"The rest of the body is old, and the sick body is also short, what is the use of the general to recruit him?"

Xu Wei came, people came, but the soul didn't come.

Chen Mu didn't know what Xu Wei looked like in the past, but he knew that it was definitely not the old man in front of him.

The last time Wu Dui came, he said that Xu Wei is forty and nine this year, and it stands to reason that he is in the prime of life, but what about the people sent by the Outer Guard Banner Army who are trekking through mountains and rivers now? His face was withered, his beard and hair were white, and his body was so thin that he couldn't even lift a sword, let alone look blank as if he had lost his soul.

It's a waste, so to speak.

White-faced hair and a hairshaw without a hat are rare among men in the Ming Dynasty, and they don't even bother to comb their heads, so they are happy to teach Chen Mu to look at it.

Xu Wei said: "Why are you laughing? ”

"Mr. has a hair-draped appearance, except on the battlefield, Chen has rarely seen it." They all tied their hair on the battlefield, wrapped in a headscarf and buckled a hood just to absorb shock, but sometimes the fight was chaotic, and it was inevitable that someone would fall to the ground after the battle, which was difficult to see in ordinary times, Chen Mu showed his hand and said: "Anyway, it's all here, why don't you sit for a while, sir, and don't get tired when you stand?" ”

Before Xu Wei came, Chen Mu thought a lot about how he should deal with Xu Wei, but when Xu Wei came, Chen Mu found that the ideas he had prepared before were useless, and he still didn't know how to deal with Xu Wei.

During this time, he sent someone to collect Xu Wei's past resume, studied his style of doing things well, and the answer he got was to go with the flow, this person was not cured.

Not to mention that he committed suicide nine times in a mental disorder and spent six years in prison after killing his wife, even when he was mentally normal, he was very different from others in this era.

Hu Zongxian's face is a person with very high official authority, not to mention being the governor of Zhejiang, who controls the north and south. is such a person, Xu Wei walked in halfway during the military meeting, thinking that he had something important to report, and everyone in the room was waiting for Xu Wei to speak, but Xu Wei turned around the house generously, and no one ignored it and went out again.

He was called crazy, but Xu Wei always knew what he was doing.

Just like now, there are eight chairs in the front hall of the General's Palace, two for the upper seat and eight for the guest seat. Chen Mu sat in the guest seat from the left, Zhao Shizhen sat on the right second, obviously leaving the right side of the first chair is Xu Wei's, but he doesn't sit.

He sat on it, the guest seat on the right side of the top, pointed to the main seat on the left and said to Chen Mu: "The general should sit here, not that, this is Yu's position, the general just doesn't sit there, Yu also sits here." ”

Chen Mu understood, and he knew that Xu Wei also understood.

He sat here instead of on it, just to express himself Corporal Lixian, now that Xu Wei understood, Chen Mu smiled and said, "It's better if Mr. is willing to sit there, Chen is afraid that you will come and go." ”

"The body of a sin is assigned to serve in the army, and now he is being asked by the general to go to Xuanfu to join the military." Xu Wei still looked half-dead, "Where else can I go?" ”

Chen Mu spread his hands, "You can go anywhere." Originally, the matter of hiring staff members required two wishes from the guest and the host, but it is impossible to talk about the two wishes of the guest and the host in the current situation, Mr. Xu must do things for Chen, Chen can transfer Mr. from the guard, but no one can transfer Mr. from Chen, but ......"

"Mr. is not able to do military affairs now, and secondly, Chen has no hand at hand, and there is indeed nothing that Mr. can do." Chen Mu thought about it very carefully, this was indeed the case, and he was a little helpless and said: "Let's go on vacation first." ”

Zhao Shizhen sat upright with his hands folded, and his eyes were straight when he looked at Chen Mu - who said a few days ago that when Xu Wei came, I wouldn't have to help you copy the official documents?

Is this a holiday?

Xu Wei also had doubts, "Holiday? ”

Although this is not a normal recruitment of staff, it is too rudimentary, right? Li Chunfang won't talk about it, how much attention did Hu Zongxian attach to himself at that time, why did this Chief Chen Bing come up and take a holiday?

If you want to say that you are an unreasonable person, you have to work so hard to get people out of the Shaoxing prison and send them to the army, and then send people to pass the word to drop people from the outer guards, just to transfer them for vacation?

