Chapter 134: On Talent and Virtue


Just like this, we drove slowly all the way.

In the afternoon of the next day, a majestic city suddenly appeared at the end of the road.

Like a giant beast dormant It's much bigger than Xueling City.

"That's Ronghua City," Bai Ling said with a smile.

She couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

She was quite tired from running around for days.

You know, except for a few people such as Shen Wanquan, the rest of the Shen family did not know that the chaos in the North was about to happen.

They walked leisurely all the way, as if they were sightseeing.

Bai Ling is an insider and knows the dangers of the world better than Shen Wanquan and others.

However, the Shen family's 100-meter-long team couldn't move too fast, it was too torturous, and the anxiety in her heart was not something others could understand.

Fortunately we arrived safely.

“Wow, what a big city” "This is Ronghua City, so prosperous."

Amidst the exclamation and discussion, the Shen family team was so excited that they couldn't help but move a little faster, and it didn't take long before they arrived at the city gate.

There was already a person waiting in front of the city gate.

Li Xu is keeping a low profile these days and makes fewer appearances.

He didn't even participate in the attack on Cangya Mountain.

Because Shen Lian gave him an extremely important task. buy buy buy Li Xu kept spending money and secretly purchased real estate.

He bought eight medium-sized houses in succession near the headquarters of the Nukun Gang.

He then found someone to open up the walls of the houses and connect them together.

He carried out extensive construction, repairs and decorations, and finally formed a luxury-class residence.

Big house.

Although it is not as good as a top-notch mansion like Wanfu, it is still extremely spacious, with small terraces, palace corridors, and everything you need.

It is a bit more magnificent than ordinary mansions.

Li Xu initially thought that Shen Lian was building a private house for himself, and he tried his best to handle the matter.

Even after the completion of the big house, he purchased a treasure in Gu Garden at a high price, which was called "Mingjing Gaoxuan".

This treasure was made by Duan Rongrong, who manages the Qi Gu District of Gu Garden.

Her "Mirror Gu" can reflect the true colors of things, remove the false and return the true, and can even discern the good and evil of people's hearts.

And with the help of the treasure "Mirror Gaoxuan" created by the mirror Gu, it can release the light of the mirror to form a protective shield to protect an area from being invaded by evil spirits.

Of course, the strength of the protective shield is actually very limited.

It cannot completely block the monsters from entering, but it can serve as a warning.

The most important thing is that through the mirror, the guards who guard the home can instantly locate the monsters, so that the monsters who break into the courtyard have nowhere to hide and can launch attacks in the shortest time.

Many wealthy families are equipped with similar warning devices in their homes.

Li Xu built a large mansion according to high standards, so naturally such things were indispensable, and the total cost was also extremely staggering.

However, Shen Lian was not short of money.

The Chilian Demon Corpse was sold for ten million taels, and together with the wealth that Shao Zhijiang had robbed from Black Tiger Village in his lifetime, it was just enough to build such a large house.

After everything was prepared, Li Xu was shocked that Shen Lian suddenly became the boss of the Nukun Gang.

It was only then that he realized that the mansion was for the Shen family.

"Girl Bai Ling, you have finally arrived.

The gang leader has been looking forward to it day and night, and is always worried about your safety on the road."

Li Xu stepped forward to greet you with a smile.

When Bai Ling heard this, he couldn't help being surprised and said: "The gang leader is worried."

"Oh, Miss Bai Ling doesn't know, gang leader Man has abdicated, Elder Shen has taken over as the new gang leader, and your young master is already the powerful gang leader."

Li Xu was stunned for a moment, then explained with a smile.

Bai Ling was stunned and extremely shocked: "Young Master has become the leader of the gang."

Li Xu smiled: "Please come with me.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

I will settle the gang leader's family first.

When you meet the gang leader, you will know everything."

When Li Xu arranged for the Shen family to move into the mansion.

In the meeting hall, Shen Lian was discussing an important matter with the two deputy gang leaders and five elders.

"Gang Leader, our gang has always had eight elders working together.

Now we are suddenly missing three.

