Section 5 Preliminary proceedings
Seeing Chen Xinji come in with the two of them, Yan Changwu hurriedly stood up and arched his hand: "Thank you Uncle Chen for your help, the little nephew has today, so I don't know ...... Uncle Yang?" ”
"He has left Taiwan and is in a hurry to go back to do business, and now your share of the business is under his supervision, plus his own, his task is not light, stay in Taiwan for one more day and not see a day of silver!" Chen Xinji explained.
"That's, sails together, ten thousand taels of silver!" Yan Changwu blurted out, but Chen Xinji was stunned for a moment.
If Yan Changwu was his superior, Chen Xinji would really stretch out his thumb and praise: "High, really high!" ”
Listening to Yan Changwuwen Zou said: "Uncle Lao Yang and Uncle Chen bothered to ......"
Chen Xinji stretched out a finger and said, "Stop!" ”
Yan Changwu stopped, and was taught by Chen Xinji: "We are not in vain, we are worrying blindly, if you are useless, we will not help you, don't learn from those literati." ”
"Sit down!" He sat down with Yan Changwu and said to Yan Changwu: "You behaved well, that knife went down, your face did not change, and most of the leaders recognized you as the big leader, I thought that half of the people would be good with you." ”
Chen Xinji praised it, but at Yan Changwu's age, he really couldn't do such a thing.
It can be said that Yan Changwu's knife in exchange for the position of the big dragon finally sat firmly.
The boss of each corner believes in the supremacy of force, and the young man with his hair is ruthless enough, and he will have it in the future, follow him, and he should not suffer!
Chen Xinji told Yan Changwu: "Before your Uncle Yang left, he left two people for you to watch the door, so you don't have to let them do other things." ”
He said calmly: "Whoever dares not obey you, they can kill him!" ”
The two knelt down and kowtowed to Yan Changwu and said, "The water is deep and shallow, please say hello to my uncle!" ”
"Get up!"
"Aunt Xie!"
The two stood up, Yan Changwu saw that they were less than in their early twenties, but their eyes were fierce, well-trained, and they stood tall with their hands pressed on their swords.
It turned out that Yang Tiansheng adopted orphans every year, or to do business, or to be a sailor, or a killer like deep water, so having a loyal subordinate and working for him was one of the keys to success, and many tycoons did the same.
The water depth and water shallow identity are slaves, and they are scheduled to become the "dowry" of the future lady, they came to the front station first, and even the slave deed has been sent to the Yan Mansion for collection.
After learning of the situation, Yan Changwu couldn't help but be overjoyed, he was not afraid of the two of them backlashing, and immediately appointed the two of them to be the deputy captains of his personal guards, responsible for protecting him personally, and the captain was Zhang Shouyun, the son of Uncle Zhang.
At present, there are very few people he can trust, and he can use one of them.
Chen Xinji introduced the two of them, and saw that Shuang'er came with food and drink, so he wanted to leave, but Yan Changwu did not allow it, saying that he asked his uncle to sit, he ate it quickly, and then discussed the plan, so Chen Xinji drank tea for the time being, and Yan Changwu came to gobble it up.
……
This time, an old hen was stewed, kept stewed, the heat was very sufficient, plus scrambled eggs with green onions, a dish of water, salt and peanuts, a stir-fried vegetables and a bowl of rice, Yan Changwu was the time to grow his body, and he put it all into his stomach.
He has a great appetite, which makes Shuang'er very happy.
The young master is good and energetic, and she is happy.
Chen Xinji noticed a detail, Yan Changwu drank the soup dry, leaving not a single grain of rice, and nodded secretly.
thinks that the Yan family's tutor is good, after all, the elders run the boat, how good the treatment can be, even the leader is drinking stinky water with everyone, eating salted meat, and there is little waste.
The elders endure too much hardship, and give the younger generations the best possible life, all of which are rich and luxurious.
This Yan Changwu is a top pirate of the second generation, Boss Yan will not treat him lightly, but he has not wasted it, which is a good thing!
