Chapter 538 Gambling

"Ah Qing, aren't you afraid of luring wolves into your house?"

Gu Heng leaned on the table, looking extremely lazy.

Although he had confidence in his granddaughter, Gu Heng still couldn't hold back and asked.

"Wolf? Wolf is good. In this world, the beast that knows how to unite and cooperate best is the wolf!"

Gu Qingcheng smiled lightly.

Lead the wolf into the room?

Are you worried that other families will divide Lingnan and compete with the Gu family for territory?
None of them!

Because Gu Qingcheng has the biggest hole card, "Ah Weng, I have medicine!"

She also has the best friend of the original tribal leader like Liming Zhu.

And alliances with local wealthy families such as the Huang family and the Chen family.

Lingnan has not been fully developed and is still in a semi-barbaric state.

The miasma only has corresponding cures, rather than disappearing completely.

There are also those snakes, insects, rats, ants, malaria and other diseases, and foreign families who enter rashly, let alone get rich, are lucky if they don't get wiped out.

And these trump cards are all in Gu Qingcheng's hands.

When those families come, they will only obediently cooperate with Gu Qingcheng and become her support!
Furthermore, Gu Qingcheng’s goal has never been the small Lingnan, but the huge world!
A single tree cannot make a forest, and she needs too many helpers to accomplish her great cause!

Of course, Chen's was not included in these assistances.

Uh, okay, not necessarily—

"Chen Duan is Chen Jing's cousin, and he is also a strong leader!"

"He once made great contributions to Chen Jing's rebellion."

"This person has a perverse personality and is rebellious. Even Chen Jing sometimes has to back down a bit."

"Although he was named Prince of Liang and a first-class prince by Chen Jing, there is still a conflict between this person and Chen Jing."

Gu Qingcheng is far away from Jiankang, but still knows the court.

In addition to some memories of the previous life, there is also the credit of the spy she sent to Jiankang.

Do you really think her caravans went to Jiankang just to sell sugar and salt?
Caravans have been part-time spies since ancient times.

The information they can obtain is often the most confidential and freshest.

While Gu Qingcheng was developing industries, he also laid out information channels by the way.

Not only Jiankang, but also her "caravan" in the Northern Dynasty!
Gu Heng was not surprised that his granddaughter was "well-informed".

Just kidding, if an ambitious person can't even get information, only "ambition" is left.

What else is there to do?
The granddaughter relies on the Gu family, but she is not completely dependent on her. Instead, she has her own power. Instead of being angry or blaming her, Gu Heng feels relieved.

"Well, Chen Jing himself started his career by mutiny, so naturally he has to guard against the brave generals below to follow suit!"

"Chen Duan is the number one general under Chen Jing. Not only does he have military power, he also has the same surname as 'Chen'."

Therefore, if Chen Duan rebelled, it would not be regarded as a traitor, but at most it would be an internal struggle of the Chen family.

He doesn't need to change dynasties to get half of the world from his cousin or future nephew!
Chen Jing himself is not standing upright, so he must be afraid of his former confidantes.

"Chen Duan was driven out of the capital by Chen Jing?"

Gu Qingcheng thought about it and made a guess, but soon, before Gu Heng could say anything, she shook her head, "Not necessarily! It's also possible that Chen Duan took advantage of the situation and took advantage of the situation!"

In the capital, Chen Jing was wary of Chen Duan in every possible way.

Chen Jing is not the former Xiao Emperor, he is a rebel who came from a warlord.

The [-] elite soldiers he holds in his hands are not just decorations.

As for Chen Duan, after all, he is Chen Jing's subordinate. Although he also has soldiers, there are only [-] soldiers!

Thirty thousand people want to subvert a hundred thousand people, but they still have "righteousness", Chen Duan has no chance of winning.

But what if we leave the capital and come to Lingnan, a place far away from the sky?
Recruiting troops and contacting other families, in a few years, Chen Duan might become the next Chen Jing!
Gu Qingcheng: ... Hehe, you are treating me, Gu Qing, as a dead person!
Do you really think that Lingnan is a paradise for careerists?

Is it a no-man's land where the Chen family can do whatever they want?
"Well, as long as you know what's in your mind!"

Gu Heng had let go a long time ago, and the affairs of Lingnan were all decided by his granddaughter.

He is just waiting to see his granddaughter dance for nine days!
……

The major families were gearing up, and Liang Wang Chen Duan also pointed his sword at Lingnan.

Gu Qingcheng didn't feel like facing a big enemy, she still followed her plan and used it step by step.

"Is this the model of the treasure ship?"

Huang Yannian came to Gu's Wubao in Yuezhou again, and met Gu Sanniang, who was in the limelight recently.

However, when they met again, Huang Yannian ignored the pleasantries and was attracted by a two-foot-long and one-foot-tall model.

Although he likes to pretend to be aggressive and pretends to be from a family, he is not really an idiot.

On the contrary, as the eldest son of the Huang family, he has received a good education since childhood, has read poetry and books, and is proficient in the six arts.

When he grew up, in addition to continuing his studies, he also began to get involved in his own industry.

Huang Yannian knew everything about Huang's most fundamental business, shipping, and its related industries.

Therefore, Huang Yannian is barely a "professional" in terms of ships and charts.

Experts look at the doorway!
With just one glance, Huang Yannian discovered the beauty of this sailboat model.

First, it's big in size.

"Nine masts and twelve sails! There are four levels in total!"

Models are basically restored to scale.

Therefore, the real treasure ship should also be enlarged in the same proportion.

Nine masts and twelve sails, four levels up and down. Just thinking about it, Huang Yannian's mind appeared like a giant on the sea.

Huang Yannian stretched out his right hand and gestured with his thumb and index finger, intending to deduce the actual size of the treasure ship through the size of the model.

"About 44 feet long and [-] feet wide!"

"Sigh~~~"

Huang Yannian kept breathing, "Impossible! There is no way to build such a big sea-going ship!"

The ship in his dockyard is also considered a big ship, but compared with the treasure ship represented by this model, it is a bit insignificant.

"How is it impossible? Since I can make a model, I can build a treasure ship of the same proportion!"

Gu Qingcheng's tone was not polite, but he still had some appreciation for Huang Yannian in his heart.

Although this person is a pretentious guy who likes to imitate others, he also has some real talents.

Not to mention anything else, just that he can guess the actual size of the treasure ship based on the model shows that his ability is not low!
This is the truest human nature, with shortcomings but also advantages.

It's not blindly trash, and it won't be truly omnipotent.

Therefore, Liming Zhu is still willing to insist on marrying the Huang family, probably because he has seen Huang Yannian's strengths.

"No! I still don't believe it!"

Huang Yannian guessed the size of the treasure ship, and found it increasingly unbelievable.

This is impossible!

With the current shipbuilding technology, it is simply impossible to do it!
"Then let's make a bet."

What Gu Qingcheng was waiting for was Huang Yannian's "I don't believe it."

If he believed it, how would he continue singing in the next play?
