Chapter 254: It is better to send generals than to excite generals

What about the next one? How could you be chosen so easily?

While Yan Fang's mind was still dazed, Lu Sanlang had already begun to announce the next candidate in a hurry. He was from the same accounting background as Yan Fang. His boss was framed and lost his property. He didn't know how to cater to newcomers.

The boss, plus being hated by some shopkeepers, was kicked out and tried to take the civil service examination but was squeezed out by people with backgrounds - of course, that was before Wang Jie became the governor of Shuntian Prefecture.

In addition to these resumes, Lu Sanlang also emphasized people's outstanding abilities and good conduct. There is no doubt that his second candidate once again received Zhang Shou's nod of approval. And then, he who stole the limelight let

Qi Liang came forward to introduce the remaining two people on the first batch of the big list.

The two candidates Qi Liang mentioned were the so-called newcomers in his previous plan of using the old to lead the new - in fact, they are not new at all. Compared with his and Deng Xiaodai's ages, these two are in their early twenties.

, were born as scholars, and doing sutra calculation was just their hobby. As for their talent, it goes without saying that they were able to get into Jiuzhangtang and persist in the rapid teaching progress of Jiuzhangtang.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Sanlang and Qi Liang took turns to introduce the next batch, the third batch, and the fourth batch. Taking advantage of the time spent watching the theater in Ge Mansion, he and Qi Liang took out a total of

A roster of sixteen people.

Zhang Shou had already expected such a result. Lu Sanlang was a top-notch shrewd man, and Qi Liang, although he was born in a rural area and was less experienced, was also serious and careful, and they complemented each other perfectly. Just look at the list they discussed.

, he knew that under Wang Jie's hands, these people would be able to make the best use of their talents and people.

At that moment, he nodded with a smile and said: "This list is well chosen. It seems that I don't need to say anything more. Speaking of which, Lu Sanlang, Xiao Qi and Xiao Deng have all gone. You, the head of Jiuzhangtang, don't want to

Are you going to help Wang Dayin?"

I don’t want to serve that black-faced boss! With such a difficult-to-serve boss, I will definitely be drilled to death all day long, but it is often thankless. Maybe I will have to think hard about how to deal with those local snakes...

…I won’t do it!

Lu Sanlang thought so in his heart, but a very sincere smile appeared on his face: "Teacher, as the chief of the village, I am of course willing to take everyone with me, but I am the son of the minister after all, so I shouldn't compete with others for this

This kind of opportunity, for them, is a turning point in life. Besides, you also need helpers around you, right? Xiao Qi and I have gone, what should we do with Jiuzhangtang?"

Exaggerated! Hypocritical! Shameless! Zhang Chen cursed the pretentious Lu Sanlang in his heart. However, when he saw that many of the Jiuzhangtang supervisors around and behind Lu Sanlang were moved, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Living.

Can you win people's hearts with just a few words? These guys are too easy to deceive!

Compared with Zhang Chen, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu looked at each other. The two brothers felt that even though they had attached great importance to Lu Sanlang in the past, this kind of attention was not enough! If nothing else, Zhang Chen and the two of them added

Come on, the influence in Banshan Hall is definitely not as high as that of Lu Sanlang! This is certainly because the disciples of Guijie in Banshan Hall are not easy to deceive, but do they care about others as much as Lu Sanlang?

Of course, Zhang Shou would not be casually moved by Lu Sanlang. He laughed when he heard this: "Your humility to give up opportunities is very valuable, but you have to know that this is not only an opportunity, but also experience. Even if Wang Dayin goes to Xuanda University this time,

Maybe everyone in Jiuzhangtang can't take turns to go there for practical study, but I also plan to find some other opportunities for you to practice. So..."

Zhang Shou dragged his voice for a long time and then said with a smile: "Xiao Deng is directly subordinate to Wang Dayin. He does not belong to Jiuzhangtang. As for the four groups of people who went to Jiuzhangtang, Lu Sanlang, as the chief of the restaurant, you must

At least lead the team once, otherwise others will laugh at you in the future because you only know how to talk on paper? Needless to say, you will lead the third team later, and that's it."

I don’t want to! Lu Sanlang suddenly wailed in his heart. Even if he didn’t go to the muddy water in the first place, he really didn’t want to leave the comfort of the capital! He could make money, think hard about calculations, and enjoy

To see people who once despised him are often surprised and happy, wouldn't that be much better than following Wang Datou to charge into battle?

