Chapter 84: Negligence and Real Needs... (Part 2)
Early the next morning, Wang Dafu came out of the city lord's mansion with a refreshing spirit. According to the plan he had already thought of, he enjoyed the bright morning light of Green Willow City and walked towards the secluded hut of Zhang Liang, the "Sage of the Sage".
When visiting Zhang Liang, the biggest idea is to ask him to come out to help. This is one of Wang Dafu’s main tasks during this period. For so long, others have gradually become familiar with Wang Dafu’s style of conduct. At this time, if a planner with different styles but more skillful methods suddenly appears, how much "surprise" will bring to others, Wang Dafu himself will be excited!
Of course, this does not mean that Wang Dafu has any plans to "fight for the world" or something, but it is just to be prepared and be able to play more freely.
Of course, it is impossible to achieve any breakthrough results in such a casual visit. In fact, Wang Dafu and Zhang Liang were just chatting casually, and there was no topic of asking Zhang Liang to come out. However, the fat man explained some of the things that happened during this period to the "State of the Sage" one by one, and then asked "State of the Sage" to talk about his views.
Zhang Liang did not refuse. In fact, as one of the earliest veterans who came to Green Willow City as early as the first-level village stage, he saw every step of the development of Green Willow City, so his relationship with Wang Dafu and Green Willow City was far closer than others imagined.
After receiving Zhang Liang's guidance, Wang Dafu's originally somewhat vague ideas suddenly became clear, and he had a clearer outline of the future development of Green Willow City, and he also had a clearer understanding of some forms of the Eastern Continent.
It was not until the end that Wang Dafu asked in a very obscure way whether Zhang Liang could be out of the mountain. However, facing the fat man's hint, "Seeking the Saint" was just a mysterious smile without saying anything, and did not make any obvious statement...
I don’t know if it’s an illusion. Wang Dafu always felt that Zhang Liang’s faint smile was like a person he was very familiar with, but he just didn’t remember who it was, Tao Zhu, the "Shang Zu"? It should be him. Only those who are the "Shang Zu" and "Sainting Saint" have such a smile that can be seen through the world!
After leaving Zhang Liang's mansion, Wang Dafu did not show any dejected expression. Today's result was actually expected. In fact, today's gains have far exceeded his expectations. Not only did he receive guidance from Zhang Liang. Even the mysterious smile of "Story of the Sage" in the end was a huge encouragement for Wang Dafu. You know... in the past, Zhang Liang refused directly when facing such a topic!
The next stop, Wang Dafudi, is the mansion of a young scholar, that is, Lu Buwei, with red walls and white tiles, small pools and rockery. Lu Buwei's luxurious and elegant characteristics will not change there.
When he came to the study gently, he saw the young scholar burying himself in his desk. His seemingly thin figure was overwhelmed by a pile of documents like a mountain. Wang Dafu couldn't help but feel funny and moved.
Unlike Zhang Liang's almost perfect life trajectory, Lu Buwei's figure in history is a controversial figure with mixed reputations and controversy, but neither "Lu Mi" nor "Lu Hei" can deny an obvious fact. That is Lu Buwei's ambitions and his outstanding talents.
Pushing the door, Wang Dafu smiled brightly and said, "I am really scared to see that sir has worked so hard."
When the young scholar looked up and saw Wang Dafu, he smiled faintly. He waved his hand and said, "The city lord is joking again. This is just a matter of duty. What's the hard work?" Looking at the young scholar's calm and unconcealed smile, Wang Dafu couldn't help but blink gently. In fact, he knew very well that the internal affairs talents he was looking for were actually around him for a long time. Lu Buwei's internal affairs ability was definitely not under Xiao He, who was known as the "Three Masters of the First Han" as the "Story of the Sage". However, for many reasons, he had to aggrieved him to engage in intelligence work that he did not specialize in.
Now Green Willow City is in such a very embarrassing situation. On the one hand, the current Supreme Chief Executive Xiao Rang is obviously a little overwhelmed, but on the other hand, he is the most suitable candidate who cannot take over the job for various reasons...
After a moment of silence, Wang Dafu suddenly said: "Mr. Lu, if I want you to take over the Supreme Chief Executive of Green Liu City, I wonder if you have any suggestions?"
