Chapter 565: The Gift of the State of Chu
There was a happy laugh of Xiaowen Xiaowu outside the hall, mixed with Qin Feng's hearty laughter, and Ma Xiangdong, who was talking to Min Ruoxi, immediately stood up and turned to look outside the hall. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Qin Feng held a child in one hand, strode into the hall, put the two children down, turned his head and looked at Ma Xiangdong with blazing eyes, the two little guys said well, he was indeed a white fat man, his appearance was really similar to Ma Xiangnan, but his temperament was completely different.
"Ma Xiangdong has seen General Qin!" Ma Xiangdong clenched his fists with both hands and shook deeply.
"No need to be polite, please sit down." Qin Feng said lightly, walked to Min Ruoxi's side, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Xiaowen Xiaowu said that you are in tears. ”
Hearing Qin Feng's question, Min Ruoxi's eyes turned red again, and he said in a low voice: "Ma Xiang said that my mother's body is not as good as day by day, since the death of my father, my mother's health is not very good, and now, out of ten days, six or seven days are on the sickbed." ”
There was an incomparably strong feeling of longing in his words, and of course Qin Feng could hear it.
Qin Feng nodded: "If you are really worried, I will let Shu Chang go to the capital and let him go to your mother's body to take care of it." ”
Min Ruoxi glanced up at Qin Feng with some resentment, until now, Qin Feng was still unwilling to call his mother a mother-in-law. "Shu Chang is so busy now, can he go?"
"Hurry up, come and go, it's only two or three months, I can tell Cao Hui, let Shu Chang borrow Qi country, so that the distance will be shortened a lot. What do you think? Qin Feng gently held Min Ruoxi's hand: "I know you miss her very much, and she must miss you and Xiaowen Xiaowu very much, but you can't go to the capital." ”
Min Ruoxi nodded, of course she knew that she and Xiaowen Xiaowu were categorically unable to go to the capital, and if they went there, they were afraid that they would never come back.
"That's fine, Shu Chang's medical skills are clear, and I can rest assured that he will take care of his mother."
"Thank you!" Qin Feng gently squeezed Min Ruoxi's hand, then turned around, sat down beside Min Ruoxi, and looked at Ma Xiangdong.
"Ma Xiang has come all the way and worked hard." He's not salty, he's not light.
"Don't dare, General Qin defeated the Wu clan and replaced him in four years, Your Majesty and Ma are all admired!" Ma Xiangdong smiled, "The Wu clan has lost the hearts of the people in the past few years, and the general can replace him, whether it is our Great Chu or the Qin State, they are all excited!" ”
"I've made it, so what's there to be excited about." Qin Feng looked at him coldly, "Shouldn't Min Ruoying be afraid?" He is a noble man who forgets things, and my memory is very good. ”
Ma Xiangdong was stunned, he didn't expect Qin Feng to be so unkind, he actually shook out the old things in front of Princess Zhaohua, and saw Princess Zhaohua lower his head, he took a deep breath, stood up, and took a deep look at Qin Feng.
"What are you doing here?" Qin Feng asked.
"His Majesty the Emperor of Great Chu, naturally he also knows this knot in General Qin's heart, and before he comes, he specially asked me to say sorry to General Qin!" Ma Xiangdong said, "I am following the order of His Majesty the Emperor to apologize to General Qin." ”
"It's a pity, although I saw it, but in Anyang City, more than a thousand of my brothers who died can no longer see it." Qin Feng sneered.
"General Qin, our Majesty has one more word." Ma Xiangdong said, "I don't know if the general wants to hear it." ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!"
"Our Majesty said that he apologized to you, but if time were turned back, His Majesty would do the same." Ma Xiangdong raised his head and said: "In the past, the general was just a small captain of the death battalion, and he couldn't understand our majesty's ambitions and intentions, but now the general is also the lord of a country, and in the past few years, he must have learned a lot and seen a lot, and our majesty said that you must be able to understand his thoughts at that time." ”
Qin Feng raised his head and laughed: "Okay, this is the Min Ruoying I imagined." What is the use of apologizing? When he said this, did he think that I had become the same person as him? ”
"There is no one who succeeds who does not experience this." Ma Xiangdong looked at Qin Feng without fear: "There are no outsiders here, so I'll say it bluntly, General Qin, haven't you done conspiracy, darkness, and unscrupulous means to achieve your goals?" ”
"Done!" Qin Feng looked at Ma Xiangdong calmly, "But I will never raise a butcher's knife to my relatives, brothers, and subordinates, let alone betray and frame them." My sword has always been aimed only at the enemy. The eldest husband stands in the world, does something, and does nothing. This is my principle of being a man, and when you go back, you can say this sentence to Min Ruoying. Therefore, don't think that I am the same kind of person as him, but we gather like him, and people are divided into groups, and he and I will always be enemies, not fellow travelers. ”
Ma Xiangdong looked at Qin Feng in a daze, and finally nodded.
