Shi Jin pointed at Tao Zongwang with Fang Tian's halberd and shouted, "I am Shi Jin, the nine-patterned dragon of Liangshan, I guess you have also heard of my name." I was going to take your life, but for the sake of you, you're a man. I won't kill you today, let you go back. This Huangmen Mountain is a hill land, how can you become an atmosphere here, go and persuade your brothers, or go to Liangshan with me to gather righteousness! ”

Hearing that the other party was Liangshan Nine-Pattern Dragon Shi Jin, Tao Zongwang arched his hand in horror and said, "I don't know if it was the good man Shi Jin who drove in, and he collided with his brother, don't be guilty." Tao Zongwang will go up the mountain to persuade my brother! ”

Shi Jin put away Fang Tian's halberd, and after Tao Zongwang saluted Shi, he walked back to the cottage with the support of several bandits.

The bandits who escaped returned to the cottage and cried: "Oh no, the four leaders have been captured!" ”

Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng, who was chatting in the middle hall, heard it and shouted angrily, "Who is so bold and daring to arrest my brother, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and gather people and horses to go down the mountain with me to rescue my brother!" ”

The rapid sound of gongs in the Huangmen Cottage sounded, and nearly four hundred bandits gathered.

Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng, Divine Operator Jiang Jing, and Iron Flute Immortal Malin all wore armor on their bodies, and were about to take the bandits down the mountain.

But I heard the bandits guarding the pass shouting loudly, "The four leaders are back, the four leaders are back safely!" ”

Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng shouted in surprise when he heard it: "What, the fourth brother is back, great!" ”

I saw the nine-tailed turtle Tao Zongwang clutching his chest and coming over.

Looking at Tao Zongwang with a wound, Ou Peng shouted fiercely, "Fourth brother, who injured you so badly, tell the eldest brother." Big brother will take someone to slaughter him and help you take revenge. ”

Tao Zongwang heard the busy persuasion: "Big brother, no." The one under the mountain is a big insect, it is Shi Jin, a good man of Liangshan Nine-Pattern Dragon! ”

Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng and the three of them shouted in surprise when they heard it, "What, it's Liangshan Hero Nine-Pattern Dragon Shi Jin." How did he get here? ”

Tao Zongwang shouted bitterly, "Xiao Ke doesn't know why Shi Jin came here, I thought it was ordinary people who wanted to rob them." Whoever knows, he will be captured in one round. Shi Haohan said that I was still a man, so he let me come back and let me go up the mountain to persuade everyone to go to Liangshan with him to gather righteousness! ”

Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng heard it and asked, "Come with him to Liangshan to gather righteousness?" How many men did he bring! ”

Tao Zongwang said bitterly, "I only brought twenty or thirty people, but with this bit of men, my men are not their opponents at all, and those who did not escape were all surrendered by them." They didn't suffer any casualties! ”

They knew that Tao Zongwang had taken more than 100 people with him when he went down the mountain, but they didn't expect to be defeated by more than 20 people.

There are no casualties in one dozen or five, which is scary!

Iron Flute Immortal Malin opened his mouth and said, "Big brother, our Huangmen Mountain is small, and there are no natural dangers, so it is easy to attack and difficult to defend. That Liangshan has 800 miles of water, easy to defend and difficult to attack, I heard that the nine-pattern dragon Shi Jin is a good man, we follow him to Liangshan Juyi is also a good choice! ”

Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng was a little hesitant when he heard this, and said in embarrassment, "Just submit to him like this, I'm afraid that I will be looked down upon by him!" ”

Jiang Jing, the god operator, opened his mouth and said: "Big brother, it's better to be obedient, if there is a conflict, it will not be beautiful if there are casualties." Huangmen Mountain has limited grain and grass, and raising three or five hundred thieves is already the limit. I heard that Shi Jin had a way to make money, and he didn't need to go down the mountain to rob his house and raise five or six thousand subordinates, and he made Liangshan prosperous. Today he only brought twenty or thirty people, obviously because he did not want to threaten us. People are kind, we can't help but appreciate it! ”

