Chapter 288 Lobbyist Xu You
Guo Jia's gift was already very heavy, and he promised that there would be another big gift after the event was completed.

Xu You was originally a greedy person, but when he saw the box of goods in front of him, he was already greedy.

Hearing that there will be generous gifts afterwards, although he is not very sure, he still said to Guo Jia: "Feng Xiao and I are also old friends. If you ask me to do some small things, there is no need for such a generous gift."

"I know that Ziyuan is clean and honest." When Guo Jia said this, he wanted to slap himself hard from the bottom of his heart. Xu You has long been known to be greedy for money. He said that, but he was talking nonsense.

Knowing that it was against his will, Guo Jia still had to continue: "Ziyuan's life is poor, and if I ask you to do something, there is no guarantee that it will not delay your work. A little gift is nothing."

Then he lowered his voice, leaned closer to Xu You and said, "When it's done, I'll give it back five times."

Xu You never expected that Guo Jia would be so generous.

He was stunned for a moment, stared at Guo Jia for a long time, then laughed and said: "Since it is a gift of filial piety, it is inconvenient for me to refuse, otherwise it will not destroy the old friend's friendship?"

"What Ziyuan said is true." Guo Jia laughed along and asked Xu You, "I don't know what should I prepare to convince Fengji?"

"There is no need to prepare anything." Xu You said, "As long as I go, I will be able to persuade him not to oppose Feng Xiao any more."

Although Xu You is greedy for money, he never promises others easily.

Once he commits, he can probably do it, unless something extraordinary has happened that prevents him from completing it.

Guo Jia has worked with Xu You for some years, and Guo Jia is still familiar with him.

Having received the promise, he got up and said to Xu You, "I thank Ziyuan here first."

"You don't need to thank me with filial piety." Xu You said with a smile: "When you have a chance in the future, just ask Cao Mengde to thank me."

When Xu You spoke, there was no respect for Cao Cao in his tone. Xu Chu, who was next to him, suddenly had a bad face when he heard this.

However, at this time, it was time to ask for help. After hearing Xu You's words, Guo Jia not only did not express dissatisfaction, but laughed and said: "When I return to Xudu, I must tell the lord that Ziyuan will wait for him in person." thank."

Xu You also laughed, and patted Guo Jia's arm: "Feng Xiao just wait here, I will go to see Feng Ji now, and I will definitely bring you good news."

"It's too late." Guo Jia personally sent Xu You to the door of the room, and winked at Xu Chu.

Xu Chu walked over after sending Xu You to the door of the building.

After returning to the room, Xu Chu closed the door, and said to Guo Jia with an angry face, "That Xu You is really rude. He actually uttered wild words and asked the lord to thank him personally."

"Xu You is like that." Guo Jia replied, "Not only is he greedy for money, but he is also good at seeking favor from others. Anyone who knows him, no one will really like him."

"If it hadn't been for Feng Xiao's request to him, I would have twisted his head off just now." Xu Chu clenched his fists and said, "Thinking of this person's face just now, my whole body feels uncomfortable."

"Zhongkang don't get angry." Guo Jia said with a smile: "You also said that we are asking for something at this time. Even if the lord is here, if a few words of humiliation can avoid a fight with Yuan Shao, he will definitely choose Swallow your breath."

"I understand the truth, I'm just upset." When Xu Chu responded, there was still some resentment in his tone.

Knowing that he wouldn't cause any trouble, Guo Jia just smiled and didn't try to persuade him any more.
Don't talk about Guo Jia's side, just say that Xu You has arrived at Fengji's house.

Hearing that Xu You is coming, Fengji invites him to the study.

Xu You's status in the Yuan family's staff is not low, but after all, Feng Ji is one of Yuan Shao's most valued staff.

Come to see him, even Xu You has to lower his posture.

When he came to the study, Xu You saw Feng Ji and bowed his hands: "Yuan Tu is at home."

"What is Ziyuan coming to see me at this time?" Looking up at Xu You, Feng Ji asked.

"It's nothing, I just met Guo Fengxiao just now." Xu You replied, "He just arrived in Yecheng, and he got seriously ill..."

"I don't think he has any serious illness, but a heart disease." Feng Ji sneered, and asked Xu You: "Didn't Ziyuan take advantage of him and come here to be a lobbyist for him?"

"Me?" Xu You said with an innocent face, "I'm from Hebei, how can I be a lobbyist for him? I came to see Yuan Tu, just to ask how I plan to deal with Guo Fengxiao? He became so ill, if he died In Yecheng, there will be big troubles."

"The Lord is just planning to attack Cao Cao, so what if Guo Fengxiao dies in Yecheng?" Feng Ji asked indifferently, "Does Cao Cao still dare to come to avenge him?"

"Yuan Tu is really right." Xu You replied, "Guo Fengxiao is very important to Cao Cao. If he dies in Yecheng, Cao Cao will definitely send troops to attack."

"The Yuan family in Hebei has an army of hundreds of thousands, so why are they still afraid of Cao Cao?" Feng Ji laughed, and said to Xu You: "Ziyuan's worries are unnecessary."

"It's just Cao Cao, maybe you don't need to worry too much, but if you count Lu Bu..." At this point, Xu You stopped talking and stared at Feng Ji without blinking.

He mentioned Lu Bu, and Feng Ji asked, "What can Lu Bu do? Could it be that he dared to send troops to attack Hebei?"

"Has Yuan Tu ever thought about how long it took Lu Bu to crusade against Huainan?" Xu You didn't answer directly, but changed the subject.

Feng Ji frowned: "Although Yuan Shu in Huainan is a direct brother to the lord, you know that Yuan Shu is a man. Even the lord doesn't want to see him, so how can he gather talents under his command? Without talents, how can he resist Lu Bu?"

"Don't talk about Yuan Gonglu." Xu You said: "We only talk about Jiangdong Sun Bofu."

When Xu You mentioned Sun Ce, Feng Ji's face was much uglier than before.

Since Sun Ce exchanged Yuan Shu for three thousand soldiers and horses with the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, he conquered Jiangdong and other places in a short time in these years.

Just when the world thought that Sun Ce would take advantage of the situation to rise and become a tycoon, news came from Lujiang that Lu Bu besieged him in Wancheng and forced the Sun family in Jiangdong to surrender completely.

In the battle of Wancheng, Lu Bu fought cleanly.

In order to preserve Sun Ce, the Jiangdong Sun family had no choice but to surrender. From now on, Jiangdong and other places no longer belong to the Sun family, but to Lu Bu, who once captured Xuzhou from Liu Bei.

"What does Ziyuan mean?" Feng Ji asked Xu You after a moment of silence with a livid face.

"I don't mean anything." Xu You chuckled, and said in a low voice, "Yuan Tu persuaded the lord to attack Cao Cao, and it's inconvenient for me to disagree at the court meeting. We're just talking in private, so we shouldn't offend Yuan Tu. "
