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

Chapter 362: The old ministers of the Han Dynasty have many problems. Luo Yuan invites Zhang Zhongjing to speak at the conference.
As bosses of famous companies, how could these princes not know the usefulness of socializing? Jiangling is an international stage. How could they miss such a good opportunity to showcase themselves?
Before, the stage was small, and it was just a gathering of a few people. The influence was just that, so it didn’t matter whether they came or not.

But it is still the same now. According to the statistics of the Military Control Office, there are more than one hundred century-old families who have come to Jiangling, and many old ministers of the Han Dynasty have come from Xuchang.

These people were also idle in Xuchang. When they heard that there was a great event in Jiangling and that Luo Yuan had sent them an invitation, they immediately rushed to Jiangling.

Even if Cao Cao was dissatisfied when he knew about it, he had to keep it to himself because he also had to maintain his image in front of the gentry all over the world.

Every day he took the old ministers of the Han Dynasty out shopping to watch erotic dances, and he treated them all.

However, Luo Yuan had to pay for this expense in the end. But it didn't matter, because after these people arrived in Jiangling, the benefits they brought were very substantial.

Xu Shu smiled bitterly. The situation was promising, but those old ministers of the Han Dynasty were quite funny.

"My Lord, several of my old ministers have been secretly asking me about our attitude."

Luo Yuan frowned: "What do they want to do? Do they want me to kill Meng De?"

Xu Shu nodded!
Just outrageous!
I still want to be a human being in the future. Besides, killing Cao Cao is for the emperor and for the so-called loyalty.

"Who are they?"

Xu Shu mentioned the names of several people, all of whom were old officials, but their official positions were ordinary!
Is this what Luo Yuan looks down upon?

So sick!

"Don't bother with them, they are just a bunch of immature people who are more likely to cause trouble." Luo Yuan looked down on those people. If you want to kill Cao Cao, then you go and do it. You just let others do it, and then they sit back and watch the show, and it is their credit that makes it happen.

They are obviously afraid of death but they have the appearance of loyal ministers. It's strange that the Han Dynasty had such loyal ministers.

There was no one who was truly capable in the whole court. Luo Yuan also looked down on people like Wang Yun. But after taking a look at him, he found that he was a rare capable person in the Han Dynasty.

This is speechless.

Luo Yuan lured the old ministers of the Han Dynasty here in order to let them persuade Cao Cao to let the emperor come to Jiangling and raise the standard of this event to the highest level. With this event, Jiangling will become the conference center of the world in the future and have a unique status!

This would invisibly elevate one's political status to the same level as Cao Cao. Without strength and influence, how could one be qualified to host such an event?

Ordinary princes naturally don't need any political image, they just need to take care of their own piece of land. But it's different for princes like Luo Yuan. Their strength has reached a certain level, so they need to manage their own image and ideas.

Can the idea of ​​fighting against heaven and earth be accomplished by one's own? Can it be accomplished by Jiangling alone?
Luo Yuan hopes that this conference will become a conference for the collision of ideas and convey Jiang Ling’s concept of fighting against heaven and earth.

It would certainly be ridiculous to say that you want to destroy the gentry in front of them, but what if a few traitors appear among them? That would be a success.

The combined effect of such a conference is immeasurable and more useful than many military victories.

Moreover, Luo Yuan will work with Cao Cao and other princes to determine the new currency system of the Han Dynasty and let the new money circulate. As long as Cao Cao and Sun Quan allow the new money of Jiangling to circulate in their control area, Luo Yuan will be able to strangle their emergency lifeline. As for Liu Bei, he is just a little Karami. The only person he needs to worry about is Kong Ming. This guy is too smart and will definitely see through his calculations.
But Luo Yuan has already thought of a way to deal with Kong Ming. He asked his master's wife to come forward and drain the prime minister, so that Kong Ming would have no energy to guess his plans.

The Prime Minister likes to travel by car, so his health must be exhausted.

Luo Yuan tried hard to think in a darker way!
In short, the situation in Jiangling is very good.

Xu Shu added: "Recently, many noble families want to cooperate with us. What do you think, my lord?"

"You decide on this matter, why bother telling me? You are the chief envoy. If we establish a country in the future, you will be the prime minister."

you ask me?
Xu Shu was also very happy when he thought about it, but he was very rational: "Originally, there is no need to report to the lord, I can make the decision, but there are too many people. There are more than 300 companies that want to cooperate with us to make porcelain, paper, medicine, and bicycles. Add up to more than 2,000 families of all sizes. With such a large number of people, I am afraid that Prime Minister Cao will be angry after knowing it. Half of them are northern families."

The northern gentry are all Cao Cao's subordinates. Boss Cao has a monopoly on the northern market. Now that the northern gentry have arrived in Jiangling, they can completely bypass Cao Cao and obtain technology from Jiangling!
I don’t need Boss Cao’s goods anymore!
This kind of thing really needs to be discussed with Boss Cao: "Let's talk about this matter after I have discussed it with Meng De. As for bilateral trade, I also need to tell Meng De that it is not appropriate for him to eat alone now!"

Xu Shu was not optimistic at all: "How could he agree to this!"

Cao Cao made a lot of money by monopolizing businesses such as white paper and porcelain. Having tasted the sweetness, how could he give up easily?

"What's the point of talking? Just find another way to make money." Luo Yuan said, "We have to let him make money. If he doesn't have money, the northern border will be in turmoil. This time we're talking to them about trade, borders, systems, and the northern barbarian issue. Prepare some documents on these and send a copy to Meng De so he can consider it first."

"Okay, so is it the same with Liu Bei and Sun Quan?"

"Yes, send one to each of the princes. Are Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu coming?"

"Come on, after the news spread that Liu Bei and Sun Quan were also coming to Jiangling, they decided to go south. Han Sui and Ma Chao also went south."

Great!
Everyone gives face.

Luo Yuan was very satisfied. All the famous military leaders of the Han Dynasty came. In addition to Han Xuan, the leaders of Wuling and other places around Changsha also came.

Luo Yuan arranged everything one by one. The situation of the meeting was based on the situation of meetings in later generations. First, the things to be discussed were prepared, and then handed over to Cao Cao and others for their review. If they felt that they were willing to talk, they would select a few people to talk with, and if they felt that they could not talk, there was no need to talk, and the discussion could be done after the battle.

This is order.
Medical care is also a focus. After Luo Yuan met Xu Shu, he summoned Zhang Zhongjing: "Sir, you must make a statement when the time comes!"

Zhang Zhongjing was confused and said to Luo Yuan: "I am a doctor, I am just treating patients, why would I say such a thing?

This is not delaying my training of apprentices. I am very busy. I have to write medical books, train apprentices, help Luo Yuan make fake medicine, and guide farmers in growing medicinal herbs!
Luo Yuan smiled and said, "Don't be angry yet. It will only take one day. The main thing is to introduce the plague to Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan and others, how the plague came about, and how to prevent it."

Zhang Zhongjing frowned. What's the use of that? Those people would care about this. "As long as they don't fight, the plague won't appear. Can they take what I said to heart?"
