In a village nearly 100 miles away from Ma Qiang, Deng Mao knelt on the ground and said pleadingly, "Senior brother, no! Once the things in that village are released, this Youzhou will be destroyed! ”

"When the matter of Jixian spreads, our Taiping Dao will be ruined!!" Cheng Zhiyuan shouted with red eyes, "Besides, aren't there still great sages and good teachers!" When the time comes, I will personally go and ask Master to come here to save Youzhou! ”

"It's... Senior brother, think twice! ”

"I've thought about it nine times!" Cheng Zhiyuan stood up and turned around a few times, and then said, "I am the chief canal commander of Youzhou, at this time, I am in charge!" You just do what you do! ”

"Senior brother!"

"Listen to the !!"

Deng Mao lowered his head and stopped talking, he knew that he couldn't persuade Cheng Zhiyuan, and now he could only hope that Zhang Jiao could really save Youzhou in the future.

Cheng Zhiyuan saw that Deng Mao surrendered, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Immediately lead the things of that village to a few big households around the village, and then spread them around Guangyang County respectively, you must pay attention to the time, and you must trigger them to the greatest extent within one day!" Only in this way can we give the biggest shock to those dog officials in Jixian County! ”

Saying that, Cheng Zhiyuan laughed fiercely, he looked at his injured foot and said, "Ma Qiang, you wait, I want to see if you can break my trick again!" ”

Looking at Cheng Zhiyuan's appearance, Deng Mao didn't have any excitement in his heart, and all of them were worried.

A catastrophe is about to be staged in Youzhou.

——Outside Changping County

Lin Huan's eyes widened and he looked at the convoy in front of him, if it weren't for the old brother Lu An greeting him in front, he would have to think that he was picking up the wrong person.

"This... Who are these cavalry? "Lin Huan is knowledgeable, not only recognizing this as a Wuhuan cavalry, but also recognizing this as an elite.

"This is the soldier I borrowed from Nanlou, we have transported a lot of things this time, take precautions, Brother Yan Rou!" Ma Qiang shouted to Yan Rou, "Tell the brothers, work hard, we won't go into the city, go directly to the destination, and I'll treat you to eat meat and drink wine later!" ”

Yan Rou nodded and said, "No problem." Then he turned around and spoke in Wuhuan language.

"Wealth is moving, let's go to that valley now, how far is that valley from here?"

Lin Huan also understood the reason, pointed to the northwest direction and said, "Go there for twenty miles, I have already bought it with the money you sent before, and there was no grange there, so it was cheap." ”

"It's good to be cheap, just start a business, and you still have to spend less money." Ma Qiang said with a smile, "We have too few people now, I have asked Uncle Lu to send someone to bring money to recruit the homeless, but I'm afraid it's too late, let's recruit some homeless people around here first, recruit a hundred young people first, and allow each of them to bring a woman and children, and we will raise them." ”

"That's fine, that valley is a little smaller than our Dasong Village, but it should be enough, there is a small river in the valley, and there are no people around, so we have to build our own houses, and now we are really short of manpower."

A group of people came all the way to a junction, Lin Huan pointed to a mountain forest and said, "In that direction, from here there is no big road, only a small road." ”

"Everyone be careful, when you get to the place, everyone will have another big meal!" Ma Qiang boosted his morale and began to observe the surrounding terrain.

This should be regarded as a hilly area, there are many small hills, not high, the surrounding vegetation is dense, it can be seen that the water source is sufficient, although it is not a good place, but as long as it is reclaimed, it can also feed a lot of people.

"Uncle Lin, I don't think the land here is barren, and it should be reclaimable, why hasn't anyone built a farm here?"

Lin Huan sighed and said, "The homeless people can't even eat, where can they have the ability to reclaim wasteland?" As for those who are able, it is too late to encroach on the ripe fields of the people, and who will come to open up the wastelands. ”

Ma Qiang understood, this is the same as some situations in later generations, the poor are very difficult to live, and they have no strength to make some investments with higher returns, while the rich can easily put their funds into the investment market to make themselves richer and richer.

From the perspective of social development, the state should play a role as an intermediary at this time, using taxes and other means to transfer the excessive profits earned by the rich to some of the poor, but it is a pity that the Han Dynasty at this time has fallen into the whirlpool of party power, and has no power to cut the rich and help the poor.

