"Since Brother Chen is the king of Yu, he naturally has a high opinion in his heart. After daring to ask for advice, Brother Chen thought, what is the form of my big text? Zhou Yu asked.

"This king grew up in the palace since he was a child, and he still has a general understanding of the affairs of this country and the country. In the Central Plains of China, we often had confrontations with the Qianguo in the south, and there was some friction with the Wei in the north, but we were friendly with the Liang in the west. In addition, the king of Tubo was potential on the plateau, eyeing the land of the Central Plains of China, and often had the intention of attacking, and from time to time sent troops to harass the boundaries of my Dawen and Liang countries. "Chen Jingui is the prince, and he must know these most basic situations.

"Then dare to ask Brother Chen, since the north and south of my Dawen country are not peaceful, and there are jackals watching in the southwest, how should I deal with such a fierce situation?" Zhou Yu asked.

"This king believes that the main enemy of our Wen country is the Qianguo in the south, which owns the states south of the Yangtze River and is rich in money and grain. Our Dawen army and the cadre army have fought several times, and when it comes to the combat strength of the soldiers, our civil army is not afraid at all, but the treasury of the Qianguo country is full, and the conquest is very costly, and the long-term war is not conducive to our country, so we have to call off the army every time to make a truce in order to plan for the future, which is really aggrieved! Speaking of this, Chen Jin's eyes were full of resentment, and the fists on the table clenched unconsciously.

"Your Highness only knows one thing, but you don't know the other." Zhou Yu's name for him has also changed.

"Oh? What is Brother Zhou's opinion? Chen Jin immediately seized the opportunity to ask.

"The military strength of our country is naturally slightly stronger than that of the Qianguo, but the reason for retreating several times is not only because of money and food. When the two countries exchanged troops, the soldiers and horses of the two provinces of Hedong and Hebei would certainly be transferred, and as the battle lasted for a long time, the loss of troops increased, and most of the soldiers and horses of the two provinces had to be transferred to the south to resist the enemy. Although the national strength of Wei in the north is not as good as that of Wen and Qian, if we take the opportunity to attack when our troops in the north of Wen are empty, then my Dawen will be in danger! Zhou Yu took another sip of the teacup and continued.

In addition, the longer the war between the two countries, the greater the loss of strength on both sides, the more beneficial it will be to Tibet. If the king of Tubo takes the opportunity to send troops to attack my Longyou Dao, it will be equally difficult for my Wenguo to parry, and the same is true for Qianguo. Therefore, although there are often wars between the two countries, they will not do their best to attack and kill. Once either of the two can no longer bear it, the Tubo people will enter the Central Plains and win the world. ”

"Listen to your words, the mouth is suddenly opened!" Chen Jin was extremely happy, when he was studying in the palace, he learned a lot of Taoism, but he rarely heard such a point-to-point discussion, which may be the reason why he rarely participated in court affairs.

"Your Highness, don't be too happy, this situation should be figured out from Your Majesty to the important ministers of the court. However, this dilemma has not improved in the slightest over the years, so His Highness should not think about the 'what' and 'why', but about how, that is, how to change the situation. Zhou Yu added.

"This ...... There are so many capable people and wise men in the DPRK and China who can't solve it, so what can I do with just one person? This is a difficult problem that no one can solve. Chen Jin sighed and said.

"Things are man-made, and there is no difficulty in this world that cannot be overcome. Some problems seem to be difficult to solve, but in fact, there are several problems that stand in the way of the core problem, and if the previous problems are not solved, then the most critical problems will naturally not be solved. Therefore, in order to solve these interlocking problems, it is necessary to separate them and solve the previous problems one by one, if so, perhaps what we thought was more difficult at first will eventually become easier. Zhou Yu had a kind smile on his face.

After hearing this, Chen Jin was thoughtful.

Many years later, Chen Jin talked about the content of this conversation with the people around him, and still felt that Zhou Yu's analysis was quite enlightening to him.

"Brother Chen, since you're done talking about business, it's time to talk about private matters, right?" Zhou Yu spent so much saliva, it was time for Chen Jin to talk about the key things.

