In the end, this "war" ended with Zhuang Jinhan's victory, and correspondingly, the opponent fled.

Originally, they did not plan to participate in the country's internal affairs, but now that the other party has launched an attack, if they don't fight back, wouldn't they become a soft persimmon that is easy to pinch.

But this matter still involves other countries, so they just do it quietly, but as long as they are not stupid, they know that they have intervened.

A few days later, this domestic "battle" ended in a big victory for the king.

"Lord Zhuang, what the king means is that these are all spoils of war. I hope we can accept them with a smile." Yu Xia was doing translation at the side. To the outside world, Yu Xia was an existence dedicated to communicating with people.

"We accepted this great gift, but you tell him that you hope that this matter will not be spread." Zhuang Jinhan said seriously.

Yu Xia told the king what Zhuang Jinhan meant, exchanged a few words with him, and then turned to look at Zhuang Jinhan.

"Master Zhuang, the king would like to ask why the news cannot be spread. After all, this is a great thing to show our country's prestige." Yu Xia replied earnestly, without modifying any meaning on his own. It's better to be honest, but secondly, he can't. After all, he already knows that Lu Siyu can understand the words of foreigners, so how dare he talk nonsense.

"Don't bother the king to worry about this matter. You just need to tell him what I want. If he spreads the word, we have the ability to terminate his king's career." Zhuang Jinhan frowned, but his words were somewhat threatening.

"Yes, Master Zhuang." Yu Xia told the king exactly what Zhuang Jinhan meant.

The king also frowned, as if he was thinking about what was going on, but he nodded, expressing that he would never tell the matter.

"You can tell the king that now is a good time to consolidate the imperial power, and it would be bad if the people know that outsiders are interfering." Zhuang Jinhan said again, which can be regarded as a stick for a sweet date.

Yu Xia hurriedly told the king Zhuang Jinhan's words. Sure enough, the king's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he nodded vigorously immediately, and said a lot in a row. Even if he couldn't understand, he could see his excitement.

Sure enough, Yu Xia said what the king meant when he translated, and expressed his gratitude to Zhuang Jinhan for his reminder.

Zhuang Jinhan nodded, and said a few more words to the king, and after the chat, he had his things carried away.

Looking at the boxes of jewels, Lu Siyu couldn't help feeling a little emotional: "If the emperor knows that you have brought so many jewels, but you didn't spend them, you will be very surprised."

During these days they came all the way, although they exchanged a lot of things, most of them were jewelry from the pirate ship, or they exchanged things like porcelain and silk, and the jewelry they brought was basically useless , Now that I have picked up so many boxes here, I don't have to worry about it in the days to come.

"Does Brother Yu want to see the emperor?" Zhuang Jinhan asked suddenly.

"Forget it," Lu Siyu quickly shook his head, "I was shocked when I found out the identity of my uncle, let alone meeting the emperor."

"Father values ​​you very much." Zhuang Jinhan smiled. In fact, the emperor mentioned Lu Siyu many times, but he blocked them all.

"Uncle thinks highly of me?" Lu Siyu was surprised.

"Well, he said that you are very clever to wake up the dreamer with just one word." Zhuang Jinhan smiled, looking at Lu Siyu's expression, seeing his surprised expression, the smile on his face deepened.

"..." Lu Siyu was speechless.

"What? What's Brother Yu thinking?" Zhuang Jinhan teased.

"No, I just thought it was a bit unbelievable. I didn't expect my uncle to say that." Lu Siyu was a little embarrassed. It would be fine if he was the father of an ordinary friend, but he was a high-ranking official, and he always felt very embarrassed to be praised by him.

"Brother Yu, gold always shines." Zhuang Jinhan smiled, before he said that the emperor had mentioned him several times.

"So...a thick gold chain?" Lu Siyu suddenly thought of what Zhuang's mother said back then.

Now it was Zhuang Jinhan's turn to be speechless: "How can Brother Yu remember this so clearly..."

"Probably impressed and unexpected." Lu Siyu smiled and looked up at Zhuang Jinhan.

Zhuang Jinhan was helpless, raised his hand to rub Lu Siyu's hair, and silently changed the subject: "Our next itinerary should be low-key."

"Well, it's too troublesome to prevent this incident from happening again." Lu Siyu pretended not to know that Zhuang Jinhan changed the subject, and followed his words.

"Indeed, although we have plans to promote our country's prestige this time, our dynasty has not yet reached the level where we can not fear any war. On the contrary, our dynasty has just recovered and cannot withstand the invasion of war. The more people know The strength of our court is very unfavorable to our court." Zhuang Jinhan explained.

"Yes, before we have absolute strength, we shouldn't reveal our bottom line. The strength of a country alone can't represent everything. If a real accident occurs, it will be too late to regret." Lu Siyu was talking about the previous life, when ancient China was also the most powerful in the world However, it has always been remembered by people from other countries. When the strength of the opponent is enough, the war will break out.

As far as Lu Siyu himself is concerned, he doesn't like to open and close when doing things, but likes to grow stronger quietly, but he is also very clear that his thoughts can only represent himself, and cannot hinder others' thoughts.

