The sound of oars is a gurgling stream, and the boat is flowing up against the song of Du Sanniang. The trees on both sides are shaded by green trees and blooming flowers, which complement the clear water, making them look very beautiful.

Du Sanniang's singing and dancing attracted many audiences. Pedestrians from both sides of the Taiwan Strait stopped to watch. Some listened calmly, and some responded softly. The boat ladies on other cruise ships consciously stopped performing, allowing guests to appreciate Du Sanniang's unique skills with peace of mind. There was only one boat ladder who was not willing to be outdone. When Du Sanniang's song ended, he immediately plucked the strings and sang a song of Chu. Although it was not as exquisite as Du Sanniang, it was still worth listening.

Many people saw Zhang Hong and bowed to him, but no one came to disturb him. However, when a cruise ship passed by, someone handed over a shallow plate and asked Zhang Hong to taste his own snacks. Zhang Hong did not refuse, and took it and placed it on the table. After a while, the table was full.

Zhang Hong frequently gave the gifts, smiling and having no time to eat, but Chen Lin was full of food. It was not because he was greedy, but these dim sums had their own characteristics and had many varieties. They tasted them all, and they were unknowingly supported them.

"Is the Qinhuai River so lively every day?"

Zhang Hong smiled and said, "What's the fun? It's the fun at night. If Kong Zhang is interested, he can come back to visit again in the evening to ensure you are happy." He looked at Chen Lin's clothes and said to the old woman who was rocking the boat: "Please take a walk and stop in Yishi City. I will buy two clothes for this friend from Jizhou to let him see the beauty of our Wu Kingdom."

The old woman responded with a smile and turned the bow of the boat.

Chen Lin was happy, but pretended to refuse. Zhang Hong said calmly: "Kong Zhang came from afar, don't you want to see Jianye's people's livelihood?"

"Uh..." Chen Lin was embarrassed by Zhang Hong's thoughts, so she had to talk to him. "Since Brother Zigang's tone, the people of Jianye are not ordinary wealthy. I'm afraid I can't afford it, so I'd better wear the desk cloth."

"Did you buy this clothes in Jizhou?"

"yes."

"How much does it cost?"

"It's not too expensive, it's only seven or eight hundred yuan, but it's hard to buy."

"Then you can buy more and bring them back. This cloth is only about 300 yuan in Jianye, and the good one is only 500 yuan. Seven or eight hundred yuan is the best, but it is not easy to buy, so you have to book it."

Chen Lin was surprised. "So cheap?"

"It's not that Jianye's cloth is cheap, but that Jizhou's cloth has been sold and increased by Yanzhou merchants, and the price is inflated. If you buy it in Yanzhou, this kind of cloth will probably be over 400. Of course that's the past, now, I guess they won't take it easily even if they have the goods."

Chen Lin deeply felt the same. Although he did not ask about the price of the cloth, he knew that the Yanzhou family made a lot of money from the re-sale trade. The goods in Yuzhou fattened their appetite. Now that Cao Ang left Yanzhou, Sun Ce cut off the supply of Yanzhou. Not only did Jizhou find it difficult to obtain the goods in Yuzhou, but the people of Yanzhou also lost their wealth, and complained a lot about this. In order to avoid further stimulating these Yanzhou families, Yuan Tan even had to be careful in collecting grain.

Chen Lin immediately asked about the whereabouts of these Yuzhou products. Yuzhou ships to Yanzhou every year, and there are a lot of goods in Jizhou. Now that communication is cut off, there must be new places to go. You can't keep them in your hands or reduce the price.

Zhang Hong didn't hide it from him. Most of the remaining materials went to Liaodong by sea, and some of them went to Jizhou, mainly in northern Jizhou. In short, they did not give Yanzhou families a chance to get out of it. Chen Lin understood what Zhang Hong meant. This was a trap. From the beginning, it was intentional, and it was waiting for this day. Yuan Tan entered Yanzhou, all in Sun Ce's plan. It was not that easy for him to retreat now. As for negotiations and delaying time, Sun Ce didn't care at all.

"Whose idea is this?" Chen Lin was a little angry.

"I can't remember it." Zhang Hong thought for a while, and then said: "It should be a military plan proposal. I forgot who it is."

Chen Lin was speechless. The idea of ​​a military strategist that Zhang Hong could not even remember his name made Yuan Tan a dilemma. If Ju Su and Guo Tu knew about it, what would they think? It seems that Yuan Tan was not unfair to end up today. No matter how smart Ju Su, Guo Tu and others were, they were just a group of people. Yuan Tan also wanted to form a military strategist, but it had never been built. The people of Jizhou were too xenophobic. However, the number of local scholars in Jizhou was not only small, but the overall level was not as good as that of the Central Plains. There were very few people competent for military strategist. If they really had this ability, they wanted to lead the army and fight. Who would be willing to surrender to the military strategist?

Ju Su's son Ju Hu is the most typical example. Cui Yan and Cui Lin's brothers are similar, either the prefecture and county officials or the county magistrate.

Chen Lin became more and more frustrated as she thought about it, and she didn't even want to discuss this issue with Zhang Hong. He felt that Yuan Shao was too rigid at the beginning and insisted on sticking to the three mutual laws. He refused to directly master Yuzhou and gave him the most talented Yuzhou to Sun Ce for vain. Sun Ce did not have such concerns. He was from Yangzhou, so he occupied Yangzhou. In order to facilitate the mastery, even the governor of Yangzhou was vacant for a long time.

