While thinking about it, there was a sound of footsteps, but it was Jiang Wan who walked in.

"My lord." Jiang Wan bowed to Liu Feng. A formal suit supports Jiang Wan, who is very dignified.

Seeing Jiang Wan wearing formal clothes, Liu Feng felt a little sorry in his heart, although he himself was very idle, but Jiang Wan, who was the Taishou of Jiangxia, was not idle.

Just reinforcing the river made Jiang Wan very busy.

However, I can only apologize in my heart.

There's really no one to use anymore.

"Gong Yan sits." Liu Feng pointed to the vacant seat on the side and said.

"Thank you, Lord." Jiang Wan responded and sat down naturally.

"This time I came to find Gongyan, but it was to deal with Lu Su." After Jiang Wan sat down, Liu Feng smiled slightly.

"Oh? Jiangdong envoy is Lu Su? Although Jiang Wan sighed, there was no surprise on his face, at present, it is Lu Su who has won Sun Quan's trust.

"Well, the last time Gongyan sent Jiangdong to contact Lu Su, it should be easier to deal with." Liu Feng nodded and said with a smile.

Immediately, Liu Feng nodded fiercely and said, "This translation is because Jiangdong has asked me and sent an envoy to make peace." You have to plan well and try to add as much benefit as possible. ”

"With the current situation in Jiangdong, the benefits that can be given are gone except for the Shanyue people. The gold, silver and jewelry were all spent on the conquest of Shanyue, and the granary was also bottomed out. The rest to some minerals. Jiang Wan counted the things that Jiangdong could get his hands on at present, but he was a little embarrassed.

Minerals may not be available, and that thing is used to make weapons. Unless it's a last resort.

And apart from minerals, it seems that there is nothing left in Koto.

Liu Feng listened to it, and it seemed that it was true, in addition to some soft savings in Jiangdong, other hard savings such as grain, gold, copper coins, etc. were exhausted.

Poor jingle.

An indescribable joy welled up in my heart. Liu Feng smiled and said: "The Shanyue people and minerals will be talked about later, and now the most important thing is shipbuilding." ”

"Boatsmith?" Jiang Wan's eyes lit up and said.

"Yes, they may have come to share the course with us, and there is an excuse. Let's just say that we don't have enough shipwrights to build those sea ships. If Jiangdong can send a hundred shipwrights over, it can also be considered. Liu Feng smiled and nodded.

Immediately, he said, "However, it will take some time." ”

"My subordinates understood." Jiang Wan already knew it in his heart, and he couldn't help but say.

At present, what Jiangxia lacks the most is the boatman, who is all put together. Far less than Jing Chu, Wu Yue is more and powerful.

Taking advantage of the benefits you can get, it's a big deal to get some benefits early.

There were a hundred shipwrights, and at least a thousand of them. It was enough to make Sun Quan feel distressed for a while.

However, for the losses caused by Liu Feng's troops in Jiangdong, these losses were all small losses. Think about it, as soon as Gan Ning set out on the expedition, how many city granaries were burned, how many ferries were burned, and how many warships were burned.

Therefore, in the end, Sun Quan will still agree.

Then, the two of them talked about the details, and Jiang Wan hurried down to prepare.

The time from Xiakou to Xiling is short, and Lu Su may have approached Xiling City at this time.

After some preparations, Jiang Wan led some small officials and soldiers out of the west of Xiling City and waited outside the door.

At this moment, Lu Su's convoy is about a mile away from Xiling City.

There were hundreds of people in the group, including dozens of carriages, and 200 escorts. The vehicles were all provided by Ganning, and most of them were loaded with some Jiangdong souvenirs.

Lu Su sat in a carriage in front of him, his face was calm, but a sigh flashed in the depths of his eyes.

This time, the burden on Lu Su's shoulders was heavy, heavy.

Last time, Jiang Wan sent an envoy, Jiangxia, who seemed to be a weak country, to negotiate the waterway with Jiangdong, but Jiangdong was proud of its strength at that time, and it was not sincere to let the two families share the waterway.

Now, his envoy is exactly the same as Jiang Wan's envoy.

It's just that the situation is diametrically opposite, Jiangxia's strength and the ability of the navy have turned the status of both sides upside down.

Although it is not necessarily Jiangxia strong, but in terms of the water army, Jiangdong is really not as good as Jiangxia.

Lu Su remembered that the last time Jiang Wan sent an envoy, Sun Quan said that he was not sick, and he received everything on his behalf. When I came to Jiangxia, I didn't know what it would be like.

Lu Su sighed in his heart.

Soon, the mile was over.

Xiling City gradually jumped into Lu Su's eyes, this city, Lu Su came once. Although the city does not have to go to Wucheng and Moling City in Jiangdong, it is also of the upper middle level.

In particular, the defense is amazing.

As long as there are 20,000 soldiers, even if 100,000 people come, they can resist for a long time.

