2. Planning.
"You're my brother-in-law?"
Zhu Wu walked over and stared at the old farmer.
In fact, he didn't have a bottom in his heart, there were not many memories left in this body, if it was really his relatives, it would not be a strange thing, but a happy event.
The old farmer has a big skeleton, but he is thin, his face is full of wind and frost, and he is worried about Zhu Wu for a long time, "I ...... I am Mr. Zhu's brother-in-law! ”
"This is us and the governor of Zhou Zhu!" Lan Yu scolded, muttering in her heart, is it the fifth brother and brother-in-law, I was better than him just now, this old boy is a few feet.
The old farmer's eyes showed some surprise, but it was a tall and thin offspring behind him, who said, "Let's look for my uncle, a blind date said that he voted for a red scarf and became the manager!" ”
"What's your uncle's name?" Zhu Wu asked.
Zhu ...... Heavy eight! ”
It turned out to be Zhu Chongba's brother-in-law, and Zhu Wu's heart was a little lost for no reason.
"He's from Haozhou, this and the state!" Lan Yu scolded again, "He is deputy, my fifth brother is right." ”
"Alright, stop!"
Zhu Wu shook his head and said to Zhu Chongba's relatives, "I am Brother Chongba, I will send someone to deliver a letter to him, the road is not smooth, you can take it in Hezhou first." ”
What the hell is going on? Your relatives of Zhu Chongba are looking for you, and they can actually find Hezhou.
Zhu Wu asked again, "What's your name?" ”
The farmer replied, "My name is Li Zhen!" This is Chongba's own nephew, Wenzheng. This is my son, Bao'er! That, is it my brother-in-law's brother? ”
"Hmm!" Zhu Wu walked back with them and said with a smile, "Good brothers who have been born and died together." ”
"That...... We were hungry when we didn't hit the meal! ”
………
Call......... Snore!
This guy, rice bucket!
One person and one pot of noodles, the wind and clouds are general, without chewing, it seems that from the mouth to the throat and eyes to the stomach, it is a line, just suck it in.
Zhu Wu swallowed and foamed, and the little girl Xiu'er also drooled.
"Wuguo, it doesn't seem to be enough!"
"Someone." Zhu Wuchong shouted outside, "Three more pots!" ”
"What, big brother, do you have pickles?" Li Zhen took the empty basin, squatted on the ground and asked, "I have a heavy mouth!" ”
"Pickles!" Zhu Wu shouted outside again, turned around and asked, "Why are you so hungry?" Isn't Brother Chong's hometown from Guzhuang Village, Haozhou? Why are you here? Why are there only three of you? No women? ”
Li Zhen's face was bitter, "This is a child without a mother, it's a long story!" Chongba's family has been separated since his father died, his sister married me, I took my family in Huaidong, and then the famine in Haozhou really couldn't survive, and Chongba's brother brought his family to join me......"
Going around and around, my head hurts, this Li Zhen is not a sharp tongue, and she barely listens to it for a long time.
"What about the rest of the family?" Zhu Wu asked again.
"They're all dead!"
The descendant who spoke was called Zhu Wenzheng, Zhu Chongba's nephew, thin and tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes as standard of the Zhu family.
"All dead?"
"Well, the sick and the starved, all of them are dead anyway!" Zhu Wenzheng looked at Zhu Wu, "Uncle, you and my uncle are really lifelong friends?" ”
"Is that fake?" Zhu Wu said with a smile, "Brother Chong saved my life!" ”
"Uncle, how big an official is the chief? My villagers who fled the famine said, the manager can manage everything? ”
Zhu Wu liked this stunned boy a little, and said with a smile, "Yes, just take care of everything." ”
"Hey, my family won't have to go hungry anymore!"
……
The artisan workshop next to the Navy Wharf is the most lively place in the whole Hezhou, and it is tinkling all day long.
