"Lord Governor, you're going too far, aren't you? Now you look outside, look at the groups of Liao people on the shore, what are these people doing? The entire Liao people in Liaodong are our tenant farmers and military households, and we have not given anyone the name of heaven and earth, but you have already sold it on a large scale, making people run to southern Liaoning! Zu Dashou roared excitedly.

A group of big families in Liaoxi and Liaodong are also the same excited, everyone can't control their emotions, it's better if they don't see it with their own eyes, while complaining to Ma Shilong about this matter, on the other hand, the matter of population loss is going on under their noses, who can control their emotions?

"Please order these things to be stopped immediately, Lord Overseer! We can no longer condone the misdeeds of the generals and officials of Jiliao, these Liao people are tenant farmers of our families! They all owe us a lot of silver taels, and they just ran away in vain, who do you want for this account? Wu Xiang's thinking is clear and to the point.

Ma Shilong spread his hands: "Don't be so anxious, I really don't know!" Okay, okay, I'll pass on the order immediately, and in the future, no more generals and officials will be allowed to get involved in the trafficking of Liao people in the area of Huludao and Ningyuan City, is this okay? ”

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, and a group of generals from the Liaodong family in Liaoxi, everyone was a little confused, they were all at the moment of the volcanic eruption, and they couldn't hold back their tempers one by one, but they didn't expect Ma Shilong to agree so happily?

Everyone's voices immediately lowered, after all, this is Ma Shilong's Chinese army tent, if he does too much, he feels a little rude.

"Is this true?" Zu Dashou wondered.

"Naturally, General Lu Zhijia, you immediately go and give orders to all armies!" Ma Shilong waved his big hand.

Lu Zhijia hurriedly took the order and left, and agreed very simply.

Ma Shilong smiled slightly: "Isn't it?" I didn't know before, I only had to build Huludao, and other things were not up to me, a former military governor, to have the final say, right? If you have something, you should go to the overseer. ”

In the face of Ma Shilong's good attitude, the anger of a group of big families in Liaoxi and Liaodong seemed to be hit the cotton ball, but they were helpless, and they wanted to find someone to quarrel, but they didn't accept it.

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang and a large group of Liaodong families looked at each other and had nothing to say.

Ma Shilong laughed: "Everyone is hungry, right?" So, I'll have you served ramen! This is our authentic ramen in the northwest, the taste is very authentic, come, come, just have a good opportunity today, everyone have a good taste! It is at last that so many generals and adults have come to me, and I must entertain them well, and if you are willing, you can stay with me for a longer time. I'm going to have people arrange for everyone to rest in their tents. ”

People not only have a good attitude, but also very enthusiastic, why are they angry?

Zu Dashou looked at Wu Xiang, and Wu Xiang signaled to go back first.

"Since Lord Governor has ordered that human trafficking should no longer be carried out in the area of Ningyuan City and Huludao, we have nothing else to do, and we dare not disturb Lord Governor's military affairs." Zu Dashou said.

Ma Shilong smiled kindly: "Don't delay, when all the generals want to come here to play, they are all welcome!" Military affairs are inexhaustible, so you can't be busy building slaves all year round, right? However, I have something to say in the head, our soldiers and generals of Jiliao ran to Liaodong, which was sent by the imperial court, and there was only one purpose, that is, to fight Jiannu, as for the Liao people to run to our side, this is really not something that everyone can control, and I hope that you generals and adults can restrain your tenant farmers, and don't come to me to find talents. ”

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang and the generals of the Liaodong family in Liaoxi, hearing Ma Shilong say this, came up again angrily! But what people say seems to make sense! It seems that they can't say anything to refute it.

"Lord Governor, it's not that we don't restrain the tenant farmers below! They heard that Wei Bao had food there, and they all rushed to go, there are so many people, we can't tie up all the tenant farmers, right? Millions of people, where to take care of them? Wu Xiang said.

Ma Shilong nodded and said, "That's true, but we can't help it." Also, since you have all signed a contract with the Heaven and Earth Society, you should give everyone to the Heaven and Earth Society as soon as possible, right? Isn't that the truth that the tenant farmers don't run away on their own? ”

Wu Xiang, who is very eloquent, choked on Ma Shilong's words, and didn't know how to refute it, it seems that the generals and officials of the Jiliao department are desperately doing human trafficking, but they have hardships, they have been wronged, they are forced to earn this silver, and they all occupy the reason?

