My husband Zhuge Kongming

Of course, the State Shepherd's Mansion will not be short of money.

Over the past few years, with the promotion of winter wheat and summer rice and the prosperity of commerce, coupled with Huang Yueying's share to Liu Biao's family, the state capital of Jingzhou was also the wealthiest existence in the entire Han Dynasty.

But in order for the State Shepherd's Mansion to be willing to pay, of course some conditions are required.

For example, if people in the state capital see the profitability of this steamship, then she doesn't need to promote it at all.

Interests will become the best promoters. 
Therefore, after Cai Mao said this, Huang Yueying felt relieved.

"Actually, the steamships that are going to be provided to the state capital navy are different from ordinary ones."

Huang Yueying then started a new round of price increases.

"Oh?" Cai Mao was quite curious, but after thinking about it in his heart, it is true...the steamships provided to the army are more different.

"Ordinary steamships use lighter and thinner wooden boards for the outer hull." Huang Yueying explained, "But if it is provided for the navy, the wooden boards will be thicker, and...the hull will be bigger."

"Bigger?" Cai Mao's eyes lit up.

After experiencing a sea voyage once, most people's thoughts are... It would be great if the ship was bigger!
Now, with such an opportunity, Cai Mao is of course excited.

"Yes, so...the price will be higher." Huang Yueying nodded.

Cai Mao nodded thoughtfully.

From his understanding, Huang Yueying really wanted to provide ships to the Jingzhou navy, and...it must have had a new idea after this voyage.

These ideas are more beneficial to the Jingzhou navy.

"Since that's the case, what does Ah Chu want Uncle to do?"

"I don't need Uncle to do too much, I just need Uncle to control the navy in his hands."

"Okay." Cai Mao understood.

Huang Yueying was about to prepare for the next thing.

Liu Biao's situation can't last for a few more years, Liu Cong and Liu Qi, no matter who is in power, Cai's wants to be stable...he has to hold all kinds of power in his hands, so Liu can't move them.

As far as he is concerned, Liu Qi and Liu Xiu are superior, and the relationship with him is not close. In the end, he will definitely attack the Cai family under the instigation of others. There have been too many such situations in history.

If Liu Cong came to power, Liu Cong would have to rely on their Cai family as relatives, and their Cai family's position would be very stable.

……

After leaving Cai Mao's home, Huang Yueying visited Kuai Yue again.

Kuai Yue has had a lot of leisure recently, because...he has indeed left all the trivial matters to Liu Cong.

Of course, he also explained to the people below that if the son's reply is unreasonable, he can directly bring it to his house for re-negotiation, and he will inform Liu Cong how to deal with the matter afterwards.

Indeed, he can't guarantee that he is right, but if Liu Cong's reply is unwilling to implement even the officials below, then what's the use?
Seeing Huang Yueying, Kuai Yue was in a good mood, "Why is Ah Chu here?"

"I just went to my uncle's house." Huang Yueying smiled, "I just happened to come to see my uncle right now."

Kuai Yue then also laughed, "Okay, it just so happens that it's time for supper, Ah Chu stays for some?"

"Okay." Huang Yueying naturally did not refuse.

The Kuai family is not directly related to her by marriage. In terms of relationship, she is not as close as she is to the Cai family.

But Kuai Yue's ambition, Kuai Liang's support for Gu, and the interests of the Kuai family... all made Huang Yueying very convinced that the Kuai family was the one who would support her the most compared to the Cai family.

"Ah Chu is here because of the steamship, right?"

"Yes." Huang Yueying nodded, "It just so happens that the sea voyage has ended for a few days, and the news that should be spread has also been spread, and some performances of the steamship experiment have also been tested, and it is indeed possible to start equipping the navy. "

Kuai Yue also nodded, "Alright."

Huang Yueying also laughed, "I told Uncle that there is no need for Uncle to do anything about it, all you need to do is to manage the water army well so that it can form enough combat power."

