Early in the morning of the second day of the turmoil in the military camp, Lu Hong and Gao Yuan embarked on the road to the county town, Gao Yuan looked a little listless, last night, he didn't sleep all night, and it was the second half of the night when he returned home from the barracks, and then he went to squat on Ye Jing'er's windowsill, the two of them were careless across the window, holding hands, and talking about love all night, Gao Yuan didn't go to Ye Jing'er's boudoir, if the Ye lady caught it again, it would be too ugly. I didn't have a good rest for several nights in a row, and Gao Yuan rode on his horse in the snow and snow, and kept dozing off, and his head was on the same page, which looked extremely ridiculous.

There are a lot of people in their group, accompanied by not only more than a dozen captured Donghu war horses, but also more than ten boxes, containing the heads of more than a dozen Donghu people, in addition to these, the main thing is that Lu Hong and Wu Kai prepared a large number of New Year's gifts for Taishou Zhang Shouyue, not only all kinds of local specialties of Fufeng, but also dozens of jars of the most haode wine personally supervised by Wu Kai. And then there's the money.

Of course, it is not a copper coin given to Lord Taishou, as the weather gets colder and colder, Wu Kai's wine is selling better and better, calculated, in the past three months, there are three thousand yuan per share, Wu Kai himself has received a thousand yuan of filial piety, Lu Hong has a thousand filial piety, if you enter the Taishou Mansion, drag out a sack of copper coins, it is inevitably too eye-catching, these five thousand dollars, Wu Kai has all been replaced with a gold ingot, packed in a wooden box, at this time on the back of Yan Haibo, who accompanied him.

Gao Yuan brought ten guards, Yan Haibo and the infantry were also among them, Lu Hong also brought a few people, a group of dozens of people set off to Liaoxi County, for the upcoming meeting of Zhang Shouyue, Gao Yuan is still quite excited, Zhang Shouyue is a miraculous figure in Dayan, in this place where a big nobleman controls almost all the government of the court, he is a commoner, more than ten years ago, starting from a small soldier, all the way to a county Taishou, the position of guarding one side, itself is a legend.

Although because of his background, he was never accepted by the powerful people of Dayan, and he was unwilling to simply seal him as a fief in Liaoxi County, which had in fact become Zhang Shouyue's personal territory, but this did not prevent Zhang Shouyue from becoming an important part of Dayan's political map.

And the Great Yan magnates did this, but also made Zhang Shouyue very annoyed, although he didn't care about this, but he had to think about the future generations, his generation, even if he didn't have this territory, he could actually hold Liaoxi County in his hands steadily, but after a hundred years, if the descendants did not have an outstanding person, how to keep this place, and could not reward him, the Zhang family would not be able to step into the ranks of the great nobles, once he died, the imperial court would be justified in taking back this land.

As Zhang Shou grew old for a year, this anxiety increased day by day, in addition to intensifying his activities in Jicheng and using money to open the way to persuade those who controlled the government, he also kept strengthening the army building, in order to restrain their actions after his death, those who coveted the local area of Liaoxi County in Dayan because of such a powerful army.

Of course, it is best to give him the Zhang family directly, so that it can be done once and for all. So, Zhang Shouyue needs a lot of money.

Walking on the road to the county town of Liaoxi, Gao Yuan's first feeling is that the traffic is too bad, on the road, the snow is trampled into mud, the team can walk fifty miles every day, even if it is a good result, more than a dozen ox carts accompanying it, the wheels will fall into the mud from time to time, it is difficult to move an inch, everyone has to roll up their sleeves, step on the muddy road and push the car forward, in addition to Lu Hong, even Gao Yuan sometimes has to join this ranks, at the end of the day, the whole person has completely become a mud monkey. I'm so tired that I can't even speak.

If there is a war ahead and reinforcements are transferred from Liaoxi County, I am afraid that it will be a big deal when it encounters such a road condition. Gao Yuan shook his head all the way, like this, I'm afraid that when the reinforcements arrive, the battle in front will have already been over. But this problem is not a problem that Gao Yuan can solve, Gao Yuan also knows that with the productivity of the current era, it is like this, what he can do is to adapt to him, and he does not want to solve him at all.

However, the further you go inward, the richer you become along the way, as can be seen from the houses where the people live and the dense state of the population.

From Fufeng to Liaoxi City, all the way through two counties, Shaoqi County and Lingao County, the closer to Liaoxi City, the richer it is, compared to Fufeng people often have to suffer from the robbery of the Donghu people, the people in these places are too happy.

