Just when Emperor Zhu Hongsan of Shenwu was eating and masturbating with his son, in Ganzhou, Jiangxi, a hundred miles away, his eldest son Zhu Hai was having a painful and happy birth in the recruit camp.

It has been three months since Zhu Hai arrived here, and these few months have probably been the most fulfilling months for Zhu Hai. Every day at dawn, I get up and run five kilometers, then eat, train in the morning in military posture, physical training in the afternoon, and then brainwashing class in the evening.

Zhu Hai has the excellent genes of Zhu Hongsan and Ma Xiaofang, and originally looked like a character like a beautiful son. After three months of recruit training, he has completely turned into a black charcoal head, but his originally thin body has become strong, and the sufficient animal protein and carbohydrate intake have made Zhu Hai, who was already in adolescence, a man, and now Zhu Hai feels that he has inexhaustible strength.

In the past few months, Zhu Hai has been fully integrated into the daily life of the third class, eating, training, resting, and playing with ten people every day, which makes Zhu Hai, who was originally in the center of power, a rare relaxation.

This afternoon, the company commander informed the whole company that they had finally passed the recruit period, and that tomorrow they would issue muskets to everyone and start firing live ammunition.

This news made the whole company boil, after all, the first regiment and the second regiment trained together with these recruits, and every day people fired live ammunition, can the recruits of the three, four, five, six, seven, and eight not be greedy? Today, when I heard the company commander say that live-fire training would begin tomorrow, I naturally cheered.

The company commander was also very happy, looked at the cheering recruits below, and said: "This afternoon's training has been canceled, and I will give you half a day off to rest and rest!" ”

As soon as the company commander said this, these recruits were even more happy, after all, the barracks were boring, every day was a lot of exercise, and they were tired to death at the end of the day, and now they can take a half-day vacation is not the same as the New Year.

Zhu Hongsan has always been stingy with his soldiers, and the newly enlisted privates also have a monthly salary of five taels of silver, which is much higher than the eight taels of silver per year of the most elite border army in the Ming Dynasty, plus the casualty rate of the new army is far less than that of the border army, so it is still a good choice to give Zhu Hongsan his life.

After the third class returned to their barracks, everyone discussed going to the city to play. After two months of training, Xu Youcai, the rich man, weighed from 200 catties to 160 catties, and his whole body was full of strength.

Xu Youcai said loudly: "Finally, the fuck has a half-day vacation, everyone will go with me in a while, let's go into the city and I will take you to visit the Spring Courtyard to see and see!" Xu Youcai's family sent a hundred taels of silver pocket money this month, although Xu Youcai's father did not agree with his son to be a soldier, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he had to ask someone to send silver to avoid his precious son from suffering.

Xiucai Wu Yuhou Li couldn't look down on Xu Youcai's rich man, so he arched his hand and said: "You guys go, Xiaosheng wants to warm the book!" After speaking, he lay on the bed and ignored Xu Youcai.

Seeing that Wu Yuhou didn't give face, Xu Youcai muttered in a low voice: "What to pretend, the poor will return the bookbag when they ask for food!" But he didn't dare to say it out loud, after all, Wu Yuhou's talent and fame were much stronger than him.

Zhu Hai's poor relative Ning Fan Zhu Zongshen didn't care, his family was demoted to a concubine for three generations, and his generation was basically the same as a poor person.

"Okay, tonight, you, Rich Xu, will have a treat!"

Xu Youcai was very happy to see that someone echoed him, turned his head to Zhu Hai and asked, "Ma boy, how many of you are?" ”

Zhu Hai also wanted to go and see, when he was a child, his mother Ma Xiaofang was very strict, probably because Zhu Hongsan liked to visit the kiln before, so Ma Xiaofang taught his son that the brothel is the most evil place in the world, and he must stay away. But in the past, Zhu Hai was young and easy to fool, but now that Zhu Hai is grown up and is still in adolescence, it is inevitable that he will be interested in that kind of thing.

Ma Da was startled when he heard that Zhu Hai was going to follow, but he knew that this prince was not only the nephew of the second master, but also his fast son-in-law, in case the second master knew that his son-in-law was going to the brothel to live happily, then his brothers would die.

Martha hurriedly whispered to Zhu Hai: "Young Master, it's better not to go to that kind of pickled place!" ”

Zhu Hai shook his head and said to Xu Youcai: "Fat Xu, okay, the master will go with you!" ”

Xu Youcai was happy to hear that Zhu Hai was going to go together, although he was honest, he was not stupid. The biggest family in Guangdong now is the Huguang Ma family, this Ma boy's surname is not to mention Ma, and he is accompanied by four family members, plus he is still from Huguang, and he must be related to Ma Jiyuan and Ma Mingyuan. It is estimated that joining the army is also gilded in the army, relying on seniority, and will be transferred away in a few months, if you don't seize this opportunity to make good friends, I'm afraid you won't have a chance in the future.

Xu Youcai finally said to the squad leader to the third child: "Squad leader, you two are not going!" ”

Xiang Laosan shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm too old to toss, you guys go!" ”

"Xiang boy, what about you?"

Xiang Rong glanced at Zhu Hai, blushed, lowered his head and said, "I'm so tired, I'm with my father in the barracks!" Go ahead! ”

Xu Youcai saw that the squad leader and the two men were not going, and he didn't say anything, and Zhu Hai and Ma Da took leave from the officers on duty and went to play in Ganzhou City together. Zhu Hongsan's military orders in the new army were harsh, stipulating that he should return to the camp before sunset on vacation, otherwise he would be whipped three times.