Not only Wu Xiang, but also Zu Dashou and a large group of big families in Liaoxi and Liaodong were also annoyed, but no one could find any reason to refute Ma Shilong's words.

If you say that Zu Dashou can only give Wei Bao the old and weak, and not give Wei Bao the order of the young and middle-aged Liaomin, wouldn't it be a slap in the mouth?

In fact, Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, and Liaodong Liaodong are indeed suffering, first of all, from Sun Chengzong proposed that Wei Bao want to buy Liaomin, to today, it has only been more than ten days.

Where in the world is there a reason to buy and sell?

Not to mention the forced buying and selling, where is the reason why a very large plan has just been put forward and the transaction will start immediately?

Human trafficking is not livestock trafficking, you have to go door-to-door to make preparations first, first see what kind of Liao people you have in your hands, count everyone, divide them into grades or something, and then start trading with Wei Bao's Tiandi Society.

What's more, Wei Bao said that he would first mortgage four million taels of silver to the Wu family, but from Wei Bao's words, to this day, Wu Xiang has not received a letter from home, that is to say, Wei Bao's people have not sent the silver at all!

You haven't paid any money, how can our people give it to the people of the Heaven and Earth Society casually?

The details of these transactions, how did Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang and others explain it clearly to Ma Shilong, the generals of the Jiliao system?

Anyway, the big families in Liaodong and Liaoxi are not only looking for Sun Chengzong, but also looking for Wei Bao, although they know that Wei Bao may be in the military camp in Jiliao, and they may even accompany Sun Chengzong together, it is impossible to find it!

But are these things clear to Ma Shilong?

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, and a large group of generals from Liaoxi and Liaodong, everyone stayed for a while, and after a few words of gossip, the dumb people who ate Coptis chinensis left one after another.

Wei Bao then walked out of the inner tent.

"Wei Gongzi, how is it? Can I do that? Whatever they do, what should we do, what else should we do. Hehe. Ma Shilong happily asked Wei Bao for credit, and he felt that the way he dealt with Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang and a large group of Liaodong family generals just now was very good.

Wei Bao nodded and said, "Very good, but, Lord Dudu, you should be more careful in the future, right?" Try not to have a head-on conflict with the border armies of Liaoxi and Liaodong, and I am not short of these few silvers. ”

"Understand, understand, Wei Gongzi is naturally not short of millions of taels of silver, but we didn't go everywhere to recruit the common people, the Liao people all came to Ningyuan City and Huludao by themselves, this kind of silver sent to the door, no wonder we are not?" Ma Shilong said with a smile.

Wei Bao felt that the affairs of Liaodong had been dealt with almost completely, and there was no need to stay any longer, so he wanted to go back to Guannei, so he said to Ma Shilong: "Lord Dudu, I want to go back to Guannei, you and the generals and the stewards of the Heaven and Earth Society left behind to deal with it." I would like to ask the general to send a team of men and horses to send me in! Leave today. ”

"Yes, what's wrong with that? I send my pro-soldier team to escort! Foolproof, on the ground of Jiliao, who would dare to touch the students of the Inspector? In that case, can we still have light on the faces of Jiliao people? Ma Shilong immediately agreed: "It's just too urgent, right?" Wei Gongzi will stay for two more days and eat more ramen from our hometown. ”

Wei Bao smiled, no matter how delicious the ramen is, it's not the only delicious thing in the world, right? But it seems that for Ma Shilong in the northwest, ramen is the best thing in the world, and it seems that he expresses his enthusiasm to people and invites people to eat ramen.

"Thank you, my chef has learned how to make ramen, and when I think of him, I will eat ramen for a while. I was in a hurry to get back to Kannai because I had to go to Beijing next month to catch the exam. Wei Bao laughed.

"Oh, that's the case, then it's not good for me to keep Wei Gongzi anymore, Wei Gongzi, please rest assured, even if Zu Dashou and they prevent the Liao people from coming to Ningyuan City and the surroundings of Huludao, so many people rush to this side, they can't stop it! In less than a month, all the Liao people in Liaodong will be allowed to set foot on the land of southern Liaoning! Ma Shilong said happily.

