The Three Kingdoms Voyage

Chapter 57 Implications

Sun Shangxiang's smile froze, he looked at Sun Shao in a daze for a while, grinned, and said with a half-smile, "Aman, are you lying to me?"

"Why did I lie to you?" Sun Shao raised his head: "I gave Zhou Yin that wine, you don't know, the first time he drank this wine in my mansion, this man vomited .”

Sun Shangxiang suddenly became enthusiastic, patted Sun Shao on the shoulder, and raised his eyebrows: "Then we can make an agreement, I will tell you who it is, but I don't care if you can marry, you can't play tricks when the time comes .”

"Don't worry, can I play tricks on you? It's okay. If my aunt wants to drink, I, Sun Shao, have to supply it unconditionally." Sun Shao patted his chest and said very righteously.

"That's true." Sun Shangxiang moved closer to Sun Shao's ear and said softly, "Guan Yu's daughter, Guan Feng." Then he looked at Sun Shao expectantly: "Are you disappointed?"

"It's her." Sun Shao was not as disappointed as Sun Shangxiang thought, but nodded: "How old is she?"

"One year younger than you, seventeen." Sun Shangxiang blinked, and said with some regret: "When I was still in Gong'an, she was just 12 years old, she was a beautiful woman, she was good at kung fu, Guan Yu was very precious, At that time, there were several marriage proposals, but he rejected them all. It is said that if I were still there now, I could propose marriage for you, but now, my aunt is powerless. "

"Hee hee, as long as aunt has the heart." Sun Shao said disapprovingly: "Don't worry, aunt, as soon as I return to Wu County, I will send you a boat of wine immediately."

"Trustworthy." Sun Shangxiang raised a thumbs up: "It's quite like being a father."

"Thank you, thank you." Sun Shao laughed, and suddenly had an idea: "By the way, aunt, do you have any business talents under your command?"

"Business?" Sun Shangxiang shook his head in confusion: "There is no business in my mansion. Why, do you want to do business in Jianye?"

Sun Shao smiled, explained his wine selling model, and then told Sun Shangxiang that he planned to build a workshop in Jianye to supply several counties in the surrounding area, saving him from traveling all the way from Wu County.When Sun Shangxiang heard this, her eyebrows danced, and she patted Sun Shao on the shoulder boldly: "Aman, you can leave this matter to me, and I promise to find someone you can trust to handle this matter, hahaha , it’s just the wine from my house, you will have to give it priority in the future.”

"What do you need to say?" Sun Shao was angry and funny: "I plan to give you this winery directly. Although I only earn thirty or fifty gold a year, it is also my heart to honor my aunt. Aunt, you Let me know when the arrangements are made, and I will send a few experienced hands over to help you, but you have to keep it secret, as soon as this recipe is revealed, there will be no money to be made."

"Is it up to you to say that?" Sun Shangxiang raised his brows and suddenly became angry: "Whoever dares to reveal this matter, I will kill him."

Sun Shao secretly laughed, in Jianye this place can only be managed by people like Sun Shangxiang, otherwise, it really can't control the place.The two hit it off and split up.Sun Shangxiang hurried back to the mansion to look for candidates, but Sun Shao went back to the Gu mansion. The funeral is still going on in the Gu mansion. He is also from his natal family, so he can't leave for too long.

As Sun Shao expected, as soon as he returned to Gu's mansion, Gu Yu greeted him with an anxious expression: "Aman, where have you been?"

"What's wrong?" Sun Shao was surprised.

"The Supreme One came here just now and wanted to see you, but he couldn't find you for a long time. Even your subordinates didn't know where you were. The Supreme Being was very upset. Before leaving, he left a message to ask you to go to the mansion immediately after you come back." one trip."

"To his residence?" Sun Shao hesitated.

"Aman, I didn't blame you, it's your fault." Gu Yu said unhappily: "Even if you have some opinions, you can't be angry with the Supreme, not to mention the order of the hierarchy, just say that you are uncles and nephews." It doesn't matter, when you come to Jianye, you should also visit him, right?"

Just as he was talking, Zhang Wen hurried out, and after hearing Gu Yu's words, he nodded repeatedly: "Ji Ze is right, the young master should go to the mansion to meet the Supreme Being, you were not here just now, I thought you had already gone .”

