Regarding the case of Bai Moyu's disappearance, Wang Gang's father and son secretly pursued it for nearly a month, without any clues, and even Chang'an Bai Xiuran did not let go, but found nothing. Although the father and son were angry in their hearts, there was nothing they could do, and the matter gradually became cold.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it has entered the dog weather, and the weather in Shuzhong is unbearably hot. It has been a long time since he left Jin Yunshan, and Zheng Liuyi couldn't rest assured, so he said goodbye to Wushuang, carried his father on his back, sneaked all the way, and came to Jin Yunshan.

At the bottom of the mountain, from a distance, the fields are green, although the heat is unbearable, there are still farmers working in the fields.

Zheng Liuyi clearly remembered that the last time he came to conquer Jin Yunshan, the fields below the mountain were barren and inaccessible. Bandits infested, either robbing money or robbing color, imagine who would dare to come here to farm?

Seeing this scene, Zheng Liuyi felt very relieved, it seemed that Zhanpeng, Ruan Xu and others had managed the villa well, so the mood for climbing the mountain was even more eager.

As soon as he got to the Lion Peak, he saw Wang Cheng and Zhao Wu leading Zhuang Ding to practice the formation on the martial arts field, and Zhan Peng was watching and pointing on the sidelines.

Seeing Zheng Liuyi coming, everyone immediately stopped their movements, and Zhanpeng, Wang Cheng, and Zhao Wu trotted all the way to Zheng Liuyi. Zhan Peng immediately stood up straight, clenched his fists and saluted: "Report!" Lion Peak Zhuang Ding is practicing, please review the owner! ”

Zheng Liuyi returned the salute and said loudly: "All the Zhuang Ding are disbanded and each rests." Zhan Peng, Wang Cheng, Zhao Wu, follow the owner of the village into the chamber! ”

In the conference hall, Zhanpeng reported in detail the situation of the mountain villa for more than a month, the income from drying salt is very high, the seedlings in the field are flourishing, and the practice of each peak village is not relaxed for a moment, and the whole mountain villa is thriving. In contrast, the incense burner peak where Lao Qi was located was a little lax.

"The owner of the Seven Villages is newly married Yan'er, which is also understandable." Zheng Liuyi smiled, and then said: "The weather is very hot now, you must not practice excessively, and you must arrange it reasonably, so as not to complain." Also, has everyone's monthly money been paid? ”

"No, the owner of Ruan Zhuang said, if you are not present, no one will want to move the silver of the villa!" Zhan Peng replied truthfully.

This Ruan Xu is quite reliable, but he is a little dead-eyed, how can the monthly money promised by the owner be overdue? Isn't this using everyone as a coolie? Zheng Liuyi immediately said: "Zhanpeng, call Shangjiang Tong, follow me to Lotus Peak!" ”

When I arrived at Lotus Peak, I saw that Ruan Xu had already come down the mountain to greet him, and he saluted Zheng Liuyi from afar: "Lord... Host... Owner, you are here, everyone is looking forward to you! ”

Ruan Xu originally wanted to call the lord, but when he saw Zhan Peng and Jiang Tong on his side, he forcibly changed it to the owner.

Entering the living room, Zheng Liuyi: "Master Ruan, how has the income of the villa been in the past month or so?" ”

Ruan Xu bowed and replied, "The income is acceptable." According to the statistics and accounting of the subordinates yesterday, since the establishment of the villa, more than 2,000 taels of tolls have been collected, more than 9,000 taels of private salt have been earned, and the rest of the bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets and other bamboo weaving have received more than 1,000 taels. After deducting various expenditures, the balance is less than 10,000 taels. ”

After listening to the report, Zheng Liuyi was also secretly surprised, knowing that private salt made money, but he didn't expect it to be so profitable, Jin Yunshan didn't have this income in the past, and if he didn't go out to rob, he really couldn't survive.

"Why is Zhuang Ding's monthly money delayed?"

