"Come on, come on, Jingzhong Xian nephew drink this cup full!" Wu Sangui, as the host, took the lead in raising his wine glass to catch Geng Jingzhong.

"Xie Shibo's hospitality! Respectfully, little nephew! Geng Jingzhong hurriedly picked up his wine glass and lowered his posture.

Shang Kexi sat next to him, and also said: "The speed of Jingzhong and virtuous brother is fast enough, you just went to the capital in the New Year, this is from the capital to Kunming, seven or eight thousand miles, so soon, it really makes my brother admire!" In fact, Shang Zhixin's words can be understood by Geng Jingzhong, he is greedy for Fujian's warships. A few months ago, Fujian shipbuilding was short of timber, and Geng Jingzhong sent people to Guangzhou to contact Shang Zhixin. After Shang Zhixin hung for a while, he still put forward the condition of trading with warships as Geng Jingzhong expected.

Since Geng Jingzhong and Li Guangdi have already taken countermeasures, the deal is also a deal. Geng Jingzhong's cost of building a third-class warship requires 200,000 silver dollars, so if it is sold to the outside world, of course, it cannot be the cost price, and if there is no profit of more than half of the profit in business, it is not called making money, so the price of warships at all levels is fifty percent more than the cost price. That is, a third-class battleship costs three hundred thousand. Both sides took what they needed, and in fact, Shang Zhixin took advantage of it. He mobilized the people in Guangdong to help him cut wood, and there was almost no cost, and the future warships were quite few and were earned in vain. Although Geng Jingzhong was ready to deliver to him some goods that cut corners, there was still no problem in using them for five or six years.

"The younger brother has won the prize, and the younger brother also relied on the convenience of HNA, if he came from the capital on horseback. One is suspicious of Kangxi. Second, the speed is also slow. It's good to be able to arrive in two months! Geng Jingzhong said with a smile. Wu Sangui's time calculation is also quite accurate, he received the edict earlier than the other two kings, after all, Yunnan is the farthest, and the Ministry of Rites is the first to send people to Yunnan. When he wrote to Wu Yingxiong, telling him that he was sick and asked him to meet him on his behalf, a few days later, he wrote a letter again and sent it to the capital to invite Geng Jingzhong to come to Yunnan to meet him. This front and back foot kung fu. Geng Jingzhong was just about to return home, and Wu Sangui's letter was delivered.

"Hahaha, the two virtuous nephews don't have to be polite, let's talk about your trip to Beijing." Wu Sangui didn't know about the transaction between them at all, and he didn't hear anything wrong, so he just thought that the two sides were polite, so he changed the topic and said.

"Ah, good, good!" Geng Jingzhong didn't want to have any argument with Shang Zhixin, and when he heard Wu Sangui's question, he immediately turned around and replied: "Shibo is like a god. As you said in your letter, Kangxi really wanted to do that trick. This time, Kangxi summoned our three feudal clans to Beijing. I wanted to learn from Zhao Kuangyin and give us a glass of wine to release the military power, but unfortunately Jiang is still old and spicy, Shibo, you are a step ahead, you saw through Kangxi's plan, and broke it. The little nephew is here to thank Shibo! As he spoke, he raised his glass again and toasted Wu Sangui.

The three of them drank all the wine in the cup, and Geng Jingzhong continued: "Shibo, I found out that the little emperor wrote the three major national policies on the pillars of the Qianqing Palace, and the first one is to withdraw the feudal domain. Collect Yunnan, Guichuan first, and then collect Guangdong and Fujian! ”

Wu Sangui thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "He wants to do this, but he won't yet." The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were afraid that the withdrawal of the feudal domain would cause accidents and delay their good days of promotion and wealth. The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang should also be reluctant to withdraw the feudal domain, because he is the most unwilling to see the world disrupted. In any case, let's guard our own territory and respond to all changes without change! Here, have another drink! ”

After finishing the wine in the glass, Geng Jingzhong turned his head slightly to Shang Zhixin on the opposite side and continued: "Brother Shang, when the younger brother was out of Beijing, I heard that the Fu Honglie that the brother arrested on the orders of the old man, Kangxi has pardoned him, and maybe he wants to reuse him. There is also news that the emperor intends to send him to Guangxi. If this is really the case, I am afraid that it will be more disadvantageous to the brother and uncle of Zhixin. ”

Shang Zhixin, who was sitting next to him, didn't wait for Wu Sangui to answer, and then laughed: "Hahaha, Brother Jingzhong, you can't help but take Fu Honglie too seriously." To say, this person is purely a scholar, although he can also write a few articles, and he knows a little bit of military affairs. The little emperor wants to send him to Guangxi, which is nothing more than to put a nail under my nose and add a little trouble to Wu Shibo. It's not that I'm boasting, if you want to deal with him, you can take him down with just one charge, that guy is a pure silver pewter spearhead. ”

"Brother Shi don't take it lightly, I heard that this person still has some ability, although Kangxi is small, but he is very courageous and very visionary, he can put Fu Honglie in such an important position, it is enough to explain the problem!" Geng Jingzhong carefully advised. After saying to Shang Zhixin, Geng Jingzhong continued to say to Wu Sangui: "Shibo, it's not that I have the ambition of others to destroy my own prestige, this little emperor Kangxi is indeed very scheming and courageous, and it is not unjust to be defeated in his hands. ”

"Oh, Kangxi is really so powerful, the virtuous nephew thinks too much!" Wu Sangui pursed his lips and said, obviously, he was a little skeptical of Geng Jingzhong's words, no matter how powerful Kangxi was, he was just a hairy young man who was less than eighteen years old, how powerful could he be. Could it be that Geng Jingzhong was co-opted by the imperial court and began to say good things for Kangxi?

