In February of the third year of Jianxing, Feng Yong, the Marquis of Guannei, served as the chief of Yue, set off from Jincheng, went to Yandao through the waterway, and led 2,000 soldiers to Beishui.

In Beishui in February, the weather is already warmer than Jincheng.

Outside Beishui City, one large shed after another was built with bamboo.

Around all the sheds, after leaving enough space, a large fence was erected, with exits and entrances.

Above the shed, there was also a tall flag.

On one side of the flag is written the words "Dongfeng Express", and on one side is a drawing that resembles a cylinder, with a pointed head and a tail fin, and the bottom is still breathing fire.

Don't talk about what is painted on this flag, even the people of the Xinghan Association don't understand.

I heard that this is the first to draw by hand, although it looks nondescript, but it is the symbol of Dongfeng Express.

This banner, as well as this symbol, is really notorious among the barbarians in Nanzhong.

Because this banner represents the minions of the ghost king, I heard that it is specially designed to transport flesh and blood to the ghost king.

Early this morning, Beishui City began to make noise.

I saw a team of soldiers driving groups of prisoners of war into those sheds, and the crowd outside was in a commotion: after waiting for so long, the prisoners of war in the hands of Meng Yan were finally about to be sold.

"How many people, how many people?"

An old man in his fifties shouted with a red face.

"It is said that there are 300 people, or the first batch, and there should be more later."

"Ladies and gentlemen, the old man is from the second room of the Li family, and he arrived in a hurry the day before yesterday, to be honest, these shoes are worn out two pairs, there is no way, the main family is in a hurry. Later, I will ask you to give me a face, this labor, the old man is eighty and one......"

"Phew! Do you want it at eighty? ”

Someone said disdainfully.

"It's endless, if you give the old man enough two hundred, then the old man will have the sincerity to offer it to you!"

"Get out! Shameless old horseman! If you rob two hundred of three hundred? When did the Li family's second room have such a big face? How dare you say such a thing? ”

Hearing the old man's words, the people around him glared angrily on the spot.

Among them, they arrived ten days ago at the earliest, and after waiting for so long, just for today, this old horseman, who only came the day before yesterday, dared to speak wildly, which was really shameless.

When the old man heard this, he was immediately furious, and pointed at the person who spoke, "Who doesn't know about our Li family in Shuzhong?" That Li Dudu ......"

"Li, your grandmother!"

With a punch, I heard the old man scream and fell straight to the ground.

"Old immortal, dare to put your identity here? Do you really think Lao Tzu is afraid of the second room of the Li family? Li Dudu is the Li family in Nanzhong, don't say that it is the person in your second room, it is the big house of the Li family in Shuzhong, see if Li Dudu will give face? ”

The man was babbling and scolding, and he didn't stop trying to step forward and step on his feet.

"Forget it, this old man doesn't know the rules, don't be like him."

The accomplice hurriedly grabbed him, "If you continue to fight, you will die......"

"What's going on over there?"

The commotion here naturally attracted the attention of the soldiers who maintained order, and they immediately pressed the handle of their knives and shouted, while other soldiers moved towards this side.

The man who beat the man saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly hid in the crowd - he was about to start selling labor later, and he couldn't be caught by the soldiers.

Only an old man was left lying on the ground, and he was left unstoppable......

After the labor was fully divided into the shed, the entrance to the fence was finally opened.

"It's started, let's go, let's go!"

Someone shouted, and the crowd began to squeeze forward.

When the old man heard this, he hurriedly got up, and he didn't even care about the few footprints that had been stepped on on his body.

"Don't squeeze don't squeeze, there's still to come!"

"Shoes! Lao Tzu's shoes, dry! Which bastard stepped on Lao Tzu's shoes? ”

"You grandmother! Who's touching my ass? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu stabbed you to death? ”

There was a lot of noise, and everyone began to enter the fenced passage.

Ten laborers were kept in each shed, all of them were packaged and sold, not just sold.

Each laborer had his head shaved and his upper body bare, with only a coarse linen cloth around his waist so that the guests could observe the laborer's physical condition.

"This, this, and this, a hundred, I want them all!"

The first person to come swept over at a glance and immediately picked three sheds.

One hundred taels, which means one hundred taels of labor.

The man swept his head provocatively, the meaning is obvious, which one do I think wants to rob Lao Tzu?

No one paid any attention to him.

The basic price of 70 taels of labor sold is the basic price, and the highest price is obtained, and one hundred taels is not low.

Anyway, there is still a future to come, don't compete with this fool.

The Dongfeng Express employee who was guarding in front of the shed hurriedly shouted, "This Lang Jun bid a hundred yuan!" ”

After waiting for a few breaths, when he saw that no one was bidding again, he turned over the sign hanging in front of the shed with a smile on his face, only to see the word "sold" written on it, which means that the labor in this shed has been sold.

"This Lang Jun, please register here."

