Long Xiang was surprised at first that the information was so detailed, and he said in his heart, how could the fishing boat reconnoiter so far?

And the appearance of Liu Ye's scouts made everything reasonable.

Considering the suddenness of Jingzhou's troops, Long Xiang instinctively guessed that someone was stirring up trouble, and Cao Cao was undoubtedly the biggest suspect.

Cao Thief and Liu Biao bullied Sun Quan together, and I don't know if Zhou Yu can turn the tide.

Long Xiang didn't care about Yuzhang's victory or defeat, and whoever won would be beneficial to Liu Bei.

"What other important news does Ziyang have?"

Cao Cao frequently used tactics against Jingzhou, not only named Liu Qi as the Taishou of Hanzhong, but also asked Liu Biao and General Guan to send troops to attack Zhang Lu;

Zi Yang suspected that in the battle of Yuzhang at this time, Liu Biao was also instigated by Cao Cao, but the matter of the western expedition to Zhang Lu was too strange, and Zi Yang and Xu Shu, the newly recruited military advisor of the emperor's uncle, did not understand"

Before Lu Su could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by Long Xiang's surprised voice.

"Xu Shu? Xu Yuanzhi? ”

"Yunqi knows about him?"

Lu Su looked at him with suspicion, and said in his heart I don't even know Xu Yuanzhi, where did you know about it?

"Ugh"

Long Xiang was stunned for a moment, and immediately became sloppy.

"Hey, I forgot who I heard about it."

Lu Su didn't delve into it, but nodded in agreement: "Ziyang said that he is superior to others, and he knows the battle formation and the art of war, and he is suitable for military division in all aspects." ”

"Hmm." Long Xiang said in the first words: "Since Lian Ziyang has recognized it, there must be real materials, and it is understandable to serve as a military advisor." ”

Lu Su frowned and said: "Cao Cao's serial plan is very strange, on the surface, it is to make trouble for Jiangdong and Jingzhou, but in fact, he must want to trap the two opponents, so that he can free up his hands to deal with Yuan Shao, but it is extremely unreasonable to pull Zhang Lu into the water, because it is impossible for Liu Biao or General Guan to go to Hanzhong to waste troops, and let Cao Cao take advantage of the weakness."

"Ziyang is going to ask us about the plan?"

Long Xiang smiled bitterly: "He and Xu Yuanzhi can't figure it out, I can't think of it by nature, what about you?" ”

Lu Su shook his head continuously: "I haven't figured it out, but Ziyang is not asking for a plan, he is worried that Cao Cao's serial plan will have a backhand, and this time he sent someone to Huainan in the hope that we will find a way to establish contact with Uncle Liu Huang, and the two sides can cooperate at a critical time." ”

Long Xiang Zhengse said: "Even if Ziyang doesn't say it, we are doing it, it seems that Xu Du's underwear shop will be opened as soon as possible, and it is time to make a name for himself." ”

Sun Quan sent an envoy to Xudu to give gifts, and splashed the dirty water of the sky-high underwear to Hefei, and now Sun He has been ransomed.

Long Xiang felt that it was time to expose the scam, and it was also time to build the intelligence station in the Central Plains.

Like Sun Quan's situation at that time, underwear was very popular with Cao, but because the number was not enough to distribute wives and concubines, Liu Fu had asked Liu Fu to send people to Hefei several times to spread the word.

I hope that Long Xiang will send someone to open a store in Xudu, but he is really sleepy and someone will send a pillow.

The Jiangdong intelligence station was already in operation, and Lu Su originally planned to transfer Yao Xuan to Xudu, but unfortunately he was immediately rejected by Long Xiang on the grounds that Yao Xuan was already well connected in Wu County.

Yao Xuan's rash transfer outweighed the losses, so he planned to re-select by himself, but he didn't make a decision for a long time.

Seeing that Long Xiang's old matter was brought up again, Lu Su hurriedly reminded: "Xu Du is mixed, and it is more difficult to build an intelligence station than Wu County, and the person in charge must have the ability to adapt, who will be sent by Yun after thinking about it?" ”

"Maybe you have to let Luo Yicheng out."