"Yes, let's take a holiday, there are usually many big gifts for the appointment of the guest in the scene, write a letter or something, Chen's words are ugly, so I won't write it."

Chen Mu nodded, very seriously, pointed at Zhao Shizhen and said: "I haven't been busy here yet, it's enough to have Chang Ji to support him, Chang Ji is a tour of the curtain, and if he can't figure it out, he will leave one day, and I don't know what kind of money the staff should be." Mr. is different, it must be my person, so I won't count the silver with you, let people take five hundred taels, and use it on the road. ”

"By the way, it was Chang Ji who asked me to rescue my husband, and Jingshi said that he was very good at writing, and I don't know how good it is, but it's better than me anyway. I picked five soldiers for my husband, one who can drink spirits, one who is coarse in writing and ink, one who is good at calculation, one who can speak well, and one who is brave in martial arts, which should be enough to cope with most situations. ”

"I also prepared a few sets of clothes, which were not luxurious clothes, but Chen tried them and they were comfortable to wear. Prepare a few waist cards, more than a dozen stamped letters of the order did not write the name of the place, turn back and make up for it yourself, use it as appropriate in the case of the road, and nothing else seems to be fine. ”

Chen Mu said as he took out a notebook with a thick cowhide shell from his waist and looked at it, and said: "By the way, in ten days and a half months, let the post station send a letter back, let me know that you are there, someone in the province asked me, I have to know where I sent you to carry out military affairs, otherwise it will look too confused." ”

"Then it's gone, seven horses and five people, with their bags on their horses, waiting outside the house."

Chen Mu got up and let out a long breath, waved his hand, and said: "Prison for six years, you should see your friends and worship the old people, and when you have the wine you should drink and the mountains you should visit, you can do your best to help Chen, and you will come back." ”

"Please, Xu joins the army, you're on vacation!"

Chen Mu felt that it was good for him to arrange it like this, and Zhao Shizhen and Xu Wei were both blinded.

Especially Xu Wei, he didn't expect this to be the case, slowly got up from the guest seat, was stunned for a moment before walking towards the door, and suddenly asked when he walked past Chen Mu: "General Chen, how much money do you have?" ”

When Xu Wei was a staff member under Hu Zongxian, he was already very close to him in terms of money, and Xu Wei couldn't count the six or seven hundred taels he received, and now Chen Mu opened his mouth for five hundred taels of silver, and asked him to send someone back to get it after he spent it...... After six years in prison, is the silver worth so much?

Looking at the furnishings of the shogunate, Mr. Chen does not look like a greedy person.

How do you know that Chen Mu frowned, shook his head very hard, and said: "This is too difficult, I know how many soldiers I have, but I don't know how many money I have." ”

What else can Xu Wei say? He arched his hand: "Farewell!" ”

As soon as Xu Wei left, Zhao Shizhen hurriedly got up, walked to Chen Mu's side and asked, "General, you just let Xu Wenchang go?" What if he never returns? ”

"If he doesn't go back, can he still go to smash the Lingxiao Treasure Palace?"

Chen Mu chuckled, and then shook his head solemnly, "A person like him, who has the talent of heaven but can't meet a place to use it, has a fire in his heart." Looking at the world, who else knows how to make good use of people better than Chen, and who else can make heroes do their best around them, huh? Do you say, Secretary Zhao? ”

Secretary Secretary! Zhao Shizhen now thinks of Chen Mu's words!

Zhao Shizhen tilted his head and said: "General, if you say that again, you will resign from the curtain next!" ”

"Hahaha!"

The talented man was deflated, Chen Mu laughed happily, and immediately said seriously: "You are overkill as a secretary, but just as Chen Mougang said to Xu Wenchang, we are not too busy now, but there will be busy times, while you have nothing to do now to look at the operation of military affairs, learn to fire guns, the stormy waves are coming, before that, we must be prepared." ”

Zhao Shizhen selectively ignored Chen Mu's words, his curtain master is good anywhere, but there are only two points, one is ugly and the other is crazy - all day long is either stormy or winter, the ghost knows what he is waiting for.

Zhao Shizhen didn't answer, thought of another more important question, and asked in a low voice: "The general really doesn't know how much money he has?" ”

Chen Mu pursed his lips and turned his head and thought about it.

"Why don't you count it for me?"
