Chapter 69: Layout
Bai Bing's parents looked at Wei Yang and his party with vigilant eyes, as a Red Party, their dislike for warlords was engraved in their bones.
In addition, Wei Yang doesn't look like a good person at first glance, and his daughter's appearance is too easy to associate with many things.
The Bai family didn't even plan to leave the gloomy place of the prison first, and began to ask about what happened to Bai Bing.
After figuring out a lot of reasons, they held back their anger and didn't immediately come over to trouble Wei Yang.
Wei Yang was standing far away at this time, and he naturally understood that Bai Bing's parents were afraid that they would not be grateful to him, but on the contrary, they were afraid that they would have a big opinion of themselves.
After thinking about it for a while, he still didn't come forward to greet them, so as not to disturb the reunion of the family, and said to Yue Jianfei: "You take someone to send Miss Bai home, and come back when the matter is done." ”
Wei Yang's mentality has changed a lot now, but he doesn't want to gain nothing, and Yue Jianfei also knows what Wei Yang means.
After finishing the Bai family's business, Wei Yang went to the hospital, and saw that Han Qing's face was much better and he was a lot more relieved.
Han Qing's attitude towards Wei Yang was much better, and she was a patient who in turn shushed Wei Yang and asked for warmth, which suddenly made Wei Yang feel a little guilty.
Originally, Wei Yang planned to tell her about Bai Bing, but in the end he held back.
He is now a sick person, and if he is hit and his condition repeats like that, then he will really become a villain.
The next day, the meeting was held, and basically all the rich and powerful people in Hunan Province came, a total of more than 100 people.
The main content of the meeting was the two centers of gravity, namely, the suppression of bandits and the payment of taxes.
These guys have their own mothers, and they all have abacus in their hearts, and it's really difficult for them to come out with real things.
The next thing is to rip off, but Wei Yang agreed happily.
The tax is not too much for himself, and a huge Yuezhou is only more than 30,000 oceans.
Yuezhou has a good geographical location, and there is a large wharf, plus the Yuezhou waterway connects Chongqing and Sichuan Province, and there are more places to collect taxes, and there are only more than 30,000 oceans of tax revenue.
Wei Yang knew that Yuezhou could receive more than 100,000 oceans of taxes a year, and after subtracting local expenses, what could be left was more than 40,000 oceans.
However, local officials cannot survive by relying on taxes, and most of the warlords and local officials have black income and local filial piety.
Even a little tax in this place is actually very difficult to collect.
Everyone is looking at money, forming gangs everywhere, and if you have a backer, will you take care of the tasks above?
After returning home, Bai Jinyuan and Deng Xiangyue were unhappy, thinking that their daughter was going to marry an ugly warlord as a concubine, and the two of them were even worse than dead.
Even if it is a good advice, his daughter is still saying good things for him.
Think about it, you know the suffering in your daughter's heart, and you are not worried about the suffering of your parents?
Looking at the dozens of soldiers standing outside his door, he knew that it was impossible to run.
In these years, he was useless as a scholar, and the organization was purged in Baisha, and those who were alive were also imprisoned.
If his wife were not teachers, I am afraid that they would also be tortured inhumanely.
In addition, this is still because people saw that the couple was about to be targeted, so they didn't toss much.
stayed in Baisha for two days, and when she went back, Bai Bing also walked with her as promised, and I don't know how she got her parents to agree.
Originally, Liu Xing wanted to invite the Bai family and his wife to Yuezhou together, but when they saw that they wanted to kill themselves, they rejected Yue Jianfei's proposal.
Wei Yang felt that he had done what he should have done, and he didn't hope that they would identify with him.
Compared with Han Qing's resentful eyes, Wei Yang was quite helpless, so this time he went to Yuezhou, and Wei Yang went to Causeway Mountain.
The Japanese had already begun to look for gold there, and found the golden sand left by Wei Yang in the Tongzhou River.
It's just that they tried their best and didn't find the big gold mine they wanted.
The little gold mine did find two, but the scarce production drove them crazy.
The people sent by Wei Yang also didn't know anything, and the coercion and temptation only said that the boss told him that he had made it in the river.
In desperation, Daji Ishikawa ran to the mountain and blocked Weiyang.
Wei Yang's idea is actually very simple, he hopes to use gold to bring hatred to little Japan.
As soon as the big gold mine comes out, will the Western powers not jump out and take advantage?
With the greed of little Japan, are they willing to give up what is in their bowl for others to snatch?
Seeing Wei Yang, Daiki Ishikawa suppressed the anger in his heart and talked to Wei Yang about the gold mine.
