Chapter 412 Cao Cao Goes North

Knowing Cao Cao's choice, Cao Song didn't talk nonsense, and immediately sold his family business, and also went to the Cao family in person.

Indeed, his original surname is Xiahou, so what? Since he has become Cao Teng’s adopted son and Cao’s surname, he is the Cao family, and he is also the head of the Cao family! When he goes back, he will announce Cao Cao’s decision directly, and ask who agrees and who disagrees?!

"We will go wherever Meng De goes!" Cao Ren came forward without saying a word.

"Where are brothers going, where am I going!" Cao Chun naturally stood up.

"It seems that I'm just ignorant." Cao Hong smiled, and then stood up behind him four or five Cao's children.

"Clan leader, Meng De wants to choose a wise leader and serve him. We don't object, but as the general trend is erratic today, it is too risky to be held on one person." A clan elder came to ask for instructions. After all, it was not Cao Cao's independence, so everyone can do it without hesitation.

If your family members become the boss, they naturally have to support them with all their strength. But now they are seeking others, which is a risk.

"You don't know!" Cao Song had his opinion, "Then Liu Tao's subordinates are full of talents and fewer people are brought by them, so he may be despised. Besides, it doesn't matter if there are more people. As long as they are united, they will become a self-contained in the future. Then Liu Tao will be tactful and will continue to be under his command. If he is incompetent, he can go out independently or even replace him!"

In his opinion, with Cao Cao's talent, it is absolutely possible to be a prince in one place. However, he has special feelings for the Han Dynasty and is unwilling to be the rebel, so he can only find a clan to surrender first.

"So that's it!" Cao Song gave this reason. Although everyone was still a little embarrassed, they could barely accept it.

The principle is also very simple. It is nothing more than learning from the Spring and Autumn Period that my vassal was not my vassal. The old Cao family, even the Xiahou family, brought by Cao Cao, only submissive to Cao Cao, but not Liu Tao.

These days, scholars are used to being domineering and doing it comfortably, so the king and ministers are at peace. If they are uncomfortable, they will just hang the seal and leave!

Cao Cao's actions naturally attracted the attention of two people. One was Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu. Cao Cao recruited soldiers and horses on his territory. As an old acquaintance and friend, he had to come and ask.

After asking, I found out that it was Liu Tao Zhengpi, and Cao Cao planned to take people over to join him.

"The environment in Bingzhou is so poor, and there are Southern Xiongnu on the Xihe River. If there are Xianbei on the Great Wall, how can Chenliu be comfortable?" Zhang Miao had to persuade him, "Meng De, why should I be a Sima of my subordinate first, and then find an opportunity to take over a territory. I have the final say, so I have the final say, so I am better than others have the final say, right?"

Zhang Miao doesn’t have so many ideas at the moment, but just persuades Cao Cao as his old friend.

"Meng Zhuo is intent, but Cao has made up his mind and there is no need to persuade him." Cao Cao also knew that Zhang Miao was considering him, but it was okay if he didn't say it, but he remembered it after he said it.

Liu Tao not only completely defeated the Southern Xiongnu, but also defeated the Xianbei twice, resulting in the Xianbei's allied with them and then formed border trade.

Compared to those guys who hide behind and enjoy comfort, this kind of act of hiding inwardly and shocking the Hu people outside has a taste for him. Or, it should be like this for a real man!

Seeing that Cao Cao was firm in his attitude, Zhang Miao was not good at continuing to persuade him. He just couldn't figure out whether there was no one in Bingzhou, no land, or whether the border towns needed to divide troops to guard against the Hu people, how could the Central Plains feel comfortable...

I really can't understand why Cao Cao likes to go to that kind of place to suffer.

Zhang Miao was one of the eight chefs. After all, he spent money to buy fame and finally became the prefect of Chenliu. His family was rich, and because of this, he became a little lazy and reluctant to work. When he was the Duqiwei, he couldn't endure hardships. After a while, he became the prefect of Chenliu.

Another one is Chenliu's big businessman Wei Zi. In fact, it cannot be said to be a big businessman. After all, he is a "family" doing business. Wei Zi is a scholar, how could he do business? His family is just a little wealth...

"I heard that Meng De was going to Bingzhou?" Wei Zi took the initiative to find Cao Cao. After all, he did not become an official, so his attitude was lowered. Strictly speaking, Cao Cao is now also innocent. The question of where the reputation of others is placed, and it is also a matter of time to be enlisted.

"Well, the governor of Bingzhou issued a book of recruitment, and Cao thought he could go over and take a look." Cao Cao said briefly.

"With Meng De's ability, no matter where he is, it is like a bright moon in the sky, and it is difficult to ignore it." Wei Zi smiled, "It just so happened that Wei also planned to have a future. Not only are he lucky enough to be with the horse's tail?"

"Oh, Zixu is also interested?" Cao Cao was a little surprised. Wei Zi was considered a wealthy family in Chenliu. Seeing that the Eight Chefs started, he had to be very generous to the scholars who came and went, but why the Eight Chefs were Eight Chefs, not Nine Chefs, could he not see it?

It can only be said that it is not considered an imitation of Dong Shi, but it is not that easy to accumulate reputation quickly.

During this period of time in Chenliu, Cao Cao was often entertained by Wei Zi, so he also had a good impression of him. But it was just a good impression. After all, the purpose of the other party's approach was really obvious.

"Liu Bingzhou started from the last moment..." Wei Zi smiled and did not finish speaking.

The meaning is already very clear. It starts from a small matter, which means that no one is used. If you really want to deduct the three righteous brothers, most of them have their own factions. In addition, there are some rangers, or children from local good families, who are not allowed to go to the table.

People these days have probably the same vision, thinking that scholars are representatives of culture. As for those poor families, they can only help them, and as for those rangers and good families, they don’t need to be treated in a straight face.

Liu Tao lacked people, so he would definitely get a share of the pie in the past. In the future, he would be a prefect, or even a prefect, and even a provincial governor. If it is not easy to serve, he can change his family.

Another point is that there are a lot of goods in Bingzhou recently. A few wool fabrics were sent to Chenliu, which caused many people to snatch them. This thing is made into clothes, put on one piece outside the underwear, and then put on a cloak and you can go out.

That is, it retains its demeanor and its warmth, so in the scholar class, it is naturally robbed.

When he went to Bingzhou, he had to look at the wool fabric workshop, even paper workshops, winemaking workshops, to see if you could learn other people's craftsmanship, and to open a workshop yourself when you went back. There were not many family industries.

"Well, I guess I'm looking for development over there, and it's good for Zi Xu to go there." Cao Cao probably guessed Wei Zi's idea, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's his business whether Liu Tao wants it.

The key is that Weiz will follow him and there will definitely be a thousand servants. The key is to replenish supplies, which will definitely be enough for him to go there. Otherwise, if he wants to get him together, he will probably not be able to make up so many supplies. If he goes along, he will probably have to find ways to hunt or attack bandits to subsidize some supplies.

Things were settled like this. Before leaving, you must send a letter to Liu Tao and inform him of his decision in advance. So as not to appear abrupt in the past, the other party did not prepare in advance and did not know how to arrange them.

If you give too high then, Liu Tao will regret it. But if you give too low, then you will definitely not be happy.

"Meng De, I plan to serve the master, can we count us?" Just as we were about to go to war, two scribes came to the army...
