Decided to go back to Jianye, Sun Shao immediately began to prepare, he found Cheng Jun, and asked him to classify the goods brought back from Xu Wen, and sell them in Panyu if they are suitable for sale in Panyu, and pack ships if they are more suitable for sale in Jianye or Chengdu. At the same time, he used the money he got this time—whether it was obtained from selling goods or stolen from pirates—to buy a large amount of goods, filled with a full eighteen ships, ten of which were merchant ships allocated to him by Sun Quan, and the other eight were trophies distributed to him by Buqi, all of which were large merchant ships larger than medium-sized warships, which could be described as a giant among the merchant ships that came and went, and the super fleet, eighteen ships plus two escort ships went to the harbor, which could not only move people's hearts, but also break people's courage. The touching heart is that the value of these eighteen ships is enough to make people tempted, and the courage is broken by the two escorted ships, with private armed escort, Sun Shao is not the only one, but with private armed building ship escort, Sun Shao is the only one.

After everything was processed, he called Cheng Jun to the study, took out a burden and pushed it in front of Cheng Jun. Cheng Jun was puzzled, opened it and took a look, and was taken aback, inside were fifty cakes of golden horseshoe gold, one pound per cake. At first, he saw that Sun Shao was not struggling to mention it, thinking that it was not much money, but he didn't expect it to be fifty gold.

"This is for you." Sun Shao said lightly: "Thirty gold is the bonus that should have been given to you, and twenty gold is my reward." ”

"No, no." Cheng Jun was taken aback and shook his head again and again. After he got on Sun Shao's big ship, not only did he take a big advantage when Xu Wen received the goods this time, but also obtained the best outlet in Panyu City, and now he is a famous businessman in Panyu City, even a big family like Ouyang Fu has to look at his face - in Panyu, who can have more resources than Sun Shao? The profit he got this time was more than five times that of previous years, how could he dare to collect Sun Shao's money, he still wanted to go a long way.

"Take it." Sun Shao pushed the gold in front of him and patted his hand: "Without your help, I wouldn't have made so much money, this is what you deserve." In addition, I want to tell you, I'm going to Jianye, and when I'll be back, I really can't tell, so I have to ask you to take care of the rest of the goods and those ships. ”

Cheng Jun's face darkened, he knew the reason. It's not a question of Sun Shao not knowing when he will come back, it's a question of whether he can come back. He put so much money and goods into his hands because he trusted him, and if he could come back, he would ask him to take care of them, and if he couldn't come back, it would be given to him.

"Jun doesn't dare to be, please take back the general's order." Cheng Jun took a step back and fell to the ground. To say that he is not interested in this wealth is false, but because this wealth is so exciting, he does not dare to accept it, in business for more than ten years, he believes in a truth, windfall can not be made, after the windfall, there will be a disaster.

Sun Shao looked at Cheng Jun quietly, and after a long while, he leaned over to help Cheng Jun up, and said with a smile: "I know your ability, such a big business is just a small test for you, and there will definitely be no mistakes." You can rest assured, although I am not in Panyu, but I will entrust Bufujun to take care of you, and he will arrange the affairs at the official level. In addition, I also left a trustworthy person to contact you, in case there is something that Bufujun can't solve, you can contact him. ”

Cheng Jun let out a long breath, took the bamboo talisman handed over by Sun Shao, and carefully carried it into his arms.

Before leaving, Sun Shao rushed to the Assassin's Mansion, and the Bu Qi who was working asked people to welcome Sun Shao to the study, and after a while, he rushed over, and as soon as he sat down, he didn't drink a sip of tea, he said with some regret: "Fengxian, it's a pity, some situations have just opened up here, and you have to leave again." ”

Sun Shao smiled, tore off the seals of the Nanhai Taishou and Panyu Ship Order from his waist, and pushed them in front of Buqi: "Fujun, I will return these seals completely, and I will take the seal of General Henghai and hand it over to the Supreme after returning to Jianye." ”

"What, you really don't want to be an official?" Bu Qi was a little surprised.

"Hehe, I've been an official, I've fought battles, I'm also a rich man now, and it's time to enjoy it. After two or three months of swinging on the sea, it was interesting to be interesting, but I was too tired to sleep well. ”

Buqi smacked his lips, but didn't say anything. Of course, he knew that there was another meaning to this unsteady sleep. Sun Shao made a great contribution this time, but he couldn't give him a promotion, and he didn't even dare to mention Sun Shao more on the documents for his merits, for fear that it would not bring Sun Shao an official, but a disaster. He could only compensate him financially, use the power in his hands to allocate a boat to him, and chat to comfort his conscience.