Xi Yingzhen didn't go out as soon as he returned to the city, this old way is considered an alternative in the Dingyuan army, everyone knows that Zhu Wu's trust in him is extraordinary, but unless necessary, he never shows up in front of people, making fun.
When Zhu Wu came in, Xi Ying really wrote and drew on the paper, and when he saw Zhu Wu coming in, it seemed to be indiscriminate, but he hid it very secretly.
"You old way." Zhu Wu smiled, "Are you afraid that I will peek at your gunpowder formula?" ”
Xi Yingzhen's face did not change, "Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years!" As he spoke, he asked, "What are you doing at such a late hour?" ”
Zhu Wu sat down in the room, "Old Dao, our artillery is still not enough, and there are newly researched firearms, the next step I plan to take down Chuzhou, the cities on the edge of Chaohu Lake, and then I have to fight Jinling." There are not enough artillery, so you can only fill it with human lives!
There is also the research of the firearm, although that thing is slower, but it is faster than a bow and arrow, and it is easy to train. You have to think of a way to get a few hundred of them out. ”
"You kill Lao Dao!" Xi Yingzhen jumped up like stepping on a mouse, "Hundreds? Dozens of skilled craftsmen have been busy for months to get Li Ji a little bit, and there are hundreds of them as soon as you open your mouth!
You are really used to being in charge, and you don't care how many meters or how many generals there are at home!
The weapons and armor of the Dingyuan army are enough for the craftsmen to work, and you are not willing to make do with the artillery, so you can only work slowly.
Lao Dao also wants to do as much as possible, but the key is that there is no one. In this way, if you find another 1,000 craftsmen, I will open up and double the output! ”
Xi Yingzhen vomited bitterness, and Zhu Wu also understood his suffering.
"We are now old, less than 20,000 people." Zhu Wu groaned and said, "The soldiers recruited in the future will start with the auxiliary soldiers first, and the armor and weapons will not be in a hurry for the craftsman workshop." Organize craftsmen and make artillery with all their might. I can only give you a month, and now it's almost winter, and I'm going to spend the New Year in Jinling! ”
Xi Yingzhen suddenly fell silent, and then smiled, "Got it figured?" ”
"What do you have in mind?" Zhu Wu was puzzled.
"When I first went out of Haozhou, I told you that I would go south to take Jinling and enter Jiangsu and Zhejiang." Xi Yingzhen smiled, "You've been hesitating in your heart, but now you've thought about it?" ”
Zhu Wu smiled bitterly, "Actually, I have thought about it a long time ago, but I just don't want to say it, I can't help it if I don't say it now, a bunch of people follow behind me, and I can't let people down!" ”
"That's right." Xi Yingzhen said with a smile, "The world is in chaos, and the virtuous live in it." You Zhu Xiaowu are no worse than others, why don't you fight, even if you don't fight, others will let you go in the future? ”
These words are the thorn in Zhu Wu's heart.
Yes, it's good that you don't come out on your own, since you came out in this troubled world, you have embarked on the road of no return, either to hit all the enemies, or to wait to be beaten.
Listen to Xi Yingzhen continue, "I'm going to go out of the city these days, you have to send a team of elites to me!" ”
"Where are you going?" Zhu Wu was strange, "You don't stare at the craftsman's workshop, what are you going out to toss?" ”
Xi Yingzhen smiled, "You, you really should read more!" This place has been a treasure of feng shui since ancient times! ”
As he spoke, he mysteriously took out two black bumps from the cabinet in the room, how familiar Zhu Wu looked.
"Coal?"
Xi Yingzhen laughed, "Yes, coal! ”
said, and smiled again, "We have coal here, there is iron on the side of Taiping Road, and on the other side of the river is a grain-producing area, a land of fish and rice." ”
"As long as you stand here, 100,000 Jiashi can annex the southeast, and the coastal road leads directly to Liaodong."
"Xiao Wu, throughout the ages, there are few rebels, but there are few people who are so good at you!"