Tao Zongwang also persuaded, "Yes! Big brother, that nine-pattern dragon Shi Jin is really strong in martial arts, and Xiao Ke hasn't even survived a round. If it weren't for the mercy of his subordinates, Xiao Ke would only be afraid that he would come back alive. Xiao Ke also thinks it's good to be obedient! ”

Seeing that the three brothers were about to surrender, Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng couldn't object even if he had an opinion, he said, "Since all the brothers think it's good to take refuge in Liangshan, then we will submit to him and go to Liangshan together." ”

The three of them, Jiang Jing, the god operator, hurriedly arched their hands and said, "Good! ”

Deciding to submit, Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng immediately ran down the mountain with his three brothers and five thieves.

As soon as I saw Shi Jin. The four of them immediately shouted, "The four of us have only heard of the name of Shandong Nine Pattern Dragon Shijin, but we have never met. accidentally bumped into my brother, don't see the crime. We are willing to return to obedience and go to Liangshan together! ”

Shi Jin helped the four of them up and said, "Since the four of them are willing to follow the righteousness, please pack up and set off." ”

When the four of Moyun Jinyin Ou Peng heard this, they immediately packed up the wealth, gold, silver, and grain and grass pieces, and did not take any coarse pieces. led more than 200 bandits who were willing to go to Liangshan, burned down the fence, and followed Shi Jin to Liangshan.

The people he wanted to recruit along the way were all recruited, and Shi Jin didn't want to make more trouble when he returned, so he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

At the beginning of May, Shi Jin and his entourage finally returned to Liangshan.

The leaders of the cottage who stayed behind Zhu Wu, Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song and the three newcomers Pei Xuan, the fire-eyed and fierce Deng Fei, and the jade banner Meng Kang got Zhu Gui's report and knew that Shi Jin was back, so they all took a boat to the Dongshan Hotel to greet them.

Seeing Shi Jin, Zhu Wu and the others shouted in unison, "See big brother, be safe all the way!" ”

Shi Jin hurriedly dismounted and said, "Brothers, it's hard to guard Liangshan!" ”

Seeing more than 20 leaders and hundreds of soldiers bowing their hands to Shi Jin in unison deeply shocked Li Jun, looking at that scene, Li Jun couldn't help but think of how good it would be if he could be like Shi Jin in the future, even if he couldn't be the king and hegemon, he had to be under one person and above ten thousand people, so as to live up to his life.

Shi Jin shouted loudly as he walked forward, "It's windy outside, everyone, follow me up the mountain." ”

When he arrived at Zhongyi Hall, Shi Jin considered that there were many new arrivals, but it was inappropriate to sit on the right side as before.

According to the previous merits of the leader, Shi Jin rearranged the seats of the old people in Liangshan.

Left: Lin Chong, Zhu Wu, Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, Wu Song, Zhu Gui, Li Zhong, Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi, Chen Da, Yang Chun, Song Wan, Du Qian, Zhu Fu, Zhou Tong, Duan Jingzhu, Pang Wanchun, An Daoquan, Wang Dingliu, Cao Zheng, Zhang Qing, Sun Erniang.

On the right, sit down according to age: Luan Yanyu, Pei Xuan, Ou Peng, Li Jun, Wang Yin, Meng Kang, Deng Fei, Zhang Heng, Li Li, Zhang Shun, Tong Wei, Tong Meng, Jiang Jing, Ma Lin, Yuan Lang, Tao Zongwang.

Yang Zhi, Yang Chun, Zhang Qing, Sun Erniang, Cao Zheng, and Duan Jingzhu were not in Liangshan, and there were a total of thirty-three leaders sitting in Zhongyi Hall.

Shi Jin looked at his subordinates and said, "Brothers, we have a lot of heroes in Liangshan recently, which is gratifying." Tonight, Shi Jin will hold a banquet in Zhongyi Hall, everyone come! ”

……

That night, Shi Jin set up a celebratory feast and feasted many leaders.