"Bottom line?" Zhuang Jinhan asked back.

"Stay on the sidelines in everything, don't show all your hole cards, so that you can fight back." Lu Siyu said with a smile.

"Hahahahaha, I didn't expect Brother Yu to have such an idea. I don't know if you have left a line for me?" Zhuang Jinhan asked with a smile.

"Everyone has their own secrets, and I think Brother Zhuang is the same." Lu Siyu looked at Zhuang Jinhan. His bottom line was his origin and the existence of Taobao. His own, a secret that cannot be told to others.

"Yes, everyone has their own secret." Zhuang Jinhan thought of the thought deep in his heart, looked at the smile on Lu Siyu's face, secretly suppressed his thoughts, and hid them in his heart.

The two of them seemed to have nothing to say when they said this, but in fact, there was an undercurrent surging faintly.

"Yu Xia." Lu Siyu turned around and called out to a man who was some distance away from them.

"Master Lu, what are your orders?" Yu Xia hurried over and asked in a low voice.

"I want to ask if there will be a big country in the future?" Lu Siyu asked, he was not as familiar with this area as Yu Xia.

"No more, there are still a few small countries left, and I don't know them very well if they are farther away." Yu Xia said quickly, pirates have fixed places to roam, and they don't roam in all sea areas.

"After going to these small countries, I will return home." This time it was Zhuang Jinhan who spoke.

"Brother Zhuang?" Lu Siyu was surprised.

"We have been out for a long time. We have seen everything that should be seen, and changed everything that should be changed. It is time to go back. After looking back, we can try to plant those seeds, which may bring us big surprises. " Zhuang Jinhan laughed.

"En." Lu Siyu nodded, with this trip to sea as an opportunity, even if it was really unfortunate that there were no surprises in all the seeds this time, he could find a way to dig out surprises among them.

The next places the fleet went to were indeed small countries, and their goal was still the same, looking for things they didn’t have in these small countries, such as animals and plants, and by the way, they would buy a lot of seeds every time they went to a small country.

This is an era before industrialization, so farming is still the foundation of people's livelihood, and these seeds are also the most important thing.

Lu Siyu thought to himself that when he went back this time, he calculated the time, it should be exactly spring, and these seeds could be planted just right after taking them back. In summer and autumn, all the crops would be harvested, which would definitely be a feast.

He could sneak in cotton seeds, and once the production of cotton began to surge, clothes, an important daily necessity, would be readily available. Not only clothes, but cotton could also be used to make quilts.

When sweet potatoes are planted in large quantities and people's food and clothing have been solved, they will start to think about the problem of clothes, so once cotton appears, it will definitely be very popular.

This is also the reason why Lu Siyu promoted sweet potatoes first. People would never consider the next step when the problem of food and clothing has not been solved, but once the problem of food and clothing is solved, the next step will also be put on the agenda.

He has a simple plan for the future, some require Taobao to complete, and some require the court's efforts, meeting Song Jue is an accident, but also a pleasant surprise, if he hadn't met Song Jue, he really didn't know how to implement his plan.

The people on the boat were very happy when they learned that they were going back to China soon. This was probably the first time they were so far away from home. Now that they heard that they were going back to China, they naturally couldn't hold back their inner excitement.

Lu Siyu leaned on the deck and couldn't help but smile when he saw the happy faces of everyone on board.

But after thinking about it, he turned around and looked at the sea with a lonely expression.

"Brother Yu." Zhuang Jinhan walked to Lu Siyu's side, and only called him in a low voice.

"Well, suddenly I feel a little homesick." Lu Siyu looked at the vast sea, even on the other side of the sea, there was no trace of his family, maybe he would never be able to see his relatives in this lifetime.

"Yueyue and the others are in the capital. With my uncle watching, they must be doing well. I think they must miss you very much." In Zhuang Jinhan's eyes, what he saw was Lu Siyu's missing and worrying about his younger siblings.

"Well, we'll see them when we go back." Lu Siyu nodded, since he couldn't explain this matter clearly, he simply didn't explain further.

"Brother Yu..." Zhuang Jinhan looked at Lu Siyu, saw that he still had a sad face, and couldn't help but speak.

"It's okay, I just thought of my mother all of a sudden. She actually wanted to see me get married, but unfortunately she can't see it now." Lu Siyu made a pun, thinking that before his accident, his mother called him to urge him to get married.

"Get married..." Zhuang Jinhan murmured in a low voice, he could decide his own life, but what about Lu Siyu's, how could he bear to let him be like himself.

"But she can't see it now. If she knows that I still don't want to get married, I don't know if she will be very angry." Lu Siyu smiled.

There are actually loopholes in this statement, but Zhuang Jinhan was preoccupied with other things and didn't notice the problem.

"Find a lady from everyone for Brother Yu in the future?"

"Let's forget it. If the personalities don't match, no matter whether it's a lady or a jasper, it's not a good match." Lu Siyu smiled lightly. After all, he still thinks of modern people in his heart. It is really difficult to accept the arranged marriages in ancient times. It's better not to get married in the first place if the family supports them.

The impact of values ​​between the ancients and modern people is not just a generation gap.