Wei Bao nodded, smiled and agreed, secretly thinking that this is a matter between your Jiliao generals and officials and the generals of the Liaodong family in Liaoxi, but it's not that I can't give up money and food! I don't care what you like.

However, from the original meaning, Wei Bao is still willing to take less people from the Liaodong family in Liaoxi and Liaodong and hand over less grain in the coming year, no one will dislike the silver and more food, right?

Besides, with millions of people at once, for Wei Bao, the more severe food pressure is already approaching him! It is still unclear how many people will eventually be brought in this wave from the areas controlled by Liaodong and Jiannu, and from the Monan Mongolia region, but Wei Bao estimates that three million will never be able to run away, relying only on the grain harvested in the autumn of Weijiazhuang, and the 10 million stone grain and grass purchased from the big households in Liaodong and Liaodong last time when he took the Xiucai exam, it is definitely not enough!

10 million stone grain and grass, knock out the grain ears and wheat husks, at most three or four million stone pure grain! Moreover, because these pure grains are all stored grains accumulated by large households in western and eastern Liaoning, many of them have become moldy and deteriorated, so they can only be used to feed livestock, and they have to be discounted!

Not to mention persisting until winter, such a huge population will hurt Wei Bao's brain before winter!

Wei Bao must find a big grain entry channel before winter! Otherwise, not to mention cooperating with the huge war against Jiannu, if there is not enough food, just arranging for millions of people to spend the winter will become a big problem, and it will cause a popular uprising, and the pressure of millions of hungry people will fall on his own shoulders, and this pressure is greater than the pressure of the sky falling!

After chatting with Ma Shilong, Wei Bao took Lin Wenbiao and others away.

"Your Excellency, are you too polite to the students of the Overseer? You don't have to be the same even if the other party is a student of the Overseer, right? Ma Shilong's general Li Chengxian said.

"Not only because Wei Bao is a disciple of Master Inspector, but you see that Yuan Chonghuan of Ning Yuan is also a disciple of Master Inspector, I am not so polite, right? The key is that this Wei Gongzi is a living god of wealth, he is very good at running at a young age, I think he will definitely be a heroic figure in the future! Don't you want to make money by pointing at him? You can't offend anyone who offends the God of Wealth! The hillbillies in Liaodong just couldn't understand this, so they suffered a big loss! Otherwise, the conditions given by Wei Gongzi are not bad, they don't have to carry so many burdens of Liao people, and they can still get a lot of grain from Weijiazhuang every year, they don't want it themselves, what can they do? Ma Shilong said with a smile.

"What the Governor says makes sense! This Wei Gongzi is young, but he is indeed a powerful person! It's still the vision of the Inspector, and if you accept such a genius from the local area, our Jiliao military horses will be much better in the future. Li Chengxian nodded in agreement.

"Yes, also, you go to the barracks now, say hello to the battalion officers, and then there are Liao people who have crashed into Ningyuan City and the surroundings of Huludao, let's send them to the people of the Heaven and Earth Society!" Don't blatantly bring people over to various places, don't clash head-on with the Liaodong border army, and don't let the local families seize our handle, understand? Ma Shilong admonished.

"Don't worry, my lord, we all understand." Li Chengxian said with a smile.

The two of them then got up laughing.

Li Chengxian had to follow Ma Shilong's instructions to go out to spread the word and do things, and Ma Shilong sent him one.

"My lord, these Liaodong hillbillies are really, they have a good life, they have to toss blindly, now the Liaomin heard the wind and ran to Huludao without their lives, they were in a hurry again, they knew it was so, why bother in the first place?" Li Chengxian complained: "Now that he sees that we have gotten some silver, he wants to kill us." It's just pink eye. ’

"Hehe, bear with me, we got a big bargain, can't we give people some good looks? Anyway, everyone is also doing the great cause of resisting the construction of slaves together, and we must not fight, and the fight will make a big mess, which will make it difficult for me, and even more difficult for the Inspector to do. You must make this clear to the generals and adults. Ma Shilong said with a smile.

