Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it is May.

It's been almost two months since Wang Zheng's appointment, and those who want to see the jokes are all dumbfounded.

These people don't know much about the salt trade, and what they know is nothing more than a little, the inspection is very oily, and they are even more blind to the high profits of the cent.

Now many people have also found that the money in Wang Zheng's hand seems to be inexhaustible, and the previous inspection Zhang Da CD is far behind.

The various formations of the Wendeng battalion were pulled up at a very fast speed, not only the official hall, but also the entire camp was renovated, and countless soldiers and salters came and went all day long.

The recruitment and training of Yanding and recruits were carried out simultaneously, and the vicinity of Wendeng was even more lively than the state city.

According to the source of the inquiry, the Wendeng camp also sent people to Penglai Mansion City to buy pig iron and various kinds of firecrackers from afar and transport them into the armory in batches.

Therefore, there are also military generals who specially send their families to Penglai and other places to investigate, and the last news they got is that the Wendeng camp has always been very happy to pay the silver, and they will give as much as they want, and they will not bargain for the price and not be in arrears.

This makes everyone even more confused, in this poor and chaotic year, what is wrong with so much silver, you can't do a good inspection, why do you have to be a soldier and die, who knows when you will be pulled up and sent to death, it is a pity that the silver is not spent.

The local Yanding is not the same as the Wendeng soldiers, nor is it a descendant of the Yanding Brigade, and soon the training in Wendeng City was completed, and after being familiar with the daily subjects, several large and small leaders were selected, and the two thousand newly recruited Yanding were directly arranged by Wang Zheng to scatter seeds to various places in Ninghai Prefecture.

The days are still the same, and checkpoints have been set up in the important places that should be controlled, and some intersections are garrisoned by manors, and the inside of Yanding has not changed, but there is a name for the officers and soldiers under the command of Shou Rong outside, and the legitimacy is stronger.

However, at present, Wendeng is still the place where Wang Zheng is mainly operating, and in the future, he may gradually move his focus forward to Ninghai Prefecture City, which is also a state city, and there are many officials and officials, and it is much more convenient to do things than Wendeng, Chishan, Jinghai and other places.

Wang Zheng's focus is now slowly moving forward, but almost every household in Chishan and Hot Spring Town is begging for a living under the inspection department, and there are local salt guards to deter the guards, and the descendants brigade can provide reinforcements at any time as a mobile force.

Therefore, the rear is still very stable, and even a thief is rare, so there is no need to worry about anything at all.

Huang Yang was careful, and found that after the end of the Yanding drill in Ninghai Prefecture in early April, Wang Zheng's rules began to change, and the daily training of Wendeng recruits was handed over to him and Dong Youyin, Gao Liang, and Heizi.

In addition to Yu'er and Wang Liu's bedrooms, the most frequented place all day is the blacksmith shop of Ding Dong Dong, and he also practiced horseback riding and writing more diligently, although Huang Yang found out, he still couldn't figure it out.

Everyone has been to the blacksmith shop, but it is not for people, even in Jiaodong, which is quite cool at the moment, there is a continuous heat wave when you enter the blacksmith shop, and you have to take off a layer of skin inside and out.

However, Wang Zheng is like a demon, after the morning run, he goes into the blacksmith shop, and he stays for half a day, and at night, he often asks Fan Ruohai to find a few craftsmen to discuss and agree together, and the oil lamp is lit overnight.

That afternoon, the sky was on fire and the clouds were burning.

Wang Zheng sat in the private house and looked at the thick drawings intently, Yu'er walked in from outside the door with a basin of water, opened her mouth, and said softly:

"Brother Zheng is watching again, you haven't slept all night, can't you rest early?"

"Yu'er, go back first, although this drawing has been decided, but the test gun the day before yesterday still doesn't work, either the power is too small, or the range is less than fifty steps, there must be something wrong,,,

Yu'er wanted to say something more, but Wang Zheng had already lowered his head and pondered, at this time Wang Liu held Yu'er's hand from behind, looked at Wang Zheng from a distance, and said softly:

"Zheng'er is a person who wants to do big things, let him go."

"Ugh."

Nodding slightly, Yu'er walked out of the main hall step by step.

......

It was getting dark, the door of the house was ringing, Gao Liang stood outside and said hello, and after getting Wang Zheng's permission, he walked in respectfully, and before he could speak, he heard Wang Zheng ask in a deep voice:

"Any news over there?"

Gao Liang was dusty, his pants were still stained with mud, and he obviously came back from a long way, panting a few times, his expression was solemn, and there was no smile on his face.

"When I went back to Xietai, Jiang Da said that he had found a place, which was very similar to the ochre mine described by Xietai, but..."

Wang Zheng frowned and looked over: "It's just what, if you have something to say, you can finish it all at once, when did your kid become such a mother-in-law?" ”

Gao Liang coughed a few times and said:

"It's just that that place is on Yangma Island, since Liu Bei was beheaded by us, the salt road on Yangma Island is in chaos, and Qi Lai even sent people to build a Zhuangzi there, and there are hundreds of people now."

"Qi Lai?"

The last time he fought the Jinshui River, in order to prove himself, Guan Qingtian once told Wang Zheng everything he knew about the ins and outs.

The reason why Baitiao in the waves will go all the way to fight the Chishan Salt Farm is naturally that there are people behind the noise, and the noise is not enough, and there must be extremely rich benefits, Liu Bei of Yangma Island, and Qi Lai, a maritime merchant, all have a hatred for the king, so they collude with Baitiao in the waves.

The reason why they dare to do such a headless thing is that the biggest backer is none other than Zheng Hongkui's sister-in-law Zheng Ke, the Zheng child who has not dried up but has no one in his eyes, and has a grudge against Wang Zheng since he came to Ninghaizhou last time.

Qi Lai, Liu Bei and Zheng Ke discussed with each other, and they really hit it off.

Zheng Ke concealed that Zheng Hongkui provided the water bandits with stainless steel knives and forks and a large amount of gold and silver, and promised that as long as Langli Baitiao defeated the Chishan Salt Works, Zheng would help him claim Dengzhou.

It is unknown whether Zheng Ke can influence Zheng's thoughts, but he is simply lacking in brains and raising tigers for trouble.

The soldiers and civilians who had just settled down fell into dire straits again, the salt in Chishan Town was completely damaged, and the first team of Yan Ding who was tortured was beaten to only two people.

Guan Qingtian walked in and said:

"Liu Bei is dead, how are the remaining thieves compared to the Wendeng soldiers in Xietai?"

Gao Liang shook his head.

"Compared to the punishment of a knife, what about the Yanding Brigade in the hands of the Shao Yong brothers?"

Gao Liang shook his head again.

Speaking of this, Guan Qingtian sighed:

"As for the maritime merchant Qi Lai, he is just a dog who is struggling with the Zheng family, and Zheng Ke is even more narrow-minded, a rat-eyed person, and the combination of the rat generation and the rat generation is still a rat generation."

This time, Gao Liang suddenly realized and nodded again and again.

Wang Zheng clenched his fists and said coldly:

"Yangma Island is within the control of my Wendeng camp, but now there are rampant bandits there, and the people are in dire straits, how can this official bear it?"

"The chaos is like this, Master Guan, I order you to draw up a document immediately, and report it to Vice General Han overnight, and the camp will go out to Yangma Island in the next day to exterminate the thieves and appease the place."
