Chapter 43 Qiao Daoqing offers advice
"It turned out to be Jiang Zhuangshi!" , Li Jing saw Jiang Wei hugging his fist and signaled to him, and also returned a salute, listening to Qiao Daoqing then introduced:
"Brother Jiang was originally the son of a wealthy family in Hebei, when Hebei was affected by the disaster, the imperial court was not effective in disaster relief, and it was Tian Hu who was able to gather people as bandits, roaring mountains and forests. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoLater, Tian Hu coveted the property of the Jiang brothers, and under the persuasion of Xiao Ke, he dedicated the family property to Tian Hu, so that he was able to break the wealth and avoid disasters. ”
Li Jingxian heard Qiao Daoqing call Tian Hu's name directly, he was secretly happy in his heart, listened to Jiang Wei's experience of being forced to fall to the grass, looked at Jiang Wei's fists clenched tightly, and already understood what Qiao Daoqing meant. Li Jingxun searched his mind, and he didn't remember that there was a good man named Jiang Wei, but it didn't matter, looking at Jiang Wei's body shape, it was not easy to look at. And it was introduced by Qiao Daoqing, so he is naturally not the kind of person who is useless.
Then Li Jing asked Qiao Daoqing to go up the mountain to talk, on the way, the two took a small boat together, Qiao Daoqing asked about what he heard in the hotel yesterday, and after learning more about it, Qiao Daoqing suggested: "If the owner of Li Zhai is interested, he may wish to extend this transaction to Shandong, and even to the north." ”
Li Jing pondered for a moment, but still decided to talk to him: "I have also thought about what Mr. said, Jingdong East Road is okay, Qingzhou has Taohua Mountain, Qizhou has Shadow Mountain, Guanzhou has Dry Tree Mountain, my Liangshan is located in the middle of the two roads, and Xuzhou Pei County also has Mangdang Mountain. Most of these are small cottages, with as few as two or three hundred people, as many as seven or eight hundred, and there is only one Mangdang Mountain, with two or three thousand people, but I am not afraid of him. These passes are fine, and those small villages can be determined by sending people to discuss them, but it is a little difficult to go further north. ”
Qiao Daoqing saw that Li Jing already had such an idea in his heart, and secretly admired it in his heart, if he really let Li Jing do this, not only the silver income, but also the fame would spread all over the world. To tell the truth, although Tian Hu still has the appearance of Corporal Lixian now, Qiao Daoqing has seen through Tian Hu for many years under Tian Hu, and he is very disappointed in him, if it weren't for the fact that his family is still in Tian Hu's hands, Qiao Daoqing would be ready to leave Tian Hu.
But when Li Jing appeared in front of him, Qiao Daoqing had another choice, he now heard what Li Jing did in Liangshan, and knew that Li Jing's plan was not small, so he had the idea of getting out of Tian Hu by Li Jing's hand, and he was grateful, this was the reason why Qiao Daoqing was willing to give advice to Li Jing and introduce Jiang Wei to Li Jing.
After thinking for a long time, Qiao Daoqing suddenly thought of a few people, and after Li Jing invited him to the hall, Qiao Daoqing said: "Xiao Ke has seen three heroes in Jizhou Yinmachuan, respectively called 'Iron Face' Pei Xuan, 'Fire-eyed Foxy' Deng Fei, 'Jade Banner Pole' Meng Kang, this 'Jade Banner Pole' is still a good shipbuilder, these three people are righteous men, Yinmachuan is not far from Cangzhou Chai Daguan, I think the owner of Li Zhai should be able to use it." ”
Li Jing patted his forehead, why didn't he expect that these three people, if they were adding Chai Jin, Hebei East Road would also be under control. After Qiao Daoqing's reminder, Li Jing's mind also came alive, and now Shi Jin and Zhu Wu and his group are in Shaohua Mountain, Jingzhao Mansion, if they can expand their power there, Liangshan can really be the head of the northern land.
Of course, this is basically just a thought, after all, there is a Gyeonggi land between the two places, how can it be so easy to connect.
After a detailed discussion with Qiao Daoqing, Li Jing was more sure of his own idea, first integrate the cottages near Liangshan, expand his power, and gradually expand the scope of trade routes under the protection of Liangshan, even those who are unwilling to defect to Liangshan can also share the profits, of course, the first premise of all this is strength, if Liangshan's strength is not enough, all plans are in vain.
