe and dangerous1
Sun Qian and Liu Bei glanced at each other and smiled: "Ziyu has a unique opinion, but Jiangdong is not a Sun Jian now, Liu Miao also has the intention of integrating Jiangdong when he goes south
Zhuge Jin smiled slightly: "It's easier said than done1."
