Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

"You shouldn't be in collusion with Miss Cai." Lu Su said angrily, "Why did she choose Wang Yi?"

"It's not too unexpected." Li You looked at the recommendation from Cai Yan and said to Lu Su.

"In this way, there is no need for a second round of selection, just Wang Yi." Jia Xu nodded and said, he is more optimistic about Lu Xun and Lu Yu, but these two are not yet ready to reach the top, and they Although the two are talented, they are too young after all.

"Then choose Wang Yi as the first name, and don't add an official." Chen Xi said to everyone after withholding the documents presented. After all, Wang Yi is now the master of Liubaishi, and Qianshi's official position is released. There are quite a few words, but here it needs to be adjusted.

After the end of the day, Chen Xi left early again, and the rankings of the Political Department had been released. Unlike the speechless situation of the Mathematical Department, Wang Yi's first place was not very secure.

But the better point is that none of the aristocratic families who came to refer to this time looked very good. Even the Xun family, a family that can make up twenty or thirty hundred miles of talents, did not win the top spot this time. Ke, the world's aristocratic family can only keep silent until now.

It’s not that the college students trained by Chen Xi have not passed the exam. To be precise, except for more than a dozen outstanding college students, none of them are even shortlisted. However, there is no way to do it. After all, the aristocratic family doesn’t care about food and clothing. At least I have been studying for ten years.

As for the college students trained by Chen Xi, most of them could not even read three years ago, and during the three years of school, they had to help the family with some farm work.

Children from poor families are not talking about being in charge of the family early. Even if their parents are willing to let them study, but when their parents are doing farm work, these teenagers will not be able to pass the hurdle of filial piety without helping them. The Han Dynasty was an era when filial piety was the rule.

To be honest, there can be a dozen shortlisted, even if the highest ranked ones are all after 50, Chen Xi is already very satisfied. If he can learn this level in three years, if he was born in a wealthy family and carefully trained, it is not at all possible for him to achieve a hundred miles. The problem.

This is a very good start, and there should be more and more in the future. As for the next fifty years, Chen Xi has nothing to do. After all, what the family monopolizes is knowledge. , It is not bad to have a good start.

Naturally, Chen Xi arranged positions for the ten short-listed students one by one. They were all small officials of Baishi. However, compared with those who entered the aristocratic family, Chen Xi paid a little more attention to these ten or so students. They were the first batch of scholars who formally entered the officialdom through scientific examinations.

"Patriarch, the Zhang Family in Xuzhou has a greeting card." Steward Chen took out a greeting card from the side and handed it to Chen Xi respectfully.

"The Zhang family in Xuzhou?" Chen Xi looked at the sky, and couldn't remember which family it was.

There is no way, there are many families surnamed Zhang who were prefects during the Three Kingdoms period, but because of this, these families surnamed Zhang, now because of the problem of the bank's own printing, it seems that the relationship between each family has some problems.

Although it is very likely that people with the same surname will be promoted to brothers for hundreds of years, and some families have a long history, and you can find out the original clan after a search, but now because of the printing issue, there is no way to get together. There is no way for the strong surname Zhang There were also several families in the late Han Dynasty.

"The person who sent the invitation said it was Zhang Hong, Zhang Zigang." Chen Butler said after a little thought.

"Oh, it turned out to be him." Chen Xi said in a little surprise. It is said that with Jiang Wan's ability, he must have said everything he could. own meaning.

"Nothing happened at home." Chen Xi asked after accepting the invitation.

"Second Miss Cai came to see the Second Madam, and she took back Heng Heng who ran back." Housekeeper Chen answered after picking out the events that happened throughout the day.

"Oh, I ran back again. Before Chen Qian grows up to chase the chicken and chase the dog, let him be fostered with Miss Cai Er first, and don't let it come back." Chen Xi said with some sighs. Always scary high.

Now that Chen Xi actually likes that little white dog, but Chen Lan and Chen Qian are not suitable for contact now, so they can only foster it in someone else's home.

It just so happens that Cai Zhenji’s son, well, is actually the son of Yang Yu’s ex-wife. He just grew up to the age of chasing chickens and dogs, so he was sent to Cai Zhenji’s house. After all, compared to other dogs, this dog is smart enough and good enough clean.