In this banquet, Shi Jin also put his heart into it, and let the chef cook it with all his heart, there was no shortage of pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks and fish, and there were five tables full of dishes. Seeing a lot of dishes that I had never heard of before, the new leaders of the mountain all enjoyed themselves, and they were all happy.

Eating delicious food, pouring a few glasses of wine, and blowing a few nonsense, even strangers can hook their shoulders and call the brothers and sisters good!

The only thing that made Shi Jin feel embarrassed was that as there were more and more leaders on the mountain, even if one person toasted a glass, he would have to get thirty-three glasses of wine.

Where is Shi Jin resisting!

didn't drink to the end, Shi Jin was drunk and unconscious.

The next day, it was three poles, and Shi Jin woke up.

Meimei stretched her waist and didn't wait for herself to get out of bed and call the housekeeper.

Zhang Yan saw that Shi Jin was awake, and said happily: "You are awake." I'm going to prepare hot water to wash your face!" ”

After Zhang Yan finished speaking, she poured a lot of hot water from the copper kettle on the side into the basin, and then stretched out her slender jade hand, kneaded the silk cloth in the water, and handed it to Shi Jin.

Shi Jin took the face towel, rubbed his face and said, "Yan'er, how long have I been sleeping?" ”

Zhang Yan said: "It's time now! ”

Shi Jin was surprised when he heard it, and said, "It's so late?" In the future, you should drink a little less alcohol, otherwise you will even delay your daily exercise. Yan'er, quickly prepare clothes for me, and ask someone to make some porridge by the way. ”

Seeing that Shi Jin was about to leave when he woke up, Zhang Yan looked very resentful, but she didn't dare to disturb Shi Jin, turned around and went to the wardrobe to help find a set of clean clothes.

Shi Jin saw Zhang Yan's lonely eyes, took Zhang Yan in his arms from behind and said, "What's wrong?" Sad? ”

Zhang Yan forced a smile and said: "No, I am happy to see that you are back!" ”

Shi Jin gently kissed Zhang Yan's forehead and said, "I've been busy lately, so I don't have much time to accompany you, I'll accompany you well when I'm done!" ”

Zhang Yan smiled at this time, nodded and said, "Hmm! ”

After Shi Jin got dressed and drank a bowl of fish fillet porridge, he thought about his next plan.

With the development of various businesses and the enhancement of strength in Liangshan, the accounting and statistics of various amounts such as the income from salt sales, the income from wine sales, and the payment of soldiers, horses, grain, grass, and money are cumbersome and complicated.

Although Zhu Wu also understands some calculations, he is not proficient, not to mention that he has to help the staff officers and make plans.

Those data accounting statistics made him feel more and more powerless.

Zhu Gui can only be literate, plus he has to be in charge of the intelligence department, so he doesn't have the ability and energy to help Zhu Wu.

As for the other leaders, not to mention, it would be good to be literate, and they were expected to know math and statistics!

Shi Jin deliberately took a detour to Huangmen Mountain, just to recruit Jiang Jing, a god operator.

Jiang Jing is proficient in calligraphy and arithmetic, and can "accumulate thousands of thousands, and the fiber is not bad", so he is called a god operator.

With Jiang Jing, he can better statistically summarize the various data of Liangshan, so that Shi Jin can understand Liangshan more conveniently and clearly.

In addition to the problem of statistics, Liangshan also has a big problem about the formulation and implementation of rewards and punishments.

In the past, there were only a few hundred people, and Shi Jin often led the soldiers to train, and when he saw that soldier or that leader was lazy, Shi Jin could directly punish him.

But now, with the increase in the number of soldiers, Shi Jin has more and more things to deal with, and he can't have most of the time to stare at the training of his subordinates and punish and reward.

In addition to these two points, there are also a lot of small problems that have also been exposed with the increase in the number and strength of Liangshan.

The extensive management system earlier is no longer suitable for the current development of Liangshan!

I used to know that there was a problem with the current management system in Liangshan, but because there was no suitable manpower, Shi Jin had been barely maintaining.

Now that a few key people have gone up the mountain, Shi Jin can finally let go of the adjustment and improvement of the management system.