There is a serious shortage of manpower.

The selection of talents is the top priority at the moment."

Bian Chanyu lowered his head slightly and said.

Shen Lian and Bu Lingkong were promoted, and Li Yunxing was sent to fight in the Lin family by Man Boyu.

There were three vacancies in the elder seats, and fresh blood was urgently needed.

Wearing a cool black robe, Shen Lian sat in the position of gang leader.

He looked around and said with a smile, "We have candidates."

Immediately, Bian Chanyu stood up and presented something similar to a personnel file, and said seriously: "These members are all veteran members of the gang who have made great achievements in combat.

They are young and powerful and are in their prime.

They should be qualified enough to serve as candidates.

Of course, the final decision on who to be the elder depends on the helper’s discerning eyes.”

Shen Lian took it, looked at it, nodded, and said slowly: "These people are all good, they must be qualified and qualified."

Bu Lingkong raised his eyebrows when he heard this, raised his hands and asked, "Does the gang leader have other ideas?"

Shen Lian sighed and said in a deep voice: "I just received the news that the Lin family and the Huang family have started a full-scale war.

In addition to the Lin and Huang families, there are many other families and sects involved.

I believe it will take a long time for the storm to sweep away.

Throughout the Northland, the era of great chaos in the Northland is coming."

Everyone's breath froze when they heard this.

Although everyone had been mentally prepared, they still had some luck and fantasy in their hearts.

What if the Lin and Huang families reconciled?

Unfortunately, they still carried out the plan in full force, making everyone uneasy.

Kong You sighed: "Oh, the monsters are causing trouble, and they can't kill them all, but they can't kill them, but these aristocratic families are..."

The tone was full of endless disappointment.

Everyone nodded.

Shen Lian said calmly: "The reason is the strong rise of the Huang family.

The undead Gu produced by the Huang family was too powerful, which led to the expansion of the Huang family and the urgent need for a large amount of resources.

For this reason, the Huang family continued to annex other aristocratic families, causing great panic, and even It threatened the Lin family, the first family in the North.

After the Lin family intervened, the Huang family restrained, but this still could not stop the Huang family's ambition.

After months of gathering strength, the two sides finally began to attack each other without stopping. " Bu Lingkong was a little stunned and said: "The troubled times are coming, and the gang leader wants to make some changes in the selection of talents, right?"

Shen Lian nodded: "When selecting talents, virtues always come first and talents come last.

When looking at a person, one should first look at his character and then his talents.

This is a gang rule.

I want to make some adjustments so that talents come first and virtues come last."

Kong Yoo and others' breathing was stagnant and their colors changed slightly.

In particular, any gang or organization values ​​seniority.

Qualifications are often a pass for promotion.

The longer a person joins an organization, it proves that the person has been tested by the organization in all aspects, such as loyalty, talent, etc., and the organization understands everything about the person and trusts him, and then he will be given a heavy responsibility.

After all, trust is the most important thing, and trust takes time to cultivate and prove.

Kong Yoo, Bian Chanyu and others were all reused under this model.

Of course, this model is not perfect, and it will also breed disasters like Cao Youqing, who is not satisfied with the status quo and attempts to usurp the throne.

On the other hand, if seniority is not considered, it is an exceptional promotion.

For example, Shen Lian was promoted to the post by Man Boyu in this way.

The disadvantages are evident from this.

"Talent comes first, virtue comes last."

To put it bluntly, we only look at a person's ability.

As for whether that person is loyal, it comes second.

As long as the person is talented, even if he is a treacherous villain, he will still be given a heavy responsibility.

This employment model is tantamount to attracting wolves into the house and has huge hidden dangers.

To take the simplest example, after a madman is promoted out of the ordinary, he holds great power, but his ambition is still unsatisfied, and he feels that he is more talented than the gang leader.

Once such ambition appears, he is likely to promote himself out of the ordinary and put the gang leader in the position of a madman.

The gang leader is kicked down and he becomes the gang leader.