"Okay, don't talk about these things, Ma Xiang, you're here to talk about business, what are you doing with Qin Feng doing this?" Min Ruoxi stared at Ma Xiangdong with some annoyance, feeling that this Zuo Xiang was simply inexplicable, knowing that this was Qin Feng's heart disease, he actually provoked trouble in front of him, isn't this asking for trouble, like Cheng Wuben, he is much smarter, only talking about cooperation and two benefits, and not involving anything else at all.
Qin Feng smiled and looked at Ma Xiangdong: "Ma Xiang, sit down and talk, you also know that Li Zhi of Qin State and Cao Hui of Qi State are now in Yuejing City, you Da Chu, what did you bring for me?" ”
"General Qin, Ma has come all the way, in addition to bringing the friendship of the Chu State, of course, there are other things." A smile resurfaced on Ma Xiangdong's face, "This time, in addition to the expensive gifts, I also brought thousands of master craftsmen. And we're sure it's what you need. ”
"Master?" Qin Feng frowned slightly, and he didn't think clearly about the other party's intentions for a while.
Ma Xiangnan wrote a recital to go back, of course, in the recital, he focused on his current predicament, but our Great Chu is too far away from the Yue country, and if we want to solve these problems, we are powerless to return to the sky for a while. However, His Majesty was very bright, and after a few days of hard thinking, he finally came up with a solution. Ma Xiangdong talked eloquently, and without comment, pointed out that Chu people like Ma Xiangnan were working for Qin Feng.
"What did he come up with?" Qin Feng instinctively felt that there must be something wrong here.
"These masters are the most outstanding shipbuilders in our Dachu. The naval warships of our Great Chu rampant in the world were built by them. Ma Xiangdong smiled and said, "Baoqing Port is now quite large-scale, and there is also a ready-made shipyard there, and with these craftsmen, a shipyard can be built there soon." Yue is not short of shipbuilding materials, as long as the general is willing, it will not take a few years, you can build a boat division, at that time, with the boat division, you can send the products of Yue to Vietnam on a large scale for sale, the business contacts between the two sides, will be because of the existence of these boat divisions, and build a lush sea channel, the two sides communicate with each other. The general came from the Chu State, and when he knew that the Chu State was rich, even if it was an ordinary person, the purchasing power was extremely strong, as long as this sea passage was completed, it would inevitably make Dayue's financial resources soon reach a new level. ”
Hearing this, Qin Feng finally understood Min Ruoying's intentions, if he wanted to open up the sea passage, he must have a powerful boat division, and once this boat division is formed, sailing to the Chu State, it will inevitably pass through the sea area controlled by the Qi people, and a conflict between the two sides will be inevitable.
He laughed loudly: "Good idea, good idea, it's really Min Ruoying's approach, but I like it very much, I accepted these masters, but Ma Xiang, in order to let these craftsmen take root here with peace of mind, please send their families together?" ”
"What's this? Most of their families are difficult to leave their homeland, and I am afraid it will be difficult for them to leave their homeland. The horse pushed eastward.
Qin Feng smiled, "If that's the case, then I don't dare to accept it, people are here with me, but my heart is not there, how dare I use the ship they built with confidence?" Shipbuilding, but not a short time can do a good thing, not to mention anything else, just the shipbuilding material is not a short time can be prepared, Ma Xiang, don't bully me I don't understand the ship, I still understand the basic truth. It is true that there is no shortage of timber for shipbuilding in Vietnam, but to turn these timbers into good ship materials, this time alone, I am afraid that it will take several years, you don't want these craftsmen to get some unqualified materials for me to build ships, sail on the sea for a year or two, and then fall apart, right? ”
Ma Xiangdong looked at the other party awkwardly, he really didn't expect that Qin Feng actually understood the Tao here, he thought that Qin Feng, who had been in the western part of Chu State, didn't understand these techniques of shipbuilding at all, but he obviously knew.
"Of course not, General, after I go back, I will tell Your Majesty to mobilize the families of those craftsmen as much as possible to come to Yueguo. They and their families can be regarded as His Majesty's dowry to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the general thinks this is good? Ma Xiangdong made up his mind in an instant.
Qin Feng laughed and turned his head to look at Min Ruoxi, "Xi'er, I married you with this golden branch and jade leaf, but I followed the great light, Ma Xiang, thank you to my eldest brother." I know what you want to get, let's put it this way, our Taiping army will establish a new dynasty, we have our own policy of nation-building, we also have our own policy of diplomacy, all our actions, will be based on the interests of our country as the only standard, so to speak, I don't know if you are satisfied? ”
Ma Xiangdong let out a long breath: "With the general's promise, I think Your Majesty will be very happy, no matter what, we are all in-laws!" Blood is thicker than water, and you can't get close to each other, general, don't you say? ”
"Of course we talk about feelings, I'm afraid that my eldest brother won't talk about it!" Qin Feng said lightly. (To be continued.) )