"What do you mean, Brother Zhou?"

"Restaurants and mansions ......"

"Look at my brain, the shop of the restaurant is on Ningzheng Street, and the three-story one is; The mansion is in the east of the city, and Steward Li will take you there in person. I discussed with the shopkeeper, and he was willing to sell the store for 1,500 taels, and although Ningzheng Street was not the most prosperous street, it was not much worse. If you live in a house, you can do it for only 500 taels. Chen Jin informed Zhou Yu of the situation

"Thank you, Brother Chen! There is another matter below, I wonder if Brother Chen is willing to listen? Zhou Yu showed a sly smile.

"Brother Zhou, please tell me ......" Seeing Zhou Yu's ill-intentioned smile, Chen Jin was a little unsure.

"Is Brother Chen willing to take a stake in my restaurant?" Zhou Yu asked with a grin.

"Stake? What is shareholding? Chen Jin scratched his head, indicating that he did not understand.

"It's that the two of us jointly invest in the restaurant and run the restaurant together, and the two families share the profits." Zhou Yu explained.

"This ...... What is the shareholding method? Chen Jin was actually reluctant to buy any shares, but he still asked politely.

"My restaurant is positioned as a high-end restaurant, and the profits will definitely be very sufficient in the future, I want to start a business, and Brother Chen has helped me so much, so I will hand over forty percent of the equity to Brother Chen at a price of two thousand taels." Zhou Yu said.

Chen Jin was shocked, good guy, this is a restaurant and a house that he doesn't want to give out a penny!

He was about to refuse, but Zhou Yu took the lead and said: "Brother Chen, don't worry, if Brother Chen can't get back the principal of these two thousand taels within a year, I am willing to pay Brother Chen four thousand taels of silver!" ”

Now Chen Jin hesitated again, it sounds like this business is safe and profitable, it seems to be good!

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Jin decided to agree to him, after all, there are a lot of strange things in Zhou Yu's head, maybe he can really make a lot of money!

"Then I'll invest in individual stocks, the money for this restaurant and mansion, Brother Zhou doesn't need to give me any more, just invest the money in the hotel." Chen Jin agreed, but he didn't know why, he always had a feeling in his heart that he had been calculated by Zhou Yu......

"Then thank you Brother Chen!" Zhou Yu thanked him with a smile, and then said, "It's not too early, then I'll leave!" ”

Zhou Yu got up and prepared to leave, and Chen Jin also stood up to see him off.

"Brother Zhou, it's almost noon, why don't you have lunch in the house and leave?" Chen Jin didn't learn a lesson, and subconsciously opened his mouth when he shouldn't have spoken.

"Since Brother Chen warmly invited, then I will ......"

Chen Jin immediately regretted that he had spoken too much, eh, although it seemed that it was nothing to eat...... It's just that Zhou Yu's overly upright approach is really a bit ......

"Forget it, I'm going to rush home next, and I'm still waiting for me, so I won't stay in the house to eat." Zhou Yu thought for a while and said.

Chen Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"But I also want to try the craftsmanship of the palace, so I might as well ask the chef to make one, and bring it back to Neiko to taste, I don't know if it will trouble Brother Chen......" Zhou Yu said casually.

Chen Jin: "......" The corners of his mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a while.

Why is this person so thick-skinned? Why did he never understand that people just casually said politely? Why do you have to ask him so much......

Although Chen Jin felt very reluctant in his heart, he still couldn't admit it, otherwise where would he put the face of the Yu Palace?

"Brother Zhou, wait a minute, I immediately ordered the cook to make one for you to take away." Chen Jin chose to go to the kitchen in person to order, so as not to say something to give Zhou Yu a chance to ask for something.

Although Zhou Yu himself felt that this move was inappropriate, he also wanted to try the craftsmanship of the palace, make a horizontal comparison, and set a price when the restaurant opened. Of course, there are some other purposes as well......

The lunch of the palace had already been made, and Zhou Yu only waited for a quarter of an hour, and then left the palace of Yuwang comfortably with three dishes.

