A trace of deep anger flashed in Lu Su's eyes. Liu Jue was completely blackmailing him.

As far as he knew, the troops Liu Jue used this time were only 35,000. Even if Wenpin's 20,000 were included, how could he eat hundreds of thousands of shi of food in less than three months?

Are they all pigs?

And the five thousand gold can buy 70,000 to 80,000 shi of grain to feed an army of 20,000 for a year.

As for the one hundred shipwrights, the lion is even more open-minded, and with these shipwrights, Liu Jue will be able to build more ships, which will pose a greater threat to Jiangdong.

The total number of skilled shipwrights in Jiangdong is only over a thousand, but Liu Jue asked for a hundred, which is almost one-tenth of the number of shipwrights in Jiangdong.

Lu Su wanted to walk away, but he couldn't do it now. Jiangdong had no advantage, and Shanyue started to cause trouble again.

Therefore, Lu Su was angry, but he was also very afraid of Liu Jue, fearing that he would use force if he disagreed.

Now Jiang Dong is like a defenseless girl, Liu Jue can bully him as much as he wants.

I remembered what Sun Quan said, to make Liu Jue stop fighting at all costs, and then compete with Liu Jue when there is enough food and grass next year.

When Lu Su thought about it, the anger in his heart eased slightly and he became calmer.

"Liu Jiangxia was joking, but with only more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, how could they consume hundreds of thousands of dan of food in less than three months? Therefore, these one hundred shipwrights may be unreasonable. If you lose a warship, we are willing to give you dozens of ships."

"As for the pension for those wounded soldiers, Jiangdong is naturally willing to bear it, five thousand gold is five thousand gold! There is also the dowry of Wu Hou's sister and the gift of horses. This depends on Wu Hou's opinion."

Lu Su calmed down and wanted to argue with Liu Jue, but he saw Liu Jue looking around, obviously not listening to him.

Liu Jue's attitude made Lu Su helpless.

Liu Jue sneered in his heart, labor and management wanted to One hundred shipwrights are used to build sea-going ships. What do I want to do with those ships in Jiangdong? Do I, Jingzhou, still lack warships?

"We ourselves know the consumption of food and grass. Hundreds of thousands of stones are hundreds of thousands of stones. One hundred shipwrights cannot be missing!"

Now Liu Jue is the strong party, and Jiangdong is the weak party. Liu Jue can make any demands within a reasonable range, but Lu Su will have to worry about it.

Liu Jue sighed and said:"If Zijing cannot make the decision, so the matter can be postponed for a few days. Zijing can contact Sun Quan immediately and let him consider it carefully."

Lu Su was still a little angry when he heard the first half of the sentence, but when he heard the second half, he was really moved. He really wanted to discuss it with Sun Quan.

This Liu Jue is too difficult to deal with. He doesn't look like a prefect of a county. He was clearly a profiteer.

But thinking of Sun Quan's instructions, Lu Su thought it was better to forget it. If Liu Jue suddenly changes his mind tomorrow, it would be enough to give him a headache. It is better to resolve this matter as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams and lost things. We can take it back next year.

Lu Su thought of this and immediately gritted his teeth and said:"Okay, we will meet all your requirements, a compensation of five thousand gold, and a hundred skilled shipwrights. Liu

Jue reminded:"There is also a generous dowry and the war horses of my generals. How come you forgot?"

Lu Su said helplessly:"Liu Jiangxia, please don't worry, we will not forget it.""

"Haha, so good! Mr. Zijing is indeed a cheerful person!"Liu Jue said hello and laughed.

Lu Su was not in such a good mood. After thinking about it, he said to Liu Jue:"Liu Jiangxia, we have finished talking about important matters. I have one more thing that I want to discuss with you..

Liu Jue was moved in his heart and said,"If Zijing needs anything, just ask.""

Lu Su looked a little embarrassed, but he still said:"It's about Mrs. Qiao."

Da Qiao, this woman is so special, because she is Sun Ce's wife and Sun Shao's adoptive mother, and Sun Ce is the real founder of Jiangdong.

