"Brother Wentai, in addition to the marriage, there is one more thing I have to explain to you when I come to Wu this time." Gao Fei thought about it carefully and then said.
Sun Jian said: "Please speak."
"I remember that I told you about trade a long time ago, but several years have passed and we have not been able to implement it. Now our country, Yan, has worked hard to build several large-scale ships that can carry goods.
, allowing uninterrupted exchanges at sea, I hope that through shipping, items that are in short supply between the two countries can be transported to the two countries through trade, for mutual benefit."
After hearing this, Sun Jian nodded and said: "Well, I agree with your point of view. There are ships in the south and horses in the north. Soochow is short of war horses. If my dear brother can transport a large number of war horses to Wu, I will not be stingy with Wu."
products of the country.”
"War horses can be transported to the Kingdom of Wu, but they have to be transported by land instead of sea. The sea is too bumpy, and the transportation time is also very long. I am afraid that the war horses cannot withstand the bumps on the sea. A high-quality war horse
, after getting off the ship, he will definitely become extremely weak."
"This is indeed a problem, but there is a Wei State between us. Although Cao Cao has made an alliance with Xiandi, this alliance is not reliable. If he wants to pass through the Wei State, he will definitely be blocked. Let's do this, Xiandi
Have someone transport it every time
A thousand war horses were kindly taken care of along the way. As for how much is left after arriving, I will take as much as possible. The bumpy long distance can indeed cause certain harm to the war horses. The sea route is much worse than the land route. I can understand this. So, my best friend
Sun Jian smiled and said: "They are just ordinary things. I can satisfy my dear brother. Kuaiji has been a famous place for smelting since ancient times. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, most of the most famous swords came from here. It is rich in iron and steel.
It can completely meet your needs."
"Haha, brother Wen Tai, what I want is a large amount. My army is large in number, but there are still some soldiers who don't even have armors. We urgently need to build a batch of armors and weapons. Unfortunately, Yan State has few irons and can only rely on Wen.
Brother." Gao Fei said against his will.
"It doesn't matter, I will give you as much as you want."
Gao Fei nodded and continued: "I hope Brother Wentai can give me some more shipbuilding craftsmen, so that I can build more merchant ships. In addition, we will also do some research on currency.
How about unification? Nowadays, our country, Yan, implements a monetary policy based on five baht coins, silver coins as the standard, and gold coins as high-level monetary units. If the two countries conduct trade, they should unify their currencies. Just change the gold coins.
, the silver can be refined into coins.”
After hearing this, Sun Jian became interested and asked, "What do gold and silver coins look like?"
Gao Fei then took out a gold coin and a silver coin and handed them into Sun Jian's hands.
Sun Jian looked at the gold and silver coins and asked suspiciously, "Xian brother, the portrait on these gold and silver coins seems to be you, right?"
"It's not as if, it's me after all." Gao Fei said.
Sun Jian asked in confusion: "What's the point of this?"
"It doesn't make any sense. It's just to make a difference. This time I also brought a mold for making money with me on the ship. Brother Wen Tai came in handy."
Sun Jian laughed and said: "My dear brother, you are really well prepared. That's good, I can ask the craftsmen to rush the production."
Later, Gao Fei told Sun Jian that the measurement between gold coins, silver coins, and five baht coins determined the prices of goods in the two countries.
In terms of monetary policy, Yan State has been implementing it for two years. Facts have proved that Gao Fei's policy of using five baht coins as the currency has achieved obvious results. The Han Dynasty originally used five baht coins as its basis, whether it was buying or selling.
Or sell it, both use five
Baht coins were circulated. On the basis of not abolishing the five-baht coin, Gao Fei added gold coins and silver coins, which not only greatly reduced the excessive waste of gold and silver, but also made the gold and silver coin system higher than the five-baht coin, becoming a
A precious metal.
The two "kings", who were both the heads of the same country, talked freely with each other in the main hall of the Wu Palace. During the conversation, Gao Fei also introduced some experience in governing the country to Sun Jian. After that, the two discussed the marriage of Zhou Yu and Ouyang Yinying.
After some discussion, a wedding date was officially determined.
Three days later, the streets of Jianye City were deserted. King Sun Jian of Wu and King Gaofei of Yan presided over the wedding of Zhou Yu and Ouyang Yinying at the same time. The wedding was held in the Palace of Wu. The wedding procession went directly from the south of the city to the north of the city, and then entered the Palace of Wu.
On this day, Zhou Yu wore a groom's outfit and walked around the city ostentatiously. The handsome and scumbag Zhou Yu immediately attracted the favor of many women and became the idol in the hearts of girls who attracted thousands of people.
After the wedding team entered Wu Palace, a grand wedding ceremony was held in Wu Palace. All the civil and military officials in Jianye City were present, and everyone was immersed in the celebration of the wedding.
Two days later...
King Yan Gao Fei left Jianye City accompanied by King Sun Jian of Wu personally. The two said goodbye and exchanged a few greetings with a little reluctance. Afterwards, Gao Fei, Gan Ning, Wen Pin and a long
The convoy drove slowly towards Qu'a, accompanied by Wu's general Cheng Pu and escorted along the way with 500 cavalry.
