Three Kingdoms: My wife invited me out of the mountain to ascend the throne while living in seclusio

Jia Xu didn't feel guilty about cheating Liu Bei.

"Liu Bei is full of benevolence and morality, but in fact I don't really believe how benevolent he is!"

Jia Xu thought to herself, then shook her head.

"Back then Xuzhou Mu Taoqian asked Xuzhou to Liu Bei many times, but he refused!"

"On the surface, this matter seems to be Liu Bei's act of benevolence and righteousness, but in fact it can only show that this person is extremely smart!"

Jia Xu knew Liu Bei very well.

In his opinion, Xuzhou, where Liu Bei pushed but refused to accept Tao Qian, was just a manifestation of Liu Bei's cleverness, not that Liu Bei was so benevolent and righteous.

Because at that time, Tao Qian dared to give it, but did Liu Bei dare to accept it?
dare not! !
Because Xuzhou's geographical location is in the place of the Four World Wars, surrounded by heroes.

Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, etc. are all around, and everyone wants to eat this big piece of fat in Xuzhou!

It can be seen that Xuzhou at that time was like a fat sheep that a group of wolves wanted to eat, but how could Liu Bei, who was weak at that time, dare to take away the fat sheep in Xuzhou when all the wolves were coveting him?
Besides, Tao Qian himself has a very high prestige in Xuzhou. The local gentry all support Tao Qian, but not Liu Bei. If Liu Bei takes over Xuzhou
It's just that the nobles in Xuzhou don't support him, even if Liu Bei takes it, he will fall apart in an instant and collapse directly!

Liu Bei saw all this very clearly.

of course!

It was not until later...after repeated persuasion by Chen Deng, Kong Rong, Mi Zhu and others, that Liu Bei finally agreed to take charge of Xuzhou.

Why did you agree now?

Because Chen Deng represented the officialdom in Xuzhou, Kong Rong represented the officials and scholars, and Mi Zhu represented the local wealthy families in Xuzhou.

With the support of these people, Liu Bei naturally had the confidence to accept Xuzhou.

all in all.

Jia Xu feels that no matter how you look at it, it shows Liu Bei's intelligence, and has little to do with whether he is benevolent or righteous.

Jia Xu has made a special analysis on this, so he knows Liu Bei very well.

"In the era when the princes and heroes of the world are competing for the throne, Liu Bei wants to join in and get a share of it. This alone shows that he is not really benevolent and righteous."

"Those who compete for power in the world, how can it be done by a benevolent person?"

"Brother Jiuru is not like someone who fights for the world. I still believe that he is benevolent..."

Jia Xu stood in front of the window and looked into the distance. After some thinking, he found a reason for himself.

He and Liu Bei were pigeon fanciers anyway, and they communicated for a while.

Is there friendship without friendship?If he cheated for no reason, he would feel guilty.

and so!
If he wanted to cheat Liu Bei, he had to find a more convincing reason to seek peace of mind, which was his habit.

then.

Under the comparison between Liu Bei and Liu Chuan, he naturally chose Liu Chuan without hesitation.

So... Jia Xu's heart was at ease, so he was kind enough to pit Liu Bei and let Liu Bei attack Yizhou instead.

"Although I, Jia, have become the president of the newspaper, I am still that Jia Mou. That's right, it's the planner!"

The corners of Jia Xu's lips turned up, he was extremely satisfied with this.

"When Liu Bei wins Yizhou, I will give Brother Jiuru a surprise!"

Jia Xu laughed, he was quite happy.

"By the way, the newspaper has to be run well, but don't disappoint Brother Jiu Ru's expectations."

Jia Xu clenched her fists and made up her mind.

now.

The "Jingzhou Half Monthly News" was fully established in Jingzhou.

It has to be said that Jia Xu has absolute ability in this area, and Liu Chuan did not misunderstand him at all.

It is indeed full of difficulties for new things such as newspapers to become popular at the beginning.

But Jia Xu solved this problem perfectly.

At first, he positioned the newspaper on the major noble families in Jingzhou.

After all, the ability of the gentry to accept these emerging things is far stronger than that of ordinary people.

In addition, because Liu Qi is a state shepherd, he directly pressured the gentry in the name of the government to order newspapers.

Regardless of Liu Qi's prestige in Jingzhou, the nobles are still willing to give this little face.

It's just a newspaper!

It's not something valuable, so there's no need to contradict Liu Qi, the shepherd of the state, right?
So after the newspaper was published, it was logical to open up the market at the gentry level.

After the market opened up, unexpectedly, newspapers also became popular.

Because many people found that this so-called newspaper is really interesting!
All kinds of news, knowledge learning, and even weird stories are read on the above, which is all-encompassing.

So that in the end, all the gentry took the initiative to snap up, and there was no need to push at all.

As a result, the popularity of newspapers is getting wider and wider, and there is almost a wave of reading newspapers in Jingzhou.

then.

As more and more people read newspapers, the influence of "Jingzhou Half Monthly" is also growing.

Jia Xu is very satisfied with this, because it has achieved the goal that Liu Chuan said.

Jia Xu can be sure that if Liu Chuan wants to control the fishing boats of the people in Jingzhou at this time, it will be just a matter of flipping his hands.

"Brother Jiuru's brain is really a god, no one can match it!"

Jia Xu sighed.

And just as Jia Xu was sighing, a servant hurried in from outside.

"President Jia! It's not good, the big thing is not good!"

The servant held a small knife in his hand and said in a hurry.

"What's wrong? Could it be that the sky is still falling?"

Jia Xu's face turned cold, and she reproached.

What he can't understand the most is acting in a hurry.

"Yes Yes Yes Yes!"

The boy nodded repeatedly.

"President, just... just found a knife stuck in the door of the newspaper office!"

"Look, it's this knife, and there's a letter on it!"

The servant handed the knife to Jia Xudao.

"What does that mean?"

Jia Xu frowned, and took it suspiciously.

Someone actually stuck a knife in the door of the newspaper office. This was clearly a provocation and a threat!
On the territory of Jingzhou, who doesn't know that the government is standing behind the newspaper office?

To provoke a newspaper is to provoke the government, and to threaten a newspaper is to threaten the government!

Who is so courageous?
"Hmph! A certain person must be strictly investigated!"

Jia Xu muttered, then opened the letter...

Subsequently.

After Jia Xu read the contents of the letter, his face immediately twitched...

"Brother Jiuru, it was you who caused the trouble!"

"Hey, I regret to tell you that you were given a blade!"

Jia Xu was a little dumbfounded.
