After learning about the navy and shipbuilding, Lu Bu and his wife temporarily stayed in Yangxin City.

It was a cold winter, so Lu Bu rushed his son back to his room as soon as it got dark at night, hugged his wife and went to bed early.

"I've been traveling these past few days and I'm so tired. Tomorrow..."

Going to bed so early, Zhang Mo thought this guy had suffocated on the way, so she held down his hand to untie his belt and said.

"I know you are tired, so I have to go to bed early!" Lu Bu took off her coat and sweater, then took off his own clothes, put his wife in his arms, and said with a smile, "My husband is so unsatisfied in your eyes."

?”

Zhang Mo muttered, "Isn't that what I think about when I'm free..."

"That's because you are so attractive to me. As long as I don't think about things, smell your scent, and hold your delicate body, I can't help but..."

As he spoke, he felt that he had an idea again and quickly changed the subject, "By the way, who are you planning to recruit in Jingzhou?"

Zhang Mo leaned comfortably in his broad and warm arms, squinting contentedly, "The famous navy generals in history are all in Soochow and Jingzhou. In fact, I had thought about recruiting talents as early as when I first established the navy.

Come here, but after combing through it, we found that none of them can be recruited by us. Now we really have no choice but to try to see if Gan Ning can be kidnapped."

"Is he great?"

"This guy was a complete hooligan when he was young. He didn't do his job properly. He relied on his strength to gather a group of frivolous young people. They wore feathers on their heads, bows and arrows, and bells. They wandered around like savages. When the people heard the bells ringing, they

Knowing that Gan Ning and his gang had arrived, people at that time often called them "Jinfan Thieves"."

"Jinfan thief? What do you mean?"

"He is very rich and has a good face. He uses brocade as a sail. Even his attendants wear brocade clothes. He even uses brocade to maintain the boat. When he leaves, he cuts it off and throws it away to show that he is rich and luxurious. He uses modern

To put it bluntly, it’s just pretentious.”

Lu Bu couldn't help but gasp after hearing this, "It's indeed luxurious enough!"

Zhang Mo continued, "This man was definitely mentally ill when he was young. If he went to someone else's house to be a guest, if the family received him well, he would go through fire and water for them. If they didn't welcome him ceremoniously, he would lead his men to kill people and ransack the house.

, he even killed local officials without fail."

"How can a person like this be the commander of an army when he kills people based on his preference?"

"These are all the bastard things he did when he was young. Then one day he suddenly enlightened and began to study various schools of thought and stopped robbing families. Judging from his record after defecting to Soochow, this guy has

He is brave and resourceful and can be used in many ways, but he still has big flaws in his character. He is cruel and murderous. He often breaks his promises and even violates Sun Quan's orders. But it may be that Sun Quan's son is not majestic enough and cannot control him."

After all, Sun Quan gained his inheritance by standing on the shoulders of his father and brother. In addition, he was not very good at fighting. It was normal for Gan Ning, a ruthless man who had been a bandit, not to listen to him!

"So how old is he now and where does he play?"

"I don't know the exact age. He should be in his twenties, maybe almost thirty. If his life trajectory has not been affected by our butterfly effect, he is either with Liu Biao or Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia."

She sighed as she spoke, "Alas... Our territory is not connected to the south by a water network. If he wants to lead his troops to surrender, his fleet must follow the Yangtze River and enter the East China Sea, and then take the sea route to our country of Tang. Then he will have to pass by

The territory of Soochow may be cut off by Sun Ce."

This was also the reason why she didn't want to recruit him at first. Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, was still very charming. At least to Gan Ning, he was definitely more charming than Sun Quan.

Lu Bu said, "You said that he often breaks his promises, that is indeed possible!"

This person's character sounds more rebellious than Qu Yi's, and he does things entirely based on his preference. If A Mo hadn't introduced him, Lu Bu might not have spent time and energy going south to recruit him.

Zhang Mo said, "Let's give it a try, we can recruit the best! According to the current situation, we can only capture Gongsun Du first to strengthen the navy, then destroy Cao Mengde, then go to Hanzhong to defeat my senior brother, then capture Yizhou Liu Fan, and finally defeat

Soochow, if you spend more time, you can finally complete the reunification."