"Gao Yuan, see it, now our business can only be sold in Fufeng County, there is such a big profit, if we can sell to these places, how much profit should we get in that year?" Lu Hong sighed, when he left, Wu Kai had already calculated this year's dividends to him, Lu Hong got a dividend of 1,500 yuan, and after filial piety to Zhang Shou about 1,000 yuan, there was still a balance of 500 yuan, this is still three months, next year, even if you don't help the wind, if you maintain this income, there will be a dividend of 6,000 yuan, and once you get the support of Zhang Shouyue, if it is fully rolled out in the entire Liaoxi County, Lu Hong can't imagine what a huge amount it will be, with this money, It is really not a problem to raise an elite army, Lu Hong doesn't want to do too much, a thousand people are enough, what Gao Yuan said that day had a great impact on him, too shou weishenme can occupy Liaoxi County for decades, isn't it just that he has an elite army of three thousand people, if he has a thousand people, then Fufeng County is also his own.

Lu Hong is not worried about Wu Kai fighting with him, Wu Kai is more like a businessman, all he wants is to make money, and he is now tied to a rope with him, and he can't jump on him if he runs, the two of them can cooperate, they can also use Fufeng as their own back garden, and with this shili, the son's road in the future can also be wider. Lu Chao is a disciple of Li Ru and Li's family, Li is full of peach and plum all over the world, and there are many powerful people among the disciples, if the operation is haode, maybe the future of his son Lu Chao will be wider than that of Lord Taishou.

Every time he thought of this, Lu Hong was so excited that he couldn't sleep.

It is necessary to hold Gao Yuan tightly in his hands, these days, the team of 100 people under Gao Yuan has given him a great shock, Gao Yuan has only taken over this army for more than two months, and he has brought a bad army into such a strong army today, if he is given a year or even a few years, then, how strong should the army he trained?

Lu Hong is an expert, from Gao Yuan's words and deeds, every move of the 100-person team, he is keenly aware that taking this 100-person team to the county seat Zhang Taishou is definitely second to none.

Although Gao Yuan and himself are not father and son, they have always taken great care of Gao Yuan, and Gao Yuan is also extremely dependent on himself, this kind of family relationship makes Lu Hong full of confidence in Gao Yuan, and now there are many business things tied together, and the relationship between the two is even stronger.

Glancing at Gao Yuan, Lu Hong laughed very happily, sending Gao Yuan to the army was the most correct thing he had done. This child is not small, since he likes Ye Jing'er, the daughter of the Ye family's lady, after going back, he will be his own master, so he will give this matter down, I don't believe that the Ye lady still dares to squeak crookedly, even if they have a problem with their background, what are they afraid of, just like Gao Yuan said, as long as they have the strength and are afraid of a ball, just like the current Zhang Taishou, even if Zhang Taishou now accepts the daughter of a Qin prisoner as his wife, the court will pretend to be deaf and dumb, but he doesn't know. Otherwise, the voice will be open, and it will not look good on both sides.

After coming back, do you consider handing over Zheng Xiaoyang's team to Gao Yuan for training? Lu Hong thought all the way, this matter is a little difficult to do, you have to plan it well, whether it is Zheng Xiaoyang or Shao Gang, who is now stationed in Curie Pass, they are all old people who have followed him for many years, and they have to save some face for them.

"Lofty and far!" Lu Hong turned around and shouted.

"Uncle!" Gao Yuan rode his horse to catch up." What's the matter?"

"You really like that Ye Jing'er, I look thin like a painting, what is there to like?" Lu Hong asked.

Gao Yuan didn't expect Lu Hong to suddenly mention such a question, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "Uncle, I think Jing'er has the kind of temperament that ordinary women don't have, which is particularly fascinating, uncle, this matter is really unclear, anyway, I like her, I don't marry her!"

"Isn't she not married to you?" Lu Hong asked jokingly.

Takato nodded affirmatively.

Lu Hong daxiao, "Dare to love you, and make a private decision for life!" You're so bold to keep my uncle a secret."

Gao Yuan blushed and said, "No, uncle, the Ye family also told me, saying that when Jing'er turns sixteen, he will marry Jing'er to me."

Lu Hong's face changed, "The Ye family has told you about this, I don't know yet, Gao Yuan, you make me sad too much."

"No, uncle, I want to tell you, but haven't I been busy all this time, so busy that I forgot about it, otherwise how dare I not tell my uncle, Gao Yuan has no parents, my uncle is my father, and my uncle will have to make up my mind for me in the end." Gao Yuan hurriedly explained.

Hearing Gao Yuan's words, Lu Hong showed a smile on his face, "This is almost the same, since you have made up your mind, then this time when you go back from the county town, I will meet with the Ye lady and settle your marriage, next year you will go to Curie Pass to stay for a year, and when you come back, you will get married, what do you think?"

"It's up to my uncle to decide!" High and ambitious.

"That's it!" Lu Hong nodded and clapped.

"Lord County Lieutenant, Gao Bing Cao, I have seen the county seat!" Yan Haibo's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, the two raised their heads, and on the ground line in the distance, the towering city walls of Liaoxi City were already clearly visible.
