Let's say that Zhuge Liang looked at this person, but it was Pang Tong, and he also laughed and said: "It turned out to be Mr. Feng Xiao, how have you ever seen someone who died of anger and paid for his life?" It's not that there is no one in Soochow, but there are people who don't make good use of it! ”

After that, the two got off the boat hand in hand, each telling their hearts.

Before leaving, Zhuge Liang left a book for Pang Tong: "I don't expect Sun Zhongmou to be able to reuse his feet." If you are not satisfied, you can come to Jingzhou and help Uncle Huang with me. This person is good at speaking of generosity and kindness, and will not live up to what you and I have learned in our lives. ”

Pang Tong promised to say goodbye, and Zhuge Liang returned to Jingzhou.

Let's say that after Lu Su was ordered to bury Zhou Yu, he went to see Sun Quan: "Lu Su is mediocre and talented, and he was mistakenly recommended by Gongjin, but it is actually difficult to be competent." Gong Jin has an outstanding appearance, an independent mind, and is really a genius in the world. The untimely death of Danai caused me to suffer a heavy loss. Today, when employing people, I am willing to nominate one person to help the lord, or make up for the loss. ”

Sun Quan said: "Gongjin and Zijing are both good friends of the ancestors. Since I succeeded my father and brother, I am still loyal, conscientious, and unslack. Gongjin recommended Zijing to replace him, which must not be a fallacy. Zijing recommends, how can you not use it. I don't know who Zijing is today? ”

Lu Su said: "This person is Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan, I have recommended it to the lord, and it has been used as a gongcao, but it is not reused." ”

Sun Quan said: "How can Pang Tongzhen be so favored by Zijing? ”

Lu Su said: "Pang Tong, a native of Xiangyang, the nephew of the famous man Pang Degong, the reputation of the phoenix, the upper astronomy, the lower geography; The strategy is no less than management and music, and the cardinal is not inferior to the second grandson and Wu. Mr. Shui Jing once said, 'Wolong, phoenix chicks, one person can win the world'. Mr. Wolong, Zhuge Kongming, is also convinced. Gong Jin used his words a lot in Japan. ”

Sun Quan was overjoyed: "I have also been famous for a long time. The last time the son recommended it, it was made a meritorious cao. Jin Zijing recommended it again, presumably there is real talent and real learning. However, I don't know why such a well-known person who is well-educated is not used by Liu Biao, who is good at getting bachelors, and lives here? ”

When Lu Su asked, he told the story of Pang Tong being hunted down for measuring Liu Biao's characters.

When Liu Biao was the pastor of Jingzhou, he sat in Xiangyang, and often traveled lightly to visit celebrities, but he was wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, talented but could not be used, and he could not accept the good. When he heard that Pang Tong used the word test to solve problems for people, gave advice, had extraordinary eyesight, and must be in his words, he disguised himself as a commoner, found Pang Tong, and said that he wanted to test the word.

Pang Tong said, "You can draw a word." ”

Liu Biao didn't answer, and wrote the word "person" with a pen in his hand: "What kind of person do you think I am?"

Pang Tong looked at the fat hand, thought for a while, and said, "Mr. must be an official." ”

Liu Biao was secretly surprised in his heart, but he still walked away quietly on the surface.

After a while, Liu Biao found an entourage and said, "You might as well go and test it too." ”

When the attendant saw Pang Tong, he also wrote the word "person" on the palm of his hand and asked Pang Tong: "What kind of person do you say I am?"

Pang Tong looked his hand back and forth a few times and said, "It is an official entourage." ”

The retinue said yes again and again.

Liu Biao was surprised, but he was not convinced, so he found a prisoner from the prison and asked him to wear a black gauze hat, wear a half-old official uniform, sit in a sedan chair, and come to Pang Tong in front of him.

The prisoner got out of the sedan chair and said, "Hey, please test the word 'human' for me." ”

"Oh, you test that word too." Pang Tong looked at the visitor carefully and said, "It must be a prisoner." ”

When Liu Biao heard the report, he thought to himself: This person really has two hits.

So, Liu Biao found a beggar to beg for food and changed him into clean clothes. The man came to Pang Tong, and Pang Tong asked, "What words do you want to measure?"

The beggar took a stick and wrote the word "man" on the ground, saying, "Sir, pitiful, pitiful." See who I am?"

Pang Tong looked at the words on the ground for a while, looked at the man for a while, and said, "Presumably you are begging along the street." ”

Liu Biao was convinced and saw Pang Tong again: "Mr. really knows people, it's rare!" After that, he asked: "Sir, how can you so quickly determine the identity of a person based on the word 'person'?"

