Unlike the academy diary, this letter is thick, but it is all about the main point.

The time of writing the letter was the first day of the return journey of Gongsun Hao's army, that is, in July.

At the beginning, Xu Yue learned in Xu Mei's diary that the Xujiazhuang base had been built, and there was a conflict with the surrounding tribes.

The reason was that the tribal leader planned to marry Xu Mei by force, but was refused.

Now in the letter, the matter has come to fruition.

Xu Mei and the other students united with another tribe and wiped out the tribe that planned to marry Xu Mei, and the sphere of influence of the first base area in Xujiazhuang expanded again.

And because in this battle, the students of Xujiazhuang showed strong strength and advanced combat methods, which made the surrounding tribes quite fearful.

Relying on the temporary fear of the local natives for themselves and others, the Xujiazhuang branch in Jiaozhou developed rapidly.

Before the return of the big ship, Xu Nai and others were already opening up wasteland, tidying up farmland, capturing local tribesmen, and planting rice in a large area.

According to the current time, this batch of rice has matured, Xu Nai and others can already be self-sufficient, and there is surplus grain to continue to expand outward.

Under the banner of a caravan, they came to Jiaozhou to reclaim, intending to grow grain and transport it to the north to sell it to earn the difference.

Of course, the main thing is that the people in Xujiazhuang give too much!

The local government was originally served by the local indigenous chief, and the local Han officials in Qingguo only played a supervisory role, and they had long been wooed by the locals to become their own people for so many years.

Therefore, the actions of Xu Nai and others did not attract much attention from the local government.

Now Xu Nai and others have set up a base in Jiaozhou, but there is a shortage of manpower, so they applied to Xu Yue in the letter and sent another group of students over.

They need students who know how to farm, and they also need people who are proficient in arithmetic, management, and construction.

In other words, Xu Nai and others are ready to use Xujiazhuang as a template to establish a similar Xujiazhuang branch in Jiaozhou.

However, the theme was agricultural development, rice cultivation, supplemented by local light industry, and the construction of paper mills, textile mills, sugar mills, salt factories, and rubber factories with water power.

They want to realize the industrial power that Xu Yue once said in class in Jiaozhou, so as to achieve the purpose of continuously providing logistical supplies to the north.

Seeing the three words hydrodynamics, Xu Yue's brows wrinkled unconsciously.

The water power of Xujiazhuang actually relies on the water magic array of her sister Xu Erniang, otherwise, the difficulty of building a real water power factory is greatly improved, which is time-consuming and laborious, and the maintenance is also very troublesome.

If you want to build these factories in Jiaozhou, wouldn't you have to bring your sister's water magic array with you?

Xu Yue took a deep breath, suppressed this matter first, and continued to read another letter.

Xu Rong, one of the three girls, wrote this in late July.

When Gongsun Hao's big ship returned, he first went to Takashima to see Xu Rong and others who decided to stay on Takashima to spread civilization.

Xu Yue can now get the letter written by Xu Rong, which proves that the two remaining students have successfully infiltrated the local aborigines.

However, the method of religious belief is used.

Speaking of which, Xu Rong is also a genius, in order to master the local Gaoshan tribe natives and make them obey his orders, he actually created an identity as a messenger of the Heavenly God Clan out of thin air!

Xu Rong said that she was a maid serving the true God, and this time she went down to earth only to convey the will of the true God, educate the people, and help them get out of the sea of suffering as soon as possible.

With all kinds of small chemical experiments and those things taken from the Xu family, the local Gaoshan tribe really believed it, and regarded Xu Rong and others as guests, and prepared to build an altar to invite the true god to come.

Therefore, Xu Rong said in the letter that he begged Xu Yue to send her a true god, otherwise those wise people among the natives would suspect her.

Xu Yue: "......"

Let's just say, these students are one by one, can you not deviate!

But thinking about the territory of Gao Dao, Xu Yue swallowed her saliva, combined with the demands of Xu Nai and others in Jiaozhou, and decided to gather the family for a while and hold a family meeting to discuss which true god to send.

Xu Yue is serious, Jiaozhou and Gao Dao only rely on Xu Nai and others, and there is no one who leads the overall situation to suppress the formation, and after all, it is almost hot.

And they are a family of five, A-Niang is fighting, A-Dad is doing logistics for A-Niang, and there is still one person left in the family to maintain operation, and once the elder brother is out of control...... Xu Yue directly marked him out of the list of true god candidates.

Then, only she and her sister were left.

Xu Yue has already copied the books of the Yan Family Academy, and she can leave at any time.

If she really needed to send someone to Jiaozhou, Xu Yue felt that she was very suitable.

Gongsun Hao, who was lazily leaning on the soft pillow beside him, yawned, he had just squinted for a while, and when he saw that Xu Yue seemed to have finished reading the letter, he asked:

"My craftsmen have used the old ships to change two more sea boats, plus the Expedition No. 1, which has returned, now we have three sea ships, and the remaining sea ships are still under construction, and by the end of the year, we should be able to build five more."

"However, this is already the limit, if the action is a little bigger, the general will not let it go like this again."

The implication is that if the Xu family wants to do something big, they will have to do it next year at most.

Otherwise, work will have to be stopped.

But how can it be enough to rely on only eight sea ships?

Xu Yue and Gongsun Hao glanced at each other, and instantly felt the pressure on him.

But who doesn't feel stressed?

Now that Wubao has expanded to the current point, it is already the limit of Gongsun Zhan's tolerance, so they thought of Jiaozhou to develop secretly.

But shipbuilding is a big deal, and if it is placed in Yangzhou, which is famous for its water warfare, it is a felony to break the law if the merchant builds a large ship privately.

Once targeted, just button a hat, and it will be a catastrophe.

Gongsun Hao is worried about this.

The heart of the Xu family is well known to everyone in Yuyang Passers-by! How could Gongsun Chan not notice at all?

He just didn't think that his uncle had already colluded with the Xu family.

Fortunately, now that the forces of the Northland are fighting, Gongsun Chan still can't spare his hands to take care of these miscellaneous matters.

Moreover, he still has to use Wang Pingping and Xu Da, without this husband and wife, he will definitely fail miserably.

At least, now that the Guandu War is imminent, he will not move the Xu family, not only will he not move, but he must also appease them well, lest Xu Da and Wang Pingping join forces to stab him in the back!

In the final analysis, they are just using each other, and the loyalty of the Xu family is more brittle than grass.

Outsiders can't see that Gongsun Hao doesn't know, he only knows that now he and the Xu family are grasshoppers in the same boat, and they can't escape!

Fortunately, Gongsun Hao was not depressed for too long, Xu Yue brought him a few bottles of high wine, put ice cubes, drank freely, and his worries disappeared.

Xu Yue waited for Gongsun Hao to fall asleep drunk, put away the empty wine bottle on the table, nodded at Ah Da, and told him to take care of Gongsun Hao before leaving the hall.
