Chapter 1 The people work and feed them

Zhang Xiaobao listened carefully, Li Xun told Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan everything he knew, and Zhang Xiaobao and the two of them knew that there were not so many redundant officials in Xiazhou like this, so it was not impossible to have such a position.

Luzhou didn't even record the matter to join the army, Zhang Zhong can be said to be a combination of the military and the government, as for how many soldiers, it's hard to say, if all the people are soldiers, there should be people from four counties, about 7,000, if it is recruited according to the original method...... This one......

"Thanks to the fact that we have trained sixty-five people ourselves, otherwise how much food would we have to feed before we can feed our bodies and use them when we are going to be recruited here?" Wang Juan said with palpitations.

Zhang Xiaobao continued to look and found that there were few officials who did not follow, and there were patches on their clothes one by one, and even the clothes of a county order were the same.

There was also a man wearing the same color as his father standing next to his father, and the crimson clothes told others that this was a fourth-grade official, but the official uniform on that person seemed to be between dark red and light red, which dyeing workshop dyed it? Awesome.

With all the officials, the onlookers finally knew that the person who came was not a robber, it was a new official, the people were not interested in who came, they were curious about the eighteen big ships, under the introduction of the four county orders and the assassin who could already go back, the people knew that this new assassin was surnamed Zhang, a very young man.

The boat was also brought by him, and if he wanted to let himself and others help build a temporary wharf, then start working, such a big official can't help but do it.

More than 1,000 people who were physically strong compared to others began to get busy, looking for tools and cutting trees, and the people of one county here, and others in other places did not know about it.

The older people sat on the side to command, and the little babies were curious, some were playing on the beach, some jumped into the water and swam a distance towards the place where the boat was, and were shouted by the family members on the shore, and they didn't go back while stepping on the water, they just stopped there and watched.

Zhang Xiaobao sat on the boat, saw the people working, and then looked at the sky, and then it was noon for a while, according to the rules of the Zhang family, when others worked, they had to prepare meals, and the villagers should prepare everything they did, not to mention that these people worked in vain.

"Huzi, take your people to change into water, jump down for me, and the cook on the boat and some ingredients will also be sent to the shore, and you are responsible for protecting."

Zhang Xiaobao commanded Huzi who was standing behind him, raising soldiers for a thousand days, using soldiers for a while, training for so long, eating and drinking and massage, it's time to pull it out and slip it out.

"Yes!" Huzi agreed, turned around and shouted to the other fifty-five people: "All of them, change your clothes, and go into the water to guard." ”

Everyone responded in unison, turned around on the spot, raised their arms to their chests, and went to change their clothes with neat steps.

After a while, fifty-six men came running back, dressed in water cushions made of fish skin, with a small bag made of the same fish skin close to their waists, and holding in their hands a very thin steel cone two feet long, with blades on both sides.

Standing on the side of the ship one after another, Huzi took a deep breath and shouted, "Jump!" ”

Fifty-six people jumped down from the boat nearly four feet high at the same time, turned over in the air, put their heads under their feet, put their hands together to protect their heads, and made a plopping sound when they entered the water, and their bodies turned slightly in the water, and the part of their chests was completely exposed.

Li Xun had never seen these people training, when he saw it, it was a queue, looking at the fifty-six people who had formed a queue in the water, staring at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan in surprise and asking, "How did you train?" Don't tell me I can get out of this by walking in the queue. ”

"Reasonable diet, scientific arrangement of training programs, coupled with the instructor's patient teaching, and their awareness, this is the training." Wang Juan snorted nonsense at Li Xun.

Li Xun is no longer surprised, he can often hear all kinds of strange words, and said to the two people: "Then help me train in the future, just follow what you say, the queue will not be used, and I will usually train myself." ”

The three of them chatted easily, but the people on the shore were not relaxed at this time, including Zhang Zhong, everyone was surprised, who was on the boat? People with farsightedness saw that the person jumping from the boat was wrapped in something light black from head to toe, with only the eyes and mouth exposed.

"Zhang Tingshi, these people are also brought by you?" Huo Qisheng, the county magistrate of Huaqing County, asked in a low voice.

Zhang Zhong knew that these were the sixty-five people, and he had seen it on the side when he was doing the water refuge, but he didn't expect that his son and daughter-in-law would be so powerful after they were trained to play like they wanted to play.

After hearing someone ask, he nodded, "Well, I brought it, the nursing home at home, used to protect Xiao Miao'er, I don't know what to do when I jumped down, it's weird." ”

After Zhang Zhong finished speaking, he didn't even believe it, so he used such a person to protect Xiao Miao'er? But that's the way it is, Team Zero of the Seedling Guard.

