The Three Kingdoms: A vicious plan was offered, and Liu Bei was stunned!

Chapter 233 Pang Shiyuan visits Jiangdong to promote porcelain, the nobles surge and Sun Quan is helpless
Pang Tong generously told his cousins ​​from the Jiangdong gentry that there was a place in Chaisang that was particularly suitable for making porcelain. As for who said it, it was of course Lord Luo.

Within a few days, the civil servants from Jiangdong talked about porcelain whenever they met.

"There is a place in Chaisang that can produce exquisite porcelain. Do you know where it is?"

"I don't know. Pang Tong said that it was the place of treasures in Longhua. He said that only when we need to help the young master go west!"

"Damn Pang Tong, so bad."

"That's right, I wonder if getting him drunk can lure him out?"

"No, I tried it. Pang Tong got drunk and slept with his mouth covered with cloth to prevent himself from saying it out loud!"

Do you have to hate me so much!

The civil officials and ministers in Jiangdong were all dumbfounded. They wanted porcelain, and now they heard that there was a place in Chaisang that could produce fine porcelain. Who wouldn't know where it was?

Once you know the place, you can occupy it first.

But Pang Tong just kept them hanging and did all kinds of cool things.

When Zhang Zhao saw that the civil officials were all talking about porcelain, he knew that everyone was interested in it. He was also interested because it was porcelain.

Don’t we need porcelain for ancestor worship? Don’t we need porcelain to be buried with our ancestors after we die?

It’s a honor to be able to use porcelain!
Zhang Zhao didn't want to fight in the first place. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to live a good life and enjoy wealth and glory?

It just so happens that Sun Quan is the one who is meddling in other people's affairs.

Now that there is the benefit of porcelain, Zhang Zhao is also willing to make peace with Luo Yuan. After all, it is Sun Quan who is embarrassed, not the Jiangdong gentry.

Zhang Zhao also started discussing with these ministers. Porcelain is a good thing.

Jiangdong cannot be without!

"We have to convince the lord, otherwise Luo Yuan will definitely not be willing to give us the porcelain!"

"We don't want to fight in the first place, it's all because of our lord..."

Zhang Zhao looked at the other person and told him to shut up and stop talking nonsense.

After thinking for a while, he went to see Sun Quan!
"My Lord, let's make peace with Luo Yuan!"

Sun Quan looked at Zhang Zhao speechlessly. He did not expect Zhang Zhao to speak so directly: "Those people are talking about porcelain. Don't you think I don't know that you have also been bribed by Luo Yuan?"

Sun Quan naturally knew that almost everyone in Chaisang was talking about porcelain within a few days!

Luo Yuan had no intention of concealing the news, and Pang Tong walked in and out of every door openly and with a swagger.

Zhang Zhao asked, "My lord, don't you want it?"

“What if I don’t want it?”

Zhang Zhao smiled and said, "My lord, why do you have to do this on purpose? Porcelain is a good thing. Cao Cao got porcelain and fired it day and night in Yecheng, collecting countless money. Money is the foundation of a country. Although Jiangdong is rich, if it gets porcelain, its national strength will be further improved. Luo Yuan asked Pang Tong to come to Jiangdong to spread the news of porcelain. This is his sincerity!"

It doesn’t matter whether it is sincere or not, doesn’t it all depend on who says it?

Zhang Zhao said: "When our army is strong enough, Luo Yuan will not dare to look down on Jiangdong. Exchanging the lord's sister for porcelain will be of great benefit to Jiangdong. It can also unite the Jiangdong nobles. The lord should know that the nobles have a lot of complaints about us!"

Of course Sun Quan knew this because of the troubles left behind by Sun Ce. Sun Ce bullied the Jiangdong gentry too harshly back then.

After he came to power, he made important use of Zhang Zhao, which greatly eased the conflict between the Jiangdong gentry and the Sun family. However, Jiangdong still needed to rely on the gentry to govern the area.

The hatred among them was not so easy to resolve. It was just because he had military horses.