In the open space surrounded by the fence, there is a row of tables, and there are paper and pens on the tables, the paper is the best mulberry paper produced in Nanxiang, and some frames are drawn on it, and words such as unit price and total are written on it.

In front of each table sat a fifteen or sixteen-year-old Xiao Langjun, and even fourteen years old, but he had long lost his childishness and had already developed sophistication.

Seeing someone coming, he hurriedly picked up a pen and prepared to register.

"Thirty, one hundred, dare to ask if this Lang Jun is picking it up by himself or consignment?"

"Naturally, it's consignment."

"Where?"

"Pingyi County."

"Who's that?"

……

All kinds of things, the information is registered, and a copy is given to the customer as a voucher, and Dongfeng Express keeps a copy for himself, and they press their fingerprints.

The man who bought the labor took out a stack of tickets from his arms, counted them, and took out some of them and put them on the table, which was regarded as a deposit.

The remaining half will be paid when it reaches the ground.

This counts the transaction as complete.

Nowadays, all the labor bought and sold through Dongfeng Express is basically with tickets.

In order to facilitate customers, Dongfeng Express has also set up a ticket exchange office not far away.

It can be said that the labor trade has played a great role in promoting the tickets issued by the Nanxiang Dahan Reserve Bureau.

The three hundred laborers were quickly swept away, and the last two sheds were grabbed by the old housekeeper of the second room of the Li family, and one laborer was ninety.

This is because others saw that some of the laborers in these two sheds were a little thin, so they didn't rob him.

Seeing the young man in front of him Lang Jun skillfully writing out the credentials, the old steward asked with a lot of mouth, "The baby's arithmetic is good, where did you learn it?" ”

The young man looked up at the old butler with a slightly crooked nose, and said with a smile, "Back to the elder, the kid is from Nanxiang Academy, and it is necessary to learn arithmetic." ”

Nowadays, there are countless families who want to settle in Nanxiang Workshop Ranch, so the requirements are becoming more and more stringent.

Ordinary people are lucky to be able to settle in Nanxiang.

Those who can settle in the workshop ranch either have craftsmanship at home, or the baby can be looked at by the school.

This boy was taken by the school, so the whole family was able to move his household registration into the workshop ranch and live a good life.

He studied in the academy for two years, and was picked out and sent to Dongfeng Express to work.

On weekdays, I am not tired, and it is even very easy, it is all some registration and calculation work, but I get a lot of money and food every month.

The old steward glanced at the young men sitting in a row, and saw that each of them was bowing their heads to write and calculate, and he was slightly taken aback.

Meng Yan stood at the head of Beishui City, looking at the noise below, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, what family is elegant and graceful, what gentleman is ashamed of his words, when he arrives here, all of them are gone.

The profit-seekers they looked down upon on the days of peace were crowded together, screaming and waving their tickets, just to grab the best of their labor.

Feng Langjun's move is basically to tear off all the fig leafs of the family and put them in front of the world.

I just don't know, can he stop the counterattack of the family?

"Taishou, the people sent out in front have returned, saying that Feng Langjun is still a day's journey away from Beishui at most."

Meng Yan was thinking deeply, when he saw a person approaching and reporting in a low voice.

"Oh, has it finally arrived?"

Meng Yan came back to his senses and turned his head to look, "General Wang, Feng Langjun led the army here, I originally wanted to go to meet him in person, but now Beishui is newly determined. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the city, "This labor matter is also at a critical juncture, and I can't leave for a while, I wonder if General Wang can go for me?" ”

"If you keep the order too much, how dare the last general disobey your orders?"

"Then there is General Lao Wang."

Meng Yan said.

When Feng Yong saw the person sent by Meng Yan, he immediately smiled and said, "General Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?" ”

The person known as General Wang was full of joy on his face, and hurriedly bowed and saluted, "It is a great honor to have Lao Feng Langjun to worry about it." ”

Wang Han was originally a relative of Wang Ping, and when Feng Yong went to Zhuti to inspect the farming last year, Wang Ping sent him to lead his personal guards to protect Feng Yong's safety.

When Feng Yong was assassinated in Nagu, Wang Han was vigilant by nature, saw through the idea of a sneak attack by the Yiren, and held the camp, so he was appreciated by Feng Yong, and later recommended it to Wang Ping and was promoted to the military position.

Before Wang Han, he heard others say that Feng Langjun has the ability to know people, but anyone who is appreciated by him has official luck.

Later, this kind of thing happened to him, and Fang felt that this statement was really true.

Now that I am fortunate enough to be able to come to greet Feng Langjun in person, how can I not be happy?

Feng Yong was also happy when he saw that it was an old acquaintance, and asked, "Isn't General Wang following General Dangkou?" How will it be here? ”

"Back to Feng Langjun, after General Wang pacified Nanzhong, he got the permission of the prime minister to order Han to return to the land of Sanba and gather the people of Badi. Later, Meng Taishou transferred five captains, among which there were many Badi disciples, so General Wang ordered Han to lead the army to come with Meng Taishou. ”

The general Wang in Wang Han's mouth is naturally Wang Ping.

