Seeing Zhou Yu showing anger and was about to go wild, Sun Ce was a little surprised even though he knew that he was familiar with him and had a joke.

Young people are prone to impulsiveness.

"Okay, okay." Sun Ce put his shoulders on Zhou Yu and patted him gently. "Actually, what you said is basically what I think. I am not sure about what I lack. It's just a dream."

Zhou Yu was both angry and funny. "I should feel relieved to say so. Thank you for your honesty?"

"That's not what, who is with us?" Sun Ce raised his eyebrows and laughed. "I have Gongjin, like Guan Zhong has Bao Shu, Emperor Gao has Zhang Liang, Han Xin, Emperor Guangwu has Deng Yu, how can I not be so heartless when I see you?"

Zhou Yu looked at Sun Ce and said, "Then tell me, what is your dream?"

Sun Ce frowned slightly and became serious. "Relieve the roots of chaos and build peace for all ages."

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed, staring at Sun Ce for a long time, seeing that Sun Ce's solemn expression and no slight slight joking, he raised his eyebrows and slightly bowed his head, but there was a little more worry in his eyes. "Are you talking about suppressing land annexation?"

"Although it's not successful, it's not..." Sun Ce was about to say a few more words, but when he saw Zhou Yu frowning again, he quickly stopped. "Okay, okay, the purpose is to solve the cycle of governance and chaos brought about by land annexation, but the means are not as simple and crude as suppressing the powerful, so you don't have to worry. I think the annexation of land by the powerful has brought great hidden dangers, but it is irreproachable. Who doesn't expect a big family to have a great career, and each generation is stronger than the next? This is just as natural as having to eat when hungry and having to wear clothes when cold. Simply suppressing is not advisable, and the facts prove that it is not feasible."

Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought you wanted Emperor Guangwu to save the field. So, are you trying to lead the Yellow Turbans south to reclaim their land, resolve their livelihoods, and avoid conflicts with the powerful Central Plains?"

"This is a good opportunity, I want to try it."

Zhou Yu's heart was turbulent. Although Sun Ce's idea was a bit naive, it enriched the strength of Jiangdong and controlled the river; took the time to cut off the population of the Central Plains, and cut off the firewood from the aristocratic families; led the Yellow Turbans to the south to explore the land gap caused by annexation; these three purposes were promoted layer by layer, one with a higher intention than the other, which was really commendable. Especially in the last point, it was already considered from the height of governing the country, and even he did not expect it. From the perspective of his vision, it was worth his praise and sighing.

No wonder I don’t know how he wants to fight for the world. My vision is too low. To fight for the world, of course, from the perspective of the world, just focusing on Jiangdong is enough.

But... I always feel a little unwilling. Zhou Yu thought for a moment and couldn't help asking: "Then yesterday you told Liu Pi and Gong Du that the north was getting colder, and that grain production was reduced and the harvest was inevitable. It was better to go to the south. Could it be that you said casually?"

Sun Ce was about to speak, but suddenly he found that Zhou Yu seemed relaxed but his eyes were very focused, and he couldn't help but feel shocked. This question was too advanced and did not meet the current level of knowledge. If it was not explained reasonably, Zhou Yu would find it difficult to believe his sincerity. Zhou Yu is not the kind of person who would call his lord when the protagonist is excited, otherwise he would not have delayed it until now without showing goodwill to the Yuan brothers. He swallowed the words he had to say, thought for a moment, and shook his head. "Gongjin, do you know that my eldest father is planting melons for a living?"

Zhou Yu nodded, his eyes unabashed.

"Compared with rice and wheat, melons are more sensitive to cold and warm. A cold wave may freeze all melons to death. This is the case with melons, and the same foods are the same. Look at the same rice planting in the Yangtze River, it seems to be just a river separated by a river, not much difference, but the yield is very different. If you expand the scope a little, for example, compared with the Qingyan area to Lingnan, you will understand more clearly how much the little change in temperature will have. Do you know that some places in Lingnan have ripening three times a year?"

Zhou Yu stared at Sun Ce and was shocked. Yesterday, he was wondering how Sun Ce had such an opinion. He read more books than Sun Ce and had never read such content. How did Sun Ce know? Now he understood that Sun Ce may not read more books than him, but Sun Ce's ability to observe things is worse than him. This is what he summarized from the actual situation, not what he said in any book.

No book has ever talked about such a theory. But Sun Ce was not a saint who was born to know. He was just more attentive than ordinary people.

Zhou Yu had already got the answer and wanted to stop it, but he couldn't help asking another question that had been circling in his heart for a long time. "How did you tell me that the earth is not square, but is as round as a chicken, so what book did you think of Zhang Pingzi's theory?"

Sun Ce secretly wiped his cold sweat. This pretending was indeed a technical job, and he would reveal his flaws if he accidentally revealed. With Sun Ce's level, how could he have the heart to read Zhang Heng's works? Lu Kang didn't know it, but Zhou Yu knew it clearly. He just didn't ask.

"I heard that was Zhang Pingzi's theory, but I haven't read it. The reason I believe that the earth is round is because of one of my own discoveries."

“What discovery?”

"Have you ever gone out of the sea?"

Zhou Yu shook his head, his eyes surprised. The earth was not square but round. It would be fine if he knew it after reading Zhang Pingzi's works, but Sun Ce came to the same conclusion because of one of his discoveries, which was shocking.

"On the sea, when the wind and waves are quiet, you look into the distance. The ship that goes away will slowly disappear. If the earth is flat, the ship should become smaller and smaller, and finally become a point, you can't see it, but it must be, right?"

Zhou Yu thought about it and nodded.

"But this is not the case. The ship will disappear before it becomes a point, and gradually disappear from bottom to top. First the hull, then the sails will sink. This is enough to show that the earth is not flat, at least in arc shape. If the edges of the shadows are round rather than straight during the lunar eclipse, it will be even more evident."

Zhou Yu took a breath and couldn't believe it. He originally thought that Sun Ce was making trouble and deliberately made things difficult for Lu Kang, just like Zhuangzi and Huizi debated whether people could know Yu Zhile. Now he realized that Sun Ce really thought that Lu Kang's knowledge was useless and could not solve practical problems, so he was too lazy to argue with Lu Kang.

It is certainly incredible that the earth is round, but what he admires even more is Sun Ce's meticulous observation and sharp thinking. Even if such a person does not read, he knows more about the truth than many scholars. It is normal for him to be unable to deal with it.

Zhou Yu's doubts dissipated, and now only admired. Some people are born smart, and Sun Ce is obviously this kind of person. Those who despise him because he is from a poor family and have not read many books will definitely be despised by him.

"Bo Fu can be said to be a person who is both smart and smart, and is like Yan Yuan."

"Haha, Gongjin is too rewarded." Sun Ce breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, the reaction was timely, which solved Zhou Yu's doubts. In the future, you must be careful not to underestimate the heroes of the world, otherwise you will be happy to show off and have a lot of flaws. It would be embarrassing to not be self-consistent at that time. However, taking this opportunity to psychologically impress Zhou Yu and destroy his sense of superiority is also worth a little proud.

At this time, a Yellow Turban soldier came over and bowed to Zhou Yu. "General Liu asked Zhou Lang to post a statement, and ask Zhou Lang for advice if you have any questions."

Zhou Yu and Sun Ce exchanged glances and smiled with understanding.