After Zhou Yu left, Steward Li walked up to Chen Jin and said, "Your Highness, this Zhou Yu is too ignorant of etiquette!" In the future, he will simply not let his house be counted, lest he come to ask for this and that again! ”

"No, although he acts a little upright, but the talent in his chest is real, just communicated with him, than when he studied for a month in front of his mother, he still has a harvest, and this king wants to communicate with him more in the future." Chen Jin waved his hand.

"Your Highness, has the Jade Concubine Niangniang received any recent letters?" Steward Li asked.

"No, no letters have been sent since the letter came three months ago. I hope that everything will be fine in the capital ...... the concubine" A trace of clouds appeared in Chen Jin's eyes, and he seemed to recall some past events.

…….

When Zhou Yu returned home, he happened to meet a few villagers who came to deliver wooden sticks, and Zhou Yu felt that there was no problem after inspecting it, so he asked Feng Liang to pay them.

"Xiao Yu, what did you bring back?" Feng Yue saw him carrying a big box and thought he had bought something again.

"I'm going to deliver wine to Chen Jin today, and by the way, let his cook make a few dishes and bring them back for you to taste."

Zhou Yu put the big box on the table, opened the lid of the box, and brought out all the dishes inside. There are three dishes in total, braised pigeon, donkey meat and steamed mandarin fish.

"Who is Chen Jin? Why does he eat so well at home? Feng Liang couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and taste the Huadiao donkey meat: "Don't say that this meat is really good, it's a fight with the mutton soup you made yesterday Xiao Yu!" ”

Feng Yue pulled his clothes and said in a low voice, "Chen Jin is His Royal Highness King Yu." ”

Feng Liang's chopsticks that were about to pick up the braised pigeon stopped in mid-air, slowly turned his head to look at Zhou Yu, and asked very unexpectedly, "Why did you bring back all the dishes in King Yu's mansion?" ”

"When I was leaving, he said that it was time for lunch, and asked me if I would like to stay for lunch, and I wanted to agree, but thinking that you are still waiting for me at home, how can I eat and drink alone in the palace? So I asked Chen to go in and talk to the cook, make one for you to bring back, and let's eat together! Zhou Yu explained the reason.

"Xiao Yu, you are really, people said that they invited you to lunch, but it was just polite, why are you still serious? It's rude to ask someone to make a copy and bring it back! Feng Yue complained.

"I can't tell he's just being polite? But I'm just not welcome, and when he stops being polite to me, he and I can become real friends. Zhou Yu put away the expression of smiling in the palace and said seriously.

"You want to make friends with King Yu?" Feng Yue looked at him, a pair of clear eyes revealing a complex color.

It is not easy for commoners and royals to have dealings with each other, the identity gap is too big, and it is even more difficult to become friends. What's more, Zhou Yu also said that King Yu may not be able to die well......

"Yes, Chen Jin is a good person, honest and honest, without any bad intentions, and he also pretends to be a good friend in his heart! It's that he has been the prince for more than ten years, and some of the shelves on his body are not quite able to put down, so he has to train a few more times......" Zhou Yu is already thinking about how to make Chen Jin a monkey.

"Okay, if you go to someone else for dinner a few more times, maybe you won't even be able to enter the door of the palace!" Feng Yue handed him a pair of chopsticks and said.

"I'm sure he's not that kind of person!" Zhou Yu tasted the donkey meat and said, "It's okay, I can give this dish a score of five." ”

"What's the perfect score?" Feng Liang asked curiously.

"Ten points." Zhou Yu took another piece of mandarin fish and tasted it, and said, "By the way, our restaurant and the residence in the city have been found, do you want to go and see it in the afternoon, I ......"

Zhou Yu was halfway through speaking, and suddenly there was no afternoon, and his face was red.

"What's wrong? What do you say? Feng Liang asked.

"When you eat fish, you still talk, and the fish bones are stuck!" Feng Yue went to the kitchen to bring the vinegar to Zhou Yu.

After a sip of vinegar, Zhou Yu coughed violently a few times, and finally got the fish bones out.

"Zero! Must be a zero score! Zhou Yu pointed at the mandarin fish angrily and said.
