Chapter 85: Decision

The second more

"Of course, I can also draw, by the way, big brother, this is a map of the waters of the Yellow River. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info I went to the household department to check a lot of information, as well as the Yellow River water situation in the academy. The gentleman said I should go for a walk, and the drawing cannot be based on imagination. I'm thinking of writing to you, and I'm going to take a walk and draw you a map of the waters of the Yellow River. Lu Jianan hurriedly took out some of the manuscripts he had drawn and showed them to his brother, showing that he had not been stupid in reading over the years, and that he had really learned.

"You drew these?" I don't know anywhere else, the Lu family on the Yellow River is doing business on the Yellow River, and they are really familiar with this water. I flipped through it casually, and the more I looked at it, the more shocked he became, he knew that his younger brother had never been back since he was sent to the capital to study at the age of eight. And in the years he was at home, where did he go out with his family's fleet. Where do you know about these water conditions? And at this time, according to what the book said, he actually drew seventy-seven-eighty-eight. Even the reefs in the water are marked, although there are still some differences, but this is not easy.

"Of course! Big brother, if I can finish drawing the map of the Yellow River, can you let me go abroad to study? ”

"Liuyang? Why? Bai Yixing hurriedly asked.

"My husband's son, son-in-law, and students are gone. They are all my classmates, some of them went to study medicine, some went to study mechanics, and my husband's son didn't think about what to study, I thought about it, I wanted to study geography. Lu Jianan's eyes flickered.

The four bandit kings didn't know what geography was, so they could only look at him blankly, speechless. However, Lu Xudong waved his hand, "If you want to go, go there!" It's just spending money, no need to draw any Yellow River maps, go early and return early. ”

"Thank you, big brother, by the way, what is Mr. looking for you? Let you go to Fujian? ”

"Why don't you tell us that he will show us this chart and how to defend it?" Zhu Cun's eyes narrowed slightly, teasing Lu Jianan.

"We don't have a sailor, so it's not impossible to deploy at sea, but the gains outweigh the losses. The best defense is to attack and let people know that we are not easy to bully. "Lu Jianan is Zeng Fan's student, and he has no lack of knowledge.

"So what do you think your teacher asked us to do?" Bai Yixing smiled and continued to tease him.

"The painstaking solitude of the teacher, how can mortals like me speculate." Just kidding, Zeng Fan is Lu Jianan's idol, how can he let Bai Yixing speculate on his mentor so lightly.

"Speak well, Uncle Bai is an elder." Lu Xudong snorted lightly.

"Yes, Uncle Bai, the junior is rude." Lu Jianan listened to his eldest brother's words very much, hurriedly stood up straight, slowly pushed out of his chest with both hands in fists, and then took a deep look, so that Bai Yixing looked straight, and then scratched his head, a little incompetent, "Good girl, the scholar just salutes like this?" ”

"Ha, ha, ha." Everyone laughed together, which made Lu Jiannan a little embarrassed.

"What if it were you, if it were you, what would you think when you saw us and the charts?" Lu Xudong finished laughing and looked at his younger brother.

"It should be with the help of your ability, big brother, to find out the authenticity of this picture!" Lu Jianan thought for a while, looked down at the chart, and was stunned again, "This is not a priest's chart, there are different data." ”

With that, he ran into the study and pulled out another set of drawings. Picked out one and spread it on the table, comparing the two pictures, the general shape is similar, but Zeng Fan's picture has more reefs and water flow lines. And the map of foreigners is still missing, several very important bays.

"That's why my teacher said a long time ago, don't believe in the book, let me see the real thing." Lu Jianan sighed.

"Fools, people deliberately don't tell you. This sea bend can shelter from the wind and waves, and the hidden ship type fights on this sea, and these important positions are the first opportunities for soldiers. If they lead us to a place where there is a reef, and our ship runs aground, we will be trapped and beaten by them. What a foreign devil! It's so deceitful. Sha Dabao scolded, they were all begging for a living in the water, and when they saw what was missing, they knew what people thought.

"The picture was drawn by others, and they bothered to do so, so why should they give it to you for free? You have to do your own thing, and relying on others is nothing! Lu Jianan immediately spoke, but immediately apologized to Sha Dabao, "I'm sorry Uncle Sha, this is not what I said, it was said by the teacher, he has always taught his disciples like this, don't rely on others." ”

"Your master is right, so there are some things that we can only rely on ourselves." Lu Xudong looked at the two charts, and made a decision in his heart, "Everyone, the Lu family of the Yellow River has decided to be a boy who makes trouble in the sea, and while he can still move, he will be arrogant." Lu didn't mean to persecute you, it was just our own decision. ”

"Master Lu, but there is still a year to prepare, you will make a decision now?" Zhu Cun frowned, speaking of which, there is no one who hates pirates more than the waters south of the Yangtze River. There is no lower limit to these pirates, and they originally went their own way without interfering with each other. However, there are many interfaces between their Jiangnan inlet and the estuary, and many of them go to sea from the inland. The pirates had to hand over the ships to them, or they would have crossed the line. Over the years, they have been ridiculed by pirates for these things, and they have also taken the opportunity to rob them of a lot of things. He is willing to destroy pirates, but he wants to destroy the pirates in Jiangnan, not Fujian. At this time, he was still struggling, calculating the gains and losses.

In fact, Zhu Cun understood very well that Zeng Fan came to them over, and he didn't intend to let them agree at all, and they had to agree if they agreed, and they had to agree if they didn't agree. If they agree, their respective territories, at least the imperial court will turn a blind eye and will not oppose them on a large scale. But if they didn't agree, those court officers and soldiers who bullied the weak and feared the hard would kill them in large quantities and rob them of their net worth. Zeng Fan won't even blink his eyes when he arrives, this is the fate of a bandit.

I know it, but he still wants to delay it a little longer, or if it can be delayed for a day.

"Lao Zhu, you have to change your temperament, you know that there is only one way, it is better to have a good face and make fun obediently!" Bai Yixing slapped his face, he could hold one side, and he was not that cowardly.

"Well said, well said, Lao Sha has been too comfortable all these years, and it is time for people to see that the sharks in my waves are not vegetarians." Sha Dabao laughed, always sticking out his head and stabbing his head, and shrinking his head was also a knife, he admitted it this time. But he's a cheerful person, and when he finishes speaking, he thinks it's good, and he can go crazy again with his youth, and his blood is a little hot when he thinks about it.

Lu Xudong smiled, looked down at the chart, and thought, "Master Zhu, you go back and build a ship first." I'm afraid that our inland ships will not be able to do it, and there should be one in your shipyard that can build small sea ships. We can't compare with foreigners, but we must be more flexible, and more, short and capable......"

"Big brother, no way!" Lu Jianan hurriedly shouted to stop, he was really sweating at this time, and felt that it was fortunate that the eldest brother had discussed it with him, otherwise, it would be really embarrassing to go out.