The group had walked less than five miles when they saw a carriage parked on the road ahead, blocking the way. A woman in gorgeous clothes got out of the carriage.
When Wenpin saw the woman, he hurriedly said to Gao Fei: "Your Majesty, you are the princess."
Gao Fei ordered to stop moving forward temporarily, turned over and dismounted, and walked straight towards Ouyang Yinying.
"Brother, you left, why didn't you notify me? If Gong Jin hadn't sighed there, I wouldn't have known you were leaving today." Ouyang Yinying walked to Gao Fei and whispered.
Gao Fei smiled and said, "You are newlyweds, so I don't want to disturb you. Besides, I will leave sooner or later, and I have nothing to tell you, so I won't bother you."
Ouyang Yinying said: "Brother, from today on, we may not be able to see each other for a long time. I will definitely do my best for the things my brother has assigned me. Now that Zhou Yu has been appointed by King Wu as the rebel general, I guess Wu
The king wants to use troops against Shanyue, and I will follow my brother's instructions and help Zhou Yu step by step to control the military power of Wu."
"Well, that's good. You know your responsibilities, and that's enough. However, you have two identities now. In Wu State, you are Zhou Yu's wife. In Yan State, you are still the princess and the military advisor of the Detachment of Women.
.The Detachment of Women of Yan State is in the process of being founded
I hope that when you return, you can see the strength of the Detachment of Women. Then I will leave the affairs of Zhou Yu and the State of Wu to you. Remember to let the King of Wu conquer the mountains first, then conquer Jingzhou in the west, and then increase the troops in Jiujiang County to contain Cao Cao.
Xuzhou’s military strength.”
"Don't worry, I will do it. Brother..."
Gao Fei saw that Ouyang Yinying was hesitant to speak, so he said: "If you have anything to do, just say it, there is no need to hesitate."
Ouyang Yinying nodded and said, "When brother leaves, can you take away the sisters?"
Gao Fei laughed and said: "Xiaoying, you have to have confidence in yourself. With your appearance, you are one of the best in the Wu Kingdom. On the day you got married, you didn't even know how many women were envious, jealous, and hateful of you."
.However, you can rest assured that when I leave this time, I will take the sisters with me."
Ouyang Yinying said: "Brother, take care of yourself all the way. Xiaoying will see you off not far away."
Gao Fei nodded, leaned close to Ouyang Yinying's ear, and whispered softly: "I'll give you a piece of advice, men are all lustful. Even though Zhou Yu seems to be quite serious on the surface, you must try your best to make Zhou Yu concentrate on him.
It’s all on you.”
"Sakura understands."
……………………
At the port of Qu'a, Wu soldiers loaded all the goods onto Yan's ships. After Cheng Pu commanded the soldiers to finish their work, he walked up to Gao Fei who was sitting aside, cupped his hands and said: "King Yan, everything is ready."
It's ready, King Yan can set off at any time."
Gao Fei nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, General Cheng."
"What did the King of Yan say? It's an honor for Cheng Pu to serve the King of Yan. The King of Yan left in such a hurry and didn't even come to visit the mountains and rivers. Does the King of Yan really not intend to stay in the Kingdom of Wu again?"
Have you stayed for a while?"
"Although the mountains and rivers are good, as the leader of a country, I have been away from the Yan Kingdom for too long. As the saying goes, a country cannot live without a king for a day. If I don't rush back as soon as possible, it is still unknown what problems will occur.
"
Cheng Pu said: "The King of Yan is really a good king who works diligently and loves his people. I believe that the people of Yan will live a happy life."
"Haha, General Cheng, your purpose of seeing you off has been achieved. Please go back and resume your duties. I will leave the Kingdom of Wu today. Please tell the King of Wu that if the King of Wu has free time in the future, please come to the Kingdom of Yan. I will definitely take him.
He traveled around the mountains and rivers of Yan State to let him experience the style of the north."
"Please don't worry, King Yan, I will definitely tell you this in the end."
Gao Fei stood up, clasped his fists at Cheng Pu and said, "General Cheng is busy with military affairs, so I won't bother you anymore. I'll take my leave."
After the words fell, Cheng Pu personally put Gao Fei on the ship. He watched Gao Fei leave the port with five merchant ships, then turned around and left, taking his men back to Jianye.
After Gao Fei boarded the boat, he had someone put down a small boat as the boat walked for a while. He and Gan Ning disguised themselves, got on the boat together, and slowly sailed towards the north bank. The entire fleet
He handed it over to Wenpin and continued to sail to the sea.
Flying high, Gan Ning approached the north bank. After landing, Gan Ning asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, do we really want to return to the Yan Kingdom by land?"
Gao Fei nodded heavily and said: "Now that I have decided, I will not regret it. First go to Lujiang Shucheng to take away the sisters, and then follow me to Runan County."
"Runan County? Isn't Runan County the Kingdom of Wei? Does your Majesty want to go to the Kingdom of Wei? But what are we going to do in Runan County?" Gan Ning asked in surprise.
Gao Fei smiled evilly and said, "The secret must not be revealed. You will know it when the time comes."