Now 60,000 of Jin Shenghuan's 100,000 captured soldiers were asked back by Jin Shenghuan in two batches, and the remaining 50,000 were organized into a baggage team by Zhang Jiayu, responsible for transporting weapons, grain and grass to the Fourth Division.

Ganzhou City as the main road of Jiangxi and Guangdong, although the first half of the year by Jin Shenghuan's military disaster, but soon regained its vitality, now because of the merchants of Guangdong into Ganzhou, the prosperity is better than before.

Xu Youcai took a few comrades-in-arms to the city gate of Ganzhou, there is a team of tax collectors from Ganzhou Mansion in this place to collect the city gate tax, although Ganzhou is now returned to Guangdong, but because the time is still short, all the officials still change the soup and do not change the medicine, the same as the time before the Ming Dynasty.

When the tax collector at the gate saw that these people were wearing the gray and white training uniforms of the New Army, they quickly got out of the way and greeted them with smiling faces. There is no way to do it, the new army can't afford to provoke this uncle, half a month ago, a gatekeeper in Xicheng did not let the new army on vacation enter the city, and was beaten by this gang of Qiu Ba, I heard that the legs were discounted, and the Ganzhou prefect didn't even have a fart, and now he dared to stop this gang of uncles when he saw that he wanted to enter the city.

The Spring Visiting Courtyard was originally a large courtyard in the city of Ganzhou, and many merchants from the south and north came here to find their sister and relieve the fatigue of the journey. In addition, the Spring Visiting House still has a relatively backstage in Ganzhou City, so the business is quite stable.

But in the hard backstage, it is impossible to encounter troubled times, and the boss of the Spring Courtyard who visited the Spring Courtyard after Jin Shenghuan broke the city spent a lot of money to bribe Jin Shenghuan, originally wanting to protect his own industry. But the bribes are not as good as your entire net worth, Jin Shenghuan is like this, he took people to burn down the Spring Visiting Courtyard, and the sisters inside were good-looking and left, and the unsightly ones were pretended to be military prostitutes, and the boss was also forced by Jin Shenghuan to die and hang himself.

Next, the new army from Guangdong defeated Jin Shenghuan, and this place became Guangdong's territory. The Spring Visiting Courtyard is located in the south of the city, the geographical location is very good, of course, it is also favored by the Huguang nouveau riche who has just entered the city, and the big boss of Guangdong has changed the owner of this place with a letter.

After two months of renovation, a new one was built on the site of the original temple, which is better than the original. Because of the Huguang faction boss in the background, and the business prosperity in Ganzhou is better than before, the business is booming, and you can't get in without booking in advance.

Xu Youcai took seven people to the gate of the Spring Visiting Courtyard, and was just about to enter, but was stopped by the big teapot at the door.

"Several, this is the Spring Visiting Courtyard, if you want to find Sister Yao, please go to Rouge Lane, the girls there are cheap and clean!" When the big teapot saw that these people were wearing the gray and white training uniforms of the New Army, he knew that these were the recruits of the Guangdong New Army outside the city. These guys are rich, and they don't know how thick the sky is, and they want to find a girl when they have some money, thinking that the Spring Courtyard is the same as those half-hidden prostitutes. However, the big shopkeeper also knew that these new troops were not easy to mess with, although the backstage of the Spring Visiting House was not afraid of them, but after all, more things were better than less, and the new soldiers who came were politely sent to other brothels.

Xu Youcai made a big red face, just now he blew the arrangement of the most upscale courtyard in Ganzhou City, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face at the door.

"You guy, do you think your uncle has no money?" After speaking, he took out ten taels of silver and stuffed it into the big teapot, "Find a spacious room for a few of us, and find a few good-looking sisters!" ”

Xu Youcai thought that ten taels of silver was enough, you must know that even in Guangdong, where prices are soaring, ten taels of silver is enough for a family of three to live for more than a month. Unexpectedly, the big teapot looked at the silver in his hand, smiled and said: "This friend, for the sake of this silver, my brother will tell you the truth, the people who come to the Spring Courtyard are either rich or expensive, and they are not the place where you big-headed soldiers come at all, listen to the advice of my brother, or go somewhere else!" ”

Ma Da is away all the year round and has rich social experience, so he knows the allusion of taking a step back and calming down, so he stepped forward and grabbed Xu Youcai and said: "Forget it, let's come out to be happy today, and then find a yard!" ”

Xu Fatzi looked stupid, but he was very shrewd in his heart, and he nodded when he heard Martha say this, and led a few brothers to prepare to leave.

But at this time, the big teapot was damned, and when he saw that these new army farts were not there, he was ready to leave, and he laughed with a few followers in the back: "These cousins don't pee to take care of themselves, and they want to come to our Spring Courtyard!" ”

Just now, the big teapot said that they were big-headed soldiers, and they could listen to it, but now they are scolded. Mr. Zhu is a native of Jiangxi, although the Nanchang dialect is different from the Ganzhou dialect, but it can still be heard clearly in general. Mr. Zhu is now down, but after all, he is the descendant of Zhu Yuanzhang, and now that big teapot scolds him as a cousin, it is not an indirect scolding of Zhu Yuanzhang? Where can Mr. Zhu bear it.

Mr. Zhu turned around and glared angrily and asked, "Who are you scolding?" ”
