The Ming Dynasty has had the rules of civil and military affairs for hundreds of years, and the generals and officers such as the general staff and generals must be dispatched by the imperial court. Therefore, although Li Meng is a dignified five-rank garrison officer, Yan Zhizhou's attitude towards him is still high, and according to management, the garrison must be respectful and saluting.

The situation in Jiaozhou City seems to have not changed much for Li Meng, those who were in awe of him have become more awe-inspiring at this time, and those who were cold are still cold now. The difference is that the Yanding force under Li Meng has finally obtained a legal identity.

Having said that, these Yanding stationed in the southern part of Laizhou Mansion can appear as officers and soldiers, because this is the garrison scope of the Jiaozhou garrison, and other places in Shandong Province already exist in the name of Yanding.

I don't know if it's negligence on the part of the yamen at all levels or deliberately pretending to be confused, although Li Meng has the real shortage of Jiaozhou garrison, which has the right to soldiers, but the position of Yanzheng inspection in Jiaozhou is still retained, and a person's court gave him the right to lead troops and garrison troops......

After the garrison title was officially down, all the people under Li Meng were very busy, and Ma Gang, who was originally in charge of Yanding in Qingzhou Mansion, was also recalled by Kuaima and asked him to approve the camp near these soldiers together with several old military households and old officers from the Lingshan Guard.

Ning Qiangui and Hou Shan also rotated in succession, called chariots and horses, holding silver, running around the yamen all over Shandong, completing the next formalities, and purchasing various materials for building camps, so as to determine the manpower and import channels for the future supply of grain and straw.

If these things are put on the heads of other new guards, it is estimated that they will have the intention of committing suicide, they need money everywhere, they need manpower everywhere, and they will be embarrassed to death if they are a little nervous in their hands.

But for Li Meng's system, there is a shortage of manpower, and more than 2,000 salt dings have been trained to block the various key roads in Shandong to investigate and seize smuggled salt, and a person is eager to be divided into two uses, there is a shortage of manpower, and there is a shortage of talents, Li Meng is a modern PLA non-commissioned officer, and he has some understanding of specific training and drills, and other projects are very limited, Ma Gang has been a personal soldier, and the rest of the people are all children of peasant families, Ning Qiangui is a dog-headed master at best, and Hou Shan and Luo Xi are at most helpers.

Li Meng's understanding and knowledge of many things is still said by Zhou Juren's big mouth, and when this system does things, he is cautious and nervous, and he is careful every step, for fear of making mistakes.

However, the most important thing to prepare for the establishment of the Jiaozhou battalion is silver taels, and Li Meng's system is not lacking in silver, although because of the salt and silver, the cost of weapons and armor is also a lot, but after all, it is a rich monthly income, and it is still very simple to make up for this opening, anyway, there is money.

When the battalion leaders in Shandong heard that a new garrison had been added to Jiaozhou, they all had the attitude of looking at jokes, thinking that in this poor place, there are still people who want to be soldiers to eat food, and if you build a big camp, you will die of poverty.

It's just that the establishment of this camp is not paid at all, and when your army has no money, you have to have a conflict with the local government, and when the time comes, there will be chaos, and the court will order it to be exterminated or disbanded.

But these people who want to see the joke are all dumbfounded, and these generals who don't know much about the salt trade can't figure out how the Jiaozhou garrison Li Mengna has so much silver that the camp has been built at a very fast speed, and according to the people who inquired about the news, the Jiaozhou camp pays very happily and never defaults.

Everyone is really confused, these days, there is so much silver, what is not good, you have to go to the army to fight, the world is so chaotic, who knows when the soldiers will be pulled up and sent to death.

Li Meng's living state is still the same, for him, it is still selling illicit salt to make money, and he is still practicing salt every day, but now he has a legal name, and now he can practice outside Jiaozhou City, after all, this is a state city, and things are much more convenient than Fengmeng Town.

Every household in Fengmeng Town is benefiting from Li Meng's private salt system, and there are also salt Ding garrisons, and Lingshan Salt Works and Yantian have mobile forces to provide reinforcements at any time, and the place is very stable, so there is no need to worry about anything.

However, for the Yanding guards who inspected the yamen house, or the personal guards of the Jiaozhou garrison yamen, Li Meng's life has changed a little since entering May, and now he stays in the room by himself for a period of time at noon every day.

A few careful discoveries should have started at the end of May, and now the training everywhere is very busy, especially after Gao Mi brought back the dozens of horses, the horseback riding salt Ding has expanded to 100 people, and they train hard outside Jiaozhou City every day under the supervision of Zhang Lin.

