The eldest son Cao Rui also had a vassal state and did not go to the pot of Lu to make a living. Cao Pi was grateful from the bottom of his heart and was a little excited. In this way, he would have two vassal states? A hundred years later, Cao Rui would have to leave a place for himself in the ancestral hall, right? After all, he is his own father.

More importantly, he can be at ease with this. There are still hidden dangers in the country without a crown prince.

Cao Pi sat down again, waved his hand and shouted, "Serve the food."

The maid was waiting outside the hall. Hearing this, he came in one after another with a tray and delivered all kinds of delicacies to Sima Fu and others.

Cao Pi pointed to the plate containing the fish and said, "Shuda tastes this well. This is the unique electric fish in Lu State, a special dish."

Electric fish?

Sima Fu thought of Xun Yu's introduction and asked in surprise: "Is this the fish that Ying Gong said can discharge electricity? Isn't it very dangerous?"

Cao Pi smiled and said, "No matter how dangerous it is, it is just a beast. Could it be that Shuda has forgotten why I came to Nan Caozhou to be a vassal state. There are not many rubbers in Lu countries, and rubber insulation."

"Uh..." Sima Fu was speechless.

Cao Pi continued: "When I first came to Caozhou, I thought that southern Caozhou was all mountains. The exploration team discovered for many years that there was a rich plain outside the mountain. This was a place that the emperor had never arrived at that time."

His brother Cao Ang came to find new grain to grow, but when he found it, he went back, and there was no time to wander around Caozhou.

Cao Pi continued: "It's a pity that there are not many natives here and do not know how to cultivate. The plains are still wild forests. Lu State has worked very hard to open up a foothold. As for the big river where electric fish grows, it has only been cleared for twenty or thirty miles."

Sima Fu asked, "I heard that there are many ferocious beasts on both sides of the Linghe River, and some giant anacondas are thicker than trees. How can Your Highness clean up these? Can you tell us in detail to the foreign ministers?"

Cao Pi naturally would not let go of the opportunity to show off, and said proudly: "The anaconda and the black crocodile are easy to solve. Our rifles are not vegetarians. If they really can't do it, there are artillery. Such a large body can be seen from miles away. There is enough time to prepare to cause no major threats. The main things are difficult to deal with are poisonous insects such as poison dart frogs. But it's okay. My life tailor has made a lot of rubber protective clothing. No matter how toxic the poison dart frog is, it will be useless if it doesn't touch the skin. The same is true for electric fish. There is also a way to clean up electric fish. Throw some wild beasts in it and let it discharge it desperately. The electricity in the electric fish's body is also limited. It will take a period of recovery after it is released."

Sima Fu gave a thumbs up and exclaimed sincerely: "Awesome."

Xun Yu said Linghe so terrifyingly, he thought it was so bad, but he didn't expect that King Lu would solve it in an instant.

Think about it, no matter how cruel the wild beasts are, they can pass through human beings. As early as ancient times, the ancestors of the Chinese used walls and traps to grab a place of survival from the beasts and developed and strengthened the human race. The country of Lu has guns and cannons, and its productivity is far beyond the comparison of its ancestors. How could they not be able to deal with a small broken river?

Cao Pi smiled and said, "Try the electric fish, it tastes good."

Sima Fu picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth to chew it. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Yeah, it's not bad, the meat is delicious than the fish of the Great Wei."

Cao Pi said proudly: "Try the others, they are all specialties from our country of Lu. Linghe is a treasure river. There are as many as hundreds of fish. If you eat them for a year, you will not bring you a different version. Other ferocious beasts are also good. Let me give Shuda a snail to try another day."

Any animal that falls into the hands of the Han people will become ingredient. The only thing that has not changed to the ingredient is that the chef does not work hard enough.

Sima Fu's eyelids twitched wildly when he heard this, and he waved his hand and smiled, "Forget it, it's too scary."

The snare several feet long looks terrifying, let alone eat it, he really can't make the mouth.

Cao Pi smiled and said, "I won't say that after tasting it, come and drink."

The king and ministers of Lu and the envoys of the Great Wei Dynasty exchanged cups, but soon they were drunk. Cao Pi ordered people to send Sima Fu and his party back to the inn to rest.

In the absence of rushing to return to China, Sima Fu and his party stayed at Qufu with peace of mind.

In order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, Cao Pi personally took them to other places for investigation. It took only seven or eight years for the State of Lu to walk out of the mountains and come to the plain. The land was limited, with only five cities and clear boundaries. There was a forest next to the land. Although occasionally wild beasts rushed out of the forest and trampled on crops, how much could they be destroyed? The people on the border all had hunting rifles in their hands. As long as the beasts dared to come, they would deliver the dining table to you in minutes.

After wandering around the city, Sima Fu proposed to go to Linghe out of curiosity. Cao Pi happily agreed and took hundreds of guards wearing protective suits made of rubber and rode to Linghe.

The forest leading to the Linghe River has been cut down, and there are fertile fields on both sides of the road. Cao Pi and Sima Fu successfully came to the riverside. Looking around, the river water was clear and the water flowed smoothly. There was no way to see the crisis lurking in the river from the surface. The river was wide and the telescope could not see the head.

Cao Pi pointed to the opposite side of the river and said, "The population of Shandong is currently limited, and there is no need to develop the opposite side of the river. If you develop this place, you will know that there is such a river."

Sima Fu asked, "How long is this river?"

Cao Pi rolled his eyes and said, "How could I know this? I have only cleared twenty or thirty miles, and I have only cleared one side. I want to thoroughly explore the direction and scale of this river. We will not expect in this life."

Sima Fu sighed: "Water is the source of all things, and only with water can one survive. This river is definitely a treasure of Lu. The future development of Lu is unlimited."

Cao Pi expressed his agreement that Nan Caozhou is an independent continent after all, and if it continues step by step, it will definitely become a great country comparable to or even surpass the Great Wei in three or five hundred years. However, he dared not say this and changed the topic and said: "Do you want to go down the river and take a look?"

Sima Fu hesitated and said, "No, I can't swim."

As he was rowing a large ship about twenty meters long and three or five meters high in the distance of the river, Cao Pi said to his subordinates, "Let him come here" and explained: "There are too many dangers in the river, and the small boats are easily attacked by crocodiles, so the fishermen's boats are built larger."

The ship quickly sailed in front of everyone, but it was too big to rely on the shore, so it could only put down the deck and connect it to the shore.

Cao Pi and his party walked along the deck to the cabin and found that there were many fish lying in the boat, and a black crocodile with a length of nearly five meters long. Sima Fu said in shock: "How can you catch this thing? You can't kill it with one shot."

The captain of the fishing boat was a man in his thirties. He then saluted Cao Pi and explained: "This guy doesn't know that our bullets were soaked with anesthetics. In addition, the rubber fishing net made by the court is also very strong. If the black crocodile falls into the net, he will not escape and can only be dragged to death by the boat."

Cao Pi smiled and said, "Black crocodile leather is the best material for leather making. If you peel it off, you will give it to Brother Shuda."

Sima Fu was overjoyed and said, "Thank you Your Highness."

Crocodile skin is also valuable in the Wei Dynasty. It is not necessary to blind our colleagues if you take such a large one back.

He asked curiously again: "Is there any such electric fish?"

"Yes, please do here."

The captain made a gesture of inviting people and took everyone to the other side of the cabin, where there were five or six large water tanks with a length of more than two meters and a height of one meter five. The captain walked to a water tank and opened the lid and said, "Sir, please see."
