The Three Kingdoms

"Waterproof cabin?" Dong Qi looked slightly puzzled.

"It's a watertight compartment!"

Sun Quan was taken aback when he saw the shipbuilder, and immediately remembered that it was only in the Tang Dynasty that there was a shipbuilding skill, which did not seem to exist in this era. The compartments are tightly separated, even if one or two compartments are damaged and flooded, the water will not flow to other compartments...The watertight compartment not only improves the anti-sinking performance of the ship, but also increases the safety performance of long-distance voyages.”

"Watertight compartment?"

After all, Dong Qi was a great shipbuilder, and his familiarity with ships was unmatched, and he immediately understood the meaning of Sun Quan's words, his eyes suddenly burst into light, and he said loudly: "My son's words are very kind, but it is a reminder to someone! "

"Dong Gong, I know you are very familiar with warships, but it is difficult to make a big deal behind closed doors!"

Sun Quan felt that Dong Qi's character was somewhat arrogant, so he reminded softly: "If you want to build a warship that can sail in the sea, the opinions of every shipbuilder are very important. You It is necessary to gather the opinions of all the master craftsmen in the dock to make up for the unexpected aspects of you!"

The hundreds of shipbuilders that Sun Quan summoned recklessly, actually regarded this place as a base for battlefield development and research, allowing them to better exchange technologies between the two sides, thereby improving the research and development of warships.

"What you said is very true, I will definitely gather everyone's thinking to refit this warship, and I must strive for perfection."

Dong Qi was startled, bowed immediately, and said respectfully.

[Chapter 111 Letter from Xu Shu]

Since the Jiangdong Army captured Kuaiji County and Danyang County in one fell swoop, the atmosphere in the entire Jiangdong has become a little quieter. It is peaceful and there is basically no war.

Sun Jian added two counties all at once, of course, with his head buried in the development. Chen Wen, who controls Yuzhang and Lujiang, is now sick in bed, and Hua Xin and Lu Kang, who are under his command, dare not rush to start a battle.

Liu Yao is now keeping an eye on his own one-acre three-point land in Jiujiang County, and he doesn't have the ability to cross the river.

So Jiangdong has become quiet and peaceful. During this period of time, with the cooperation of Jinyiwei under Sun Quan's command, the Polu General's Mansion has also strengthened its control over the three counties of Jiangdong.

Time flies, and it is December of the second year of Chuping, which is approaching the New Year's Eve and the Spring Festival. As the center of Sun Jian's regime, Wu County is bustling with people coming and going, and the weather this year seems to be warmer. A little snowflake.

Sun Family Mansion, Tianji Small Building.

Cai Yan was wearing a blue palace dress, and Qianqianyu was reading a book with a "music score" in his hands, while Sun Quan was sitting opposite her and was also reading a "book". "The Analects of Confucius", aiming at Cai Yan's small face, watching with relish.

As the year approaches, the General's Mansion and the Prefect's Mansion are even more busy. Sun Jian and Sun Ce are the lords of Jiangdong and the Sheriff of Wu County. They are as busy as dogs every day.

Sun Quan is not so stupid, he can be lazy if he can.

Jin Yiwei has not had many big things recently, they are all trivial matters. He let Han Tao, a precocious boy, handle the training of the tiger warriors under the car. The base was already on track, and he arranged for some internal affairs personnel to watch it, and then let Dong Qi only be in charge of technical management, and it developed smoothly.

As the saying goes, a good man speaks out, but a stupid man does it. The most important thing to be a boss is to know how to employ people. Otherwise, like Zhuge Kongming, who bows to his best and dies, it will be a tragedy.

Sun Quan, who has stolen half a day's leisure, naturally has to step up his actions. After getting along, experiencing life and death, facing each other day and night, Cai Yan, a beautiful woman, has already given half of her heart to him, and now he is almost ready. Take down this shy future daughter-in-law in one fell swoop.

For Sun Quan, nothing is more important than finding a wife by himself, and picking up girls is his greatest job.

In the gazebo of the small building, under Sun Quan's scorching gaze, Cai Yan couldn't help feeling that her little face was hot, blushing and glittering, and finally she couldn't take it anymore, so she raised her head, raised her eyebrows, and gave Sun Quan a big hygienic eye , said angrily: "Quan, I asked you to come here to study, not to stare at me!"

"Aren't I just reading?"

Sun Quan held up the "Analects of Confucius" in his hand, and said righteously: "Sister Cai, Quan is really studying. Although you are very beautiful, I am not looking at you. You can't wrong me!"

"Hmph! Is that so? Your book is held upside down." Cai Yan stared, Qiong's nose trembled slightly, and her little face was flushed, which was really cute.

