Chapter 75 Where Is My Zhuge Liang?
75 Where is my Zhuge Liang
At noon on that day, Cao Yu met several people one after another and made arrangements for the subsequent related work one by one.
Because there are too many things, and most of the other party are novices, and his requirements are so different, he has to teach the other party step by step how to do, what to do first and then do, what to pay attention to, what the main contradiction is, what the secondary contradiction is, and so on.
very tired.
After the meeting, he leaned on the chair tiredly and rested with his eyes closed.
"I really have to find a capable helper, otherwise I will be exhausted."
He sighed softly and said silently in his heart.
In the future, his territory will become larger and larger, and his jurisdiction will be more and more, and there will be more things to deal with, such as national defense, agriculture, industry, education, diplomacy, trade, etc. Every aspect of work may be so busy that he is overwhelmed. If there is no suitable person to help him take charge of these affairs, he will sooner or later be destroyed by these things.
He really needs someone like Zhuge Liang!
But!
Where is his Zhuge Liang?
How could such a remote place as the southwestern border of Xizhou be reclusively living in seclusion? The true masters of governing the country are all in the areas of Zhongzhou and Dongzhou.
"It really doesn't work. One day I will go to Zhongzhou to have a chance." Cao Yu said secretly.
He was thinking in a mess, and the sound of light footsteps came in.
Um?
He was stunned.
That was the sound of plums' footsteps.
Mei Zi walked very lightly, she was not as enthusiastic as Luo. Due to her personality, she walked into the study from outside, like a kitten, silently. Even though Cao Yu's individual skills were very strong, she could be regarded as the top scout, but she could not detect Mei Zi's arrival unless it was very close.
But now, Cao Yu heard her footsteps, but at this time she was still three meters away from the door.
"It seems that magic can really improve people's physical fitness!"
Cao Yu was very surprised and thought silently in his heart.
Thinking of magic, Cao Yu had another headache, and this aspect of work also gave him a headache.
There is no doubt that he will do one thing as soon as possible, that is, to gather the best magicians in the world and form a magic research institute. But the question is, how can he gather the best talents? This is Chuzhou, which is located in a remote and relatively backward position. Will others come?
Moreover, now is the era of technology. He wants to restart the research on magic. How can he look like a liar? Will anyone believe him?
What a headache!
Cao Yu sighed secretly.
At this time, Meizi walked in.
"Masterman." She shouted, her voice soft.
"You are back." Cao Yu asked with a smile.
"Yeah." Meizi nodded. She walked over and looked at Cao Yu's tea cup. Seeing that it was almost gone, she made another cup of tea for Cao Yu. After that, she put away the books that Cao Yu had placed on the table and placed them on the bookshelf in different categories.
While doing this, she suddenly remembered something, stopped and turned to look at Cao Yu and said, "Oh, by the way, Dashang, someone came to ask for a meeting this morning, because you were discussing things with Director Meili at that time, so I asked him to wait in the lounge. When it was almost noon, he said he had something to do and wouldn't wait."
Hum? Cao Yu was stunned and then asked, "Did he say something is wrong with him?"
"I didn't say that, I asked him before, but he said he wanted to talk to the Grandmaster in person."
Cao Yu blinked. For some reason, he felt a vague feeling that the person might be the talent he needs most at the moment, so he hurriedly asked, "What does that guy look like?"
"I look like a government official, in his fifties, not tall, about 1.7 meters tall, fair and clean, with a very knowledgeable look, and every move is very steady. I think that guy must have been a high-ranking government official somewhere."
When Cao Yu heard this, he became even more excited and asked again: "Do you know where he lives? What's his name?"
His idea was to send someone to secretly complete the investigation of that guy as soon as possible, and it would be best to check all his ancestors for 18 generations. If his life experience is really innocent and his ability is really good, then he is really willing to visit him three times and invite him.
However, Meizi's answer disappointed him. Meizi said, "I only remember that his name is Kong Jun, but he didn't say what he lives in, and I forgot to ask."
Cao Yu was secretly disappointed when he heard this.
"Meizi, if someone who looks like a senior government official comes to me in the future, no matter what I am doing, you will tell me first."
"Okay, great man." Mei Zi nodded, then said, "Does the man who wants to find someone like the prime minister?"
"Yes." Cao Yu nodded: "We will have more and more affairs in the future. I will definitely be too busy to be busy alone, so I need to recruit someone who can handle these things. It is best to have served as the chief minister in any principality."
Mei Zi was stunned at first, and then suddenly realized the reason why Cao Yu had such an expression when she heard Kong Jun’s description. She immediately regretted it. If she had known that the general wanted to see Kong Jun so much, she would have to keep him no matter what, but why did she...
Mei Zi blamed herself: "Master, I'm sorry."
When she came to Chuzhou, she actually had great ambitions and wanted to become Cao Yu's right-hand man. Simply put, she wanted to become an important official in the Cao Yu Empire, but...
Luo came to find Cao Yu, just like Mei Zi, and was ambitious. He wanted to become a general and lead thousands of troops to fight in the east and west.
But the reality is too cruel.
Now, both of them knew that the goal at that time was too unrealistic. At their level, not to mention the prime minister and general, even a director and a regiment commander might not be able to take it down.
They may be such a person from other city lords, but they will never be able to be like that in Cao Yu!
Cao Yu’s requirements are too high, and they can’t meet them at all.
For example, Mei Zi herself, she wanted to help Cao Yu manage the territory, but there are so many things, such as education, agriculture, land, military industry, steel, shipbuilding, machinery, commerce, etc., none of them are good at!
Moreover, Cao Yu's requirements for management in each field are different from other city lords. For example, education, other city lords can build one or two academies to allow the children of rich people to study, but Cao Yu... He wants to let all the children go to school, and it also needs to be free. In addition, universities must be organized and various vocational colleges must be built!
She had no idea what to do to get this done.
So, just now, she and Luo had to readjust their positioning. She could only be Cao Yu's life secretary, while Luo could only be Cao Yu's personal guard.
But now Meizi suddenly realized that she couldn't do even a little bit of small things, and even the person the Grand Marshal needed could not keep him.
So, at this moment, she was really ashamed.
"Master, I'm sorry!" She apologized again.
Cao Yu turned his head and looked at Meizi. Meizi lowered her head at this time, looking very sad. She said, "I came here just to share the worries for the Grandmaster, but... I am still too stupid and can't do many things, let alone share the worries for the Grandmaster..." As she said that, she wanted to cry a little.
Cao Yu quickly stood up and wanted to comfort him, but before he could speak, Luo hurriedly walked in from outside: "Master, there is a man named Kong Jun outside, who said he wanted to invite Master to meet him."
When Cao Yu heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Take him to the reception room quickly, I'll come over immediately."
Mei Zi was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted. Her face was gone with sadness, her eyes were shiny, and her face was full of joy. The Grand Marshal was disappointed just now that he missed the guy named Kong Jun, and she also blamed herself secretly. She should find a way to keep her, or at least ask her address, or something. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the guy actually came again. The Grand Marshal's luck... is really amazing.
Sure enough, God will favor handsome men!
