Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Chapter 90 The Final Choice, Dong Zhuo's Doubt

"Tsk!"

Cao Ang shook his head while clicking his lips.

Spread out the map and pretend to look at it.

He didn't expect to get the official position of governor from Dong Zhuo, after all, it's useless to him.

Unlike in the future when the princes fought in a melee, there may be three or four governors in a state, and the positions of the governors are all constant now.

One radish and one hole, there are only thirteen holes in the world, and an iron radish like Liu Yan can't even be kicked.

So after some calculations, there are only a few pits that can be moved, and none of them can be easily selected.

If one wants to serve as governor or state shepherd, one must have a certain strength in the local area, and at the same time have a certain reputation and prestige in this world.

Otherwise, even if Dong Zhuo controls the court and writes an edict to him, and transfers Cao Cao to serve as the governor of a certain place, he will have no control over the place.

It is already quite remarkable to be able to grasp the county where the state capital is located.

That being the case, it would be better to simply take the position of a prefect, so that he can also control a county without facing the constraints of the prefects of other counties.

As for which county to choose, Cao Ang had already made up his mind.

After pretending to rummage through the map for a while, he clicked on the location of Jiyin County in Yanzhou with his finger, and said to Dong Zhuo with a smile on his face.

"Then choose here. Although it's not a rich county, it's not too bad."

For nonsense like Cao Ang, Dong Zhuo is now automatically immune, and some of them are good for you to pick, and there are so many forced words.

He ignored Cao Ang's enthusiasm.

Dong Zhuo just picked up the map and glanced at the location of Jiyin County, then asked curiously.

"Why Jiyin County? I thought you would choose Hejian Kingdom in Jizhou or Pingyuan County in Qingzhou."

These two counties and Balhae County are neighbors and have a large area of ​​border.

However, it is precisely because of this that Cao Ang would never choose these two places. He was really forced to death by Yuan Shao, how can he develop?

Leaning on the table and changing into a more comfortable position, Cao Ang answered Dong Zhuo's doubts.

"In case Yuan Shao wants to raise troops to resist in the end, after I fight him, if I can't beat him, I can retreat with my troops and return to Luoyang to inform you of the news."

"But if the family business is all in Bohai County, then I will run away in a fight and my family will be gone. Do you think I will do such a stupid thing?"

"It's better to set up the county under my father's jurisdiction in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Even if there is a conflict with Yuan Shao, he won't be able to stretch his arms so far. My father and son still have a way out."

Reasonable.

Dong Zhuo immediately believed this explanation.

It fits Cao Ang's character very well.

When doing things for Dong Zhuo, he had to take into account his own interests. This was definitely something Cao Ang could do, and Dong Zhuo was completely suspicious.

"Okay, that's the place."

"I'll take a walk in the palace later, and after the transfer order is written, I'll send someone to take you to your house."

Roll up the map on one side.

Dong Zhuo said jokingly, "With a son like Ni, Cao Mengde can wake up laughingly from sleep. He sits at home and does nothing, and here he becomes the prefect of a county."

"Even the salary can eat a lot more every year!"

Having said that, Dong Zhuo couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

"It's a pity, why don't I have a son like you, otherwise the old man can lie at home and relax, just waiting for the good news to come."

Cao Ang looked like he had forgotten his friendship.

He reached out and patted Dong Zhuo on the shoulder.

Comfortingly said: "What's the big deal, you can't have a son like me, but you can find a grandson-in-law like me!"

"Isn't that a meaning?"

Dong Zhuo was stunned.

There was no reaction in my head.

But after a few seconds.

Dong Zhuo couldn't help laughing out loud.

"I knew that you kid was playing with my Xiaobai's idea, but the old man didn't object."

"If you want to, go and coax Xiaobai to agree. If this can be done, the old man will be happy to see it happen."

Dong Zhuo is a sensible person.

Although his granddaughter is his treasure, he has loved this little girl very much since he was a child.

But girls always want to marry when they grow up.

Instead of choosing from east to west and finding a husband who doesn't know what is good or bad, it is better to use Dong Bai to tie Cao Ang to the chariot of the Dong family group.

This kid is definitely a talent.

Has the vision, has the means, but the heart is still dark!
Such a person can do well wherever he is placed, if he has this kind of talent to assist him, why not worry about the big things?
……

After the two agreed.

Cao Ang said goodbye to Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo sent him all the way to the gate of the mansion, and when Cao Ang turned to leave, he arched his hands in front of him and saluted Cao Ang.

"Zixiu, the mountains are high and the road is far away. I will be waiting for your good news in Luoyang City!"

Cao Ang couldn't help being stunned.

Even though the positions of the two are completely different, he is destined to embark on a zero-sum road where only one side can stand by fighting against each other with Dong Zhuo.

But at this moment, he also had to admit that Dong Zhuo was indeed a very courageous person at certain moments.

When accepting Lu Bu, Neng took the initiative to kneel down on one knee and salute Lu Bu.

I can also be so sincere when I say goodbye to myself.

It's a pity that this is the current Dong Zhuo, and this guy has already shown signs of being corrupted. It won't be long before he is no longer the same person.

Cao Ang also bowed.

Then he turned and got on the carriage.

Could this be the last time the two meet?
……

Sitting on the carriage back home.

Cao Ang calmed down a little.

Then he also took out a map of the world from his arms, looked at the counties marked on it, and nodded secretly.

In fact, Cao Ang struggled for a long time on the issue of which one to choose as the basic market for the initial fortune.

First of all, this place must be adjacent to Sili, but not within Sili, so that it can get rid of Dong Zhuo's shackles, and can respond quickly when attacking Dong Zhuo in the future.

The second is to be familiar with people, and it is best to call in helpers in this place to develop quickly.

There are only a few counties that meet these conditions at the same time.

Among them, Chenliu County, Yingchuan County and Peiguo, my hometown, are good choices.

It's just that in the future, the prefect of Chenliu will be Zhang Miao, who is a good friend of his father Cao Cao, and he can be regarded as a staunch ally before the killing of the border makes him feel rebellious, so there is no need to grab the territory.

As for Yingchuan County, there are too many local nobles, and they are too numerous to count. I am afraid that it will take a lot of effort to sort out these relationships. How can there be time to develop?

Peiguo is even more located in the hinterland of Yuzhou. Although the old family is familiar with it, and the Cao family is also a local tiger in Qiao County, it is not suitable regardless of the geographical location or the overall situation in the future.

So think about it.

In the end, Jiyin County was selected.

Not only is this place close, but it can also form a linkage with Chenliu County, multiplying its power!