"Luo Sima is the favorite general of the Tang Dynasty, and he has married a wife and had children in Hefei, I am afraid it will be difficult to come back to Xudu, and it is even more feasible to bring his family, do you want to consider candidates again?"

Luo Yicheng relied on his military merits to become a military commander in the city defense army, commanding 400 soldiers under his command, and had settled down in Hefei, at this time he went deep into the tiger's den and was a little cruel to him, so Lu Su was more hesitant.

Long Xiang rubbed his temples and said in a deep voice: "When a general doesn't have to go to the battlefield, going to Xu Capital to take charge of the Central Plains Intelligence Station is more important than the military Sima, I will personally call for questioning later, but if he has the slightest hesitation, how about re-selecting and dispatching personnel?" ”

"It's fine." Lu Su bowed slightly, and asked again: "The Jiangdong intelligence station can stand up, and Sun Quan has a big personal reason, after all, you shared half of his money, but this trick is not useful to Cao Cao, has Yunqi thought about bribing anyone?" ”

"Bribe whom?" Long Xiang smiled leisurely: "Whoever wants to make money, anyone can do it." ”

Lu Su frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

Long Xiang replied: "Xudu's shop model can no longer be as stingy as Wu County, the population of the Central Plains is larger, the nobles are numerous, and the money that can be earned is more, so I have to change the model and give the Central Plains Intelligence Station the permission to join." ”

"Join?" Lu Su was stunned.

Long Xiang nodded and explained: "That is, we will send people to Xudu to open the head office, so that the children of the noble and wealthy families who want to make money can directly join in and open their own stores, and the head office is responsible for collecting orders and distributing goods. ”

Lu Su bowed slightly: It sounds like it is very powerful, how much profit do you plan to give to the franchisee? ”

"Same as Sun Quan."

Seeing Long Xiang smile and raise his right palm, Lu Su took a deep breath and muttered, "Fifty percent? Your pen is too big, I'm afraid Xu Duxun will rush to it. ”

"It is necessary to tie them up with interests, so that the Central Plains Intelligence Station can take root." Long Xiang looked serious.

Lu Su thought about it for a while, and then showed a worried expression: "Yunqi tied them up with interests, are you worried that the money you earned will not come back?" But Cao Cao has a lot of resourceful people around him, and when a large number of materials are transported to Hefei, it will inevitably cause discomfort to many people, do you have any way to avoid it? ”

Long Xiang replied: "As long as you don't transport strategic materials such as grain, weapons, and armor, cloth, medicinal materials, farm tools, copper coins, gold and silver, etc., there is no problem. ”

"Cloth, medicinal materials, farm tools are fine, if too much copper money, gold and silver inflow, resulting in a lot of money in the market in Hefei, maybe it will push up prices."

Hefei has been open to the market for a long time, Lu Su is very familiar with the economy and people's livelihood, and is worried that the money earned by underwear is too easy, which will greatly impact the market in Hefei.

Long Xiang smiled mysteriously after hearing this, pointed at Lu Su and said, "Who said that copper coins, gold and silver should all flow into the market?" You can control it yourself, I plan to finance money to build weapons and armor, so I don't have to mine and smelt by myself. ”

"That's a good idea." Lu Su nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Long Xiang continued to add: "We have a small territory and a small population, so don't learn from others to use the army, it is most appropriate to take the route of elite soldiers, and wait until the counterattack on the Central Plains in the future, it is best to ensure that all our people are armoured." ”

"All armored? That's going to be a big difference, that's good, but"

Lu Su changed his words and asked: "Jiangdong sole operation model, Xu Du franchise model, I'm curious about Jingzhou?" ”

Long Xiang waved his hand lightly: "It's the same as Xu Du." ”

Lu Su asked: "Is it also the head office and franchise?" ”

"No, there is no head office, only franchise."

Long Xiang shook his head and finished speaking, and then added: "Aren't Cai Mao and Kuai Yue closely related to Cao Cao?" Xu Du is such a wealthy franchise store, is he not allowed to open it to Jingzhou? ”