Kuai Yue is smarter than Cai Mao, knowing that she went to Cai Mao's place first, plus what she said just now...the other party can easily understand her meaning.

"Since Ah Chu has already made up his mind, uncle will not stop him." Kuai Yue smiled helplessly, "No matter what Ah Chu chooses, the Kuai family will stand with Ah Chu."

"But if one day, it will harm Kuai's interests?" Huang Yueying also laughed.

Kuai Yue laughed, "Quai's interests? Isn't it all related to Ah Chu that Kuai's current interests are included in the account?"

The implication is that he Kuai Yue believes in Huang Yueying.

Huang Yueying naturally understood Kuai Yue's meaning, so she nodded, "Then Ah Chu has a measure in mind."

The situation here in Xiangyang is tense, if one is not careful... Liu Biao may have been a few years earlier than in history, and of course she has to communicate with the Kuai family and the Cai family in advance.

"The other side of Yizhou..." Kuai Yue thought about his words, "Ah Chu wants General Guan Er to guard him?"

"Well, General Guan is excellent at leading troops. With him in charge, I can rest assured."

"I heard that Ah Chu is over there...is he going to implement the dictation system?" Kuai Yue hesitated for a while, but still asked.

"That's right." Huang Yueying nodded, "The system of dictation of land has already been tested in Chu'an and Ye County. The labor force of the people is obviously much stronger, and...the local economy develops more stably and rapidly."

"Then those aristocratic families in Yizhou..."

"Ah Chu will compensate them in another way."

"Another way?"

"Yes, for example, the opportunity to cooperate with me, Chu An."

Kuai Yue immediately understood that Huang Yueying wanted to exchange the opportunity of doing business for the land of the Yizhou aristocratic family... If he refused to accept it, he might be liquidated by Guan Yu.

He also knows that Huang Yueying's method is for the common people, but... there are some things that are not easy to grab.

The aristocratic family regards the land as the foundation of the family.

Guan Yu wants to implement the system of dictation of land over there, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of resistance.

Of course, what he is more worried about is... Jingzhou will also implement this system at that time.

If this system is implemented in Jingzhou, the resistance will only be greater, and when the various aristocratic families rebound... it will be very troublesome.

"It's just that, scholars, farmers, businessmen... Although the commercial interests are great, but the status is not high..."

"Scholar, farmer, businessman," Huang Yueying smiled, "Actually, whether it's a scholar, a farmer, a worker, or a businessman, they all have two shoulders and one head..."

Kuai Yue sighed inwardly, he understood what Huang Yueying meant.

Since ancient times, the status of merchants has been low because the superiors feel that merchants are not engaged in production, but are grabbing huge profits. Too many merchants are not conducive to national stability.

And Huang Yueying plans to improve the status of the businessman in the future, so there must be some unstable factors.

But he also understands that before that, with force in hand, any instability... will be suppressed.

"Ah Chu is already making arrangements, uncle don't need to worry too much."

"Okay." Kuai Yue nodded in response.

Coincidentally, the dinner was brought up by the attendant, and the two of them discussed some trivial matters while eating.

It wasn't until nightfall that Huang Yueying came out from Kuai's house and returned to her own house.

Now, she has begun to plan the affairs after Liu Biao's death. At present, it seems that Kuai Yue really knows her intentions, while Cai Mao believes in her based on blood relationship and interest relationship.

Tomorrow, she will visit several other aristocratic families in Jingzhou. In the hands of these aristocratic families, there are many children who take up positions of real power in Jingzhou. If you gather this group of people... then she can really not worry about the upcoming changes in Jingzhou.

For today's portion, ask for all kinds.

Make up flights, start at 5:8 in the morning, fly at 11:12, return to Shanghai at [-]:[-], and arrive home at [-]:[-].

Probably because I was a little too tired during this time, and I didn't have a good rest. I threw up twice on the plane.

So today, this chapter is still for the time being, and when the status of the trail recovers a bit, it should be supplemented.

Still asking for all kinds.
