The rat is definitely the most carefree person in Yangjiatun now.

There was no other reason, Zhang Zhun did not hesitate to give him hundreds of taels of broken silver, so that he could expand the intelligence network and cover the entire Fushan City. The rat has a talent for doing intelligence, and after receiving a large amount of financial help, he is naturally like a tiger. Under the hands of the mouse, more than a dozen intelligence backbones were gathered, and there were rat people in each of the Fushan Institutes, and the information was transmitted back and forth very quickly.

Of course, Zhang Zhun also gave the rat some guidance, and systematically put the intelligence work into operation. In general, the movements in Fushan City may not be very clear to the rats. However, as long as someone comes out of Fushan City, the rat will know immediately. The monkey knows, which is basically equivalent to Zhang Zhun knowing. Therefore, Wang Shixin and his minions, if they want to go out of the city to find trouble with Yangjiatun, they must first pass the rat level.

Another task of the rat is to collect information about the salt owl. Intelligence shows that on the road from Fushan to Jimo County, the salt owl is still very active. The refined salt of Yangjiatun has not been disturbed for the time being, but it does not mean that it will not be disturbed in the future. Zhang Zhun meant that at the right time, he would take the initiative to attack these salt barons and expel them all.

The price of two taels of silver per load of private salt also made all the tuns of Fushan Institute full of yearning for Yangjiatun. Especially the young people in various tuns, they want to know what happened to Yangjiatun. Some people quietly came to Yangjiatun to inquire about the news, but as a result, they all suffered a tactful refusal and refused to allow them to enter Yangjiatun. Even some people who had dealings with Yangjiatun before were blocked from Yangjiatun at this time.

"This is our captain's order."

"Who is our captain?"

"Our captain's name is Zhang Yulin."

"You don't know the name of our captain? It shows that it is too lonely and unheard. ”

……

The members of the guard who stood guard said similar words the most.

Zhang Yulin's name began to spread throughout the Fushan Institute, and even children knew that there was a great Zhang Yulin in Yangjiatun.

The huge profits from refined salt, the second use is to improve the lives of the Yang family and the villagers.

Pork that I couldn't eat once in a few months, but now I can eat it occasionally. In fact, it's okay to eat it every day, but I just think it's a bit wasteful. Because fish does not cost and is more nutritious than pork. Two meals of rice a day, this must be guaranteed, and only when you are full can you have the energy to work. With white rice, of course, there will be no shortage of white noodles.

There is a salary of 30 wen a day, there is also white rice to eat, there is never a shortage of fish and meat, and you can eat pork for three or five days. Their good treatment greatly encouraged the soldiers of the escort team, and their training became more positive.

Again, it's on the body.

The most basic loyalty of the army is to see whose food it eats and whose salary it takes. After having enough funds in hand, Zhang Zhun specially invited a few women to cook for the soldiers of the escort team alone. He built more than a dozen huge thatched huts near the red rock beach as the "barracks" of the escort team.

The fighters no longer need to go home to eat, which in turn saves their families one person's rations. The food of the convoy was a little better than that of the workers. Every day, the rice tube is full, the fish tube is full, the green vegetable tube is full, and the pork is eaten once every three days. When the training is hard, you can still eat beef.

The members of the escort team often train hard and consume a lot of physical energy, and every time they return home, they have to rob people and food from their families. Although the family was very modest and tried to free up food for them as much as possible, food was limited after all, and it was impossible to eat too much in any case. Now, they can finally eat with their bellies open.

"Enough rice!"

"Enough greens!"

"Enough fish!"

"In the future, there will be enough pork!"

Zhang Zhun made bold remarks.

The fighters of the convoy, from now on, can really be completely out of production and train wholeheartedly. In a sense, this is a milestone. Zhang Zhun scoffed at the operation mode of the guards who had to fight and plough the fields at the same time. Since it is an army, the only task is to fight, and nothing else is left to care.

After feeding the fighters, Zhang Zhun appropriately strengthened the intensity of training, focusing on brutal confrontation. At the same time, two-person combat groups, three-person combat groups, five-person combat groups, and other combat methods that cooperate with each other have also begun to be gradually implemented. For the fighters who were not trained seriously enough, Zhang Zhun was unceremoniously harshly criticized.

After all, once the sale of refined salt is on the track, it is inevitable that there will be salt lords who will be jealous, and when the time comes, it is inevitable that the escort team will be dispatched to fight against the salt lords. The fighters of the convoy still lack actual combat experience, and different types of combat groups help them to defeat the enemy in a few pieces and gain combat experience. The fighters who participated in the battle against Lei Laosan last time and the fighters who joined later are completely different in terms of psychological quality.

The escort team has to escort the sale of refined salt, and there will be more and more tasks to escort refined salt to Jimo. Because of the secrecy of the news, there will be no salt lord to fight their idea for the time being. However, as time goes by, people from the outside world will always know about the existence of refined salt. When the time comes, whether the escort team of thirty people can ensure the safety of refined salt will have to be said.