"what?"

Sun Quan flipped through the paper, and immediately saw the word "Analects of Confucius" read vertically, which became "Lunyu". However, his face, which was three feet thicker than the city wall, did not show any embarrassment. Turn it upside down, and said: "Sister Cai, you don't understand this. I am here to train my reading realm. If you can read a book upside down and understand it, that's called reading."

"Quan, your reading level is really high!" Cai Yan was stunned when he heard Sun Quan's nonsense, and couldn't help but cover his mouth with a coquettish smile, and said sarcastically.

She knows exactly how much ink Sun Quan has. If it is said that he has some skills in speech and manners, he can say everything logically, but if it is really tested, he can still understand a few sentences in "The Analects of Confucius", and other "Mencius" "Doctrine of the Mean", "University"... I don't understand any of these.

"That is!"

Sun Quan was not ridiculed in the slightest, with a look of arrogance on his face, and then he said without shame: "In order to marry such a talented woman as Sister Cai as a wife in the future, my Sun Zhongmou has gone out, and I must study hard in the future, so that Smell the chicken and dance, hang the beam and stab the butt, otherwise how can I please my old man who is a great sage in the court in the future!"

"Hey, shameless, who will marry you!"

Cai Yan's cheeks were flushed, her beautiful eyes sparkled, her eyes were complicated, her jade teeth bit her bright red lips, and finally she sighed helplessly: "Quan, don't talk nonsense, my father has already betrothed Zhao Ji Given it to the Wei family, Zhaoji is already a member of the Wei family in this life."

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, rituals and music collapsed, but some prestigious families still value reputation very much. Since she has asked her father to betroth her to the Wei family, the Wei family will never let her go.

"Hmph!" Sun Quan snorted coldly, and said, "Sister Cai, the Wei family thinks your Cai family are fools. Whether Wei Zhongdao can survive this year is a question. Are you allowed to marry a dead man? He deserves to marry you." Not on you!"

"Quan, what do you mean by that?" Cai Yan felt flustered when he heard the words, fixed his beautiful eyes on Sun Quan's expression, and hurriedly asked, "Don't mess around, the Wei family is the number one family in Hedong. It has such a great influence among the world's aristocratic families."

Cai Yan followed Sun Quan to the south and has been together for more than a year, so he knows Sun Quan well. Sun Quan is usually smiling and easy-going, but his personality is actually the same as that of Sun Jian and Sun Ce, and he is domineering in his bones.

She was not concerned about Wei Zhongdao who had never met before, but worried that Sun Quan would do something that would hurt her reputation.

"What can I do! His Wei family is in Hedong, and I am in Jiangdong. Even if I want to kill him, it will be difficult."

Sun Quan smiled coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Sister Cai, Wei Zhongdao was originally a sick child, didn't you know that? Quan really didn't understand, did your old man Cai get so confused that he betrothed you to A sick child."

"what?"

When Cai Yan heard this, her heart couldn't help trembling, and she said in a trembling voice: "Impossible, my father said that Wei Zhongdao was born in a noble family, with both civil and military skills, a good-looking talent, and full of economics. He is a pillar of the country, so he betrothed me to him .”

"Sister Cai, have you met Wei Zhongdao?" Sun Quan asked with a dark face when he heard Cai Yan's words.

"No!" Cai Yan shook his head.

"It's not old man Cai who lied to you, or the people from the Wei family lied to old man Cai." Sun Quan sighed. He knew that in this world, the so-called orders of parents can determine a person's marriage.

"Quan, don't be rude to my father, my father will never lie to me!" Cai Yan's beautiful eyes were filled with a firm light.

"Son!"

At this time, a guard of the Sun family walked into the Tianji small building, handed an envelope to Sun Quan respectfully, and said, "There is a person outside the door who claims to come from Chang'an and writes to the young master."

"Chang'an?" Sun Quan and Cai Yan looked at each other when they heard it, and they were both a little puzzled.

"Where are the people?"

Sun Quan took the envelope, and only looked at the five characters on the letter, "Mr. Quan's personal letter", then looked at the guard and asked.

"Waiting in the side hall!" The guard replied.

"Bring him here!" Sun Quan said to the guard while opening the envelope.

"No!" The guard nodded and immediately turned and walked down.

"It's Xu Shu's letter!"

Sun Quan looked at it, and his face became more and more gloomy the more he looked at it. Finally, he sighed, gritted his teeth, and said, "Damn, this old man Cai is really stupid for reading!"

"Quan, what's the matter with my father?" Cai Yan panicked, walked over with her long palace skirt in both hands, snatched the letter, her pretty face turned pale when she saw it.