The last time I came, I begged Liu Feng to return Zhou Yu's eldest son. Lu Su sighed even more in his heart.

This time, it's really not easy.

"Stop." The soldier of the escort team was Gan Ning's sailor, and a military marquis walking in front shouted to stop. Then he rode his horse to the side of the Lusu carriage and said, "Mr. Zijing, Lord Jiang is waiting outside the city gate. ”

There is no need for this military marquis to remind, Lu Su can already see Jiang Wan.

Nodding, Lu Su stepped out of the carriage. Greeted him.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Mr. Zijing is good." Jiang Wan smiled and raised his fist.

"It's a nerve-wracking thing." Lu Su sighed and said with a little deep meaning.

"Hehe, if you are sad because of the fatigue of the journey, you can go to the Taishou Mansion to rest first." Jiang Wan smiled slightly.

Seeing that Jiang Wan didn't seem to hear the deep meaning of his words, or heard it, he was pretending to be confused.

Lu Su sighed again in his heart, even more worried about this mission.

"It's really tiring, it's just Wu Hou's entrustment, I have to do my best." Lu Su smiled.

"In this case, please ask Mr. Zijing to go to the Taishou Mansion." Jiang Wan's smile remained unchanged and said.

"Please." As he spoke, Jiang Wan stretched out his hand to let Lu Su get into the carriage.

"Please." Lu Su hugged his fist at Jiang Wan and sat in the carriage again. Jiang Wan also stepped into the carriage.

The two teams merged into one and headed towards the Taishou Mansion.

After arriving at the Taishou Mansion, Jiang Wan asked the military marquis to return to Xiakou to resume his life. The local products brought by Lu Su were temporarily placed in the front yard of Taishou Mansion.

After the order, Jiang Wan took Lu Su into the hall.

Originally, Jiang Wan planned to do some singing and dancing, but he didn't have the heart to listen to Lu Su, so he gave up.

After sitting down with each other, Lu Su spoke first, and he raised his fist to Jiang Wan and said: "In the past, because of some small misunderstandings, the two families started to fight, but now Wu Hou sent me, but it is so that the two families can turn the war into jade silk and eliminate the misunderstanding." As he spoke, Lu Su pulled out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve.

Lifting it in his hand, an attendant behind Jiang Wan immediately took a few steps forward, took the bamboo slip in Lu Su's hand, and handed it to Jiang Wan.

After Jiang Wan took it, he swept it roughly in his hand again.

On it is not only some local products of Jiangdong, but also some jade and bronze ware. Even if it is left between the two countries, it can be regarded as very lucrative.

This sincerity seems to be there.

But it's actually a floating cloud. As much as you send, you have to seek tenfold, hundredfold benefits. This is the state. If there is no broad interest, how can you be willing to pay the cost?

After Jiang Wan roughly swept it, he quietly put the bamboo slip on the table.

"The two soldiers are not a little misunderstanding." Jiang Wan said with a smile, without a little subtlety, how can the dispute between the two countries be subtle.

It should be like a knife edge, and strive for it.

"When I found out that merchant ships could sail directly in Liaodong, I Jiangdong was really greedy. That's why ten merchant ships were seized. Not only did I come with five seagoing ships, but also my entourage. Lu Su didn't have any embarrassment on his face, and said very calmly.

"Only five?" Jiang Wan's expression remained unchanged and said.

In fact, Jiang Wan had already guessed that the other five merchant ships might have been sent by Jiangdong to find the other fifty merchant ships overseas.

"After General Jiang Qin seized the merchant ships, he also heard that there were still fifty merchant ships overseas, and he was greedy for a while, so he raised troops and went overseas, but he never returned, I am afraid that he encountered a storm." Speaking of this, Lu Su's face was a little heavy, paused, and said: "Wu Hou also knows that the losses of those five warships are not small, so I came to Jiangxia this time, and there are twenty shipwrights and their families together. Hopefully it will be made up. ”

Lu Su said very sincerely.

The attitude is very resolute and admits defeat. The seized merchant ships will be returned to you, and I will make up for the lost merchant ships. This time, I don't plan to ask for the loss caused by Gan Ning.

This can be seen from Lu Su not mentioning Xu Sheng, Zhuge Jin.

Just fighting these to get Liu Feng to quit the army, but it was a little less.

Will Jiang Qin go back? Jiang Wan was a little surprised by Lu Su's news, but then remembered Liu Feng's strength at sea and didn't know that there were tens of thousands of people.

And it was relieved.

What's more, Jiangxia's navy has been rampant at sea for months, while Jiangdong's navy is just out of the sea. In a battle between the two armies, it is also common sense that Jiang Qin's entire army was annihilated.

Jiang Wan felt some joy in his heart.

Jiang Qin was a general, and his presence was able to resist Jiangxia's expansion to a certain extent. Now that he has gone to Jiang Qin, it can be said that he has increased the power of Jiangxia to invade Jiangdong in disguise.

