Chapter 703

Cai Mao was afraid that Zhang Yu would equip the Navy, so he asked tentatively.

Zhang Yu immediately said that the navy is too expensive and does not make money, which is not cost-effective at all.

"Master Cai, don't mention the water army. Even the army, I've always had enough. I seldom use the army if others don't annoy me. But if others want to annoy me, I'll make a profit, but I'm not polite." Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Yu's meaning is very clear. He just wants to get rich and live in Jiangdong safely.

Of course, Zhang Yu would not be polite if someone sent him to the door.

In fact, Zhang Yu's kindness is just his own strategic need.

Cai Mao was suspicious and didn't believe it, but he thought it was possible.

Zhang Yu never took the initiative to attack others before, but if others want to hit him, they can only break his head and blood in the end.

Zhang Yu regards money as his life. Yes, he has a lot of money, but the army is not the most among the princes.

Zhang Yu can be said to be the richest of all the princes, but the size of the army is very small.

In fact, if you add up Jiangdong and Youzhou, Zhang Yu's army is not many, but the two places are too far apart to add up like this.

Cai Mao finally chose to believe Zhang Yu.

"Well, if Lord Zhang can build a good enough warship, I'll take it all." Cai Mao also said gallantly.

All inclusive is impossible, but Cai Mao estimates that this chapter feather production is limited, and it will not be able to build many ships at that time.

Even if Zhang Yu made more, he would set up more water forces to go down the Yangtze River and control the whole Yangtze River Basin. It's hard to imagine the great benefits.

In this way, Cai Mao has no discomfort.

Zhang Yu laughs in his heart that it's better to buy than to build, and it's better to rent than to buy. In later generations, it's Lao Mei's trick to deceive others.

And Zhang Yu is to cheat Cai Mao, let him pay to help his own shipbuilding industry.

The two did not continue to discuss business. It was better for them to talk about unimportant things.

After the talk, Cai Mao gave a grand banquet to Zhang Yu.

Jingzhou also has a huge fleet, but it is not so fast to temporarily transfer.

However, Zhang Yu has his own fleet and is on his way.

He didn't arrive all the time because Zhang Yu wanted to blackmail Liu Biao. If Liu Biao knew that Zhang Yu wanted to leave long ago, I'm afraid he wouldn't give Zhang Yu so much money.

Therefore, when Zhang Yu left Xiangyang, he sent someone to inform the fleet. It took them a few days before the fleet set out. Now it's not so fast.

After Zhang Yu knew that Cai Mao was guarding him, he didn't have much contact with CAI Mao. He was busy with his own affairs.

Cai Mao has just finished his work and has a lot to do.

Zhang Yu lived in Jiangxia.

In the past few days, Zhang Yu is also active and secretly arranges a lot of people.

These people gradually become Cai Mao's people in different places through different channels.

According to Zhang Yu's own statistics, there are more than 400 people who have been arranged recently, and many more are on their way.

Other places are important, but a big change is taking place in Jingzhou. This change can be used by itself and a large number of people can be put in.

A few days later, when the fleet arrived, Zhang Yu and they could finally go back.

When I went back, the team was huge, with a lot of boxes.

Seeing Cai Mao off was also a twinge of envy. These are all wealth, a lot of wealth.

More than 500 million.

This 500 million wealth, anyone will be envious, but his master is Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu has 100000 soldiers.

No one dares to come up with their idea.

The use of a huge fleet, the Yangtze River is extremely crowded.

Cai Mao looked at Zhang Yu's huge fleet and lost his mind. He thought a lot.

If one day Zhang Yu wants to fight for hegemony and control the whole Yangtze River, he doesn't know whether he can resist it.

But now we don't have to think so far. As long as he controls Jingzhou, he will have enough wealth to build a desperate water army.

Cai Mao has this confidence.

However, he did not know that Zhang Yu had a broader vision and had been preparing for the Navy for a long time.

Zhang Yu and his crew had been loading for a day. The main reason was that the dock was too small. They could only dock three ships at a time, and many people and goods could only wait on the shore.

Finally, after the shipment, Zhang Yu set out with infinite emotion.

On the ship, Zhang Yu put out tables and chairs on the deck, and entertained several people on it.

It's just very cold on the deck in winter. Fortunately, Zhang Yu has wine. Otherwise, who else will blow cold wind with him, even though it's blocked by reinforced screens and so on.

"Here's to everyone." Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Yu invited the Xiahou brothers as well as Cao ang, Yu Jin and Dian Wei, while Han Dong and Xia Dong were in front and behind, looking after the whole fleet.

The Xiahou brothers, Cao ang and Yu Jin have never seen such a huge ship, and the fleet of these huge ships. They are filled with emotion.

Several people had a toast.

"Two Xiahou brothers and brother Cao, what do you think of my fleet? We can transport 100000 troops at a time. As long as it's along the coast, it's where we do business. " Zhang Yu said.

Brother Xiahou and Cao ang don't think so. I'm afraid the place where the fleet can reach is the place where you attack.

But it doesn't matter if you think about it. Although the fleet can transport 100000 troops at a time, it can raid many places.

But 100000 troops mean huge supplies. If there is no supplies along the road, it means going deep alone. What can 100000 troops do.

Cao Cao is far away from the sea, so there is no need to worry.

At the same time, they can't understand Zhang Yu. Although they have strong strength, they just want to do business to make money and don't want to make progress.

They don't know that Zhang Yu has the largest territory and the largest population. He is only distributed overseas, and Youzhou and Jiangdong are cut apart. In fact, Zhang Yu has more territory and population than all the princes.

A few people simply talked about some things, and then Zhang Yu said: "it seems that Cao Cao is not in a hurry to redeem you. Then you can stay in Jiangdong. When Cao Cao wants to redeem you, we will have a good talk."

The three men rolled their eyes at Zhang Yu, and it was Zhang Yu's lion who opened his mouth.

At the earliest, Cheng Yu sent someone to contact Zhang Yu, but Zhang Yu's asking price is too high. Cheng Yu judged that they are not in danger, so he did not negotiate with Zhang Yu for the time being.

They don't have so much money, because they are faced with a two-line war, all kinds of materials are in short supply, and money is not enough to spend. At this time, there is no way to redeem the three of them.

Now Cao Cao is not able to redeem them, although the war has just ended.

However, Cao Cao suffered heavy losses and needed to be restored.

Now his money for recruiting troops is collected everywhere, where can he accept Zhang Yu's blackmail.

A few people were drinking and chatting on the ship, but the time passed quickly.
