Chapter 120: The Barracks Begins to Be Established

The cost of eating for the three hundred people outside is not small, as long as they can withstand it for a few days, they may have to retreat, and when the time comes, they will spend money and accommodating, and maybe the matter will be over.

Who would have thought that such a devastating one would come in, and he was not even mentally prepared to beg for mercy, so he was carried to the front yard, and there was only panic and fear in his heart, where he desperately wanted to beg for mercy with money.

"For the sake of Lao Jun Tianzun, please spare the poor road, and the poor road will pray for the official every day in the future!"

When people respected ghosts and gods, hearing these begging words of the old Tao, those Haoqiang children who had never dared to speak all helped to intercede, saying that they had taken the manor anyway, and the crime of selling illicit salt was also punished.

Zhao Neng is also a little embarrassed, although his temper is stable, but there is also a situation where the roots of his ears are too soft, he is certainly very disgusted with these three Qingguan masters, but so many people are talking nonsense, and they are all Haoqiang children who have no conflict, and they may have to deal with each other in the future, and they must always give face.

Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard a long laugh from the gate of the courtyard, and someone said loudly:

"Such a thing that doesn't know whether it is dead or alive, if it is cut, it will be cut, listen to what these people are noisy!"

This was said very politely, hearing this voice coming from behind him, these powerful children were furious, and they turned back one after another, but saw more than a dozen horsemen stepping across the suspension bridge and going straight into the house, and the clothes on their bodies looked the same as those of Yanding, and this anger was suddenly held in their stomachs.

Suddenly heard Zhao Neng and Yan Ding in the courtyard shouting with joy:

"Greetings to Master Li!"

As soon as they heard this, everyone understood that this was the leader of Yanding, the new Jiaozhou battalion garrison Li Meng. Li Shoubei's deeds are not clear to everyone, Li Erlang has heard a lot of rumors back then, many of them are related to blood and human life, and seeing the performance of the Yanding team today is tantamount to amplifying the impression of Li Meng.

Everyone looked at Li Meng, who was riding on a horse and was tall, and they were in awe in their hearts, in fact, the ethereal chivalrous thing, everyone didn't take it seriously in their hearts, but today's tiger and wolf division. It is said that Li Meng had more than 2,000 men. That's a real scary.

After Zhao Neng said hello to everyone in general, he watched Li Meng ride to him, got off the horse with a smile, couldn't help the joy in his heart, walked a few steps quickly, stepped forward and saluted:

"When did Master Li come back, if only I had known that the brothers should go to greet him."

Don't look at Zhao Neng's age than Li Meng, you can see Li Meng coming back. It's really like having a backbone in his heart, but he also said immediately:

"I think the matter is urgent this time, so I pull the brothers out, and I hope that the adults will not be surprised."

Li Meng had a smile on his face, and he didn't mean anything to blame, but said:

"You handled this matter very correctly, if you don't come, how can these people know that the sky is high and the earth is thick."

This sentence is very harsh. It seems that it is not the Sanqing Guan master and minions who are kneeling on the ground, but those Haoqiang children who follow the wind and look at the excitement, but although the words are ugly, who dares to refute it.

After saying that, Li Meng waved his hand downward. Yan Ding, who was standing beside the Sanqing Guan Guan Lord and his minions, suddenly pressed the people to the ground, ignoring their pleas for mercy, and raised his sword in his hand. Several grades immediately rolled down into the courtyard, and blood gushed out, and the courtyard was blood-red.

The scene was instantly quiet. Li Meng patted Zhao Neng's shoulder. Said with a low laugh:

"No, no example, no orders from me. Not a single soldier below can be mobilized unless I have a similar order in advance! ”

Zhao Neng's heart froze, and he hurriedly agreed, and suddenly heard the sound of "plop" and "plop", and looked left and right, but the children of the local tyrants and squires behind him were obviously weak, and they were all kneeling there with pale faces, and their eyes were full of real awe this time.

No one was busy with this, some went to the little main hall to carry the idols, to dig up gold and silver, and some continued to drive the captives together.

How bad the bully is to suck the bones and squeeze the marrow, Li Meng can see one or two from those slaves who knelt on the side, after the Taoist priest and minions were beheaded, although there were crying and crying among those women, most of them had happy expressions, and even a few ran to the slaves kneeling on the side, needless to say, this is the so-called bullying of men and women.

In fact, as soon as he returned to Jiaozhou City, he knew about it, not that he was worried that Zhao Neng would personally lead the troops to do something that should not be done, but that he was worried, after all, besieging other people's houses, this is the first time that the enemy has defended my attack.