Since the style of the firebolt was set, Guo Dong has built it, but the current manpower is mainly on armor and shields, and the speed of the firebolt is also much slower, and Li Meng's strict requirements for the quality of the firebolt have made these blacksmiths extremely strict, and the speed of production has slowed down, and it is only twelve firebolts now.

And having said that, although the gunpowder is built, there is no shortage of lead bullets, but saltpeter gunpowder is really short, and it is enough to build a trial, but it is not enough to train and practice, and there is no way, so there is no way to collect saltpeter gunpowder in grocery stores through salt merchants and salt dealers everywhere.

For this, Ning Qiangui even gave preferential conditions to salt merchants and salt sellers from all walks of life, how much saltpeter gunpowder could be exchanged for concessions in the sale of salt goods, and so on.

The salters are all wondering if Li Meng is busy with this, but there are also some things wrong, for example, Li Meng often sends people to Master Ning's side to get pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and Rosie has been in and out here too many times.

Li Meng sat in the room, and his lunch was quickly wiped out in the way of soldiers, the dishes and chopsticks were all removed, and a blank sheet of paper was spread out on the table.

The door of the house rang, Rosie outside greeted him, and after getting Li Meng's permission, he walked in respectfully, Li Meng looked at Rosie, but it was a little unnatural, coughed dryly, and then hesitated to ask:

"Is there a reply over there?"

Rosie looked solemn, and there was no trace of a smile on his face, and replied in a straight voice:

"Back to the master, Mrs. Su said that the letterhead must have been placed on their young lady's table, but I don't know if I haven't seen it, because there is no response."

Li Meng coughed a few more times, hesitated for a long time before he spoke:

"You come in half an hour, I have a letter for you to bring it to me."

Rosie respectfully agreed, turned around and was about to go out, Li Meng seemed to remember something again, and asked:

"There have been more than a dozen letters so far, are you sure that the woman has handed over these letters, and I will give you another piece of silver, so don't be greedy for ink for the woman."

Hearing Li Meng say this, Rosie immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, pointing to the sky and swearing:

"Master, the conscience of heaven and earth, I don't dare to be greedy for this silver if I lend it to a few small people, and the mother-in-law's son also came from home, or I arranged for me to be a buddy in Shaohailou, and their family is grateful for the kindness of the master, and the mother-in-law helped pass the message."

The pen in Li Meng's hand kept turning, obviously not listening to Rosie's words at all, it was estimated that he was just asking casually just now, and after listening to Rosie, he waved his hand directly and signaled him to go out.

Rosie didn't dare to continue arguing, and immediately got up and closed the door cautiously, this is the sweat on his forehead, thinking to himself how he was obsessed with recruiting this errand at that time, this risk is too great, watching the play and listening to the comments, this kind of matchmaking thing, it is not very costly, and if you are lucky, you can mix a maid as a wife. But this thing has been done so far, and it looks like a dangerous job in the head!

Speaking of which, the young lady of the Yan Zhizhou family is not a beautiful woman who captivates the country and the city, listening to the servants and servants in their house, and some people who have seen their young lady, it may be okay to say that it is beautiful, but if it is said to be stunning, it must not be counted, God knows, how can such a heroic character like Li Erlang look at the right eye.

This job is really hard, and I don't dare to have the slightest laughing and slippery look when I report it, for fear that Li Meng will feel that he is not joking about something, and this woman is not the future housewife, offending people, it is not a joke, even a grassroots character such as Rosie, he also knows that Li Meng is a five-grade guard, and it is also difficult to marry a young lady from the six-grade Zhizhou family.

After giving gifts a few times, he was rejected by the other party, and it was also disgraced to find Zhou Juren to propose marriage, seeing that the methods were exhausted, Rosie found a way, and actually met a servant woman in Yan Zhizhou's mansion, it is not difficult for these subordinates to buy it, especially Rosie helped this Su woman a few times, and gave some money, saying that even if she was driven out by Yan Zhizhou after the incident, there was also Li Meng's side to contain her, which is to move this mother-in-law to help. Rosie is one of Li Meng's housekeepers, and he helps with many personal matters.

After having this opportunity, Rosie thought that he had seized a great opportunity to tie up with Li Meng, and told Li Mengyi that Li Meng was really quite surprised, although he thought that this good thing had come to this point, it was such a situation that was not embarrassing or embarrassing.