"Not at all." Geng Jingzhong continued. "Shibo must not think that Kangxi is young, so he will not take him to heart. This time in the capital, looking at his actions and usual speech and behavior, it is indeed a very set. Just when I entered the palace with Brother Ying Xiong and Shang Shibo, Kangxi also sang a good show of foreign Tartars, and used us to attack the Russian old Maozi in the north. As he spoke, he told the story of what happened in the capital in detail again.

"From this point of view, this little emperor Kangxi really can't be underestimated!" Wu Sangui nodded and said.

"That's not all! After the summons were over, Kangxi also left the next general alone"

"What? Leave you? Shang Zhixin immediately shouted. Wu Sangui also stared at Geng Jingzhong suspiciously.

"Why should Brother Shi be so exaggerated. Kangxi left his younger brother alone, and as you think, Kangxi wants to win over and divide the alliance of our three feudatories. But brother, do you think the little brother is stupid? We are both prosperous and lossy, and I am not so short-sighted! Here I can swear that between the imperial court and our three feudatories, I will always stand in the camp of the three feudatories! If you violate this oath, you will be pierced by ten thousand arrows! Geng Jing said with a swear.

"Okay, good, nephew can be so good!" Wu Sangui's doubts disappeared and said with a smile.

"Shibo, Shibrother, in the final analysis, if we want the imperial court not to covet us, we must have enough capital. For this reason, the little nephew is still built, the three of us should come and go frequently, strengthen cooperation in all aspects, and communicate with each other, so that it is a long-term strategy, Shibo, Shibrother, what do you two think! When it came to the whole topic, Geng Jingzhong put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"That's good." Shang Zhixin was the first to speak. "Brother Fool has long coveted those artillery pieces of Brother Xian, I don't know if I can transfer some to Brother Wei, what conditions are easy to say." Shang Zhixin is beating snakes with sticks, and immediately made a request, it seems that he seems to be a gentleman, his mouth is open, but in fact, he is scheming. Although he reached an agreement with Fujian on the exchange of timber for warships, it did not include artillery. Geng Jingzhong always refused to agree to deploy artillery on the battleships in Guangdong, citing his lack of artillery.

"This, since the younger brother has proposed it, the younger brother will try his best to do it. Even if some of my horsetail sailor ships are vacant, I will also give up dozens of doors to hand over to my brother! Geng Jingzhong frowned slightly, but he still agreed, after all, this mention was proposed by him. He didn't want the Shang family to increase artillery, Guangdong was too close to Fujian, and once the two families had friction, the Shang family would have a large number of cannons, which would also bring trouble to Fujian. Shang Zhixin is too capricious to be trusted.

Wu Sangui's Yunnan and Guizhou provinces are not close to Fujian and Guangdong, so he is not too keen on this mention, Wu Sangui feels that he can manage Yunnan and Guizhou provinces well, plus Sichuan Province is also within his sphere of influence, and he does not need to have too many connections with Guangdong and Fujian in civil affairs. "The artillery in the virtuous nephew's army is indeed powerful, if you can, how about I exchange horses with horses?" Wu Sangui is scheming in the end, unlike Shang Zhixin, who just writes a blank check and can't say anything practical.

"I heard that Shibo and Tibet have opened a tea and horse market, and a large number of horses enter Yunnan every year, which is exactly what the little nephew lacks. Shibo can cut love, that's the best. After returning to Fujian, I will definitely try to make up a part of it and send it to the hands of Shibo and Shige! Geng Jingzhong didn't expect Wu Sangui to be so sharp, presumably he really saw the sharpness of the artillery.

Geng Jingzhong's guess was right, since Geng Jingzhong traded with Wu Sangui once last time, Wu Sangui got a hundred cannons. Especially the dozens of Hongyi cannons, the scene of artillery salvo is indeed very shocking, and the power is also very huge. Although the Hongyi cannon is a little heavier, there is no shortage of horses in Yunnan, which is much stronger than Fujian. Three horses pull a cannon and run easily.

"In other aspects, the little nephew will send someone to hand over the handover, and I hope that Shibo and Shige will take care of it at that time! Come, both! As he spoke, Geng Jingzhong picked up his glass again.

Full of wine and food, the three of them did not disperse, but came to the main hall together to enjoy the singing and dancing together. In the past half a month, Shang Zhixin has admired it every day, but he is a lustful person himself, and of course he never gets tired of watching it. However, today Geng Jingzhong is here, and it is still important to discuss important matters, and the style of those gentlemen in the past has also been somewhat restrained. The three of them came to the main hall and enjoyed the song and dance together, while still talking about big things. (To be continued......)