"I don't have any good solution for this. Heheng wants to come back, and there is no way to stop him." Uncle Chen said with a wry smile. Although Heheng can't fly yet, jumping over the wall is not difficult.

"It can understand human speech, you just need to say it a few more times, and do it a few more times." Chen Xi thinks so, most people can't beat that guy.

Steward Chen was speechless, but still nodded, expressing that he would do it. After all, he is an old man who has been with Chen Xi for several years, and he also knows the temperament of his patriarch.

The next morning, I slipped to the newly opened chicken breeding place outside Yecheng. It is said that this time there was a problem again just after the chicken was raised, and then I slaughtered it to make air-dried chicken before it was completely wiped out.

Anyway, as far as Chen Xi knows, after raising so many batches of chickens and dividing them into so many places, there are not many times when a complete circle of chickens can be successfully produced without accidents. If you keep them, you may get sick. Killed, all slaughtered.

So in the end, Chen Xi didn't consider the official large-scale raising of laying hens, and they all turned into dried meat as military rations. Chicken and fish are now the main meats for Liu Bei.

As for other edible meats, Chen Xi could tell that the government does not carry out large-scale farming, and it is impossible to sell them on a large scale in the market. Thinking of this, Chen Xi felt that it was really not easy for the government of the Han Dynasty. .

It is completely different from the era of abundant materials in later generations. In this era, there is nothing that can solve problems better than getting materials.

"Can you raise something else?" Chen Xi said helplessly to Chen Nuo, who was originally his own servant and was now appointed as Bo Cao's because of his extremely high breeding standards.

"Goose is more suitable, but we are short of seedlings here." Chen Nuo is also helpless, "As for the way of eating, many kinds have been developed, and we are short of seedlings."

"Pigs have almost been studied, and they are going to approve places for large-scale breeding." Chen Nuo continued, doing one thing full-time and willing to study, and now he can be regarded as a leader among his peers. It's a weird thing to do.

"Then you can continue. The Ma Zheng over there at Wenhe may still need you to take care of it." Chen Xi nodded. In the era of scarcity of supplies, everything needs a little accumulation. Many things that look very simple, even The technology is not built.

After telling these things, Chen Xi drove home, and went back to see the Zhang Hong who rejected them three times without hesitation back then, and now came to visit.

It was only a stick of incense for Chen Xi to come back. After changing his clothes, Zhang Hong came to visit the Chen family with his servants as soon as the time came.

Looking at Zhang Hong who was dressed in a black robe and stepped into the door, Chen Xi saw a flash of bitterness in the other party's calm eyes. Once upon a time, the other party invited him three times but couldn't enter his door. door to enter.

Zhang Hong also thought about the situation that it would be difficult for him to submit a letter of worship. After all, he had rejected Liu Bei three times back then, but Chen Xi didn't intend to stop him, but this behavior made Zhang Hong feel a little bit more. kind of shame.

The other party has already looked down on the past, but he still can't let go. Even if he voted for Sun Ce, he still can't let go of the three offers from the beginning.

"Zhang Hong of the Zhang family in Xuzhou, Zhang Zigang has met Patriarch Chen." Although Zhang Hong was old enough to be Chen Xi's father at his age, he could only be the first to greet him at this moment.

"Chen Xi, Chen Zichuan, please." Chen Xi bowed, and then made a gesture of please. He has passed the era of needing prefixes. When the world says Chen Xi, Chen Zichuan, he is referring to himself.

[Not as an official, but as the Zhang family. 】Chen Xi turned around calmly and led Zhang Hong into the outer room, which was neither negligent nor respectful. To be precise, meeting Zhang Hong in the outer room was the most correct welcome etiquette.

"You take the liberty to come here, and please don't give up, Chen Hou." After Zhang Hong drank a cup of tea, he carefully looked at Chen Xi. He didn't come here to discuss matters, but to fulfill his wish, and to see Chen Xi. Already satisfied, as for Liu Bei, may not be able to see.

"How can you call it presumptuous since you have already submitted the greeting card?" Chen Xi lowered his head slightly so that people could not see his eyes clearly, but he could feel his smile just by looking at his face, "I don't know that Zigang is here What's the matter?"