And Li Jing has already felt that there are still too few people in Liangshan at present, even if you add the old and weak women and children, it is just over two thousand, and Mangdangshan now has two or three thousand minions alone, recruit people, recruit people immediately! Li Jing only had one thought in his mind now.
It's just that the trip to Bianjing is imminent, and Li Jing doesn't want Gao Yu to plan another attack on Liangshan.
Qiao Daoqing's trip was to send his daughter back in exchange for Bian Xiang, because he didn't stay in Liangshan for long, and soon after offering advice to Li Jing, Qiao Daoqing saw Bian Xiang with a red face, and it could be seen that Bian Xiang had a very good life in Liangshan.
Indeed, if it weren't for Tian Hu sending someone to pick him up, Bian Xiang really didn't want to leave, he enjoyed the treatment of a leader here, and he didn't have to do anything, if Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen were free, they would also learn martial arts together, but they had a friendship, this time they left, I don't know when they would see each other again, Bian Xiang was still a little reluctant.
Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen were also a little reluctant to this straightforward man, but they knew Bian Xiang's personality and didn't do much to keep him. That night, due to injuries, the three of them were very drunk.
On the second day, Qiao Daoqing and Bian Xiang left Liangshan, and before Qiao Daoqing left, he agreed with Li Jing that if there was an emergency in Hebei, he would send Jiang Wei to report the news, and he would not mention it.
……
When Li Jing was trying to find a way to recruit troops for Liangshan, a major event also happened in Bianjing, Zuo advised the doctor Liu Anshi to write a letter to impeach Cai Jing, and counted Cai Jing's seven charges such as the battle of Huashigang and the casting of ten coins for personal gain, and Cai Jing's old enemy Zhang Kegong naturally did not stand idly by when he saw this, and he also brought a few ministers to the letter to second.
Zhang Kegong is none other than Zhang Shuye's younger brother, who impeached Cai Jing in the third year of Daguan, causing Cai Jing to step down, and thus formed a feud with Cai Jing, but soon after, Zhao Ji was reluctant to Cai Jing, and re-enabled Cai Jing, and in order to balance Cai Jing, Zhang Kegong has been left in the court by Zhao Ji. After Cai Jing was reinstated, he hated Zhang Kegong deeply, but he repeatedly impeached him to no avail, and he guessed Zhao Ji's intentions in his heart, so he did not continue to attack Zhang Kegong.
But Cai Jing couldn't get angry, but instead set his sights on Uncle Zhang, of course Zhao Ji didn't bother to maintain Uncle Zhang, which created the ups and downs of Uncle Zhang's officialdom.
To say that this kind of impeachment of the imperial court had nothing to do with Li Jing, but one of Cai Jing's crimes was that the selection of officials was ineffective, resulting in a large number of grass, and I don't know where Liu Anshi heard about it, and presented Liang Shanbo as the most powerful evidence in front of the court officials.
Although Zhao Ji is comfortable with Cai Jing now, he doesn't want to change his appearance. For the matter of Hua Shigang, it was originally related to Zhao Ji, it can be said that the origin of Hua Shigang is Zhao Ji, and Cai Jing is just the executor. But something happened in the place, and Zhao Jike took it to heart, so he asked Gao Yu about it.
Gao Yu and Cai Jing were still in the honeymoon period at this time, and they would not fall into the ground, but instead wrote to defend Cai Jing, saying, "The Liangshan bandits have been wiped out by most of the soldiers and horses in Jeju, and only some of the remaining bandits are hiding in the water, which is not worth mentioning." As for the rest of the realms, it is even more peaceful and prosperous......"
Zhao Ji was very happy to sing the praises of virtue, and he didn't study the truth or falsehood of what Gao Yu said, and he didn't mention Liu Anshi and Zhang Kegong's performances.
And Sun Sung, the governor of Jeju, who was worried about being reprimanded because of the failure of the bandits, was unexpectedly rewarded. He is a smart man, and immediately made up a book of merits for suppressing bandits, Zhou Ang and Huang An'an were all listed, and the court was rewarded.