"Now we have money in our hands, people can be recruited everywhere, I think we can build a farm here, on the one hand, we have food in our hands, we don't panic, on the other hand, we can also let the families of workers in the workshop have a way back and belong in the future, after all, the workshop cannot be done for a lifetime, there will always be a time when you can't do it."

Lin Huan smiled and said, "You are in charge of this matter, this time I can see it, Ma Lang, you are not an ordinary person, Qingcheng met you, it is her blessing, but also the blessing of our Dasong Village, I think after I go back, I will give you the position of Lizheng, how about it?" ”

"Haha, big brother, I'm afraid Ma Lang doesn't look down on your Lizheng anymore, don't you know, this time in Jixian County, Ma Lang and those demons in Taiping Dao have fought several times, Guo Tingshi and Liu Junshou both respect Ma Lang and are ready to raise Maocai!" Lu An listened to Lin Huan's words, touched his beard, and looked at Ma Qiang with a proud face, "It won't be long before our Ma Lang may become a county commander and an envoy!" ”

"Oh? How can there be such a thing? When you get to the place, you have to tell me about it! Lin Huan was also overjoyed when he heard it, this Maocai is a powerful gold, as I said before, there was no imperial examination in the Han Dynasty, it was a probationary system, and the example was filial piety and Maocai, filial piety was distributed according to the population of each county, generally the children of the family, Maocai was the state ju, filial piety was generally to go to the Luoyang court as an official, Maocai was an official in the local area, and most of the Maocai were held as officials at the county level.

Like Yuan Shao's son Yuan Tan later, it was because Liu Bei promoted Maocai that he would respect Liu Bei and treat him as a guest.

After walking for about half a day, I came to a valley, and a roadblock had been set up outside the valley, and a young man saw the convoy and hurriedly greeted him. ”

"Well, no outsiders have ever been here, have they?"

"Lizheng, it's so remote here, no one has ever been here."

"I won't be remote from now on." Ma Qiang walked out and said, "It's getting late, and the brothers are tired, so let's have a good night's rest first, and then start cutting wood and building houses tomorrow." ”

"I think it's okay, just do it!" Lin Huan said in agreement.

The valley that had been uninhabited for a long time immediately became lively, bonfires, tents, and Ma Qiang found that people in this era were all camping masters.

Ma Qiang pulled Lin Huan and Lu An to sit down in one place, and first told him about Jixian County, Lin Huan heard that Ma Qiang actually succeeded in fighting with the Taoist priest of Taiping Dao, and couldn't help but glance at Ma Qiang again.

After Ma Qiang said this, he said, "Now that we have the money and the order, the next step is to recruit people and start production as soon as possible."

My plan is like this, continue to send people to various counties to recruit people, we have received a large order of hundreds of thousands of boxes of toothpaste and soap for half a year, and I am ready to reclaim the land outside, and use the farm to isolate the workshop, so at least a thousand young people are needed, plus family members, I am afraid there will be two or three thousand people. ”

"So many people?" Lin Huan was a little surprised, these two or three thousand people were already the total population of some small townships.

"Yes, in addition to this toothpaste and toothbrush in the future, I still have a lot of workshops I want to build, not to mention that in addition to the workers in the workshop, we also have to have our own security forces, and we can't always rely on the Wuhuan people, right? If you have money, you have to spend it! Ma Qiang pointed to the Wuhuan cavalry guarding in the distance.

Not to mention, these cavalrymen are very obedient, worthy of being elite, and have good discipline.

"I think Ma Lang is right, now we have money, but this money is actually money for goods, not really our money, I would rather spend more money to recruit people, and I can't make so many things when the time comes." Lu An agreed with Ma Qiang's opinion and said to Lin Huan, "Boss, I think Ma Lang is more knowledgeable than a few of us, so let's listen to him." ”

"I didn't say no, you see you're in a hurry... In this case, let's recruit 3,000 people first, and I'll go buy land, but fortunately it's all wasteland, and it's easy to buy it, so without further ado, I'll leave now. Lin Huan said and prepared to leave.

"Uncle Lin, you can rest before you go."

"When I think of hundreds of thousands of goods, I can't stop, if I can't pay for it, we will have no face to go out to meet people in Dasong Village." Lin Huan shook his head, he didn't know when it started, as if the entire Dasong Village had been pushed into a carriage by Ma Qiang, and he couldn't stop at all.

Seeing that Lin Huan really took someone and rode away, Ma Qiang shook his head, looking at this valley, he can be regarded as having a new base.
