Chapter 63: Free Publicity

After Liu Liang's incident, everyone saw Xiao Yi's protection of his subordinates, and Wang Changliang even jokingly called Xiao Yi the most 'calf protector' general flag. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Fortunately, the unpleasant thing only happened this one, and after everyone visited the well, they went to the ancestral hall to have a look.

When everyone arrived at the ancestral hall, they saw two soldiers of Yong'an Fort guarding in front of the door, which was also specially arranged by Xiao Yi and Huang Yang, arranging for two veterans to stand in front of the ancestral hall, so that they could see the heroic posture of my soldiers of Yong'an Fort.

These two soldiers are not like the guards outside, but full of spirit, their eyes are jumping and energetic, but they are standing motionless in front of the door, both of them are holding rattan cards in their left hands, and their right hands are holding spears, and the tip of the spear is chilling out, and the two stand outside the ancestral hall, watching everyone come without fear.

Everyone looked over and only felt the momentum around these two people. The two stared into the distance without squinting, their brows furrowed. In stark contrast to the lazy and lazy entourage following behind him, these two were Liu Sheng and a team leader.

Looking away from the veteran in front of the door, I saw a couplet in front of the door that attracted the attention of most people.

"An Yingling, drive the Tartar thieves to die on the battlefield."

"China is prosperous, and the Yongan Iron Army stands in the sky." Wang Changliang read it and was amazed. In front of the door, Liu Sheng and the others listened to the couplet, and stood more straight. Hearing that Xiao Yi wrote a couplet with a pen in front of the ancestral hall, everyone was very appreciative, and they didn't want Xiao Yiyi to be just a martial artist, but also a martial artist who could dance and write.

In fact, there is nothing to visit, Xiao Yitun Fort is not very big. Even if you add Yang Liang's previous affairs, it didn't take half an hour until everyone left. After Xiao Yi finally said goodbye to Wang Changliang and left, Xiao Yi looked at the back of Wang Changliang riding a horse, the smile on his face finally dissipated, revealing a puzzled expression, and asked, "Huang Yang, do you see what these people are doing here?" ”

Huang Yang shook his head, "Even the armor commanders of some small dun guards within a radius of ten miles have come, looking at these people's eyes as if they are looking for something. ”

Shi Lu came, "That's right, most of these people are looking around, and it doesn't look like a visit, and a draught well and ancestral hall are not worth coming. ”

"There's a captain sneakily banging on the city wall, and I saw it and ran away." Shi Gang said suddenly.

Xiao Yihu suddenly thought, could it be that most of these people came to see if they had cut corners in building Tunpu? If he is really shoddy, he may really be caught, and there is only one person who will still miss him at this time, how can this Li You be ghosted.

Xiao Yi thought of this, and suddenly the corners of his mouth curled, since this Li You wanted to find death so much, then he might as well fulfill him.

In Li Zhen's room in Changning Town, most of the guards who had just returned from Xiao Yi, as well as a few Tunbao officials, actually came here, and that Yang Liang actually arrived early, and he should have left Xiao Yi and came here.

As soon as Li You waited for everyone to come in, he couldn't wait to ask, "How is it, is there any trace of cutting corners?" ”

Most people shook their heads, and one of them said, "Xiao Yi's people are watching too closely, and there is always someone looking at me." One of them is also the Tao, "I am the same, there is always someone staring." ”

Li You was greatly disappointed after hearing this, and Li Zhen also said, "What a bunch of waste, such a large group of people didn't find any mistakes when they went?" I still don't believe that the tunbao is iron-clad. Indeed, this line not only did not achieve the purpose of Li You and the others to find flaws, but instead helped Xiao Yi to promote it fiercely in these ten miles and eight villages.

Anyone who has been to Yong'an Fort can't believe that a month ago it was a wasteland, with only three tiled houses. And I also have some understanding of Xiao Yi's Tunding.

Li You also recalled, "Big brother, this Xiao Yi didn't have such a great ability in Xiaohuangzhuang in the past, this tunbao only took half a month to build, and now Xiao Yi has built the fort for a month, even if there is anything, it is too late." ”

Yang Liang's inspiration flashed, "When I left, I saw that Xiao Yi's Tunpu had also built a lot of nests, if those people joined the military household registration, maybe they could work hard here." ”

After Li You heard this, he also opened his mouth and said, "You go back first, Yang Zongqi stays." Everyone nodded and said goodbye, leaving only Yang Liang and Li You to discuss something.

After watching this time, it didn't matter much, the Tunpu was completely completed, and the people were settled. The silver taels are also enough for some time, and now Xiao Yi trains with the veterans and recruits every day, and then takes care of the tunbao, so three or four days have passed. On this day, Xiao Yi just got up, and a horse soldier came from Changning Town, saying that Wang Changliang, the master of the management team, was invited.

