Chapter 71: Luck and Fame(1/2)

"Qi Luck? What the hell is Qi Luck?"

In the backyard of the prefect's mansion, Xing Daorong, who was drinking peacefully, narrowed his eyes and thought secretly.

He is not a fool, and he has long been suspicious of the various extraordinary things in this world. Now he has a lucky moment, so he has no choice but to think deeply.

"The fortune of a county..."

Looking back at the Liu Du and Liu Bei data displayed in the system, Xing Daorong was thinking.

"It seems that the so-called 'man lord' in this world is the person planted by the legendary luck!"

"It's just that, unlike what the fortune of the heavenly way mentioned in later generations, the fortune of this world seems to have nothing to do with the heavenly way, but it is closely related to the hearts of people!"

Because he passed the three rebellions and Lingling, he helped the local celebrities to be loved by the famous people of the aristocratic families to successfully obtain the blessing of a county's fortune.

In this era, the so-called people's hearts are not very close to those at the bottom.

I don’t know a big word and never travel far away. As long as there are no natural disasters and man-made disasters, farmers who have almost no footprints of ten miles in their lifetime will have little impact on the situation in the world!

Of course, if you encounter natural disasters and man-made disasters, and are motivated by those who are interested, these people can also form a surging trend.

For example, the Yellow Turban Rebellion!

But generally speaking, the people's hearts in a certain place actually refer to local aristocratic families, celebrities, wealthy families and other wealthy families.

The reason why Xing Daorong was able to obtain the fortune of Lingling was that he was recognized and supported by all the aristocratic families, celebrities, and even wealthy families in Lingling.

"It seems that luck looks pretty good!"

After drinking the glass of wine, Xing Daorong squinted his eyes and thought to himself:

"However, it's just good-looking. It can't improve force, intelligence, skills, or even killing skills. The general level and military advisor skills seem useless?"

"You still have to surrender to Prime Minister Cao or Uncle Liu as soon as possible. How can such a small county survive in this chaotic era?"

Although he successfully obtained the position of prefect of a county, he did not have any nostalgia.

In such a remote small county, whether it is Liu Bei or Dongwu, it can be blocked for a while, but for a lifetime?

If he is greedy for this position, he will die sooner or later without a place to bury him!

Taking Lingling as the base, gradually expand its power and develop slowly, even "build high walls, accumulate grain, and slowly become king"?

Nonsense!

Let’s not talk about the fact that the world has gradually settled in the late stage of the Three Kingdoms.

If you want to expand your power, you need someone!

In this era, without a prominent family background, a superior reputation, and a great reputation, who would join you? What would someone go to you for?

Yes, he is now a prefect, but what's the use?

If you want to attack a certain place, what name is it?

What name does it mean to occupy land outside Lingling?

In this era, everything you do must be based on your name.

As the saying goes, "If you are famous for your master, you will be reasonable." If you forcefully occupy other people's territory without a name, you will be despised, insulted, and attacked!

Where can a mere county prefect get the power to attack others?

It is natural to force an attack, but can you afford the consequences?

Although the Han Dynasty is weak now, in name, the princes in the world are still ministers of the Han Dynasty.

If you have no name or reason, you will attack others. This is rebellion or rebellion. Everyone in the world will be punished!

Don’t think that if you think that if you have an army and strength in the future, you can do whatever you want. That’s nonsense.

The reason why Yuan Shao became the largest prince at that time was not only because he had four generations and three public families and many military generals and counselors, but also because his position was a general!

The general has the command of the national army and can nominally command the princes of the world!

Because of this, during the heyday of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, who "used the emperor to command the princes", was nominally inferior to Yuan Shao!

The reason why Sun Quan was able to seize Jiangdong was that he "rely relied on the harsh savages of his father and brother" and possessed this name, and inherited Sun Ce's "General to Rebel", so he could not escape Cao Cao, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty!

Not to mention Liu Bei, he is the "Left General" and the "Governor of Yuzhou"!

What does Xing Daorong have?

A mere prefect of Lingling is just a local official in name, and he has no right to attack others!

Besides, although he gained the hearts of Lingling through the "Three Gives to Lingling", the position of prefect is still privately concession and has not been recognized by the court, and is not considered a regular official of the Han Dynasty.

Of course, the Han Dynasty has always advocated such noble and noble behavior. Generally speaking, the court would set the position of prefect according to local public opinion.

Even so, the mere prefect has no great reputation for expanding outward, and will not attract talents to invest.

"I guess this is my luck, and I have someone who is the main profession and is given the word "fake"!"

Xing Daorong said secretly.

Even if he did not receive the official enthronement from the Han court, he would not be able to be a real prefect, even if he held the real power of Lingling's military, internal affairs, etc.

Logically, after being recognized by the Lingling celebrity, he should have sent an envoy to Xudu as soon as possible to report the matter to the emperor and ask for a formal enthronement.

Cao Cao could not stop this matter. Now is not an era where the rule of law is paid attention to. Except for the army, most places are dominated by rule of man!

In this case, various reputations are very important. Of course, they cannot be faked. Once it is found, it will be thousands of times more terrifying than the death of later generations!

If Cao Cao suppressed Xing Daorong's position as the prefect, he would be scolded by the world!

This kind of curse, although inconspicuous in later generations, will seriously affect a person's prestige and status in this era!

Therefore, if Xing Daorong sends people to Xudu for imperial edicts, he can almost 100% get a substantial prefect.

But he was not interested.

As a person who is always ready to run away, this position of prefect is irrelevant to him!

What matters is reputation!

His reputation is growing now, and no matter which camp he goes to, he will gain corresponding status!

"well!"

Xing Daorong sighed.

"Why haven't Uncle Liu come to lobby yet? I can't wait!"

"Encourt, Mr. Zichu is here to visit!"

At this moment, a personal guard came to report.

"Liu Ba?"

Xing Daorong narrowed his eyes.

"What are this guys doing? Are they here to be a lobbyist for Prime Minister Cao? You can meet him!"

...

Prefect's Office Council Hall.

"Eunuch, this is Lingling's current household registration status, this is the tax collection this year, this is the list of changes in county officials, this is...!"

Liu Ba took out a few bamboo slips and reported to Xing Daorong one by one.

Xing Daorong knelt in the upper seat, expressionless, neither nodding nor shaking his head, but just kept an eye on his face.

He made up his mind to deal with guys like Liu Ba with many ghost ideas, and never made any statements easily, nor did he miss a single expression.

If you speak too much, you will lose it. If you express too much, you will lose it!

"alright!"

Seeing that Liu Ba was about to continue talking, Xing Daorong finally couldn't help it and raised his hand to stop him.

Who are you upset about these messy things? How could I be interested?

This is his inner thought.

Of course, I think so, but I can't say that.

"Mr. Zichu, with your talent, you are very at ease to deal with these things. You can make your own decisions and you don't have to report them to me!"

Xing Daorong said lightly.

"Thank you for your trust!"

Liu Ba bowed and thanked him.

"Encourt, the rest of the matter is nothing, but there is one thing that needs to be decided by yourself!"

Finally, Liu Ba said something.

"Um?"

Xing Daorong looked over strangely and asked:

"What's the matter?"
