Busy is busy, Mu Yunyao still has the idea of competing with Yan Ruoran in her heart, one day in April, Yan Ruoran led a few servants to send them some fresh fruits to this house, and chatted a few words by the way, and when everyone else retreated, Mu Yunyao took a few comprehensive proclamations, saying that he was asking Yan Ruoran's opinion.

Yan Ruoran glanced at it a few times, smiled and said that he had been recuperating in the inner house for the past few years, and he didn't know much about the outside affairs, and now he had no time to pay attention to the house affairs. Mu Yunyao had a half-joking attitude, and everyone didn't take it seriously after laughing.

However, before leaving, Yan Ruoran said some comments to Mu Yunyao's three daughters in a soft voice, saying that the house was chaotic and it was not convenient to do things, so it was better to divide them into details according to time and make markings, so it was convenient to find them, and Mu Yunyao was stunned.

On the third day, Guo Dong's wife commanded her subordinates to move a few cabinets like medicine cabinets in a pharmacy to the house where Mu Yunyao and the others worked. As a result, Mu Yunyao and the others followed Yan Ruoran's method to classify the documents according to time and place, mark the details, and divide them in the cabinet.

After sorting it out, the work of excerpts, summary and analysis suddenly became much more efficient, and Mu Yunyao was very respectful, and then she remembered that Yan Ruoran was Miss Zhizhou, who was a family member of a front-line official, and she was much more proficient in this kind of literature than them.

In fact, there is no change in the order of the inner house, but the occurrence of various things has determined the order of Yan Ruoran, Mu Yunyao, Gu Hengbo, and Liu Ru.

And unconsciously, a completely female secretary team was formed in Li Meng's inner house, led by Mu Yunyao, Gu Hengbo, Liu Ru is auxiliary, and the maid who knew words was the backbone of the organization, and Yan Ruoran's figure was also looming in it.

Although it is just to sort out information, summarize data, and analyze the current situation, compared with Zhou Yang and Ning Qiangui, who are alone and lonely, this side is more systematic, and there is a faint meaning of the Jiaozhou Camp Civil Affairs Center, of course, this is also quite a helpless move, in Li Meng's hands, the highest level of education is really these girls, and they are completely from his house, and they are extremely relieved to use.

The whole territory of Dengzhou Mansion, the Yimeng Mountains of Qingzhou Mansion, and the waterways around Yanzhou Mansion are all places where there are many bandits and horses.

But now that Li Meng's Jiaozhou battalion is legally stationed in these places, it is already his own territory, so it cannot be tolerated.

Li Meng issued a proclamation in succession, saying that he ordered the bandits to disband their soldiers and horses within one month, and sent people to report to the garrison offices in various places, and if there were those who were willing to join the army, the Jiaozhou battalion would select and admit them in strict accordance with the regulations.

As soon as this proclamation was issued, except for the squires and landlords who knew that the bottom of the Jiaozhou camp was very powerful, those ordinary people, scholars and even local officials were waiting to see Li Meng's jokes, thinking that the court would recruit An, and now they all had to speak in a good voice and make all kinds of conditions, but they didn't see Zhang Xianzhong being recruited and surrendered, they were all entrenched in Gucheng, and they didn't listen to the orders of the court at all, and the court had to allocate money and grain land.

You simply issued a proclamation here, saying that you will come and surrender regularly, and there are two ways out, either Tuntian Grange, or join the army as a soldier, those bandits and robbers are all lawless, who will listen to your arrangement.

Who would have thought that this proclamation had only been issued for seven days, and what had happened made these people who were waiting to see the joke dumbfounded, many famous cottages that had been entrenched for many years, rampant in a certain place, and the common people were terrified, as well as the giant thieves who sat on the water to collect money, all hid on the islands in the depths of the Weishan Lake, not afraid of the government's investigation, and have always been extremely arrogant characters.

These lawless murderers came out of their hiding places one after another and hurried to the place designated by the Jiaozhou battalion proclamation, for fear of a slight delay.

Many bandit leaders generally moved to Jining Prefecture and Jiaozhou to live if they had some accumulated money, and their subordinates were arranged to settle in the Grange in Tuntian, and of course, some suitable for military soldiers and spies were all transferred by Li Meng's subordinate departments.

After so many years, the bandits in Qingzhou Mansion and Dengzhou Mansion are trembling, Li Meng's Jiaozhou battalion is different from ordinary officers and soldiers, even if there is no order to suppress bandits from Shangfeng, the Jiaozhou battalion will take the initiative to come to the door to practice, and many villages have been bulldozed for this reason.