Xiao Yi dressed up, put on his general flag official uniform, and wore a waist card. took Huang Yang and a few people to Changning Town, and when they arrived at the gate of Changning Town, the soldiers guarding the door saw Xiao Yi actually opening the door directly with a smile, "Xiao Zongqi is here, open the door quickly." "Obviously, I know Xiao Yi's line.

After entering, Xiao Yi went directly all the way to Wang Changliang's residence, this time the small school guarding the door was actually the one Xiao Yi met for the first time, this time the small school saw Xiao Yi and his party without even asking, and went in directly to report. Shi Gang wondered, "Why doesn't this little school seek money?" ”

Wang Dayong said with a smile, "Now that the name of the adults and my Yong'an Fort has spread in this area, how dare this little school ask for bribes." Everyone laughed when they heard this.

After entering, everyone sat down, Wang Changliang looked at Xiao Yi, "Xiao Yi, some time ago, I sent someone to find Lin Pingran from Peach Blossom Fort to discuss the sale. ”

Xiao Yi was shocked when he heard it, and it seemed that there was progress in the matter of selling people. "Lin Pingran?" Xiao Yi repeated, his tone of confusion was obviously that he had never heard of the name.

Wang Changliang nodded, "You may not have heard of it when you first arrived in Datong, this Lin Pingran is a merchant in Peach Blossom Castle, although he is a businessman, but his family background is not much more reckless than that of the defensive adults, and he is regarded as a wealthy family in Peach Blossom Castle." ”

Xiao Yi nodded, he also knew the situation of merchants in the late Ming Dynasty, merchants were the richest group in the late Ming Dynasty, and some merchants were even rich enough to rival the country, such as Fan Yongdou, one of the eight traitors in later generations, as early as the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Fan did business in Zhangjiakou and Mongolia, after seven generations, it was passed to Fan Yongdou to become a wealthy Han merchant in Zhangjiakou area to Manchu and Mongolian trade.

At that time, Fan Yongdou secretly transported materials and military grain and grass for Houjin, and Emperor Shunzhi named him one of the 'Eight Great Emperor Merchants'.

One of the reasons for the death of the Ming Dynasty was these profiteers, and the profiteers were mainly Jin merchants.

Eight of the ten people have financial support, even if they are not traitors to the country and collaborating with the enemy, they are hiding their wealth and cannot help the imperial court. There is also the Donglin Party at the end of the Ming Dynasty, which only knows the court controversy and does not do anything practical. In the early years of Chongzhen, even Jiangnan also established the Fushe Society, 'holding the government from afar', causing greater disadvantages to the imperial court. Xiao Yi hated these two kinds of people very much in his heart, and he would definitely not let one go if he had the opportunity in the future.

"Lin Pingran wants to buy it for ten taels per person, what do you think?" Wang Changliang was embarrassed.

This is really a black-hearted businessman, who actually pushed the price so low, and at this time, one acre of wasteland on the periphery was only worth ten taels of silver.

Xiao Yi turned his mind and asked, "What do you think?" Wang Changliang paused, and then replied, "It's okay, after all, at this time, there are many homeless people, and it is not easy to sell people." ”

Xiao Yi said, "Your Excellency can do this first, and the opening price is forty or two people, after all, those horse thieves are also strong, and your adult can let them test people." ”

Wang Changliang was greatly surprised when he heard this, and said again and again, "No, that Lin Pingran is not a fool, and he will spend forty taels to buy you horse thieves?" ”

Xiao Yi said with a smile, "Originally, I didn't plan to sell it for these fifty taels, but the adult offered forty taels, Lin Pingran will definitely bargain with you, and then the adult can gradually reduce the price, and the adult will take the initiative, and the final income Xiao Yi estimates that it will be more than 11 taels." ”

Wang Changliang nodded after thinking about it, saying that he would discuss it with Na Lin Pingran tomorrow.

After Xiao Yi said goodbye, Shi Gang said indignantly, "This black-hearted businessman actually thinks that a person is only worth ten taels? Xiao Yi nodded, he was not surprised by this, he didn't expect to rely on these horse thieves for much price, at this time, human life is not as expensive as horses, and those homeless families are not even as valuable as a ploughing cow.

Xiao Yi has now trained as a recruit for half a month, and it has achieved initial results, it is time to pull them to the battlefield to let them see blood, and there is not much money left, just enough to earn some silver taels, and then recruit. More than half of those newcomers are young and strong, and how can they set up a few more squads after screening, after all, their number is still too small.
