Chapter 324: Tooth for Teeth (First Update)

While thinking, a sound of footsteps sounded, but Jiang Wan walked in.

"Lord." Jiang Wan bowed to Liu Feng. Her formal clothes supported Jiang Wan with great dignity.

Seeing Jiang Wan wearing a regular suit, Liu Feng felt a little apologized. Although he was very leisurely, Jiang Wan, as the prefect of Jiang Xia, was not leisurely.

Just strengthening the river channel makes Jiang Wan very busy.

However, I can only apologize in my heart.

There is really no one available.

"Pong Yan sits." Liu Feng pointed to the empty seat on the side and said.

"Thank you lord." Jiang Wan responded and sat down naturally.

"This time I came to find Gong Yan to deal with Lu Su." After Jiang Wan sat down, Liu Feng smiled slightly.

"Oh? Is the envoy of Jiangdong Lu Su?" Although Jiang Wan said oh, there was no surprise on her face. For a moment, Lu Su is the one who is deeply trusted by Sun Quan.

"Well, Gong Yan had already contacted Lu Su on his mission to Jiangdong last time, so he should be more relaxed in dealing with it." Liu Feng nodded and smiled.

Then, Liu Feng nodded fiercely and said, "This is because Jiangdong has asked me for me and sent an envoy to make peace. We must make a good plan and try our best to add some benefits."

"Under the current situation in Jiangdong, there are no other benefits that can be given except for Shanyue people. Gold, silver and jewelry are spent on the conquest of Shanyue, and the granary has also bottomed out. There are some minerals in the rest." Jiang Wan was a little embarrassed to count the things Jiangdong could do at present.

Minerals may not be able to be used, and that thing is used to make weapons. Unless it is absolutely necessary.

Apart from minerals, it seems that Jiangdong has nothing left.

Liu Feng was amused when he heard this. It seemed that in Jiangdong, except for some soft savings, other hard savings, such as grain, gold, copper coins, etc., were exhausted.

The jingle of poverty.

There was an indescribable joy in his heart. Liu Feng smiled slightly and said, "The Shanyue people and minerals will be discussed later. Now the main thing is shipbuilding."

"Boatman?" Jiang Wan's eyes lit up and she said.

"Yes, they may be coming here because they want to share the waterway with us, and there are excuses. Just say that our boatmen are not enough and cannot build those sea boats. If Jiangdong can send a hundred boatmen over, they can consider it." Liu Feng smiled and nodded.

Then, he said, "But, that will take some time."

"I understand." Jiang Wan was already clear and couldn't help but say.

At present, what Jiangxia lacks most is shipwrecks, all of which are pieced together. They are far less powerful than Jingchu and Wuyue.

Taking advantage of the benefits, it is a big deal to get some early.

One hundred boatmen, plus their family is small, at least one thousand people, which is enough to make Sun Quan feel distressed for a while.

However, these losses caused by Liu Feng's troops to Jiangdong were all small losses. Think about it, as soon as Gan Ning set out to fight, how many granaries of cities were burned, how many ferries were burned, and how many warships were burned.

So, in the end, Sun Quan would still agree.

Then, the king and his ministers talked about the details, and Jiang Wan hurriedly went down to prepare.

The time from Xiakou to Xiling is short, and Lusu may have approached Xiling City at this time.

After some preparation, Jiang Wan led some minor officials and soldiers out of the west of Xiling City and waited outside the gate.

At this moment, Lusu's convoy was about one mile away from Xiling City.

There were hundreds of people in the group, including dozens of carriages and 200 guards. The vehicles were provided by Ganning, and most of them were loaded with some local specialties from Jiangdong.

Lu Su sat in a carriage in front of him, his face calmly, but a sigh flashed in his eyes.

This time, the burden on Lu Su's shoulders was very heavy.

Last time, Jiang Wan was on an envoy, Jiangxia, who seemed to be weak, wanted to compromise and discuss the waterway with Jiangdong. At that time, Jiangdong was self-reliant and had no sincerity to let the two families share the waterway.

Now, his mission is exactly the same as Jiang Wan's mission.

However, the situation was completely opposite. Jiang Xia's strength and the ability of the navy have changed dramatically.

Although Jiang Xia may not be strong, Jiangdong is really not as good as Jiang Xia in terms of the navy.

Lu Su remembered that the last time Jiang Wan was on an envoy, Sun Quan said he could not come out of illness, and he received everything on his behalf. I don’t know what Jiang Xia would look like.

Lu Su sighed in his heart.

Soon, the mile was completed.

Xiling City gradually jumped into Lu Su's eyes. Lu Su has come to this city once. Although the city does not have to go to Wucheng and Moling City in Jiangdong, it is also of medium and upper level.

Especially the defense is amazing.

As long as 20,000 troops are stationed, even 100,000 people can withstand it for a long time.

The last time I came, I asked Liu Feng to return Zhou Yu's eldest son. Lu Su sighed even more.

This time, it's really hard to deal with.

"Stop." The soldiers escorted the team were Ganning's navy. A military marquis walked in front of him and called to stop. Then they rode their horses to the next side of Lusu's carriage and said, "Mr. Zijing, Jiangxia Prefect Jiang is waiting outside the city gate."

