Xuande

Chapter 271
After returning, Naduo found his capable subordinates, discussed with them, explained Liu Bei's needs and some benefits he was willing to pay, and then took out the bag of salt for everyone to look at and taste.

The subordinates tasted the salt one by one, and they all expressed their surprise. They felt that the Han people were really good at technology. It was the first time they tasted this kind of salt with a different taste. How delicious is it in stew?
If this thing is sold, it is estimated that it can be sold at a very good price and can make a lot of money.

The Han Chinese have mastered these technologies, which is really amazing.

These people couldn't help being jealous.

If you can get the technology and sell the salt, wouldn't it be released?

After thinking about it, I was a little jealous, but there was something wrong with his strength, and Liu Bei was too good at fighting. He knew that this benefit was not something he could intervene, so if he intervened a little, the person who was waiting for him and Shao Dangqiang would probably be the Liangzhou Han The thunder strike of the army.

It would be an ugly death.

So after much deliberation, I still urge everyone to be more realistic and see if we can get some delicious salt from the Han army. Let's eat it first and then talk about it. If there is a market and want to make money, then think of a way.

The road is dead, the people are alive, and if the strength is not enough, it is necessary to find another way.

Naduo quickly reached an agreement, expressing to Guan Yu that they are willing to accept the proposal of the Liangzhou government. cause unhappiness in the future.

Guan Yu was satisfied with this, and soon sent someone to send the news back.

When the news of Guan Yu was delivered, it was also when the imperial court conveyed the appointment documents for Guan Yu and others to serve as prefects of the five counties.

For Liu Bei, this is really a double blessing.

Liu Hong and Zhang asked them to do just that, to take advantage of the benefits and do things for real, not to play tricks on you, as long as the benefits are enough, what they can do is beyond your imagination.

So Liu Bei immediately made a big splash and publicized this matter.

Guan Yu, as the prefect of Jincheng.

Zhang Fei served as the prefect of Longxi.

Dong Huang, served as the prefect of Wudu.

Xia Houyuan, served as the prefect of Beidi.

Xiahou Dun served as the prefect of Anding.

Liu Bei wants all the officials under his command to know that Liu Bei is a person with connections to the sky, and he is a person who can obtain real benefits for his subordinates. As long as Liu Bei does things for him, the benefits are indispensable.

It is true that a superior can choose his own subordinates, but for subordinates, choosing the right superior is also a skill, a very critical skill.

If you follow the right person, you can avoid detours of ten or twenty years.

If you follow the wrong person, your life will end in a flash.

And the fact that the five generals who fought with Liu Bei were able to serve as the prefects of the five counties fully proved that they followed the right people, so they avoided detours by an average of ten years.

None of these five people is over 30 years old.

The youngest, Dong Juan, was only 22 years old. Because he chose the right person and he was not afraid of death in battle, he was able to serve as the prefect of Erqianshi.

I don't know how many people are envious of Dong Juan's drooling.

Reporting Liu Bei's thigh, doesn't this mean that the future is not a dream?

The prefect of Erqianshi is the end point of many people who can be officials in their lives, but they never expected that following Liu Bei, this is actually the starting point for his prosperity.

Is there any reason?
At this moment, apart from Guan Yu who is still tossing around in Qinghai Lake, Dong Huang is still on his way back to the army, Zhang Fei, Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun have all returned to Ji County to rest, they have successfully completed their mission and are resting.

Then the great good news was smashed down in one go.

Zhang Fei hadn't realized why his small family had suddenly become the prefect of Two Thousand Stones. The happiness came so suddenly that he couldn't react.

Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun had certain psychological expectations about this. After all, they were from a family of officials. The position of prefect of two thousand stones was not an existence that broke through psychological expectations for this family. They had also come into contact with such an existence.

But as far as they were concerned, they were so excited that they became the prefect of Two Thousand Stones.

Still the same sentence, they really felt that they followed the right person and did the right thing, and they were pushed to the position of prefect of two thousand stones by Liu Bei when they were less than 30 years old!
They were so excited that they went to the State Shepherd's Mansion to express their gratitude to Liu Bei, showing their loyalty and paying respects with various big gifts, which made Liu Bei think that they came to ask for red envelopes for him during the New Year.

"You should thank you for your bravery and fearlessness. I will not promote a person without merit and ability for no reason. You have proved that you can do it with your actual actions. You are worthy of this position and status.

So, don't slack off, don't be complacent, rather than your words, I hope you will repay me with practical actions. If your actions don't satisfy me, I can remove this position at any time, do you understand? ? "

Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun blushed, and immediately told Liu Bei that they would sacrifice their lives to repay Liu Bei, and let Liu Bei know that he did not waste the number of nominations.

Two Xiahou almost jumped away from the state pastoral mansion, and then Zhang Fei came. He was quite cramped when he came, and looked at Liu Bei at a loss.

"Brother, I... can I really be a sheriff? That's a position of two thousand stones, can I really do it?"

"Why not? I think you can, the court thinks you can, everyone thinks you can, why do you doubt yourself?"

"But...but that's a position of two thousand stones!"

Zhang Fei's expression was a little dazed, and he said: "For generations in our family, no one has ever held the position of two thousand shi, maybe there is, I don't know, I... I suddenly became the prefect of two thousand shi, I... big brother , what will happen if my family and people know about it?"

Liu Bei smiled, stepped forward, held Zhang Fei's big face in his hands, put his face close to him, and stared into his eyes.

"You are the prefect of Longxi County I like, you are the prefect of Longxi County I choose, if I say you can, you can, no matter what your background is, no matter what your background is, if I say you can, you can, do you understand? ?”

"understand!"

Zhang Fei immediately regained his energy and stretched his body straight.

"I can!"

"very good!"

Liu Bei patted Zhang Fei's shoulder with a smile, and said slowly: "You need to know a lot to be a prefect, and you still have a lot of shortcomings. I will match you with some experienced and capable subordinates to help you govern Longxi County. Don't worry, read more, learn more, and you will be able to get started soon."

Zhang Fei nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"I'll do whatever my brother says!"

Liu Bei originally thought that Zhang Fei's performance was already very excited, but he didn't expect Dong Huang's performance to be even more excited.
When Dong Huang led the troops back from Longxi, he learned that he had been recommended by Liu Bei as the prefect of Wudu County, and suddenly became restless. He trotted all the way to the State Shepherd's Mansion, and when he saw Liu Bei, he burst into tears. It took me a while to stop crying.

"No one has ever valued me so much, and I never thought that I could be a prefect. You gave me this opportunity, you gave me everything, and your kindness to me is deeper than the sea! From then on, As long as you have an order, even if you bring 100 people to attack 1 people, Dong Juan will never hesitate!"

"I need you to make contributions to me, so I don't need you to die!"

Liu Bei patted Dong Juan on the head with a smile, and then put his arms around Dong Juan: "Did you forget? I promised you that if people in Liangzhou don't have to sleep with a knife in their hands, I can't do it alone. You have to help me too, this is our first step, and we still have a long way to go in the future."

Dong Huang nodded repeatedly, nodding while wiping away his tears, his nodding was more frequent than a chicken pecking at rice.
