Chapter Twenty-Seven: Supplementing Logistics
As soon as Qingshan heard that more than 100,000 catties of supplies would arrive immediately, he didn't have time to read the letter, so he called someone to call the transport team that had not yet gone out to come to the compound immediately, and called the construction team to come to the two squadrons, and instructed the warehouse department to prepare the warehouse, and said: "It's meat materials that have come back, please ask Sister Cuihua to help collect them!"
Then he sat down to read the letter, about the encounter in the mountains Qing Song wrote very simply, in order to save time, mainly wrote about the personnel arrangement, material handling and the name change in Yizi! When Qing Shan saw the date, he was surprised and asked: "Nephew Yikang, according to the date on this letter, did you come back in only two days?"
Yi Kang said: "Yes! I rushed back day and night! The food for the team entering the mountain is already in short supply, and if we don't get food soon!" Qing Shan asked: "Is it Zhuang Zhuang in the yard?" Yi Kang said: "Yes! Zhuang Zhuang understands human nature, can understand people's speech, and is extremely powerful!" Qing Shan beckoned to the kitchen: "Go and carry the steamed buns!" Yi Kang said: "Forget the second uncle! Let's go to the steamed bun shop with Zhuang Zhuang and I by ourselves! Just as you could write a note to me!" As he was talking, someone outside the courtyard shouted: "The ox team has arrived!" Qingshan put down the letter, walked outside the courtyard gate with Yikang, and Zhuang Zhuang also walked out!
A scalper followed the smell of the strong and had already run to the open space outside the courtyard to stand, Yikang said: "Second uncle, in order to come back as soon as possible, the cattle team has been carrying things for two days and two nights without putting them down!" Qingshan hurriedly beckoned the ten nephews who left the wine brewing in the courtyard and put the things down for the scalper. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info Yikang said to the scalper: "Scalper, you are waiting here to show the way to the later cattle so that they can go to the steamed bun shop to eat the steamed buns first after unloading!"
The scalper nodded and stood on the side, and everyone in the yard said that this scalper was so sensible! Yikang took Zhuang Zhuang and went to the bun shop. Qingshan and other people from the transportation team and the construction team arrived before arranging for their nephews to do all kinds of scheduling, first to notify the families who entered the mountain to send people to receive silver coins equal to two taels of gold, and then to send people to notify all the veterans to put down their work and gather at the courtyard gate, to notify the clothing department to prepare clothes and pants, to ask the uncle in the hall to select the craftsmen in the backyard of the mountain among the carpenters and blacksmiths, to notify the pottery department to select thirty craftsmen who voluntarily enter the mountain, to notify the assistant of the chief of the horse circle to come to the compound to standby, to inform the kitchen to prepare meals, and to set off immediately.
Yikang and Zhuang Zhuang came to the bun shop, and Yikang handed over the slip, which read: "The bun shop is infinite to the city today, Yikang, the chief of the horse circle, and the captain of the cavalry into the mountain, Yikang, supply the buns!"
The steamed bun shop worker was stunned and immediately notified the shop manager. While waiting, Yikang moved his own hands, opened the cage drawer and brought it to the ground in the yard, and beckoned: "What are you waiting for? first move the existing buns out for Zhuang Zhuang to eat! Zhuang Zhuang is my father's favorite general!" Zhuang Zhuang flicked his tail and lowered his head with his tongue to roll it halfway, and saw that the guys were helping to carry the buns, Yikang walked in and ate while taking the package and packing it.
The shop manager also hurriedly ran out of the backyard to greet the steamed buns with the good noodles immediately, and immediately made noodles with the noodles, and could not let the steamed buns be broken! Yikang ate twelve steamed buns and couldn't eat them, standing at the gate of the courtyard and beckoning the cows from behind to come into the yard to eat the buns, Zhuang Zhuang ate more than 300 buns, and he didn't eat them, and he also came out of the yard to greet the children in cow language, and the children couldn't eat too much, they could only eat half full!
