After thinking about it for a while, Guo Bin said: "What do you mean by your old man, when are you going north?" In a few days, I will take care of the sugar cane, and then I will sail north, and if it is cheap, how about I ask your old man to come with us. ”

After listening to Guo Bin's words, Dong Xing'er looked at Guo Bin with joy, and then held Dong Feng and said, "Daddy, let's take a boat north together." ”

Dong Feng looked indifferent and said slowly: "I haven't finished my business yet, so I can't leave." Then he said softly to Dong Xing'er: "You go north to wait for me first, and I will look for you as soon as I finish my business." As he spoke, he glanced at Guo Bin on the side and did not speak.

Dong Xing'er listened to it and didn't follow her voice. Guo Bin knew that Dong Feng was still worried about Shi Xie's injury. It can be said that judging from the current situation in Jiaozhou, as long as Shixie's injury does not recover for a day, the Shi family will not be truly stabilized for a day, so the situation in Jiaozhou will naturally be obscure. It seems that Dong Feng wants to wait until Shixie is fully recovered before setting off for the north.

Thinking of this, Guo Bin glanced at Dong Feng unconsciously and said: "The predecessors are broad-minded, benevolent, righteous and love the people, and they can really be called chivalrous." However, I have already sent the news to Yang Zhai that Fulong Villa and the Shi family and Jiaozhou Assassin Zhu Envoy Jun are going to cooperate, and my people are going to Jiaozhou to build manors and docks, and the first 200 horsemen are already on the way, and they should arrive within ten days. Guo Bin had already stated in the letter that when the news arrived in Yangzhai, He Man immediately ordered 200 troops to go south. As for Guo Jia, he will have to wait until Guo Bin arrives in Yangzhai to give an explanation, and the face-to-face teaching will be appropriate before he can make the trip. Fearing that they would encounter bandits and robbers along the way, a hundred troops were responsible for guarding them along the way.

After a pause, Guo Bin added a sentence and said: "These armies are all elite divisions that have been on the battlefield, and if they want to come to Jiaozhou, they can still deal with it." "Guo Bin's selection this time are all veterans who have participated in the defense of Yangzhai, these soldiers have already formed an army after more than a year of training, and they have all been on the battlefield, and with the newly developed Yuan Rong crossbow, they will be able to be ten. If Jiaozhou is not chaotic, it is fine, but if it is really chaotic, this must be an elite force that is enough to turn the situation around.

After listening to Guo Bin's words, although Dong Feng didn't say anything, he was secretly relieved in his heart. He Dong Feng has three heads and six arms, and his role in the war is extremely limited. No matter how high the so-called kung fu is, he is afraid of kitchen knives. Battlefield battles and rivers and lakes are completely different things, and rivers and lakes battles pay attention to one-on-one heads-up; And the battlefield fight is about fighting more and fighting less, and doing everything possible.

On the battlefield, the generals were all wearing heavy armor, and it would be a fool's dream to hurt them with the so-called sticks, let alone bare-handed. Just imagine, with the fingering of Dong Feng's very good point, he pointed it on a piece of plate armor, and this force was dispersed by the iron plate, and then it was transmitted to the person, and there was nothing left. Therefore, in the battlefield duel, a master who is famous in the rivers and lakes may not even be able to play the role of a small soldier.

The population of Jiaozhou is naturally smaller than that of the Central Plains, and the population of Linyi is even smaller than that of the Han people in Lingnan, so once a war breaks out in Jiaozhou, its scale is naturally much smaller than that of the Central Plains. In such skirmishes, the role of small elite soldiers is undoubtedly extremely important. In a remote place like Lingnan, where many soldiers have never had a major war, if the elite soldiers under Guo Bin are used well, they are bound to play a decisive role at a critical moment.

This is what Dong Feng thought, since Guo Bin has made arrangements, then when the first batch of 200 soldiers from his Fulong Villa arrives, he Dong will be able to leave with peace of mind.

Seeing that Dong Feng's face softened a lot, Guo Bin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was afraid that Dong Feng would not be able to save the so-called face on the rivers and lakes, and he would stay alive or dead. His Dong Feng and Shi Xie's martial arts are naturally half a catty and eight taels, but after all, this Lingnan is the territory of the Shi family, and the children of the Shi family are not all wine bags and rice bags, if the two fight, at least Wang Yue has the ability to intervene. Coupled with the two or three hundred soldiers of the Shi family who wore leather armor and held heavy crossbows, it is difficult to say whether Dong Feng could escape with his life.

At that moment, Guo Bin asked: "Huang Xu is honest and extremely intelligent, and it is his great blessing to be healed by your old man's skillful hands." I just wonder if his disease can be eradicated? Alas, being so ill-fated at such a young age is really a trick! ”

Dong Feng pondered for a while, and Fang said: "This kid has a pure heart and a wonderful bone, if it weren't for his bad health, he would indeed be a martial arts training material." I have given him a few pills of the Nine Turns Taixuan Pill, and I have used my internal strength to help him evacuate all over his body, and I think he will be safe within half a year. ”

Guo Bin exclaimed: "After half a year, wouldn't it be..."

Dong Feng waved his hand and said: "It will take less than half a year, after ten days, I will set off to the north, and after I finish the matter, I will go to Yingchuan to look for apricots. ”

Guo Bin was overjoyed, until this time, a big stone in his heart really fell to the ground. Thinking that Shi Xie's injury is no matter how quickly he recovers, it will be difficult to completely heal in ten days, so it will be much easier for Dong Feng to leave. Besides, when the time comes, He Man will lead two hundred elite soldiers to Jiaozhou, if the Shi family wants to embarrass Dong Feng, then they can't care about tearing their faces.