Wei Yang thought about it for a long time, nodded and promised to take Little Japan to the location of the gold mine in three days, which made Daikishi Ishikawa let go of his entanglement.
The news of the extraordinarily large gold mine in the secret became more and more popular, and the British and Americans were also keeping an eye on the sidelines, and they secretly sent a lot of eyes to keep an eye on the Japanese.
Three days later, in the Tongzhou River, the first gold was salvaged in an underground river.
Finally seeing the real money, little Japan is satisfied.
Although the construction in the underground river is more difficult, the cheapest thing in the world is labor, and the large equipment is not easy to construct, and if there are many people to a certain extent, the role of the machinery will be canceled out.
Wei Yang's matter didn't stay long after it was done, anyway, how to make trouble in the end of this matter and wait to watch the show.
In the underground dark river, Wei Yang lost five tons of gold, although the gold was relatively scattered, but the golden sand was paved in the dark river of less than two thousand square meters.
Back at Causeway Mountain, Wei Yang began to have a headache again.
The problem now is that his power is constantly expanding, but there is no one who can really take care of things for himself.
A lot of trivial things have to be decided by themselves.
Whether it is military training, or building roads, bunkers, or clothing, food, housing, and transportation, these are all things.
Secretly have to intrigue with people outside, many times Wei Yang doesn't want to care about this, but he has to make an attitude, otherwise he will be sold one day, and he doesn't know how to sell it.
Although those tent stewards on the mountain dare not touch their own things now, but people's hearts are complicated, Wei Yang does not plan to make any big moves before the big competition of the whole army, and he will be busy after the big competition.
The first thing to do is to completely eliminate the bandits within a hundred kilometers of him.
Again, I want to build a larger base, although there are many relatively large flat land on the mountain, but there are a lot more people now, and if there are more, it will not be able to be settled, which is also a big problem.
After careful selection, Wei Yang found that less than sixty miles away from Causeway Mountain, there was a good place to build a base for himself.
This place is called Yuanshan Town, surrounded by mountains of seven or eight hundred meters, and it is bordered by Hubei Province.
There are two roads into Wonsan Town, and there are two mountain paths, and one of them leads to Causeway Mountain.
The ideal thing is that there are several large flat lands here, and there is a large reservoir dozens of kilometers long, so to speak, there are all the conditions for a large base.
For this reason, Wei Yang took more than 50 guards and went straight to Yuanshan Town to investigate.
Wonsan Town is not a small town, with a population of nearly 3,000 households, almost 20,000 people.
And most of the land here is in the hands of the Yang family.
The Yang family has been rooted in Yuanshan Town for two or three hundred years, and its power is not small.
In addition, most of the people here are surnamed Yang, and there are more than 100 people in the Yang family's caretaker's nursing home, and each of them has a fast gun.
Wei Yang didn't come here to grab territory, and Wei Yang didn't want to use force if he couldn't use force, after all, it took a lot of people to build a base, and he didn't want to make people panic.
The Yang family's meeting hall was full of people, and the Weiyang people got the news before they arrived at the Yang family in Yuanshan Town.
Yang Zhenxing, as the patriarch of the Yang family, Wei Yang came here and definitely had the greatest impact on the Yang family.
Now Wei Yang is an official, but the difference between the current warlord and the bandit is not much, not to mention that Wei Yang himself is a bandit.
Looking at the panicked clansmen below, Yang Zhenxing was very helpless.
A large family of people, who have been in a place for a long time, suddenly comes a big tiger, and they completely lose their proportion.
Although the Yang family is not a sheep, it can only be regarded as a wolf at best.
In the face of tigers, they just have the courage to provoke.
With the famous and powerful record of Causeway Mountain, the result of challenging such a big man is naturally self-evident, and the failure must be the Yang family.
This is an unsolvable game, and Yang Zhenxing is bored when he thinks about it.
What puzzled them was, why did Wei Yang fancy such a place?
An old man with silver hair spoke: "Zhenxing, if they want money, our Yang family still has a little family background for hundreds of years." But people want land, this is our root, how will we live without land, and the Yang family will be scattered in the future. ”
As soon as he spoke, many people echoed him.
"We must not agree to the request of the surname Wei!"
Yang Zhenxing said with a cold face: "We have to make two preparations now, one is that it is best to get the money to send the surname Wei away, and the other is what if people want to build a military base?" He has tens of thousands of horses and cannons, and with our Yang family's one hundred and ten people, they can destroy us casually. ”