Wang Ping has been in Nanzhong for three years, first valued by Li Hui, and then appreciated by Zhuge Liang during the Southern Expedition.

When preparing to develop the Zhuti Copper Mine, he first controlled the five commanders composed of barbarians, and then was transferred to Zhuti as a county guard.

Coupled with the Ban Yu Barbarians in the land of Sanba, brave and good at fighting, and not afraid of death, Zhuge Old Demon took advantage of Wang Ping's relationship to gather more Ban Yu Barbarians in Badi, which can enhance the military strength of the Han Dynasty, and secondly, it can weaken the Badi Yi people, killing two birds with one stone.

It seems that the famous Wudang Flying Army in later generations has begun to take shape, but I don't know when Zhuge Old Demon plans to officially form it.

"I see, General Wang followed Meng Taishou to pacify Beishui, have you ever found out the news from Qiongdu?"

"Back to Feng Langjun, the Yi people of Qiongdu, I heard that the son of Gaoding and the former first fierce general came in person, and he surrendered without a fight, and many of Gaoding's old troops have come under his command, and now Huang Duwei and Zhang Duwei have led the army into Qiongdu."

"In this way, isn't Qiongdu determined without a fight?"

"Exactly."

"That's great!"

Feng Yong laughed, Gao Yuan and E Shun were just idle moves, when they asked them to go to Qiongdu to convene the old department of Gaoding, they were even mentally prepared for their rebellion, but they didn't expect to give themselves a big surprise.

Just when Feng Yong led the army into Yueyun, in a small courtyard next to the workshop school in Nanxiang County, Hanzhong, Zhang Xingyi was leaning on the couch reading a book and was fascinated.

She said that she came to Nanxiang to inspect her own industry, but since she arrived in Nanxiang, she has been holding Yeshi all day and night, and she rarely even goes out in the yard.

If it was changed to Jincheng, Zhang Xiahou would see her sitting all day long, and even read these miscellaneous books, I was afraid that I would scold her.

But here, no one can control her.

Even Li Qiu, the county magistrate of Nanxiang County, heard that she wanted a small courtyard next to the school, not only agreed, but also took her to choose a place in person.

He even told her that if he asked for anything, he would send someone to say it.

It really made her feel what it means for the stars to hold the moon, and she didn't even have such a good time when she was the queen's sister in Jincheng.

"Lady, Li Jialangjun asks to see you."

I only heard the maid come in and report to Zhang Xingyi.

"Langjun of the Li family? Who? ”

Zhang Xingyi stretched lazily and asked impatiently.

These days, many people have heard that Zhang Xiaoniang, who has an entanglement with Feng Langjun, has arrived in Nanxiang and has come to the door to ask to see her.

Zhang Xingyi thought that they were the relationship of the Zhang family at first, but later he saw more visitors, and when he heard them mention Feng Langjun in and out of his words, he realized that he actually wanted to get on the relationship with that negative person through himself.

After figuring out their purpose, Zhang Xingyi was so angry that he almost drove people out of the door.

At this time, when I heard that someone was visiting again, I felt a little bored in my heart.

"The person who came claimed to be Mu Niangzi's brother, saying that he had something to present to Niangzi."

"Mu Niangzi?" When Zhang Xingyi heard this name, his heart moved.

Nanxiang Mu Niangzi's reputation, who doesn't know in Hanzhong?

Her sister is like this, her brother, I think it's definitely not an ordinary person, right?

"Let him wait in the living room."

Zhang Xingyi got up, straightened his clothes, and then walked out of the door.

Li Tong sat in the living room with some trepidation, this time he secretly came over to see the little lady of the Zhang family without telling his sister, and he was really a little apprehensive.

I heard that this little lady Zhang looks like a flower and moon, but she doesn't know what her temperament is?

was guessing wildly, only to see that the door suddenly darkened, and someone walked in slowly, he didn't dare to take a closer look, so he quickly got up and bowed deeply: "Li Tong has seen Little Lady Zhang." ”

"Li Langjun doesn't have to be polite."

I heard a crisp voice say, "Please be seated." ”

"Thank you, little lady Zhang."

Li Tong only felt a burst of fragrance wafting by, and then a floor-length dress passed in front of him, and after feeling that the other party had already sat down on the main seat, he got up and lowered his head and sat back in his position.

"I don't know what Li Langjun came for?"

Hearing Zhang Xingyi's question, Li Tong dared to raise his head slightly, glanced at the top, but he didn't know that it was this glance, he only felt that his eyes were suddenly as bright as spring.

I saw the little lady sitting above, with bright eyes, elegant and beautiful, although she still looked a little immature, but she already faintly had a moving style.

It's really like clouds want clothes, flowers want to look!
