Now, Bi Luo Pavilion was very popular in the Chen Kingdom.

Not only did scholars from various countries like to come, even the local aristocratic families of the Chen Country often came as guests.

Here, one could play chess, drink tea, and talk about the world. It was the world of scholars.

Chen Wei's heart was calm as he looked around.

The optical information above these scholars 'heads really gave him a fright.

Lin Zhi (Zhi), Civil Affairs 71, Martial Arts 32, Loyalty 3.

Gongyang Sun, Civil Rule 67, Martial Arts 21, Loyalty 10.

Zi Duxu, Civil Rule 72, Martial Arts 50, Loyalty 31.

……

How terrifying!

This was the power of a scholar.

Here sat the truly talented figures of all countries.

Chen Wei felt that his decision was not wrong.

He used soap and glass as his strategic focus to make the Chen Kingdom famous and activate its business.

Not only the merchants, but even the scholars also hoped to come to the Chen Kingdom to investigate the geography and culture.

In this day and age, scholars had great ambitions. It was not that there were no scholars who only wanted to travel and study.

However, it would be a scholar's luck to meet a wise ruler who could let them display their ambitions.

"Nuyan, tell me, if I can make these scholars work for me, what about the Great Spirit General?”

"Young Master, I don't know."”

Chen Wei smiled.

With talent, why would he be afraid of reform?

However, scholars also had their own schools of thought.

In this era, there were no Hundred Schools of Philosophy, but if their political views were different, then there was no need to continue to get along.

I believe that there are many scholars here who defend the slavery system and respect the nobles for governing the country.

"What a pity, what a pity…"

Chen Wei drank the tea in his bowl in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and immediately decided to get up.

Suddenly,

A scholar in his twenties appeared in front of Chen Wei and bowed."

"Just now, I saw this young master sitting alone with an imposing appearance. I heard them talking about the Chen Country's military and political affairs, so I smiled and came to greet him.”

"I am Juguang from the Song Country.”

Chen Wei glanced at him and bowed back."I am Yu Jia (Gu), a native of Chen Country.”

Yu Jia was naturally Chen Wei's alias.

At this moment,

A string of optical information appeared on top of Ju bald head:

Juguang, Civil Affairs 76, Martial Arts 64, Loyalty 0.

This surprised Chen Wei.

He didn't expect this person to be a great talent in both literature and martial arts.

Not bad, not bad.

"I wonder if Brother Yu is interested in playing a game of chess with me?”

"Alright, please."

Chen Wei was about to leave, but seeing this, he could not leave anymore. He could only sit down again and look at Ju Guang.

Soon, the shopkeeper brought a chess game and placed it in front of them.

Chen Wei knew how to play Go, but ancient Go was different from modern Go.

In ancient times, it was more of a game of chess and competition. After all, it had the demeanor of an aristocrat and was considered a gentleman's game.

However, there were too many modern chess techniques. They focused on killing and attacking, and their hostility was very strong.

Fortunately, Chen Wei had combined the memories of the previous master. When he played chess with Ju Guang, he first focused on modesty and the overall situation, and then on killing.

Ju Guang lost three rounds and was shocked."Sir, you are a good chess player. I admire you."

Chen Wei nodded and smiled,

Using modern chess to compete with the ancients was as easy as playing against a kindergarten child.

Chen Wei's chess skills were nothing to worry about in the modern world. His winning rate in online chess games could not even exceed 30%.

But in ancient times, it could kill in all directions.

This was because many of the techniques and moves in chess were very familiar to modern people, but it was the first time for ancient people to see them. There was no way for them to resist.

However, Ju Guang didn't admit defeat and wanted to try again.

Chen Wei naturally wouldn't decline. It was best to get the attention of such a talent.

Chen Wei came here to search for talents, not just to drink tea.

For a moment,

Many people's gazes turned to their chess game.

"The axe is broad and decisive. I've never seen such a move before.”

"Amazing, amazing. This kind of chess style has never been seen before. This young gentleman's chess skills are so high that I've never seen it in my life.”

Many people praised Chen Wei for his superb chess skills and did not hold back.

Chen Wei's face turned red from the praise. His chess skills were really not that good.

Juguang smiled." Mr. Yu's chess skills are superb. You can form your own style. I'm impressed."”

"You flatter me."

The two continued to play chess. Ju Guang asked,""I wonder why you laughed just now?”

Just now, he was drinking tea at the side. Like Chen Wei, he was a listener. He wanted to hear these scholars 'views on the situation in the State of Chen.

Unexpectedly, he saw Chen Wei drinking tea and shaking his head with a smile. He was a little curious and came over.

Chen Wei was stunned and smiled." I'm just listening and laughing. There's no deeper meaning."”

"In my opinion, the Chen Kingdom is located in the south, and it is surrounded by fierce tigers. The combination of Chen Jun and King Chu can be considered a superior method.“

"Oh? Why?" Chen Wei asked.

"This is Chen Jun's diplomatic policy. The Chen Kingdom has been viewed with great importance by the Wu and Yue countries for a long time. Without the help of the Chu Kingdom, it will not last long.”

"Wu Jun hates Chen Jun for being heartless and unrighteous. In fact, Chen Jun still has a hard time protecting himself, so how can he send more troops to save Wu?”

Chen Wei nodded,

That was indeed the situation at that time.

The southern barbarians invaded the border, so it was impossible for the Chen Kingdom to send more troops to save Wu.

He had no choice but to provoke Wu Jun's scolding.

Moreover, Chen Wei really did not put Wu Country in his eyes.

"Now that the State of Chen has received the protection of the King of Chu because of the auspicious gift from the western suburbs, it is a good time to reform and strengthen the country.”

Hearing Juguang say reform, Chen Wei narrowed his eyes.

He solemnly knelt down, straightened his body, and bowed."Mister Ju, please enlighten me on how the Chen Nation should reform. How to strengthen the country?"
