Looking at the thousands of households in the distance, looking at the county zun who was a little annoyed and angry, and then looking at the fortress outside the city, Zhang Yuan had no choice but to go down to the city, and he was really powerless.

returned to the barracks, regardless of fatigue, inspected the camp sentry one by one, greeted those sentries with cold and warmth, won the endless love of those villagers, and then dragged his tired body back to his camp.

There are still some bloody and strong children in the camp tent, all chattering together about what the thousand households said today, and when they saw Zhang Yuan coming in, they all stood up and saluted, no longer commensurate with their official positions, but all called their brothers.

Although Zhang Yuan enjoys the official title very much, he prefers everyone to call him brother in front of his brothers, which makes everyone feel cordial, it is easier to win people's hearts, and he also feels supported, after all, living in a group of officials, and living in a group of brothers, he feels more down-to-earth.

Seeing that a group of brothers hadn't left yet, Zhang Yuan waved his hand weakly and said: "Brothers, it's late at night, there is a major military situation, please say, we will make a decision immediately, if not, we will go back to rest immediately, tomorrow we have a bad battle to fight, or raise the spirit to deal with the thieves in the Black Tiger Village" As he spoke, he sat down directly on the chair reserved for Zhou Ji at the top, waiting for the brothers' report.

A close disciple of his own stood up and said loudly: "Brother, I am not just for today's thousand households. Seeing that the other brothers did not agree, he said loudly to himself: "What is he?" What is the truth of eating ours and wearing ours, but not wanting to do things for us? The official army was originally to protect the territory and the people, where he shirked like this? I think tomorrow my brother will send someone to share it with him, either return the money, or fight to the death with us, where did you come from such a verbose building? ”

When Zhang Yuan heard this, he waved his hand tiredly, and said weakly: "Brother, don't worry, everything has its own difficulties, and the officials and soldiers have accumulated shortcomings for a long time, where can it be solved by being willful?" In fact, that Qianhu is also a man who dares to take responsibility, and in Daming, there are not many men like this. There was a long sigh of weakness, and it took a long time before he said weakly: "Besides, after all, we are village warriors, and the official family has given a name, and I also entrusted my brother and my means to give you brothers a hundred small banners to send the general official, in fact, in the eyes of some real military generals, we are still inferior." "Saying this, but telling the truth, these townsmen are strong again, but in the eyes of those old soldiers, the spirit is spirit, but there is a lack of some blood, as a Shangguan to inspect the parade is still okay, if it is against the thieves, it is a group of straw men and paper horses, and they can't get on the stage at all, Zhang Yuan is conceited, he knows this, he really wants to turn these villagers into warriors who dare to fight, money and food are on the one hand, and the main thing is to let them see blood, even if only half of them are killed in this battle, That is a real strong army, as long as you fill in some new Ding in the future, these words are not something that this businessman can understand, mainly what Qian Zhongjun taught him on the street corner.

However, in this battle, I am really reluctant to take these lives, after all, this is all piled up with my own silver, which is all in accordance with my original discussion with my father-in-law and others, as the capital of self-respect for raising thieves in the future.

Preserving strength is the first, there is no second.

But these are all in their own stomachs, just a few of the closest people know it, and there is no need to say anything else, especially the brother in front of him, who only fights and kills all day long, it's okay to be a caretaker, do others, it's still cost-effective to raise a dog.

Looking at the brother who was still indignant, Zhang Yuan could only teach with respect, after all, there is a difference between being an official and being a dog, although the difference is not very big.

"So we don't do things too arrogantly, offend the top and bottom plainly, in fact, everyone not only has to kill the enemy in front of the battle, but also to be left and right in the officialdom, after all, we are not orthodox, and we are not valued and looked down upon by these generations of eunuchs, so don't raise your tail too high, officialdom is actually more dangerous than the battlefield, brother, I have seen it through before I chattered with you and so on, they are all their own brothers, unity is the right way, and I also have no heirs, What supports me to move forward with all my heart is the future of your children and the prosperity of your family, as well as the hatred of killing my father and killing my son. So, it makes sense to give me less trouble and do more things for me. "Cover your face and feel sad in your heart, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great, don't you want to be too persistent? But thinking of the old wife's affection, he hurriedly drove away this thought.

After thinking for a while, he said: "There is something to do before dawn tomorrow, Twelfth brother, we still have a business in Ganquan." "To be honest, Zhang Yuan's industry is so big that he can't even remember where he has any asset trading shops, so he can only rely on the management of the shopkeeper below, and he can always take it himself.

