Smuggling is not impossible, but it involves great risk.

The royal sailor's record of exterminating all the bandits in the middle of the sea and cutting down the grass and eradicating the roots in one day has already caused a sensation in the south of the Yangtze River, and the new ships in the shipyard have been laying keels one after another, and the elite soldiers drawn from all over the Yangtze River are about to arrive, and the strength of the sailor is increasing day by day.

When the scale of the sailors reaches more than 30,000, it is enough to crisscross the East China Sea and be invincible.

In this case, smuggling is obviously an extremely unwise move, and once it is targeted by the sailor, the consequences are unimaginable......

"Look at Fang Jun Xiaoer's measures, since the victory against Niu Zhuji, he has been fighting and pulling, the Zhu family, the Xiao family, the Lu family, and the Wang family...... One by one, they all turned from hostility to seeking cooperation, and it was not easy to put aside their prejudices and enmity, and single-handedly stir up the originally solid Jiangnan Shi clan. ”

Dong Lao seemed to appreciate Fang Jun's actions, and he looked very respectful between his words.

This made Gu Xuan extremely unhappy, and he couldn't get out of the attack......

"Hmph, although Fang Jun is cunning, he is just a child who is not as weak as the crown. Presumably, this time he invited the Jiangnan Shi clan and businessmen to Huating Town, probably because he wanted to play his 'auction' trick. ”

Gu Xuan said angrily.

However, although he was extremely slanderous between his words, he was quite impressed by Fang Jun's methods in his heart, just this trick of "the highest price wins" can maximize the benefits. Thinking about the thrilling selling price of 1.6 million guan in Chang'an Quchifang, it made Gu Xuan's heart flutter and he was envious and jealous.

The most powerful thing is that he donated all this unprecedented huge profit as soon as he changed hands, so that no one in Chang'an today did not applaud Fang Jun. It is estimated that if anyone dares to scold Fang Jun on the streets of Chang'an, they will be beaten by the people......

With 1.6 million yuan to raise hope, even Gu Xuan can't admire Fang Jun's generosity. The loser has been defeated to such an extent, which can be regarded as unprecedented......

Dong Lao sighed lightly: "It's not time for me to do it...... At present, Fang Jun is powerful, so it is not too late to wait and see what happens, and after hibernation for a period of time. After so many years of waiting, why rush it? The old decay was not in a hurry, and Gu Langjun also had to stabilize his mind. The so-called small unbearable will make a big plan, if Fang Jun has a chance to take advantage of the chaos, it is really terrible. ”

Gu Xuan didn't agree with this.

Endure?

It's easier said than done.

The Gu family relies on nothing more than sea trade and sea salt, the future of sea trade is worrying, now that Fang Jun has built such a salt farm, who knows if it will have an impact on the Gu family's boiling salt? If it is just an increase in production that leads to a decline in salt prices, after all, salt is lucrative, and I don't care about this. But if Fang Jun is under the guise of the so-called salt farm, but in fact, he is thinking about the reeds of the Gu family, then it will be a big trouble!

How can you boil the sea for salt without reeds as fuel? The method of salt making that has been handed down for thousands of years, he Fang Jun can change it with a hair doll?

Gu Xuan didn't believe it, he always thought that Fang Jun just wanted to attack the Gu family's reeds, and he had to guard against it.

It seems that he has to send a letter to Gu Candle who stayed in Wuyuan Town, and ask him to lead the dead soldiers to guard the reeds along the coast of Huating Town, and not to be secretly attacked by Fang Jun. Especially the thousands of displaced people hidden in the reeds, it is the manpower to cut down the reeds, and if it is lost, it will be a great loss.

Now that the country is safe and secure, where can I find so many livestock-like laborers?

As Dong Lao said, let's bear with it first, endure until Zhang Liang comes to Huating Town, presumably the situation will change......

*****

The scorching heat in Guanzhong was unbearable, and His Majesty Li Er was the most intolerant of heat, and after enduring it for two months in Taiji Palace, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and went hunting in Kunming Lake......

It is said to be hunting, but where is the prey?

Kunming Pond is located in the southwest of Chang'an City, between the Fengshui and the water, it is an artificially dug lake, the Western Han Dynasty Yuan hunting four years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the south of Shanglin Yuan to lead the abundant water and build the Kunming Pool, around forty miles, originally for the purpose of practicing water warfare, and later became the place of rafting and playing.

His Majesty Li Er stood on the Yuzhang platform, looking out of the window, the cool breeze was blowing, and the front was vast.

