Chapter 63 Selection
In the past few months, Fan Dahei and Lin Haizheng have assisted Han Qian in teaching the children of the family soldiers, and they have not only witnessed Han Qian's all-encompassing teaching of the children of the family soldiers, but they have also been forced to learn and absorb them.
According to the theory of inverting personal temperament to teach and assign tasks, Han Qian can be said to have directly practiced it in Fan Dahei, Lin Haizheng and others.
Fan Dahei has a clumsy temperament and is brave in martial arts, but whether it is the initial errands and messengers, the purchase of materials, the arrangement of transportation, etc., or even the recent dispatch and leadership of the children of the soldiers out of Gyeonggi, to the more distant counties to experience, collect and consider the local customs and price information, he has run much more than Lin Haizheng.
In the past few months, Fan Dahei has not been reprimanded and punished by Han Qian, and sometimes he was even forced to recite the military book silently; And Lin Haizheng, who was more shrewd and capable than the other family soldiers at the beginning, was by Han Qian's side, mainly arranging the most boring guards and executing the discipline and punishment of the children of the family soldiers, but the most direct effect was that both of them had more calmness and composure than they had before.
So they saw that Han Qian saw this roster, and the people recorded in it were all-encompassing, and it was not particularly strange.
This list itself was compiled by Zhao Ting'er, and at first she didn't understand what Han Qian had to do when she registered Daogu, nun, hexagram, Yapo, matchmaker, teacher, pious, medicine, and stable women who couldn't get on the table.
At this time, Han Qian said that he wanted to let her stand alone, and Zhao Ting'er suddenly figured it out, and if she used these "three aunts and six wives" in the roster well, she could still play a role.
The Third Prince and the Marquis of Xinchang's Mansion gave Han Qian a quota of 200 people, and Han Qian could only choose people according to this number.
Within three days, Han Qian selected 17 young and middle-aged women who had been engaged in the "three aunts and six wives" and other industries.
Han Qian arranged for Zhao Ting'er to go to the city to look for it, to see if he could put down a rouge shop to run it first, and the first step was to arrange these women to be trained in the rouge shop, and then find an opportunity to disperse and place them.
At that time, the restrictions on women in the world were still very great, and there were already women engaged in industries such as "three aunts and six women" in Jinling City and Gyeonggi County.
The women who can engage in the "three aunts and six wives" and other industries can be said to be the most primitive working women, almost all of them can speak well, observe words and feelings, and adapt to the complex society, in fact, it is difficult to find fault, even if they are arranged in the rouge shop, so that they can contact with the ladies of various provinces, they are absolutely competent.
A total of 37 craftsmen were selected to watch the fortune of the hexagram, the traveling doctor, the juggler, the porter, and the craftsmen who walked the streets and alleys to repair pots and stoves. These people can be directly scattered and planted in the streets and alleys of Jinling City, or they can even directly disguise themselves as beggars and keep an eye on all corners of Jinling City and Gyeonggi counties.
Those who had worked as apprentices in the shop, who could settle accounts and keep accounts, and who had been helpers and merchants in the past, selected nineteen people to be placed in Feng Yi's newly opened warehouse, and gradually established contact with the stewards who came to buy lime powder from the mansions.
This is only the first step that Han Qian wants to do in this regard, if there is an opportunity in the future, there is plenty of time to set up warehouses in various states and counties, sell tea, iron, wood, grain, spices, copper lacquer, tung oil and other materials, as well as sell all kinds of products from the cottage workshop through the warehouse, is the main way for Han Qian to think that the secret Cao Zuosi can raise a large amount of money and grain in the future.
Otherwise, with only the allocation of three or four million yuan a year from the cantonment military government, it would be difficult for more than 200 people to eat a few more meals of meat, let alone support their families.