Huo Qisheng naturally didn't say anything to refute, and nodded with a smile, "I see, it seems that the adults should be good at farming, and those who look at this seedling will know." ”

"It's okay, when I harvested last autumn, there was a little less in the field, all of them were rice, only more than three stones, and the field was okay, and I could harvest five stones, but I don't know what would happen if I planted it here." Zhang Zhong told the truth again this time.

It's a pity that Huo Qisheng doesn't believe it at all, what rice seeds? What kind of field can produce five stones of rice per acre? Thinking like this in his heart, he still echoed: "The adult's family is really extraordinary, and the people of this state will have a good life in the future." ”

The surrounding officials were also listening, and they didn't believe it, thinking that the new assassin likes to talk big, and they were a little disapproving, ready to continue to do their own things like before.

The people also saw the person who jumped down, jumping from such a high place or with his head down, this ability is not small, the light black clothes he wore all over his body, he looked a little tired in the water, if he waited until night, he didn't want anyone to find them.

The people who had their own children in the water hurriedly forgot to say hello, for fear that those people would be bad for the children.

Zhang Xiaobao stood on the deck, looked at the sixty-five people, and said to Wang Juan: "The color of this water is a little dark, go back and make a set of dark blue, otherwise it will be a little conspicuous during the day." ”

Wang Juan also found out, nodded, and wanted to get them something to summon their qi, a small air bag and a stone, otherwise they wouldn't be able to sink.

Li Xun listened to it next to him, and felt that the matter that the two of them said did not seem to be simple: "What do you want to do in your family?" Specially train such a group of people, on land is to protect your family, what about in the water? ”

"Nursery." Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan said at the same time.

"Okay, then you can protect it, and I'll see what seedlings grow in the water." Li Xun didn't believe in protecting the seedlings when he was killed, but there wasn't much to do here, what was the purpose of training the water army? To attack others? By these fifty-six people?

The three of them casually found a topic and started chatting again, and the cook on the boat had already begun to smooth things down, and there were a dozen or so small boats below.

After a while, the cooking tools and the cook first went to the boat, estimated the people on the shore, about fifteen or six hundred, and gestured to the people on the boat, and began to continue to put all kinds of ingredients down, fifteen or six hundred, but not the same number of ingredients, six hundred more people, and one thousand more staple food.

In addition to these ingredients, there are ten jars of pickles, and the leading chef understands that people here usually can't eat anything good, and once they encounter it, they will definitely eat hard, and it is definitely not enough to prepare according to the usual, and these may not be left, but they can't do too much.

This ingredient is calculated according to the amount of food of adults, and the amount of an adult is already a lot for a little baby, and it is easy to get out of trouble if you eat more.

The tools were transported first, and the fifty-six people swam in the water for protection, and then continued to transport the ingredients back and forth, and the people in the place where the tools were put all retreated far away, and watched in a big circle, no one dared to approach, and the weapons held by the fifty-six people were a little scary.

Zhang Zhong was not in a hurry here, he watched slowly, and asked the people around him from time to time how the harvest was here, what the people usually did when they went to the yamen, and he didn't expect these people to tell the truth, just to find something to say.

"Zhang Tingshi, I don't know what the people on your boat are doing with these things? Isn't there a place to cook on board? Zhang Yi, the county magistrate of Wulei County, looked at the busy people, avoided Zhang Zhong asking him about the security in the county, and instead asked about cooking.

Zhang Zhong was accustomed to other people's work and was in charge of food at home, so he remembered that the people here were not clear, and replied: "There is not such a big place to cook these people's meals on the ship, and there are a lot of people on the ship, do it on both sides at the same time, everyone will eat after a while, rest assured, you will never feel uncomfortable eating, and you will do it according to the method here." ”

"Your Excellency said you want to cook for everyone here? My lord, I should invite you to eat in a better place and give you a pick-up, how can this be done? When the people had finished their work, they went home and ate. A servant said boldly beside him.

Zhang Zhong turned his head to look at the servant, and smiled, "Don't bother you, cook food for the people who work, my family has always been like this, you can't let people do things in vain, and when you are free, I invite you to go to a better restaurant to eat, you don't need to save money, and you still have a little savings at home." ”

Because they are too far away, these people really don't know about Zhang Zhong's family, and the news hasn't come yet, but after looking at the fleet, I also believe a little in my heart, but I can't figure it out, how could such a net worth come to Luzhou to be an official? Is it to offend someone?

As he spoke, all the ingredients were transported to the place, and more than a dozen cooks were used to making big pots of rice, and they began to get busy, the curious people were still curious, and the people who worked did not stop, and the first Anmin plan of Zhang Zhong's arrival also began to be implemented.