"You can rest assured that you will return to Jianye, your property in Panyu, I will help you take care of it, and when you come back to Panyu, I will guarantee that there will be no less money." Bu Qi comforted: "I will write to the Supreme, please come back to participate in the Autumn Queen Expedition." ”

"Thank you for your support." Sun Shao smiled disappre一门ly, said a few gossips, and got up to leave. He knew that Bu Qi's words were not completely empty words, but obviously he couldn't believe too much, he remembered the last time he was played.

In mid-August, Sun Shao left Panyu Port, accompanied by more than 100 ships of the Jiaozhou Navy Division escorting the escort, and nearly 300 merchant ships. Of course, Sun Shao's building ship is the most majestic, the two building ships are already amazing, and now they are connected together with giant trees, forty zhang long and nearly thirty zhang wide, which is simply a mansion on the water. There were twelve sails on the ship, 300 sailors, and 300 soldiers, all of whom were officers and soldiers of the Jiaozhou Naval Division under Sun Shao, and Buqi turned them into the battalion of General Henghai. He did this with good intentions, if Sun Quan can tolerate Sun Shao having these hundreds of people, then they are Sun Shao's, if Sun Quan is not satisfied, it is simple, as long as he finds a reason to collect Sun Shao's Henghai General Yin, Sun Shao will become a poor egg again.

The most surprising thing is that Sun Shao's ship has no oars and oars, only see the bulkhead on the oar, but can not see a oar, when walking, only see the water behind the boat rolling out, the ship slowly moved forward, although the size of the ship is a little unusual, but the speed is not slower than ordinary merchant ships.

When Sun Shao was leaving, he found a Daqin acrobatic troupe in Panyu who came to Jiaozhou from Xiyi, about a dozen people, he told them that they would eat and live on the boat for free, but they had to perform once a day in the afternoon, about half an hour, open to everyone in the fleet to collect tickets, no matter how much the income was, the cost was thirty-seven, seventy percent belonged to the acrobatic troupe, and thirty percent belonged to Sun Shao, which was regarded as food expenses. The acrobatic troupe was overjoyed, agreed without saying a word, and when they arrived at the boat, they hugged each other in surprise, and laughed non-stop. Sun Shao's ship is simply too beautiful, the cabin that exudes the smell of fresh wood is spacious and sturdy, the brand-new bedding is all high-quality silk fabrics, these hardships, crowded in the small cabin and drifted across the sea to Jiaozhou, the Daqin people are eager to dismantle the quilt and transform it into clothes, oh my God, such silk in Daqin, it is all clothes that can only be worn by noble ladies, but now they are used as quilt covers, it is too wasteful.

In the flying house on the second floor of the main cabin, Guan Feng slowly walked out of the cabin, sat down on the wide bamboo couch, and looked at the Daqin Acrobatic Troupe that was preparing for the first performance in the distance, her cheeks showed happy dimples. Of course, she knew that Sun Shao didn't let these Great Qin people get on the boat to make any money, he was afraid that she would be lonely on the journey, so he asked them to relieve her boredom. Although she couldn't understand what the Great Qin people were saying, from their respectful demeanor and humble eyes, she could feel that she was no different from the queen in the eyes of these Great Qin people.

There was a sound of stairs, and the heavily armed Sun Shangxiang pressed the knife and strode up, followed by two equally heavily armed female guards, after getting on the flying house, they stood at the top of the stairs, and the expression on their faces clearly showed a meaning, idlers are not allowed to enter.