The young man who was called the twelfth brother is now mainly in charge of all Zhang Yuan's business, money and grain, and when he saw his brother asking, he stood up and said carefully: "Yes, brother, we have a pawnshop, a grain store, and a restaurant in this Ganquan, I don't know what my brother commands?" ”

"That's good, I'll write you a note of two thousand taels of silver right away, use my small seal, you wait until dawn to find the thousand households and hand it over to him, we still want the thousand households to help." (I support myself, please go to genuine 17k, okay?)

At this time, there is no such thing as a silver ticket money village, that thing is still Shanxi businessmen in the middle of the Qing Dynasty when they drummed out, now everyone walks around, all are real money and silver, extremely inconvenient, only such a big businessman has a business shop in various places, only when using money with a very high anti-counterfeiting private secret language and a small seal, in the local extract their own shop in the silver.

"Brother, no, that Qianhu made it clear that he didn't want to help us take revenge, so why did he give him those money? gave him a meat bun and beat the dog, and there was no return. One of the sons immediately stood up against it.

Zhang Yuan shook his hand and said, "You don't know anything, these thousand households are still a little bloody, besides, we are a guest army after all, and you won't know the truth that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake." What's more, those thousand households are half a level higher than me, and I can't command him. Li Yuanhao didn't come in person, and the thousand households that will fight tomorrow can be completely absent from the deputy chief soldier, and there is no warrant to shirk and not send troops, so we don't have the right to mobilize Ganquan's offensive and defensive equipment, so do we rely on us to pull down the fortress in front of the thieves? With him some money, grain and rice, in exchange for his help, even if it is the help of siege equipment, it is worth it, besides, along the way, we have also got tens of thousands of taels of landlords from all over the world, and it is not bad. When explaining to these children, Zhang Yuan remembered the seventeenth brother, if the seventeenth brother who was ordinary on the outside and smart on the inside, then could he not bother with these reckless children? But the seventeenth brother was injured and went back to Yan'an to recuperate, so let's leave some fire for Zhang Zhao Chen's family.

Those disciples also wanted to say, Zhang Yuan waved his hand tiredly and said: "Go back to sleep, tomorrow you will fight to the death with the soldiers of the thief, it is only right to raise your spirit, disperse." ”

When everyone saw what their brother said, they didn't dare to say more, so they all said goodnight to their brother and left.

Zhang Yuan covered his forehead on the chair and pondered, this officialdom is even more difficult than the shopping mall, the shopping mall is just a matter of fighting for every minute, but the ultimate goal is to make the transaction done, even if it can't do business, it's a big deal that everyone laughs and doesn't talk about things, and the wine and dance take care of it, there is such an officialdom, if you don't advance against the current, you will retreat, in fact, there is no way to retreat, as long as you retreat, it is a ruined place and no place to be buried. And there are few of his brothers who can be of great use, all of them are fledglings, and they will only shoot a gun, how do they know that this power plot has changed? Now it seems that only the seventeenth brother is a talent that can be created, but unfortunately, there are fewer such brothers.

Just thinking about it, I felt that there was a person still in the room, and when I opened my eyes, it was Li Yuanhao's praise painting that was looking at him with a smile, Zhang Yuanyi hurriedly stood up and bowed his hand and said: "Mr. Jian Slow shouldn't be, it's all Yuan who fell into contemplation for a while, and he wants to take care of it." ”

The praise painting laughed and said: "Be polite, Lord Zhang is worried about the king's affairs day and night, and the officials admire and admire." Zhang Yuan just smiled, in fact, he felt that there must be something strange in it from this praise painting, but he didn't want to say it, he just saluted him, and now it seems that he must have something to say in the middle of the night. So he said respectfully: "Mr. has something to say, there are no outsiders here, please teach me." ”

Nazanhua said with a smile: "Originally, I was above the city, and I really wanted to teach you, but when I saw Lord Zhang's answer, I was relieved, thinking about Qian Zan's arrival and entrustment, it was in vain that he tried to do so." ”

"Brother, I still have something inconsiderate, and I still need to be mentioned by Mr. at any time." As soon as Zhang Yuan heard him mention Qian Zhongjun, he was extremely polite and respectful.

"It's very rare for adults to basically do things bit by bit now, and since I have been entrusted by Brother Qian, I have to do my best."

"Please sir." Seeing Zhang Yuan's respectful attitude, he was very satisfied, and his vanity was greatly satisfied, of course, he could be mixed with the governor to be a praise painting, which one is not a human spirit, and he didn't hold it big at the moment, and said with a smile: "Since Lord Zhang is willing to give money, then why is there still one person who doesn't give some?" If you give him some money, you might get a lot in return. ”

"What Mr. said is-" Zhang Yuan suddenly realized when he thought about it, and patted his head again and again: "Look at my head, but it's useless, I can't remind Mr. that I almost missed a big thing." ”

Nazanhua looked at Zhang Yuan with a teachable look, and said in his heart, worthy of being a businessman, he is really exquisite, and everything is clear.