……
After eating, Shuang'er called the servant woman to clean up the dishes, make tea with her own hands, and serve it to the young master and distinguished guests.
Chen Xinji joked to Yan Changwu and said: "Red sleeves add fragrance to study at night, there is such a confidante with a red face, loyal to you, you are blessed with a virtuous nephew!" ”
Yan Changwu said unceremoniously: "Shuang'er is very good, I especially like her loyalty." ”
He turned to compliment Chen Xinji and said, "Shuang'er was watched by thieves, fortunately Uncle Yang and Uncle Chen took action, otherwise I would almost not be able to save her." ”
"It's a trifle!" Chen Xinji couldn't help but say proudly: "It's nothing." ”
He couldn't help but smile and said: "Lao Yang (natural) is really interesting, he actually wants you to marry his daughter after at least eight years, hahaha!" ”
Yan Changwu couldn't cry or laugh, but he also understood that if it weren't for his children's in-laws, people would take great risks to help you just because they were friends with you, who do you think you are.
After all, it was not so authentic, he diverted the topic and said: "Although the little nephew is the leader, he is sincere to my leaders, only Uncle Chen is here alone, and I hope Uncle Chen will help me!" ”
Chen Xinji said solemnly: "Don't worry, since I helped you to come to power, there is no reason to stand by and watch!" ”
At that moment, the two discussed closely and decided on the future affairs.
……
Chen Xinji was not in a hurry and made the charter:
One is the population, no one, nothing can be done, don't think that the ancients were stupid, in fact, the ancients sold you without negotiation!
The source of the population is mainly on the mainland, and if you go there, you can cheat or buy or rob.
As a pirate, you have your own spokesperson on the mainland, as long as you give money, you can do anything for you, just sit back and wait for someone to receive it.
Moreover, Chen Xinji said that when the situation calms down, he will go to the mainland in person and return to Haicheng County, Zhangzhou, the hometown of the two, to recruit the township party.
The second is to prepare for spring ploughing, and the plans are:
Go to the mainland to buy more farming cattle and ship them back to Taiwan.
At that time, there was no machinery, and the fields were cultivated by the power of oxen, and more cattle had their own benefits.
"What crops is Uncle going to grow?"
"Rice, corn!" Chen Xinji is very experienced and authentic.
Rice is eaten by people, and corn is eaten by livestock.
"You can also add sweet potatoes!" Yan Changwu said silently.
However, Chen Xinji said hesitantly: "I also know that sweet potatoes have a high yield, but the people don't eat it, they use it to feed pigs!" ”
China is a country that eats rice, and no one will use sweet potatoes as a staple food whenever possible.
"When you don't have to eat, you have to eat everything." Yan Changwu said in a sullen voice: "After the harvest, build more warehouses and put away the grain, don't panic!" ”
"Okay, I'll set aside a quarter of my land to grow it." As soon as Chen Xinji finished speaking, he heard Yan Changwu say: "There are potatoes!" ”
He couldn't help laughing: "The virtuous nephew is really a supporter of foreign things, okay, I will make arrangements to expand the planting area." ”
At this time, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, sweet potatoes and potatoes had arrived in China from the Americas.
The third is to repair the house.
It is expected that the population will increase, cut down wood and burn bricks, and bring more bricklayers from the mainland to build strong blue brick houses in case of typhoons.
"In addition to building houses, we also need to build roads!" Yan Changwu is undoubtedly authentic.
If you want to get rich, build the road first, Chen Xinji obviously didn't have this awareness, but he felt the strength of Yan Changwu's words, and passed with a smile.
Fourth, we must purchase materials, the current Taiwan is an out-and-out foreign land, a desert island, lack of everything, there is no production at all, so it is necessary to prepare some application materials.
Fifth, prepare the army!
It was necessary to recruit troops and horses, and it was initially decided to recruit 500 people, and according to Chen Xinji's idea, a system of guards was established and distributed to the army.
"No, I want full-time soldiers! Train in peacetime, fight in wartime! ”
"I can afford it!"