"Feng girl, I'm so annoyed, I actually want me to be a guard for you, if it weren't for the seed of my Sun family, I really want to flatten you." Sun Shangxiang sat down on the other side with a big grin, grabbed the pot on the desk and poured tea for himself, but what flowed out was not tea, but snow-white coconut water. She was taken aback: "I said Feng girl, you are too extravagant, right?" Drink this all the way? ”

"Of course you can't drink it all, it's not tired of dying." Qiao Yue grinned and pointed to a merchant ship behind the ship: "It is full of all kinds of fresh fruits, if you want to eat, send someone to get it, and if you think it's troublesome, you will send someone to squeeze juice and drink." ”

"Oh-" Sun Shangxiang sighed sadly, raised his neck, drank all the coconut water in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said, "I also live here." Girl Moon, go and bring my luggage here. Oh, my wife knows that it hurts, and I, an elder, don't know filial piety? This Aman is really, I'll have to teach him a good lesson later. ”

Qiao Yue didn't dare to move, Sun Shao had ordered, although there were three cabins on it, but in order to make Guan Feng's eyes clean, he would rather be empty than let others live. But is Sun Shangxiang someone else? She didn't dare to guarantee that if she angered this tiger aunt, Sun Shao would not be able to protect her. She hesitated for a moment and looked at Guan Feng for help. Guan Feng smiled softly and glanced at Sun Shangxiang: "Auntie, the other flying house is also empty, why don't you live over there?" It's very convenient to come here anyway. ”

This big ship is connected by two building ships, it was not originally a boat, so it is different from ordinary boats, this voyage has two flying houses, about six zhang away in the middle, Guan Feng lives in this flying house is the honor on the left side, the lower Lu is Sun Shao's reception of guests, Sun Shao's cabin arranged for Sun Shangxiang is next to it, the flying house on the right is Sun Shao's command cabin, the relevant cronies live in the lower Lu, sailors, soldiers also live on that ship, but the cabin below the deck, compared to the Lu and Fei Lu on the deck, Of course, it's much more crowded, that is, you can sleep flat.

Sun Shangxiang pursed his lips, rolled his eyes, and said very domineeringly: "Why? You occupy three cabins in one and let me squeeze into the corner? No, I'll live with you, and if you don't want to, you can't. She was familiar with Guan Feng before, and later became an aunt and nephew, and the relationship became even closer, in front of Guan Feng, she was both a close friend and an elder, and she didn't need to save face for Guan Feng.

Guan Feng's face flushed, and he bit his lip and thought about it: "You can live if you want, but don't regret it when the time comes." ”

"Regrets?" Sun Shangxiang laughed: "I'm the kind of person who doesn't regret hitting the wall, I'm still afraid that you little husband and wife won't be successful?" ”

"That's good." Guan Feng elegantly stretched out his finger: "Yue'er, go find two people, take your aunt's luggage, and put it in the upper cabin." ”

Qiao Yue answered and called the two female guards. Sun Shangxiang nodded with satisfaction, leaned over and touched Guan Feng's face, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Good daughter-in-law, this is like talking, my aunt didn't hurt you in vain." ”

Guan Feng looked at her with slanted eyes and smiled silently. Sun Shangxiang twisted her fingertips again and flattened her mouth: "Girl, it seems that the shaft is right, this coconut water is good for the skin, your skin is more delicate than before, I feel pity." ”

"Aren't you too?" Guan Feng blushed and retorted. Sun Shangxiang touched her face and sighed: "No, my aunt is almost thirty years old, and she has become an old woman." It's really resentful, the old lady is such a flower, and she has not bloomed yet, and she has been defeated. ”

"Poof-" Not only Guan Feng, but even the female guard standing next to him couldn't help laughing.

"Who said that?" Sun Shao poked his head out of the cabin, he looked at Sun Shangxiang, and looked up and down: "Auntie, you are in your prime, sitting with Yinping, you are like a sister, who dares to say that you are old?" ”

"Go, little vertical, dare to make fun of my aunt, see if I don't clean you up." Sun Shangxiang blushed and said angrily: "I haven't settled accounts with you yet, you obviously have an empty cabin above, why do you let me live below?" Without waiting for Sun Shao to answer, she said viciously: "I have decided, I want to live on it." ”

"Where do you live?" Sun Shao was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Guan Feng, Guan Feng stuck out his tongue helplessly, Sun Shao was a little embarrassed, but seeing that Qiao Yue had already carried her luggage with the two female guards, he couldn't say anything immediately, so he had to respond vaguely, and then looked at Guan Feng's eyes with some indescribable complaints.

"Well, the show is about to start." Sun Shao diverted the topic and sat next to Guan Feng.