"Cheng, my lord, I'll go and talk about it." Li Chengxian smiled and quickened his pace.

"Go early and come back early, waiting for you to come back and eat ramen." Ma Shilong said happily.

"Come back, my lord, I don't need to send it, I'll be back tomorrow at noon to eat my adult's ramen." Li Chengxian looked back and smiled as he walked.

Ma Shilong thought of Bai Huahua's silver coming in, rubbed his hands happily, and said to the guard: "Hurry up, give me a big pot of ramen!" ”

"Yes! Your Excellency, you're all set! The guard immediately agreed. Because Ma Shilong is so good, Lord Dudu's private chef has to prepare ramen noodles at any time all day long. The noodles are all good noodles specially sent by Wei Gongzi, and Ma Shilong has eaten them beautifully in the past two days.

Wei Bao left Ma Shilong's camp and said to Lin Wenbiao: "Prepare and leave in a while!" I have just told Ma Shilong that he will send his own soldiers to escort us back to the customs by land. ”

"The president is relieved that he is ready to leave at any time. With Ma Shilong's escort back to the Guannei, it was foolproof, and the generals of the Liaodong family in Liaoxi did not dare to act rashly. Lin Wenbiao said.

"I'm not afraid of them now! It was a bit careless to go to Jinzhou at the beginning, I should have connected with the Inspector before entering the city, and now that I have met with the Inspector, what do they dare to do? You send someone to inform the main station of the Statistics Bureau and the secretariat Wang Qiuya, and ask the people from the headquarters to return to Weijiazhuang quickly to meet me! Liaodong transports the construction of Liaomin and Liaonan, as well as the construction of roads in the area controlled by Jiannu, let the people below arrange it, and everything will go according to plan! If there is any change, report it in time! Wei Bao said.

"President, don't worry, I'll arrange it immediately!" Lin Wenbiao agreed: "Now that the Liaonan General Management Office of the Heaven and Earth Society has been established, the personnel are all fully equipped, and the Huludao side has also arranged capable stewards, and the subordinate managers of several Tiandihui branches in the area controlled by Jiannu are also capable senior agents of the Statistics Bureau, so there will not be too many problems." ”

Wei Bao was a little relieved, trying not to let himself think about the huge food shortage problem that he would have to face next, and breathe a sigh of relief.

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang and a large group of generals in Liaoxi and Liaodong were not as comfortable as Wei Bao, and they went to see Ma Shilong with a belly of anger, and seemed to have received Ma Shilong's reply, but it seemed that nothing had been negotiated, and they were all empty.

"Brother, then Ma Shilong is obviously perfunctory to us, if we can catch these fleeing Liao people, do we still need to find him? He just said that he would never condone the smuggling of Liao people by his subordinates, and once he found that someone was smuggling Liao people in the locality, he would try his best to deal with it. He also said that let's also watch the Liao people, and don't let the people run to Ningyuan City and Huludao by themselves. It sounds like he is talking to us, but he has said so much, not a word of use, it is all nonsense! In my opinion, they should steal and sell the Liaomin, or they will sell it secretly! Take the Liao people to the hands of the people of the Heaven and Earth Society, and directly exchange one number of people for one or two lines of silver, this kind of good thing, not to mention the officials, even the soldiers will rush to do it! Wu Xiang chattered endlessly to Zu Dashou.

Zu Dashou was impatient: "Then what do you want me to do?" The area around Ningyuan City is directly under the Governor's Mansion, and all the soldiers and horses stationed in Jiliao are stationed, can we directly break in and block the coastline? In this case, where will the people of Jiliao go immediately? Two sides fight directly? ”

Wu Xiang was silent, this is really not good, the station of the soldiers and horses of the Jiliao Department must not trespass, otherwise it will really cause a big incident.

A group of generals from the Liaodong family in western Liaodong were also silent.

After a while, someone muttered softly: "General Zu, why don't we hurry around and arrest people and sell them to the Heaven and Earth Society and Wei Bao?" If this is delayed for another month or two, I am afraid that there will be no one in Liaodong! When the time comes, we won't be able to catch anything. ”

There is a person who said this, and immediately more than half of the people echoed this point of view, saying that they couldn't let the soldiers and horses of the Ji Liao system make all the money, and the Liao people were theirs, so why did they cheapen the soldiers and horses of the Ji Liao system?