There are two stone figures in the Kunming pool, which stand on the east and west sides of the pool for the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, thinking that it is a symbol of the Tianhe. There are dozens of Ge ships in the pool, several building boats, Ge spears on the boat, all four corners are full of banners, and they are acting in water warfare, His Majesty Li Er is very happy to see it, and he can't help but think that he still has a royal sailor, who is clearing bandits and pirates in the south of the Yangtze River, and is majestic, raising the heavenly power of the king, and rejuvenating the hegemony of the empire!

It's just that I don't know, how well did Fang Jun train my sailor?

Is it comparable to this majestic tiger in the Kunming pool?

But then I thought that the royal sailors were starting from scratch and were wantonly crisscrossing thousands of miles of sea frontiers, fighting bloodily for the royal prestige and the pacification of the empire's sea frontiers; And the tiger in front of him was just a plaything kept in the forbidden pool of the palace to entertain the king......

His Majesty Li Er suddenly lacked interest, and always felt that although the drill in front of him was at the peak of the lineup, it lacked a bloody nature.

Can an army without blood win a battle?

With a wave of his hand, he asked Wang De to give an order, ordering all these sailors to withdraw, so as not to look upset.

Wang De left in a hurry, and in less than a moment, the vast and mighty Kunming Lake died down, and a piece of clarity was restored, and the breeze blew up gusts of waves, and it was peaceful.

When Wang De returned, he said, "Your Majesty, the room asks to see you." ”

His Majesty Li Er said casually: "Xuan Qi's audience is." ”

I didn't wear shoes, just a pair of bare feet, drank a big sip of iced sour plum soup, and the heat disappeared all over my body, and it was very comfortable.

Not long after, the stairs outside Yuzhang Terrace sounded, and Fang Xuanling walked in meticulously in court clothes, and saluted His Majesty Li Er: "Weichen has seen Your Majesty. ”

His Majesty Li Er beckoned: "No courtesy, Xuan Ling, come and sit." ”

brought Fang Xuanling into front of him, and ordered Wang De to add a jade bowl, filled the iced sour plum soup with Lingnan frosting that had been boiling for a long time, and put it in front of Fang Xuanling. The sour plum soup must have just been taken out of the ice cubes, and it was still slightly emitting cold air.

His Majesty Li Er signaled that Fang Xuanling could drink as much as he could, and he didn't need to care about etiquette, and sighed and said: "Your Erlang created this ice-making method, which is indeed time-saving, labor-saving and money-saving. In the past, it was necessary to store shaved ice in the cold winter, and take it to enjoy the heat when it was hot, but now it is very convenient, just so much saltpeter, it can immediately condense into ice, it is simply magical! To say that this saltpeter is a thing of heaven and earth, eternal existence, why no one has thought of making ice from it throughout the ages, but only Fang Er wants to get it? This kid does have some crooked talents! ”

"Crooked talent" doesn't sound like a compliment, but from the mouth of the Yellow Emperor, it obviously has the meaning of drama and abuse, with intimacy and love.

Fang Xuanling put down the jade bowl after taking a sip, he was old and frail, his stomach was cold, and he was uncomfortable with drinking.

Hearing His Majesty Li Er's words, Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "Your Majesty's words are very true, that kid can't do business, if it is crooked, he does have some ability, and the old man doesn't know whether to praise him or scold him, it's just not doing his job." ”

His Majesty Li Er laughed: "What Xuan Ling said, but Fang Er is making paper in Jiangnan and making salt?" ”

Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty has high hopes for this evil obstacle, but as a result, this kid just refuses to do things well, and it seems that he can't live without making some noises. ”

This is really not a betrayal, think about Fang Jun since he left Beijing in the south, how many things have been tossed out in just a few days? If you stay in Jiangnan for three or five years, I'm afraid it won't make Jiangnan a miasma and out of control......

His Majesty Li Er is quite generous: "The general is outside, and the king's order is not affected." Although you have more experience and insight than Fang Er, you can't be there, after all, you can't know the hidden story, and you can't sit here and deny Fang Jun's actions. In fact, Fang Jun's piles are connected one by one, but there is a bit of a sense of step-by-step, at least, the current Jiangnan Shi clan is not monolithic, this is the biggest achievement, I am very relieved! ”

His Majesty Li Er has one of the biggest advantages, that is, there is no need to use suspicious people, and there is no suspicion in employing people! I'm optimistic about you, so you go and work hard, no matter what others say, I just support you!
