Shoufu Wen Tiren, this "benevolence" may not have any ability, this "Wen" is well-known in the court, and it will not offend people easily, and this twist and turn will soon go to the side of the celebrant and the imperial horse supervisor.

The big eunuchs took a look, isn't this Lao Liu's nephew, the son of such a good person, but he has to help and help, and ask up and down, it turned out that some time ago, Li Meng taught Liu Zeqing a lesson, which made the other party suffer. The above immediately made a decision, and it was rare to act vigorously and resolutely once - send it back and hand it over to the Shandong local government to dispose of it by itself.

It didn't take too much time to pass back and forth, but when this document returned to the governor of Shandong, a group of people were in a dilemma, thinking, why not delay for a few days halfway, but let the Shandong Yamen go to find trouble with these two military leaders in their own territory, and they were also unwilling, not to mention that these two people were famous thorns.

It's better to press it down first, wait until the limelight passes, and the anger of both sides has subsided, and then wait until March, this document was transferred to Li Meng's hands, and at the same time, it seems that it is redundant to add a sentence "Please ask General Li to picket by himself".

With this phrase "self-picketing", the whole document becomes like a joke.

If it was in the past, Li Meng would only endure it in a muffled voice, or say that he would privately think about a way to find a way to get back to the field, but at this time, he found the master and wrote a sprinkling recital, which was also sent to the capital by urgent means, saying that the official was guarding Laizhou Mansion, and Dongchang Mansion was separated from Qingzhou by this place, how could he cross the border.

And Liu Zongbing's soldiers have always been known as strong, how can more than 4,000 soldiers and horses under his command be killed and wounded in more than ten days, such a combat force, if the Henan thieves come from Luxi, wouldn't it be a long drive straight in, and at the end it was also said that if Liu Zongbing consciously garrisoned ineffectively, although there were few soldiers in the Jiaozhou battalion, he was willing to take into account the righteousness of his comrades and assist in the town.

Although the letter of the general and the general should have passed through Emperor Chongzhen, the emperor had a lot of opportunities and naturally didn't care about such "trivial matters", and soon, according to the process of the day, it was quickly sent to Liu Zeqing's hands.

This time it was not a picket on its own, but the military department was heavily reproached above, and the four thousand soldiers and horses were killed and wounded, Liu Zeqing, why didn't you report it before, how is this how to govern the army.

In the confrontation above the court, Liu Zeqing didn't expect that he was deflated at all, looking at the reprimand of the military department was very severe, although he was angry in his heart, he still hurriedly went everywhere to ask people to spend money and dredge up the relationship.

In this conflict, Li Meng won a small victory, but he didn't take this matter to heart, in Li Meng's opinion, it was really insignificant.

If you want to say that the author of this twist and turn, but it was written by Zhou Juren, since Li Meng mentioned the general, there are still some Zhou Yang's attitude towards Li Meng, and the position of the general has become a little hot, but it is all guarded by one side, and Shandong is just three generals and two general soldiers.

Like this, there is only Li Meng who guards a government alone, which is also the authority of a general soldier, and if he can be a staff member for such a person, he may be the county prefect on the herdsmen's side in the future, and the two sides have already made friends, and have said many rebellious topics, and the relationship is also closer.

Although Li Meng said that his current official position is to jump to the position of a general, but the background of a smuggler and the hat of a eunuch are all pressed on his body, and literati are afraid to avoid it, but some things outside of military affairs do need a relatively knowledgeable literati to operate, and the appearance of Zhou Juren is just in time.

Right now, on the list of salaries and silver counted by Master Ning and Luo Xi every month, Zhou Yang has been officially listed among them, the names are "Counselor" and "Senator", Li Meng was very surprised after seeing this name, I really don't know how to come up with these.

It has been more than two months since Rosie came to ask for instructions to welcome the Spring Festival, and it is about to enter March, so Li Meng's side can be regarded as idle.

The so-called leisure means that you can have more time to handle government affairs in the house, and you don't have to go out to be busy, that Dungrass is the head of the school, and he smiles, this military salary is high, and his status is also noble, and thousands of people under him are studying seriously with him, not to mention that this kind of day is down-and-out in Nanjing, even when he is a mercenary in Spain, he may not have such a happy time.

However, this person's character is indeed very ordinary, for example, Luo Zhuo has reported to Li Mengyu a few times in private, this Dunglas ransomed a woman in the Qinglou in Jiaozhou, kept her at home, and often went to the gambling house opened by Zhang Butcher to play money and other bad deeds, fortunately, the professor is still attentive.