Sun Jian and Sun Quan both have to step back. After the battle was defeated, Sun Quan He admitted it; after losing Nanchang, Sun Quan admitted it; but only Da Qiao was captured, and Sun Quan could not ignore it.

Gan Ning set out from Pengze, challenged Jiangdong with his navy, easily broke through the Jiang defense, and then successfully captured Moling and Bu Zhao and Da Qiao were both captured.

If the news got out, it would be a huge blow to Sun Quan.

Zhou Yu was defeated at Chaisang, Taishi Ci was captured, Pan Zhang died on the battlefield, and Gan Ning invaded the hinterland of Jiangdong, and Sun Quan did not hide the news about the capture of Moling, but opened it to all Jiangdong high-level officials.

The purpose was to divert attention and strictly keep Da Qiao's capture secret, while also not attracting attention to Da Qiao.

So Lu Su came forward this time Come, in addition to negotiating peace with Liu Jue, I want to take Da Qiao back.

Liu Jue has accepted Xiao Qiao, and there is news from Jiangdong, so Sun Quan is very worried, fearing that Liu Jue will also attack Da Qiao.

Jiangdong II Qiao's reputation is too great. If Liu Jue really accepts Da Qiao, and then the news comes out, Sun Quan will be embarrassed to live. Sun Quan doesn't care whether Da Qiao is innocent or not, Sun Ce has been dead for so many years. , as long as this person comes back, even if Liu Jue gets involved, he can just pretend it didn't happen.

When Lu Su said this, he was already ready to be beaten.

"Xiao Qiao is living very well in my place. Now that Da Qiao and Mr. Qiao are here, their family has been reunited and they are very happy. Zijing, why do you need to break up their family?"Liu Jue shook his head and refused outright.

What a joke, how could he send Da Qiao back? Xiao Qiao was so obedient to him and he liked him so much. How could he send Da Qiao back to make Xiao Qiao feel sad? ?

Liu Jue refused so simply, which made Lu Su and Zhuge Jin feel confused.���, both frowned, could it be that Liu Jue already possesses Da Qiao?

"Sir, Da Qiao is just a beauty. There are so many stunning beauties in this world today. Why do you prefer Jiangdong Er Qiao? Lu Su asked with a frown.

"Haha, I will take two Qiao to the southeast, and we will be happy to share them day and night! I have little personal interest, so why should Zijing ask more questions?"Liu Jue said with a smile.

When Lu Su and Zhuge Jin heard that sentence, their faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and they cursed shamelessly in their hearts!

Liu Jue was amused in his heart and said:"Zijing went back and told Sun Quan, let's go back. Don't worry, I won't make a fuss about Da Qiao. We are almost a family after all. I won't embarrass him. I will treat Da Qiao as dead from now on."

Lu Su was speechless. In his opinion, Liu Jue's so-called guarantee was not worthy of belief at all. If the two sides fell out that day, would Liu Jue still remember what he said today?

It's just that Liu Jue's attitude was firm, and Lu Su felt If the fight continues, there will probably be no result. On the contrary, it will make Liu Jue unhappy, and all the previous efforts may be in vain.

Lu Su sighed. He felt so tired and didn't want to stay here anymore. , anyway, the big thing has been accomplished, let Sun Quan have a headache about Da Qiao.

As Liu Jue said, from now on, treat Da Qiao as dead, get an empty coffin and bury it, so that among the officials in Jiangdong , it will not cause serious impact

"In this case, Lu Su would not force others to do anything difficult."Lu Su stood up and cupped his hands, no longer obsessed with Da Qiao's affairs.

Seeing that Lu Su was so sensible, Liu Jue couldn't help but smile. At last, Lu Su didn't ask for trouble. Now that he has the advantage, how could he give Da Qiao to Let him go.

Now that the peace was reached, Lu Su immediately said goodbye to Liu Jue and walked outside with Zhuge Jin. Just as he walked out of the door, he heard Liu Jue shout:"Just a reminder, remember to ask Sun Quan to send his sister over early."."

When Lu Su and Zhuge Jin heard this, they almost fell down.