Without this military marquis reminding him, Lu Su could already see Jiang Wan.

Nodding, Lu Su walked off the carriage and went up to meet him.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Mr. Zijing is so good." Jiang Wan raised her fist and said with a smile.

"But it hurts my brain." Lu Su sighed and said with a little deeper meaning.

"Haha, if you are tired of traveling, you can go to the prefect's house to rest first." Jiang Wan said with a smile.

Seeing that Jiang Wan didn't seem to hear the profound meaning of his words, or he was pretending to be confused.

Lu Su sighed again in his heart, and was even more worried about this mission.

"It's really tired, it's just the advice of Wu Hou, and I have to do my best." Lu Su smiled and said.

"In this way, please ask Mr. Zijing to go to the prefect's house." Jiang Wan said with a smile.

"Please." As he said that, Jiang Wan reached out to let Lu Su get on the carriage.

"Please." Lu Su clasped his fists at Jiang Wan, and then sat on the carriage. Jiang Wan also stepped on the carriage.

The two teams merged into one and headed towards the prefect's mansion.

After arriving at the prefect's mansion, Jiang Wan asked the military marquis to return to Xiakou to report the country's mansion. The local specialties brought by Lu Su will be temporarily placed in the front yard of the prefect's mansion.

After giving the order, Jiang Wan took Lu Su into the hall.

Originally, Jiang Wan planned to play some singing and dancing, but Lu Su didn't have the time to listen, so she gave up.

After sitting down with each other, Lu Su spoke first. He raised his fist and said to Jiang Wan: "The day before yesterday, the two families had fought against each other. Today, the Marquis of Wu sent me here, but it was so that the two families could turn wars into jade and eliminate the misunderstandings." As he said that, Lu Su pulled out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve.

Holding it in his hand, a servant behind Jiang Wan immediately stepped forward a few steps, took the bamboo slips from Lu Su's hand, and handed them to Jiang Wan.

After Jiang Wan took it, she swept it briefly.

Not only are there some local specialties from Jiangdong, but also some jade and bronze ware. Even if it is exchanged between the two countries, it is quite rich.

This sincerity seems to have been achieved.

But in fact, it is just a cloud. You have to seek ten times or a hundred times the benefits of giving. This is the country. Without vast interests, how can you bear to be willing to cost?

After Jiang Wan swept it briefly, she calmly placed the bamboo slip on the table.

"The two families are not a small misunderstanding." Jiang Wan smiled. Without any implicitness, how can the two countries be subtle?

Just as you should be as good as a blade, you can strive for a short time.

"When I found that merchant ships could sail directly in Liaodong, I was indeed greedy in Jiangdong. So I seized ten merchant ships. Not only were there five sea boats, but also the entourages returned them together." Lu Su didn't have any embarrassment on his face and said calmly.

"Just five ships?" Jiang Wan said with a constant expression.

In fact, Jiang Wan had already guessed that the other five merchant ships might have been sent by Jiangdong to search for another fifty merchant ships overseas.

"After General Jiang Qin seized the merchant ship that day, he heard that there were still fifty merchant ships overseas. He was greedy for a moment and then raised his troops to go overseas. As a result, he never returned. I was afraid that he would encounter storms." Speaking of this, Lu Su's face was a little heavy, he paused, and said, "Wu Hou also knew that the five warships had suffered a lot, so I came to Jiangxia this time, and there were twenty shipwrights and their families. I hope it could make up for it."

Lu Su said it sincerely.

I have a firm attitude and admit my failure. I will give you the seized merchant ship, and I will make up for the lost merchant ship. I don’t plan to ask for the losses caused by Gan Ning this time.

This can be seen from the fact that Lu Su doesn't mention Xu Sheng at all.

Just fighting these things, I wanted Liu Feng to stop the army, but there were fewer ones.

Jiang Qin would never return? Jiang Wan was a little surprised by the news of Lu Su, but then he remembered that Liu Feng had power on the sea and there were tens of thousands of people.

Then I felt relieved.

What's more, the Jiangxia navy had been rampant on the sea for several months, but the Jiangdong navy had just begun to leave the sea. It was common for the two armies to be wiped out in one battle and Jiang Qin's entire army was wiped out.

Jiang Wan's heart arose some joy.

Jiang Qin is a general, and his existence can resist Jiang Xia's expansion to a certain extent. Now that Jiang Qin has gone, it can be said that it has increased Jiang Xia's power to invade Jiangdong in disguise.

"Haha, I will accept this gift list on behalf of the general. But this matter must be decided by the general. But." Jiang Wan smiled slightly, and naturally he would not let Lu Su pass the test like this.

After hearing Jiang Wan's words, Lu Su's heart jumped and he immediately smiled: "I know that these are not enough to make up for Jiangdong's faults. I have another matter to ask Gong Yan to tell the general."

Lu Su just saw that Jiang Wan was called the prefect of Jiangxia. It was inappropriate to call Liu Feng Liu Jiangxia, so Jiang Wan called Liu Feng General.