Pang Tong smiled and said: "There are all kinds of people, and they must show their expressions." Take the four "people" words measured today, the first "people" character is written on the left like a knife, and the right hand is like hitting a board, and the word is rampant and proud, so it can be inferred that it must be very human. The second word 'person' is written in the palm of the person's hand, and the ancient proverb 'the back of the hand is up, and the palm of the hand is down,' and the person who comes is cautious, only promised, and has the appearance of a dog and a horse, so it is inferred that it must be the entourage of the official. The third word 'person', although it comes from the mouth of the person who came, but the person who came was dressed in fine clothes and had a dish on his face, and he sat on his shoulder and walked in fear, and this 'person' came out of the mouth, then he was a prisoner, and the person who came was judged to be a prisoner. The fourth character 'human' is more legible, the person who comes is skinny and can be seen all over the street, and if he draws a thin character 'human' on the ground with a stick, he can immediately conclude that he is a beggar. ”

Liu Biao listened, although he was full of praise, but secretly thought to himself: This person is young and extraordinary, intelligent, and often solves problems for people and wins people's hearts. If it is made to wander in the rivers and lakes and deceive people's hearts, I am afraid that it will be in danger of seizing the lord in the future! He was imprisoned for life.

When Pang Tong heard the wind, he went into seclusion, Liu Biao sent people to chase the shop around, and Pang Tong crossed the river to take refuge.

Sun Quan listened to it and felt quite interesting: "But please come and see you immediately." ”

Lu Su immediately invited Pang Tong to see Sun Quan.

Sun Quan looked at him, with thick eyebrows and nose, black face and short hair, strange appearance, and dislike in his heart, so he asked Pang Tong: "What has Mr. learned in his life, what is the main thing?" ”

Pang Tong said: "Don't be stubborn, just adapt. ”

Sun Quan said: "How does what Mr. has learned compared to Gongjin? ”

Pang Tong said: "What I have learned is very different from Gongjin. What Gong Jin has learned is a strategy for people to admire and praise; What Shi Yuan learned was the strategy of assisting the Führer in commanding the army. ”

Sun Quan liked Zhou Yu the most in his life, and when he saw that Pang Tong had contempt for Zhou Yu, he was even more unhappy in his heart, and said to Pang Tong: "Mr. Go back, wait for Mr. Useful, and invite yourself." ”

Pang Tong sighed and resigned.

Lu Su said: "Why doesn't the lord reuse Pang Shiyuan? ”

Sun Quan said: "Crazy man, what good is it for? ”

Lu Su didn't say anything more, and hurriedly walked out and said to Pang Tong: "If I don't try my best to recommend, it's really that Wu Hou refuses to reuse Mr. ”

Pang Tong said: "Zi respects his heart, and Shi Yuan understands it." There is no need for people here, there are people for themselves. Speaking of employing people, who can compare with Cao Mengde? ”

Lu Su hurriedly said, "Mr. Fei wants to vote for Cao Cao?" ”

Pang Tong sighed.

Lu Su said: "Mr. Yi's talent for the world, and you can't invest in the pearl." If you don't like Soochow, you can go to Jingzhou to join the emperor's uncle, and you will definitely reuse it. ”

Pang Tong said: "There is no room for people. How can we achieve the cause of unifying the world, at most, we can only rely on the dangerous geographical advantages of the river to divide one side, and it will eventually be eaten up and swallowed up. ”

Lu Su was shocked: "What Mr. said is extremely true, if Sun Liu loses the union, Cao Cao will take advantage of the gap and break through." I also hope that Mr. will help stabilize the alliance of Sun and Liu, and unanimously resist Cao. ”

Pang Tong said: "I sacrificed a series of schemes to cause Cao Cao's Chibi defeat, how can Cao Cao tolerate me?" Besides, Kong Ming is at the emperor's uncle, how can he abandon each other? ”

Lu Su was relieved: "I will write a book to Uncle Huang and recommend Mr." Mr. Wang is committed to uniting the two companies to form a united front. ”

Pang Tong said: "This is also my wish. After that, he took Lu Su's recommendation and went to Jingzhou to see Liu Bei.

Pang Tong has a talent for learning, but he is also proud of his talents, and when he heard that Zhuge Liang had not returned to the four counties, he deliberately did not take out the recommendation letters of Zhuge Liang and Lu Su, and saw Liu Bei Chang and did not bow: "I heard that Uncle Huang is recruiting talents, and I have come to meet each other." ”

Although Liu Bei had heard of his name for a long time, he saw that his appearance was not good, and he was so arrogant, and his heart was not happy, but he was afraid of ruining his reputation, so he turned it into a career and appointed him as the county commander to try to guard Leiyang County, Guiyang County (now Leiyang, Hengyang, Hunan).

