"Hahaha, Zichuan is joking. I have met Zi's family before. Although they have a strong personality, it would be a joke to say that they are comparable to Xiaozhi. Although Xiaozhi has an out-of-the-box personality, his level of genius is rare in the world.
." Liu Bei said solemnly that it was not that he had never seen Lu Yu before, and it was because he had seen him that he evaluated Lu Yu. In his opinion, although Lu Yu was excellent, he was far inferior to Fa Zheng.
"It's different, Mr. Xuande, filial piety is stronger than intelligence, but Lu Yu's intelligence is hidden. If he takes another path, his achievements will not be weaker than Fa Xiaozhi." Chen Xi shook his head.
said.
"Really?" Liu Bei asked in disbelief.
"Amazing talent and beauty are not enough to describe." Chen Xi shook his head and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked me to bring him back personally. He is very good."
"Oh, then I'll leave it to you to take care of him." Liu Bei thought for a while and still believed Chen Xi's words. After all, his teacher Lu Zhi only has one son left. If he can really grow up to the level of Fa Zheng as Chen Xi said,
After that, it will be much easier for him to help, and it will save the Lu family from ruin.
"Don't worry, in less than ten years, the Lu Zi family will surely amaze Mr. Xuande." Chen Xi said with a smile, "Did Yuan Benchu send this jade plate?"
"If I had such a jade plate, I would have mortgaged it when I built Mount Tai." Liu Bei said with a smile, "Why do you like it? If you like it, I will give it to you. Our white porcelain is getting better and better." As he said,
Liu Bei picked up the wine cup, and suddenly the cup had a glistening color.
"This development is fast enough..." Chen Xi said with a wry smile. Sure enough, in ancient times, if it was really needed, the technology below would have developed abnormally fast. "In other words, before I left, I asked them to design agricultural tools, water wheels, etc.
They have already achieved results?"
"It's not good yet. Although Han Mou is very satisfied with the results, they are still far behind your requirements, and they are damaged a bit quickly." Liu Bei said helplessly, "But fortunately, Xiaozhi's iron farm tools have been damaged.
Work has started.”
"Don't your master craftsmen have any clues?" Chen Xi asked helplessly. After all, the most important thing in this era is the food problem. As long as there is food to eat, even if the entire market collapses, the Han Dynasty can grit its teeth and survive.
"No." Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this. The Zi family is here. Remember to come to my house in the evening. I will take care of you. By the way, there are some things that require your presence."
"I won't forget it." Chen Xi nodded and said.
"I'm afraid that as soon as your wife and concubine come back, you will forget about this matter. When there are no outsiders, everyone knows what's going on. This time, you have to pick up the Lu family no matter what, so you should be more careful."
Liu Bei warned him. After all, Chen Xi had a criminal record in this regard.
"The Lu Zi family has met General Zhendong." Lu Yu, who looked calm, saluted Liu Bei, then turned to Chen Xi and saluted, "I have met Chen Hou."
"You don't have to do this in the Zi family, just call me senior brother. Your sister-in-law and nephew are now in the Lu Mansion next to me. I thought you were going to study with the prince, so I didn't make any arrangements. Now that you are back, that's it.
Live there, food and clothing are always available there." Liu Bei said with a smile on his face.
"How can Yu be so ignorant of etiquette?" Lu Yu shook his head, and Liu Bei shrugged helplessly. He didn't mind at all that Lu Yu called him senior brother, and since he said he would take care of the whole Lu family, there would be no difference.
Unfortunately, it was obvious to Liu Bei that Lu Yu was a little stupid.
"I have forgotten that you have a residence in Taishan. In that case, you should go see your sister-in-law and nephew as soon as possible. Go to the Government Affairs Office after midnight tomorrow. I will introduce someone to you when you do. But
Whether you can become his apprentice depends on your ability." Chen Xi turned to Lu Yu and said, he was also negligent, but Lu Yu didn't tell him about it.
"Thank you very much, Marquis Chen." Lu Yu said while trying his best to stay calm.
"Go." Liu Bei said with a smile, and then arranged for three or two guards to take Lu Yu to the Lu Mansion together.
"How?" Chen Xi asked.
"More than calm, not enough agility, just a middle-aged man. But as long as I am here, nothing will happen to the Lu family. And with his young age and hard work, he will not become a dandy, so unhappy."
Speaking of the Lu family, at least with my protection it will not decline." Liu Bei shook his head and said, he still didn't see the slightest spark in Lu Yu.
"Tomorrow I will take him to see Jia Wenhe. Tonight I will ask someone to give him information about Wenhe. With his qualifications and my recommendation, it will not be difficult to pass Wenhe's test. It just depends on whether he takes it seriously.
Yes, Mr. Xuande will understand tomorrow." Chen Xi said with a smile.
"I'm afraid it's not easy. Of course, it would be great to have Wen He as my teacher. Unfortunately, I can see that Wen He has little motivation. If I dial him and he moves, I don't care about him, and he doesn't.
He stopped moving. The desire for power and family is very weak. I wanted to be a matchmaker for his daughter before, but the result was like that." Liu Bei said helplessly.
Liu Bei now has a deep understanding of his group of people. Chen Xi basically doesn't do the work himself, but only assigns work to others. If Lu Su really can't finish it, Chen Xi will help, but it's more about sorting out the work. See
See where there is room for simplification, and then pass it on to others after simplification.
Needless to say, Lu Su was the most conscientious workaholic under his command. He could do any task. He would have finished all the work if no one else was around.
Guo Jia is lazy all day long, usually only dealing with intelligence and generally doing strategic planning. As for government affairs, no one usually comes to him.
As a secretary, Li You performed his duties diligently, but he rarely took the initiative to do anything. His main task throughout the day was to answer Liu Bei's questions.
Jia Xu, on the other hand, except for the things that have been arranged at hand, will drink tea and eat snacks whenever no one cares about him. When he came from Chang'an, he was skinny and dry, but now he is a bit rich.
Liu Ye can do everything, but unfortunately he gets distracted from time to time, and when he gets distracted, he can even lose sight of his eyes for most of the day. Liu Bei sometimes feels that Liu Ye, the bastard, is deliberately pretending to be distracted.
In fact, Liu Bei sometimes felt that Li You and Jia Xu were avoiding suspicion. They deliberately did not touch some things, or if you did not ask them if it was not necessary, they would not manage these things.
"There is a high possibility that the Lu Zi family can pass. Forget it, Mr. Xuande will know by then. These are all trivial matters. I have returned to Mount Tai, and the second step of my plan should be put on the agenda.
It's over." Chen Xi said openly, since Hulao Pass, he has finally reached this point!