Before he knew it, the cruise ship leaned against the shore. Zhang Hong called Chen Lin, and Chen Lin came to his senses and stood up to follow Zhang Hong onto the shore. There was a big city in front of him, with no common city walls, only a lined market, one after another, with signs of competing for beauty. The guests entering and leaving were talking and laughing, sweat, and powdery smells mixed together, mixed with the fragrance of wine and rice dumplings, reminding Chen Lin that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming.

As soon as they stood on the shore, the two children came over and each stuffed a piece of colorful paper and said crisply: "Welcome to the South China Sea cloth tour, Western Regions fine products, Tianzhu white stack, fair price and high quality..."

"Tianfu cloth store, top-quality Shu brocade, good quality and low price, buy four and get one free..."

Chen Lin had never seen such a situation before. When she looked at the paper in her hand, she was at a loss. When the two children saw each other, they looked at each other, stuck out their tongues, said something, and ran away with a smile.

"What did they say?" Chen Lin was puzzled.

"They said you are a foreigner." Zhang Hong smiled and said, "Let's go, the people who send flyers here and advertise are all for foreigners' businesses. There is no need for real good things at all. There is no time to supply them in normal business. Today, time is tight, so I will take you to a house that supplies goods to the palace all year round and buy two ready-made clothes for emergency purposes. If you have time to visit by yourself, compare the stores and buy a large amount, the merchant can also deliver goods. You just need to give an address and arrange someone to pick up the goods at that time."

Chen Lin followed Zhang Hong into the cloth market, and all kinds of fabrics came to his face, including Shu brocade in Yizhou, ice silk in Jingxiang, silk weaving of Xiangben, and white stacked cloth in Tianzhu. He was dazzling and dazzled. He even saw the legendary fire-washing cloth. There are many varieties of cloth, and the people selling cloth are eye-opening. Not only locals, but also many barbarians, some have blonde hair and blue eyes, some have white skin as snow, and some are as black as a ball of charcoal. Only see the whites of eyes, but they have excellent figures and black skin shines like silk.

"Is this... this person?"

"Kunlun slave, from Linyi, south of the sun." Zhang Hong was not surprised and led Chen Lin straight into the sky. Chen Lin couldn't help but look back. The Kunlun slave felt Chen Lin's eyes, turned his head, grinned at Chen Lin, revealing a white and neat teeth. Chen Lin was shocked and thought to himself, I don't know if the Kunlun slave's teeth will glow. If I could glow, I would have such a Kunlun slave around me, so I wouldn't have to light the lights when I got up at night, just call her.

Gan Ning held the hem of the clothes in one hand and the bell on the knife ring in the other hand. He quickly walked to the hall, came to Sun Ce, and bowed to him.

"The Marquis of Guannei, the governor of the Navy, Ning, pay homage to the king."

Sun Ce, who was reading the official document, raised his head, looked at Gan Ning, and pointed to the seat next to him. "Sit."

"Thank you," Gan Ning turned around and sat down, stretched his neck to look at the official document in Sun Ce's hand. "Is the king looking at the plan for the Qingzhou battle?"

"It's Zhuge Liang's report." Sun Ce closed the official document, held the desk with both hands, tapped his fingers twice, and turned to look at Gan Ning with an awkward expression. "Xingba, do you remember what I told you?"

"Remember, remember." Gan Ning nodded repeatedly, but did not distinguish. "This matter was because my minister was wrong. Thanks to Zhuge Liang's answer to the minister's doubts, he did not make a big mistake. The king, I have apologized to Li Wenda, Lou Zibo and others, and even invited them to drink wine. They all forgive me. King, I promise not to do it again next time."

Sun Ce snorted, but said nothing. He knew that Zhuge Liang could be a human being, and even a thorn like Guan Yu could settle, let alone Gan Ning. Gan Ning was easy to kill, but he still knew the importance of the matter. After that impulse passed, he knew when to do it. He went to Qingzhou and cut off Yuan Tan's backside with the fighter plane in front of him. Not to mention letting him admit his mistake, it would be fine to let him accept the punishment, as long as it did not affect his battle.

However, this guy is also a person who remembers to eat but not to beat him. admitting his mistake does not mean he will correct him. Next time he gets angry, he will still kill him. Such generals with their own mad dog attributes cannot stay at home in the future, so they can only be released and bite people.

"Tell me, how to fight this battle? Did Zhuge Liang give you any advice before you come?"

"No, he said nothing, I didn't even see him." Gan Ning felt a little regretful. "I originally wanted to ask him, but he was too busy and went back to Lingling, saying that I wanted to prepare food and grass for the Zhou governor and not delay."

Sun Ce nodded and said nothing. It seemed that Zhuge Liang had understood his intention and took the initiative to keep a distance from the generals in the army. He took a volume of documents and handed them to Gan Ning, asking Gan Ning to take a look first. This is a newly compiled chart by Bu Zhi and others. Some details were added on it, and there were also some hydrology of the Yellow River water system. Gan Ning entered the Yellow River battle this time, and these hydrology were very important. During the Battle of Guandu, it was because he was not familiar with the hydrology of the Yellow River, and Gan Ning could not cut off Yuan Shao's retreat. He could not make the same mistake again this time. After the Battle of Guandu, Bu Zhi was collecting relevant information, which is now basically completed.

"Xingba, what do you think of Buzishan?"

While reading the information, Gan Ning said, "It's very good, knowledgeable, down-to-earth, able to endure hardships, and will lead troops."

"How about let him be your military?"

Gan Ning was stunned and raised his head. "King, where is Mi Fang, don't he follow me to fight?"
