I do research in ancient times

Chapter 204

Is this business to be done?

ha?There is no need to ask, is there any business in the world that is more profitable than this? !

The chief guard's mind was still stuck on the pattern of the shore cannon, and he secretly scolded the bastard for being stingy, and he would not lose a piece of meat even if he, a real father, looked at it more, why did he wipe it so clean!

This cylinder-like thing is said to be used to throw iron balls, so it is probably similar to a trebuchet?

However, with the shrewdness of a bastard, Mo Zong would definitely not agree to fool him with a trebuchet. It might be interesting to let him promise the big cylinder of the Liushan Mine.

"Do it! Why don't you do it! If you don't make money, you're a fucking bastard!"

Feng Dahu slapped his hands.

"Take it to Liushan Mine, and I will find it for him if I don't have enough money! Although your father and I are short on cash and money, we have mines and materials, and if someone sends us, we will definitely be able to manage enough!"

Having said that, he paused and rubbed his hands with a smile.

"Son, did Kid Ning say, when will we be able to open the saltworks? When will we be able to build some guns? Is it too late for us to send troops to Bailukou?"

Feng Kai nodded.

"I'm going to discuss this with my father."

"According to Feidi's plan, it will take some time for the coastal artillery to take shape. After the finished product comes out, it needs to be adjusted and tested to teach the soldiers to use it. What I mean is that before the coastal artillery is built, don't send troops to Bailukou for the time being."

"We don't have a boat. Although we can attack Bailukou along the bank of the Wuzhi River, the Yesaha people entrenched in the river mouth are not idiots. They have built fortifications by the sea, otherwise He Yue would not have stayed still."

"What I'm worried about is that if there is no shore artillery, He Yue may take advantage of our attack or take advantage of our weak foothold and forcefully occupy Bailukou."

Speaking of this, Feng Kai paused, his eyes sharp.

"When the three kings stood side by side, we didn't express our position. In name, we didn't side with each other. Now it's even worse to tear ourselves apart with He Yue's family as soon as we come up, and make an enemy for nothing."

"However, if we have already occupied Bailukou, and the He Yue family wants to pick peaches again, then we have to weigh the power of the shore artillery."

These words were too true, and Chief Protector Feng immediately imagined the corresponding scene.

He led the frontier army across mountains and ridges, ate and slept in the open, and fought with the Xihu people for [-] rounds. As a result, He Yue's dog thief easily bypassed Heifeng Mountain by boat.By the time he arrived at Bailu Port Beach with a gray head and a face full of land, He Yue's dog thief had already started to lead people to set up a pot to burn sea salt!

"Fuck the son of a bitch!"

Feng Da Duhu yelled and yelled, and walked around the study in anger, as if the previous imagination had come true.

"No, I can't suffer this loss. I don't want to let that Heyue dog thief take advantage of it!"

He stopped suddenly and turned to stare at his son.

"Even if you really want to attack Bailukou, you have to sneak in secretly, and the battle will be resolved quickly. There must be no delay!"

"That's natural."

Feng Kai nodded.

"If you want to take Bailukou, you have to make a plan and attack before it is ready, so only father knows about this matter, and the coastal artillery and saltworks must be kept secret."

"During this period, my Yongxi Guanfeng family must remain the same as before, and there must be no abnormalities, so as not to alarm others."

Hearing what he said, Feng Daduhu frowned suddenly.

He smacked his mouth.

"It's easy for others to say, it's your third aunt, she has been jumping up and down in the past two days to arrange marriage for the second girl, and she wants to marry the second girl to the Lu family."

"Lu Family?"

Hearing these two words, Feng Kai's eyes suddenly became serious.

"Is it the branch of the Lu family mentioned earlier? Third aunt hasn't given up yet?"

"Humph."

Duhu Feng snorted coldly.

"Don't mention it. Not only did that girl not give up, but she became even more arrogant."

"During the time you were outside, the family in Qijiang City suddenly sent someone to discuss marriage, saying that they wanted to marry our girl for a branch of the family."

"Your cousin was sober-minded, so he refused on the spot, but your third aunt, who jumped up and down for several days, even secretly gave her the second girl's birthday, and insisted on this marriage!"

Speaking of this, Feng Da Duhu sighed, with a look of eating shit on his face.

"I don't know what the Lu family has poured into your third aunt's brain, but she just keeps talking about it, and she dares to send the second girl over to this apparently unclear marriage!"

"The family in Nanjun, I used to think that they are not good birds! Seeing that they are indifferent to fame and fortune, no one can beg for salt from their fingers. The price of salt is so high, who is behind the fire?!"

"If there is no ancient waterway of the Nanjiang River and two outlets to the sea, how can Lu Tao enjoy the wind, the snow, the moon, the flowers, birds, fish and insects every day? Why can't he drink the wind and eat the sand in the border town like us?!"

Seeing that his father was about to start swearing again, Feng Kai interrupted him calmly, and brought the topic back to the right track.

"Father, why did the Lu family marry us suddenly? But what kind of news did you get?"

Thinking of the news he heard in Tiantiekeng, Lu Shiji personally went to the grassland to search for a craftsman to imitate Mo Dao. Most of this marriage was unsuccessful in finding Mo Dao.

He thought for a while, and briefly told Da Duhu what he and Ning Fei had seen and heard in Sanyazi Mountain, hiding the matter of the Lu family's twins in the middle, and only said that the Lord of Hexa brought the people of the Lu family to find the heavenly craftsman Nada ordered him to imitate the Modao of the frontier army.

Chief Protector Feng shattered the table on the spot and scolded the Lu Brothers as hypocrites with ulterior motives.After scolding, he was still not relieved, so he rushed to the yard and punched him again.