However, under Zhang Shou's glare, the little fat man still lowered his head in aggrieved manner. But when Zhang Shou turned to look at Zhang Chen and others, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu were fine, but Zhang Chen said

Looking at himself with gloating eyes, he was immediately itchy with hatred. He couldn't help but think about how he would trick this guy Zhang Chen next!

Want to see my jokes? How can they be so cheap!

Zhang Shou saw that Zhang Chen instinctively sat upright under his gaze, as did Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu. He couldn't help but think of the first time the trio came to Cuiyunjian. Although it was just a small group

Half a year, but that incident seemed a long time ago. He coughed slightly, and then asked: "Zhang Wu, Zhang Lu, do you have any plans to go to Xingtai?"

Why did the young gentleman ask this? Although it was indeed surprising that the emperor asked them to go to Xingtai, hadn't we discussed with them the promotion plan before? Lu Sanlang was also present at that time! Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu were almost at the same time

Such an idea came to their mind, but when they saw Lu Sanlang winking at them, they couldn't help but wake up immediately.

At that moment, Zhang Wu apologized and said with a smile: "The incident happened suddenly, and we were not prepared... Moreover, the eldest prince went to Cangzhou and we went to Xingtai. It sounded like fighting with him in the ring, so we didn't feel confident. The emperor is

We can ask whoever we want, but we don't know who is more capable, and we are not sure that others will listen to us."

When Zhang Shou saw that Zhang Wu was deliberately pretending not to understand anything, he looked at the other people in Banshan Hall with a smile and said, "Which of you is willing to help Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu?"

As soon as he said this, a group of noble disciples who had surrounded Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu after Lu Chan conveyed the appointment, hoping to be led out, immediately became commotion. After a while, someone stepped forward.

And debuted: "Little sir, my mother is from Xingtai, I think I can help!"

I recognized that this was Hu Kai, an inconspicuous supervisor in Banshan Hall. As for his grandfather, he was quite famous. He was Hu Shilang of the Ministry of Revenue and the deputy of Chen Shang, Ge Yong's student.

At that moment, Zhang Shou asked with great interest: "Oh, so you want to use the township party to help Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu. Tell me, what are your specific ideas?"

Hu Kai was stunned when he heard the specific idea. He only thought of the advantage that his mother was from Xingtai. How could he have any idea?

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel that Zhang Shou's smiling eyes were a bit sharp. After a while, he stumbled and said: "I think that when Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu arrived in Xingtai, they should first convince the local officials and then fight with the local gentry.

Good relationship..."

Although he racked his brains, he could only come up with a top-down promotion plan. Seeing Zhang Shou finally gestured for him to sit down without comment, he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. With his example of failure, other people who tried to take the initiative could not help but rack their brains.

There were far fewer people asking for help. Even if someone came forward, they were defeated by Zhang Shou's unhurried questions.

However, in the end, Zhang Shou smiled and nodded to Hu Kai and another person who was talking reasonably, Zou Mingyu, the nephew of Taipusiqing, and ordered them to follow and help Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu. But when they were ecstatic,

, but he poured a basin of cold water on them again.

"The so-called plan you just came up with was probably just a slap in the face, and there is no feasibility. Previously in Ge Mansion, Teacher Ge was very pleased that his disciples could contribute to the country at such a young age, and he promised to recommend a few useful ones.

People, by the way, ask the disciples to take care of you, so that you, who are going out to do business for the first time, will not become blind."

As soon as these words came out, Hu Kai and Zou Mingyu's last bit of dissatisfaction was immediately thrown into the Java Kingdom. Offending the teacher might just mean that they were unable to move in the middle of the mountain hall, but if the founder Ge Yong felt that their two disciples were incompetent, it would really affect the whole world in the future.

It’s hard to move forward in official circles! Therefore, the two of them quickly agreed without saying a word, and then sat down properly.

And Zhang Shou had just made a big cake for the other supervisors in Jiuzhang Hall. Now facing more supervisors in Banshan Hall who were looking forward to impressing their families and friends, he naturally encouraged them and at the same time promised that he would

There are other opportunities.

In the past, some people would have thought he was just a hollow dumpling.

However, tonight I was brought to the former Luwang Villa. Countless dignitaries secretly coveted the mansion but did not dare to make a decision because of the emperor. They also saw that this place without any servants was as warm as spring.

There was a fire burning on the table, and there was water in the teapot and water vat. It was as if the master was still there. Most of the supervisors' awe for Zhang Shou suddenly deepened.