The most frightening thing is that doing this does not violate the gang rules, because according to the rules of talent first and virtue last, if the gang leader is kicked out, it is because the gang leader himself is incompetent, and who is to blame.

If other people follow the same example, they will definitely try their best to usurp the throne.

If the vicious circle continues, the Nukun Gang will be finished sooner or later.

Kong Yoo frowned and said: "If you start this way, you may lead a wolf into the house and trap yourself in a cocoon.

Please think twice, leader."

Among all the people present, only Kong You was qualified to say this to Shen Lian.

It was considered a piece of advice that was harsh to the ears, and his sincerity can be learned from it.

Bu Lingkong also said cautiously: "Once this rule is activated, people will be moved, and subordinates will not obey their superiors.

Whoever is stronger will be the boss.

It will definitely cause great turmoil.

Please think twice, leader."

"Please help me think twice" Bian Chanyu, Gongsun Zhi and others also all opposed it.

Shen Lian smiled and said domineeringly: "In troubled times, people are hired based on their talents but not their virtues.

Please rest assured, as long as I am here, no one can overthrow the sky.

There is no one who cannot be shaken by me."

The implication is that I am not Man Boyu.

If I dare to use this rule, it only means one thing.

I, Shen Lian, will always be the strongest one.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Kong Yoo and others were completely speechless.

They all twitched their faces and smiled bitterly.

"The gang leader is extremely powerful.

If that's the case, then I'll do as you wish."

Bian Chanyu said with a gentle smile.

After the meeting, Shen Lian returned to the study on the fifth floor.

"Gang leader, there is a man named Shuangxi who wants to see you."

After Shen Lian sat down, someone came to report.

"Invite him in."

"yes."

After a while, Shuangxi walked in quickly, bowed and said, "I've met Gang Leader Shen.

Congratulations on your promotion.

You have great power."

Shen Lian said calmly: "Sit down."

Shuangxi walked to a chair aside and sat down, and said straight to the point: "Gang Leader Shen has just taken over the power and is busy with everything.

Sister Yin understands, but the business between us is very profitable.

Gang Leader Shen must stick to it."

It has been some time since they formed a partnership to slay the Chang family.

Shen Lian was first busy competing with Man Boyu in a battle of wits and courage, and then handling various major affairs as the leader of the gang.

He was so busy that he didn't even have time to practice, and Wan Yinna But Bian couldn't wait any longer.

Shen Lian smiled and said, "I have already chosen my next target, the Tian family."

Shuangxi frowned and thought for a while, then said: "That Tian family in Longshang" Longshang is a place name.

There is a city built on the high ground called Longshang City.

The Tian family is the owner of Longshang City and the only aristocratic family.

A noble family owns a city.

Shen Lian nodded: "I just got the news that the Tian family was also involved in the fight between the Lin and Huang families, and suffered heavy losses from the beginning.

Nearly half of the Tian family members were lost, and there were huge casualties."

Shuangxi hummed and said doubtfully: "We have also received this news, but the Tian family's bloodline Gu is the Crazy Knife Gu.

This Gu feeds on the crazy sword intention, and there is nothing we can do about it."

Shen Lian asked back: "Have you not noticed the Tian family's opponents?"

Shuangxi thought for a moment and replied: "The Tian family is an ally of the Lin family and is hostile to the Huang family, and the opponents in that fight were the Hua family, an ally of the Huang family."

Shen Lian took over the conversation: "The Hua family's bloodline Gu is poisonous Gu, specializing in poison.

It is said that the Tian family suffered heavy losses because they were ambushed by the Hua family, and the location of the ambush was Jiu Poison Valley.

Do you understand?"

Shuangxi blinked his eyes, thinking about it over and over again, a thin layer of sweat gradually formed on his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Please give me a clear explanation, Gang Leader Shen."

Shen Lian twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "The Jiu Poison Valley contains rich earth lung energy, which was released by the Hua family.

This killed the Tian family by surprise, so all the injured in the Tian family should have been poisoned by the earth lung poison, and This kind of poison can only be eliminated by using the special glutinous rice soup from Tangwang Mountain to cleanse the five internal organs
