"You must keep an eye on him. If anything goes wrong, I will ask for your help."
Zuo Tian really didn't want to see Zhou Yu anymore at this moment. If he continued to see Zhou Yu, he would be pissed to death by Zhou Yu.
He knew that Zhou Yu had a very powerful mouth, and every word he spoke could reach his heart. Every word he said was like a knife piercing his heart.
"Yes! Captain, don't worry, we will definitely take good care of him and we will not let him escape."
"What kind of service do you want to serve? I just asked you to keep an eye on him. Remember not to hit him. You must treat him kindly. You must not let him get hurt at all. Do you understand?"
"yes"
His men actually misunderstood him.
Originally, according to their treatment methods, they would usually abuse prisoners like Zhou Yu who were relatively tough.
In this way, he will be able to get more benefits by making him submissive, but at this moment, this method cannot be used against Zhou Yu.
After all, note that he is also a naval commander, and he is also a character.
If this method is used, it will be a great humiliation for Zhou Yu, and it will definitely inspire Zhou Yu to resist.
"First mate, come here with me. The two of us will discuss what we should exchange our governor for."
"Okay, Captain."
Zuotian called his first mate and returned to his captain's cabin.
Because he now needs to determine exactly what kind of things he wants to ask for from the Wei Kingdom.
After all, people like Zhou Yu certainly cannot just ask for some money like other hostages.
For them, the opportunity to catch Zhou Yu is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they must get enough supplies.
It is absolutely not possible to spend them with just some ordinary money.
After arriving at the captain's cabin, Zuotian sat down directly on his throne.
Then he casually picked up the wine next to him and started drinking. After all, he had just communicated with Zhou Yu for a while, which made him very depressed.
He really didn't expect Zhou Yu to be so tough and not afraid at all that he would kill him.
"Captain, what kind of ransom do you think is more appropriate for us to ask the Wei Kingdom for?"
"I asked you to come down to help me determine these things, not to ask you to ask me what I want from them."
"It's the captain, but I have a few suggestions here. Captain, please consider them and see which one is more reasonable."
"explain!"
"The first is the simplest, which is to directly ask for a huge ransom from the Wei Kingdom. In this case, the transaction will be more convenient, but the trouble is that once we get the ransom, we can only buy some regular items.
Supplies, for some special supplies, we still have no way to buy them here. After all, the control of the Great Wei State is too strict now and it is difficult for us to get them."
Zuotian's first mate saw things quite accurately. After all, he was simply asking for some money.
Although it is more convenient to trade, the problem is that you can only buy some ordinary things with the money.
For example, some materials related to the military or some relatively rare materials are subject to very strict control.
It doesn’t mean that you can buy them if you have money, but these things are naturally more useful.
"I know this. I had no intention to use him in exchange for some money. Although money is a good thing, it is not that important to us. Let's talk about the second type."
After listening to what his first mate said, Zuo Tian also sneered. After all, he had never thought of just exchanging the power for some so-called money.
This money is not that attractive to him.
"The second method is to ask them to give them a huge sum of money and at the same time give us some materials that are difficult to obtain. However, this method may be more troublesome. After all, these materials are also difficult for us to obtain.
transportation."
"And at the same time, the risk will be much greater. But the usefulness for us is also obvious. After we get these materials, our strength can also be qualitatively improved."
"What do you think these supplies include?"
"Of course they are the supplies we are in short supply, such as medicines, some high-end weapons and equipment, and these advanced navigation technologies, which we urgently need."
"Go on, tell me your third type."
After listening to what his first mate said, Zuo Tian felt that neither of them was what he wanted.
After all, although the supplies his doctor mentioned are indeed difficult for him to obtain now, it does not mean that there are no ways at all.
It may only cost more money, but it can also be done with money. Since things that can be done with money are not too difficult.
It is still a problem that can be solved by asking for enough money from the Wei State.
So for Zhou Yu, he felt that it was not worth it to catch such a big fish but only wanted something that could be solved with money.
"This third type is more dangerous, because the Wei State may not agree. Even if they agree, they may cheat us. The risk is too high for us.
But at the same time, if we can succeed, the benefits will be the greatest."
"Don't be pretentious, just tell me directly."
"Yes, Captain! The third type is that they have some strategic materials, such as their new warships and new naval equipment. And I heard that they are now developing an underwater warship."
"Being able to approach the enemy silently, and after getting close to the enemy, you can actually attack the enemy from underwater. You can make the enemy invisible and the entire ship will be sunk. This is a big deal for us.
It’s so useful.”
The third situation mentioned by Zuotian's first mate is naturally the most perfect.
This is because the naval equipment of the Great Wei Kingdom is no longer the latest, and their latest equipment has not yet been equipped to each navy.
After all, it is only in the experimental stage, and it is just a very small piece of equipment that has been verified by some naval forces.
If they could really get all the latest equipment, it would be of great use to them.
Now when their peers compete with each other, they still have relatively backward warships and relatively backward technologies.
If they can get the latest warships like the David Kingdom, then they can be said to be invincible in the competition among their peers.
Even when they go to other countries to do such things as burning, killing and looting, it will be more convenient.
After all, this new type of warship is so powerful that it is almost like using today's warships to fight these ancient human-powered sailing ships.
It was simply a one-sided massacre, but Zuotian also knew that this third situation, although more beautiful, might be difficult to achieve.