When the young scholar heard this, his eyelids didn't move. He just shook his head and said, "The task I am responsible for now. There is no suitable candidate for taking over. Even if there is, I am definitely not suitable to serve as the Supreme Chief Executive!" This is exactly what Wang Dafu was most worried about. Compared with administration, what he really lacked most is actually the intelligence talents!
Touching his nose, before Wang Dafu had time to speak, the young scholar opposite suddenly asked as if nothing had happened: "But I don't know what the city lord got when he went out to visit the virtuous this time?"
When Wang Dafu heard this, he sighed and said, "If I talk about this visit to the wise, I have met many masters and scholars. However, if I talk about the real gains... I can only say that there are only a few."
Hearing Wang Dafu sighing, the young scholar raised his head and looked at him, then chuckled and said, "You can become a master and talented person by the city lord. I think you should be real talents, but..." Speaking of this, the young scholar waved his head and said in a strange tone: "City lord, are you sure you are visiting the wise this time instead of the talent?"
"Visiting talents? Visiting talents?" Wang Dafu was stunned when he heard this. He seemed to have some insight in his heart, but he was also dazed and didn't know where the light of inspiration came from.
Seeing Wang Dafu's expression, the young scholar smiled and continued, "City Lord, you suddenly talked about the Chief Executive's affairs, could it be..."
Wang Dafu was still thinking about the previous words of the young scholar. When he suddenly heard this question, he didn't pay attention to answering casually: "Well~~ I just think Mr. Xiao has always been diligent, but sometimes he seems to have less experience." It is obvious that "The Way to Be an Official" has been completely integrated into the blood of this fat man. When he is so inattentive, he can even speak such official words so smoothly, which is also amazing.
However, the young scholar didn't care, and just said, "Haha~~ City Lord, in fact, even if you take over Brother Xiao's position, I probably won't be much better than him."
Wang Dafu was really stunned now. Although the "saint-hand scholar" Xiao Rang is famous, strictly speaking, it is within the circle of Liangshan. Compared with the young scholar, it is simply the difference between fireflies and Haoyue. There is basically no comparison. It seems that the "robber leader" and "the prime minister of the empire" are compared together, which has become a real joke.
But this "joke" actually came out of the mouth of a certain "prime minister of the empire". Wang Dafu really felt that his eyes were about to bulge out at this time.
The young scholar's face was calm, as if the "joke" just now was not what he said. Looking at Wang Dafu's surprised expression, he casually said: "As the saying goes, a scholar must first sharpen his tools if he wants to do things, and the way of governing is nothing more than this. Now the matter of Green Willow is not on his soldiers but on his tools. The city lord must not give up on the roots and the end."
If the young scholar's enlightenment just now was just a vague, then this sentence was basically considered a morning bell and mud drum. Wang Dafu only felt a sudden purity in his heart, and finally realized what the confusion he had always been in!
Green Liu City does not really lack senior internal talents now. In fact, what they really need is middle-level talents. This is the crux of the current inefficiency of Green Liu City. If this problem is not improved, even if Lu Buwei or Xiao He is responsible, there will be no improvement. How many things can a person do even if he is exhausted?
In fact, this problem was revealed as early as when Luliu Town was first upgraded, and Wang Dafu also had some vague feeling. Unfortunately, several grand events held and the emergence of Bifeng Village led Wang Dafu's ideas astray, making him begin to pursue high-end talents with a little paranoid attitude, but ignore that the real importance for a territory is that it should be the foundation!
This "basic" requires both hardware facilities and software content.
Wang Dafu is not a fool, but sometimes he has an almost paranoid preference for senior talents, especially historical famous figures. It seems that this kind of "talent collection habit" is another typical patient, Cao Cao, a hero of the Three Kingdoms period.
This time I was suddenly awakened and immediately realized the mistake. I jumped up and bowed seriously and said sincerely: "Thank you for your advice, the lord of the city will remind you of the five inner world!" After saying that, I wished I could turn around and leave immediately.
Looking at Wang Dafu's excited expression, the young scholar still looked calm on his face. It was not until Wang Dafu was about to arrive at the door that he said casually: "City Lord, do you know an old saying that there are no wise men in the mountains?"
Hearing this, Wang Dafu almost took a wrong step and fell directly. The young scholar didn't know what was going on. Today, he seemed very "magical". Not only did he wake up Wang Dafu continuously, but he was also extremely frank (this is particularly rare), which made Wang Dafu not sure whether he had a big explosion in his character today or accidentally applied two kilograms of sesame oil when he woke up in the morning.
