The book is picked up again.

Five days later, Cao Cao's mansion.

"Cao Gong, can you allocate more manpower to you?"

"Alas......" Cao Cao heard this, looked at Jia Xu and sighed, spread his hands, and said helplessly: "Wenhe, it's not that a certain family is unwilling to support you, but that there is really no one in the hands of a certain family."

If you just want some ordinary workers, then a certain family can send you tens of thousands of people.

But you want craftsmen, how can there be so many skilled craftsmen in a certain family? ”

After saying this, Cao Cao rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly: "A certain family has just taken over Xuzhou, and there are not many talents in their hands at all.

Those skilled craftsmen are all controlled by the people of the family, and if a family wants to build a mansion, they have to ask those people of the family.

And now, the whole family in Xuzhou knows the dream of the virtuous brother.

At the same time, they also know that you set up the school to educate the whole of Xuzhou.

This is digging the roots of the family!

Do you think those people from the family will lend you craftsmen?

It is not easy for a certain family to suppress the opposition of those families.

If you want a certain family to gain an inch and ask for craftsmen from those families, I am afraid that they will immediately unite against a certain family, and at that time, Xuzhou will be unstable!

And once Xuzhou is unstable, Yuan Shao, who is already about to be driven crazy by a certain family, will definitely take advantage of the situation! So ......"

After finishing speaking, Cao Cao spread his hands helplessly, and his meaning was self-evident.

After Jia Xu heard Cao Cao's repeated complaints, he looked at him with a calm face and asked, "Is this really the case?" ”

"Ahem......" Cao Cao was a little uncomfortable by Jia Xu, and after coughing dryly, he nodded cheekily and said, "Naturally, there is no need for a certain family to lie to you." ”

In fact, Cao Cao's words are half-truths and half-truths, he does not have many craftsmen in his hands, but the craftsmen in his hands are still enough to supply Jia Xu.

And the reason why he didn't give these craftsmen to Jia Xu was because he wanted Jia Xu to stay here longer.

He believed that as long as Jia Xu stayed with him for a long time, he would definitely be subdued by him, so he tried every means to delay time.

"......" Jia Xu heard Cao Cao's words, looked at Cao Cao quietly for a long time, and nodded silently.

Then, he looked at Guo Jia, who had been drinking, and asked, "Fengxiao, do you have a way to solve the matter of craftsmen?" ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he was drinking his hand for a moment, and then he put down the wine cup, looked at Jia Xu with a complicated face for a while, shook his head, and said, "Jia, no way!" ”

"......" After Jia Xu heard this, he nodded calmly, and thought to himself: "It seems that Guo Jia has completely taken refuge in Cao Cao, and his credibility should be reduced."

For the sake of his own interests, Cao Cao also began to intentionally or unintentionally delay the progress of the Catholic education of the world.

It can be seen that he has begun to evolve from a hero to a hero, and he can only believe half of his words in the future! ”

Li Zhi sent Jia Xu to Cao Cao for two purposes, one was to build a school.

The second is to investigate the credibility and loyalty of Cao Cao's command.

Li Zhi knew that Jia Xu was meticulous, so he sent Jia Xu here just to see if the people he had handed over to Cao Cao were still loyal to him.

Li Zhi's purpose in doing this was not to turn his face with Cao Cao, but to take precautions.

As the saying goes, those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a moment.

If Li Zhi wants to live a free life after educating the world, he must do three things.

First, like Sima Yi, you can't let Cao Cao feel that he is ambitious, and it is best to make Cao Cao feel that you are very close to him.

This is easy, because Li Zhi has no ambitions, and he and Cao Cao are still friends, and Cao Cao is unlikely to suspect him in his personal feelings.

Second, there must be enough power!

This force does not refer to Li Zhi's own forces, but to the forces under Cao Cao's command.

As long as he places enough manpower under Cao Cao, let Cao Cao know that if Li Zhi is moved, he will definitely hurt his muscles and bones!

In this way, even if Cao Cao had that thought, he would definitely not move Li Zhi easily.

