Chapter 88 The Well-Informed Mr. Lin
Now I am racking my brains and trying to rely on public opinion to win the position of state pastor, but it is only possible.

And this state shepherd is still something that Cao Cao looks down on.

The relative gap between the two deeply hurt Liu Bei's heart.

Not to mention his only second confidant, who even denied his plan and asked himself to give up this idea. If he doesn't get angry, it means he has a good temper.

However, he still knew what was more important, and he couldn't alienate the relationship between the two just because of this matter, and Zhang Fei was just suggesting, and the decision was still in his own hands.

Suppressing his anger, Liu Bei said meaningfully: "Third silly brother, what does this have to do with us?

They wanted me to be the shepherd of the state and let me bring them a good life, so they went to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao might be displeased and kill them.

What happened to Cao Cao and his soldiers, and what died were people who had nothing to do with us.

From beginning to end, it has nothing to do with us. "

Really... is that so?Zhang Fei was stunned. Wasn't it because you asked them to find Cao Cao that they were killed?Didn't they want you to be a state shepherd so that you might die?How can it have nothing to do with you?

Zhang Fei subconsciously wanted to refute, but seeing Liu Bei's cold eyes, the words in his mouth suddenly froze.

He opened his mouth, but finally gave up.

"I see, brother."

"Good brothers." Liu Bei stepped forward and patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "When I become the governor of the state, you will naturally be my right-hand men. At that time, our three brothers will be able to truly make decisions for the people."

"En." Zhang Fei was still a little depressed, so he reluctantly agreed.

As for Guan Yu, he stood silently from the beginning to the end, wiping the weapons in his hands again, as if the conversation between the two had nothing to do with him.

Liu Bei didn't notice anything unusual about his two younger brothers. All his thoughts were on what would happen when Cao Cao traveled, his eyes were full of hope and his heart was full of expectations.

…………

The old man's surname is Lin. He read a few books when he was young, and later started a business. It is not too big, but it can barely feed and clothe a large family.

The shop where Zhang Fei buys food belongs to his family.

Now with his head down, he was thinking about what to do.

The man in his 40s next to him suddenly said:

"Old Lin, you don't really intend to do this, do you? I heard that Cao Cao has a bad temper, so will he attack us?"

Old man Lin raised his head and saw the man's sad face, so he said angrily, "I'm afraid, I know I'm afraid, I can't do anything well!"

Although the old man and the man don't have much relationship, they are relatives after all. A few decades ago, they were still a family, and their seniority is also high.

After the old man scolded and relieved his anger, he pointed out: "Do you think I don't know? You know? Of course I have my own considerations when I say these things.

In front of so many people, we went up to salute respectfully and said, no matter how cruel Cao Cao is, he would not attack us in front of everyone, unless he didn't want to be famous.

Who wants to be an official, who dares to ruin his reputation like this? "

"Yes, yes, I understand." The man replied submissively.

The old man crossed his legs, smiled triumphantly, and said slyly: "Besides, there is one more point that you didn't think of."

"What is it?" Not only the man, but even a few elderly people who were slightly younger than him asked curiously.

Not everyone who is older can have excellent experience and rich experience. Some of them have changed from being young and confused to being tactful.

The old man is obviously not like this, he is the best among this group of people, so most of the people who communicated with Liu Bei just now were also him.

"Think about it, if Liu Shijun really became our official and state shepherd, who would contribute the most?"

"Um... us?" someone asked uncertainly.

"Yes!" The old man slapped the table: "It's us, we have the most credit, we spoke before Cao Cao, and let Liu Shijun stay in Xuzhou as an official.

So, does Liu Shijun have a better impression of us than others?
Since the impression is better, will it benefit us?
Take a ten thousand step back and say, even if we don’t give benefits, then we helped him. This is a fact. When I spread the news, will Liu Shijun deny it?

Certainly not!

At that time, what benefits you can get depends on everyone fighting for it.

Among other things, the house that my family loves, the son of a bitch, is unwilling to sell it. If Liu Shijun becomes the state shepherd, and I spread the news again, how dare he not sell it?He was so scared that he pissed himself! "

The old man's words made everyone laugh, and even he couldn't help laughing, as if he was imagining a better life in the future.

Then he said slowly: "Of course, we can't embarrass Liu Shijun. We can't do things like buying and selling by force. Let's buy it with whatever money the house is worth, and give it to you for every penny!"

"Old man Lin is so proud, he will be happy to move to a new house when the time comes, so you have to treat us to dinner." Someone boasted.

"Please, please." Mr. Lin waved his hand, full of pride, as if the house had already been settled.

But he still knows which is more important, if Liu Bei does not do a good job, everything is empty talk.

"Big guy, you heard what Liu Shijun said just now." Old man Lin said slowly: "If this matter is done well, you will have everything you need, if you don't do it well, you will have nothing! Everyone should do their best. ah."

"Must, we must do our best." Everyone responded quickly, but someone asked: "Mr. Lin, is it really as simple as Liu Shijun said? Let's go up and give handwritten letters?"

"Of course not, stupid or not, if Liu Shijun decides everything, why do we need us?" Old man Lin saw that the man who was talking was still the man who had a blood relationship with him, so he frowned and said:
"Everything is planned, we don't need us, we just need to perfect this plan now."

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, closed his eyes and sipped his tea in the presence of an old god.

When everyone saw this, they knew what to say and boasted: "Mr. Lin, you are well-informed, do you have any ideas?"

"Being well-informed is not enough, it's just that you have traveled more places and seen more things." Mr. Lin waved his hand, pretending to be modest and said: "It's not a good idea, just some ideas."

"Oh? Please tell Mr. Lin carefully."

Firstly, everyone was fascinated by the big cake painted by Mr. Lin, and secondly, they had a good impression of Liu Bei. They sincerely wanted Liu Bei to come back as an official, and they couldn't care less about complaining about Mr. Lin for putting on airs. They stared at Mr. Lin and waited for him. say.

Under the gaze of everyone, Mr. Lin said calmly: "Just sending people up to deliver handwritten letters is definitely not enough. We also need other aspects to make the officials pay attention to our opinions."
