Zhang Ming's matter was widely spread.

I don't know how many people know about Zhang Ming's approach.

This Xun Yu and Cao Ang naturally heard about it, and they also went to the street to wait and saw Zhang Ming's trip.

Back at the place where he lived, Cao Ang said: "I really can't understand this Zhang Ming, he is obviously very extravagant, but he has not harmed the people." ”

Xun Yu also replied: "Yes, this Zhang Ming is willing to sell even such good weapons and equipment, it seems that he doesn't want to fight for hegemony, he just wants to defend it." ”

Weapons and equipment are definitely an important thing in the struggle for world domination.

And Zhang Ming actually sold the materials of this strategy.

Zhang Ming may have squandered this money.

In fact, the folk rumors are even more exaggerated.

said that Zhang Ming collected hundreds of beauties and sang songs every night.

Every day, there are dozens of dishes.

Soak in fresh flowers and milk every day.

In addition, washing feet with tea leaves, gargling with wine, etc., is even more commonplace.

Anyway, after folk processing, Zhang Ming's life has caught up with Dong Zhuo.

It is even more exaggerated than Dong Zhuo, because Dong Zhuo just built an eyebrow house to enjoy, while Zhang Ming directly built an imperial city and a new city.

In fact, Zhang Ming's life is not frugal, and he is even better to his wife, who uses high-end cosmetics and eats very well.

However, it is not as exaggerated as the folk.

Zhang Ming's extravagance is about the same as that of ordinary families.

He can make money, enjoy some and whatever.

When Cao Ang and Xun Yu were still studying Zhang Ming.

In Xuzhou, a big event happened.

Tao Qian's men killed Cao Cao's father.

This Xun Yu and Cao Ang still saw the news in Zhang Ming's newspaper.

Zhang Ming intended to collect news from all over the world, and after receiving the news, he arrived in Youzhou a few days later, and then posted it in the newspaper.

"What? My grandfather was killed. ”

Cao Ang was extremely sad and cried and said, "I want to go back immediately." ”

"Eldest prince, you can't go back."

Xun Yu dissuaded Cao Ang.

"The eldest son, the lord will definitely retaliate, and when the time comes, we need money, a lot of money."

"Moreover, you were able to borrow so much money as a hostage this time, and we may need to borrow more money in the future."

Cao Ang couldn't go back.

Cao Ang cried bitterly and said, "But I have to go back." ”

"If you can't go back, you will do your filial piety here, and I will go back immediately to assist the lord."

The two of them know Cao Cao well, and he will definitely wash Xuzhou in blood.

It happened too suddenly.

At this time, Zhang Ming was also discussing this matter.

In history, there is no battle of Yuan Shao attacking Cao Cao, in history, Cao Cao is strong, and this Xuzhou is far from being an opponent.

But this time, Cao Cao lost tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

Could Cao Cao have pushed Xuzhou into a corner, as in history?

Zhang Ming discussed the matter with Xi Zhicai and Tian Feng while making tea.

"My lord, this matter is far away from us, and it is difficult to interfere directly." Xi Zhicai said.

Zhang Ming has a lot of interests in Xuzhou, that is, the sale of salt.

Zhang Ming made a profit of tens of millions a year, and this money is very important.

If there is a war now, it will definitely have a big impact.

Tian Feng thinks about it from another angle.

"Lord, Xuzhou will affect our short-term finances, according to your meaning, we have begun to hedge in advance, and it will not affect the development of the territory."

Zhang Ming took a sip of tea and put it down.

He's been thinking.

"Cao Cao and Xuzhou, the short-term impact is not to worry about, I am thinking about how to lay it out."

Tian Feng and Xi Zhicai glanced at each other, and both of them knew that Zhang Ming's thinking was different from theirs, and maybe there was something wonderful.

Zhang Ming said: "War will produce a large number of displaced people, and we will take the opportunity to take these displaced people. ”

"Immediately arrange more ships so that the terminals are ready to receive and replenish."

Cao Cao didn't know if he would attack Xuzhou, once he attacked Xuzhou, a large number of displaced people would be generated, and Zhang Ming had to prepare in advance.

"Yes, my lord, we'll arrange it right away." Tian Feng said.

Xi Zhicai said: "Lord, we must strengthen the establishment with Xuzhou, and ask the lord to allocate a sum of money to purchase war horses, set up points along the road, once there is any news, fast horses, and send them to Youzhou within a few days." ”

"Okay, you can go as much as you need for money, I'll approve it, and send a letter to the government along the road to let them know."

sent letters along the road, and they didn't help, no one dared to make trouble for Zhang Ming, otherwise Zhang Ming would retaliate.

Zhang Ming said: "We should establish a newspaper sales network in each state, and use fast horses to make contacts, so that newspapers can be sold quickly, and on the other hand, they can also provide channels for intelligence officers in various places." ”

Zhang Ming plans to sell the newspaper to various places, and through this channel, news can be transmitted in both directions.

This requires a long period of time to establish a stronghold, about a hundred miles to set up a stronghold, and pass it down from one level to another.

Zhang Ming asked Xi Zhicai to start arranging it immediately, and the Tanglin restaurants in various places could provide some help.

When things are decided, we just wait for things to develop.

Xun Yu hurried back, while Cao Ang continued to stay.

A few days after the incident, Cao Cao decided to send troops.

However, it was not so easy to send troops, Cao Cao's losses were not small, and tens of thousands of troops could be gathered at this time.

These tens of thousands of troops were shrinking back from other directions.

In addition, Cao Cao also re-recruited some troops.

He dared to send troops because there was no strong enemy around him for the time being.

At this time, Yuan Shu couldn't take care of it, and Yuan Shao couldn't send troops in the short term.

Cao Cao's revenge is true, and it is also true that he wants to annex Xuzhou.

However, Cao Cao did not send troops so quickly.

A few days later, Zhang Ming received accurate news that Cao Cao had decided to take revenge.

After receiving the news, Zhang Ming went to the newspaper printing house by himself.

"You're the editor-in-chief here?"

"Yes, my lord, my name is Wang Chao, thank you for your appreciation."

Where did Zhang Ming appreciate him, and only now did he know his name.

Zhang Ming rarely cares about specific things, and this time he came to the editorial office in person, which flattered a group of editors here.

"Well, in the future, all newspapers about the battle between Cao Cao and Xuzhou will need to be reviewed by me personally, and I will also write some comments under the pseudonym of Tanglin Lihuo."

"This is the first article, add it right away, and print more."

The editor-in-chief took Zhang Ming's comments.

The main thrust of this comment is that Cao Cao wants revenge, which is of course a matter of course.

But what does it have to do with the people, I hope that Cao Cao will not harm the people at that time.

In addition, I, Zhang Ming, have long looked at Tao Qian unpleasantly, and it is really a person who hides dirt and dirt, although Cao Cao killed Tao Qian's generation to avenge his hatred.

The central theme of Zhang Ming is that the officials in Xuzhou are not good things, but the people are innocent.

Zhang Ming is undoubtedly fishing in troubled waters, muddying the water.

He had to build an impression among the people before he could recruit the outcasts.

"Put the news of Cao Cao and Xuzhou on the front page."
