Chapter 320
"But I only know the general idea, and I don't know much about the specific situation." Liu Bowen added.

"My elder brother said that the landlords in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are the same as the merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. I still want to ask the teacher, is that the case?" Zhu Zhen asked again.

"It's not accurate to say that." Liu Bowen twitched his beard and replied, "You can say that there are maritime merchants among the landlords in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but you cannot say that the landlords in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are maritime merchants."

"Understood." Zhu Zhen nodded, and asked again: "I heard that the imperial court closed the Shibo Department a few years ago. One of the important reasons is to prevent local traitors from colluding with Japanese pirates?"

"Yes." Liu Bowen nodded and said, "They tipped off the Japanese pirates, so that the Japanese pirates could evade the pursuit of the officers and soldiers in time. They also provided supplies and manpower for the Japanese pirates. Of course, the Japanese pirates will pay generous rewards."

"So, in order to restore the Shibo Department to its former glory, it is necessary to eliminate Japanese pirates, crack down on smuggling, and cut off the chain of internal and external collusion." Zhu Zhen concluded in a deep voice.

"Yes." Liu Bowen agreed: "Then you will find that you must have an army in your hands, and you must also have a powerful navy, otherwise you will not be able to do anything."

"I have two guards now." Zhu Zhen thought about it: "But there is no navy."

"I heard that you rescued the Chaohu navy?" Liu Bowen smiled and said, "It happens that they are also in a difficult situation. It would be great if they could be transferred from Huai'an to Taicang."

"Good idea!" Zhu Zhen's eyes lit up, how could he have forgotten the Chaohu Navy?

It's still second to save them by myself, the key is that they urgently need a backer now!Although my thigh is not thick enough, I can use the tiger's skin as a banner and let my elder brother come forward to help me fix it.Don't worry if they don't do it with you.

"Don't be too happy for now," Liu Bowen said lightly, "Don't forget, there is still a Marquis of Jinghai on Chongming Island. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and Marquis Jinghai may not agree to the Chaohu navy going south."

Wu Zhen, Marquis of Jinghai, was the younger brother of Wu Liang, Marquis of Jiangyin. Although the two brothers were not enshrined as princes, they had a very high status among Huaixi military generals, and they were highly regarded by Boss Zhu.

In the second year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang set up a meritorious official temple in Jilongshan, offering sacrifices to 21 founding meritorious officials. "The dead make their statues, and the living take their places." Wu Zhen and his elder brother Wu Liang are among them.This tablet is much harder than iron coupons, as long as they don't rebel, no one can touch them.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Wu Zhen was ordered to serve as the general officer of the Japanese Suppression Army, stationed in Chongming, commanding tens of thousands of naval forces, supervising shipping, and serving as the prime minister for maritime military affairs.

Over the years, matters at sea have basically been decided by Wu Zhen alone.Therefore, Boss Zhu will definitely ask for his opinion on whether to transfer the Chaohu Navy to the south.

If you don't fix Wu Zhen, everything will be useless.

After having lunch at Chengyibo's Mansion, Zhu Zhen couldn't wait to say goodbye and leave.

His beloved giant panda is still being fostered at Duke Wei's mansion facing the street.

This made Liu Ji inevitably sigh that the attractiveness of himself as a teacher is not as good as that of a giant panda...

He didn't know that in Lao Liu's place, let alone Mr. Liu, even Mr. Hebei and Mr. Sanshang combined could not compare to a giant panda.

Adding Teacher Ozawa is almost the same...

"Ah, my darling." Zhu Zhen's heart melted when he saw his giant panda.

The giant panda is also very happy to see him, because this 'breeder' will always bring him delicious food.So the two chubby creatures rushed in both directions, rubbing each other affectionately.

"Obviously it's mine..." Deng Duo was full of soreness, feeling like being confronted by a tauren.

"Deng Qianhu, you have to pay attention to your identity." Huang Mao... Oh no, His Highness King Chu raised his head.

"You have the nerve to say it, but what about my thousand households' official complaints? Why are there still hundreds of households?" the general said angrily.

"You can't blame me for this. It's your father who hindered you. He said that you haven't made any achievements and can't be promoted to a thousand households, otherwise there will be criticism." Zhu Zhen also said a little embarrassed.

He didn't expect that these uncles didn't take him seriously as a prince.

His Royal Highness the King of Chu hurried to make amends: "But in this king's army, you are already one of my thousand households. If I make a contribution to you later, won't your father have nothing to say?"

"That's true..." Deng Duo calmed down a little, and said, "However, this barbarian household can't stay here to raise pandas all day long, right? I have to be with my subordinates."

"Pandas are your subordinates. Your duty in our army is to raise pandas well." His Royal Highness King Chu said.

"You! I want to lead soldiers to fight, not to be a breeder!" Dun Duo blushed immediately: "I quit, return the panda to me, I can't insult my family!"

"Why are you in a hurry? I haven't finished talking yet." Zhu Zhenbai glanced at him and said, "And the captain of the king's personal army."

"That's about the same." Deng Duo said with a slightly confused look: "How many people are there in the personal army?"

"You have two soldiers right now, one named Gaotie and the other named Li Fangyuan." Zhu Zhen said quickly, "Both of them are about the same age as us."

"You, you are not a good person..." Dun Duo was about to burst into tears.

"Okay, okay, I'm teasing you. I don't even think about it, I expect the three of you to protect me?" Zhu Zhen touched the giant panda's round head and said: "With your intelligence, you are not as good as a giant panda. "

"I'm also concerned about chaos." Deng Duo scratched his head in embarrassment: "I have nothing to do at home every day, and I get angry...Look, my tongue is covered with big bumps." As he spoke, he stuck out his tongue for him look.

"It's simple." Zhu Zhen put his arms around his shoulders and said, "I'll take you to a good place, and I'm sure your anger will disappear."

~~
The king led his generals to the Golden Lotus Court in Quzhong.

The Spring Festival promotion has already ended, and this is the afternoon with the least number of people, but the Jinlian Courtyard is still full of guests.It can be seen that Shen Liuniang still has two brushes.

It was the first time for Deng Duo to come back to this kind of place, looking at those orchids on the stage in low-fabric skirts, scratching their heads and posing there, the general who had already entered puberty blushed instantly.

"Your Highness..."

"Call me Sixth Son."

"Master, isn't it too early for us to come to this kind of place? Of course, I'm not saying we can't, the main reason is that we have no money." Deng Duo bent his back, turned his head to the opposite direction from the stage, but his eyes slanted , looking directly at the stage where the spring light suddenly appeared.

"Don't worry, according to the rules in the song, it's free for the first time." Wang Xinkou Hu Chai said.

"Really?" The general heaved a sigh of relief immediately, and secretly thought, there are at least [-] or [-] brothels in this song, and if I go back to another house, it can be said that it is the first time to visit.

At this time, Shen Liuniang heard the report and came out to meet His Highness.

"Mother Lu. My brother is in a bad mood today. Find a few understanding ladies and sisters to relieve him." Zhu Zhen ordered.

"Don't worry, my lord." Shen Liuniang covered her mouth and smiled, and invited a few female historians.

Yingying and Yanyan surrounded Deng Duo, the general immediately understood what it meant to be a hero and a beauty, and was taken into the box by several female officials who were dizzy.

Zhu Zhen and Shen Liuniang came to the small courtyard prepared for him and the third child.
