Chapter 40

In the eyes of wealthy families, "chefs" are a relatively rare collection. After all, it would be embarrassing to have a banquet in the circle and not have one or two chefs at home.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, few chefs are in a state of "in the wild", and even Sun Jian cannot recruit them.

Perhaps the "Huofu" can be recruited, and the ability is incomparable to that of a chef. After all, Huofu is only good at knife skills and has no bonus in cooking. Huofu is still competent for making stew or foods with relatively high requirements for knife skills. If others say anything, it is no different from ordinary people.

As Sun Jian's old subordinate, Yuan Shu was actually trying to win over, such as sending chefs to cook food from time to time to see if they could corrupt them in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

However, every time I ate this delicious food, several old subordinates recalled that when they followed Sun Jian north to attack Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao commissioned a chef and three chefs to cook a big banquet and entertained the entire army in order to show off.

At that time, everyone felt that Yuan Shao showed off and the meal was uncomfortable. Sun Jian laughed and said, "Haha, since the leader of the alliance is entertaining me, I wish us a successful fight against the thief, so I have to have a good meal tonight!"

When Huang Gai and others heard this, they looked at each other and started to eat and drink.

Now that Yuan Shu treats guests, every time he eats, Sun Jian’s figure is in his mind, which can’t be corroded and will have the opposite effect.

Having said that, if Zhu Xin, as Sun Ce's fiancé, cooks a feast for everyone, perhaps the cohesion will be stronger. Huang Gai is also worried that if he continues, the few people in the army who are not strong in their concentration may be corrupted.

"Anyway, I can't go anywhere else this winter, and I can't do anything." Zhu Xin probably heard Huang Gai's meaning, "I'll collect ingredients these days, and then prepare a rich banquet."

In fact, what is more comfortable than eating hot pot in the middle of winter? However, hot pot has nothing to do with cooking skills, and may have something to do with knife skills. But what the hot guy can do cannot highlight his excellence.

It’s OK to have a hot pot first, but you still need to prepare a big meal, so you can’t be careless.

"Speaking of this, why did you call you back in the middle of winter?" Huang Gai also looked at Sun Ce. Sun Ce went to attack Chen Wen. Everyone knew this, but it was not clear if it was still called Sun Ce back in the middle of winter.

"Yuan Shu arranged for Lei Bo to go to Liyang to garrison. My team will probably return here to station after the beginning of spring." Sun Ce replied, "Before going to the battle at the same time, Yuan Shu promised to defeat Chen Wen and confer me as the prefect of Jiujiang, maybe..."

"Don't expect this. Yuan Shu must have appointed his confidants as the main one." Zhu Xin directly exposed Yuan Shu's thoughts. After all, if he remembered correctly, Yuan Shu appointed Chen Ji as the prefect of Jiujiang.

Later, Sun Ce helped him conquer Lujiang County, who also appointed Liu Xun as the prefect of Lujiang. These two actions made Sun Ce feel that it would be difficult to go out independently after normal procedures.

Then he took out the imperial seal, exchanged it for some troops and supplies, and killed it at Danyang County.

Even so, after conquering Danyang and Wujun, Yuan Shu still appointed his own people to serve as the prefect. Until Kuaiji County was conquered, Sun Ce took the initiative to serve as the prefect and did not give Yuan Shu the chance, and the latter agreed with this fact.

"How could she be without trust?" Sun Ce was a little disbelief when he heard this. After all, the three masters of the Yuan family, aren't they afraid of doing such a thing that is without trust?

"If I guessed correctly, she probably didn't make any promises and would definitely appoint you as the prefect of Jiujiang." Zhu Xin asked.

Sun Ce was stunned when he heard this. After thinking about it carefully, Yuan Shu did just promise that if she could defeat Chen Wen, she might be named the prefect of Jiujiang, but he did not say that she would be named.

It turned out that there was a language trap from the beginning, but I was so excited to attack Chen Wen!

"Remember, those who play politics generally have a dark heart and a thick-skinned face. Yuan Shu is actually fine. He is not dark enough and a thick-skinned face is not thick enough. As long as he finds his lifeline, he still has a chance." Zhu Xin reminded.

"I didn't expect Weishi to have such insights..." Huang Gai sighed. She was actually worried that Zhu Xin was addicted to cooking and could not become a good friend of Sun Ce. If necessary, she might as well find a more suitable partner for her.

It seems that Zhu Xin’s talent is not very clear now, but his vision is still good and worth observing for a while.

"Weishi, what should I do?" Sun Ce was a little panicked. She understood the war and was a little confused about politics. If you continue, wouldn't you want to work for Yuan Shubai for the rest of your life?

"You don't lack territory now, but you have enough supplies to support your soldiers and status!" Zhu Xin reminded.

"Weishi, now is the time to talk about serious business... marriage matters can be done at any time..." Sun Ce suddenly became shy, obviously the word "fame" gave her other ideas.

"Bo Fu, I mean identity, you are still white now!" Zhu Xin reminded.

Sun Ce gave Wu Cheng Hou to Sun Kuang, who is currently in vain. Not only does she have no civil service, but also no military service. What she urgently needs now is an "official position" recognized by the court. In this way, she will have a "famous position" in the future to conquer cities and territory.

Unfortunately, Yuan Shu has never given her any title since Sun Ce came to join her. She is not a military officer or a lieutenant, nothing is it!

"So what?" Sun Ce looked at Zhu Xin with some confusion.

"We need to make a total of the total, how to make Yuan Shu report to you to the court and ask for an official position. If you don't ask for a prefect or a county magistrate, you must at least have a lieutenant or a miscellaneous number, so you will be considered a title." Zhu Xin explained.

"What should I do?" Sun Ce made a tilted head and made a cute look. This thing was a bit difficult for her.

It would be great if everything could be decided in war, it would be simple and clear. If you win, you become the boss, and if you lose, you become the younger brother. But the political rules and regulations are deeply invisible, which really makes her unable to deal with.

"It seems that we really need to make up for it." Huang Gai sighed when he saw this. Sun Ce was too young, only nineteen years old. In order to be able to stand alone, he gave the ceremony in advance, but the essence of youth cannot be changed.

She had almost never been involved in politics and had been in the army since she was a child, so she still needed to accumulate things about politics.

In a sense, it is actually good to be under Yuan Shu for one or two years. You can understand the sinisterness of politics more and you will not be deceived in the future and you will also count the money.

Before I knew it, I spent a whole night. Considering that I had to see Yuan Shu the next day, I stopped halfway and asked Sun Ce to rest. Zhu Xin even made some refreshing food for her in the early morning of the next day.

"Do you know what to say?" Zhu Xin asked before Sun Ce left.

"It's okay to be at ease..." Sun Ce patted his chest, "Although he doesn't understand the political skills, he still has a good memory."