Pang Tong was unhappy in his heart, but because of the affection of his classmate Zhuge Liang, it was inconvenient to compete, so as not to be underestimated, so he reluctantly accepted his order and left.

When Pang Tong came to Leiyang, he saw that it was a remote and remote county of 100 miles, and he thought to himself: Most people in the world think that Liu Bei is generous, benevolent and virtuous, and a corporal of courtesy, but he also judges people by his appearance. If it weren't for Kong Ming's outing, I'm afraid that he would still be a remnant of the Han clan who took refuge everywhere, had no fixed place, his father didn't want to accept it, his mother didn't dare to ask for it, and he was spurned by the people. When he thought that he didn't want to bury what he had learned in his life, and he didn't want to serve the declining Han family, he evaded Liu Biao's pursuit and took refuge in Jiangdong. I don't want Sun Quan but don't reuse it, and Lu Su is afraid that Cao Cao will use it, so I recommend it to Liu Bei. Who would have thought that Liu Bei would treat me so poorly, treating me as a "thousand-mile official, for food and clothing" who sold himself to seek food. Fortunately, he didn't show the letter of recommendation from Kong Ming and Zijing, otherwise he would not have been discussed as a gangster who "relied on friends to ask for officials".

When Pang Tong thought of this, he suddenly became bored, and borrowed wine all day to relieve his boredom, ignoring county affairs.

When the news reached Liu Bei, he was furious and dismissed from his post, and Zhang flew to Leiyang to take Pang Tong back.

Zhuge Liang came back from his inspection, and when he saw Liu Bei, he asked, "How is Master Pang in good health recently?" ”

Liu Bei was stunned: "Why did you come to Master Pang?" ”

Zhuge Liang asked in surprise: "Could it be that Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan didn't come to Jingzhou?" ”

Liu Bei said: "Sent to govern Leiyang, good wine and waste, I have ordered Yide to retrieve it." ”

Zhuge Liang was shocked again: "Didn't Shi Yuan show the letter of recommendation I wrote to the lord?" ”

Liu Bei said: "I haven't seen the book of military advisors. ”

Zhuge Liang said: "Pang Tong's learning in his chest is ten times better than mine. I wrote a book to recommend to the lord, and I want to ask the lord to be appointed as a military advisor and treat me equally. Shi Yuan is not a hundred miles of talent, big talent is not useful, big sage and small responsibility, often confused with wine, tired of looking at things. ”

While talking, Zhang Fei led Pang Tong to see.

Pang Tongyi saw Zhuge Liang: "Thank you for the official reward, and there is wine to drink." ”

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "The phoenix chick succumbs to Leiyang, but it is also happy." ”

At the mention of Feng Yan, Liu Bei suddenly remembered Mr. Shui Jing's words "Wolong and Feng Yan can settle the world", and hurriedly went down the steps to apologize to Pang Tong.

Only then did Pang Tong take out the recommendation letters of Zhuge Liang and Lu Su.

The gist of Zhuge Liang's recommendation is known, and Liu Bei carefully looked at Lu Su's recommendation: "Pang Shiyuan is through astronomy and geography; The strategy is no less than management and music, and the cardinal is not inferior to the second grandson and Wu. As for the Eastern Wu, he offered a plan for fire attack, and planned to urge Cao Cao to connect the boat with iron cables, so that there was a great victory in Chibi. Whether it is based on talent or merit, merit is subservient, if you are given the responsibility of governing the middle and not driving, you can show your hands and feet. Talent cannot be taken from the show, how can the sea water be measured? If you judge people by their appearance, you are afraid that what you have learned will eventually be used by others, which is a pity! ”

Liu Bei saw that he ordered a banquet with wine, pulling Zhuge Liang with his left hand and Pang Tong with his right hand, and entered the banquet together. Pang Tong was immediately appointed as the governor of the central government, and worshiped as the deputy military division lieutenant general. The personal treatment is only inferior to Zhuge Liang, so that Zhuge Liang praises the strategy, coaches the sergeant, and listens to the expedition. Exactly: Judging people by their appearance and losing their high handsomeness, he regretted it: "If it weren't for Kong Ming and Zijing's recommendation, it would almost be a big mistake, and if you lose your sage, you should be punished for drinking and making amends." Listen to the recommendation of Nashide's talents. If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