Shi Jin asked people to invite Zhu Wu, Zhu Gui, Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, Wang Yin, An Daoquan, Ruan Xiaoer, Pei Xuan, and Jiang Jing over.

After seeing them coming, he said: "Brothers, now Liangshan has your help and is thriving. This is everyone's credit, Shi Jin is here to thank you! ”

Several people present hurriedly stood up and bowed in return, "Don't dare to ask for credit, it's all Big Brother Shi (the big boss) who is well led!" ”

Shi Jin waved his hand to signal them all to sit down, and Shi Jin continued: "Everyone, Liangshan is developing rapidly, but you must also see that with the development, many problems have also been exposed. Responsibilities are not clear, rewards and punishments are unclear, and management is chaotic. I feel that the previous management methods are no longer suitable for our current situation in Liangshan, and it is time to make a change. I invite you to come today, just to discuss with you and see how to change it in order to make Liangshan develop better! ”

Several leaders glanced at each other, and finally Zhu Wu stood up and arched his hand and said, "I don't know what kind of change the eldest brother wants?" ”

Shi Jin said: "That's the case, what I mean, to imitate the system of three provinces and six ministries to formulate a system that is in line with us. First of all, the two departments of the History Department and the Ministry of Rites can be removed. The military department, the household department, and the criminal department were retained. The Ministry of Industry is also not applicable to us, and if we want to change it, we will change it to the Organization and Logistics Department. Then I would like to add a Ministry of Security, a Ministry of Health. ”

Immediately afterwards, Shi Jin explained the meaning of each noun to the leaders present.

"The military department is responsible for leading troops in battle, training soldiers, preparing ordnance, and carrying out military orders. The main person in charge is me, Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, and Ruan Xiaoer are the deputies, and there are cavalry battalions, spear battalions, knife battalions and sailor battalions! ”

"The Ministry of Security is responsible for probing and analyzing various sources, and then formulating a strategic plan for the development of Yangsan based on the information. The main person in charge is Zhu Wu, and Zhu Gui and Wang Yin are deputies! ”

"In addition to the statistics and accounting of money and grain, the household department is also responsible for all financial matters such as the purchase and sale of salt and wine, the payment of salaries, and so on. Jiang Jing is in charge! ”

"The organization and logistics department is the department that is responsible for the deployment of manpower to ensure the food, clothing, shelter and transportation of combatants and non-combatants according to the plan or the various activities plan. I will temporarily let Hu Sanniang be in charge, and I will replace her when there is a suitable person in the future. Duan Jingzhu, Meng Kang and Tao Zongwang served as her deputies. ”

"The Penal Department is responsible for reviewing the various laws and enforcing the judgment of rewards and punishments in accordance with the existing laws. Yuan Xuan is in charge of the Criminal Department, and I will send a hundred soldiers to you as law enforcement soldiers to help you carry out the sentence! ”

"The Ministry of Health is responsible for strengthening the medical and health work in Yangsan, as well as training doctors, medical soldiers of the army, and writing medical books. Antao is the main person in charge! ”

After explaining, Shi Jin inspected the leaders present and said, "The specific and detailed content of the department, I will discuss it with the heads of each department later." Do you have any objections to the arrangement of the heads of various departments? ””

Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen, the two generals who led the troops, felt that this change had no impact on them, and in the end, they all listened to Shi Jin.

An Daoquan, Jiang Jing, and Pei Xuan were very satisfied with the arrangement of their status promotion, how could they object.

Only Zhu Wu, who has been following Shi Jin for a long time, can feel something unusual about this system and vaguely understand Shi Jin's ambitions.

When Zhu Wu thought of Shi Jin's ambition, he was surprised and delighted.

I am afraid that Shi Jin's ambition is so big, and I am happy that once Shi Jin succeeds.

What about yourself?

Zhu Wu thought that he was an old man who followed Shi Jin all the way, if there was really such a day, would his status be worse?

Even if he knew the consequences of the failure of that ambition, Zhu Wu still couldn't stand the glory that that ambition brought to him after it succeeded.

Zhu Wu and the others hurriedly shouted, "There is no objection!" ”