Li Meng was worried that something would go wrong, this was the reason why he couldn't take a break and lead people to support, who would have thought that after he came, the matter had been settled, and it was very smooth, and when he came over, he had already started to clean up the battlefield, but what made him a little dissatisfied was that Zhao Neng was too polite to these landlords and squires.

After a quiet while, Li Meng raised his voice and said:

"Yanzheng is the country's **, anyone sells privately in my Li Mengdi's jurisdiction, this Taoist priest who violates the national law is the end, everyone is a big family in the local area, and there are many relatives and friends, please go back and spread the rules of Li, so as not to have today's situation!"

You are Jiaozhou, Laizhou Mansion, the largest salt lord in Shandong Province, although some people are slandered there, but looking at those headless bloody corpses, these people still knock their heads down one by one, claiming to know.

Some of the salters went to pack up the spoils, and some people went to the local magistrate's yamen with the title deed documents and the like to go through the formalities, Zhao Neng and Li Meng were idle here, and after Li Meng said that, there was also some embarrassment between the two of them, but Zhao Neng said:

"Did Master Li gain anything from going to Henan this time?"

As soon as he said this, Li Meng sighed and said:

"If everything goes well, I can get an extra 6,000 taels or 8,000 taels of net income per month, which is not as much as I expected, and it will bring back a trouble......"

This battle of Sanqingguan can only be said to be Li Mengjun's unilateral offensive and defensive drills, but the effect is very good, after Li Meng's private salt system was established, it gave a lot of financial opportunities, and it also cut off many people's financial routes, but Li Meng's power is great, and no one dares to act rashly.

The ranks of the salt rods are very neat, and unlike those who used to run rampant in the villages, those ruffians have many loopholes to exploit, but these salt poles are difficult to buy.

After the original salt team was changed to the Jiaozhou battalion, it changed from the original similar private armed forces to the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and then stationed everywhere to investigate and seize smuggled salt, which is inevitably a bit unjustifiable. Many people with lively eyes want to take action, after this operation to exterminate Sanqingguan, the news began to spread among the local powerful landlords, not to mention the combat effectiveness and overwhelming superiority of the salt dings, and the bloody heads also frightened many people.

The slightly restless private salt system has become quiet again, but the things that have excited those young people in Shandong who are still well-off but restless have come again, and the inspection department of the salt administration in Jiaozhou has begun to recruit salt in Shandong Province again, and the number of soldiers reported by the Jiaozhou battalion is 2,500 people.

Originally, the salt dings stationed everywhere had to be withdrawn, but the salt dings in other places needed to be stationed and rotated, and it was not possible to have fewer people, so they began to recruit people.

Li Meng currently has almost 15,000 taels of input per month, spending nearly 7,000 taels of silver on Yanding, and the rest of the silver money is used for production, business, and reserves. Everyone knows that the strength of the more people is definitely greater, but the problem is that if the training equipment is not kept up with the large number of people, the salary and training equipment cannot be trained at all, and the large number of soldiers is just a group of homeless bandits who have gathered to eat food.

The real gain is that I know that Wenru Commercial Bank sells to Henan's private salt market, not that Li Meng wants to rob the other party's business, but that he has always been afraid that the output of the salt field and salt field will be too large, which will saturate the market and lower the price.

This time, I saw that the market is far from saturated, and it doesn't matter if you increase production and sales on your side, if the output increases, the income will increase, and you will naturally be able to recruit new salt ding.

Over the years, the stationing of salt ding in various places has already had a very good benchmarking role, and it is the goal that young people yearn for.

When he returned to Jiaozhou City, it was already close to October, and the first thing Li Meng did when he went home was to lock himself in the room, and he passed a letter to Yan Ruoran, Miss Yan Zhizhou, through someone, the content of which was nothing more than to talk about what he had seen and heard on this trip to Henan, of course, Li Meng did not mention meeting that strange girl.

Six hundred quintals of green salt were sold for more than 6,000 taels of silver in Jining Prefecture, which can be regarded as a small fortune.

Leaving for two months, it is almost the construction of the Jiaozhou camp in Jiaozhou City, which is about five miles away from Jiaozhou City, at this time it is the agricultural slack season, and the farmers are willing to take advantage of this time to do some work to supplement the family, Li Meng's system has a great advantage of doing things, that is, it is never in arrears, cash settlement, and it has a very good reputation among the people, and everyone is willing to come over to earn this money, so they are very enthusiastic when they are called to work.