Thinking of this, Guo Bin secretly made up his mind that he would write a letter about Dong Feng, and if the matter intensified at that time, he would ask He Man to take it out and use his Guo Bin's name to suppress the Shi family. With Guo Bin's status in the officialdom, coupled with his close relationship with the powerful faction in Beijing, Shilin, and even Liu Hong, the son of heaven, it is not easy to suppress a small scholar.

Besides, Zhu Fu is not muddy, and if the matter gets big and provokes Zhu Fu to interfere, it will be more than worth the loss. In other words, Guo Bin wants to vaguely point out that he already knows about Dong Feng, just don't puncture the layer of window paper, if the Shi family is willing to end this matter well, then it is best, I, Guo Bin, also wrote down your favor; If you refuse, then you will tear your face and meet each other. Shi Xie and Wang Yue are both smart people, and they can make the most rational and reasonable decisions. It's just this section, so there is no need to talk to Dong Fengming.

Since the matter was properly discussed, Guo Bin and Dong Xing'er quietly returned to the small courtyard along the same road, and after coming back, Dong Xing'er told him about tonight's events. It turned out that after she saw Guo Bin chatting with Huang Xu in the room for a while, she went out of the courtyard in a hurry, both curious and worried, so she wanted to catch up and go with him. How do you know that although Guo Bin's light body kung fu is not a famous expert's guidance, and his posture is not coquettish at all, he is extremely fast when he walks and jumps, and the trees in the back garden of the scholar's house are overgrown, and there are many paths, Guo Bin disappeared after a few jumps.

Although Dong Xing'er is a family heirloom martial arts, her body skills are also first-class in today's world, and she is also struggling to keep up in such a complex terrain, and she can't make a sound to stop Guo Bin, and even lost it a few times. Fortunately, Guo Bin traveled all the way, because he wanted to confirm Dong Feng's identity as soon as possible, so he took a straight line, and Dong Xinger stopped and went, but the general direction was not wrong. When he came to the small courtyard not far away, he heard the sound of calling and inviting to fight, so he followed the sound, but just in time for Guo Bin and Dong Feng to hand over.

Dong Xing'er saw that her father was here, her heart was full of surprises and doubts, and she had nowhere to vent her grievances, seeing that Guo Bin was controlled everywhere, obviously not Dong Feng's opponent, she was in a hurry, so she took out the soft sword on her waist and started with Dong Feng. It is very common for father and daughter to exchange moves, but now they naturally have their own feelings that cannot be expressed under the reunion after a long absence.

Until this time, Guo Bin knew that Dong Xing'er would appear in that courtyard tonight and make a timely move. He was secretly moved in his heart, took Dong Xing'er's green and tender little hand, and said softly: "Xing'er, I will definitely save Dong seniors, if the Shi family is unwilling to give up, then I have to stretch out my hand and measure." ”

Dong Xing'er looked at him, her pretty face was slightly red, and said, "Brother Bin, I know." ”

For a moment, the two looked at each other, as if there was no one else in heaven and earth. This person, once he falls in love, he meets the opposite sex who is 10,000 times smarter and 10,000 times better than the other party, and it is also regarded as nothing, as if there is nothing else in the world except him (her). (I don't know if you readers have had this kind of experience, but this was the case when Qianyang fell in love with his wife.) Suddenly I'm looking forward to Uchiko seeing this paragraph.,Haha.。 ）

It's just that if Dong Feng, the prospective father-in-law, sees this scene, he will definitely blow his beard and stare at him, and I'm afraid he will have to eat a jar of flying vinegar.

On the second day, Guo Bin woke up as if nothing had happened, and sent everyone to recruit men in the city under the guidance of the children of the scholar family sent by Wang Yue as guides. Panyu City is located near the mouth of the Pearl River, the local residents all know water, each can go to the sea to catch fish, ordinary fishermen to go to the deep sea may not be easy to do, but if it is offshore sailing, it is not a problem.

The recruitment of manpower this time is mainly to find sailors who sail ships, and as for the craftsmen who build big ships, they will be handed over to Guo Jia, who is in charge of the overall situation in Jiaozhou. Regarding the location of sugarcane plantations and shipbuilding bases and docks, Guo Bin has not yet made up his mind. If you want to say that it is close to Panyu City and convenient for the support of the city, it is reasonable. With the approval of the Shi family and Zhu Fu, a large area of idle land outside Panyu City can be taken down without much cost. Moreover, this is the estuary of the Pearl River, and the shipping transportation with the mainland of Jiaozhou is very convenient, and the sugarcane produced along the Pearl River can be easily carried down the river.

It's just that there are thousands of good things here, but there is an inconvenience, that is, it is located outside Panyu City, and it is always under the nose of Jiaozhou Thorn Mansion, and many things are not so cheap. In addition, although it is outside the city, it is quite inconvenient to expand the size of the dock or plantation. In Guo Bin's calculations, it is best to have the wharf connected to the plantation, and it should also have a relatively independent and closed environment. After all, Guo Bin didn't just want to use Jiaozhou as a raw material source, if he wanted to exert his influence here, he had to have a piece of territory that completely belonged to his jurisdiction, otherwise it would be very inconvenient to send additional troops or produce and build warships in the future.