"Hehe, I accepted this gift list on behalf of the general. It's just that this matter has to be decided by the general. It's just that. Jiang Wan smiled slightly, naturally he would not let Lu Su pass like this.

Hearing Jiang Wan's words, Lu Su's heart jumped, and he immediately smiled: "I know that these are not enough to make up for Jiangdong's mistakes, and there is one more thing to ask Gongyan to tell the general." ”

Lu Su saw that Jiang Wan was called Jiangxia Taishou just now, and it was no longer appropriate to call Liu Feng Liu Jiangxia, so Jiang Wan called Liu Feng a general.

"What?" Jiang Wan raised his eyebrows, but he had a premonition that the meat drama was coming.

"Wu Hou has promised that this passage to Liaodong trade will be shared by the two families, and I hope to rebuild the good of the two families." Lu Su looked up at Jiang Wan and said softly.

After finishing speaking, Lu Su looked at Jiang Wan with expectant eyes.

Jiangdong was indeed sincere this time, in order to be able to make Jiangxia stop using troops against Jiangdong. Loss, the captured Xu Sheng, Zhuge Jin didn't say a word.

and make up for Jiangxia's losses. It is also necessary to share the waterway with Jiangxia.

It's kind of digging out the heart and lungs. There is no way, who told Jiang Xia's navy to be able to drive straight into it and cause a lot of damage.

remembered the attitude he got when Jiang Wan went to Jiangdong.

Liu Feng gritted his teeth and vowed to return a tooth for a tooth. Jiang Wan is okay and can deal with it calmly.

But Lu Su can't deal with it indifferently, up to Sun Quan and down to Lu Su, all of them regret it.

What could be done by discussing at the beginning, but now he has to take the initiative to seek peace, and he has to send money, Xu Sheng, Zhuge Jin, etc., may not be able to calm Liu Feng's anger.

So that the two repaired the relationship.

I don't want to, I don't want to. The more he thought about it, the more Lu Su felt that he and Sun Quan had really made a mistake and made a mistake. I feel sad.

In the end, there was still a little grievance, and Lu Su simply shook his head and didn't want to think about it.

Now people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat. It all depends on what Liu Feng thinks, if he doesn't agree with him. This could lead to permanent disaster.

Hopefully, I hope Liu Feng can be sensible for a while. Let them have a respite from Jiangdong, restore their power, and study that new type of warship.

Against Jiangxia.

Lu Su's mood as a minister of the weak side, how could Jiang Wan not know.

At the beginning, he also sent Jiangdong with a weak attitude, hoping to calm things down. But as a result, Sun Quan actually said that he couldn't get sick.

"I still can't be the master of this matter, and I still have to make the decision of the general himself." Jiang Wan smiled slightly, shook his head and said.

"Then please ask Gongyan to introduce the general on your behalf." Lu Su saw Jiang Wan shirking it, and his heart was even more bottomless. But he still stubbornly begged to see Liu Feng.

"My lord is impartially inspecting the river reinforcement work in Changsha, and I am afraid that I will not be able to return to Jiangxia for a while. Please Mr. Zijing wait for a while. Jiang Wan shook his head and said.

This shirk word is really bad, even worse than Sun Quan saying that he can't get sick.

If this is really in Changsha, a piece of paperwork, Liu Feng can make a decision, why wait?

Ren is Lu Su's self-cultivation is good, but he still can't help but scold secretly in his heart. Find a reason, but also let Jiangdong be able to save face.

But it's one thing to know, it's another thing to be able to debunk.

obviously knew that Liu Feng was deliberately snubbing him, and it was naked snubbing, and he couldn't expose it. Lu Su's current mood can be imagined.

Jiangxia is not in a hurry, but Jiangdong is in a hurry.

If Jiangxia sends troops to Jiangdong again, he will burn it once. Last time I burned down the granary, and next time I burned down the entire city.

Jiangdong should not mix it up anymore, just hit it with tofu and kill it.

"Gongyan is Jiangxia Taishou, is it difficult for Gongyan to call the shots at this time?" Lu Su had to put down his posture again and asked.

"Now that General Yang Wu Liu is sitting down, there are three counties of Jiujiang, Jiangxia, and Changsha, and I am just a small Jiangxia Taishou, and the matter is big at this time, and it is really not for me to call the shots. Please forgive me. Jiang Wan raised his fist in the direction of Changsha. Apologetic.

He didn't move like a mountain, watching Jiangdong turn around in a hurry.

This is what Liu Feng wants. To be honest, looking at Lu Su's anxious appearance, Jiang Wan felt a little comfortable.

Although he cultivated himself well, Jiang Wan still felt uncomfortable when he took Jiang Xia, Sun Quan, and Lu Su to snub him.

Now seeing that Lu Su was anxious, Jiang Wan found that he was very shameless and felt more comfortable.

"Ugh. It's really going back the more I live. The change in mentality surprised Jiang Wan, and he immediately put away his distracting thoughts.
