Chapter 72: Liaodong sets sail

"Taishou-sama, please take a seat!"

Gongsun Du glanced at all corners of the room, although there was no magnificence, but it was definitely clean and tidy, and at the same time gave people a sense of security. He refused to say about the kindness of the Ninth Taigong: "Although the degree is too guarded, but in the coming years, the virtue is thin, and it is only shallow, which is not enough to guard a county, but Your Majesty Longen, can only be cautious and seek no fault; Second, the old man is Gao Delong, who has good talents, and he is the master here. In this way, how can Du occupy the lord and sit on that throne? ”

Hearing this, the ninth prince hesitated, but seeing that Gongsun Du's face was full of determination, he could only nod in agreement, but his eyes when he looked at Gongsun Du were no longer as cold as in the village, and there was a slight change.

Not much has changed, but perhaps, this change is the straw that sometimes breaks the camel's back!

"So, the old man is ashamed!" Jiu Taigong said so, but he still asked people to remove the position of the head, and he did the opposite of Gongsun Du, that is, the left head. (You know it's one table per person at this time!) In addition, the Han is respected by the right. οΌ‰

After each of them took their seats, the ninth prince, as the master of this room, first raised his glass and said apologetically: "Lord Taishou, for today's events, the old man is deeply sorry, the little five sons are all villagers who have never seen the world, so that they collided with Lord Taishou, please forgive me!" In order to apologize, the old man did it first as a respect! ”

This was already said by the Ninth Taigong before, but now in this situation, it seems more solemn and sincere.

Gongsun Du was already full of "desire" for Linshui Village, so he would not refuse, and he also raised his glass and said: "The old man is polite, and he will call a certain Shengji." As the saying goes, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, and Du didn't blame them, otherwise, they wouldn't have nothing to do now. ”

Jiu Taigong nodded, he already knew everything about Gongsun Du defeating Jiang Yi and them alone in a short period of time, and he already knew it clearly from the villagers who came back to report the news before, and it was precisely for this reason that he did not let the other people in the village hide, and he also went to the village to greet Gongsun Du in person. However, Gongsun Du's words were still a little surprising to him, so he turned his head and shouted at Jiang Yi at the end: "What are you doing in a daze, although Shengji has forgiven you, shouldn't you apologize?" ”

Gongsun Du heard that Jiu Taigong did not call himself "adult" anymore, but called "Shengji", he seemed a little closer, and he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and said secretly: Okay, it seems that the possibility of persuasion is three points greater.

Jiang Yi would not disobey the words of the Ninth Taigong, and Gongsun Du's humble attitude also made him understand that he was wrong, it was he who spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, so he simply got up and made a big gift to Gongsun Du.

"Taishou-sama! The villain is formless, so that he collided with the adult, please forgive me. ”

Then he picked up his glass and drank it all.

Gongsun Du raised his glass and came to Jiang Yi, and said sincerely: "Let him go over in the past!" In the future, I hope we can work together! ”

Working together in the future?

Jiang Yi didn't understand what he meant, but he nodded anyway.

Gongsun Du smiled with satisfaction, drained the wine in the cup, patted Jiang Yi's shoulder again, and returned to his seat.

In fact, even the Ninth Taigong didn't understand why Gongsun Du attached so much importance to them, as for the fact that he wanted them to move to Liaodong, he also knew about it, but no matter where they moved, they were just a group of ordinary people, at most, they knew how to build ships. But shipbuilding, what is it?

It's a craftsman! It is the craftsman who ranks behind the farmer, that is to say, it is the first class than the farmer.

This is the sadness of the times, the aircraft carrier builders are limited by the times, just a bunch of people who are looked down upon. This is also the reason why everyone later knew that Gongsun Duweijia was overseas, but no one knew about the warship builders who were used for fighting and transporting at sea. If it weren't for Gongsun Du's previous life being Li Yuanba, he wouldn't know either.

"In the countryside, the hospitality is not good, don't mind the promotion!" Then, the Ninth Taigong looked at the rather shabby wine and food on the table, and said apologetically.

Except for Gongsun Du's table, which had a half-sized fish on the table, which was considered a bit of meat, there were only two or three stacks of wild vegetables on the table of Jiu Taigong and Jiang Yi and others, and a bowl of gruel with I don't know how many rice grains there were, and nothing else.