Zu Dashou said irritably: "Have you forgotten? Why should we give all the young and middle-aged Liao people in our hands to Wei Bao and to the Heaven and Earth Society? If there is no population at all in our hands, there are no ordinary people at all, and every household in our family has become a bare pole, what value will it have in the eyes of the court in the future? Where did these millions of Liao people come from? From the early days of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, generation after generation of big families kept coming from the customs either by buying or by soliciting! This is our foundation! ”

"However, now that we have signed a contract with Wei Bao, what should we do? If you had been a little tougher, why now? Now that the contract has been signed, General Zu, you have also promised the Inspector, why don't you simply organize people to start selling people!? It will be too late to delay any longer. The legs are all on Liaomin's own body, and we can't stop it! ”

"The conditions offered by the main Wei Bao are too attractive! Liao Min heard that when he went to southern Liaoning, he would have a settling-in fee of one or two silver, and a ration of twenty catties of pure grain, so why wouldn't he run over? If we want to keep people, we can't go below this condition, people are homesick, and after staying in one place for a long time, who wants to go to a strange place again? ”

After saying this, some people agreed with the new viewpoint, saying that we should also stick food and silver to retain people.

"No! That Wei Bao is now wealthy, and he has got tens of millions of taels of silver and tens of millions of stone grains and grass for nothing, and we are willing to give one or two silver and twenty catties of pure grain rations, and Wei Bao will definitely double it immediately! His silver and food were originally ours, and he didn't feel distressed when he spent them, can we afford to spend them with him? ”

When this point of view came out, he immediately suppressed the previous point of view that he would take silver and grain to fight against Wei Bao.

Everyone discussed and discussed, and they were at a loss, and they all looked at Zu Dashou.

"General Zu, otherwise let's set up soldiers and horses, casually frame Wei Bao for a crime, capture the thief and capture the king first, and then arrest Wei Bao first!"

"That's right, kill Wei Bao, it's a hundred!"

"This deflated calf should have been killed a long time ago!"

"As long as you kill Wei Bao, there won't be so much mess and!"

As a result of the discussion of a group of Liaodong and Liaodong families, they became very unified, and they unanimously wanted to kill Wei Bao at all costs!

Zu Dashou sighed and said, "Why don't I want to kill Wei Bao?" You ask Wu Xiang, I was trying to kill Wei Bao a few months ago, don't you remember the last time Wei Bao and Wu Sangui competed in the ring outside Weijiazhuang? That time, I even transferred the Jinzhou Iron Cavalry, wasn't I blocked back by a few of the chief eunuchs of the Bingjun Army? At that time, it was not easy to kill Wei Bao openly. Now that Wei Bao has more people and horses in his hands, and he has become a disciple of Inspector Sun, it will be even more difficult to kill Wei Bao, and if he wants to kill, he can only assassinate! If you kill it openly, if any of you have a way, I will give 100,000 taels of silver to thank you! ”

When the generals of the Liaodong family in Liaoxi heard this, they looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, they all hope that a hero will come out to take on the heavy responsibility of killing Wei Bao, but there is no way for Zu Dashou, who can still have a way?

Among these hereditary military tycoons, there is no way to produce heroes, they are all masters who are scrambling for the first place with benefits, and who is desperately retreating, who can bear such a difficult thing and take on such a big responsibility?

"Assassination, right? He Wei Bao runs around all day long, and he can't find a chance at all? ”

Everyone's discussion turned to the assassination again, and anyway, they all turned red-eyed, thinking that as long as Wei Bao died, all the problems could be solved, and this was the only thing they could think of.

Everyone was in favor of the assassination, and each family was willing to share the silver, at least 10,000 taels of silver.

Two or three hundred large households, together are two or three million taels of silver.

With so much silver, they are unwilling to subsidize the common people to live, but they are willing to use it to kill Wei Bao.

Zu Dashou was moved, but he didn't dare to take such a large sum of silver, because this silver was hot to hold!

