Chapter 61 Is it really good to be so insidious at the age of 16

Seeing Li Su being directly introduced to the village by Lu Su, Guan Yu felt that his imagination had been refreshed again - it turned out that the effect of publishing a book was so great! Even if it was just a story book with simple words!

Not only can you make money by selling books, but you can also make other scholars with low status exclaim when they see you, "It turns out that you are the great sage who wrote XXX" and then treat you with great respect.

Writing a book, it is really cost-effective to sell this business.

Before, when Cai Yong and Gu Yong first saw Li Su, they didn't take him seriously because they were "virtuous" than Li Su. However, when they came to Lu Su's self-taught local rich man, Li Su's social status and academic reputation were obviously surpassed.

"I am also a self-taught and cheerful person. I treat people well and can make friends. I will talk to him about his views on the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period." Guan Yu thought proudly, thinking that Lu Su was worthy of talking about his experience in the Spring and Autumn Period.

When a group of people entered the village, Li Su didn't want to spend too much effort, so he decided to give it a try according to Zhou Yu's words in history.

While walking, he directly pointed out his intention: "Brother Lu, I will tell you that this time I was going to go to Guangling to recruit soldiers by the court, and first search for the Mi family in Qu County to raise some money and grain. But since he entered the Xiapi County border and inquired about merchants from all over the world, he said that his brother was loyal to the poor and was distracted from his wealth and the country, so he came here to see the reputation."

Lu Su asked Li Su to sit opposite him in the study, and Guan Yu sat down horizontally. As for Dian Wei, because he was illiterate and impatient to listen to these things, he just wandered around with the shopkeeper outside.

After sitting down, Lu Su asked cautiously: "Did the imperial court recruit soldiers but did not give enough money? If he paid for the country, it would be a bottomless abyss."

Lu Su is generous, but his IQ is still very good. He can make friends with heroes with righteousness, but he will not fill the bottomless pit.

Is it because you, Li Su, owes others favors, or is the illusory country owed others favors? The country has no representative and the emperor does not know about this, so the money will be wasted.

Li Su nodded: "To be honest, the embarrassment of the court is the truth. The recruitment expenses are not enough. The official responsible lieutenant Wuqiu can also deceive as many people as possible. At most, the military pay and military food will be treated as preferentially as possible.

However, this time, someone borrowed money and food not for the sake of the imperial army—Liu Xuande, the magistrate of Liangxiang County of Zhuo County. He had a life-saving grace for me. He killed Zhongshan Supervisor first and helped me to have the first rebellion, so I was the one who served me as my brother.

Most of the soldiers recruited by the court officials could not fight. In order to defend the township, County Magistrate Liu wanted me to take advantage of the private placement of Danyang elite soldiers and bring them back to Youzhou. However, these private soldiers did not have the settlement fee and military pay allocated by the court, and they had military food. I heard that my brother had a little grain at his home, so he came to collect some military food, so he could only eat the private soldiers of our headquarters on the way to Youzhou. As for the money to raise soldiers, I would find Mi Zizhong to find a way."

When Lu Su heard this, his expression was excited: "It turns out that Brother Li and Liu Liangxiang, who is famous for filial piety in the world, have such kindness. No wonder you have made a name for him. Liu Gong's loyalty and filial piety are both loyal and filial, and Brother Li's righteousness is really ashamed. Since he serves such a heroic and righteous man, it goes without saying that - Brother Li can go to my house to eat, choose any one of them at will to get it."

Guan Yu kept sitting next to him with his eyes squinting. He was also a little excited when he heard that Lu Su was so generous: "Lu Jun is really a heroic righteous man. Guan traveled around the world and has not seen a powerful man as such generous yet."

As he said that, Guan Yu took the initiative to bow to Lu Su.

"This one is..."

Li Su then remembered that he would borrow grain as soon as he met, but he didn't even introduce it: "This is Guan Yu, Guan Yun, and his brother of Xuande. Although Xuande has fought against the Yellow Turbans, he must first fight every battle. He is extremely brave and has accomplished his achievements as Sima of other departments.

On the way to the south, Du Lai Guan Sima killed the thieves and guards, and set out a way for the Duwei of Wuqiu. What I saw were the heads of the thieves who were hung by Ma Xiang, and they were all killed by Guan Sima and Diantun Chief."

Upon hearing this, Lu Su hurriedly replied the gift and chatted with Guan Yu for a while.

Guan Yu heard that Lu Su was also looked down upon by those great families who passed on poetry and books because he was born into a powerful landlord, and could not become famous teachers. He felt more and more that he was in the same world. He felt that he was "having real studies but not a diploma" and was a worldly destiny!