Shabby, very shabby!

Gongsun Duhun smiled indifferently, got up and picked up the fish on the table, first came to the table of the ninth prince, and gave him the fish tail regardless of his obstruction, and then gave the fish identity to Jiang Yi.

"The tail of the fish is the essence of all the flesh on the fish, because it is live meat, the only fish meat that can move, and all the old men should eat more." Gongsun Du returned to his seat and said, "Du Du loves the fish head, so the fish body still has the Lao Jiang brothers to do it for you!" ”

"Speaking of which, you may not believe it, but your life in Liaodong is not much better than your current life, the only difference is that you can manage enough and eat enough."

Jiang Yi was originally entangled in the problem of fish and meat, but when he heard Gongsun Du's words, he was instantly diverted, and said in disbelief: "How is it possible? Lord Taishou is Taishou no matter what, how can it be the same as what we eat! ”

Although the Ninth Taigong did not speak, he was obviously very interested in this, and his surprised gaze fell on Gongsun Du.

Gongsun Du smiled bitterly and said: "Liaodong has suffered a lot from foreign races, if it weren't for Du's order to go to Liaodong, it would still be a question whether Liaodong would still exist." Even so, the degree only temporarily stabilized the situation in Liaodong, and as for the previous ones, there was nothing that could be done. If this is not the case, Du will not ask for orders to go south. ”

"What?" Jiang Yi exclaimed.

Even the Ninth Taigong opened his mouth wide, obviously shocked. However, this is just Gongsun Du's simple, even one-sided statement about Liaodong, if they know that there are only four counties in Liaodong, and three of them are still only nominal facts, I don't know if they will be scared stupid.

Gongsun Du ignored the surprise of the two and continued to say something that surprised themβ€”

"Although Liaodong is in chaos now, Du still very much hopes that Linshui Village can move to Liaodong. As long as you agree to Du's request, Du guarantees that he will provide enough food for each of your families and every family. All you need to do is use your shipbuilding skills to build enough warships for you. ”

"Huh?"

Jiu Taigong and Jiang Yi exclaimed almost at the same time. It's just that Jiang Yi's voice was too loud, directly covering the voice of the Ninth Taigong completely, and he was too excited to hear it.

However, the reasons why Jiu Taigong and Jiang Yi were surprised were different.

Jiang Yi, a young man, is the strong labor of the family, and the burden of the family's livelihood falls more on their shoulders. And in the eyes of the gentry and the powerful land annexation in recent years, the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are even more complicated, otherwise they would not have lived so hard, and even entertaining Gongsun Du could only take out a fish that was still a little shapely. Yes, for Gongsun Du's words to ensure that each of their families has enough food to eat, this made him almost cry.

Jiu Taigong is different, he has lived for decades, and he has not had a few years to live, although he values food, but he attaches more importance to what Gongsun Du said about "shipbuilding".

No one knows the south ship and the north horse, the south man rides a boat, and the north man rides a horse. But Gongsun Du asked them to go to the north to build ships, how to hear how it feels incredible! Even if you want to build it, it's in the south, what's the matter with running to the north? Is it still possible to row a boat on the grassland?

The Ninth Taigong is now full of question marks.

Gongsun Du saw the change in the expressions of the two, and smiled in his heart: Hey, have you stopped? Well, it's already halfway there.

"In recent years, the imperial court has changed dramatically, and the people everywhere are just gritting their teeth and insisting, but I am afraid that it is almost the same as when the First Emperor did?"

"So, when you move north, you are actually away from this dangerous place. As for the alien races of the Northβ€”"

Gongsun Du said proudly: "If it's not nonsense, as long as you give Du five years, you can defeat them one by one." Moreover, not so long ago, we just wiped out a Buyeo cavalry of several thousand people. ”

"But, in addition to that, Du hopes that you can build enough warships to set sail with Liaodong!"

Gongsun Du's words had been made very clear, but the Ninth Taigong did not agree immediately, but convened the whole village the next day and discussed it together, and then agreed. After all, it is a very huge temptation to be full, and now almost every household eats one meal, and when they are hungry for three meals, who can endure it?