"Well, I think that's the case as well. Once you've completely solved your worries in the north before heading south, it's more stable. Then who should be sent to find Gan Ning?"

"Well... let Xun Chen go. He is very eloquent and knows how to deceive. I will sort out Gan Ning's information tomorrow and send it back to Yecheng for him to take a look at."

She said with a big yawn, "I'm sleepy, go to sleep..."

After chatting for so long, Lu Bu's feeling disappeared. He hugged his wife for a while and fell asleep.

The next morning, at Lu Gan's request, the couple took a boat with their son to go out on the sea. Fearing that the wind and waves would cause an accident, the boat did not sail too far, but sailed north along the coast. Lu Gan danced happily

, one moment I took the fishing net to catch fish, and the next I took the bow and arrow to shoot seabirds, but even after shooting several arrows, I didn't even hit a bird feather.

"Don't waste your arrows. Even if you shoot them, they will fall into the sea and you will get a big fish for nothing!" Zhang Mo looked at his son who was panting from playing with some speechlessness.

Lu Bu said, "You're just a kid, just trying to have fun!"

He walked to his son, squatted down and held his left and right hands holding the bow and arrow, and spotted a seabird that just flew over his head. He shot an arrow straight into the blue sky and hit the seabird's neck. The bird screamed and fell directly to the deck.

On the top, Lu Gan dropped his bow and arrow and ran over to pick up the bird. He looked at Lu Bu with excitement and admiration, "Daddy is so awesome, so awesome!"

Lu Bu smiled and said that this was just a trivial matter!

Lu Gan pulled out the arrows from the bird, put the body into the bamboo basket next to it, and ran to the boat to watch the fishermen fishing. After a while, the fishing net was pulled up, and there were many strange things inside, which he had never seen before.

Passed.

Logistics and transportation in this era are backward. There is no way to transport seafood to the inland. It is an extremely luxurious thing to eat some dried sea fish occasionally. Zhang Moguo has not eaten it a few times in so many years since he came here. Today he saw so many sea crabs.

, octopus, big blue shrimp, and even big lobster, she was so greedy that she walked over and squatted next to the wooden barrel and announced, "We will have a seafood dinner tonight!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Make it a barbecue!" Lu Gan said happily.

"There's no seasoning for the barbecue. Steamed sea crabs are the best! Braised prawns in oil! Stir-fried octopus! Let's go to the beach later and touch some oysters, shells and so on..."

"Can the fish be grilled?"

Lu Gan has always been thinking about the beach barbecue.

"Okay, take it back and marinate it with ginger and white wine for a while to remove the smell!"

The mother and son were facing a bucket of seafood and chatting enthusiastically about the evening's delicacies. Lu Bu sat on the deck and looked at them with a doting look on his face. He couldn't help but think of the two little ones who stayed in Yecheng. This trip to the Bohai Sea - -The trip to Qingzhou would take half a year no matter what. If it weren't for Zhen'er and Xuan'er being too young, he would have been reluctant to leave them alone for fear that they would not adapt to the local environment.

The boat moved forward for a while, and Lu Bu saw billowing smoke rising from a very far coast, and asked curiously, "What is happening there?"

A fisherman replied, "That's the government's salt farm. Are they boiling salt right now?"

"Boiled salt? How to cook it?"

“It’s just boiling sea water on the stove to make salt!”

Hearing this, Zhang Mo returned to reality from food, came over and asked, "Salt is still cooked in a pot now?"

The fisherman asked strangely, "Besides boiling, is there any other way to make salt? As long as I can remember, the government has been cooking with firewood. My eldest father, father and I all went to work in the salt field when we were serving as corvees. , or responsible for chopping firewood, or responsible for carrying water and lighting fires. This work does not seem as hard as building city walls and roads, but it is very hot. It is okay in winter, but it is impossible to survive in summer. The heat and stove gas are combined, and the body is full of heat all day long. Wet."

Zhang Mo couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this. She couldn't remember which dynasty in China introduced the technology of drying salt in salt fields. But now it seems that the Han Dynasty obviously hadn't adopted this technology yet and relied on human labor to cook it. No wonder the price of salt is so high. high.