"What did I say?! This Lu is his mother's bad bastard! He still wants to hook up with the barbarians. Damn Lu Tao wants to commit crimes and help the barbarians invade the border and slaughter the people. The son of a bitch lacks virtue !"

"no!"

Most of the guards clapped their hands.

"The second girl can't get married! This is not a human being, but a nest of tigers, leopards and wolves. If the second girl is gone, she won't be swallowed by others!"

Feng Kai didn't have any objection to his father's conclusion.

Regardless of the righteousness of the family and the country or the blood relationship, the second cousin should not marry into the Lu family.Don't say that the Lu family has different intentions about this marriage, and their intentions are not pure; sooner or later, their Feng family will confront the Nanjun Lu family. At that time, how will the second cousin deal with herself?

"father."

Feng Kai thought about it.

"Can grandma come forward and refuse this marriage directly?"

Although the parents are in charge of the children's marriage, the third uncle has passed away long ago, and the third aunt is obsessed with the false name of the family. The only person who can hold her down is her grandmother.

Chief Protector Feng also had the same idea, but the father and son both underestimated the third lady's determination.While everyone was busy with disaster relief, the third lady quietly completed the process from acceptance to application period.Now that the wedding date has been set, the only thing left is to send the daughter off to get married.

"What?!"

Feng Dadu was so angry that his forehead hurt.

"When the hell did this happen?! Did that bitch want to turn the world upside down, thinking that no one in the Feng family can control her anymore?"

"Third brother's widow, what do we brothers do?"

The father of the third cousin sneered.

"Didn't you see that Mrs. Wang held the spirit tablet of the third brother, cried and knelt in front of the old lady's door for most of the night, and then passed out after rolling her eyes, and woke up looking for death and life without stopping, just like We're going to take her life."

"The old lady asked her to return the bride price and get back the second girl's birth certificate, but she refused desperately, and said that she would rather go home than keep her daughter's noble way, and even clamored that we wanted to take the second girl away good marriage, bullying their orphans and widows.”

"what is it now?"

Feng Dahu stared.

"Just let this shrew make trouble?"

"Of course it can't."

Uncle Feng Tang shook his head.

"The old lady wants to let her go back to the Wang family. The second girl's surname is Feng, and the family affairs are decided by the elders of Feng's family. The Wang family cannot make random arrangements."

"The third sister-in-law hanged herself that night after hearing what she had heard. Fortunately, she was rescued in time. After waking up, she kept repeating that she could go back to the Wang's house, but the second girl must enter the Lu's house, otherwise she would not be safe if she was a ghost."

"So the second girl..."

Having said that, Uncle Fengtang paused, with a complicated expression on his face.

It's been a trouble until now, and he really feels sorry for the third brother's daughter.

With her father gone and her mother a stingy shrew, it's hard for the second girl to grow into a calm and peaceful personality.

The girl who has reached the age of ji, elegant and bright, respectfully kowtowed three times to the old lady, and said calmly that she was willing to marry.

"Chang Wan's father passed away early, and there is no way to repay her mother's kindness in giving birth, but to fulfill her lifelong wish."

"Even if you marry someone who is not human, you won't get the support of your family?"

Feng Kai sat in front of the desk, calmly watching the second cousin in front of him.

"I've told you about the Lu family. You should be aware of the family's attitude. Without the Feng family behind you, it's impossible for you to live well in the Lu family."

"My Feng family has been loyal for generations. I don't know how many ancestors died in fighting with Hu Qi. Almost every generation has a blood feud with Hu Qi."

"Even the third uncle, he once guarded Wayaokou as a scholar, holding an arrow in his left shoulder for a day and a night, until the reinforcements arrived, he was injured and returned to the city."

"And the family you married into is Hu Qi's big accomplice this time. The Lu family didn't come here for you, Feng Changwan, they came here for profit. Your mother's insistence on getting married is a violation of the family's position. .After you pass the door, it is impossible for the family to give you more support. You should think about this clearly."

"I know."

Feng Changwan clasped his hands together, slowly raised his head, his gaze was firm.

"I am the daughter of the Feng family, and Feng Shuyan is my own father. He fought the enemy to the death and was loyal all his life. Naturally, I cannot lose his reputation."

"It's just that my mother has been obsessed with it for many years. If her wish is not fulfilled, she is afraid that she will immediately seek death. My mother has raised me for many years. I can't be the one who forced her to death."

Having said that, Second Miss Feng paused, her expression calm and firm.

"Brother, I know you are thinking of me, and you don't want to see me marry someone who is not human, and waste my life."

"But marrying into the Lu family is probably my destiny, and I have to go. But I know my identity, what to do and what not to do. I only hope that one day, if I am lucky enough to survive Back home..."

Having said that, she paused, but still couldn't help expressing her thoughts.

"I know... in this world, there is a place where even if a woman's half life is not going well and is rough and difficult, as long as she is willing to endure hardships and work hard, she can still gain a foothold with her skills and support herself and her family."

"I am the daughter of Feng Shuyan, with the blood of a military household, Chang Wan Pu Wei's body, and I will not betray the family. I only hope that I can go to that free land, Chang Wan will be satisfied."

The girl's expression was extremely determined, like the young scholar who stood at the entrance of Wayao more than ten years ago, his voice was exhausted, his white clothes were stained with blood, but he still stood on the top of the city.

Feng Kai was slightly moved, knowing that his cousin had made up his mind, he didn't want to persuade her anymore, so she just nodded.

"You choose the road yourself, so you can only walk on it yourself."

"Brother can promise you that if one day you don't lose your father's name and don't betray your family, you can go to that free land and live according to your heart."

"Brother, you will do what you say, I hope you can also remember what you said today, and you will not bear your father's name."
