I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Yang Xixuan showed a look of complacency on his face. It is strange to say that he seldom reveals his inner thoughts in front of others. Only in front of Guan Yi, he can't help but think about it, so he said without restraint: "Indeed there are many There are quite a few workshops, you will stay for a few days this time, and you can visit them if you have time."

Guan Yi, "."

This is showing off, showing off properly, so angry!

Zhou Yu held the trunk of the rubber tree in his hands and did not let go. After hugging for a while, his hands were cold, and then he reluctantly put the rubber tree on the table, "Next time, please bring back some live saplings from the head of Guan Yi."

Guan Yi didn't want to bring back live saplings. Bringing them back meant they would be planted on a large scale. Obviously, Mr. Zhou needed rubber, and he wanted to start his own business.

It's a pity that he was dependent on Yang Xixuan's goods, and he couldn't refuse to refuse. He suppressed the thoughts in his heart and said with a smile on his face: "Okay, I must bring back more saplings to my husband, but the death of the saplings on the way back has nothing to do with me."

He prayed in his heart that Ruizhou was not suitable for planting!

Zhou Yu nodded, "I can trust Master Guan."

Guan Yi didn't want to do tricks either, he didn't think his tricks could hide the two gentlemen, you know, he kept the new code edited by Ruizhou by his bedside, from the code it could be seen that the two gentlemen had serious intentions. It's so delicate, so it's better to be honest.

Yang Xixuan asked curiously, "Did Master Guan gain anything else this time?"

Guan Yi's face stiffened, "The hull is damaged, and General Yang also knows that all of my subordinates are gangsters. Except for a few captured shipwrights, no one knows how to repair ships, so I asked the general to help repair them."

Yang Xixuan became more energetic, "It seems that Master Guan has encountered a lot of siege and interception."

Guan Yi didn't want to hide the hardships along the way, so he happened to let Yang Xixuan know of his narrow escape, "Well, the foreigner merchant ships hate me to the bone. It is a shame to them that I robbed the merchant ship. The merchants are afraid of me and want to kill me. To five tackles."

The most dangerous one almost sank the ship. Fortunately, the cannons that were robbed were powerful, but there were also gains. Two more cannons were confiscated, but the only pity was that there were not many shells.

Yang Xixuan sighed, Guan Yi's luck was indeed good, his eyes were deep, "Can the cannon of the head of Guan still be used?"

Guan Yi rolled his eyes in his heart. There are many cannons, but not many shells. He has made up his mind about this trip. First, he will go to the harbor to stay on a foreigner merchant ship, and when he returns, he will be a foreigner pretending to be a pirate.

Yang Xi has already read the ledger, and the ledger given by Guan Yi is fine, "Maritime merchants are rich, I have seen the Lilan in it, I remember someone said that if more than double the profit, they dare to trample on all laws in the world, no wonder smuggling Repeatedly prohibited!"

Yang Xixuan took the account book to check, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes even though he was calm, this is more than double Lilan.

Guan Yi wrote down Mr. Yang's words, "I've been taught."

Yang Xixuan is in a good mood because of Lilan, God knows how heavy his burden is, he has to face a huge expenditure every day when he opens his eyes, he will use the army next year, let alone cut down on the soldiers' food, in order to ensure the nutrition of the training, he has asked When fishermen buy seafood, they will also send ships to salvage the seafood.

Ruizhou can't support war with war. According to my brother-in-law, Ruizhou is in a period of developing strength, which means that there is only investment but no return.

Yang Xixuan laughed, "Success, as long as you bid, I will send someone to repair the boat for you."

After a pause, he said, "If Master Guan is willing to pay for repairs, I can ask the craftsman to teach your people how to repair ships."

"I am willing to pay Shuxiu money, thank you General Yang."

Yang Xixuan hummed, he knew that sooner or later Guan Yi would learn how to repair the ship, so it would be better to be more generous than to stop him, "I'm ashamed to say, I'm really short of money, I hope Guan will understand."

Guan Yi is getting jealous again, he doesn't know how many soldiers Yang Xixuan has increased, he only knows that Yang Xixuan is getting stronger and stronger.

Yang Xixuan rolled his eyes, and didn't give up on the cannon, "Let's continue talking about the cannon, do we have enough cannonballs for the master?"

Guan Yi sneered, "If I can't say enough, General Yang has a solution?"

Yang Xixuan picked up the fruit drink and took a sip of the sweetness, "What do I say?"

My sister and brother-in-law research Hekou’s old-fashioned cannons. Imitation can be imitated, but it’s not very meaningful. The captured ones are enough for use. Instead, they can use the old-fashioned cannons as prototypes to transform them into cannons that people can carry.

Instead of imitating the old-fashioned artillery of Hekou, it is better to find a way to get a foreigner's cannon. Robbing foreigners is one way. Business understanding is still too superficial.

There are many good things in the hands of foreign merchants, but it is not easy to get good things from foreign merchants.

Now he has another way, which can be exchanged from Guan Yi.

Guan Yi was silent for a moment, he knew that Yang Xixuan would not lie to him, he was surprised that Yang Xixuan could make shells, and frowned again, "General Yang needs to know that there are not many cannons on foreign ships, and most of them are used for deterrence."

If every ship had cannons, he would snatch them all at any cost. Unfortunately, he just thought about it. Even mainland maritime merchants set off with a fleet, equipped with old-fashioned cannons.

The Maritime Chamber pays protection fees to foreigners, and foreigners never sell cannons to mainland maritime merchants for protection fees and to be able to snatch merchant ships.

Therefore, Guan Yi knew how valuable the cannon in his hand was, and he had to admit that he was very lucky to be able to snatch it successfully.

The hall fell silent for a while, Yang Xixuan did not reply, and Yang Xi and his wife also made eye contact quietly.

Until the children's voices came from outside the house, Yang Xi saw that the clock was ringing, and it had been an hour. Yang Xi stood up, "I'll go out and have a look."

Zhou Yu said, "I'll go and have a look too."

After sitting for a long time, he wanted to go out and walk around.

Yang Xixuan stretched his waist, "It's getting late, and I want a cannon. I want the master to understand. Foreigners know that you have a cannon. It will be even more difficult for you to capture it. A cannon without shells is just a decoration. I won't do it today." The hospitality is in charge."

Guan Yi lowered his eyes. On the return journey, the foreigner saw that he could not hold the boat and blew up the shells and cannons together, "Then Guan will take his leave first."

Outside the yard, Yang Xi was staring at the sledge, while Ziheng was playing with the two little ones on the sledge.

The first heavy snow has stayed, and the temperature in Ruizhou is still below zero. The children have more outdoor activities in the north.

Zilu was very happy, he laughed loudly, "Hurry up, hurry up."

Ziheng held a younger brother in one hand, his little face was flushed with cold, and there was a smile on his face, obviously having a good time playing.

Yang Xi hugged the stove in his hand tightly, "Ziheng has always been like a grown-up, I almost forgot that he is not yet ten years old."

Listening to the children's laughter, Zhou Yu was relieved of any troubles, "Yes, this child's calmness makes people feel distressed."
