I'm touched that he's thinking for me, Cao Cao, and even more so for my 'Brother Meng'!
Brother Xu, if you personally sell this information to Cao Cao, you don't have to give me a single cent.
Don't underestimate that 20%.
Even if it was 20% after 10%, it was still an astronomical figure!
Xu Wen wanted to earn this money, but why would he give me such a huge benefit?
And Brother Xu knows the location of this tomb.
But why didn't he sell it to the other dukes, but to me, Cao Cao?
Could it be because Brother Xu lives outside Xuchang City?
However, with a hero like Brother Xu, where in the world could he not go?
Cao Cao could not understand.
Xu Wen was very clear.
If he had faced Cao Cao directly and told him that he knew the location of the tomb…
Then, according to Cao Cao's personality, he would definitely capture and control me.
They became his tools to search for the ancient tomb.
How was this possible?
How could I, Xu Wen, be controlled by anyone?
Therefore, he needed a middleman.
And this middleman had to be someone he trusted.
Therefore, Brother Meng is the most suitable!
However, how could he push Brother Meng into the fire pit with his own hands?
Therefore, he thought of another good plan.
It could ensure the safety of him and Brother Meng.
"This plan requires Brother Meng to find a clever passerby and give him some money. He will reveal the approximate area of the tomb to Cao Cao.”
"Brother Meng, you are more familiar with Xuchang City than I am, so it is better for you to handle this matter than me.”
Cao Cao nodded.
"I'm sure Cao Cao will be very interested in this information."”
"After that, if Cao Cao succeeds in robbing the tomb, he will have to pay a tenth of the value of the tomb. Otherwise, he will not reveal the location of the second tomb!”
"Thinking about it, even if that Cao Cao is ruthless, he wouldn't kill a passerby who doesn't know anything.”
"But Brother Meng, you're behind the scenes, so you're safe!”
Unexpectedly, Brother Meng sighed.
There was a faint sadness in his heart.
It was very sad.
His heart ached.
Am I such a cruel and violent person in your heart?
However, I can't refute your words.
If I were Cao Cao and not Brother Meng, I would have captured you long ago!
That was why he sighed and felt sad.
The world knows that I love talent.
I really do love talents. I only want these great talents to be used by me.
Make contributions for me.
Brother Xu.
You're a hundred times more outstanding than those geniuses.
But I don't want to use you at all!
However, what he said was something else."Brother Xu, this plan is brilliant, but why did you sell the location of the tomb to Cao Cao?”
"The world calls Cao Cao a treacherous and ambitious man. Do you trust such a person?”
"Wouldn't it be better to sell it to the honest Liu Bei, Yuan Shao, and Ma Teng?”
Cao Cao said.
In fact, the purpose of his words was very simple.
He wanted to know why Xu Wen would only sell it to Cao Cao and not anyone else.
Or is there something different about me, Cao Cao, compared to the others?!
Now, I, Cao Cao, have such a wicked image in your heart.
Why did you have to sell me the information about the tomb?
After Xu Wen heard this, he suddenly stood up.
He stared into Brother Meng's eyes and said seriously,""Brother Meng! Why do you think so?"
"Do you really think that I asked Cao Cao to rob the tomb for my own benefit, for Cao Cao's benefit?”
As he spoke, he sighed continuously.
Brother Meng also raised his head. His eagle eyes flickered as he argued,"Isn't that so?"
"Wrong! He was gravely mistaken! Brother Meng, you've misunderstood me!”
As Xu Wen spoke, he let out a long sigh.
"I am doing this for the world, for the Han Dynasty, and for all the poor people!”
For the world, for the Han Dynasty, for all the poor people?
What do you mean? Brother Xu, what do you mean?
I, Cao, am all ears!
Xu Wen said indifferently.
"In the current world, heroes are splitting up, dukes are rising up, wars are going on, and the people are in dire straits.”
"Ma Teng is guarding Liangzhou, but look at Liangzhou. There are disaster victims everywhere, and everyone is starving. There are even soldiers who rob their homes. Although Ma Teng has the intention to control it, he is powerless.”
"Now look at Yuan Shu. He is extremely selfish and took the lead in claiming the title of emperor. Although he occupied the Jianghuai area and rich lands like Yangzhou, Yuan Shu was so licentious that he caused the wine and meat in the red gate to freeze to death! Is such a character worthy of my help?!”
As Xu Wen spoke, Cao Cao pondered.
There was still confusion in his eyes.
"Brother Meng! You say that Liu Bei is simple and honest, but he has already risen to power in Xiapi. He is not a good person. How can I, Xu Wen, help him? What if he bites me in the future?”
The voice ended.
Xu Wen looked at Cao Cao and said,"Although Cao Cao is a treacherous hero and is definitely not a good person, he has also made indelible contributions to the Han Dynasty!"”
As he spoke, he looked out the window at the smoke rising from the chimneys.
He smiled calmly and said," The world is now filled with famine. The people have exchanged their children for food. But look at Xuchang and the land that Cao Cao ruled.”
"It's not that everyone has meat to eat, but he has truly implemented the system of opening up wasteland. He and the Imperial Court have also been frugal, allowing the people to eat and eat.!”
For such a Cao Cao, I, Xu Wen, would help him, so what?!!
Brother Meng was shocked!
Brother Xu!
If everyone in this world understands me like you, I, Cao Cao, have no regrets!!!
