The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 347
On the one hand, Dongfang Sheng sent Tuobahan and a team of Qingqi posing as Xianbei tribesmen to Youzhou to investigate, and on the other hand, he stayed in Bohai County and various forces in the firmly occupied areas of Leling Kingdom.

At the same time, Dongfang Sheng also got the latest news about Cao Cao. He sent Zhong Yao, the school captain of Sili, to deal with Guo Yuan and Gao Gan, and surrounded Li Yang without launching an attack for the time being.

"If that's the case, I'll wait until you touch me before doing it." Dongfang Sheng tapped on the table with his fingers.

In the following time, Dongfang Sheng sent someone to Yizhou to call Gan Ning over. In recent years, Gan Ning has gained a lot of experience in training the navy. Dongfang Sheng wanted him to be in charge of the construction of the navy. At the same time, Dongfang Sheng also paid a lot of money to recruit him. shipwright.

If you want to sail on the sea, you must have a strong enough ship. Although Dongfang Sheng paid a lot of money to recruit shipbuilders, no one came to apply for the job after several days.

Until Gan Ning came to Bohai County, Dongfang Sheng didn't recruit many boatmen, and the people he hired didn't have much skills, they only knew basic carpentry.

As soon as Gan Ning arrived in Bohai County, he went directly to Dongfang Sheng. It happened that Dongfang Sheng was worried about not being able to find a good shipbuilder.

"I heard that there was a shipbuilder in Bohai County whose ancestors built seagoing ships for the first emperor. Their family has been building ships for generations, and it is said that they still have the shipbuilding blueprints of the first emperor." Sheng took a cup of tea from the table and poured it directly.

"Oh, there is such a person, why didn't he respond when I posted the notice? My salary is not low." Dongfang Sheng said a little depressed.

Gan Ning leisurely pulled a stool and sat down, "I have inquired before I came. This guy is called Zhang Gao. He builds ships for pirates, so no matter how much the master pays, he won't dare to come."

"Oh, where does he live?" Dongfang Sheng was not disappointed, but even more interested, "Let's find him together."

"I seem to have heard that he lives in Nanpi County, but it may be difficult to find someone with such a background in a county." Gan Ning said with some helplessness.

"Isn't it easy to find in Nanpi County?" Dongfang Sheng chuckled and said, "Go change your clothes, and we'll go visit that Zhang Gao together later."

Gan Ning turned around and left a little dissatisfied. He didn't believe that Dongfang Sheng could find Zhang Gao so quickly. You must know that Zhang Gao built ships for pirates, so he can be regarded as a member of the underworld. Ask such a person who is in the government There will be no results, because the heroes of the green forest are walking in the dark and cannot be exposed. Once the government knows their whereabouts, what awaits them is going to prison to eat.

But who is Dongfang Sheng?For him, he has 360 ways to find Zhang Gao in Gan Ning's mouth.

So when Gan Ning deliberately delayed his arrival for an hour to take care of Dongfang Sheng's face, Dongfang Sheng smiled and told Gan Ning that it was time to go see Zhang Gao.

After coming out of the Yamen District, Dongfang Sheng rushed to Lizheng District, which was the residential area at that time, with ease.

There is not a lot of people in the residential area. In the past few days, because Dongfang Sheng has brought 4 people to settle in, it has more or less affected the local people.

Dongfang Sheng stopped, stopped an old man who was walking slowly, and said, "Old man, do you know where Xu Gao lives?"

The old man stopped and looked Dongfang Sheng up and down. When he found that Dongfang Sheng was wearing high-quality materials and a good temperament, he suddenly smiled and said, "Young man, is this your first time here? I just have nothing to do. You go to Xu Gao's house."

"Thank you old man." Dongfang Sheng cupped his hands in thanks.

The corner of Gan Ning's mouth twitched when he heard Xu Gao's name, but he wisely kept silent and followed Dongfang Sheng without speaking.

Dongfang Sheng's polite appearance put the old man in a good mood, and he immediately opened the chatterbox and said, "This Xu Gao is from a wealthy family. Don't think he lives in Lizheng District, but he can buy those rich people in the city several times." Big house."

"Then why does he want to live here instead of a big house?" Dongfang Sheng asked with 'pretentious' interest.

"Hehe, you don't know, I just said that, after you hear it, don't say I said it." The old man said in a low voice: "Everyone on our side knows that Xu Gao is a gangster. But he is quite righteous, so everyone didn't expose him."

"Hey, he's still a grand thief." Gan Ning was a little excited. He was doing the same thing in Yizhou back then, and he called himself 'Jinfan Bandit'. So when he heard the old man say that Xu Gao was a hero in the green forest, Gan Ning couldn't help it. Stop interrupting.

The old man took a deep look at Gan Ning and said, "Young man, listen to my advice, it's not easy to be a green forest hero."

"Understood, old man." Gan Ning immediately said, shrunken like an eggplant beaten by frost.

The old man continued his topic and kept talking about Xu Gao with Dongfang Sheng and the others along the way. During this period, there were also some other interesting anecdotes. Even if an old man lives at the bottom, he will inevitably experience what you can’t. Dongfang Sheng and Gan Ning didn't find it boring during this trip.

At the same time, Dongfang Sheng also learned some basic information about Xu Gao through the old man. Xu Gao is about 30 years old, his parents are gone, he has a wife and children, and he is righteous but a bit lustful.

The old man stopped and pointed to a house in front of him and said, "Here, this is Xu Gao's home."

Dongfang Sheng smiled slightly, reached out his hand and took out a five baht coin in his bosom, and handed it to the old man, saying, "Thank you, old man."

The old man took the five baht money and said with a calm smile: "Young man is not bad, old man, I will leave first, but before I leave, I would like to give you a piece of advice, don't provoke Xu Gao, he is not a fuel-efficient lamp."

After the old man finished speaking, he took a meaningful look at Dongfang Sheng and Gan Ning, then turned around and left with the money in his arms.

Dongfang Sheng glanced at Gan Ning and said, "Go and knock on the door. This Xu Gao is the Zhang Gao you mentioned. Zhang Gao is a pseudonym, and Xu Gao is his real name."

Gan Ning stepped forward and grabbed the door knocker and knocked lightly three times, but there was no response from inside. Gan Ning tried hard knocking three times, but still no one came to open the door.

Just when Gan Ning was about to knock for the third time, the door was opened roughly, and then a man with his chest bared rushed to open the door and cursed: "That bastard with no eyes interrupted Grandpa's interest?"

Dongfang Sheng took a look at this man. He was more than seven feet tall, and his body was muscular. His trousers were loosely tied on his lower body. He seemed to be busy with the important task of 'creating a man'. No one would be happy to be disturbed at such a time.