The above three types of people, a total of seventy-three people, Han Qian planned to set up a spy room under the secret Cao Zuosi, headed by Fan Dahei, Zhao Ting'er, Guo Nu'er and other fourteen soldiers and children to break up, to do things lurking, scouting.
Goldsmiths, silversmiths, coppersmiths, blacksmiths, tinsmiths, carpenters, bricklayers, stonemasons, and other eight craftsmen, a total of 69 people, were merged into the workshop of the villa, and Han Qian also planned to set up a special workshop in the secret Cao Zuo Division.
In addition, Han Qian also used the name of expanding the employment of the cottage craftsman this time, looking for Shen Yang and others to dredge up the relationship and hire people from the cantonment barracks.
In addition to serving as a cover for the face of the secret Cao Zuosi, in Han Qian's plan, it will also become the core source of money and food for the secret Cao Zuo Si together with the warehouse.
On the one hand, the need for more skilled craftsmen on the craftsman's side is one thing, and when the early rush has passed, Han Qian also wants to open warehouses and gold and silver shops in Jinling City and Gyeonggi counties, and even the nest of his relatives Xu and Xinwang, Chuzhou, Shouzhou, Guangling and other places, as a foothold for intelligence collection, these craftsmen can come in handy.
At present, the spy room is only responsible for the collection of basic information, and if possible, it is necessary to maintain a certain degree of contact with the target from two lines, but more complicated things such as coercion and inducement, infiltration and bribery cannot be done for the time being.
The members of the spy room do not have the corresponding ability, and they can only startle the snake by surprise, and they will not even let them know their true identity and mission in the early stage.
Even if it is extremely common to do sleeper and intelligence reconnaissance in ordinary times, qualified spies or spies need special training to be competent.
After collecting basic information, it is necessary to collect and analyze, Han Qian plans to set up a military machine room in the secretary Cao Zuosi, in addition to Guo Nuer, the son of the soldier, and others, Han Qian also selects six cultural people who know how to read and write, and know how to plan and calculate; Including the control of personnel, the payment of monthly silver, and the payment of money and food, the military engine room is also responsible for the time being.
Fan Dahei is in charge of the affairs of the spy room and the craftsman's room, but Zhao Ting'er assists him in the affairs of the three aunts and six wives, the contact with the ladies of the various mansions, and the military machine room.
In addition to these, even if the secret Cao Zuosi did not do violent things such as assassination, it was impossible for Han Qian not to directly control an elite force in his hands.
Among the more than 30,000 people who were infected with the epidemic and starved, they belonged to other forces before, but were scattered and returned to their hometowns in the process of Emperor Tianyou's conquest of Jianghuai Prefectures, and then fled to Jinling for food because of war or famine, the number is actually quite large, and the total number is almost nearly 2,000 people.
Eliminate those who are seriously ill, those who were coerced by other forces to enlist in the army and flee in confusion, those who are infirm, those who are infirm, and those who have cowardly personalities in the battle array, there are 227 people who were finally entered into the roster by Han Qian.
Of course, in the past four or five months, a considerable number of these people have been excavated by the people sent by the Xinchang Marquis Mansion to the cantonment military government to serve as low-level military positions such as team leader and tun chief, but in the end, there are still fifty-eight people who were recruited by Han Qian.
Han Qian incorporated these fifty-eight people, six family soldiers, and eleven family soldiers into the military room of the secret Cao Zuosi, and was led by Lin Haizheng and Zhao Wuji.

Han Qian was in the villa for three days, and it was only enough to select 200 people, take care of the spy room, military engine room, craftsman's room, and military room for preliminary distribution, and then compile the roster, and then hurried to the courtyard of Yao Xishui in the late Red Mansion the day before the wedding of the young daughter of the third prince Yang Yuanpu and Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, to meet with Li Zhihe and them, and handed over a copy of the roster to Li Zhihe.
This is also Han Qian's condition for agreeing to Li Zhihe, and the establishment of a spy room, a military machine room, a craftsman's room, and a military room under the secretary Cao Zuosi, etc., also has the truth.