Yikang said to Zhuang Zhuang: "If you have a cow to eat, I will take it to the horse pen to rest, do you want to go? If you don't go to rest, you can look around here!" Zhuang Zhuang nodded, meaning that he was ready to look around, and then Zhuang Zhuang ran away. Yikang took a few well-eaten cows to the horse pen, and one of the well-eaten ones did not leave and stayed at the gate of the bun shop to watch the door, and it called a few times when a cow came. Yikang came to the horse pen with a few cows, and the veterans who fed the horses in the horse pen were all happy. Yikang asked about the five hundred retired military horses, and everyone said that they had arrived and were in good health. Yikang asked, "I went into the mountains with the cavalry, and you have only a hundred men, and now you have added five hundred horses." Are you still busy?"
A veteran replied: "It's okay! Barely able to cope, the elders don't let us follow the convoy, we can sleep and rest during the day, and there are hundreds of horses that have been doing rotational transportation in Shigang Village for a long time, which also gives us a lot of work!"
"I'm going to go soon when I come back this time, and I'm going to go and select three hundred men to join the ring, and two hundred to join the cavalry, and five hundred horses to take with me," said Yikang. Go and choose 500 horses that are in poor condition, and rest assured that you will not let them die, but to enjoy their blessings! You found a grassland in the mountains, and in this season there are still abundant water and grass, some old and some young. My father-in-law asked me to send 500 horses to be recuperated first! I can't come back for a long time to garrison this horse pen! You can follow me into the mountains, but you can't follow them all! You have to leave behind some new brothers! It is really very dangerous to enter the mountains, and the cavalry team has encountered an attack by a large herd of wild boars before it arrives, but fortunately, the father-in-law commanded and dispatched properly, the major general was extraordinary, and the spearmen fought desperately to win without a dead man. Later, he killed a giant python, do you know how long the giant python is? It was straightened for more than 600 steps, and even a detonator could not blow it up! In the end, it was the major general who ran wildly for hundreds of miles with the wounded giant python before he was able to kill it alive! If it hadn't been for the spear team ambushing the giant python with their throwing guns at the end, it would not have died! It was so scary! Only one or two of the ten throwing guns that the spear team had inserted into the ground played a role and pierced through the gap in the giant python's scales, and it was because of these throwing guns that the giant python died! When the giant python died, it was almost able to return to its lair, and with all kinds of regret it looked at the nest that it would soon reach! At that time, if it hadn't been for the pillar brothers who gave it the final blow with a detonator, it would have been able to return the yang if it had not been able to get it back, and this animal life was so hard! It knocked down hundreds of giant trees as thick as a grinding disc at once! It was too terrifying! The most dangerous thing was that after killing the giant python, a demon beast was immediately summoned, and the spearmen lined up a human wall in front of the righteous father and vowed to fight to the death to scare the demon beast away! A few days later, another demon beast came, flew in the sky and held it with us for a long time, and when he saw that he couldn't start, he retreated!"
The veterans in the horse circle listened to what Yikang said, and they still had to rush to sign up for the mountain team. Yikang had no choice but to select fifty of them who were in better health, and asked them to immediately pack a small amount of clothes and prepare to enter the mountain overnight. He told the brothers who stayed behind and said: "Then there will be cows running to the horse pen by themselves, putting grass and salt on them, and they will eat as much as they want, and when they don't eat themselves, take them to rest and don't go up the fence, let them come and go freely!"
After saying that, Yikang ran to the compound. When I came to the gate of the compound, the pork on the ground was already piled up. At present, the cattle that come running are basically python meat on their backs, and some soldiers of the transport team are moving the python meat to various kitchens, and Aunt Cuihua has already gone to the kitchen to guide her! Another construction team is moving all kinds of materials from the storehouse and packing them on the roadside.
A strong man waiting by the gate of the courtyard saw Yikang and greeted loudly: "Brother Yikang, go to the second uncle of the hall house and wait for you!" Yikang clasped his fists and saluted: "Hehe! It turned out to be my brother! Let's go, let's go in together!"
