My husband Zhuge Kongming

Cao Pi saw Sun Quan's expression and listened to his words. Wasn't he completely helpless?It means there is a way.

However, this method is obviously not easy to obtain, and he needs to pay a price.

He knew that in order to obtain the method of making iron, a price must be paid.

It's just that he doesn't know whether the price is high or low, so he plans to explore the situation first.

"Please also ask Sun Yangzhou to speak clearly."

Sun Quan looked at the attendant behind Cao Pi again. The latter understood and directly ordered the attendant who was protecting him to retreat.

Sun Quan then said, "This iron-making method has been practiced in Chu'an for seven or eight years, and the number of craftsmen from generation to generation is even greater. In addition to my nephew's status, the queen has not set any restrictions on him."

Cao Pi narrowed his eyes. Didn't that female monarch set limits on Sun Shao?Does it mean complete trust?Or do you not care at all?
This iron-making method should be a core secret everywhere, and it is impossible not to care about it.

So, the other party deliberately released it?
It's also possible that the other party already has a crushing iron-making method, just like a steamship. There will be a better one, so you don't care?
"Sun Yangzhou means that Sun Shao knows the secret?"

"Yes."

"Has he written a letter?"

Sun Quan shook his head, "How can such a secret method be easily put on a piece of paper?"

Cao Pi nodded, "What does Sun Yangzhou want?"

"I know that your Majesty has an ambush in Jingzhou."

Cao Pi nodded, "Not bad."

"We, Jiangdong, are currently weak, and if we use Jiangdong, we are afraid of causing trouble, which will be detrimental to Shaoer's development." Sun Quan said again.

Cao Pi raised his eyebrows. He wanted to use their spies to lurk in Jingzhou, but if they could really obtain the iron-smelting method, it wouldn't be impossible to use it. "Pi will report this to my father, so don't rush it."

After hearing this, Sun Quan looked at Cao Pi carefully.

Apart from having a bit of a bad mouth, Cao Pi is quite safe in his work. If he can continue to do so, it is very likely that he will inherit Cao Cao's family business in the future.

"Alright."

Cao Pi also nodded again, "As for the Jingzhou army armor, I wonder if Sun Yangzhou can buy it from that trading firm?"

"Yes, but the price is higher." Sun Quan nodded.

"How much does a set of iron armor cost?"

"A set of iron armor with an iron spear or spear only costs [-] yuan. A better-made one will cost [-] yuan and more." Sun Quan thought for a while and doubled the price.

You can't, you won't make anything, right?
Cao Pi laughed and didn't get angry, "Is Sun Yangzhou bullying me because I don't know the price?"

Sun Quan shook his head, "Of course not. The purchase price of this armor is not high at that trading house, but the other party will limit the quantity I Jiangdong can buy."

Cao Pi looked at Sun Quan again, "Is that so?"

"So, I need to unite with some other aristocratic families to purchase these armors." Sun Quan explained, "I can buy them for Duke Cao at the original price, but that is not the case for those aristocratic families."

Cao Pi smiled lightly, "That won't double the price."

Sun Quan sighed, "Master, please forgive me. I, the Sun family, do not have close allies in Jiangdong."

Cao Pi was slightly stunned, it seemed that this was really the case, but he still shook his head, "It's not that Pi doesn't understand Sun Yangzhou, but that the price is too high. Even if I report back to my father, my father will not agree."

"Then I can only work hard for Mr. Cao. As for the result, I can't guarantee it."

Cao Pi nodded and said no more.

When they first met, he had already found out most of the information he wanted.

When it comes to business, how can everything be settled as soon as we meet?
When Sun Quan saw that Cao Pi had no desire to talk, he knew that was enough for the day, so he smiled and asked someone to arrange a place for Cao Pi, and then turned around and entered the back hall.

"Bo Yan, Gong Jin, what do you think?"

In the back hall, Lu Xun and Zhou Yu stopped playing chess and greeted Sun Quan. "This Duke Cao's 'eldest son' is not simple at all." Lu Xun said, "He was a little aggressive at the beginning, but in the second half he was extremely rational, and he always used Duke Cao to suppress the lord."

Sun Quan smiled mockingly, yes, anyway, anyone can beat him.

Zhou Yu agreed and spoke, "Most of what I say have hidden meanings."

Sun Quan sat down tiredly, "We also want to get the iron-smelting recipe, but we can't anger Jingzhou. We might be able to do it by using their hidden secrets, but what if Shaoer has an accident because of this?"

Zhou Yu said calmly, "That's her closed disciple."

During this time, he and Lu Su communicated frequently.

What Lu Su meant was that Chu An already had an improved method of making iron, and it turned out that this method could indeed be used to catch Cao Cao.

The improved iron-making method is to build a new generation of steam ships.

Therefore, the news released by Sun Quan is not wrong, and it was indeed released deliberately by Huang Yueying.

He didn't understand it at first, but he soon understood it.

Since there is a better way, why not reuse these old ones so as to take money out of Cao Cao's pocket?
In the meantime, they, Jiangdong, could also obtain some of the benefits and use them to develop themselves.

After that, he counterattacked Yangzhou, carried out reforms and eradicated the aristocratic family.

Zhou Yu can do what Cao Cao can do.

"What the governor means is that Mr. Shao will not be in danger because of this?" Lu Xun finally understood Zhou Yu's words.

"Yes." Zhou Yu nodded, "Even if he is discovered, that person will definitely forgive Shaoer."

Sun Quan was slightly stunned, yes, that was a closed disciple.

"Gong Jin is right. In that case, once Cao Pi agrees, we can start preparing for this matter."

"No." Zhou Yu agreed, "The price of soldiers and armor has already dropped. The general needs to slowly test Cao's bottom line."

"Okay." Sun Quan also nodded.

Looking at Lu Xun and then at Zhou Yu, he sighed, "Now that Jiangdong has reached this point, thanks to the two of you for not giving up, he will be as glorious as ever and will be rewarded generously."

Zhou Yu just smiled and thought, Jiangdong's glory will surely return, but that is the light of the new era and does not belong to people like them from the old era.

Lu Xun saluted.

Xuchang.

Liu Bei looked at Kuai Yue and Cai Hao and said calmly, "No matter who succeeds as the pastor of Jingzhou, Bei will guard the gate of Jingzhou and lead the troops in the Northern Expedition! Please don't force me anymore!"

Kuai Yue and Cai Mao had no choice but to give up.

This time, it was in vain again.

But it doesn't matter, if you try it again then, you will succeed.

Regardless of this matter, the atmosphere at the table was quite pleasant.

And Cai Mao, looking at Liu Bei's easy-going and elegant face, knew that if this man was in charge, things like what happened in the north would not happen.

So he smiled and said, "I heard that Duke Xuande's eldest son is now studying with A Chu?"

"Yeah, it's a pity that Adou is useless." Liu Bei shook his head helplessly, "The academic work is mediocre, but the fun is full."

"The child is still young." Cai Mao smiled, "Mao heard A Chu say that A Dou is just too young now and is too playful. When he grows up and becomes more sensible, he will become a talent."

"Then I would like to thank Military Master Cai for his kind words." Liu Bei then toasted Cai Mao with a glass of wine.