Therefore, seeing that the night was getting darker and Zhang Shou had finished speaking, people naturally started to say goodbye one after another. But this time, Zhang Shou took the initiative to ask people to bring the supervisors from Jiuzhang Hall with them. So one of them brought two

Three, in a moment, the untitled hall, which was bustling just now, gradually seemed empty.

Lu Sanlang finally waited until everyone else had left. Seeing Zhang Chen still sitting there silently, he smiled and said: "Zhang Chen, I didn't expect you to be so honest today. Why don't you say anything? You...

Banshan Hall’s chief doesn’t set an example!”

"If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!" Zhang Chen slapped the armrest and stood up angrily, but said to Zhang Shou with a cold face, "Little sir, I am not as thoughtful as Lu San and Qi Liang, and before

I don’t know much about the textile machinery, so I can’t come up with any good ideas. Just discuss this matter with Zhang Wu, Zhang Lu and the others, and I’ll take my leave!”

Seeing Zhang Chen cupping his hands and just turning around and walking out, Zhang Shou gently knocked on the handrail and then shouted: "If you just leave like this, do you believe it will change tomorrow?"

Will you spread the word everywhere that you, the chief of Banshan Hall, are not as good as him, the chief of Jiuzhang Hall?"

Zhang Chen stopped immediately, but still said firmly without looking back: "If he wants to talk nonsense, he can do whatever he wants!"

Lu Sanlang was about to continue to open his losses, but he saw Zhang Shou glance at him sideways, and then reluctantly closed his mouth. In the early years, it was Zhang Chen who bullied him because of his status as the only son of the Duke of Qin. Now he

After finally relying on wisdom to restore the situation, why should we let Zhang Chen do it?

After stopping Lu Sanlang from further escalating the situation, Zhang Shou said calmly: "Before, I asked Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu to open a weaving and dyeing workshop, and they also asked Lu Sanlang to take over the matter.

It's just you and Zhu Er who didn't interfere."

Seeing that Zhang Shou finally noticed him, Zhu Er suddenly said resentfully: "Finally you remember me... After all, we will all be a family in the future. Can you not be so unfavorable to one?"

"This is not about favoring one over another. I thought of killing someone who was easily taken advantage of, but I didn't expect that I actually attracted a bold second prince, and then attracted an insatiable eldest prince. A new textile machine, two whole people were trapped in it.

He is a prince with the highest rank, so now that I think about it, it was right not to let you and Zhu Er go into troubled waters, Zhang Chen."

Zhang Chen suddenly turned around with a dark expression on his face: "Why, do you think I'm timid?"

"No, at first I just thought that you and Zhu Er were not short of money." Zhang Shou said with a smile. When Zhu Er opened his mouth, he almost cried and complained that he was short of money, while Zhang Chen was full of laughter.

With a face of disbelief, he said calmly, "Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu will only have the share of their family's property in the future. They may have to live off their daughter-in-law's dowry, so they will naturally be short of money."

"As for Lu Sanlang, his father doesn't like him, and his mother can't give him all the family property. Moreover, he is engaged and waiting to marry a wife. Of course, he also needs money. However, he has the most private money among you.

He is a big business owner and a well-known prodigal son who turned around and turned into a genius. I need his money and his efforts, so of course I have to recruit him."

Hearing Zhang Shou's outspoken words, Zhang Chen's face immediately softened a little, but he still said stiffly: "Does that mean that if I can't contribute money and effort, I'm of no use?"

"At least until the textile machine blueprint is presented to the emperor, you will indeed be of no use."

Seeing that Zhang Chen's face suddenly turned the color of a pot, Zhang Shou chuckled and said: "Can you use the excuse to please the princess and the princess's wife to open a weaving and dyeing workshop? Or can you smile and pay a high price?"

A group of spinners came over to do work? Or were they like Lu Sanlang who brazenly deceived the eldest prince that he made this new spinning machine and tempted people to spend a lot of money to buy it? "

"Zhang Chen, you are a proud but righteous person at heart. You can't do what they can do. So, I don't know whether the decision to ask Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu to go to Xingtai to promote textile machinery was recommended by others, or whether

The emperor decides for himself. But in my opinion, this matter is more suitable for you to do, because only those who dare to expose the cover of Linhai Camp can deal with those wealthy families!"

Zhang Chen's gloomy face cleared up little by little, but he still couldn't help but said: "But now the emperor has chosen Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu... Even if I, Zhang Chen, have no future, I will not be with them."

Grab an errand!"

Seeing that Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu were not angry because he had underestimated them in his words, Zhang Shou nodded to them, and then said with a smile: "There is a way to build plank roads openly and cross Chencang secretly. Don't you think they are very good at it?"
