Chapter 363 Lu Su's Doubts(1/2)
Chapter 363 Lu Su’s doubts (third update)
Xiling City, in the mansion.
Lu Su paved in the yard with an anxious expression.
Sun Quan's letter arrived the day before yesterday. When he first arrived, Lu Su felt a little disobedient.
Liu Feng is unwilling to suffer losses. If the calculation fails, he might suffer more losses.
The last time, the Ganning Western Expedition was the best example.
However, Sun Quan's bewitching was also very successful. After thinking about it, Lu Su also felt that it was feasible.
Liu Feng was strong, but he was very capable, and his advisers under the tent gradually became fuller. It can be said that he had almost no weaknesses.
The only weakness is greed, extremely greedy.
This can be seen nakedly from Liu Feng's plunder of Xinye and Jiangdongzhong.
In other words, Sun Quan's plan will be successful. As long as Liu Feng extorted Jiaozhou people once, it will cause a three-party war.
If Lu Su is still worried, it is Liu Feng's death.
If Liu Feng was really a person who would rather be broken than full of food, then he would lose a lot of money when the troops arrived at the city and burned all the food.
But Lu Su thought about it and gradually did not believe that Liu Feng would do that. Millions of stones of grain were said to be burned. There were no such a prodigal person in the world.
After more than 100,000 troops of two families entered the north, Liu Feng would definitely compromise, and he would definitely compromise.
Therefore, Lu Su's heart gradually became relieved these days.
The reason for being anxious now is that there are followers who have come to report that Shi Yi is here and is currently at the gate of the city.
"Mr. Zhuan, Shi Yi was personally welcomed by Liu Feng to General Yang Wu's mansion." Suddenly, a follower came in to report.
"Welcome in in person?" Lu Su asked with a flash of surprise and suspicion.
"I welcomed it in person." The follower affirmed. He had seen Liu Feng once and was deeply impressed.
Somehow, after hearing this news, a little uneasiness flashed through Lu Su's heart.
Liu Feng actually greeted him personally, and neither Mi Zhu nor him had enjoyed such treatment. Why did Jiaozhou meet?
Does Liu Feng want to get close to Jiaozhou?
But according to Liu Feng's greedy personality, he should not let go of his greed and give Jiaozhou a low price, right?
Although he thought it was impossible, Lu Su was really uneasy.
At this moment, Liu Feng received Shi Yi in General Yang Wu’s mansion.
The two had a great time talking. Liu Feng asked carefully about the situation in Shiyi Jiaozhou, and Shiyi answered in detail.
Liu Feng discovered that Jiaozhou was even more complicated than he thought. It was known as Baiyue, and there were countless tribes. Shi Xie could rely on his own strength to suppress Baiyue.
He is really a capable person.
Liu Feng sighed sincerely and immediately won Shi Yi's favor.
"Although my brother owns Jiaozhou, he has no ambitions. One reason is that he is old and has no power. The other is that he is well aware of the weaknesses of Jiaozhou. He may be called a strong people and can raise elite soldiers. However, he does not have great talents. He has a lack of talents, and his land is also barren. As well as the hundreds of Yue people, he has too few Han people. This is the biggest reason that restricts the development of Jiaozhou. Only by looking up to the Central Plains can he preserve the rule of Jiaozhou under the threat of countless hundreds of Yue people, and holds it in the hands of the Han people." Shi Yi said sincerely.
"So, the governor of Shi was close to Jiangdong, hoping to rely on Jiangdong to protect Jiaozhou?" Liu Feng was a little impressed by Shi Xie.
According to Shi Yi, combined with historical views.
Shi Xie was not only gentle and kind, but also had this extraordinary persistence towards the Han people ruling Jiaozhou.
Relying on a strong country, protect Jiaozhou.
This is why Shi Xie kept approaching Sun Quan in history, and even Sun Quan arranged Jiangdong officials in Jiaozhou, and Shi Xie also allowed him.
That is to say, if Liu Feng defeated and annexed Jiangdong, Shi Xie would approach him, just like conquering Jiaozhou in history.
He can also easily conquer Jiaozhou.
Thinking of this, Liu Feng smiled slightly, and the 200,000 stones were considered to help the people in the future.
At this moment, Jiang Wan walked in.
There was a little sweat on his face, and he looked quite hurried. In addition, there were some weirdness.
"Lord, 200,000 stones of grain are ready and you can set off at any time." After Jiang Wan entered the door, he reported.
Just half an hour ago, Jiang Wan was ordered to mobilize food.
