After Xu Shu listened to Cao Zhang's words, he showed approval again.
Cao Zhang accurately analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of the world's heroes and made corresponding judgments and response strategies. These ideas coincided with the development strategies in his mind in many ways.
In Xu Shu's mind, he estimated that it would take at least twenty or even thirty years to unify the world.
Cao Zhang's ability to analyze thoroughly and be so calm and composed proves that he has made careful calculations long ago and is indeed worthy of being a hero.
"Since the young master has such confidence, let me ask the third question. The young master mentioned Sikong's move to recruit talents, so I would like to ask the young master, how do you recruit talents and how do you employ them?" Xu Shu raised the third question. Three questions.
After hearing Xu Shu's questions, Cao Zhang secretly admired him. This man was indeed very talented, and every question he asked was straight to the point.
Once we have the methods and determination to quell troubled times, we have to talk about how to recruit and employ people. This is the key to victory or defeat.
"When it comes to recruiting and employing people, I have only one idea: to recruit talents based on their talents, regardless of their background, and to demote talents regardless of their background! To be honest, the recruitment order issued by my father was exactly what I drafted, that is My method of employing people!" Cao Zhang gave his own response.
After listening to Cao Zhang's words, Xu Shu's eyes flashed.
After Cao Zhang found Xu's mother for the first time, Xu's mother asked someone to send him a letter, telling him Cao Zhang's idea of conquering him and telling Xu Shu not to come back.
Later, he heard that Cao Cao had reorganized the Yuedan Review, issued a recruitment order to recruit talents, and recruited talents in various ways.
Although Xu Shu was extremely filial, he also wanted to see what kind of talents would appear in the re-organized Yuedan Review, so he went to Xudu in disguise and watched the whole process of the Yuedan Review.
Cao Zhang produced two excellent poems in a row, which shocked Xu Shu and expressed his admiration for Cao Zhang's talent.
Later, Xu Shu heard that the wise men who had received high praise in the Yuedan Review had all received corresponding positions. Cao Cao was even more moved when he fulfilled his promise to recruit wise men.
After all, whether practicing martial arts or studying, Xu Shu also hopes to have the opportunity to join the Ming Dynasty and use his useful talents to achieve a great cause.
Although Cao Cao had misdeeds in the past, his status as emperor and Cao Zhang's talent still made Xu Shu want to serve.
So Xu Shu left Xudu and returned to Changsha to ask Cao Zhang what he had done to his mother.
Xu's mother said that Cao Zhang had always treated her with courtesy. Apart from coming to buy groceries on time, he never made excessive demands and was considered a modest gentleman.
After hearing this, Xu Shu truthfully told his mother what he saw and heard before and after Yuedan Ping, saying that Cao Zhang was different from the cruel Cao Cao his mother knew, and she planned to test him personally before making a decision.
After listening to Xu Shu's story and combining her impressions of Cao Zhang, Xu's mother agreed with Xu Shu's idea and let him decide whether to serve Cao Zhang on his own.
This is the scene where Xu Shu sells vegetables for his mother, waiting for Cao Zhang to appear and ask questions in person.
Now through a series of questions, Cao Zhang's vision, courage, knowledge, employment strategies and many other aspects have reached a level that convinced Xu Shu. This person is the master in his heart.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xu Shu knelt down and saluted Cao Zhang: "Young Master is far-sighted and has great ambitions. I am more polite to the virtuous corporal, but my condescension is in vain, which makes Xu Shu burst into tears of gratitude. Now I am willing to worship you and help you achieve great things!"
Cao Zhang was extremely happy when he saw Xu Shu kneeling before him and recognizing his master.
Although he has an understanding of the direction of history and the knowledge of later generations, the future conquest of the world and the management of the country will definitely require talents from this period to execute it.
He has a famous general like Xu Huang, and now he has conquered a top strategist like Xu Shu, which is definitely more powerful. It is a solid step for him to compete for the throne of the prince in the future, and even dominate the world.
Cao Zhang quickly approached Xu Shu and stretched out his hand to support him: "Yuan Zhi, please get up quickly."
Cao Zhang helped Xu Shu up and asked with some worry: "Yuan Zhi, your aunt will not have any objection to your decision today, right?"
Xu Shu hurriedly told Cao Zhang the agreement he had made with his mother, and asked him not to worry. Cao Zhang felt relieved.
"Yuanzhi, after all, my aunt is very old, and living with your brother in the countryside has many inconveniences. You can't always be in front of me to fulfill your filial piety."
"How about this? I will arrange a place for you in Xudu City. You can take your aunt and your brother to live with you so that you can take care of them at any time. What do you think?"
Cao Zhang's arrangement was not only to eliminate Xu Shu's concerns, but also to prevent others from scheming against Xu's mother in the future.
"Young Master loves me so much, Xu Shu is grateful. Everything will be subject to Young Master's arrangements." Xu Shu agreed immediately, and then said, "But I hope Young Master can give me a few days to report back to the house."
"That's natural. It will definitely take time for you to settle down your family and hire carriages and horses to take your aunt to Xudu." Cao Zhang nodded in understanding.
Then, he said to Xiahou Ba beside him: "Zhong Quan, give Yuan Zhi some money. He will definitely need a lot of expenditure to arrange everything."
Xiahou Ba agreed and took out the money bag and handed it to Xu Shu: "Take it."
Xu Shu quickly waved his hands and declined: "Young Master has misunderstood. Xu Shu wants time not to settle down in the family, but to invite an old friend to serve the Young Master together as a meeting gift to repay the Young Master's service."
Cao Zhang was overjoyed when he heard that Xu Shu wanted to recommend someone for him. This was a buy-one-get-one-free offer, an unexpected surprise.
"Who is Yuan Zhi going to recommend to me?" Cao Zhang asked.
Xu Shu said: "Reporting to the young master, this person is a good friend I met when I was a ranger. He lives in Chengshi County, Jiyin County, and his surname is Li and his given name is Jiji."
Li Jin? From Chengshi County?
Cao Zhang searched for this name in his memory bank, suddenly woke up, and asked: "Yuan Zhi, is this person the one who led the local warriors to defeat Lu Bu a few years ago?!"
"Yes, it's this person." Xu Shu responded quickly.
After Cao Zhang received Xu Shu's affirmative answer, an excited smile appeared on his face.
Li Jin is a very mysterious figure in the history of the Three Kingdoms.
In "Three Kingdoms, Book of Wei, Chronicle of Emperor Wu" and "Zizhi Tongjian", there are records about him leading the country to defeat Lu Bu.
But other than that, he disappeared. It is unknown whether he died in the rebellion or died of illness. In short, no relevant records can be found.
Now Xu Shu wants to recommend him to him. This is a huge gift. After all, this is a ruthless man who once defeated Lu Bu!
If he can be assisted by such a ruthless person, his strength will be further strengthened, and he will definitely perform better in the hunting competition in the next few days.
Cao Zhang signaled his entourage to lead a horse to Xu Shu: "That's very good. Then Lao Yuanzhi will ask Brother Li to come. As for the aunt and your brother, I will arrange for people to take them to Xudu and settle them properly." !”
Xu Shu saw Cao Zhang's eagerness for talents, and did not dare to delay at all. He immediately said: "In this case, I will set off immediately. Please wait for the good news in Xudu!"
After Xu Shu finished speaking, he got on his horse and galloped away into the distance.
Cao Zhang looked at Xu Shu walking away with a happy smile on his face...