Third, it is necessary to have enough fame and a reputation that is indifferent to fame and fortune, fame was a very useful talisman in the late Han Dynasty.

is like You Heng who "beats the drum and scolds Cao", although Cao Cao wants to kill him very much, but because of his reputation, he can only borrow a knife to kill and throw him to Liu Biao.

And the reputation of indifference to fame and fortune is not to mention, Bai Juyi's poem is good, Zhou Gong is afraid of the message day, and Wang Mang is humble and not usurped.

Lian Xiong's suspicious Han Wu DìDū failed to detect Wang Mang's ambitions, which shows that a reputation that is indifferent to fame and fortune is a very useful life talisman.

As long as the above three points are achieved, then Li Zhi will be able to live a free life after educating the world.

This is what Wuji, the eldest grandson of the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, did.

During the Zhenguan period, although the eldest grandson Wuji had a very high official position, he did not have much power in his hands.

At the same time, he is a relative of the emperor and the country, and his relationship with Li Shimin is very good.

Therefore, on the one hand, he strengthened his relationship with Li Shimin, and on the other hand, he deeply restrained his ambitions, looking indifferent to fame and fortune.

However, he secretly arranged his own manpower into the court.

In this way, he can be like a fish in water when he is chaste.

If it weren't for the fact that after Li Shimin's death, he could no longer hold back the ambition in his heart and wanted to dominate the entire court, I am afraid he would be able to spend the rest of his life in peace.

Li Zhi's current situation is similar to that of the eldest grandson Wuji, and Li Zhi has always taken the eldest grandson Wuji as his example.

Of course, reason is based on the first half of the eldest grandson Wuji's life, and as for the second half of his life......

Li Zhicai won't learn from him!

Li Zhi himself does not have much ambition, so he believes that after Cao Cao is a hundred years old, he will not have any ambitions, and he will definitely be able to die old.

And if he wants to do this, Li Zhi must know whether the people he arranged for Cao Cao's command are still loyal to him.

Li Zhi also did not force those whom he arranged under Cao Cao to be loyal to him.

He just begged the people he had arranged for him to remember some old feelings.

After Jia Xu's observation today, he found that everything was going according to Li Zhi's thoughts.

Although Guo Jia now seems to have indeed taken refuge in Cao Cao wholeheartedly.

But through Guo Jia's expression just now, Jia Xu found that he was actually not happy in his heart.

This shows that Guo Jia actually still thinks of Li Zhi's brother in his heart.

It's just that because he is Cao Cao's subordinate, he can't abolish the public for personal reasons.

So even if he was not happy in his heart, he could only obey Cao Cao's will and plot against the people sent by Li Zhi.

And that's exactly what Li Zhi wants!

If Li Zhi arranged for the people under Cao Cao, he would still be loyal to Li Zhi.

After Cao Cao found out about this, even if he was unwilling, he had to endure the pain and kill all the people Li Zhi and the people he arranged under his command!

Because there is absolutely no room for two voices in one force!

And those people arranged by Li Zhi are all loyal to Cao Cao, but they are thinking of Li Zhi's old feelings, which is the most perfect state.

Because even if Cao Cao found out about this, there was nothing he could do.

After all, nostalgia is a virtue, and Cao Cao can't kill people indiscriminately because of this virtue, right?

At that time, although Cao Cao would be slightly jealous and suspicious of Li Zhi, he would have no choice but to take Li Zhi.

After a long time, he will find that Li Zhi is not a threat, and at that time, he will slowly let down his vigilance.

And after Cao Cao let down his vigilance, Li Zhi will be safe.

After Jia Xu knew about Li Zhi's plan, he admired the five-body throw.

He boasted that he was very good at saving his life, but he never had a complete life-saving plan, he always took it one step at a time.

And after hearing Li Zhi's plan, he suddenly realized that Li Zhi's plan was not a very perfect life-saving plan?

Once this plan is realized, then he, as Li Zhi's subordinate, will be able to live peacefully until the end of the year.

Therefore, he volunteered to come to Cao Cao to observe Li Zhi's manpower here.

Cao Cao saw that after Jia Xu asked a flat question, he was silent, a little apprehensive in his heart, and asked cautiously: "Now that there are not enough craftsmen, what is Mr. Wenhe's plan?" ”