It was obvious that Chen Xi and Zhang Hong didn't have much to talk about, so they could only focus on the real thing. There was no way he and Zhang Hong didn't know each other at all.

"I came here with nothing to do, but now I have something to ask." Zhang Hong was silent for a while, and he also found that he and Chen Xi had nothing to talk about. It would be nice if he could come to see Chen Xi and fulfill his long-cherished wish. He hadn't thought of coming here before. There will be nothing to say when you come.

"Then please tell Zi Gang clearly, Xi, I will listen to you all the time." Chen Xi's words were not pleasant, on the contrary, there was some provocative meaning in it.

"After Yuan Gong returned to Yangzhou, he told us what he had seen and heard about the Northland. I wonder what Chen Hou intends?" Zhang Hong thought for a while and said.

"What's your intention? It's really nothing. It just depends on what the family wants to do." Chen Xi said with a smile, "There is no shortage of resourceful people in the world. Family, there will be no problems here."

While talking, Chen Xi pointed his finger at his head, "It's not what I want to do, but what the family will do. The family is also human, and people will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, so the family will make choices that seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. It's nature."

Zhang Hong was silent for a while, then nodded, "But, is Marquis Chen so confident?"

"Are you confident?" Chen Xi thought for a while, "It's really hard to say. All I can say is that the purpose of the aristocratic family is the same. Oh, no, it's a creature like a person. Individuals have different goals. Same, but collectively, their goals will be similar."

"As for the so-called enemy of the world's aristocratic family, I don't like to hear it anymore. Haven't you noticed that the support of you and Cao Mengde's aristocratic family is constantly decreasing?" Chen Xi looked at Zhang Hong with a smile and said .

"So, that is to say, the establishment of the bank has already been promised to the Chen family by the world's aristocratic family?" Zhang Hong lowered his head and said slowly, "That means we have been excluded from this group?"

"Probably so, but judging from the previous examinations of various subjects, Yongliang, Jing and Yiyang all participated, and the facts are probably self-evident." Chen Xi said with a smile.

Except for the aristocratic families tied to Sun Ce and Cao Cao's warships, the other aristocratic families had already become more cautious. Pang Degong had to wait for Pang Tong to pick him up in Jingzhou earlier, and even Jian Yong was quite indifferent when he invited the Huang family and Xu Shu.

It's just that he formed a good relationship with Xu Shu and sent Jiang Wan, the most accomplished under his command, to Liu Bei's command, but he himself sat firmly on the Diaoyutai without moving.

After the war between Yuan and Liu ended, the situation in the world became clearer, and after the word homology project started, Pang Degong appeared in Mount Tai because of a Confucian event, and Xun Shuang also appeared in Mount Tai. Chen Guang and Chen Shang also appeared one after another. The family is not stupid ah!

It's just that the bets that have already left can only be placed there, and the most basic integrity of the aristocratic family is still there. If the benefits are not large enough, they will not defect.

"So it's not me who betrayed the family, but you who betrayed the new family led by me, you are the rebels," Chen Xi said with a smile on his face, "Rebirth or destruction, in the increasingly clear situation, my It's the future."

Zhang Hong was speechless. Living in Yangzhou, he could feel the attitude of those Jiangdong families. Although those families lacked foresight, it was not something ordinary people could do to make all the families sway.

"So, the problem you mentioned is no longer a problem. It's not about what I want to do. It's up to you to ask yourself what you want to do. Why did you betray our class and follow Sun Ce and Cao Cao?" Chen Xi Slowly stood up and looked down at Zhang Zhao who was sitting there.

I used to be a traitor of the aristocratic family class, and countless aristocratic families glared at me, and even helped others to suppress myself as a traitor; later I became a reformer of the aristocratic family class, and other aristocratic families watched from afar, except for a few diehards Still insisting.

But now, Chen Xi can proudly say that the world's aristocratic families are headed by me, and they are against my way. If they conflict with my will, they are the betrayers of this class. The direction I am advancing is the most correct path for the aristocratic family. It's all gone!

At the beginning, Liu Bei used the recruiting order to recruit poor scholars. Jia Xu and Li You even relied on kidnapping to get them.

This is the way things are in the world, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind, but unfortunately, the once powerful family against Liu has become a powerful family supporting Liu, and the integrity of the family is nothing more than this.