The killing of Wei Bao was successful, but I didn't say it, but if the plan to assassinate Wei Bao had not been successful after everyone had gone to Wei Bao's side, wouldn't these people have broken the family that killed Wei Bao with the silver?

"General Zu, you speak, we can all trust you, you take the lead, we are all willing to give money!"

"That's right, General Zu, come up with an idea!"

After everyone decided on the way, they desperately urged Zu Dashou.

Zu Dashou's two eyebrows were completely twisted into a tic-tac-toe shape, "What's the use of you urging me?" Let me tell you the truth, I have sent out a group of people before, and I have not been able to find a chance, that Wei Bao is very cautious, there have always been people around him who are secretly protected, and his whereabouts are uncertain, and he has picked a heavy guard to show up in an important town protected by heavy troops. This time he ran to Liaodong, first to Jinzhou, then to Ningyuan City, and then to Huludao, with the Governor by his side, how to kill? Whoever of you has the ability to do this, I am also willing to pay silver, kill Wei Bao, I am personally willing to pay 200,000 taels of silver! ”

Hearing Zu Dashou say this, everyone was dumbfounded, and all hopes were in vain.

Wu Xiang sighed and said: "This matter is indeed difficult to handle, let's not embarrass General Zu." At present, on the one hand, they are starting to sell Liao people to the Heaven and Earth Society, and on the other hand, they are tightly sealed to prevent the people from running around Ningyuan City and Huludao! As for killing Wei Bao, let's agree, whoever has the ability to get Wei Bao's head within two months will give at least 10,000 taels of silver to each family, and whoever kills Wei Bao will get this silver! The gentleman agreed that when the time comes, no one will be allowed to repay the debt! ”

Wu Xiang synthesized several meanings of everyone.

Everyone discussed for a while, although Wu Xiang's method of making peace with the mud was not of much use, but it was better than the blind method of everyone messing up into a pot of porridge, so they could only agree to Wu Xiang's method.

The generals of the Liaodong family in Liaoxi officially began to sell the Liao people to the Heaven and Earth Society.

At this moment, the speed of sending the people of Liao to southern Liaoning has increased several times!

The idea of the Liaodong family in Liaoxi was discussed by Wei Bao that day, although there were not a few agents sent by the Statistics Bureau of the Heaven and Earth Society who had entered the high-level of important and large families such as the Zu family and the Wu family, but so many people discussed together, and there were many people, it was still easy to obtain information.

Lin Wenbiao told President Wei about the results of the discussion among the generals of the Liaoxi and Liaodong families.

President Wei said indifferently: "I guess they will do the same!" If you want to assassinate, then it depends on the ability of your statistical office. ”

"President, please rest assured, the security matters around the president are stricter than the emperor's travels, not only the capable warriors of the escort team, but also dozens of senior agents of the Statistics Bureau, from food to accommodation and transportation, they have no chance at all." Lin Wenbiao immediately assured: "If the president has a half-point difference, all of us in the Heaven and Earth Society can only go by apologizing for their crimes with death." ”

Wei Bao smiled: "You don't have to say it so tragically, you just need to be careful, and be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years." ”

"That's what the president said! After returning to Shanhaiguan, the security force around the president has doubled, and we need to be extra careful in these two months. Lin Wenbiao said.

"More than these two months, the money earned is used to spend, from now on, the escort force around me will be increased at least three times, and the strength of a battalion will be maintained at any time!" Wei Bao is more afraid of death than anyone else. Don't run to Daming, just a few days ago, someone assassinated first, then it's funny.

"Obey the President's orders!" Lin Wenbiao immediately stood up and gave a standard military salute.

The normal journey from Huludao to Shanhaiguan is two days, but Wei Bao made people travel day and night, and rushed back in a hurry, and there was no rest on the way, so he entered the customs on the morning of the third day.

Escorted by Ma Shilong's personal soldiers, the natural unimpeded travel along the way, the eastern border army of Jiliao is very tight on the soldiers and horses carrying materials, as for them to bring people, this can not be checked, as long as they do not bring a large number of materials, it is fast and smooth, it is autumn, there is no rain, and the official road conditions along the way are OK.