Ruan Xu snorted: "The owner is not here, and his subordinates dare not make decisions without permission." Moreover, seeing that half a year has passed this year, according to the previous practice of the cottage, at this time to give gifts to the governor of Jiangzhou, I am afraid that if I don't send it again, in a few days the captain Zhang Meng will come to the door to ask for it, I don't know whether the owner will give it or not. ”

"Of course not! These are all the hard-earned money of our Zhuang Ding. Zheng Liuyi replied categorically, "In the future, you don't have to wait for me to issue monthly money, you can just have the three of you sign for the record, and other payments for money in the villa can also refer to this law." ”

A look of surprise flashed on Ruan Xu's face, and he said: "That captain is good at using soldiers, and his Honghao is brave and good at fighting, but we have suffered a lot of losses under him." ”

Zheng Liuyi: "Our villa is not the same as before, and now it is basically a legitimate business, how can we have spare money to honor them?" Master Ruan, you will calculate everyone's points today and inform everyone that tomorrow in Lion Peak, I will hold a meeting of all Zhuang Ding! ”

Ruan Xu immediately summarized the points of each peak Zhuang Ding, took out the abacus, and crackled and calculated. Zheng Liu was very surprised when he saw it, there is an abacus in this era? The key plan is still the original bandit leader, I really underestimate him.

After a while, Ruan Xu said: "Owner, please see, according to the points for each person to participate in labor and training, if one point is one penny of silver, the highest one can get three taels of silver, and the lowest one is more than one tael." This is all in time to catch up with the errand in the government, isn't it a little higher? ”

"Not much, just follow this." Zheng Liuyi immediately made a decision.

The next day, the martial arts arena under Lion Peak was crowded, and everyone was full of smiles. Occupying the mountain as king on the mountain and taking the silver is something that has not been done in eternity. Everyone is also very much looking forward to how much silver they can get, and everyone is talking about it, making their own guesses in private.

Zheng Liuyi, Tong Zigong and his wife, Ruan Xu, Zhan Peng and Jiang Tong Yuguan walked up to the stage, and the noisy crowd below immediately quieted down. After a few people stood still, Zheng Liuyi looked at the black heads of the people in the audience, nodded slightly and smiled at everyone.

The audience immediately erupted in thunderous applause. Zheng Liuyi raised his hand to make a downward gesture, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said: "For more than a month, my Liuyi Villa's various undertakings have been thriving, and everyone has worked hard!" ”

Everyone shouted in unison: "Serve the owner, don't give up!" ”

"The owner of the village said that he would give everyone a monthly money every month, but there was a delay some time ago, and he just arrived at the villa yesterday, please understand!"

"Everyone's monthly salary is determined according to the amount of work and drill performance, and if I call out my name next, please come to the stage to receive the monthly money from the owner of Ruan Zhuang."

"Luo Pei, one two or eight dollars! Eight coins of silver are converted into eighty five-baht coins, and so on for those who follow. ”

The audience happily came to the stage and counted the money in front of Ruan Xu.

"Song Jun, two, two, three money!"

"Feng Jian, one two or nine dollars!"

……

After a while, the more than 600 people present were distributed, and all the faces of everyone were full of smiles, and the entire martial arts arena was full of laughter. You know, the money is what they get in addition to eating, drinking, and closing.

"Those who are on duty are collected by the members of the group. Everyone's monthly money is high and low, the average is about two taels per person, the squad leader is worried about tiredness, and the monthly money is on the basis of everyone, rising by 50%, do you have any opinions? ”

"No comments!" Everyone spoke in unison.

"Zhou Xin, Ma Lin, Wang Cheng, Zhao Wu, Xue Han, and Xu Xin are six company commanders, each with a monthly salary of twenty taels! Zhan Peng and Jiang Tong are two battalion commanders, each with a monthly salary of thirty taels! ”

The eight of them bowed down together: "Thank you, the owner!" ”

Zheng Liuyi returned the salute, and then turned his face to the audience: "The monthly money is not fixed, it depends on the monthly income of the villa, the income of the villa is high, and everyone's monthly income will naturally increase." ”

"If you have a wife or sibling, you can also pick up the mountain, as long as you earn points and abide by the rules of the mountain villa, you can give them the same monthly money! However, the owner of the farm should be ugly in front of him. If someone is greedy for the property of Moshan Villa, once discovered, they will be expelled from the villa immediately and will never be accepted! ”

Can you still bring your family here? As soon as these words came out, they caused a great shock among the people, and their faces all showed excited looks.

Just when everyone was talking, two Zhuang Ding under the mountain rushed up the mountain.

"Report! Jiangzhou Governor Zhang Meng brought people here! ”
