At first, these big-headed soldiers thought that this time they came out purely to carry out military affairs, and after they were done, they returned to the three major battalions to resume their lives, never thinking that they had been assigned to the Jinyi Guard, and the boss was still a hairless young man. At that moment, many people began to talk about it, some were glad that their ancestral tomb was smoking into the Jinyiwei, some were not convinced, and some were waiting to see the changes.

The reactions of all the soldiers were all expected by Qian Jin. As the saying goes, when a show meets a soldier, it is unreasonable. He still has to work hard to manage these people. If there is a foreign appearance at that time, I am afraid that Ding Shangshu will laugh there.

Qian Jin coughed and sneered: "Why, I can't insult you when I come to my thousand households." It's true that you are Jinyiwei now, but if you can't meet my requirements, Ben Qianhu guarantees that you will have to get out of the house in the next moment. ”

Seeing this, Ge Yun stepped forward and said, "Qianhu, the soldiers don't understand the rules, and the lower officials can't compensate for them." ”

"Ge Baihu, you don't have to say good things for them. I'll let you know later, others just want to come to me, and the official won't agree. Qian Jin pulled out the Wind Thunder Knife, and his fingers flicked lightly on the blade, buzzing.

Li Bin and Mu Qing knew that Qian Jin wanted to stand up with a sword, so they asked someone to get half of the armor, and one of them pulled it aside.

Qian Jin walked up to the two of them, raised his knife over the top, only to hear a buzz, and the armor was effortlessly split in half by the wind and thunder knife: "This knife is called wind and thunder, and the knife is as strong as the wind and as fast as thunder and lightning." ”

Immediately afterwards, Qian Jin instructed Wu Ju to take a wooden board and put it away. He himself stood a foot away, pulled out his musket and aimed it at the plank, and pulled the trigger. I only heard a "bang", the smoke of gunpowder dissipated, and the wooden board was scorched black one meter square, densely covered with iron sand.

"This is a flintlock musket, much better than the arquebus of your Shenji Battalion." Qian Jin blew his mouth and put the musket away again. Immediately afterwards, he took out the Night Dagger again, and waved it at the wooden board, and the blade Qi Gen sank: "This dagger is called Dark Night, and it can kill people invisibly." ”

Ge Yun and the soldiers have been in the army for a long time, and they come into contact with these weapons the most every day, but the most common in the army is still the willow leaf saber. As soon as Qian Jin demonstrated this, many soldiers began to heat up: they only need to have one of these three weapons, and they will not be able to brag in the army in the future.

That's what Qian Jin wants. He touched his nose and said with a smile: "I forgot to tell you just now that these three weapons will be the standard equipment of our soldiers in Qianhu in the future." ”

"What?"

"Everyone has such a valuable weapon?"

Many soldiers were surprised when they heard this. Since ancient times, treasure knives have been hard to find, and now Chen Guo's treasure knives are either in the palace, or in the hands of the generals in the military camp, how can the big-headed soldiers use them? Not to mention the preciousness of that short musket.

"Don't lie to me. Even if thousands of households are generous, but with so many treasure knives, where did you get them? A tall soldier asked.

"It won't be long before you will believe. But for now, you have to prove to me what you can do. This first hurdle, that is...... Drink. Qian Jin pointed to the big wine vat behind him and said.

All the soldiers looked at each other. When there is no military affairs, their biggest pastime in the barracks is fighting wine, and it is no problem for one person to drink two or three catties. Ge Yun also shook his head, and said in his heart that Qianhu is a meat bun beating a dog, what is it not good to fight, you have to fight wine.

The tall soldier who had just spoken walked up to the vat, took a sea bowl, scooped a full bowl and drank it. One bowl was not enjoyable, and after scooping another bowl and drinking it, he wiped his lips clean, and Shi Shiran returned to the queue.

Then, more than a dozen soldiers couldn't help but drink insects, and they gathered in front of the wine vat to drink, and the scene was chaotic for a while.

Qian Jin didn't stop it, he simply turned his back and still let those big-headed soldiers do it.

After touching a stick of incense, the vat of wine will see the bottom. Several big-headed soldiers burped, walked up to Qian Jin and said, "Qianhu, this wine is delicious, and a big vat is not enough for us to drink." ”

"Behind it is the winery, as long as you can drink it, there is enough wine in it for you to drink for a few years." Qian Jin smiled: "However, how can my family's wine be so delicious?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the tall soldier who had been the first to drink fell to the ground with a thud. Not long after, one after another, soldiers fell, and a large area lay down in the open space in front of the winery, which was not spectacular.

Ge Yun frowned and asked, "Qianhu, these soldiers are not strong enough to drink, what should I do?" ”

"It's warm inside the winery, drag them all in. The drunken soldier sobered up and went to receive the punishment himself. ”

"How should I be punished?"

"I run 30 laps around the winery every morning and evening, and I will come back to the test in half a month. When the time comes, those who can't pass the pass will pack up their baggage and leave. Qian Jin pointed at Wu Ju and said, "Ask the shopkeeper Wu for food and housing." ”

"Yes......"