With the strength of the late Red Mansion hidden under the water, it is really easy to find out the bottom of his side in detail. And Han Qian also knows the temperament of Chai Jian and Yao Xishui, they themselves are guarding against themselves, how can they not secretly touch the bottom of his side?
Han Qian called Fan Dahei, Lin Haizheng, Zhao Ting'er, and Zhao Wuji over, met with Li Zhihe, Chai Jian, Li Chong, Yao Xishui, and Su Hongyu, and said: "There are four rooms under the Secretary Cao Zuosi, and I will temporarily use the four of them to do things, and I will ask you to take care of many things in the future - but if there are any suitable candidates around Yu Hou and Miss Yao, I hope to recommend them." ”
The secret Cao Zuosi is about to start, if the affairs of the late Red Mansion are not leaked at all, they will be hidden, Fan Dahei, Lin Haizheng, Zhao Ting'er, Zhao Wuji What do they want to do, it is not equivalent to messing around at the bottom of the river with their eyes closed?
Therefore, one of the conditions that Han Qian and Li Zhihe put forward was that he was a trustworthy person, and there should be no need to avoid his meeting with Li Zhihe, Chai Jian, Yao Xishui, Su Hongyu, and Li Chong.
Of course, for Lin Haizheng, they only claimed that the Late Red Mansion was a stronghold secretly operated by the Xinchang Marquis Mansion, and it would be used as a hidden base for the secret Cao Yousi in the future.
In fact, Han Qian guessed that the Marquis Mansion of Xinchang and the Late Red Mansion were one with each other, so saying this would not mislead Lin Haizheng and Fan Dahei about anything.
"We recommend the candidate, you really know how to use it?" Yao Xishui glanced at the extremely beautiful maid beside Han Qian, she didn't believe that Han Qian, with the support of the third prince Yang Yuanpu, had the power to take charge of the secret Cao Zuosi, and would let them send someone to infiltrate it.
"I want to open a rouge shop in the city, so as to get in touch with the noble relatives and daughters in the city, but this maid in my family is naturally beautiful, she doesn't rub powder and rouge, and her face is full of water, so she naturally doesn't understand rouge and lead powder. Chun Niang of the Late Red Mansion seems to be disliked by General Kong recently, I think that Chun Niang has not entered the Confucian family, if you can help me take care of the rouge shop, it should be much easier. Han Qian spread his hands and smiled, as if he couldn't hear Yao Xishui's irony, and directly stretched out his hand to ask them for someone to show his openness.
Yao Xishui was stunned, and looked at Su Hongyu with some doubts.
Yao Xishui and Su Hongyu didn't know what Han Qian had experienced, so how could they guess what he was thinking?
Han Qian, whether it is his personal temperament or planning for the future, he does not want to be completely controlled by the Late Red Mansion, but he has a certain initiative, and his father is about to go out of office, the crisis he is facing is not so urgent, and he still wants to try it, is it possible to really change his life for the third prince Yang Yuanpu and win the throne.
Even if he guessed that the Late Red Mansion might hide a deeper goal, as long as he wanted to try this possibility, he would inevitably have to fight with the tiger.
Feng Yi and Kong Xirong were coerced by Li Chong because of Chunniang's affairs, but it does not mean that Feng Yi and Kong Xirong will really sit and die.
Of course, Feng Yi and Kong Xirong didn't dare to poke out the matter with Chunniang directly, but Kong Xirong's father, Kong Zhou, was estranged from Chunniang, and most likely these two people had done something behind their backs.
Han Qian still hopes that Zhao Ting'er can stay by his side more and help deal with tedious affairs, the rouge shop is a key node for him to go out, at this time, only the ruthless characters carefully cultivated by the Late Red Mansion can be calm, which also shows that he is frank and honest with the Late Red Mansion and the Xinchang Marquis Mansion!