Seeing that Zhang Wen also said the same thing, Sun Shao didn't try to defend himself. Zhang Wen walked in with him and warned, "Young master, when you see the Supreme, don't act arrogantly. After all, he is the Lord of Jiangdong and yours." Uncle, you have to take care of your face, lest you lose your identity and things will be difficult to handle."

"Huishu, I think this is a bit strange." Sun Shao recounted what he heard, and finally said: "Do you think my uncle sincerely asked me to come to Jianye?"

Zhang Wen was overjoyed when he heard this, Sun Shao was able to tell him such an idea, which showed that Sun Shao trusted him.He pondered for a moment: "The young master is going here, just pay more attention. If the Supreme is just talking, you don't want to refuse it outright, and then think of other ways."

Sun Shao looked at Zhang Wen and saw that he was calm and not worried. He seemed very confident that he would stay in Jianye, but he was a little confused for a while. He smiled and cupped his hands and said, "If that's the case, just listen to him. Forgive me. I’ll go in and prepare some gifts, and then I’ll go to the mansion to pay a visit.”

Zhang Wen smiled: "I've prepared some gifts, the young master has a look, if you think it's okay, you can use them first."

Sun Shao smiled and did not refuse, and followed Zhang Wen in to have a look. Several souvenirs were not expensive, but very elegant, not only for Sun Quan, but also for Mrs. Bu, Sun Deng, Sun Luban, etc. Waiting for a few brothers and sisters to also have a share, and the preparations are very proper.He nodded in satisfaction: "Brother Huishu is not only knowledgeable, but also extremely safe in doing things, Sun Shao really admires him."

"Young master, let's not say these polite words?" Zhang Wen smiled and took out another kit, pulled the silk cord, and pulled out a stack of papers inside, which was the collection of the last meeting. "Young master, many of these poems have already been circulated in Jianye. In order to prevent anyone from tampering with ulterior motives, I specially asked everyone to write a manuscript, with everyone's signature on the back, and you submit these to the Supreme Master. .If someone can become an official because of this, it is also a kindness of the young master."

Sun Shao took a glance at the manuscript, and saw that the top one was his piece of poetry, and couldn't help but blush: "Huishu, I... don't need it."

"No." Zhang Wen smiled, and said with something in his words: "The young master is now an outstanding figure among the talents in Wuzhong, how can he get out of the matter? Besides, this poem is the work of the young master's ambition. If you present it to the supreme being to know, there may be unexpected effects."

Sun Shao smiled knowingly, collected the collection of poems, handed them to Shuai Zeng, said goodbye to Zhang Wen, and went straight to the mansion of General Cheqi.

When Sun Quan came back from Gu's residence, he discussed with Zhang Zhao and others in the front hall, and when he heard that Sun Shao was coming, he asked Gu Li to take Sun Shao to see Mrs. Bu first.Sun Shao knew that although Mrs. Bu failed to have a son, she was the most favored now. If there were no accidents, she might be the future princess or queen, so she didn't dare to neglect her.After meeting Mrs. Bu, she immediately presented the gift prepared by Zhang Wen.

Mrs. Bu smiled modestly, and warmly greeted Sun Shao to the table: "Aman, you've come as soon as you come, why are you so polite? Isn't it a family? It's really too outsider to do so."

Sun Shao respectfully saluted: "Ma'am taught you the lesson. It's just that Shao didn't take it as a gift. I haven't seen my uncle and wife for many years. If I come empty-handed, it would be rude. Even if my uncle and wife don't mind, my brothers and sisters always say I This is not a brother's stinginess. Besides, these are not valuable things, Madam don't mind."

Mrs. Bu nodded: "I heard that you were ill for a while, but fortunately God blesses you, and now you are well. It is not in vain for your uncle to worry about you all those days."

"Uncle Lao and Madam are concerned, Shao dare not be the one." Sun Shao thanked again and again.

The two were talking politely, when Sun Luban and Sun Luyu ran in from behind, Sun Luban was the first to lean into Mrs. Bu's arms, stared at Sun Shao with two big eyes, then looked up at Mrs. Bu and said: "Mother, is this the elder brother who wants to fight?"

Mrs. Bu's face turned red all of a sudden.