Wang Shixin will definitely not sit idly by and watch Yang Jiatun refine the refined salt, it is inevitable to make trouble, and he may even join forces with the Salt Inspection Division, Bing Beidao and others to make trouble. Who doesn't blush at the huge profits of refined salt? The biggest ability of the officials in the Ming Dynasty is to make money and grab money, and it would be strange if they were willing to let go of the refined salt of Yangjiatun.

It is conceivable that with the increasing sales revenue of refined salt, the tasks to be undertaken by the escort team will become heavier and heavier. The pressure from Fushan, Jimo County, Laizhou, Shandong, and even the upper echelons of the imperial court may be further complicated by refined salt. In the end, these pressures will inevitably fall on the heads of the escorts.

However, if Yang Jiatun wants to retreat, it is absolutely impossible.

People die for money, birds die for food, and give up the refined salt business to others, don't say that Zhang Zhun disagrees, even the most honest military households in Yangjiatun will not agree, and the soldiers of the escort team will not agree. White rice, big fish and meat, such a life, they don't want to lose it if they kill it.

Zhang Zhun is also reluctant to return to his previous life.

After thinking about it for two days, Zhang Zhun put forward more suggestions for refined salt purification and escort teams.

Yang Yinghan, with the cooperation of the Huang family, is responsible for managing the income and expenditure of money, and there are only two people who can spend money: Zhang Zhun and Yang Ruifeng. However, in the final big account, Zhang Zhun still has to make the final measurement. After Yang Ruifeng spent the money, Yang Yinghan had to report to Zhang Zhun as soon as possible. Every night, Zhang Zhun and Yang Yinghan reconcile the accounts, and if there is no problem, Zhang Zhun signs and confirms. A day's accounts are truly over.

Yang Ruifeng is responsible for the purification and sales of refined salt, and the money needed should be used boldly, all in order to seek more profits. The more refined salt you sell, the more you earn, the more profit you make, and the more money you make before it causes a strong reaction from all sides, the better.

At the same time, Yang Ruifeng shoulders a very important task, which is the confidentiality of the purification process. To this end, Zhang Zhun set up the purification method of the assembly line, that is, the villagers who are responsible for filtration and those who are responsible for evaporation must be separated. But fundamentally, it is still necessary to find those core folks. Especially the villagers who have someone in the escort team at home, if their children are still the backbone of the escort team, it will be even better.

Yang Kaide was responsible for talking to the military households and absorbing them into the refined salt purification work.

The purification process of coarse salt requires a lot of manual work and a lot of labor. Moreover, the purchase of private salt and firewood in the periphery also requires a lot of labor. Yangjiatun's fathers and villagers still have to use it as much as possible, after all, they are their own people, and their interests are tied together, so that they can advance and retreat together and resist external pressure together.

At the beginning, people outside thought that what Yang Jiatun picked out was just ordinary private salt, and they didn't care about it, only the salt merchants in Jimo County knew that during this time, the source of refined salt seemed to have some guarantees, but the quantity was still far from enough. Therefore, the price of refined salt remained unchanged at 155 wen per catty.

As time passed, by late March, some shrewd people began to become aware of Yangjiatun's existence. The information fed back by the rats was in Zhaojiatun in the north, and some unknown characters appeared, asking everywhere about the source of refined salt. Locals have told them that the refined salt comes from Yangjiatun, the southernmost part. At the same time, the salt lords in Jimo County also made moves. However, the strange thing is that the actions of these salt lords, as if they were implicated by some mysterious hand, were active for two days, and then disappeared collectively.

"Keep an eye out."

Zhang Zhun didn't dare to be careless about the movement of the salt owl, and repeatedly told the mouse to be careful.

Now Yangjiatun sends out hundreds of catties of refined salt every day, if it is robbed, the loss will be huge, in case there are casualties, it will be even more serious.

"I know."

The rat felt a great responsibility, and personally went to Zhaojiatun, the northernmost part, to arrange for manpower.

Zhang Zhun also strengthened his protection work. The escort team has set up a checkpoint outside Yangjiatun to intercept strangers coming and going. Yang Zixuan, who led the team in the past two days, reported that in just two days, four strangers came to inquire about refined salt. In accordance with Zhang Zhun's orders, the escort team all responded that they did not know. But those strangers did not go far, and stayed in Renjiatun, which was not far away. It seems that these people should be in the front, and there will be big people coming behind.

The time soon came to March 29 of the seventh year of Chongzhen. At noon that day, Zhang Zhun was guiding the escort team to conduct hidden training, and Yang Yinghan sent Yang Kangsheng to report in a hurry, saying that someone asked to see her by name, which seemed to be very formal and professional. She didn't know the bottom of her heart, so she asked Zhang Zhun to come back and get an idea.

"Someone named her by name?"

Zhang Zhun was also strange in his heart, and rushed back immediately.
