Chapter 52 Rushing in both directions
Liu Bei is still kind. When he heard that Lu Su was going to give all these things to him, he immediately felt a sense of indebtedness.
After hesitating for a moment, Liu Bei still refused: "Zijing, to tell you the truth, the state's expenses are indeed beyond its means. In order to raise money and food for farming, Bei also tried every means and tried every means.
Fortunately, the Mi family in the state generously donated 100,000 shi of food and 1 million yuan of supplies to meet their urgent needs.
Zijing's move was really a timely help, but now that the supplies for farming were available, Zijing's I appreciate your kindness. You can use these wealth to purchase fields and build a manor in Tancheng.”
Lu Su felt that the rhythm was not right today, but he seemed to be used to the waves of shocks.
He originally thought that the batch of goods he brought, especially the five thousand shi of grain, would greatly alleviate Liu Bei's food shortage, which could be said to be a timely help.
As a result, Liu Bei actually refused to accept it now.
What is even more shocking is that the Mi family actually sponsored Liu Bei 100,000 shi of food in one go.
Tao Qian was working in the fields before, and he got 10,000 shi of grain from the Mi family at an extraordinary price.
Judging from this price, Liu Bei would only be worth so much food and money if he gave up the position of state pastor to Mi Zhu.
Lu Su couldn't help but want to ask Mi Zhu why you were so crazy.
Although I was depressed in my heart, I still wanted to speak sternly on my face: "My lord, these possessions are just a token of my heart, to contribute a little to the cause of the Lord."
At this time. , Liu Feng spoke: "Father, the more supplies for farming, especially grain, the better.
It is rare for Mr. Zijing to be sincere. If you insist on denying his good intentions, I am afraid that Mr. Zijing will be hurt. .”
Lu Su received help from Liu Feng and hurriedly agreed: "What the young master said is exactly what Zijing feels!"
Liu Bei looked shocked: "In this case, then Bei deserves it."< br>
Seeing that Liu Bei was willing to accept his gift, Lu Su also breathed a sigh of relief.
If he can't deliver this, Lu Zijing will be in disgrace.
However, it was the proper process for Liu Bei to refuse and respond. Lu Su was just too nervous.
Speaking of which, this was all Liu Feng's fault. It was because he did too much that Lu Zijing's plans were shattered one after another, and he was so frightened that he lost his normal mind.
Afterwards, Liu Bei spoke seriously to Lu Su: "Zijing, Bei Shi wants to use you seriously. It's just that you just arrived and promoted him rashly, which made the villain jealous."
Liu Bei's tone was sincere. , with a sincere attitude.
Lu Su naturally couldn't be picky, but wanted to thank Liu Bei for his statement.
At least Liu Bei said that I personally admire you very much, but due to various reasons, I cannot directly put you in a high position, but as soon as you make a contribution, I will promote you immediately.
With such a statement, Lu Su was already satisfied.
Unexpectedly, Liu Bei’s subsequent appointments greatly exceeded Lu Su’s expectations.
"Zijing, I want to ask you to be the captain of Dian Nong School, or the magistrate of Xiangben County. I don't know what position Zijing is interested in. Can you submit to it?"
Lu Su is thorough. I'm confused, it was agreed not to be promoted, why is such a big pie thrown over here.
Although the Tuntian Colonel is only responsible for the farming, he is also a real Colonel after all.
Even the lowest rank among the captains had a salary of only two thousand dan.
But Lu Su is not a person who is short of money. What he lacks is an official position, a family position, and an opportunity to display his talents.
Look who was the last person to serve as an agricultural school lieutenant?
That is Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong, a direct descendant of the Chen family, the number one family in Xuzhou, and the leader of the younger generation.
After Chen Deng became a Dian Nong captain, he immediately transferred to Liu Bei's state capital and served as one of the four chief officials, in charge of the promotion and demotion of officials in a state.
Lu Su only needs to follow the script and follow Chen Deng's footsteps step by step. Then there will be great achievements waiting for him. By then, at least Qianshi's status in his state and county will be stable.
The Lu family’s family status has soared.
Who will say that the Lu family is declining in the future?
Besides, the magistrate of Xiangben County is also a senior official of Qianshi and the head of a county. The county magistrate in the Han Dynasty had great power and was called a Bailihou. He could take charge of all affairs in the county.
If it were a peaceful time, with the Lu family's family status, the position of county magistrate would be a prominent eunuch position that the Lu family could never dream of.
To be fair, no matter which of these two positions they are, they are both beautiful positions with great room for development.
Before Lu Su came, he had thought about it, but based on his knowledge, he only thought about the magistrate and county lieutenant of a large county, or simply someone working in the state capital, Zuoshi .
He even considered seeking an important position next to Captain Diannong. After all, farming is a great accomplishment, and as long as he can join in, he will definitely gain a lot.
But now, Liu Bei directly slapped the captain of Diannong in his face, and also gave him a magistrate of Xiangben County to choose.
Lu Su's eyes were a little red, and he was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
This is not just words of emphasis, but real actions.
Either of these two positions can make outsiders break their heads. If Xuzhou had not been slaughtered by Cao Cao, the nobles would be in panic.
No one of these two appointments can be approved.
Even in the current situation, if Liu Bei wants to appoint Lu Su as the captain of Diannong School, the resistance will definitely be huge.
But Liu Bei didn't care and showed full confidence.
At this moment, Lu Su finally confirmed that Liu Bei really valued him and recognized his talents.
Nothing else, the cake is so delicious.
This high regard made Lu Su change his plan to hide his strength and bide his time when he came here, and first accumulate meritorious deeds by Liu Bei's side.
Lu Su left the banquet to pay homage and said from the bottom of his heart: "Su, I will do my best for the Lord. I will fight to the death to succeed in farming and increase grain and production for the Lord."
Liu Bei was overjoyed and stepped forward to help Lu Su with his own hands. For a moment, both the host and the guest were happy.
Afterwards, Liu Bei specially prepared a dinner to welcome Lu Su.
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Mi Zhu, Chen Deng, Jian Yong, Tian Yu, Zhao Yun, Cao Bao, Xu Dan and others were also invited to accompany him, giving Lu Zijing enough cards.
During the dinner, Liu Bei stroked Liu Feng's back and said to Liu Feng with emotion: "Fortunate to have my son, I am respected by my son."
Liu Feng was humble in his mouth, but in his heart But he smiled, where did he go?
Lu Su's greatest skill is not farming. He is new here and deliberately hides his clumsiness.
You don’t need to wait too long, it could be more than ten days or more than a month. Lu Su will definitely come to you to show off his grand strategy.
During the period of the First Three Kingdoms, there were only three and a half people in the world who could be called Wang Zuo's talents. According to Liu Feng, there were only three and a half.
Among them, Zhou Yu is half, but Lu Su is one.
Let’s see who are the remaining two?
The difference is between Xun Yu, the number two figure in Cao Cao's camp, and Ju Shou, the number two figure in Yuan Shao's camp.
The reason is very simple, that is, they all proposed a grand strategy for their masters, and formulated practical and detailed plans to complete this grand strategy, and they were able to successfully implement it, at least partially.
This is the true talent of Wang Zuo.
Brother Big Ear, just wait for Lu Su to bring you new surprises.
Let me tell you two things.
The first thing is that today’s second update will be very late, and I want to rush into next week’s weekly rankings.
The second thing is that tonight’s ranking is likely to be two consecutive updates.
The third thing is, if there are not two consecutive updates tonight, then there will be more updates tomorrow!
I hope all readers will support me, please read more, invest, vote monthly, and give me rewards. Thank you all!