On the deck in front, there are many people on the inner and outer three floors, in the middle are the members of the Daqin Acrobatic Troupe, two women with large breasts and thin waists are making the final preparations before the performance, their clothes are very little, and there is only a very thin bandeau on the upper body, which can be half of the plump twin peaks, and a snow-white piece is exposed on it, the thin waist is all exposed, and there is a pearl embedded in the navel. The long colorful skirt has a low waist, almost reaching the hip bone, revealing a flat lower abdomen, which makes people worry that it will fall off at any time. The long hair is tied into several braids and sways with the swing of the head.

The three men were holding musical instruments that the Han people had never seen before, and they were trying out, and the sounds they made were very new to Sun Shangxiang and Guan Feng, they stopped laughing and looked at them curiously. The people surrounding the side were the same, some were glancing at the waists, breasts and buttocks of those women, some were looking at the musical instruments of the Great Qin people, and there were also Great Qin people among the merchants, who were proudly introducing the upcoming show to others.

There are seats in the innermost circle of the auditorium, of course, it is a circle of mats connected together, and the outside is a two-layer seat, specially prepared by Sun Shao, each two feet and four feet high, and the outermost is standing, this kind of people has the most, not only businessmen, but also those sailors and officers and soldiers who are not worth it, because the ticket price is cheap, as long as twenty yuan can open a foreign meat, they are not opposed, of course, those in the inner circle who sit as high as three or five hundred yuan, is not something they can enjoy.

"How much can I charge today?" Sun Shangxiang asked with a grin.

"I don't know." Sun Shao shook his head indifferently, he turned his face to look at Sun Shangxiang, and said with a smile: "As long as my aunt is satisfied, I will be happy to lose money." ”

"Hypocrisy." Sun Shangxiang said angrily, "You please your wife, don't use me as a pretense." ”

"Auntie, you've wronged me." Sun Shao laughed a few times: "Am I not good to you?" ”

"It was okay." Sun Shangxiang glared at him and turned his head: "But compared with you to Feng Yatou, it's not good enough." ”

Sun Shao was speechless, this flying vinegar seemed to be a little out of tune. But she's always been out of tune.

"Husband, is Da Qin Yuan?" Guan Feng saw that Sun Shao was embarrassed, and hurriedly relieved him of the siege.

"Far away, it is said that these Great Qin people will take a year to take a boat before they can come to our Han Dynasty." Sun Shao smiled.

"Are they very poor and can't survive, so they came to Jiaozhou to beg for a living?" Sun Shangxiang was also curious.

"Like us, he also has rich people and poor people, and the rich are rich and rival the country, and the poor are hard to find food and clothing." Sun Shao sighed. In fact, it is not only the Great Qin and the Great Han, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, all the same. I am too, don't look at the wealth of the family now, but this is sitting on the firewood, maybe one day Sun Quan throws a spark, and he will be finished. You still have to find a way to fend for yourself as soon as possible. He subconsciously looked to the east, there was a treasure island there, if he could occupy that island, it would be good to be called a mountain king. The key is still the water division, if there is a strong water division, where is the land of Jiangdong still in his eyes.

It's still a long way off, but the first step has already been taken.

Sun Shao caressed the railing, secretly a little proud in his heart, the building ship that had been modified by Ge Heng now looked just a little strange, and the speed was not faster than other merchant ships, but only he and a few cronies knew that if this ship moved forward with all its might, it could be more than fifty percent faster than any ship of the same size in this world in a short period of time.

Unfortunately, because the manpower is not enough to support a long period of full speed, otherwise it would not be a problem for him to refit two ships.

It seems that without finding a new energy source to replace it, these improvements will always be limited. Sun Shao touched his chin and blinked his eyes, a little distracted for a while.

"Aman." Sun Shangxiang screamed twice, and seeing that Sun Shao did not react, he stabbed him with a scabbard. Sun Shao was taken aback and looked at her in surprise: "What's wrong?" ”

"What do you want, I don't pay attention to talking to you, don't you annoy me." Sun Shang asked with a fragrant voice.

Sun Shao Khan, "How dare you, I'm thinking about the dinner." I wondered if my aunt should sit on my left or my right. ”

"Dinner?" Sun Shangxiang's eyes blinked, and he immediately changed his face: "Are you ready to eat again?" ”

"I'd like to give you a taste of the exotic stuff today, hehe." Sun Shao squeezed his eyes proudly, "As for what it is, it's a secret now." ”

"Shaft, it's still an ambush." Sun Shangxiang shouted happily, and then waved his hand disdainfully: "Alas, as long as there is food, it doesn't matter where you sit." ”