Wei Bao secretly thought, if a railway is built from Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou City, such a small distance will only take two or three hours, even if the speed of the steam engine train cannot rise, four hours at most! In that case, why keep building border cities? The soldiers, horses and supplies in the pass are here in a blink of an eye, and there are bunkers all over the railway, and Jiannu will be greeted with grenades when they come.

If this Jiliao Inspector lets himself do it, it won't take two years, and the Jiannu who fights will not dare to commit it.

It won't take five years to build a slave's nest!

It's a pity that he is only a 14-year-old boy and has no strong background, even if he has a strong background, it is not easy to be a five-grade official before the age of twenty at such a young age.

Don't think about it right now.

"President, do you want to go back to Weijiazhuang directly, or take a rest at Shanhaiguan?" Lin Wenbiao asked: "Right now, the big people in Liaoxi and Liaodong are outside the customs, and the president can move freely." ”

Wei Bao was not in a hurry to go home, and after hearing this, he thought about it and said, "Let's stay in the Maritime Chamber of Commerce Pavilion first!" I also have to visit Wu Ergongzi, and by the way, I have to go to Shanhailou to see Sister Fang! Well, lunch was eaten at Shanhailou! It's hard enough for the guards to escort us, and I can't help but let the brothers have a good meal. Wei Bao smiled and secretly wondered, I don't know if I can see Zhao Jinfeng this time, several beauties have to see each other, and then go back to Weijiazhuang, and then go to Beijing to catch the exam, right? Calculating the time, it's quite abundant.

"Okay, president, I'll arrange it immediately." Lin Wenbiao smiled and promised that if he could return to the gate, he would feel like going home, and the entourage of agents, including Lin Wenbiao, was in a good mood.

Lin Wenbiao said that the president wanted to invite everyone to have a good meal, and everyone cheered together, especially the hundreds of soldiers sent by Ma Shilong, who were even more happy, they had been rewarded twice by Wei Gongzi along the way, and everyone got at least ten taels of silver, and they all sighed that this escort Wei Gongzi was really the biggest beauty difference in the world, and they didn't expect that they had just entered the customs and could eat a good meal, and they were even more overjoyed.

Ma Shilong's personal soldiers thanked Wei Gongzi loudly.

Wei Baole opened the curtain of the carriage and said with a smile: "Brothers, you don't have to be polite, Master Ma and I are our own people, and everyone will be our own people in the future." ”

When everyone heard this, their hearts were even warmer, their soldiers in Jiliao were no different from the border troops in Liaodong, they were all poor military households, they said they were soldiers, but in fact, they were the domestic slaves of the generals, and they heard that a person with such status as Wei Gongzi was a brother, where could they not be grateful? Many people's eyes were red, and they said that wherever they went, they couldn't forget to promote Wei Gongzi's benevolence.

Wei Bao smiled and agreed, gossiping with everyone, he loves to listen to people's praise, especially likes to mingle with the poor people below, you know, if in the previous life, in modern times, he is not as good as these soldiers, these soldiers no matter what, will not starve to death, and can be regarded as a person with a stable job, and he, as no social security, no medical insurance, no pension insurance, three no security personnel, where is qualified to compare with these soldiers?

No matter what happens in this life, the current achievements have made Wei Bao feel like he has fallen into a huge rice jar, a huge honey pot, and his daily life is sweet.

If you don't have to think about the huge problem of feeding millions of people in the next few millions, President Wei's life will be even more beautiful.

"President, it's all arranged, I've already asked people to go to the Maritime Chamber of Commerce and Shanhailou to spread the word, do you want to send someone to invite Second Prince Wu and Miss Wu out for dinner?" Lin Wenbiao is very good at speculating about President Wei's thoughts.

When Wei Bao heard this, he immediately agreed: "This is a good idea!" However, it's not appropriate to send someone to invite, anyway, it's still early at noon, so I'll go to Wu Mansion in person! ”

"However, President, don't eat in the Wu Mansion just in case something happens." Lin Wenbiao did not forget to advise.

