Chapter 237: Mighty (Part II)
"Did he really shave his hair and become a monk?"
"Yes, the national surname."
"I know, since he is willing to shave his hair and become a monk, then let him be a monk. That guy is a lonely character, I don't believe that he can really be a green light ancient Buddha, and he has survived. ”
An order was issued to let Shi Lang recruit troops to form Zhongquan Town, but Shi Lang did not come to return to his life. After listening to the report at this moment, Zheng Chenggong was not in a hurry, so he put Shi Lang's matter aside.
Last year, Chen Kai rescued a large number of people from Guangzhou, these people poured into the Ming army occupied areas in Chaozhou and Zhangzhou, according to Chen Kai's statement, it is absolutely impossible to divide the land, so during this time, Zheng Chenggong recruited soldiers from it, and arranged conscription, and Ye Yiyun of Chaozhou also creatively proposed to let the people of Chaozhou who were unwilling to serve conscription pay money and grain to hire Guangzhou people to serve for them.
However, suddenly there are so many more people, but the arable land area and grain production have not increased, and these people also have to eat, so they can only continue to consume the stored grain. Fortunately, Chen Kai held the Zhongzuo Institute, and the inventory was not as cheap as in history, but Chen Kai's reward for defending the city and the subsequent relief launched by Hong Xu still consumed a large amount of grain stock, which all increased the pressure on the Ming army's grain stockpile.
Recently, Zheng Chenggong is thinking about where to get another batch of grain back, after all, only when the family has a foundation can the heart be stable. The fine work has been sprinkled out, and the information from the past is also being analyzed, Zheng Chenggong is more inclined to Yongning Acropolis and Chongwu Qianhu City, these two places have a lot of grain and grass savings, very fat, and it is worth taking a bite. All that is needed now is to figure out the situation around us and be prepared.
Aside from these, the new rules of maritime trade, the new military law regulations, and the training of the new tactics have too many serious things to do, and Zheng Chenggong is really too lazy to take care of Shi Lang's stinky temper. In fact, he is not unable to be easier, but Chen Kai is also closed in South Australia, reading every day to nourish his spirit, or teaching Chen Yonghua, Ke Ping and Hong Lei, these disciples some knowledge, even the Ordnance Bureau is absolutely determined, let alone come back to help him.
"Are there any rumors lately?"
"Also, it's just not much, it's only limited to those Zheng family disciples who are still passing it on. In addition, there are no new jokes, speaking of which, they are all the original ones, probably most people are tired of talking about it. ”
"Well, rumors stop at the wise. It's a pity that this time it was a little surprisingly stubborn. ”
"The surname of the country, I think, might as well let Jing Cheng try, in Chaozhou, in Guangzhou, this time in the Zhongzuo Institute, every time he insists on doing things that seem to have no chance of winning at first glance, didn't the result still let him break out? Maybe there's a windfall this time. ”
Hong Xu's temperament, Zheng Chenggong knows best, this person is among the generals under Zheng Zhilong, on martial arts, on army command, on training, on land warfare, round naval warfare, on business thinking, in fact, not very outstanding, but the ability to see people and things is a must, it seems that Chen Bao also gave Hong Xu a nickname that he must win every gamble.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is really as Hong Xu said, there is nothing that Chen Kai can't do, in fact, it is not that Chen Kai's ability is exaggerated, but more because Chen Kai can always use a special method to open a new way in a desperate situation.
"I'll think about it."
Thinking about it, it will only be in addition to dealing with business, Zheng Chenggong has been very busy recently, and there is no way. On the other hand, Shi Lang, who shaved his hair as a monk, has been very idle recently, especially after the shaving was completed, he changed his monk's clothes, read the scriptures for a few days, and knocked on the wooden fish for a few days, only to find that Zheng Chenggong didn't seem to pick up his stubble, and there was no decline in his heart, and there was no way to live his life.
"Dashuai, this chicken is roasted, can you taste it?"
"What to taste, just finished eating one, what is there to taste. Go, go, go, play tricks to let so-and-so see if you rabbit cub has regressed. ”
Leaning on the edge of the pillar in the courtyard of the meditation room, there are his own soldiers and family members waiting by the side. They are all meatless and unhappy soldiers, and the food has faded out of the birds, and Shi Lang doesn't really want to become a monk, and he is too lazy to taboo these. Meat is also inevitable with wine, and in this regard, the monks, and even the abbot, dare not talk much, so they have to let them spoil this pure place of Buddhism.
"Okay, you can take a look, handsome."
As he spoke, the soldier walked to the middle of the courtyard, drew his waist knife, saluted Shi Lang, and danced. In less than a moment, it seemed that he felt that a person's dry martial arts practice was a little boring, Shi Lang waved his hand, and another personal soldier obeyed the promise and fought with the previous one.
"Whoever wins, the chicken will be rewarded!"
The interest came, and the frizziness in my heart was temporarily reduced a lot. However, the victory and defeat on this side have not yet been decided, and a late family member hurriedly came, but he lowered his head and looked like a primary school student who had made a mistake and saw the head teacher.
"You mean, you have a dispute with Huang Ting's subordinates?"
"If you go back to the master, the villain is incompetent."
"Damn, Huang Ting, this bastard, is looking at this guy unpleasantly, he came to the door himself."
Wine, Shi Lang didn't drink it, but he was struggling here, his eyes couldn't go up or down, Huang Ting's side was practicing the right pioneer town is in full swing, it is said that Zheng Chenggong also plans to expand the scale of the right pioneer town to more than 2,000 soldiers and horses in four battalions, isn't that the same as his left pioneer town?
It can't be said that the enemy is very red when he meets, but with his temperament, he can't look down on others, especially if he doesn't see others living better than him. What's more, he already had a knot in his heart for Huang Ting, and as soon as he heard that it was Huang Ting's people who had a dispute with his family, his anger went straight to Tianlinggai.
"I have all the manpower, I have to give Huang Ting a good look this time!"
Just do it, Shi Lang immediately ordered the soldiers and family members, and left the temple in a hurry. This Buddhist gate is pure, and it can be peaceful for a while, but it didn't take long for Huang Ting's right pioneer town camp to make a lot of trouble.
"Damn, you eat things outside the house, people who dare to touch Lao Tzu, smash me, smash it to death!"
brought a group of personal soldiers and family members to the camp and asked to see Huang Ting by name. Huang Ting knew that Shi Lang had been angry recently, and he didn't dare to stiffen his head, so he invited him into the big tent, but he didn't say a few words, Shi Lang's temper came up, and he changed from asking for explanations to spitting and scolding.
After many years of friendship, Huang Ting has always been affected by Shi Lang, and Shi Xian still has aid in Zuo Zhen in his hands, so he didn't dare to stop it, for fear that the situation would expand, so he hurriedly hid his face and left, not daring to stop him a little.
After a long time, the smashing in the big tent had ended, and Shi Lang and his party left the camp of the Right Pioneer Town with a domineering and swagger, but this strange news soon spread throughout the Right Pioneer Town, and even the entire Houpu camp. Huang Ting looked at all this with an iron face, and the long-standing dissatisfaction quickly turned into resentment, almost dripping blood.