Most of the civil servants in Jiangdong came from the gentry. Without the support of the gentry, Jiangdong would be completely unstable.

'

Zhang Zhao wanted Sun Quan to agree to use porcelain to win over the Jiangdong gentry and resolve the feud between the Sun family and the Jiangdong clans.

For Sun Quan, porcelain not only makes money, but can also be used to unite the people. However, if he wants porcelain, he has to bow to Luo Yuan and ask him for help.

He wanted to get angry, but he felt like he was surrounded by invisible barbed wire and was surrounded by Luo Yuan on all sides.

Luo Gongqi is such a disgusting person.

Not only did they bully us militarily, but now they are using porcelain to bribe the Jiangdong gentry.

If he didn't agree, the nobles would definitely be angry and even become alienated from him.

If you don't do anything to benefit the nobles, why should everyone support you? Do people support you now because you are awesome? Of course not, it's because there are benefits.

You can be an official, reap benefits, and exploit the people.

But can those benefits be compared with porcelain?

Cao Cao could sell a piece of porcelain for a million dollars. If he could make porcelain himself, how much profit would that bring?
For the benefit of porcelain, rebellion means nothing!
During the chaotic times at the end of the Han Dynasty, there were rebellions in Jiangdong. Even now, people in the south of Jiangdong still rebel from time to time, and there are many powerful people.

Sun Quan was unwilling to accept this; Luo Yuan no longer played with the army, but instead used a soft knife to kill people, specifically stabbing Sun Quan in the heart.

"What should I do since I have already promised Liu Bei?" Sun Quan was still trying to find an excuse.

Zhang Zhao smiled and said, "The lord has many women in his family, so let Shaojun marry Luo Yuan. As for Liu Bei, he can just find someone else, or choose a woman from the nobles for the lord to be a fake one. Liu Bei doesn't know either."

Do you insist on negotiating with Luo Yuan?

All these ideas came out.

Sun Quan looked at Zhang Zhao speechlessly and said angrily, "Don't you know what I mean? I hate Luo Yuan, how can I be his relative?"

Zhang Zhao's face twitched and he said, "My Lord, as a ruler, how can you make decisions based on your own preferences?"

Are you still the lord? You are not qualified like this.

If you act like this, how can the people below believe that you can lead them to win the final victory?
As a lord, you have to talk about interests!
"If it was Cao Cao, what do you think he would do?" Zhang Zhao said, "Cao Cao married his eldest daughter to Gong Qi. Please think about it!"

Look at Lao Cao, what a great job he did!

No matter how shameless you are, it won't hinder Lao Cao from selling porcelain and making a profit, right?
Sun Quan was so angry that he couldn't help but said, "Do you think I'm not as good as Cao Cao?"

He kicked the case over, drew his sword and cut it in half with one strike!
Zhang Zhao was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and dared not say anything more.

Sun Quan stared at Zhang Zhao fiercely: "You also accepted Luo Yuan's benefits, but you actually finished speaking for Luo Yuan. I am really disappointed!"

Zhang Zhao endured the fear and said, "I am thinking about Jiangdong, not just myself. My lord, don't you know that the Jiangdong nobles and ministers have already known about the porcelain? This news is unstoppable. People's hearts are moved by money. If my lord does not follow the trend, I am afraid that the nobles will be alienated!"

"Luo Yuan used porcelain as bait to disturb the hearts of Jiangdong officials. We all know that this is his plan, but we can't break it. This is an open conspiracy. If the lord doesn't agree today, tomorrow some nobles will secretly cross the river to find Luo Yuan. Over time, how can the lord lead Jiangdong?"

"Now all Luo Yuan wants is a sister of your lord. If your lord agrees, you can get the benefits of porcelain, which is of great benefit to the country. You can also make peace with Luo Yuan and stop the war. The Yangtze River is a convenience for Jiangdong, and it is also a convenience for Luo Yuan. Next year, Cao Cao will go south. If Luo Yuan joins forces with Cao Cao, and Cao's army goes down the river, what will Jiangdong do?"
