Liu Bei burst into tears and said, "Filial piety comes first, not to mention the separation of close relatives, you can go with confidence, and after rescuing your mother, I will ask Mr. for advice later when I have the opportunity." ”
Xu Shu was very grateful and wanted to go on the road immediately, and Liu Bei persuaded Xu Shu to stay for a day and go to Mr. Xu for tomorrow.

Introduction: Qin Zhaowang five kneeling to get Fan Ju
Attracting talents and recruiting talents is the foundation of a strong country, and talents, especially high talents, are not so easy to attract.

Therefore, King Qin Zhao, for the second time, knelt down to ask for advice, and his attitude was more respectful, but Fan Ju remained silent. King Qin Zhao knelt down again and said, "Sir, is he really unwilling to teach the widow?" ”
This third kneeling touched Fan Ju and expressed his heavy concerns about his reluctance to speak. After hearing this, King Qin Zhao knelt down for the fourth time and said, "Sir, don't have any worries, let alone have doubts about me, I sincerely ask you for advice." ”
Fan Ju was still not at ease, so he tentatively said, "There are also times when the Great King's plan fails."

Zhicai: A pair of chopsticks gave up Zhou Yafu
The so-called talent is not just to see who is a talent and who is not a talent, but to infer the big aspect from the small aspect, from today's behavior to infer the future behavior, to draw the employment strategy.
Zhou Yafu was a major vassal of the Han Jing Emperor, and when he quelled the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, he made great military achievements, and was loyal to the chancellor. One day, Emperor Jing of Han invited Zhou Yafu to a banquet and prepared him a large piece of meat, but he did not cut it open or prepare chopsticks. Zhou Yafu was very unhappy, so he asked the internal servant official for a pair of chopsticks.
Emperor Jingdi of Han smiled and said, "Minister, I reward you with such a large piece of meat to eat, are you still not satisfied?" I also asked the waiter for chopsticks, which is very exquisite!" Zhou Yafu heard the words and hurriedly knelt down to apologize. Emperor Jingdi of Han said, "Since the minister is not used to eating meat without chopsticks, even if it is, the feast will end here." Therefore, Zhou Yafu could only retreat, but his heart was very depressed.
Emperor Jingdi of Han saw all this in his eyes and sighed, "Zhou Yafu can't even stand my impoliteness towards him, how can he endure the youthful exuberance of the Young Lord?" Emperor Jing of Han deduced from this that if Zhou Yafu assisted the crown prince, he would definitely have some non-point requirements, and gave up his plan to be the prince's assistant chancellor as soon as possible.

Use talent: Thief please fight
The most important thing in employing people is to be good at discovering, discovering, and giving full play to the skills of subordinates. Employ people properly, and do more with less.
Chu befriended Zi Fa Ai with people with great skill and recruited them to his command. There was a person who was not proud of his appearance and was called a "thief", who was also treated as a guest of honor by the son. Once, the State of Qi invaded the State of Chu, and Zi Fa led an army to meet the enemy. Engaged in three battles, the Chu army was defeated three times. There is no shortage of wise men and brave generals under Zifa's banner, but in the face of the powerful Qi army, there is nothing to do.
At this time, the god stole the battle, and under the cover of night, he stole the sleeping tent of the commander of the Qi Army. The next day, Zifa sent emissaries to return the sleeping tent to the commander of the Qi army, and said to him: "The soldiers we went out to collect firewood picked up your tent and specially came to return it." That night, the thief went to steal the pillow of the commander of the Qi Army, and then sent someone back by Zifa.
On the third night, the thief even stole the hairpin on the head of the Commander of the Qi Army, and Zifa still sent someone to return it. When the Qi army heard about this, they were very frightened. The commander of the Qi Army said to his staff in horror: "If you don't retreat again, I'm afraid Zifa will send someone to take my head." Therefore, the Qi army retreated without a fight.
People can't be good in every way, but they can't be bad in every way. Business owners should clearly understand the advantages and disadvantages of each subordinate, must not mix personal preferences, perhaps you look down on someone today, he is your career turnaround in the future.