When I came to the hall, in addition to the elders, all the brothers and brothers of the family were here, and there were also a few young women, who should be the brothers and sisters of the family who had entered the mountain! Qingshan shouted: "Lotus to see the tea, Yikang's nephew came to sit down and talk!" Everyone greeted Yikang affectionately, and several men pulled Yikang to a table with Qingshan and sat down!
In the hall, Yikang briefly talked about what happened after entering the mountain, and said that when he came back, there were no major casualties in the entire mountain team, and everyone was really relieved. Speaking of the big battle of wild boars, which were carried in the rain overnight, everyone was very grateful that the team was still thinking about their home in such a dangerous situation! Speaking of the battle against the giant python in Baiping, the chased Katayama was running wildly, and even the logistics team was ready to retreat to save their lives, and everyone was extremely frightened! Speaking of the name of the ancestors, it can still deter the demon beasts, and everyone showed deep reverence! Only the soldiers of the team entering the mountain will go deeper this time, and it is not dangerous for the logistics team to take root in place! According to what Yikang said, Qingshan had a new understanding of the team entering the mountain, and immediately returned to the backyard to write letters.
Yikang also went to the door to select soldiers to form a team to support the mountain, and one hundred and fifty of the three hundred soldiers selected were sent to the horse pen, and one hundred and fifty were disbanded on the spot to prepare clothes and then return to the compound for lunch and set off.
Aunt Cuihua is also handing over the work to Liangpi's mother and lotus, and this time Aunt Cuihua was also named and asked to go. Even the two stonemason's sons and daughter-in-law had to go with them, but Aunt Cuihua didn't ask why! Just asked her daughter-in-law to go home and prepare, and asked Qingshan to arrange for someone to go to Shigang Village to pick up her grandchildren and granddaughters to come to Xincheng, and let the two sons pack stonemason tools!
It was noon in a flash, and a hundred wooden tables were set up in the compound, and the teams that were about to leave had lunch in the compound. A logistics team of 500 people, a soldier team of 200 people, and Aoyama also specially invited the whole family of Jin Scissors from the clothing department.
Waiting for the dishes to be served, Aoyama suddenly stood up and said to Jin Scissors: "These three ingots of gold are wages, please accept them!" Jin Scissors felt bad and asked, "Lord Aoyama, why is this?" Aoyama said: "It is almost March, and all the affairs of Xincheng have been basically arranged!
Jin Scissors pretended to be stupid and said: "The villain doesn't know?" Qingshan said: "All the ministries of Xincheng have appointed people who are willing to settle in the city as ministers, and the clothing department also needs a person with a household registration in the city to be the captain! You have been in Xincheng for several months, and you still have decided not to settle the household registration issue, so I have to write a letter to the Jinsha City soldiers and horses, send his brother-in-law and wallet to settle in Xincheng to settle down as the minister of clothing! So end the construction period of your family in advance, and this extra ingot of gold is the money to terminate the contract!" Jin Scissors hurriedly bowed down and said: "The villain is willing to settle in Xincheng with his whole family!" Aoyama said: "But I have already sent someone to send the letter!" Jin Scissors knelt down and said: "Lord Aoyama will give you another chance! The villain must be at ease to build a new city without two thoughts!" Aoyama said in embarrassment: "But the position of minister has been promised to others, leaving you! If your talent is not worthy of the corresponding position, it is really too condescending!"
The lady of the golden scissors scolded while crying: "Husband, it's all your fault for being clever, and thinking about making money and going back to Jinsha City! Now Xincheng doesn't want us anymore, and you can still mix up with an official and a half-job if you settle in Xincheng! You don't listen, and the position of the head of this department has flown away! The salary is higher than that of the county order! Are you stupid? What kind of life have you spent in Jinsha City? You can't open the pot at home, have you forgotten it? Are you stupid to eat you every day here? Look at how much the two girls have grown taller in just a few months? Isn't it so good to eat and drink here? I really want to kick you a few times! What can you do with all this gold when you get it back to Sands City? How much money do you have after you get the materials? And then you eat and wait for death? Even if you go back, you will make money immediately? If anyone wants to bully you, they will bully!" Jin Scissors was scolded by the lady and cried: "Lord Qingshan, I was wrong! I was wrong! I am not an official, okay? I will not go back to Sands City, leave me!" I'll work, just let me stay as a worker!"
