Chapter 32 Preparation (Part 2)
Old Xu opened it with curiosity and looked at it for only a few glances, his eyes lit up. He suddenly closed the scroll, "This, is this thing really possible to make this thing? This is comparable... I will show it to Gao Laowu immediately, don't worry, if he doesn't come, I will sing his house. This is the thing we craftsmen want most in our life, and it is famous all over the world." As he said that, he ran out without even looking back.
Zhang Gui stood aside and wanted to see what was drawn, but Lao Xu took it very carefully and he didn't see it. Now he saw him running out and asked Zhang Shun, "Lao Lao, what is it on it, why is he so excited?"
Zhang Shun smiled and said indifferently: "The things above are just an idea now. It is useless to say it is too early."
Zhang Gui frowned unnaturally, "What's so mysterious."
Zhang Shun immediately heard the unhappy meaning and couldn't help but feel funny. Zhang Gui had changed a little since he came back. He always thought about it and asked something that he didn't care about before. He told him that he didn't understand and didn't tell him, which made Zhang Shun a little annoyed.
Zhang Shun originally didn't care much about Zhang Gui's opinion, and he could understand why Zhang Gui became like that. After all, he was the real boss of this team before, and the creator and backbone of this team. But now he has become a nominal boss. The third brother Zhang Shun is truly remembered, but he himself has become a reckless man who can only charge in the battle. This is a big blow to Zhang Gui's psychology.
But everything needs to be a measure. You can't be unreasonable because you were a boss, and now you even feel that everyone owes you what you do. This will only make you dislike others and eventually be abandoned. Unfortunately, Zhang Shun cannot explain this truth to Zhang Gui, and there is no suitable person among them to explain it to him, so Zhang Shun has become a headache.
"Brother, have you done everything I told you before? If those kilns are ready, I will organize people to cook things immediately. Now we need those things very much."
Zhang Gui rolled his eyes and said, "I really don't understand, third brother, why are you always staring at those broken things now? Yesterday I said I wanted to build a house, today I said I wanted to burn lime, tomorrow I would burn a jar, what do you want to do? Should we kill the Tartars?" Zhang Gui was immediately unhappy when he mentioned this. Everyone has his own affairs, but he was responsible for building a house and other strength. The work was no longer big. It was mainly because people felt that it seemed quite low-level at first glance. This was what he was most reluctant to do.
Zhang Shun smiled slightly, "Brother, we have nothing now. If we don't hurry up, then when the Tartars arrive, we will have to wait for death. I'm doing everything now to kill the Tartars, you..."
"Three, stop talking." Zhang Gui waved his hand impatiently. "I happened to have something to tell you. Yesterday I got a news from Zhang Heng and Hunjiang Long Yutao. They are now in the waters near Fancheng and are preparing to set up a joint conference. I want to go there to see if they can be recruited under our command. If they succeed, maybe our strength will increase greatly."
"When is it? Why don't I know?" Zhang Shun smiled quite playfully.
"You have so many things every day, and I didn't let them tell you that these are trivial matters, just go and do it."
Zhang Shun thought for a while, "Brother, do you have any opinions on me? If there is one, just ask. We brothers and two of us will come out together. Now the whole family is only two of us. If there is something in my heart, it will be bad."
Zhang Gui's face changed significantly, and he immediately became more harmonious. "Three brothers, what are you saying? You don't know yet, you will charge in the battle. Now I can't get involved in these things you do, so I feel that I'm quite redundant and want to find something to do. What's more, these two families are famous water bandits in our country. The two of them have seven or eight thousand brothers together, so they are all good players on the water. If they can be kept on our side, then can't we kill more Tartars?"
"Do you trust them?"
"What's there to do you mean? Zhang Heng is still our brothers who have not yet had the fifth match. I have dealt with Yu Tao before, and I am also a man. They have all suffered losses from the Tartars and have killed Tartars before. There should be no problem."
Zhang Shun had no impression of the people Zhang Gui said, but he also knew that these people could not change any historical process whether they fought for the Song Dynasty or surrendered to the Tartars. But if these people could really fight for themselves, it would be a great good thing, but the question is whether these people are reliable? Zhang Shun was very clear about the character of those thieves. It is hard to say how much feelings he has for the country and nation, but he attaches great importance to interests. What if he really does play tricks? His elder brother has indeed been a little annoying recently, but he is his elder brother no matter what.
"Brother, this matter is a bit strange. I have also heard of these two pirate teams. They have worked with the Tartars a few years ago, but they have done nothing in the past three years. Not to mention harassing the Tartars, they have also snatched the Song army's logistics troops. You can't not know these things. Why do I think it's a bit strange to me to hold an alliance at this time?"
Zhang Gui snorted coldly, "What's strange? They are all men from the world, and they all have a bloody hatred with the Tartars. Why is it strange to fight the Tartars with us at this time? The Tartars' naval army has become more and more powerful in the past three years, and they have tried it, but they have lost too much each time, so they have to stop. As for the logistics of looting the Song army, hehe, speaking of it, some Song army's style is no different from that of the Tartars, and they are even more powerful. It is not unreasonable to have conflicts between the two sides.
.You don’t need to worry about this matter. I’ll just go there myself. Then I’ll bring you back thousands of new forces, which can be considered as giving us some efforts. Look at these people, when they hear that there are no reinforcements, they all throw us in this place like their parents. Don’t you want us to fend for ourselves? You don’t even give us a single reinforcement. If we didn’t bring a lot of things back, we can’t even eat now. If we don’t think about ourselves, then we will be completely finished.”
