Chapter 633 Everyone has their own plans (44)

As a big brother who is in the world, Zhang Miao is very ambitious, but his loyalty is the first priority!

Although Chen Gong's words made Zhang Miao quite moved, they were not enough to make him go against the morals of the world and betray Cao Cao.

Although Zhang Miao politely declined Chen Gong's proposal, Chen Gong had already seen that Zhang Miao was not loyal to Cao Cao, but needed a reason to betray Cao Cao.

So, Chen Gong asked Zhang Miao to retreat and quietly told him the inference that Bao Xin died at Cao Cao.

Zhang Miao is a very generous person in the martial arts world, but he is not without brains.

He also felt very strange about Bao Xin's "no one to see people alive, no one to die", and he was too lazy to think about it and did not think deeply. After listening to Chen Gong's words, he suddenly realized!

Zhang Miao and Bao Xin had a very unusual relationship. Both of them had a good relationship with Cao Cao, and the three of them sent troops to attack Dong Zhuo.

It would be impossible to say that Zhang Miao and Bao Xin had no ambitions and were willing to live under Cao Cao, who had no serious official position at that time!

It was because the two of them had similar conditions in various aspects such as the military, and no one could subdue each other as the boss, so they simply pushed Cao Cao, the "Agent General Fenwu", to the boss of the three-man group.

Since Cao Cao killed Bao Xin for Jibei, it would be a matter of time before he killed him, Zhang Miao for Chenliu.

Chen Gong's inference became the last straw that overwhelmed the camel. Zhang Miao decided to rebel against Cao Cao, and he even proposed to take the banner of "aggression for Bao Xin."

But Chen Gong denied it on the grounds that there was no evidence.

As a top strategist, Chen Gong naturally had the wisdom to understand people. He knew how powerful Cao Cao himself and his subordinates were. If he hadn't been unable to convince Zhang Miao, he would not want to bring up Bao Xin's death.

No one is willing to believe such a thing without evidence, and it will ruin one's reputation.

Besides, Chen Gong betrayed Cao Cao this time and did not have the confidence to completely wipe out Cao Cao. He just regarded Cao Cao as a strong opponent and a good stepping stone to prove his ability.

Of course, Chen Gong could not speak nonsense, shoot himself in the foot, completely offend Cao Cao, and cause harm to the entire family.

Cao Cao trusted Zhang Miao very much. Before going to war, his family kept in Chenliu and asked Zhang Miao to take care of him.

Chen Gong had already put life and death aside, but he had to consider the Chen family. In order to leave a way out for himself and his family, he even took the lead and revealed the news to Cao Cao's family, so that they could hide in Shouzhang in advance.

Speaking of strategy, Zhang Miao is not a little worse than Chen Gong.

He was pushed to the position of coach by Chen Gong, and was full of confidence. He betrayed Cao Cao together with his younger brother Zhang Chao, Xu Si, and Wang Kai, a central partner. He even wanted to make trouble with Cao Cao's family, but unfortunately he couldn't find it.

After embracing Lu Bu into Yanzhou, Lu Bu was on the surface and stationed in Puyang, but in fact Zhang Miao was in charge of the family. He regarded Lu Bu as a shield.

During the battle of Hulao Pass, Lu Bu’s reputation spread all over the world, and his deterrence is not half the greatest!

Most of the county magistrates in Yanzhou were from major powerful families. They received the instructions of the family and did not make effective resistance. They immediately opened the city gate and surrendered to Lu Bu.

These counties are all small places, mainly to prevent bandits from robbing money, and of course they cannot stop Lu Bu's army.

In the battle between various warlords, only the county magistrates will lead their troops to fight. The county magistrates in the county did not have much military force. In order to ensure their own safety, they have always surrendered, and Shangguan will not blame them.

Therefore, only Juancheng, Dong'a and Fan County were defended by Sima Xunyu, Shouzhang Ling Chengyu, and Xiahou Dun, the prefect of Dongjun, and did not rebel against Cao Cao.

Cao Cao led the main force back to the army and fought fiercely with Lu Bu in the Puyang area. The two armies confronted each other for several months without a distinction between the winner and the loss. The situation was very unfavorable to Cao Cao.

......

......

After the messenger left, Tao Qian was still uneasy, but Liu Bei was calm and composed. He looked very confident that Cao Cao would retreat, so he could only wait patiently.

When Mi Zhu returned home, he was very excited about the effect of Liu Bei's letter.

He even made up his mind secretly that if Liu Bei could persuade Cao Cao to withdraw, it means that Liu Bei had enough weight and he would join his family to surrender to Liu Bei.

He has been bound to Tao Qian's interests for a long time, and of course he hopes to start and end well and take the same countermeasures.

Of course, it is not impossible for the Mi family to defect to Cao Cao, but there are too many aspects involved, so Mi Zhu will not consider it for the time being.

The planting technology passed down from generation to generation by the Mi family has long been mature. The Mi family in Xuzhou has not been doing business for a day or two, but its performance is not outstanding.

In Mi Zhu's previous generation, the Mi family was only considered a medium-rich family in Xuzhou.

It was not until Mi Zhu was in charge that the Mi family rose to prominence in Xuzhou and became the richest man in Xuzhou. In the entire Han Dynasty, they were one of the few rich businessmen.

Mi Zhu was originally the successor of the patriarch whom the family had been trained to. He learned literature and martial arts from elementary school and received the best education.

Although Mi Zhu is not a child prodigy, his learning ability is still good.

When he grew up, he was graceful, kind and elegant, and was quite talented in the local area.

He is both civil and military, and is skilled in archery and horses.

Anyone who has dated Mi Zhu thinks he is generous, helpful, honest and reliable, and is not a person who is good at strategy.

Actually, these are all appearances!

In fact, this is Mi Zhu's plan, he is "playing with a pig and eating a tiger".

By chance, Mi Zhu obtained the original "Twelve Business Training Tips of Tao Zhu Gong" handed down by Fan Li. After careful study and reading it, Mi Zhu formed his own business ideas.

Building integrity is just the first step for Mi Zhu to develop the business kingdom!

After Mi Zhu took over the power of the family, the family had a lot of old grain reserves, which was very much loss every year and required considerable maintenance funds.

In order to expand the scale of his planting, he needed a lot of money.

How to develop family business and sell the old grains in your hands is Mi Zhu's top priority.

Although Mi Zhu has shown the sign of integrity, the local consumption capacity is so large that Mi Zhu's family is not only hoarding grain, and the sales volume of old grain is quite limited.

Mi Zhu had to go to other places to find sales. Once, he went to Luoyang to sell food. Although he obtained some orders, he was far from meeting his expected goals.

He put a lot of effort into this order.

He withstood the pressure of his family and spent a lot of money to build the most luxurious carriage at that time. He also made some reputations in high-end entertainment venues in Luoyang.

Mi Zhu believes that business is different from the ancestral planting industry. It is not possible to make a difference and continue to implement the family policy of "not showing off your money". On the contrary, we must find ways to demonstrate our economic strength.

Creating a luxury horse carriage and demonstrating the economic strength of the Mi family is the first step for Mi Zhu to gain reputation.

Being able to obtain these orders in Luoyang shows that Mi Zhu's idea is correct.