It’s like a big company where managers from two different departments have good performance and are all students from famous schools. But they are not students from famous schools themselves, they all learn practical experience while working. In this way, the two of them get together and they can immediately drink wine and take a bath together to create sparks.

Before the food was obtained, Guan Yu and Lu Su had a good chat. He made an appointment to have a good meal at the village in the evening, and he would not stop getting drunk, and then he would chat about the two of them's understanding of some allusions of the Spring and Autumn Period.

Li Su looked around and was secretly surprised: You two were going to go to the meeting alone!

It can only be said that Lu Su's temper and temperament are in agreement with Guan Yu, and the "ethics" of Lu Su should be combined with Liu Bei's camp. Unfortunately, in the original history, they were all their leaders.

Since that's the case, I don't need to be in a dilemma for this life, so I just move forward and do it well.

As the group chatted, Lu Su was more impatient than Li Su. He pulled Li Su's sleeve to the grain warehouse and insisted that Li Su order a little immediately, even if it was the military ration sponsored by his family.

Li Su followed the trend and was quite proud in his heart: Zhou Yu borrowed grain and pointed out the allusion of giving to each other, but at least he did not disappear in this life, but he just replaced Zhou Yu with himself.

"Okay, then that's all. Let's calculate it roughly first." Lu Su was also careful. In order to show his sincerity, he directly asked the shopkeeper to push the penis and roughly measure it.

The shopkeeper measured in person and said that there were about two thousand hu. Lu Su immediately stated that when picking up the goods in the future, he would directly carry two thousand hu when picking up the goods.

This will prevent people from saying in the future, "Li Su is reluctant to leave after he has chosen it for a while, and secretly moves part of the grain from this place to another place."

If a good person does everything, he must do it thoroughly and not leave any flaws.

Li Su knew his intentions, so of course he did not stop him. Guan Yu and others saw it and secretly praised Lu Su for his meticulousness.

After Lu Su finished his order, Li Sucai invited him sincerely: "Since my brother has joined us in this relationship, why not go north to join us together? Isn't it a pleasure to be a county official first, raise money, grain, and govern the robbers and serve the country? Isn't it great to treat people with kindness in less than half a year, and you will definitely be granted an official position in the court."

This time, Lu Su thought a little more than before borrowing grain: "Start with the county officials, I don't want to do it. Those money, grain, and mundane affairs are not the directors. If Xuande Gong is sincere and knows my talent, I would rather start with a counselor without qualities and orders, which would be transcendent.

When I make great contributions through strategy, I will be given an official position. If Brother Boya can respond to my request, I will be able to walk with me for a few days. Su was young and not scrupulous enough, so he happened to practice and learn with Brother Boya."

"It is natural for people to not want to be a minor official with money, grain and household registration. This is easy, so I agree to it on behalf of Duke Xuande." As long as Li Su can pull people, he will be extremely eager, and agree to all these details.

Lu Su's internal affairs are also very strong, but it is mainly focused on the general principles. He is not as good as Zhuge Liang when he manages money and household registration. At least Zhuge Liang is more rigorous and selfless, and Zhuge Liang is much stronger in the construction of the rule of law.

Seeing that he was happy, Lu Su also said: "Since that's the case, we will not stop drunk tonight. From tomorrow, Brother Boya will go to find Mi Zizhong to work. I will be almost ready for you when you return.

At that time, I will go south to Guangling with everyone. I will be here for a long time and understand the situation in Guangling and Danyang. Maybe I will make some achievements when recruiting Danyang soldiers."

Qu County where the Mi family is located is located in the northeast of Quyang, so after lent Mi Zhu money, he still had to pass by Lu Su's family back, so Lu Su said this.

Li Su agreed, but was quite interested in some of the details in Lu Su's last words: "My dear brother is planning to make contributions when recruiting soldiers? Isn't recruiting soldiers just to have money and grain? Since my dear brother said that he is not good at registering money and grain, how can he make contributions? Can he still choose to identify the source of soldiers? That is the position of a military minister."

Lu Su smiled proudly: "You come from afar, don't know the situation of Guangling and Danyang. If you directly recruit soldiers with money, of course there is no room for merit.

But there are many heroes and handsome men in Danyang. Since the Xingjian in the Southern District last year, there have been many refugees fleeing from Chaisang and Yuzhang, among which there are also Zongshuai. These local heroes and handsome men in Danyang have many struggles with refugees and sonshuai. Today, these companies join forces, and tomorrow those companies conflict again.

Since you have the imperial edict in your hands, if you take advantage of it, win over several of them, and buy prisoners from the winner, wouldn’t it be more cost-effective than buying the free people of Shanyue?”

When Li Su heard this, he was stunned.

Damn, can you still do this if you recruit soldiers?

For a moment, he felt that Lu Su was vaguely in the shadow of a 16th-century British slave trader.