Wei Bao smiled slightly: "It's a good thing to be cautious, you don't have to be so cautious, I don't believe that the Wu family will kill me at home." What's more, Wu Xiang and Wu Sanfeng should still be in Huludao and haven't come back. It's okay. ”

"There is also Wu Sangui, and the mother of the Wu family." Lin Wenbiao reminded: "The president will not forget that the mother of the Wu family is the sister of Zu Dashou, right?" ”

Wei Bao smiled: "How could I forget this? Okay, I don't eat at Wu's house, and I don't drink tea when they serve it, are you relieved? ”

"Okay, Childe. It's not that I'm worried about Wu Ergongzi, but people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and the president is still careful. Lin Wenbiao agreed, and said to the convoy: "Reroute, go to Wu Mansion!" ”

Dozens of agents secretly guarded, more than 100 Ma Shilong's personal soldiers lined up to escort them, and the group went to Wu Mansion in a mighty way.

The people of Shanhaiguan didn't see the flag, and they couldn't figure out which official it was, but they heard that it was Wei Gongzi of Weijiazhuang who came, and then everyone suddenly realized.

Wei Bao is now in Liaoxi, Liaodong, and Liaonan, these areas with Liao characters, and they are not very famous, and not many people even know about them, but they are already well-known in Liaodong, Liaonan, and Liaonan.

In fact, Wei Bao's industry has now developed to the entire Beizhili, and even Inner Mongolia and Shandong have developed in the past, but the signboard of Tiandihui is still not loud, and they are just doing some small business.

Wei Bao in the carriage, got a delicate brocade box, easy to pack gifts, when going to other people's homes, always have to prepare some souvenirs, this is a fine tradition of the Chinese, do not understand this, just do not know the number of etiquette.

Wei Bao often prepares a small gift box or something, as for the gift it doesn't matter, Wei Bao usually loves to give cash! Give the silver ticket! In Wei Bao's view, nothing is as attractive as direct discounting.

At least that's the case for him, no matter how you can give gifts, it's difficult to grasp the other party's heart, just give people silver, and let people buy it themselves, isn't it?

Wei Bao's people arrived outside the gate of Wu Mansion, and the escort team plus Ma Shilong's personal soldiers were nearly 200 people, not counting the senior special services of the Statistics Bureau who were secretly guarding the surrounding area.

With such a big formation, the door officials of the Wu Mansion did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to Tongbing's mother and Miss Gongzi at home.

The door official of the Wu Mansion recognized Wei Bao, and he secretly didn't see him for a while, this Wei Gongzi has increased his strength a lot? Seeing that those officers and soldiers seem to be the personal soldiers of Jiliao, everyone has neat armor, so they are not majestic!

Could it be that Sun Chengzong's personal soldiers personally escorted Wei Bao back to the customs, right?

The door official of the Wu Mansion is naturally a well-informed person, and naturally he has already known that Wei Bao recognized Sun Chengzong as a teacher.

Therefore, Ma Shilong's personal soldiers were regarded as Sun Chengzong's personal soldiers.

This is too majestic, not to mention Wei Bao, a young man in the township, even any family in Liaoxi and Liaodong, and he will never have such a big face, so that the Governor can send his own soldiers to escort the trip.

Who is the Overseer? Especially Inspector Sun, who is also the emperor's teacher, is a big man who can sit side by side with the emperor and ride in a carriage.

The official of the Wu Mansion could recognize Wei Bao, and Wei Bao could naturally recognize the official, and he still remembered that a few months ago, when he first boarded the gate of the Wu Mansion, he had to be accompanied by Luo Yangxing of Jinyiwei, and he had to keep his voice down.

Now look at the deferential attitude of the official, which makes Wei Bao's heart really happy, this time is different from the past, I Wei Bao finally trembled, see if you still dare to look at people with low eyes?

Wu Xiang is not in the mansion, the second son of Wu is the master who does not care about things, and the major affairs of the Wu Mansion are naturally controlled by Wu Zu himself.

Wu Xuexia can also help from the side.

Wu Sangui continued to focus on martial arts training, he was a 12-year-old boy, and it was not his turn to run the family's business and the family's big and small things.

"Wei Bao came to the door?" After listening to the report of the doorman and the housekeeper, Wu Zu heard that Wei Bao was personally guarded by the personal soldiers of the Inspector, which made Wu Zu slightly surprised.

Wu Xuexia, who was beside Wu Zu's side, heard that Wei Bao was coming, but her face was full of joy.