In the days that followed, there was an even more spectacle near the winery. Every day, 300 soldiers ran shirtless and shouting trumpets on the dirt roads around the winery. Since being drunk by Qian Jin, they have somewhat accepted this boss in their hearts. If nothing else, the people in the barracks will naturally admit punishment if they drink and lose, and this reason makes sense everywhere. Besides, the wine seemed to be quite good, and they had a vague feeling that they might never be used to drinking anything else.

Qian Jin put the matter of these three hundred soldiers behind him for the time being. He instructed the guys in the winery to send 500 catties of blended wine to the military department to thank Ding Shangshu for helping to transfer soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, he went to the Zhenfu Division again to find the left commander to ask for military salaries and official uniforms. Although he is a supernumerary thousand-household, the Queen Mother has already nodded, and it is justified for him to ask for food. Originally, he could have raised it himself, but the daily food and drink of these three hundred men was not a small amount. Besides, if it is a self-raised soldier, wouldn't it become a private soldier? If the Queen Mother knows, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome.

Commander Zuo heard that Qian Jinguan asked for money and silver, and his face was ugly. But he couldn't, and he didn't dare to resist the decree and disrespect, so he had a problem and said that he would only pay once a month. Where is Qian Jin free, three days and two ends of the running town Fu Division, and in the end the two compromised into a four-month one.

After the money came in and left, the Commander Zuo overturned the table with all his might, and the books on the table were spilled on the ground. When Hong Menda heard the movement, he ordered a few personal guards to clean up, and he himself held the arm of the left commander and asked quietly: "Commander, what kind of anger are you doing?" ”

"It's not about making a fuss about the money. Since the day he entered the Zhenfu Division, he has never taken me seriously, do you think I'm angry? The left commander glanced back at Hong Menda and scolded: "Speaking of which, this wolf was brought in by you." ”

The commander laughed, how dare I do it. When investigating the official case, he came to the door with a holy decree. Hong Menda hugged his fist and continued: "Since the funeral of Shoufu, this money has been appreciated by the Queen Mother and Her Majesty, and he is now a celebrity. Don't make yourself uncomfortable when you're old. ”

"Even you don't listen to me now, haven't you?" Commander Zuo knew that what Hong Menda said was reasonable, but he couldn't accept this tone.

"Don't dare, you can dissipate your anger first......" Hong Menda went out and came in with a bowl of tea, carefully resting it on the table, and then slowly exited the duty room of the Commander Zuo.

When Commander Zuo was still sulking, Qian Jin went to the Guangdong Fellow Townspeople Hall and handed over the letter drafted yesterday to Xu Baolu.

Xu Baolu finished reading the fold and said: "It is not difficult to form a society and build a church, but the matter of opening a university requires a lot of silver." ”

"The school for lectures uses the Hanlin Academy, and there are only a few dozen students enrolled in the first batch, so it shouldn't be a problem to spend two taels of silver." Qian Jin paused and said, "The junior has another request." Dou Mari had to come to the academy to teach the students. ”

"Since you've thought so carefully, I'm not a problem here. In this way, I will go to the palace tomorrow and report these things to the Queen Mother in person, and ask her to decide. ”

"Thank you for your kindness......"

"Whatever you say, it's all for Chen Guo." Xu Baolu thought for a while, and then asked, "The matter of the treaty port has been decided, what are your plans for next?" ”

The younger generation was ready to wait for the spring, so they sent the coffin of the old Shoufu back to his hometown in Suzhou for burial. When that was over, I went south to do business. ”

Xu Baolu shook his head when he heard this, and said, "The nephew's heart is good. Actually, there's something I've been telling you for a long time. Those of my generation who study naturally hope to sell their talents to the emperor's family. It's good for you to start doing business as soon as you enter the capital. You have to worry a little about this court matter. ”

"There is no need to worry. Now that you are in charge of the court, some young people don't dare to make a mistake. After a pause, he said: "As for why I want to do business, you will naturally know when the time comes, and the younger generation will also need to verify it."

Xu Baolu glanced at Qian Jin suspiciously and nodded.

…………

On the official road to the west, a convoy of more than a dozen carriages was slowly moving forward, with about 30 people.

By this time, the sun had begun to set in the west, and the team was ready to find a place to rest their feet. I don't know what was in the carriage, it was old and heavy, and the convoy passed by, leaving two deep ditches on the dirt road.

In the second carriage, a white-robed scholar was reclining, one hand picking up a date from a low square table beside him from time to time to eat. This person is the Great Protector of the White Lotus Sect who has fought with Qian Jin. After visiting today's door, the Great Protector had a faint premonition, so he hurriedly took the Qingfeng Sword and fled through the tunnel.

"Fortunately, I reacted quickly, otherwise I would have almost let the money in and out of the way yesterday." The Great Dharma Protector sighed.

A big man next to him accompanied him and said carefully: "It's all because his subordinates are not doing well, and his subordinates don't know how he made up his mind about our yard." ”

"It's none of your business." The Great Protector pondered for a moment and said, "I suspect that Princess Jing has leaked our whereabouts. ”

"Not really. Although my White Lotus Sect is a religion of its own, it still has some mutual value with King Ming. ”

"The heart of guarding against others is indispensable, you should pay more attention."

"Yes......"
