According to the plan, the Wen Party is also going to speak. When it came to the end, Wen Dang felt that his words had no effect in front of these bandits, and since Su Ren was there, he was not worried about what could happen to these bandits. Wen Dang was very relieved, and only told Su Ren: "Practice as soon as possible!" Then he left the barracks with the subordinate officers of the Taishou Mansion.

The next thing was simple, three hundred people selected from the caravan escort were selected as junior officers and equipped with these bandits. First as the instructor of the training, as for the lowest level of the captain, even the chief can only be slowly discovered and selected from the bandits in the training. Su Ren also introduced the people from the Captain's Mansion, except for Hawking and Gou Tianming, who were appointed as military candidates and each led half of the soldiers and horses. Li Cheng, Sima, and Sima Xiangru, both made appointments. The manpower of the Chengdu Captain's Mansion is complete.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to the county soldiers, Su Renzai established a new unit, that is, the service soldiers. Led by the three lame sons, the two dozen or so old and weak who remained in the camp were gathered together and were responsible for the food, laundry, and sanitation of more than 1,000 people. Of course, these two dozen or so were not enough, and more than 100 people were selected from those beggars and homeless people in Chengdu, adding up to 200 people.

Sima Xiangru was puzzled: "What is the use of these orderlies?" If it is said that cooking and laundry are to let the soldiers fight wholeheartedly, it is understandable at the bottom, but this sanitation is also in their care, is it a bit too much? This must be a barracks, not Chengdu Street! ”

Su Ren waved his hand: "It is precisely because it is a barracks that we should pay more attention to hygiene, we are almost 2,000 people living here, and if we are not careful, there will be an epidemic, and now there is a shortage of doctors and medicines, so we can only start with hygiene, and I am ready to set up a medical battalion in the future, and I will diagnose the soldiers in my spare time, and the soldiers can also get timely treatment in wartime, and the soldiers will not have to worry about the future, and they can move forward!" ”

Li Cheng nodded: "The lieutenant's subordinates agree with this, although we are county soldiers, we are not as good as the two armies of the north and south, but Shu County is located in a remote area and borders the barbarians and Qiang people, and war can happen at any time, our Chengdu county soldiers have no worries, they must be the most powerful elite soldiers!" ”

Su Ren smiled: "Li Sima said well, I never thought that I would lead the troops one day, since I sat in the place of Chengdu Captain, not for others, in order to have more chances to survive in wartime, I have to train more than 1,000 people, I am afraid of death, and I want to rely on these people to save my life, so I can only be kind to them!" ”

"The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will fully support the captain!" Li Cheng bowed his hand and looked subdued.

Su Ren nodded and motioned for the two to sit down: "Okay, now that the problem of the soldiers has been solved, we have to start the training of the county soldiers, and the three of us will divide the work, from today onwards, Li Sima will be responsible for the training of the county soldiers, and Hawking and Gou Tianming will be commanded by you!" ”

"This ......, his subordinate is just a Sima, and Huo and Gou are already military candidates, I'm afraid ......"

"There's nothing to be afraid of, among so many of us, only you are an authentic soldier, who else can you expect if you don't take care of it? Those two guys, I will personally find them and say, don't worry! ”

"Captain Xie trusts, and his subordinates will be smeared!"

"Those orderly soldiers will be handed over to Mr. Sima, except for the training and combat of the soldiers, everything is on duty, Brother Sima has no objection, right?"

Sima Xiangru shook his head and agreed: "The two of us have done the thing, what are you doing, sir?" ”

"Ugh!" Su Ren was slightly stunned: "Me?" Naturally, it is dispatched in the center, and as a school captain, he naturally controls the overall situation, how can he be as personal as you, so what is the use of you, Sima and Yicao? ”

"Hahaha......" Sima Xiangru and Li Cheng looked at each other and laughed, and they didn't say anything about Su Ren's lazy approach.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and once you get moving, you will slowly get on the right track, and all it takes is a matter of time. Under Su Ren's deterrence, these bandits who came to Chengdu were quite cooperative, and the training of the county soldiers was also going smoothly. The newly established service battalion is also operating in an orderly manner, and the lame third son is sweaty, but he is very happy. Since I made my own head, I feel a lot more stable when I walk.

Looking at the heat in the barracks, Cui Jiuming pouted: "Okay!" You can do it! The county barracks, which is about to finish, suddenly rose up in your hands, and I admire you for that! ”

Su Ren rolled his eyes: "Don't admire it first, let's get down to business!" ”

"Oh!" Putting down the wine glass in his hand, Cui Jiuming said: "The iron smelting shop will open soon, but there is no iron mine!" Even if we open it, we have to close, and the equipment of more than 1,000 people can't be built in a short time, so if I want to say that our iron-smelting shop is purely throwing money! ”

"What kind of posture is the Zhuo family now?"

"By the way, I forgot if you didn't ask!" Cui Jiuming hurriedly said: "The Zhuo family has suddenly become quiet these days, not only Zhuo Wangsun stays at home all day, but even his family's iron shop and mine have also stopped. ”

"Stoppage? What about the craftsmen? ”

"The Zhuo family is raised, and I don't know what illness Zhuo Wangsun has committed!"

