There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Then he looked at the signature and couldn't help but be taken aback.

The inscription is anonymous, with only one surname.

"pottery?"

Lu Su closed the poster, pondered for a moment, and said, "Follow me out to greet you."

The pottery merchant was standing outside the mansion, and when he waited a while, he saw a lean and dark-looking man in a white filial piety walking out.

Judging by his age, this person seems to be Lu Su.

"I have met the master." Lu Su respectfully greeted the potter.

The Tao merchant smiled and helped him up: "Tao did not write his name on the post, how did Zijing know my identity?"

Lu Su's answer was very simple: "Guess."

The pottery merchant looked up at the door plaque and said, "Since Tao is here to pay tribute to the funeral, he should go in first to pay homage to the ancestors. What does Zijing think?"

As a potter, Lu Sushan made way for a passage, and said, "Grandmother Su, thank you Taifu for condescending... Taifu please come in."

462 Zhang Zijing Discusses Four Strategies

After paying homage to Lu Su's grandmother, Lu Su immediately entertained the potter in the living room.

This time the potters came uninvited.

It is reasonable to say that doing so is really abrupt, but he is really worried that Lu Su will return to Chaohu after the funeral, and it is likely that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce will be taken advantage of by that time.

Pottery merchants are reluctant to take advantage of their enemies.

Lu Su was one year older than the potter, so the pottery exporter was called a brother.

"Brother Zijing finished the funeral this time, when do you plan to leave?"

Lu Su waved his hands when he heard the words, and even said he didn't dare, but he didn't dare to call himself a brother in front of the pottery merchant.

After a little courteous refusal, Fang heard Lu Su say: "My original intention was to return to the nest at the beginning of next month, but now that the Taifu is here in person, I may not be able to go back."

The potter heard this and laughed.

Talking to smart people is not tiring.

Lu Su is a smart man, he read the post sent by the pottery merchant, there was only one surname, and when he moved his head, he knew that the other party was the grand tutor of the current dynasty, and also the governor of Xuzhou and Yangzhou.

As one of the few powerful princes in the world, the pottery merchant naturally wouldn't come to Dongcheng to pay tribute to his unknown grandmother. His real purpose should be himself.

Although he didn't know where the pottery merchant found out about him, Lu Su was still quite shocked at the moment.

The potters rushed all the way from Pengcheng to Dongcheng, which showed how much the potters attached importance to him.

As the saying goes, a scholar dies for a confidant, and a woman looks for a pleasing one. The potter's move is quite a bit like Zhou Gong's spitting.

For Lu Su, pottery merchants are much stronger than Sun Ce in terms of power, strength, reputation, and recent actions. Now that such a heroic figure finds him, although Lu Su is quite self-confident , but I also feel that pottery merchants are the ones who can really show their talents compared to Sun Ce.

Before discussing it in detail, Lu Su has already made a seven-point decision.

The pottery merchant looked at Lu Su and said with a smile, "Zijing is right. To tell you the truth, it was Tao's virtuous minister, Chen Deng, who recommended my elder brother to me."

Hearing this, Lu Su suddenly said, "It turned out to be him."

The pottery merchant nodded and said: "I have heard for a long time that Zijing is a brilliant man, a genius in the world. Tao came from a long way to meet him, and sincerely begged Brother Zijing for advice, and please don't reject me thousands of miles away."

Lu Su saw that the potter was so polite, he said quickly: "Don't dare! Don't dare! Taifu's reputation as a gentleman is all over the world, how dare Su dare to be brave in front of Taifu? If Taifu asks, Su must know everything. "

Tao Shang smiled and said bluntly: "Dare to ask Brother Zijing, from your point of view, in the future, Tao is living in two states and ten counties in the southeast, how should he deal with himself? In Xuzhou and Yangzhou, What will be the way out in the future?"

Seeing that the potter didn't regard himself as an outsider at all, Lu Su asked such a sensitive question directly when he came up. It was obvious that he regarded himself as a dish, and he was a little excited and a little moved.

He smoothed his train of thought, and then said to the pottery merchant: "I heard that the Grand Tutor has subdued the old general of Huainan, and his power has become stronger and stronger. At present, Yuan Shao has already begun to send troops to subdue Qingzhou and Youzhou. In Su's humble opinion, after Yuan Shao conquered Hebei, It is inevitable that people from the north and the desert will go south to the Central Plains and Xuzhou, although the Tai Tuo is strong, but if he wants to defeat Yuan Shao, unless Yuan Shao has big loopholes and omissions, it will be extremely difficult."

The potter felt right, he couldn't hope that when he fought Yuan Shao in the future, there would be a real loss of Wuchao.

The torrent of history has already changed its direction, who can guarantee that Yuan Shao will make mistakes again.

"Then according to brother Zijing's opinion, what should Tao do?"

Lu Su cleared his throat, and said to the pottery merchant, "There are four things the Grand Tutor has to do right now. The first thing is to immediately select a man who is good at planning and fighting, to eliminate the banditry in Jiangdong, and strive to fight Yuan Shao in the future." When it is time, there will be no mistakes in the rear."

This remark is roughly the same as my original intention of coming here, and it really is the same as what a wise man sees.

"What about the second one?" asked the potter again.

"Teacher must find a way to marry the emperor."

"Marriage with the emperor?" The potter never thought about it.

Lu Su smiled and said: "Yuan Shao's military power and strong territory are only one of them. The reason why Yuan Shao has no shortage of talents is because his important cronies are all from important noble families in the North. The lord of the Yuan family is also the leader of the lords and alliances. His disciples and former officials are all over the world. His political height is beyond the reach of others. It is not that he is exaggerating Yuan Shao. During the process, the gentry in Xuzhou rebelled and voted for Yuan. The most direct way at the moment is to make the Tao family a relative of the emperor. "

Lu Su really deserves to be Lu Su, he hit the nail on the head!

In history, because Cao Cao won the emperor, he was able to achieve the political height of suppressing Yuan Shao and resisting him.

Even so, before the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao betrothed all three of his daughters to Liu Xie and won the respect of the royal family.

Fighting a war is nothing more than fighting soldiers, and you have to fight your heart, politics, and backstage.

The details are all here.

Lu Su deserves to be a good designer.

The pottery merchant strengthened his determination to make Lu Su his right-hand man, and continued, "What about the third one?"

Lu Su said calmly: "I can't support myself alone. The third thing the Taifu has to do is to temporarily turn the enemy into a friend with Cao Cao. We don't seek an alliance, but at least we can echo each other."

The potter frowned upon hearing this.

It seems that this matter is not easy to handle. He just broke the wrist with Cao Cao not long ago, and he is still plotting against Zhang Xiu.

After a while, the potter said: "Cao Cao and I have fought against each other several times. Although we used to be friends, but after years of fighting, I'm afraid he might not be willing to help me."

Lu Su shook his head and said: "It's not for you, it's for himself. If Yuan Shao goes south, the one who will bear the brunt of it will be in the Central Plains. If Cao Cao is smart, he should know that with his current strength, it is absolutely difficult to resist Yuan Shao. Only with the cooperation of the two of you can you be evenly matched with Yuan Shao."

The potter narrowed his eyes and meditated quietly for a moment.

"I remember this matter, but whether it succeeds or not depends on Cao Cao's attitude...Brother Zijing, let's talk about the fourth thing."

Lu Su leaned slightly, and said: "The fourth thing is, if I were the Taifu, I would definitely guard against Liu Biao in Jingzhou."
