Chapter 245: The Southbound Fleet

The southbound fleet was so large that if you look back at the boat with the words "Chang Hua Bo, Canal Governor Qian" hanging at the front, you may not be able to see the one at the rear; The fleet was divided into several parts, and at the forefront were the ships that opened the way along the way, and in addition to flying this flag, there were also the most astute subordinate officers and elite soldiers under Qian Sa.

Behind them were the ships that escorted Li You's military supplies, each of which was guarded by capable soldiers he had summoned from the forbidden army to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

In the middle of the fleet are the boats of Changhua Bo Qian Sa, Jiazhou Bo Li You, Hanlin Bachelor Zhou Shou, and Li You's Yao Guangxiao, Fan Li and others, these ships are comfortably decorated and well-equipped, and they don't feel much fatigue even if they travel long distances.

The last ones are the ships that transport grain to the capital, and they will not return empty-handed when they return, but always carry some goods from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River to sell, and even some merchants will pay a sum of silver and set off with the ship; This is also the usual way to make money on Cao Yun, Qian Sa naturally will not interfere, but just orders not to let the people on the boat behind affect the tranquility in front.

Li You did not return directly to his ship after saying goodbye to his relatives and friends who came to see him off, this time it was because of Qian Sa's relationship that he was able to find so many ships, and he should always thank others first, so he came to Qian Sa's ship first; After uploading, I found out that his father-in-law Zhou Shou also had the same idea as him, and the two old men were setting up a banquet on the bow of the boat, drinking while admiring the prosperity of the canal and the smoke willows on both banks.

"Li You meets Uncle Qian and his father-in-law." After getting on the boat, Li You saluted respectfully, and glanced at it by the way, but did not see Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Nan, perhaps because Qian Sa did not bring his family and was not very convenient.

"Say something polite in front of us, sit down and have a drink together." Qian Sa and Zhou Shou are also old friends, so they let Li You sit down without seeing anything, "Brother Ji has chosen a good son-in-law, but it's a pity that my daughter was born a little late, otherwise you will never be able to get it easily." ”

Qian Sa has many children, in addition to Qian Hua, there are three sons and four daughters, the eldest daughter was born a year later than Zhou Nan, otherwise, according to the relationship between the old Jiazhou Bo and Qian Sa, it is really possible for Li You and the Qian family to get married.

"Hehe, you have so many sons, don't you allow the old man to find a better half-son?" Zhou Shou only has an only daughter like Zhou Nan, which was a little regretful, but with a son-in-law like Li You, he was a little relieved.

After drinking two glasses of wine with the two old men, Li You asked, "Uncle, I don't know when Brother Qian will leave Beijing?" "A few days ago, Qian Hua said that he was going to leave with Qian Sa, but this time he didn't appear on the boat, so Li You was a little strange.

"Your Majesty has approved his request to leave Beijing, but I still have some things to pack in the capital's mansion, so he will leave two days late, but there are few others and few boats, maybe he will catch up before he arrives in Qiantang." Qian Sa looked at Li You and sighed, he had been in the officialdom for many years before he saw that there was a great change in Beijing, so he withdrew and left, but he didn't expect Li You to see this at a young age; And there are talents like Master Dao Yan under him, and his future is limitless.

"So the little nephew is relieved." Li You raised his glass and toasted Qian Sa, everything was silent, it seemed that Qian Sa was going to empty the mansion in Beijing like him this time.

"In the future, when I get to Qiantang, I also plan to organize a group training in accordance with His Majesty's will, and the virtuous nephew will have a lot of help at that time." Qian Sa asked without hesitation, Li You agreed without hesitation, and the three patrols arrived at the first resting place, and Li You also took this opportunity to say goodbye and came to another ship.

Like Qian Sa's boat, Yao Guangxiao and Fan Li also set up tables and chairs at the bow of the boat, but they did not drink, but consumed time by playing games.

Seeing this scene, Li You was slightly stunned, Fan Li still plays Go? But after thinking about it, since there was already a Go master like Yi Qiu in the Spring and Autumn Period, it was not surprising that the famous Fan Lihui would make this move; After looking at it for a while, Yao Guangxiao, who had absorbed thousands of years of Go experience more than Fan Li, finally had a few advantages and easily won the game.

"The master's chess skills are really superb, and I am willing to bow to the wind." Fan Li didn't think about winning or losing, and admitted defeat with a smile.

"It's not that the poor monk's chess skills are higher than the doctor's, but that he has learned a little more from the experience of his predecessors." In the Spring and Autumn Period, Go was still developing, and the changes in the chess game were far less thorough than those studied by later generations, and it was reasonable for Yao Guangxiao, who had absorbed the experience of Gu Shiyan and Wang Jixin, to defeat Fan Li.

"In the future, I will definitely ask the master for advice." Perhaps compared to Go, Fan Li is more interested in the Buddhism that he has never experienced, but there are more important things to do at the moment, he turned to Li You and said, "Your Majesty, now that the trading company in the capital has been built, these days and Chen Jinglong, Lord Qian and others have discussed, the problem of the purchase, sale and transportation of goods has been solved, before leaving, I have ordered someone to prepare the first batch of materials needed in Jiazhou, and it will be transported to Jiazhou later." ”

"There's Dr. Lao Fan." Chen Jinglong is the head snake in the capital, whether he wants to buy or sell, he is right, Qian Sa is in charge of the canal, it is extremely convenient to transport materials, coupled with Fan Li's business talent, this newly opened trading company will not lose money no matter what, "After arriving in Jiazhou, there are still many things to worry about the two of you to help." ”

"That's what we should do." Whether it is Yao Guangxiao or Fan Li, they don't pay much attention to glory and wealth, but enjoy the process of achieving a career, these days the two of them have not been in contact, and discussed a set of strategies on how to govern Jiazhou, the three of them retired the left and right servants, and discussed in a whisper on the bow of the ship.

"The strategy of the two is almost perfect, and I admire it slowly." These two people are compound talents, in addition to Fan Li's outstanding business talent, he has made great achievements in governing the country and using the room; In addition to being good at conspiracy layout, Yao Guangxiao is also proficient in the way of governing the country and the art of balance, and he is also involved in vertical and horizontal cooperation.

The two of them are enough to serve as prime ministers in any country, and Li You has gathered the two of them at once, and now they only need to be thoroughly familiar with the situation in Great Wei, and Li You will not have to worry about cumbersome political affairs in the future, and can use more energy to train troops.

There are Yao Guangxiao, Fan Li, and Wu have fierce generals like Zhou Bofu, and Li You is already a little impatient to return to Jiazhou to show his strength. (To be continued.) )
