I have to mention one person... Mr. Shui Jing, a famous scholar from Yingchuan.
This is a person who can be called a senior headhunter in the Three Kingdoms version. As long as he is there, Wei Cheng is equivalent to having a senior human resources director, and all the famous people in the world can be recruited under his command.
I have to say that Yingchuan is really talented!
Historically, Xun Yu introduced a large number of counselors to Cao Cao, while Xu Shu and Mr. Shui Jing introduced a group of counselors to Liu Bei, Liu Biao, Sun Jian and others, such as Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others.
Wei Qing was very ambitious. Since he got Xun Yu, it would not be too much to get Xu Shu and Mr. Shui Jing, Sima Hui.
"Husband, why are you so happy?"
After returning home, Cai Yan drank tea with Hao Niang in the yard. Wei Yan kept smiling after sitting down, obviously in a particularly good mood.
Hearing Cai Yan's curiosity, Wei Cheng smiled and said, "Does Yan'er know Sima Hui, a famous scholar in Yingchuan?"
Cai Yan nodded matter-of-factly, "Of course I recognize him. When I was studying under Master Confucius, I had the honor of being taught by Mr. Shui Jing and Mr. Pang De. Why did my husband suddenly ask me about him? Could it be that he has also come to Anyi?"
Seeing that Cai Yan was surprised and happy, Wei Cheng shook his head and said with a smile: "He's not coming, he's not coming, I'm just asking you, why, do you really want him to come?"
Cai Yan was a little disappointed and nodded in response: "Of course I hope that Mr. will come. My husband doesn't know that our Heluo College has sent people to invite Mr. several times. Unfortunately, Mr. didn't seem to want to be born. The last time we went to invite him,
I heard that he went to Jingzhou, probably to visit Duke Pang De."
Wei Cheng's heart moved.
I don’t know if Liu Biao invited Pang Degong, but even if Liu Biao went, Pang Degong would not be born. He would be a detached hermit who would rather farm with his family than serve as an official in the court.
I didn't expect that Mr. Shui Jing, Sima Hui, would also go to Jingzhou. Now that Jingzhou is in such chaos, I don't know if it will affect him.
Speaking of Jingzhou, Wei Cheng frowned slightly.
Liu Bei and Sun Jian suddenly jointly attacked Liu Biao, and someone was obviously behind it. Once the Sun-Liu alliance successfully captured Jingzhou, Yuan Shao and others would definitely not be able to sit still.
And without the Dong Alliance to check it, it would be equivalent to letting Lao Cao develop in Yanzhou... I felt very unhappy.
"Sigh, I don't know when Xun Yu will come back. Communication is indeed a big trouble in this era."
···
Chengdong Guards Station.
Xu Shu and Shi Tao were dressed in disguise, with a layer of stone powder painted on their faces. They looked very embarrassed, like refugees.
The two of them did not dare to register their new identities at the Chengnan Guard Station, but went all the way to the east of the city.
When I walked into the health center, I immediately saw a long queue of outsiders waiting to have their bamboo cards inspected and renew their bamboo plaques.
Xu Shu and Shi Tao exchanged glances. They lined up separately, not daring to crowd together, lest one person be exposed and implicate the other.
"This old man, judging from your accent, it seems that you are also from Yingchuan?"
Xu Shu didn't expect that the old man in front of him actually spoke with an accent from his hometown, and he couldn't help but feel happy.
The old man turned around and looked at Xu Shu. Seeing that he was in a sorry state, he frowned and said, "Don't stay close to me. Who is a fellow countryman with you?"
Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, lowered his head to look at the old man's clothes, his eyes fell on the waistband of the jade belt, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
The old man frowned and asked curiously: "Why are you shaking your head?"
Xu Shu sneered and said: "My former wife often ordered Li Yan, I should know him, right?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Since we are from the same hometown and are officials in the same dynasty, I will naturally recognize you."
Xu Shu pretended to be cautious, looked around, and whispered to the father-in-law: "I'm afraid I don't know yet. Just before noon, nine members of Li Yan's family were found dead at home. You guys Having served as an official in the same dynasty, I'd better be careful."
"ah?"
The old man was so frightened that he exclaimed. Seeing the strange looks from the city guards, the old man hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I met an old friend from the same hometown by chance and it was a whim. I didn't mean to make any noise."
The team member in charge of order glanced at Xu Shu and warned: "No making any noise in the guard house, you two, please be careful."
Xu Shu smiled in apology and said yes again and again.
Shi Tao, who was standing behind with a few people queuing up, saw this scene and secretly admired him in his heart. With the proof of his hometown identity, even if the bamboo sign was damaged, he would have an indirect guarantor. "Brother Yuan Zhi is really witty. Get a batch!”
Xu Shu chuckled. Seeing that his goal was achieved, he didn't bother to say anything to the old man. He didn't expect that the old man would turn back to him from time to time to inquire about information, making the two of them really familiar with each other.
It took about an hour to queue.
After watching my father-in-law and his family register, it was finally Xu Shu's turn.
"Famous Thorn Bamboo Brand."
"How come your bamboo sign is so badly damaged?"
Faced with the steward's question, Xu Shu explained calmly: "I had a good meal and slept in the open along the way. Maybe I bumped into something while camping in the mountains, so my name was scratched. I'd like to ask for your convenience."
The steward looked at the departing father-in-law and his family, frowned and said, "Aren't you together?"
Xu Shu hurriedly raised his hand and said to the father-in-law: "I'll see you later."
The father-in-law looked back at Xu Shu, wanting to complain, 'Are we familiar with you? I'll see you later!'
But his eyes fell on the steward, and he hurriedly smiled, cupped his hands, and said, "Okay, okay, see you later."
Xu Shu secretly felt happy in his heart. This was called a fox pretending to be a tiger. He had long discovered that the old man was a master who bullied the weak and feared the strong. He could just use it to help him prove his identity.
The manager didn't know that he was also being used by Xu Shu. Seeing that his father-in-law knew Xu Shu, he nodded and said, "As long as you have a fellow countryman as your guarantor, what's your name?"
Xu Shu bowed his hands and responded with a smile: "My name is Xu Shu."
The steward's hand holding the brush stopped in the air, he looked up at Xu Shu, frowned, and confirmed: "Which concubine?"
Xu Shu's heart skipped a beat. The steward's reaction was somewhat unpredictable, but it was here. He nodded and said, "Common people's common people."
When the steward heard this, he smiled slightly and nodded again. Then, he helped Xu Shu change a new bamboo card according to the procedure, and also entered it into the Bingzhou directory. From now on, there will be one more man named Xu Shu in the world.
"Here, take the Hsinchu card, don't damage it again... Next one."
Xu Shu took the bamboo sign and felt a gust of wind blowing. He felt a chill on his back. After touching it, he discovered that his back had been soaked with sweat for some time.
"Many, thank you!"
The steward looked up at Xu Shu, smiled, nodded and said, "You're welcome."
Xu Shu bowed his hands in a bow, feeling that he should not have been exposed, otherwise the manager would not have this attitude when talking to him.
Turn around and leave.
When passing by Shi Tao, he saw Shi Tao blinking at him. Obviously Shi Tao didn't expect it to be so smooth. When he also got the bamboo card, the two of them could leave the city smoothly. From then on, the sky is high and birds can fly.
.
Xu Shu nodded slightly and walked towards the door calmly, planning to wait for Shi Tao outside.
Just as he crossed the threshold, his vision suddenly went dark, and something like an iron tower blocked his way.
"Is your name Xu Shu?"
"..."
"Get in the car, the young master wants to see you."
