Hearing this, Cui Zhouping revealed a look of understanding, and nodded slowly.
"Yes! Prime Minister, I can find any corner of the mountain you want to go to! May I ask when you will leave?"
"Three days later! You can prepare a salute, and then go to my virtuous brother's house to be with him!"
……
Three days passed in a flash.
Early in the morning, Cui Zhouping came to Xia Houzhe's house, and rushed to the prefect's mansion together with his family.
He had to bring his wife with him for traveling with public funds like this!Let them go out for a walk too!
Staying at home every day is not a problem!It's not bad to go out and take a luxury yacht!
When they found Cao Cao, Cao Cao took Xia Houzhe and the others, along with Lu Bu Xunyu, to the craftsman's office.
At the moment, there is a large iron boat more than 100 meters long!
The whole body is still painted, and the three big characters of "Dingyuan" are written on it!
This name was given by Xia Houzhe!
The entire ship has no sails, and just looking at the hull gives people a strong sense of oppression!Very mighty!
But there are still two floors on the ship, and luxurious buildings are built!Archers can be loaded during wartime, and maids can also be equipped to serve people during play.
Looking at the ship, Cao Cao smiled proudly, with a hint of pain in his smile.
Cui Zhouping was shocked in place!
"Fuck! Prime Minister, you baby, are you actually made of iron?"
Chapter 606 Yuxi smashed walnuts?you are a show
Cui Zhouping was shocked by the boat in front of him!
He has never seen such a thing as an iron boat since he was born, and he has learned a lot today.
Cao Cao waved his hand indifferently: "Ji Cao is not six! There is nothing to make a fuss about, didn't you say before? I don't have a navy in Cao Ying!"
"However, I can tell you that in the future, all the water troops in Cao Ying will drive iron warships to conquer the world!"
"I, Cao Cao, went to Jingzhou this time not only to find the commander of the Yishui Army, but also to build my shipyard in Nanyang!"
Although Chen Liu was close to Sui River, he was not connected to the Yangtze River.
If the ship is built in Chenliu, it will definitely be a big trouble to transport it there in the future!
If a shipyard can be established near Nanyang Wancheng, it will definitely be of great convenience to the follow-up expedition!
The northern part of Nanyang basically belongs to Cao Ying, and the boundary is divided by Wancheng!The southern part of Nanyang is still ruled by Liu Biao and the family.
Once the shipyard is completed, he also wants Cao Ren and Zhang Xiu to train the navy together. He must let his own people control such a core army.
Cui Zhouping was stunned. After a few seconds of silence, he thought of a very serious problem.
"Prime Minister, this ship is so big...how did you transport it to a tributary of the Yangtze River?"
"As far as I know, Chen Liu doesn't have a waterway to Jingzhou, right? You have to ride a horse to Yingchuan or Nanyang before you can go into the water!"
"If this transportation problem is not resolved, I think... I am afraid that the iron ship is just a display!"
Hearing this, Cao Cao, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Zhicai all had a sudden shock in their hearts!
All of them opened their mouths wide and looked at each other tactically.
They were intoxicated by the might and arrogance of iron ships before, and they only wanted to build a big one in their hearts, and they never thought about transportation at all!
Moreover, they have been paddling for so many years, why would they think about sharing the burden for Cao Cao?
Anyway, the lord and Cheng Yu and Lusu will take care of the big and small things, and they will offer a suggestion occasionally, just come out and pretend to be a presence.
At this moment, Cao Cao realized the seriousness of the problem.
If it can't be transported, it can only be placed in Chen Liu as a display!
Fifty thousand gold!Thanks to him, he bragged to the generals under his command with arrogance and arrogance, that he wanted to take the iron boat to pacify Jiangdong and Jingzhou.
Now put down a hammer!Don't be laughed at by them!
"What's going on? If you come up with an idea, this wise man is bound to make a mistake. I missed my calculation!"
Cao Cao looked at these counselors wanting to cry but without tears. If they didn't paddle, they would be the best in the world.
A stroke of water, at best, is Yan Xiang's level.
Several people frowned and thought for a few seconds, then all looked at Xia Houzhe.
"My lord! If you... find us, you might as well find Yuan Yi and let him use the method of the immortal family to take this thing away!"
"Yes! And my brother!"
Cao Cao's eyes lit up, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he grabbed the opponent's arm.
"My dear brother, help me transport this thing away! Get it to Nanyang, no... just get it to Yingchuan! Then we can go on a boat trip! Look...how about it?"
Xia Houzhe frowned and remained silent, his face extremely serious!
Seeing this, Cao Cao's heart was straightened, for fear that the other party would tell him that the concubine could not do it!
However, before Xia Houzhe could speak, Mrs. Zhang beside Cao Cao spoke.
"Husband, look at my son-in-law's body is only so small, and your baby is so big, I'm afraid... it won't fit in it?"
puff…
As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao and Xia Houzhe immediately spewed out.
Guo Jia, Xunyu and the others looked back and forth between the two of them with smirks. The meaningful smile made Xia Houzhe want to beat them up.
