Chapter 90: Gan Ning, You Go Be The Navy Commander

After a glass of wine, the atmosphere suddenly became warm. Lu Jun and Gan Ning had a cup of wine to relieve their suspicion, and the relationship between the two was instantly closer. At the same time, one praised the other party for not being surprised, and the other replied with self-humility that he was just being cowardly. Then the other person said that the other party was good at martial arts, and the other party then replied with self-humility that his martial art is not good, and that he needs to practice a few more years.

Lu Jun is not an idiot. He can feel Liu Bei's sincerity, and he is naturally willing to get closer to Liu Bei, let alone offend Liu Bei here. The biggest gap between the two is what Gan Ning did this time. Lu Jun was naturally very satisfied with Liu Bei disclosure of this matter, and Gan Ning himself had a deep affection for the man who was kidnapped by him, but was calm along the way. Now, he was greeted deliberately by the other party.

Soon Yu Jin, who forged the dilapidated copy, came over with the book and handed it to Chen Xi. Then Chen Xi smiled and took out the dilapidated copy, then handed it to Lu Jun. Chen Xi said, "Although Lu Jun said that for this matter you and Gan Ning have already settled their suspicions. But what Liu Bei said before is still valid. This gift is given to Lu Jun as thanks."

"Chen Xi doesn't have to be like this. As you said, Gan Ning and I have already settled our suspicions. Why would I need Chen Xi thanks, please take back this thing." Lu Jun didn't even look at the items in Chen Xi's hand, and turned down Chen Xi's gift.

"Hahaha, how can the gift be recovered? Besides, Ji Cai has not seen the true content of this thing." Saying this Chen Xi handed the entire book to Lu Jun. "Look at it again. I think the gift chosen by Liu Bei is suitable for talented people."

Lu Jun reached out and took the book. After opening it, he was surprised at first, and then read the stories in it. The more he read the stories, the more subtle he felt it was. Soon after reading the 18 short stories, he frowned and looked at Chen Xi. "Lu Jun is disrespectful. I will accept this gift. I also ask Chen Xi to pay attention to the second volume of this book. This kind of exquisite book should not be missing half of it!"

"It's easy to talk about." Chen Xi said with a smile, "I said that Liu Bei's gift must be suitable for Lu Jun."

"Hey, it's a good book on thirty-six strategies. It is written based on the author's life as a story, but I only have half of it." Lu Jun looked sad, but his hands were not slow at all. After wrapping it up with silk, he put it directly in his arms, for fear that Chen Xi would take it back because of his previous words.

"Haha..." Chen Xi laughed, he didn't say anything about it. He watched a TV series telling the story of Sun Bin's life, then he turned Sun Bin's life into thirty-six strategies. Other versions can't be remembered. This version is very clear, so he wrote it in accordance to the clear version.

But because of the way of describing the life story, others think of it as an autobiography without looking at the author.

During the banquet, the host and the guests enjoyed themselves. Naturally, the leftovers were cleaned up by the maid. Chen Xi shivered and ran home. It was obvious that the rain was caused by Lu Su's spiritual talents. As a result, there was a continuous rain. The rain was getting bigger and bigger, maybe the original warm sun and cool air of autumn will be forced into the coldness of autumn by Lu Su's rain.

As for Gan Ning, he naturally took Liu Bei as his lord, and Liu Bei also gave Gan Ning the official position of supervising the thief. There is no way, Liu Bei has limited official positions, and his current generals position are full. So Gan Ning has to get a position under Chen Xi. Under the name of the county guard.

When Chen Xi was about to arrange military affairs for Gan Ning, Lu Su smiled bitterly and gave Chen Xi a brief book. Chen Xi was a little dumbfounded. Gan Ning was actually a Shu county official, with a salary of six hundred stones, which was of higher rank than Lu Su.

"Did you make any mistakes!" When Chen Xi asked Lu Su, his brain had already thought of everything. He had already understood why the Three Kingdoms era did not value the origin of military generals, but the courage instead. And the best choice in courage was Gan Ning, but no one recruited him.

"It's true." Lu Su said with a wry smile, "Gan Ning has resigned for two years and nine months, but the Shu county still reserves his position as a county guard." Nothing else needed to be said, Lu Su had already indicated that the matter was clear.

"Oh, I see." Chen Xi nodded.

"How to deal with this? A conflict between us and Yizhou is not a good thing now. Even if the other party can't reach Taishan due to the distance, his ability will definitely not make us feel good, and he was also once a Zongzheng. Once the power of the royal family is activated, we will be in a very difficult position." Lu Su said.

"It's nothing. Call Gan Ning over here. This matter is easy to handle." Chen Xi didn't lift his head. Since things have changed, the original navy training had to be rearranged, fortunately Liu Yan is running out of time. Otherwise the whole plan needed to be cut down and refined, but the situation is better now.

"Oh, okay. That's the only way." Lu Su nodded and said. Compared with the current situation of Taishan, Gan Ning's importance is actually very low. After all, Taishan does not rely on the Yellow River or the Yangtze River. Now Yang Guang's Grand Canal had not been built, it was quite troublesome for the navy to do anything.

"Just call him." Chen Xi raised an eyebrow, "Don't say anything extra, Gan Ning is one of the important generals under Liu Bei, especially in the future. So I don't need you to say such things as giving up."

Lu Su sighed. Can he not see the importance of Gan Ning? After all, there are now Taishan cavalry and infantry training commander, but the whole puzzle is missing a navy, and for the southern expedition a navy is required.

Soon Gan Ning came over with an excited look, "I have seen the county guard. Dare to ask why the county guard has called for me."

"I will give you two tasks." Chen Xi raised his head and looked at Gan Ning, "First of all, this matter is very dangerous. It requires a wise and brave generals, and the water skills must good enough. They must also be able to lead soldiers..."

Before Chen Xi finished speaking, Gan Ning patted his chest and said, "County guard, just say anything you want. You can rest assured of my ability."

"Okay. You know that there are no big rivers or lakes near Taishan. It is very difficult to train naval forces. So I plan to let you go to the sea outside Qingzhou to train naval soldiers. As for ships, rest assured, the Lu family has a sea boat and the Mi family has the money." Chen Xi said quickly.

Then Chen Xi ignored Gan Ning's excitement and continued, "Because we don't have enough manpower, I won't arrange any other manpower for you. You can directly take your subordinates to the sea outside Qingzhou, where you are the leader and your subordinates are the backbone. Over there you can do whatever you want. I will also give you 20 million yuan! Give me a decent navy in a year."

"Chen Xi, a year is a little short. The Qingzhou people are all dry ducks... "Gan Ning was so excited that he had forgotten the etiquette and said Chen Xi instead of county guard. But the excitement calmed down. If he couldn't complete the military order, he would be dead. He wouldn't be so stupid.

"I didn't say that you are not allowed to wash the Yangtze River pirates and the Yellow River pirates. I told you clearly that you will be the leader. Even if you go to other states and counties, I have given you the greatest power! Go train the navy that I want!" Chen Xi roared directly. Did you not hear the meaning in the words? Are you an idiot? Do you want me to say things like whitewashing the pirates?