At first, everyone didn't know the reason, and they all paid bribes but were refused, and those acquaintances who had been bandits in the past and now served in the Jiaozhou battalion inquired, only to know that this has a name in the Jiaozhou battalion, called to train in battle.

The combat effectiveness of the bandits is much worse than that of the Jiaozhou battalion, and under this kind of low-intensity battle, the purpose of the training team is achieved, and it is indeed a very good method for the Jiaozhou battalion, which has many recruits and not many fighters.

The rest of these are living carefully, sharing profits in the business of illegal salt sales, and among those relatively large-scale village teams, the young and strong backbones have been absorbed by the favorable conditions of the Jiaozhou battalion, and a lot of nails have been buried around them, the water villages in the Yimeng Mountains and Weishan Lake area, there were once several villages with their own dangerous terrain, pondering how good it would be to live without Wang Fa in a few years, and not to accept Li Meng's control.

But within two or three days, there was news and rumors, saying that the village was on fire, and the second or third boss killed all the leaders in front of them, and led his subordinates to either scatter or go to the Jiaozhou camp, and it turned out that the village had already been infiltrated by the illegal salt trade of the Jiaozhou camp.

There are such examples in front, everyone who thinks they are tough feels cold, who knows if there are spies and spies infiltrated by the Jiaozhou battalion.

That Liu Zeqing has dominated Yanzhou for so many years, and he thinks that he is operating like an iron bucket, but isn't the city gate of Caozhou also opened? Why do we have hundreds of thousands of people and horses, why bother to charge that big head, those who have money go to Jining Prefecture and Jiaozhou to be a rich man, and those who have no money lead their hands to Tuntian Grange to farm, which can be regarded as having a good citizen status.

There are also some bandit leaders who are very supportive of Jiaozhou's moves, gathering people in the mountains, making a fortune on the one hand, and settling down with their subordinates, if they want to do it if they have enough, then the first person to kill is the minions under them, and now there is this opportunity, which can be regarded as an explanation and placement for his subordinates, and they are finally happy.

Not to mention those who are ambitious, feel that they have some ability, and want to do a career, this proclamation is even more favorable.

In June of the eleventh year of Chongzhen, the four prefectures of Yan, Qing, Deng, and Lai were suddenly calm, and if it were not for the year of the catastrophe, it would almost make people think that it was a peaceful and prosperous era. Of course, in the year of the catastrophe, it is normal for the people to be in turmoil, and it is strange that the border of Shandong is so peaceful and safe.

A literati specifically mentioned this point in their notes: "The county is uneasy, there is no one on the streets of the city in the afternoon, and the fear of bandits and thieves hurts people, and until June, the place is quiet, and the house is not closed at night, and everyone is frightened and uneasy, and there is a suspicion that there is a god." ”

This rectification did not alarm anything in the locality, but there seemed to be a gust of wind blowing on the green forests and rivers and lakes, and there were also people who stayed in the deep mountains and old forests and were reluctant to come out, but even if they were to the locality, they would not have any impact on the locality, and it would not matter if it was a big deal.

There are several stockades in Dengzhou composed of stragglers who were in turmoil, and they are more capable of fighting and have combat power, and they do not listen to orders, and they are easily bulldozed by the soldiers and horses led by Zhao Neng, and there are no major conflicts left.

After Li Meng obtained the right to guard the four prefectures, he quickly eliminated all kinds of uneasy factors and gave himself a stable rear. In addition to the substantial benefits, this also made the local powerful landlords and clans even more desperate to cling to and follow Li Meng's thoughts.

At the end of June, Sun Hedou, who had not been in touch for several days, sent a letter to Li Meng, saying that he wanted him to visit the artisan shop near Fengmeng Town recently.

After the three sons of the Sun family were taken captive to Jiaozhou, Sun Hedou and Li Meng had several long talks, and soon expressed their determination to be loyal, Sun Hedou's theoretical knowledge of firearms was what Li Meng needed the most.

As for Sun Hejing, Sun Heding, the two pure scholars, have been confined in the courtyard for so long, but they are also a lot calmer, after reading every day, the two opened a private school in the courtyard, one is a woman, the other is a man, and the women's school naturally draws a curtain to attend classes.

The reason why there is this women's school is because Mu Yunyao feels that the maids of Gu and Liu are quite useful, and they also want to find some intimate people to help, and most of the servants who serve in this mansion are family members of the Jiaozhou camp system, and they are also willing to have their children literate and read, plus some orphans of dead officers and soldiers, this is the composition of private school students.

In addition, Su Anqi only came to attend classes occasionally, he mainly studied with Ning Qiangui and Zhou Yang, and Priest Federer was also the teacher of this private school, teaching some natural sciences.

Unconsciously, half of Chongzhen's eleven years have passed......
