Chapter 29: The Great Leap Forward in Youzhou (III)

After the three-day meeting ended, Yan Bin left behind Yan Zheng, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and Ding Feng. While Yan Bin opened a businessman certificate to Yan Zheng for the Youzhou Governor's Office, he instructed Yan Zheng to pay attention to the news from Dian Wei, Guan Hai, Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, Liao Hua and others, and brought them to Youzhou as much as possible. After Yan Zheng left, Yan Bin took out the warship structure diagram he drew.

Gan Ning and others were surprised when they saw the size marked on the picture. Generally, the largest tower ship on the Yangtze River was only 30 meters long and 4 or 5 meters high. The warships Yan Bin wanted to build were actually 120 meters long, 20 meters high and 25 meters wide. Moreover, the ships at that time were all single-masts, and the warships designed by Yan Bin had three masts.

Gan Ning quickly said: "I'm afraid that the warship of a lord is not built. And even if it is built, the ship is so huge, it must not be fast and flexible enough, which is not conducive to the battle on the board."

Yan Bin laughed: "Xingba, your idea is wrong. You guys think about it. If you have strong long-range strike capabilities, why do you still have to fight on the sidelines? Before the enemy's warships got on you, they were broken into pieces? Besides, the warships I designed were not as slow and dull as you imagined. You know why I changed your navy to the navy. In the boundless sea, such warships are just small boats. You have to change your thinking. You are no longer naval troops fighting only in the Neijiang River, but navy that opens up the sea front for the Han Dynasty. Now I can't say how you should fight next, but you have to start exploring yourself, and of course you can also discuss with me. Xingba, after you go back, you will first find some old ship workers to show them my drawings. After the port is built and the logging is over, I will go to your place to help you build the ship."

While Yan Bin and Gan Ning and others were chatting, Yan Yan and his wife Sun from the inner palace were also talking. Yan Yan did not leave for Zhuo County immediately after the meeting, but wanted to get together with Yan Bin for a few more days. After the three-day meeting, Yan Yan saw Yan Bin's leadership ability and the scene of his subordinates full of talents, and was very happy. He said to Sun: "Madam, we really have a good son. I originally thought that this kid was older than me at such a young age, and it was based on his luck and his majesty's favor. In the past few days, I have witnessed that this kid is indeed talented. His civil and military officials are also a temporary hero. Although some of them are still young, it can be seen that they will be pillars of the country in the future."

"Master, yes, my son is now a big official and has a great reputation. Two days ago, the Zhen family in Jizhou and the Mi family in Xuzhou asked someone to send me a message to me, wanting to become a family with us. I saw that you father and son have been busy with meetings, so I hadn't had time to tell you that."

"Oh, if this happens, Bin'er will be 11 soon. Although he cannot get married now, marriage should be considered. However, with Bin'er's talent and future development prospects, we cannot arrange his marriage. Otherwise, the couple will have little incompatibility in the future, which will affect Bin'er's future. Although the Zhen family and Mi family are wealthy families, low social levels may not be beneficial to Bin'er's future. So, let me tell Bin'er and listen to his own opinions."

Diao Chan, who passed by Yan Yan and his wife's bedroom, heard the conversation between Yan Yan and his wife without missing a word.

The next morning, Diao Chan came to dress Yan Bin on time to fold the quilt. Diao Chan always smiled and looked like a cute person, but today she was frowning and her eyes were red. Yan Bin asked strangely: "What's wrong with Diao Chan? Are you feeling uncomfortable or are someone bullying you?"

Diao Chan shook her head quickly and said no. Yan Bin couldn't help but wonder even more, asking Diao Chan why she was unhappy.

Diao Chan had no choice but to tell Yan Bin the conversation between Yan Yan and his wife that she heard yesterday, and asked Yan Bin pitifully: "Young Master, you won't want me after you get married, right?"

"How could that happen? I won't want you no matter whether I get married or not. Don't worry. But you are 13 years old this year and you will get married in a few years. It's impossible for you to be by my side for a long time."

When Diao Chan heard Yan Bin's words, tears came down. She sobbed and said to Yan Bin: "I don't want to get married. I'll be satisfied as long as I'm with my son. Please, don't marry me to others. I'll stay by my son's side for the rest of my life."

"How can a woman not get married? Besides, if she doesn't have a biological child, she will have a miserable old age."

But no matter what, Diao Chan just shook her head. In the end, Diao Chan was anxious when Yan Bin said it, and asked weakly with a blushing face: "If I have to get married, can I marry the young master?"

Looking at Diao Chan, one of the four beauties in front of him, crying and shouting to marry him, Yan Bin was in a good mood. "Yes, as long as I talk to my parents, they will not disagree. But if you become my wife, you must listen to me in everything. Are you willing?"

"I'm willing, I just listen to the young master now."