Yucai: Ji Yuzi trains chickens to yu Yucai
Under normal circumstances, talents must be trained after arriving at the post, that is, to cultivate talents. Education is the permanent project of the enterprise, and the use of talents without the cultivation of talents will not have sustainable competitiveness.
According to legend, King Xuanwang of Zhou loved cockfighting, and Ji Yuzi was a well-known cockfighting expert who was sent to be responsible for raising cockfighting. After 10 days, King Xuanwang of Zhou urged, "Is the training done?" Ji Yuzi said, "Not yet, as soon as he sees another chicken, or hears another chicken calling, he is eager to try." ”
After another 10 days, King Xuanwang of Zhou asked if the training was good, and Ji Zizi said, "Not yet, the mind is still quite active, and the fire has not subsided." After another 10 days, King Xuan of Zhou asked, "How?" Haven't you trained yet? ”
Ji Xiangzi said: "Now it is almost over, the arrogance is gone, the mind is also settled, the other chickens are barking, it seems not to hear, there is no response, no matter what sudden situation it encounters, it does not move, it does not startle, it looks really like a wooden chicken." Such a cockfighting, can be regarded as training to go home, other cockfighting as soon as they see it, they will turn around and flee, and they dare not fight. ”
King Xuanwang of Zhou then went to see the situation of the chicken, and sure enough, he was like a wooden chicken, not moved by the bright sounds outside, but its spirit was condensed inside, and other chickens did not dare to fight with it, and when they saw it, they walked away.
In fact, our breeding talent also follows such a law. Only when enterprises concentrate on cultivating talents and cultivate them to a certain extent can they bring greater value to enterprises.

Excitement: Mozi painstakingly motivates the cultivation pillar
Gengzhu was a proud protégé of Grandmaster Mozi, but he was always scolded by Mozi. Once, Mozi blamed The Cultivator again, and the Cultivating Pillar felt that he was very wronged, because among many protégés, everyone recognized that the Cultivating Pillar was the best, but he was often accused by Mozi, which made him feel very faceless.
One day, Gengzhu indignantly asked Mozi, "Teacher, am I so bad among so many students that I have to be scolded by your old man from time to time?" After hearing this, Mozi asked without annoyance: "Suppose I want to go up the Taihang Mountain now, in your opinion, should I use a good horse to pull the cart, or use an old cow to tow the cart?" ”
The cultivator replied, "Even the most stupid person knows that he has to use a good horse to pull a cart." ”
Mozi asked again, "So, why not use an old cow?" ”
Cultivator replied, "Because a good horse is enough to shoulder a heavy responsibility, it is worth driving." ”
Mozi said, "You're not wrong at all." The reason why I scold you so often is only because you can shoulder heavy responsibilities and deserve my repeated teaching and correction. ”
Motivating talent is an art, motivation is indefinite, and only the right motivation can produce the desired effect. Mozi's incentives are not universal laws, but they can provide a reference for today's excitement.

Go Cai: Cao Cao borrowed a knife to kill You Heng
It is difficult to attract talents, it is difficult to use them, it is even more difficult to go, and it is difficult to go to a strange thing that everyone in the world thinks is talented, but it cannot be used.
You Heng, a famous scholar of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was a famous fanatic in the Three Kingdoms, with great ambition and talent, a mouth like a hanging river, able to speak eloquently, and was very famous at that time. Kong Rong, one of the seven sons of Jian'an, recommended You Heng to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao sent someone to summon you Heng. After the meeting, Cao Cao deliberately gave You Heng some color to see, so as not to let the scholar sit down.
You Heng: "Alas, although the heavens and the earth are vast, there is no talent!"
Cao Cao: "I have dozens of outstanding talents under me, all of whom are heroes in the world, how can I say that there are no talents?"
You Heng: "Xun Yu can make mourning and ask questions, Xun You can make the tomb guard, Cheng Yu can make the door close, Guo Jia can make the white word be read, Zhang Liao can make the drumming sound gold, and Xu Chu can make the cattle herd horses!"
Cao Cao: "Then what skills do you have?"
You Heng: "Astronomical geography, all of them are incomprehensible; the three religions and nine streams are omniscient." Speaking in a big way, I can be a Ming jun like Yao and Shun; in a small way, my moral articles can be compared with Confucius and Yan Hui. How can I compare with the ordinary people under you? ”
Cao Cao was very annoyed in his heart, knowing that You Heng would only play a little trick on his kung fu, and of course he would not buy his account. His subordinate Zhang Liao wanted to kill You Heng, but he stopped it, but appointed You Heng as an envoy to Jingzhou to persuade Liu Biao to surrender to the imperial court. Later, You Heng went to see Liu Biao, and his habits were difficult to change, which angered Liu Biao.
Liu Biao had heard of You Heng's many insults against Cao Cao, and knew that Cao Cao wanted to kill You Heng with his own hand and serve as a notorious "harmful sage", so he sent him to meet Huang Zu, the general of Jiangxia. Huang Zu was a small warlord, and his quality did not reach the level of Cao Cao and Liu Biao.
You Heng saw Huang Zu, so he repeated the trick, and without saying a few words, he offended Huang Zu, and Huang Zu was furious and asked someone to pull You Heng out and cut him off. Hearing that You Heng was killed by Huang Zu, Cao Cao laughed loudly: "This corrupt Confucian is looking for his own death, and he doesn't need to dirty my knife at all." ”
Although Luo Guanzhong had the intention of belittling Cao Cao's narrow-mindedness in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao's strategy of removing this eccentric was indeed very high.
