"That's much better than me marrying that idiot, so stupid." Xu Ning said with an indifferent expression. How could she not see the disadvantages of the marriage between the Xu family and the Sun family with her eyes.
Although the Xu family is not considered a wealthy family in the world, it still has some respect among the aristocratic families. The biggest advantage of marrying the Sun family is to help the Sun family pry a hole in the alliance between the Jiangdong family, but this is not a good job.
"Second Miss, although this place is under the rule of Liu Xuande, it's not good to say such things about the Sun family." The coachman, swinging his whip, said with a wry smile.
"Hmph, the only person I can see in the Sun family is Sun Bofu. As for Sun Zhongmou's successors, they are also a little narrow-minded. If something happens to Sun Bofu, the Sun family will definitely stop here in this life. As for the other Sun family heirs, they are just mediocre. Lu Lu." Xu Ning said with a smile, "Of course the same is true for the Xu family."
"" The coachman smiled bitterly and couldn't deal with it. His second daughter always did this.
"Let's go to Yecheng, Jackdaw and Luanfeng. We will know when the time comes." Xu Ning raised her eyebrows and said proudly. In her opinion, the world's talents must have her place.
I felt happy when Xu Ning left, but the Xu family was completely turned upside down. The original marriage with the Sun family turned into a farce because of Xu Ning's departure. Fortunately, I didn't post anything at the beginning, and now I don't care about the trouble. How powerful he is, and he has the ability to come back full circle.
"There is no other way. Marry another girl from the clan." The head of the Xu family has determined from the clues that his daughter has left Jiangdong. Most aristocratic families can only guarantee to solve the problem within their own radiation range, and Xu Ning has already left Jiangdong. The radiation range of the Xu family has been reached.
Unfortunately, this is a political marriage. It doesn¡¯t matter who the protagonist is. What¡¯s important is the alliance between the Sun and Xu families, which gives the Sun family an opportunity to join the current extremely exclusive Jiangdong Family Alliance.
"The second young lady of the Xu family actually ran away?" Sun Ce didn't know what he thought when he heard the news, but he burst into laughter. "I didn't expect that the Xu family's family style would give birth to such a refreshing woman."
Zhou Yu glared at Sun Ce angrily. This was trying to discredit the Sun family. Sun Ce actually had the nerve to smile so cheerfully.
"I personally don't agree with this marriage. If the second lady of the Xu family hadn't been five years older than my third brother, and if Yuan Tan and you hadn't persuaded me, I wouldn't have agreed to this nonsense." Sun Ce completely He didn't care about Zhou Yu's expression, and just said whatever he wanted based on his relationship with Zhou Yu.
"You don't understand. Sometimes aristocratic families seek this kind of peace of mind." Zhou Yu rolled his eyes and said, "But if you blow it, blow it, and leave the rest to me, so that this kind of thing doesn't happen again. Has Mr. Yuan done anything recently? What can I say to you?¡±
"There are a lot of things I don't understand. As long as you understand, it won't be a problem." Sun Ce said nonchalantly, "My uncle didn't say anything, he just told me that the world is big."
Zhou Yu nodded and said nothing more. He had met Yuan Shu several times recently, and he always felt that Yuan Shu looked at them with a touch of pity in his eyes, although it was probably just an illusion.
"Liu Xuande is going to marry Mrs. Zhang as his head wife. We are also preparing a gift for someone to take there. It just so happens that we still need to deal with the bank matter with Chen Zichuan, so Zizhong will go and pay a visit." Zhou Yu gave Sun Ce some advice after thinking about it. road.
"Ah, Gong Jin can handle this kind of trivial matter by himself. How about I help you wherever you need to take action?" Sun Ce decisively put aside such boring things. His favorite thing was to lead troops to fight. As for government affairs , he is really useless.
"Recently, we are preparing to take action against Jiaozhou, but this battle cannot be directed by you. Liu Xuande is intimidating the north. Based on his previous performance, I am afraid that the results will come as early as next year at the latest, so we also need to prepare." Zhou Yu sighed. said in a tone.
"The construction of sea-going ships on our side is still unclear. We still invest hundreds of millions of dollars, but overall we have made great progress in building ships and warships, but we are still in a state of ignorance about sea-going ships." Zhou Yu said helplessly.
Because Liu Bei, Yuan Shao, Gongsun and others in the north used sea ships one after another, now all the princes in the world basically know how to use sea ships. At most, some people master more and some master less. Zhou Yu hopes to build an elite fleet belonging to Sun Ce. .
Not to mention other things, the fleets of Gan Ning, Tai Shici and others appeared on the coast of Yangzhou several times. Although there was no attack, it was enough to make a wise man like Zhou Yu extremely fearful.
Although Zhou Yu did not know that there was Yizhou to the east of Yangzhou, the mere appearance of Gan Ning and others was enough for Zhou Yu to understand that the rear area, which he had previously thought was safe, was not really safe under the drag of sea ships.
What¡¯s more important is that Zhou Yu knows that his side will never be able to build bunkers and beacons along the coastline and station millions of troops to ensure the safety of coastal areas.
In this case, the only best option left is to build an excellent fleet. Not to mention attacking, at least it is not too difficult to defend one's own coastline.
However, it is a pity that since Zhou Yu and Sun Ce drove away the Lu family, Jiangdong has directly lost the core technology of sea-going ship manufacturing. Although Zhou Yu was very forward-looking and invested heavily in it, hoping to establish a naval fleet of his own as soon as possible. , but it is of no use.
Until now, Sun Ce's navy is still stuck on the issue of ship construction, and Zhou Yu has no good solution. Although he has converted the flat-bottomed boats into pointed-bottomed boats, the technical problems still cannot be solved.
So much so that Zhou Yu has now made up his mind that even if the pointed-bottomed boats just built are not up to standard, he must concentrate the power of the navy to warm them up. The several appearances of Gan Ning and Tai Shici on the sea have already given him a warning. Yu Zhouyu was given a big warning.
"Oh, Zizhong, this won't work. Zizhong still handles the military affairs of Jiaozhou and Yangzhou, and the bank affairs are still left to Zigang. Zigang told me that he would meet Chen Zichuan." Sun Ce rarely rejected Zhou Yu's proposal. There was no way anyone could make him agree to Zhang Hong first.
Speaking of which, Zhang Hong really wanted to see Chen Xi after he regretted it. Although he has now switched to someone else, this idea has not changed. In fact, it has become even more serious.
"Then let Mr. Zhang go. Zizhong will go to deal with the military affairs of Jiaozhou and Yangzhou. The Jingnan area will be handed over to Shiyuan. After this battle is over, we will stop first and take a good rest internally." Zhou Yu nodded without asking why.
"Okay, I'll do what you said." Sun Ce said proudly, "I couldn't go to the battle of Jiaozhou at the beginning, so I won't be left out in the final battle."
"No problem." Zhou Yu responded helplessly. Sun Ce has such a character, and he has gotten used to it after so many years.
