The nature of Song Dacheng and Dai Ying's work determined that their identities must be kept secret, so the two left quietly, but Situ Qingyun was different, so when he left, Li Yun personally went to see him off.

"Qingyun take care, put your own safety first in everything!" Before leaving, Li Yun instructed again.

"Don't worry, big brother, I'll pay attention."

Then Situ Qingyun said goodbye to the others: "Brothers, take care!" I'm leaving! ”

Xu Tianhua said with some reluctance: "Big brother, you must take care!" ”

"Take care!" Luo Li also looked reluctant.

"Brother Situ, take care!"

"Take care!"

Xu Tielong, King Dahe, Zhao Xin and others also waved goodbye one after another.

Looking at the worried Xu Tianhua and Luo Li, Li Yun was relieved: "Don't worry, Qingyun is just going to form a force in the rivers and lakes, so that it will be fine to collect the masters on the rivers and lakes for his own use." ”

Xu Tianhua and Luo Li nodded when they heard this, and said, "We understand big brother." ”

In fact, Li Yun didn't intend to keep this matter a secret, and the things in the army should be kept secret, and Li Yun, who should tell them, will also let them know. It's just that according to the secrecy regulations, there are some things that can only be announced by Li Yun himself, and others are not allowed to disclose their tasks to anyone without authorization.

After Situ Qingyun, Song Dacheng and Dai Ying left, Li Yun returned to his previous state, copying books, attending classes, telling stories, and training workers. If you want to make soap, of course, you have to have workers, so Li Yun selected more than a dozen people from the engineering team to come out and conduct a simple training, after all, the manufacturing process of soap is not complicated.

At the same time, after Song Dacheng left, he led people straight to Qingping County, which was closest to them.

Qingping County is a small county under Canglan Mountain, although it is only a county seat, but Qingping County is quite prosperous, because it is close to Canglan Mountain, so it has become a distribution center for all kinds of mountain goods, merchants gather and trade is prosperous. At the beginning, the long wind and waves encircled and suppressed the Vermilion Bird Army was the Qingping County Patrol Battalion, but he could make the Qingping County Patrol Battalion miserable, and the people and horses transferred at that time were almost wiped out, and until now the Qingping County Patrol Battalion has not eased up.

In the evening, Song Dacheng and his entourage pretended to be businessmen and entered Qingping County, because Qingping County was originally a place where businessmen gathered, so it did not arouse anyone's suspicion.

After settling down in the inn, Song Dacheng instructed: "You just stay in the inn and don't go, I'll go and visit the dock here." ”

"No!"

Song Dacheng is an old fritter, he naturally understands the rules of business, that is, every time you go to a place, the first thing you have to do is to visit various docks, whether it is official or on the road, otherwise you can't do anything.

So after he made a heart, he went to visit the county magistrate of Qingping County, the largest wharf in Qingping County. After inquiring about the location of the yamen, Song Dacheng went straight to the back door of the county yamen.

"Bangbang...... Bangbang ......"

He knocked on the door, and in a moment a soap-clad servant came to open the door, "Who! Is there a random knock on the door of the county office? ”

After opening the door, Song Dacheng skillfully handed over a piece of silver, and smiled: "Trouble the little brother to report, the villain has come to meet the county commander." ”

I saw that the official weighed the silver, and a smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Okay, come with me." ”

The official didn't report it, and directly led Song Dacheng in, and the official who could be on an errand in the county government had already practiced a pair of sharp eyes, and he knew at a glance that Song Dacheng was a businessman who came to worship the dock.

led Song Dacheng into the back office, and the official said, "You wait here first, and I will report it." ”

Song Dacheng immediately arched his hand back: "Little brother, don't worry, I understand the rules." ”

The soap-clothed servant nodded and left, and after a while, a middle-aged man with a folding fan and a goatee came out, and when he saw the visitor, Song Dacheng immediately stepped forward to pay a visit: "The villain has seen the master." ”

"Well, are you here to meet the prefectural magistrate?" Jiang Bizhong stroked his beard and said a little arrogantly.

"Yes, the villain Song Dacheng wants to open a small business in Qingping County, and I hope that the county will take care of the adults." When Song Dacheng heard this, he immediately smiled and offered his heart.

Jiang Bizhong took the gift and weighed it for a while, then nodded, "Well, it's not bad." ”

At this time, Song Dacheng took out a few more silver tickets and handed them over, "Master's little meaning is not respectful, you can take it to buy some tea to drink." ”

After taking the silver ticket, Jiang Bizhong had a smile on his face, "Well, don't worry, I will give your mind to the county commander." ”

"Then there's Master Lao." Song Dacheng immediately thanked him.

And Jiang Bizhong took a sip of tea after putting down the gift, and Song Dacheng immediately said goodbye: "Then master, you will leave after you are busy with the villain." ”

"Hmm."

Jiang Bizhong nodded, the county magistrate is naturally not a cat or a dog can be seen, and most of the merchants who worship the pier are received by Jiang Bizhong.