"Thank you for your hard work, Gong Yan." Liu Feng nodded with satisfaction, then looked up and asked Shi Yi, "I wonder when the old man will set off?"
"The major issues of people's livelihood cannot be delayed, so let's go immediately." Although Shi Yi felt something was wrong and his bones were about to fall apart, he still said firmly.
First Jiangdong, then Jiangxia, from death to life. Shiyi attaches great importance to this batch of food.
Liu Feng was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Shi Yi to be so anxious. But seeing Shi Yi solemn, Liu Feng did not make things difficult for him.
"Please go for another trip to prepare for the old man." Liu Feng turned his head and said to Jiang Wan.
"No." Jiang Wan responded, then said to Shi Yi again: "Sir."
"Thank you, thank you." Shi Yi said thank you twice, then bowed to Liu Feng and walked out. Jiang Wan raised her heels.
"Jiaozhou? Elephant?" Liu Feng smiled slightly.
After the two left, Liu Feng was not busy with anything else. He just waited for Jiang Wan to come back here. The food was ready, so it should be very fast to send Shi Yi out.
Just as Liu Feng thought, it was indeed very fast.
Half an hour later, Jiang Wan walked back.
"Lord, Mr. Shi has set out to return to Jiaozhou." Jiang Wan bowed to Liu Fengyi.
"Where are those things?" Liu Feng asked with concern.
"The gold, silver and jewelry have been sealed, and ten elephants and animal trainers have been arranged near the ranch outside the city." Jiang Wan replied.
Then, a strange look appeared on Jiang Wan's face and said, "Lord, that piece of gold, silver and jewelry is not like the thin gifts that Shi Yi said, but a very thick gift."
"It's very thick?" Liu Feng said in a slight moment.
At the beginning, the negotiated price was based on the market price, which is 100,000 shi, 4,000 gold, 200,000 shi, 8,000 kilograms.
At that time, Shi Yi kept silent about giving money, and only said that next time someone would come with the elephant and money. In addition, he also gave a small gift.
He claimed to be a polite person.
Liu Feng didn't care either, he was not interested in gifts or something.
But listening to Jiang Wan's words seemed a bit heavy.
"Those gold, silver and jewelry are roughly estimated to be worth less than 30,000 gold." Jiang Wan nodded.
"What?" Liu Feng said in surprise.
Thirty thousand gold? Is it a slight ritual? What kind of world is this?
If this is the case, his 200,000 s of grain sold will not only not lose money, but will make a big profit.
You know, when Zhang Dao and his team purchased grain, they only cost about 3,000 shi and 200,000 shi. The cost of 6,000 shi.
Now, the 30,000 gold gift is equivalent to making five times more profitable. And the elephant is added.
After being surprised, Liu Feng could only sigh.
"Jiaozhou has a barren land, a sparse population, and fewer scholars. However, there are a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, and maybe the only thing that is poor is left is money."
"There are many mountains and rivers, so there are more minerals. Moreover, it is easier to absorb pearls and other objects by the sea." Jiang Wan nodded.
Liu Feng's eyes were hot.
The biggest fundamental restricting the development of Jiaozhou is that the roads are blocked, the mountains are stretched, and there is too much miasma.
As long as these troubles are solved, the grain from the Central Plains can enter Jiaozhou, and the gold and jewelry from Jiaozhou can also flow into the Central Plains.
Liu Feng doesn't have to worry about these things. As long as there is profit, a large number of businessmen will do this.
If a Jiaozhou is used well, the production funds will be enough to support it for a long time.
This investment has really made a lot of money.
"By the way, lord, are you really going to do that?" Jiang Wan asked suddenly.
"Why don't you do that? Since Sun Quan dares to conspire and trick, he has to pay the price." Liu Feng immediately knew what Jiang Wan was saying, and sneered when he heard this.
I don't have a good impression of Sun Quan and Liu Feng, but I really don't have a good impression of him. Now that I'm about to die and ask him for everything, I'm actually making conspiracies.
Liu Feng was really annoyed and decided to play a big one this time.
"Oh." Jiang Wan sighed when he heard this.
Liu Feng's method of making Sun Quan obedient is very poisonous and very poisonous. It is also a lot of waste, but even Jiang Wan has to admit that if Liu Feng really did it, Sun Quan would be well-behaved like a cat.
And he obediently gave 600,000 people and 200,000 kilograms of iron.
In Xiling City, with Jiang Wan's big move, the loading and transporting of 200,000 stones of grain was also smoothly received the news.
When Lu Su heard the follower's reward like this, he couldn't believe it.
