Chapter 49: Greeting Barefoot?

After Lu Yan, Guo Jia and Zhao Yun left,

All the government affairs of Chenliu County were handed over to Mao Jie and Ren Jun. They had recently recruited some grassroots officials, and the work at hand was actually not too heavy.

Military defense and the like are now solely responsible for the ban.

Dian Wei is temporarily responsible for the security of Chenliu County. Wherever he appears, the crime rate will definitely drop sharply.

Since the north is now in alliance with Yuan Shao, and the south and east are its own territory, Chenliu County now only needs to defend the west.

However, Luoyang to the west was in ruins, so Chen Liu basically had no military pressure anymore, which was one of the reasons why Lu Yan left with confidence.

Yanzhou Prefecture, Juancheng, in Boss Cao's bedroom.

When he woke up early in the morning, Boss Cao felt refreshed and said to himself: "Today is another happy day, so I must work hard!"

Cao Cao is in high spirits recently when happy events happen.

Originally, when he heard that Yuan Shu was attacking, Cao Cao was mentally prepared to suffer a loss of blood.

Who knew that guy Lu Yan from Chenliu County?

Not only did he lead Chenliu soldiers to block Yuan Shu from Chenliu County,

He even defeated Yuan Shu and even occupied Yingchuan County!

Whenever Cao Cao thought about this, he felt quite smug and carried away himself. At this moment, he was still muttering to himself:

"Mr. Lu always brings surprises to me. I, Cao Mengde, am really the one who has been destined by fate? Hahaha!"

While Cao Cao laughed, he took out the Tiandao diary notebook from under his pillow and prepared to update the diary of the previous two days.

Look, he doesn’t update Lu Yan’s diary every day. Isn’t this considered bloated? This must be bloated!

Just when Boss Cao had just opened the cover of the diary less than halfway,

Suddenly a servant came to report outside the door.

"The head of the family, Lu Yan, Zhao Yun, Xi Zhong, and Guo Jia are here to visit!"

I heard that these four people came to visit together,

The diary in Cao Cao's hand almost fell to the ground.

He was even more trembling in his heart, and thought to himself: "Why are these four people here together? Could it be that something big happened?"

Not daring to be negligent, and even in a hurry, Cao Cao didn't even wear shoes or coat.

Just wearing a fur cloak,

Rushed out of the bedroom!

This is late autumn,

Cao Cao actually couldn't feel the cold hands and feet at all, because now he just wanted to know what happened!

Lu Yan and the others had just sat down in the hall.

Cao Cao suddenly rushed in with his hair disheveled and barefoot and undressed.

The scene was extremely embarrassing for a while...

Lu Yan and others looked at Cao Cao in shock, and Cao Cao also looked at Lu Yan and others in utter embarrassment...

"Looking at their situation, it doesn't seem like something big has happened?" Cao Cao thought, "What should I do? I'm really embarrassed by this..."

Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao in disbelief, wondering how could Boss Cao be so frivolous?

Lu Yan saw the embarrassment in Cao Cao's eyes,

So after pretending to cough twice, he stood up and raised his hands to Cao Cao and said, "Cao Cao unexpectedly greeted me barefoot. How frightening!"

Only then did Xi Zhicai and the others recover from the shock. Regardless of whether Cao Cao really wanted to greet them barefoot, he handed the ladder to the boss's feet first...

The ladder reached his feet, and Cao Cao naturally stepped down.

But when Cao Cao saw the unfamiliar person among the four,

His mind couldn't help but change again,

Then he ran up to Guo Jia, grabbed Guo Jia's hand, and said in an extremely emotional tone:

"Fengxiao, Fengxiao, I hope for the stars and the moon, I finally hope for you!"

The smile on Guo Jia's face was a little stiff at first, but was immediately replaced by a look of touch and excitement.

Although Yuan Shao also recruited him before, compared with the extreme importance that Boss Cao places on him in "barefoot greeting" and "looking forward to the stars and the moon", it's like one is underground and the other is in heaven!

Guo Jia gently broke away from Cao Cao's hand, then took two steps back, bowed deeply and said, "Jia, how can you be so virtuous, how dare you let Mr. Cao treat you so favorably?!"

"If God had not given birth to me, Guo Fengxiao, I would have been searching for ways forever like a long night!"

Cao Cao's words made Guo Jia blush.

Just when he wanted to say that this was just a joke between Lu Yan and himself,

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao stepped forward to help him up and said very solemnly: "You are the first person to be evaluated like this by Mr. Lu!"

"Mr. Lu?"

Guo Jia slowly turned his head and looked at Lu Yan,

"Being called sir by Cao Cao? I remember Zhicai and Zilong. Sometimes they call him sir, right? What's going on?"

Guo Jia didn’t realize until now,

The Lu Yan who hooked up with him and skipped work to go to restaurants,

It seems to have an immeasurable weight in the hearts of Cao Cao and the other two!

"Mr. Tao is proficient in all things literary, military, and military, and his ability to recognize people is unparalleled in the world." Xi Zhicai actually stood up and praised Lu Yan fiercely.

After Xi Zhicai finished his praise,

As Lu Yan's most caring person, Zhao Yun was naturally unwilling to lag behind.

"Sir, he is not interested in fame, wealth, and glory. He only considers it his duty to seek peace for the people of the world. He has a broad mind that is rare in the world!"

Lu Yan was still a little confused now and thought to himself:

"Aren't you here to criticize Lao Cao? Why did it suddenly turn into a praise meeting for me?

This is too sudden!

It makes people feel embarrassed..." Naturally, no one can hear Lu Yan's voice, otherwise they will definitely slap him in the face.

The compliments from everyone made Lu Yan blush just after hearing these few words.

He quickly raised his hands and said to these gentlemen: "Thank you for your generous praise. I'm afraid!"

Guo Jia looked at Lu Yan blankly,

Until now,

Only then did he understand why Lu Yan could "cover the sky with one hand" and be "unscrupulous" in Chenliu County.

"So, you are like this Lu Changsheng!"

Cao Cao saw that his embarrassment had almost gone away,

So finally, with an uneasy feeling, he asked Lu Yan about the purpose of the four of them coming here: "You four came together, is something big going to happen?"

"Oh, so Boss Cao hurried out to see us because he was worried about something big happening?" Lu Yan finally understood what Boss Cao meant.

However, Lu Yan took a sneak peek at Guo Jia and found that the guy was still immersed in the grand reception of "barefoot greeting", and even tended to get deeper and deeper...

Then let him sink for a while,

Lu Yan had no intention of waking Guo Jia, he just talked about some of his reasons for coming here.

"Mr. Cao, in the battle of Yingchuan, more than 8,000 soldiers from Chenliu County were killed and injured, and nearly 10,000 people were disabled..." Lu Yan said here, his tone became serious, "Yan wants to ask for more pensions for them.

Especially those brothers who died..."

In fact, during the Three Kingdoms period, all forces realized the importance of preferential care policies for soldiers.

Taking Wei as an example, in addition to paying a burial fee and pension to the families of soldiers who died in battle,

If there were no heirs during his lifetime, he would find an adoptive one from his relatives or clan to continue the legacy of the soldiers who died in battle.

If there is really no one who can adopt the deceased, a temple will be built for them based on the merits of those who died in the war for everyone to worship.

However, regulations are just regulations after all,

Although some regulations can come out of documents, most of the time they can only stay in documents.

During the Three Kingdoms period, there were successive conquests and countless casualties were suffered.

These seemingly generous pension policies are still very difficult to implement.

The main problem is that it costs too much.

In this era when many living people are starving,

How much real respect can the dead get?