However, for Song Dacheng, it doesn't matter if he can't see the county order, as long as the pier arrives. Then Song Dacheng gave his heart to several other adults in the county government, and called the third class of officials, as well as several uncles on Qingping County Road, and did not return to the inn until the evening.

After returning home, a few people in the entourage asked, "How is the shopkeeper?" ”

Song Dacheng took a sip of tea and looked relaxed, "Don't worry, all the docks have already arrived, and we can find a shop to open tomorrow." ”

"That's great."

Several people were very happy when they heard this, because there was a shortage of supplies in the mountains now, and they had to raise and transfer materials as soon as possible.

Early the next morning, Song Dacheng and the others began to act separately, some people went to inquire about the news and investigate the market situation, some people went to hire men to find shops, and Song Dacheng went to visit various merchants to discuss business, everything was carried out in such an orderly manner.

So three days later, a shop called Song's Mountain Goods Store opened on Dongguan Street in Qingping County.

"Smack...... Syllable...... Smack......"

"Smack...... Syllable...... Smack......"

After a burst of lively firecrackers, Song Dacheng greeted the guests at the door with a smile on his face.

"Shopkeeper Li, come, please inside!"

"Shopkeeper Chen, welcome to come in!"

Now that the Vermilion Bird Army has a good relationship with Lin Quanzhai, if you don't make good use of such a good condition, wouldn't you be a profiteer. So with this relationship, Song Dacheng got a lot of high-quality mountain goods in Linquan Village, and established this Song Mountain Goods Store, which had already finalized several deals before it opened.

As soon as the Song Mountain Goods Store opened, business was booming, and with this cover, Song Dacheng quickly raised the first batch of materials, mainly raw materials and food for making soap, as well as various tools and equipment. Fortunately, Song Dacheng had done it before, otherwise it wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

After loading this batch of materials, Song Dacheng told again: "You must be careful on the road, don't make any mistakes, go back quickly!" ”

"Don't worry, shopkeeper, there won't be any problems with me." Yang Feng patted his chest and assured Song Dacheng that Yang Feng was Song Dacheng's deputy and was originally a squad leader of the guard. For the safety of material transfer, Li Yun was specially transferred from the guard team to assist Song Dacheng.

"Well, let's go right away."

"Brothers, let's go!"

After checking it again, Yang Feng ordered the team to set off, and when they arrived at the gate of the city, because Song Dacheng had already made a point in advance, the soldiers guarding the city just looked at it casually and let them go.

Along the way, Yang Feng traveled along the official road, until it was dark and there were no pedestrians on the road, then he turned to Canglan Mountain, and waited for a long time to wait for the agreed pick-up place. The reason why Li Yun let Hou San Li Dai Taozhuang occupy Shuangyang Village was to use Shuangyang Village to provide cover for the Vermilion Bird Army, and to carry out external activities in the name of Shuangyang Village, so as to prevent the Vermilion Bird Army from being exposed to outsiders too early.

Yang Feng reported when he saw Hou San: "All the materials of the captain have been transported, and a total of fifteen carts are available for you to receive." ”

"Well, thank you for your hard work, and we'll take care of the rest." Hou San said a hard job, and then ordered someone to receive the supplies.

After Hou San confirmed that all the materials were missing, Yang Feng left, "The materials of the captain Hou will be handed over to you, and we will withdraw first." ”

"Well, be careful on the road."

After Yang Feng left, Hou San took people to transport all the materials to Shuangyang Village first, and sent someone to report the situation to Li Yun. After Li Yun got the news, he ordered Hou San to transport all the supplies back to the old camp early tomorrow morning.

At this time, most of the Vermilion Bird Army had already evacuated the Hidden Dragon Valley and returned to the old camp, because the Huwei Army had withdrawn, and if the Vermilion Bird Army was in the Hidden Dragon Valley, it would inevitably give people with ulterior motives an excuse. Moreover, on the side of the couch, how could others snore, even if Lin Quanzhai didn't care, Li Yun was worried that Lin Quanzhai would inadvertently bite him. Therefore, only Li Yun and a small team stayed in the Hidden Dragon Valley in the name of copying books for Salo and helping Arui train his troops, and everyone else withdrew to the old camp.

And the location of the secret base chosen by Li Yun is also near the old camp, in addition to Li Yun's lectures and copying books in the past few days, the most important thing is to determine the location of the secret base, but this place is not so easy to find. If it is located in the deep mountains, one is worried about the people who cross the mountain, and the other is that the traffic will be very inconvenient, so it can only be located on the periphery.

So after three days of turning, he finally determined the location of the secret base, which was Yuehu Stream.

Li Yun himself didn't expect to turn around at the end, and returned to the old camp, Yuehu Stream is not far from the old camp, the outer terrain is quite dangerous, and the space inside is not too big but enough. The most important thing is that there is a mountain spring in it, which is very rich in water, after all, whether it is a military industry or a civilian industry in the future, it will need to consume a large amount of water.

Therefore, after determining the Yuehu Stream, Li Yun ordered Chen Muyu to lead the engineering team into the Yuehu Stream and carried out the preliminary construction of the project in advance.