"Cough! Sister-in-law, look what you said? I can handle this thing, but it's very laborious!"
"Or... let's not go, it's a long way, and I have to spend a lot of time and effort, alas!"
Hearing this, Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly, considering the meaning of the other party's words.
The other party did not refuse, proving that he was capable of taking it away, but he also did not leave after speaking.
This is... Don't have a picture!Profiteer!Don't you just want benefits?
Cao Cao has made another difficulty, the other party is not short of money, and there is no shortage of delicious food and beautiful women!
For a while, he didn't know what benefits to give to the other party to impress him.
After contemplating for a few minutes, Cao Cao suddenly thought of something!
"Hey! Brother, as long as you help me get this thing to a tributary near Yingchuan, I'll lend you a baby and let you play for a few months! Look...how about it?"
Cao Cao rubbed his hands together, and looked at the other party with a little flattery.
Now that the arrow is on the string, it has to be launched. This boat is just a decoration if it is not launched!
Xia Houzhe glanced at him lightly, his eyes extremely disdainful.
"Lend me to play? You can only play for a few months? What kind of treasure, you are so reluctant to give it to me? You take it out first, and I will see it!"
"Fuck this big guy, I will at least lose half of my life, if something is not attractive, I won't do it!"
The corner of Cao Cao's mouth curled up, and he patted his chest hard.
"I guarantee that this thing is absolutely unique in the world, and extremely precious!"
After speaking, everyone's curiosity was aroused, and their eyes were all on Cao Cao.
Cao Cao looked around and saw no outsiders, so he took out a gold-rimmed box from his arms.
"You promise me first, and I will leave it to you to play for a few months! You are satisfied!"
Xia Houzhe nodded and didn't shirk, how could he not leave after he came.
It is nothing more than a businessman's mentality, which is not beneficial and uncomfortable.
Cao Cao carefully handed the box to Xia Houzhe, who opened it...
I saw a big square jade stone inside!
Looking at this piece of jade, the audience was shocked and gasped.
Xun Yu almost screamed, but fortunately, Guo Jia had quick eyesight and quick hands, and slapped Xun Yu with all his strength, twisting Xun Yu's mouth, so he didn't cry out.
Xun Yu glanced at Guo Jia gratefully, and cupped his hands.
"Brother, thanks!"
Guo Jia smiled slyly: "Hey! No thanks, I will help you next time!"
"Last time you slapped me, today I'm happy too!"
It's all about personal grievances!
Xia Houzhe picked up the jade and looked at it... There are eight big characters at the bottom.
Ordered by the sky, you will live forever!
Looking at this thing, his face gradually pulled down, and his eyes were extremely disgusted.
"Is this jade seal the treasure you mentioned?"
"Brother, keep your voice down! Don't be heard by other people! You are my confidantes, it doesn't matter if you know it, but others can't!"
Cao Cao hissed, extremely vigilant.
Xia Houzhe curled his lips: "What's the use of me holding this broken stone? How about... How about giving me tens of thousands?"
Cao Cao immediately waved his hand and refused.
"No! I want to build a shipyard, but I have no money! What I, Cao Cao, get paid depends not on what you want, but on what I have!"
Xia Houzhe no longer insisted, and after taking a few glances at Yuxi, he pulled out a large handful of walnuts...
Then he raised the jade seal high with his right hand, and slapped it on the walnut under the horrified eyes of everyone.
Snapped…
The walnuts shattered!
Cao Cao froze in place. When someone else got the jade seal, he cared more than his own woman.
This kid is holding a jade seal to shoot walnuts?
I ride a horse...
"Fuck! Brother, what are you doing? Don't break it for me! Take the jade seal to shoot walnuts, you are a fucking beauty!"
Cao Cao exclaimed.
Lu Bu smiled lightly: "What is this? He even used Fang Tian to draw a halberd and let you peel apples! He is even more handsome than Xiuer!"
Xun Yu next to him immediately came to his senses, took out a cheat sheet and wrote it down.
In the first year of Xingping (194), Xia Houzhe, governor of Yanzhou, took walnuts from Chuanguo Yuxi and shocked the prime minister.
……
Xia Houzhe picked up a lump of walnut meat and threw it into his mouth, chewing it carefully, with a slight smile on his face.
"Huh? This thing is really good for hitting walnuts! It can be smashed into pieces with a light tap, which is better than a hammer!"
"By the way, where did you get this thing? Did Liu Xun give it to you?"
Cao Cao glared at him angrily.
"You figured it out and asked! Use it lightly these few months, don't let me break it! This is the only lump in the world!"
"Alright! Walnuts are not as hard as this rock, don't worry, they won't go bad!"
Xia Houzhe waved his hands disapprovingly.
Then he stepped to the side of Dingyuan, reached out his hand, and touched it.
The indifference on his face gradually turned red.
The veins on the forehead of the whole person are throbbing, the muscles of the whole body are enlarged, and even the clothes are torn by him!
Everyone's hearts were raised accordingly!
