Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 329 What kind of gentleman is it?

  Wei Ji was originally trying to create a problem for Fei Qian, but he didn't expect it to be blocked by himself now.

  Wei Fu is an old man of the Wei family. Everyone has forgotten his original name. We only know that he changed his surname to Wei after the previous head of the family, and has been assisting the Wei family to manage the guards.

  Although Wei Fu didn't say a word of criticism when he came over, Wei Ke also knew that it represented a group of old guards who came to express their dissatisfaction.

   And this matter is quite difficult to deal with.

  It is obviously unrealistic to increase the monthly payment of the guards, but it is also not appropriate to reduce the monthly payment of nearly 500 people. Wei Ji doesn't want to make the Wei family bear a reputation for going back and forth because of these guards.

So in the end, Wei Ke could only claim to build an elite guard and let Wei Fu practice with his life. One was to make the money worthwhile as much as possible; It is also okay to tell the old guard who wants to participate; the third is to let these people retreat as much as possible, so as to control the number of people and reduce some pressure.

   But even so, follow-up problems still exist.

...

  Under the fast-spreading guiding ideology of the Wei family that "many people are stupid with money", a large number of idle idlers started to flow from various counties in Hedong County to Anyi...

   But the problem is that the Wei family simply cannot bear such a high price, and they have no intention of recruiting so many people, but after the Wei family lowered the monthly recruitment fee, Fei Qian's side unexpectedly also lowered it!

But something happened that Wei Feng couldn't understand. Many people who came from afar, after learning that the Wei family didn't recruit such high-priced guards at all, many of them directly turned to Fei Qian's recruiting team with an angry expression on their faces. place!

  Even if the price given by the guards of the Wei family is the same as that given by Fei Qian, it is useless...

   As a result, Fei Qian has recruited four to five hundred people in the past two days, and judging by this posture, there will be more people coming later!

   Wei Qie smiled instead of anger when he heard the words, and stroked his palms and said: "Wonderful! It's wonderful! Ninth Five-Year, withered poplars will bloom! Fei Qian Fei Ziyuan is really ingenious!"

   Wei Feng has never read the Book of Changes, so he naturally doesn't understand the meaning of the hexagram Wei Ke said, so he can only look at Wei Ke blankly.

  Wei Ke didn't have the intention to explain to Wei Feng either, and after pondering for a while, he said, "The recruiting place has been withdrawn."

   "Ah?" Wei Feng couldn't react for a while, and immediately bowed to the ground, "Wei! Follow the order of the Patriarch!"

When Wei Feng left, Wei Ji was still sitting in the hall, twirling the beard on his chin with his hands, thoughtful, it seemed that Fei Qianfei was so shrewd and refused to bow his head, so there was only one left road…

  ×××××××××××××

  Fei subconsciously tapped on the table and asked Jia Qu, "Liang Dao, what kind of person do you think Wei Bocuo of the Wei family is?"

  Jia Qu sat upright, and when he heard Fei Qian's question, he was silent for a while, and said, "He's a gentleman."

ha? Is this evaluation not bad!

  Fei Qian heard it very interesting, looked at Jia Qu's serious face, and said, "Oh? Then which gentleman is it? The Lord of Zhouyi? The Lord of State Style? The Lord of Yushu?"

  There is a saying in "Zhouyi#Qian Gua": "Nine three, a gentleman works all day long, and he is vigilant at night, without blame." This is a kind of gentleman.

   "Guofeng#Guanju" writes: "A gentle lady is a gentleman." This is also a kind of gentleman.

  "Yu Shu#Da Yumo" records: "The gentleman is in the field, and the villain is in power." Similarly, this is also a kind of gentleman.

  Jia Qu shook his head and said, "It's not true, but he is the king of Zhongni."

   "Lord Zhongni..." Fei Qian was a little surprised. Could it be that Wei Ke holds such a high status in Jia Qu's mind?

  However, Kong Zhongni and his disciples have many definitions and extensions of the gentleman. Jia Qu doesn’t know which one he refers to?