Li Meng looked for this foreigner to see his firecracker, and after Deng Yangren looked at the range and power, he said that it was about the same as the power of the Spanish heavy smoothbore gun, as for the details of the structure and the firing posture and other things, he was very honest to say that he had used the firecracker, but he was not very familiar with it, firstly, he did not use it much, and secondly, he rarely paid attention to these things when he used it.

After knowing that the power of the heavy smoothbore gun was about the same, Li Meng's side was also relieved, and China's firearms went a dead end in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

On the side of Father Federer, the illness caused by his weakness recovered quickly after the living conditions improved, but the priest was unusually quiet, and only prayed in his courtyard every day, and this restrained and self-controlled behavior made the people who inspected the house quite favorable.

Su Anqi is six years old this year, at this age Li Meng finally knew three months after bringing the child back, although Master Ning is greedy, he likes Su Anqi very much, and every day he sees that as long as Xiao Anqi finishes the morning class and prays, he must have sent someone to bring it over.

When dealing with official business, he taught children the knowledge of writing by the way, and under his recommendation, Su Anqi, as Li Meng's scholar, entered Li Meng's study.

Li Meng has always sorted it out by himself, because he is not ready to let the maid clean up in the room, and the young people in the Jiaozhou battalion system are busy with military affairs, and there is such a child, not only will there be leaks in the heart, but also will be cultivated, and he may be a confidential talent in the future.

Li Meng rarely had time to sit in the study, and the shop in Jining sent a letterhead, saying that in mid-February, the amount of green salt from Henan had almost tripled, and this time the goods requested by the other party were mainly medicinal materials, and tried to ask for credit.

Although the incense salt shop in Jining tried its best to meet the other party's requirements according to Li Meng's request, a large number of medicinal materials were purchased, and the local officials in Jining, as well as the Jinyi guards who were staring at the dock, would definitely notice something, and it took a lot of effort to meet one-third of the other party's consumption.

The green salt seller must have been a little dissatisfied, but he still got the medicinal materials and left Jining quickly, and the salt shop was a little apprehensive, so he wrote to ask.

Li Meng's answer is very simple: it doesn't matter, if this matter can be sold, it doesn't matter if it can't be sold, in fact, what has made him feel most interested recently is the letterhead sent by the Zheng family in Nanjing, which says that saltpeter and other items, if Li Meng needs them, they will buy them in large quantities from Luzon and Westerners, and they can use sea salt to discount them when the time comes.

This transaction is certainly profitable for both parties, but after the Zheng family has seen and heard in Nanjing, they have always wanted to have a good relationship with Li Meng, and after knowing Li Meng's needs, they have been helping to handle it with their hearts.

With the strength of the Zheng family to dominate the sea, it is really easy to do this, as for this saltpeter is the material for making gunpowder, Li Meng wants these gunpowders and is not used to make firecrackers, what does a general who guards Laizhou Mansion want to do with such a large number of firearms, no one asks at all.

The subordinates outside reported, and after Guo Dong and his wife, the blacksmith leader of Fengmeng Town, asked to see them, and Li Meng agreed, they suddenly felt a little strange, Guo Dong came to ask for a meeting, why did he still bring his wife.

Speaking of which, Guo Dong's status in Liaodong artisan households is very high, and his mother-in-law is also doing some housework in the mansion of Li Meng, the female dependents of those artisan households and soldiers.

But after all, there is a difference between men and women, these women are generally serving Mu Yunyao and Zhao Neng's mother, or doing laundry and cooking, Li Meng tries to avoid meeting them, after all, to avoid suspicion.

After Guo Dong and his wife came in, they all kowtowed respectfully, and they were pulled back from the verge of starvation, and now although one of the husband and wife is still a craftsman, and the other is a servant, Guo Dong also has hundreds of craftsmen, and thousands of taels of silver are handed over every month, even if it is Ma Gang, Zhao Neng sees it and politely calls "Master Guo", and the people below are generally called "Uncle Guo", and his wife's status is similar to that of Rosie, who manages the internal affairs and logistics of the Jiaozhou camp system. The couple worked, but their children also had someone to serve them.

Think about the escape from Liaodong all the way to Dengzhou a few years ago, and then fled from Dengzhou to the edge of Jiaozhou City, almost completely desperate on the Jiaozhou side, but was taken in by Li Meng, who was still an ordinary person. Guo Dong's family is naturally desperate for Li Meng.

Guo Dong stood up and said respectfully:

"Yesterday, according to the instructions of the adults, I did an experiment with the fire rope and the fire medium, if the fire medium is covered with a plug in the bamboo pipe, it can be burned by opening it and blowing a few breaths, if the lid is open, it is indeed not as long as the fire rope burning."

Every time he saw himself talking about weapons, Li Meng listened attentively, Guo Dong felt that he had not lived in vain in his life, in Liaodong in the past, had he ever seen a Qian always so polite to himself?
