On the deck of the ship, Pork Rong was breathing heavily, his forehead was dripping with sweat, and his body was filled with heat as if he had just taken a sauna.
He was a little embarrassed when he spoke, and his tall and strong body jumped back like a shrimp, directly opening a distance of half a foot from Wu Dong, and waved his hands repeatedly to stop.
Wu Dong stopped and closed his hands. His forehead was also dripping with sweat, but his breath was only slightly short of breath. He calmed down after a short pause. He smiled and said: "Zhu Rong, you can't do this. You can't forget to continue training to improve your martial arts!"
"To put it lightly!"
Helplessness flashed in Zhu Zhurong's eyes, and he said angrily: "You think everyone is like you. It's really weird!"
This is really what he is saying!
Just now I had a fight with Wu Dong on the deck, about fifty moves, moving around in a corner.
The punches and kicks are made without dissatisfaction and full of energy, and the concentration is concentrated without any slack.
The two of them were extremely exhausted by their fast fighting. Whether it was physical strength or energy, they were almost at the limit of what their bodies could bear.
Obviously, Pork Rong is at the level of consolidation, and his performance is a bit worse than Wu Dong, who just broke through.
You know, he reached this level several months earlier than Wu Dong.
It can only be said that Zhu Rong's energy in recent times has not been focused on martial arts training and improvement, otherwise he would not have performed so unsatisfactory.
Of course, this is just a discussion and exchange, not a life and death fight.
Zhu Rong's physical fitness and combat experience gave him an advantage in a life-and-death fight, and both parties knew this.
But despite this, Wu Dong still couldn't help but take advantage of his words.
In his heart, he was quite happy at this time.
When he spoke, he naturally didn't hold the door tightly: "Zhu Rong, if you don't hurry up, I'm afraid I will completely surpass you soon!"
"Wait until you surpass me!"
Zhu Zhurong said angrily: "Don't you see that I am busy with fleet affairs and even have to follow the ship from time to time. How can I have so much free time?"
"Just make excuses!"
Wu Dong was in a very good mood to be able to suppress Huang Feihong's most outstanding true disciple while discussing and exchanging ideas.
After hearing Zhu Zhurong's defense, he half-ridiculed and half-reminded: "There's always time to squeeze in!"
"There is no need to worry about everything about the fleet. What are the people under me used for?"
"As long as you hold on tightly to finance, personnel, and force, just let go of the rest!"
"Set up the rules and do everything according to the rules. As long as it is generally fair and just and leaves enough room for improvement, there will be no chaos!"
These are all based on his experience in managing the militia.
Naturally, the core authority must be firmly in hand.
Like the method of decentralization and balance, it means that you will make yourself unhappy, and if you don't do well, you may be completely ignored.
But you can’t do everything yourself, because human energy is limited after all.
Maybe what Zhu Rong wants is different from what he thinks and wants to achieve.
Wu Dong regarded martial arts as well as medical skills as the basis for standing up for the times, but Zhu Rong obviously did not think so.
Understandable!
No one could have known that the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War would break out in less than ten years and tear off the last fig leaf of the Qing court.
Then, the great powers, no matter how scrupulous they are, will pounce on them and eat them.
If the Boxer Rebellion had not broken out at a critical moment, China would have been completely reduced to a colony instead of a semi-colony.
At that time, when the world was in turmoil and warlords were fighting, it was obvious that being good at martial arts would make it easier to survive and live a prosperous life.
Naturally, it is not easy to reveal such things to Zhu Zhurong, and this guy will not believe it easily. Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing.
If he could make a few remarks, it would be quite interesting. As for whether Zhu Rong could listen to it or not, it was none of Wu Dong's business.
Obviously, his suggestion ended in failure. Zhurong Rong did not continue, but changed the subject to talk about other things.
Wu Dong didn't take it seriously either. Xiaoyinyin and Zhu Zhurong were chatting happily on the deck.
Through conversations, Wu Dong gradually learned about some basic conditions in the southern coastal areas and Nanyang and other places at this time.
According to Zhu Rong, whether it is the southern coastal area or the Nanyang area, it can be described with a random word.
The tentacles of England and France had just extended their reach into the Southeast Asian region not long ago. At this time, they were still in a state of expansion, and their latest colonies were not peaceful at all.
With foreign forces interfering, the situation in the southern coastal areas is also a mess.
If the Qing Dynasty had not been able to maintain superficial stability, whether it was the so-called Beiyang Navy or the Nanyang Navy, their strength on paper was quite intimidating, and the foreigners still had some fears, and I am afraid that chaos would have broken out a long time ago.
Under such circumstances, Wu Dong advocated that the Foshan militia take the initiative to separate and establish the fleet and escort bureau, but the development trend is quite good.
Mainly because of the sufficient force, coupled with the continuous expansion of the fleet size, business was considered fair, and the situation was soon opened up in the coastal areas and nearby Nanyang areas.
According to Pork Rong's somewhat proud statement, the fleet has now opened shipping routes to various parts of Southeast Asia.
There happens to be a waterway that leads to the Kingdom of Siam. It is in the same water area as Wu Dong's target Khmer coast, so it is very convenient to get there.
Wu Dong was naturally very happy when he heard the news.
In this era, the efficiency of sea transportation is still quite good. At least if you want to transport people and supplies in the future, you don't have to worry about excessive losses on the road.
"I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you a lot from now on!"
He was not polite and expressed his thoughts directly: "After I meet the black flag giant Liu Yongfu here, I will move the population and materials when I am ready, and then I will have to rely on the help of the fleet!"
"Don't worry, I won't disappoint you!"
Zhu Zhurong hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "Let me know in advance and I will arrange the ship early!"
Wu Dong thanked him and said: "This is my future career, so I won't bother the fleet all the time!"
He stretched out his hand to stop Zhu Zhurong who was about to speak, shook his head and said: "After all, the fleet is doing business to make money, we can't always help for free!"
"So, I need your help to teach some brothers so that they can become familiar with and adapt to sailing on the sea as soon as possible. When the time comes, I will form a small fleet to get busy!"
Zhu Zhurong didn't give a big deal this time. After thinking about it, he nodded and said: "That's fine, Adong, you really think more comprehensively than me!"
Wu Dong chuckled, but he was very disapproving in his heart. No friendship could compare to real benefits, let alone his friendship with Zhu Zhurong. He was not familiar enough to be able to use militia to divert the fleet at will...