"Good!" Su Ren stood up with a happy face: "Very good!" Listen to me, tomorrow you will organize people to go to Yuanshan and Yelang to transport back the armor we made, remember to make a big noise, and you must let Zhuo Wangsun know, remember? ”

Cui Jiuming nodded: "Yes!" But do you really have to do it? You must know that the armor we built in Yelang and Yuanshan is not as good as the Zhuo family, even if it is shipped back, it is useless, but although those armors are broken, they can earn back dozens of times the profit when they are sold to Yelang and Qiang, so it is a pity to bring them back and give them to the county soldiers? ”

"So what? This is our business, you can do what you want! ”

Cui Jiuming said with a smile: "Don't lie to me, you want to use these armor to squeeze the Zhuo family's iron-smelting shop, but I advise you, it's okay to scare and scare people, it really won't work if people see it!" ”

The county barracks were in full swing, and Chengdu City was also in full swing, and the matter of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce to transport back the armor from Yelang and Yuanshan soon spread in Chengdu. As a businessman in Shu County, the most important business at present is the reconstruction of the county soldiers, tens of thousands of county soldiers eat horses and chew every day, and most of these people do not farm and rely on the imperial court to raise. In order to rebuild the county soldiers, it is natural to purchase a lot of things.

"Shopkeeper Huo, do you really want to transport the armor back?" On the second floor of Zuixiang Building, in the window position, Huo Laosi was receiving a few shopkeepers who wanted to join the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce. Today's Huo Laosi is Su Ren's spokesperson in Chengdu, compared with the original smuggler of salt, he is not only fat but also rich, and the color of his face has become a lot ruddy.

Huo Laosi said while drinking tea: "I don't know the news you heard from there, it must be fake, my husband is busy with the county soldiers now, and he has never said anything about the transfer of soldiers, the armor of the county soldiers is distributed by the imperial court, how can it not be my husband's turn to pay for it himself, right?" ”

Two shopkeepers nodded again and again: "Shopkeeper Huo is right, in the past, our armor in Shu County and even in Shu was supplied by the Zhuo family, and Taishou would not travel thousands of miles from Yelang and Yuanshan!" ”

"It's hard to say, the Zhuo family has stopped now, the mine and the iron-smelting workshop have all stopped, I heard that there is no ore left, and the ore vein is broken!" The other shopkeeper shook his head: "The Zhuo family has been in the armor business in Shu County for so many years, and the amount of money they have earned is too much to count, so they have to force his daughter to sell wine on the street, how can Zhuo Wangsun look like a father, and God must be punishing him if the ore vein is broken!" ”

Rumors are the fastest thing to spread, and through the appearance of things, people use their imagination to arbitrarily distort their understanding of the matter, and they all stubbornly believe that they are right. Therefore, the rumors that have been circulated are also strange and varied. Since the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce announced in a high-profile manner that it would participate in the cause of the reconstruction of the soldiers of Shu County, the rumors could no longer be restrained.

While eating, Zhuo Wangsun listened to the housekeeper's report on the rumors. He was very calm, he never believed that Su Ren could make any kind of armor, and he sent people to inquire about the armor that was transported to Yelang and Qiangdi, and it was all the simplest and most ordinary things, not to mention the iron armor, not even the thick leather armor. Zhuo Wang Sun Cai would not believe that Taishou and Tang Meng were ready to arm their county soldiers with these things.

"Master, are we going to ship something, Tang Duwei has urged it several times, if it is ......"

Zhuo Wangsun raised his head and glared at the housekeeper, who hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word: "Our warehouse can be hidden?" Did you find anything suspicious? ”

The housekeeper hurriedly shook his head: "Everything is normal, everything is properly protected, and there is nothing wrong!" ”

Zhuo Wangsun nodded: "That's good!" Tell those craftsmen that as long as they stay in the Zhuo family and wait for this matter to pass, I will increase their wages by 10%! ”

"The hosts! This is also a lot of money! ”

"Hehe, are we still short of money now? In the eyes of Chengdu people, our family is already rich! ”

"No! The villain will do it! ”

Dong Zhongshu has been staying in Chengdu. When he came, one of the tasks given to him by the Son of Heaven was to look at Su Ren, but until now he didn't understand Su Ren. Whether it is Su Ren's business or leading the troops, it is completely beyond Dong Zhongshu's cognition. In Su Ren's eyes, all the people who could be used by himself did not escape from his palms, even if they were enemies.

Looking back at his daughter hiding behind the screen, Dong Zhongshu was worried. I don't know when it started, as long as someone talked about Su Ren's affairs, his baby daughter would hide behind the screen and eavesdrop. When some interesting stories are told, you can still hear laughter.

Seeing that Wen Dang's face was calm, and he didn't have any worries about the current situation in Chengdu, as a friend of Wen Dang, Dong Zhongshu reminded: "Wen Weng, since ancient times, businessmen have been pursuing profits, and Su Ren is blatantly fighting with the Zhuo family, is it a little inappropriate to be a school captain?" You have the responsibility to educate the people, and you can't watch the battle between merchants and merchants ruin Shu County and ruin the world of our Han Dynasty! ”