Qingshan said: "No, you are not the material to be a worker! You are the material to be an official! Since you really want to stay, so be it! There is an official vacancy in the mountain team, if you are willing to join the mountain team, I will be the master of your whole family, and let the county order handle the household registration! Speaking of the county commander, he will settle in Xincheng in the future!"
The lady of the golden scissors really couldn't bear it anymore, and lifted her feet twice!"What are you still bored to do? Hurry down, even if you die in the mountains, the children will have a way out! Here the children can still read every day, don't you have a little craft? Do you know a few words?" The golden scissors knelt on the ground and said, "The villain is willing, willing to go into the mountain!"
Qingshan said: "Oh! So, get up! I will take back these three ingots of gold, which are one or two silver for each person in the mountain team!" The lady of the golden scissors said: "Please give two taels of silver, and I will also join the mountain team, and the children will ask Lord Qingshan to take care of them!" Qingshan smiled and said: "I don't want three ingots of gold, do you want two taels of silver?" Hehe! Golden scissors! Your lady knows more things than you! Go along! Look at the golden scissors so that he won't make a mistake!" Qingshan took back another tael of silver and took out three ingots of gold and handed them to the lady with gold scissors: "Use these three ingots of gold to pick up your mother's people, your mother is still there, let the child's grandmother take care of the children, you can really work with confidence!"
The lady of the golden scissors pushed back the gold and said, "It's all up to Lord Aoyama's arrangement, and my husband and I will follow the team into the mountain after dinner!" Aoyama shouted to Jin Scissors to get up and sit down, and then shouted to everyone to start eating! Most of the ingredients on the table are python meat, and under the guidance of Aunt Cuihua, the dishes have become high-quality! Everyone ate happily, and even the people who had just cleaned up the golden scissors shook their heads!
After lunch, Qingshan stood at the gate of the compound to send the mountain team to set off, and at the same time there was a long-distance transport team to Jinsha City and Fengxian County. The one who went to Jinsha City was to transport wine, and to Fengxian County was two brigades with a total of 600 horses, two hundred horses to send wild boar and python meat to the county government, and four hundred horses to send wild boar and python meat to Daying, and the transport team to Daying also brought the secret music and ore samples collected by the bee demon to be forwarded by the Bai family! Xiao Gang had already discussed with Qingsong that the gold mine should be sent to the king and asked the king to send people to mine it. The family has a large number of special products that can be sold for many generations, and the Great Qin Kingdom is the family's treasury! We can't let the king be too poor to afford the special products, and after a long time, I am afraid that the king will go crazy! Now the family can repay the favor owed to the big king's family!
The cattle team entering the mountain was the first to set off, carrying a large amount of supplies and a logistics team of 100 people to open up a supply point on the way into the mountain. Then there was a team of five hundred horses, followed by two hundred soldiers. Next is Zhuang Zhuang carrying Aunt Cuihua, the old man is very old. You have to be strong to carry it on your back to be reassured, and Yikang rides another cow full of buns to escort Aunt Cuihua! Then there is the logistics team of 400 people, who will build roads along the road and build wooden bridges with giant logs.
Sent into the mountain team and the transport team, Qingshan realized that he didn't see the black cow when he was eating. I sent someone to find out that the black bull had already ridden a cow into the mountain early, and I don't know how he succeeded in fooling a cow as a mount! Qingshan wanted to send a fast horse to chase after him, but he thought that the fast horse would not be able to catch up with these cows in the mountains, so he had to give up!