  Fei Qian tapped lightly on the table, frowned and said: "Zhongni has too many gentlemen, three virtues, three fears, three ways..." If you want to talk about each of them, how do you know which one you are referring to? Besides, is Wei Ke really so outstanding, kind, and simple, a collection of all kinds of virtues?

Give me a break.

  Jia Qu said the answer in a serious manner: "The king of four wrongs."

  The king of four wrongs?

  Kong Zhongni's four gentlemen?

   Fei Qian suddenly understood the meaning of Jia Qu's "Four No Gentlemen", and couldn't help laughing, somewhat satisfied with Jia Qu's observation ability.

  Yes, Fei Qian didn't believe that Wei Ke would just give up obediently like this.

  Huang Xu sent someone to send news that the Wei family in the south of the city stopped recruiting guards and even closed the stall...

  Hedong County Prime Minister Lu Chang also sent someone to inform that Fei Qian can buy grain and grass freely, and if anyone dares to stop him, he will be punished severely!

   Without Wei Ke nodding, Wei Feng would evacuate without authorization?

   Without Wei Ke notifying, Lu Chang would dare to make such a guarantee?

On the surface, it seems that Wei Ji gave in completely and no longer confronted Fei Qian head-on, but combined with Jia Qu's "four ungentlemen", Fei Qian believed that Wei Ji did not bow his head and admit defeat, and would no longer cause trouble, but rather I don't know what's wrong with holding back, and I'm ready to "do not act rashly, do not talk in vain, do not ask for anything, and do not act in vain"!

In fact, Jia Qu was also using this method to remind Fei Qian that before Wei Ke was on the bright side, he could see all his movements clearly, but now he was like a beast sneaking into the grass, hiding his figure, It is impossible to judge from which angle to pounce, it is even more dangerous...

   Fei Qian looked at Jia Qu, smiled slightly and said, "I don't know what Liang Dao can do?"

   Jia Qu glanced at Fei Qian expressionlessly, and said cleanly, "There is nothing to do."

   Hey, is it the wrong way to open it?

   Fei Qian muttered to himself, isn't that how all scripts are written?

When the lord asks about his subordinates, no matter what the intelligence value of the subordinate is, even someone like Zhang San, he can just say a word without even thinking about it—"My lord, I have upper and middle intelligence here." , The next three strategies are available..."

  Why is it my turn, so crunchy?

   "Is the envoy Fei trying to meet you? Do you want to ask?" Jia Qu met Fei Qian's suspicious eyes and said calmly, "If you want to try, there is nothing you can do. If you want to ask, you don't know who you are, how can you come to the temple?"

  This stubborn boy!

   Is it my fault to say so?

   Feiqian pondered for a while, then straightened his body, bowed his hands to Jia Qu, and said, "I hope Liang Dao will forgive me for being rude."

  Jia Qu quickly stood up, bowed to the ground, and returned the salute to Feiqian.

   After the salute, the two looked at each other and smiled, even if this festival was over.

After taking his seat again, Fei Qian held his fingers and said, "Now Du Wenzheng is taking two hundred soldiers to Beiqu to establish Wubao to contact the villagers; Huang Zichu has recruited nearly a thousand soldiers in the south of the city; Huang Shuye, Liang Dao, you too I saw it, and I am training here; there is another person, Cui Yongyuan, who is currently purchasing grain and grass, and has already purchased... well, nearly 300,000 stones..."

  As soon as the number was said, Jia Qu immediately looked sideways...

   Zhuge Liang said: "Zhongda, if I ask you for three things in the future, will you agree?"

   Sima Yi said with emotion: "But as far as the teaching power can reach, there is no one who does not obey orders."

He took out a small box from his bosom, opened the lid, took out three kits, handed them to Zhuge Liang, and said, "When I see these kits, I wish I could meet you. If you can't meet me in person, you can entrust Liaoyuan fire to pass on your life." I will do it for you too."

   Zhuge Liang said: "Thank you very much!"

   Received the kit and said, "Let me say the first wish first."

   Immediately returned the first kit to Sima Yi, saying: "If you and I are fighting and I sit in an empty city, you have to let me once..."
