LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 37
Chen Qun, with the courtesy name Changwen, is the son of Chen Ji, one of the nine ministers in the late Han Dynasty.
Putting aside his status as a top Yingchuan family, his personal talent alone is enough to have a place in the Three Kingdoms, where talents abound!
He is an extremely outstanding top politician in the later Cao Wei Group and even the entire Three Kingdoms period! What he is best known for is that he proposed the creation of the"Nine-Rank System", which has influenced all dynasties in later generations!
In addition, he has another identity that is not well known to ordinary people!
That is, the son-in-law of Xun Yu, the top leader of the Cao Wei Civil Service Group!
With such a luxurious background, even Chen Deng, who is a local snake in Xuzhou, is inferior to him by three points!
And this is also an important reason why Cao Jian wants to win him over and use him for his own use!
However, such a top think tank talent, with Cao Jian's current status as a mere military Sima, even with the status of the second son of the Cao family, is still not qualified to recruit.
The only feasible way is to write a letter to his cheap father and ask Boss Cao to submit a petition to recruit and appoint him in the name of the emperor!
As for before the official appointment?
The most he can do is to visit him in advance to get the bottom of the matter and get to know him.
After making up his mind, Cao Jian immediately took action...
After secretly writing a letter to Boss Cao.
He decided to take Chen Deng to visit Chen Qun that day!
After hearing this, Chen Deng's eyes flashed with a strange color.
After a slight hesitation, the expression on his face was quite interesting.:
"The Second Young Master has just arrived in Xuzhou. I didn't expect that he had heard of the name Chen Changwen?"
Cao Jian smiled indifferently and did not answer directly. Instead, he said meaningfully:
"Mr. Yuanlong is a man of extraordinary talent and character. I heard that there are only a few talented people in the world who can be favored by Mr. Yuanlong!
When it comes to those with strict family background and perfect moral character, Mr.
Yuanlong respects the two brothers Chen Yuanfang the most; when it comes to those with noble moral character and pure as jade, he respects Hua Ziyu the most; when it comes to those who are upright and righteous and hate evil, he respects Zhao Yuanda the most; when it comes to those who are knowledgeable, have a good memory and are talented, he respects Kong Wenju the most; when it comes to those who are outstanding heroes and have the strategy of a king or a hegemon, he respects Liu Xuande the most.
As for the others? They are all too mediocre and not worth talking about by Mr. Yuanlong.……"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Deng's face changed slightly, and he quickly smiled bitterly and explained:
"It was just some drunken nonsense, crazy words!
Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously.……"
"If we really want to talk about the world's talents?
Not to mention those far away, Yuan Long would never underestimate you, the Second Young Master!"
"Thinking that the young master is still young, he is both civil and military, and has many ingenious plans and tactics. He can be called a genius in the world!
Yuanlong does not know about the young master's previous achievements, so he dare not make a rash judgment.
But just looking at the past few days, he led a surprise attack to Xuzhou, and personally killed the generals in front of the battlefield, and easily captured the main city of Xuzhou. Such achievements are the best among the younger generation!
In fact, let alone the younger generation, even if you look at the world!
How many people can achieve so many achievements at the young master's age now?"
After saying this, he saw a rare flash of admiration and sincerity in his eyes and said:
"With the Second Young Master being such a great talent, Yuan Long is like a firefly in a can, how dare he compete with the sun and the moon? The arrogant words he said back then, unfortunately fell into the ears of the Young Master, and it seemed really ridiculous, which was really a laughing stock.……"
After hearing this, Cao Jian did not comment on Chen Deng's flattery, but just smiled calmly and said:
"Mr. Yuanlong, thank you for your praise!"
"Sir, don't be nervous! The reason I mentioned your comments on the world's talents in the past is not to make fun of or blame you, but just to answer Mr. Yuanlong's doubts!"
"Didn't the teacher ask me why I had heard of the names of Chen Qun and Chen Changwen?
Think about the Chen Yuanfang brothers, they have a strict family and are virtuous, and even Mr. Yuanlong respects them the most; and Mr. Chen Changwen is the nephew of Mr. Yuanlong's most respected distant brother, and he himself is talented and famous, so it's hard for me not to know him!"
After hearing this, Chen Deng breathed a sigh of relief and nodded silently:
"I see……"
With Chen Deng's intelligence, he had obviously heard a lot of hidden meanings from the short conversation just now!
In his opinion, Cao Jian, as a young and inexperienced outsider, had only occupied the main city of Xuzhou for a few days. He should have been completely blind to the overall situation in Xuzhou.
He never thought that this seemingly harmless second son in front of him actually knew all the arrogant words he had said to others in private?
Moreover, he even knew clearly that Chen Qun was living in seclusion in the city, which was unknown to outsiders?
What kind of intelligence gathering ability and what kind of terrifying infiltration ability does this represent?
Just thinking about it, Chen Deng felt a chill on his back:
"It seems that it is impossible to fool the second young master in Xuzhou City!"
At this moment, after thinking this through in his mind,
Chen Deng dared not make trouble for Cao Jian's request to visit Chen Qun.
He immediately led the way respectfully:
"Since the young master is interested, how could Yuanlong not serve you like a dog and a horse?"
"Sir, please follow me! Yuanlong will prepare the carriage and introduce you to……"
……
With Chen Deng as the middleman to lead the way, Cao Jian's visit to Chen Qun naturally went very smoothly!
In fact, with the intelligence and political level of Chen Qun, a top politician, he can see the situation in the world and the ownership of Xuzhou very clearly!
Needless to say, he knew the purpose of Cao Jian's visit this time!
In today's troubled times, it is the time for heroes to emerge!
Which talented person in the world really doesn't want to make some spectacular achievements with his own talents?
So, after a simple polite greeting.
Facing the olive branch that Cao Jian extended in advance as the future heir of the Cao family?
Chen Qun agreed on the spot without any hesitation:
"What virtue and ability does Wenchang have to deserve such love from the second master?
Since I sincerely want to invite you, Wenchang is willing to do his best for the people of Xuzhou!
As long as the appointment edict arrives, we will take office immediately.……"
After saying that, he stood up and bowed to Cao Jian!
Seeing this, Cao Jian couldn't help but feel secretly happy:
"It is true that after searching for a long time, you can finally find it without any effort!"
"Top think tank Chen Qun actually came like this……"
