After dinner, Feng Youcai convened Zheng Hao and Zhang Yang to meet again. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Zhang Yang suggested that he should go to the hundred households as soon as possible to get the land deed, and bring the weapons, equipment and food; Zheng Hao suggested that some more people should be hired from the 100 households to help with the work, and the other is that the tools are not handy, so we should buy more tools as soon as possible, especially the means of transportation.

In this way, Feng Youcai decided to go to the Baihu Office tomorrow and get the title deed first, or he would really not be at ease. When you go to bed at night, set your bedroom as the exit of the system.

On the sixth day of the first month of August, the workers get up very early, start working at half past six, take advantage of the cool morning, strive to do more, and then have breakfast after a period of work.

After Feng Youcai finished breakfast, he led the intermediate military division Lu Xiao, and Feng Di led 4 guards and 3 pikemen, a total of 10 people, to go to the hundred households to receive supplies together.

All of them rode horses, so they arrived at the Lingsha Castle Hundred Households at 9 o'clock, and went to the Hundred Households first.

"Report to the Hundred Households, I have all recruited all the personnel now, and I am here to report to the Lord." Feng Youcai said.

"It's very fast, I didn't expect it to be so fast, what is the quality of the recruits?" Li Baihu asked.

"The body is very good, this time I brought 9 people to show the adults. Everyone else was on duty and couldn't leave the pier. Now they're all waiting at the door, why don't you go to the door first and check it? ”

"There's no need for this, you can just take a fancy to it."

"Thank you for your support."

"You don't have to be polite, now the autumn harvest is coming soon, your task is very difficult, you must train them well and do a good job."

"Yes, my lord, I promise to complete the mission."

"You came to receive weapons, equipment and food this time, I have prepared them, and I can receive them in a while" Li Baihu said and got up again, took out a few pieces of paper from the drawer, handed them to Feng Youcai and said: "This is the title deed, which is under the jurisdiction of the north of the Great Wall where we are located, and now I give it to you, you must keep it." ”

"Yes, my lord, I will take care of it." , Feng Youcai took the title deed, and took a general look, it is from the North Great Wall, to Xiayingzidun, Baofeng Dun and Zhenguan Dun, 2000 meters to the west, and to the east of the Yellow River.

Li Baihu saw that Feng Youcai had put away the land deed, so he continued: "Then I'll write a note, you go and get food and weapons and equipment, I have prepared 33 sets of weapons and equipment for you; The grain is 250 catties a day, do you receive it once a month or all at once? ”

"My lord, I don't have a place to put it when I get it at once, you can write a note and I'll get it at any time."

"Okay, 7,500 catties per month, I'll write 12 notes, you can go to the warehouse at any time to get it." As he spoke, Li Baihu began to write a note for receiving weapons and equipment and a note for receiving food, and Feng Youcai waited quietly.

A quarter of an hour later, Li Baihu finally wrote the note and handed the 13 notes to Feng Youcai, who hurriedly took the note.

Li Baihu said, "I have done everything I said, the next step is up to you, if you don't do it well, don't blame me for being unkind." ”

"Please rest assured, I will do things beautifully, and I can't disgrace you."

"That's good, I hope so."

"Thank you for your support, and the next official will retire."

"Alright, let's go."

After Feng Youcai came out, he handed the slip to Lu Xiao, "You will be responsible for receiving the food in the future, this is the strip, you can keep it." ”

"Yes, my lord"

"Now you go and buy a few carriages and the materials needed for the construction site, this is the list and 300 taels of silver, and then go to get the materials, if there are no carriages to sell or there are not enough carriages, you can hire a few carriages" said and handed the list and silver to Lu Xiao.

"Yes, my lord"

"Eat by yourself at noon, don't wait for me, I'll go home first now, and I'll wait for you at the north gate of the city at 4 o'clock in the afternoon."

"Yes, my lord"

After the arrangement, Feng Youcai led the horse home.

On the whole, this time the work went very smoothly, so that Feng Youcai had a good impression of Li Baihu, at least he did what he said, although he wanted to use himself, he still liked to be used.

This time, Feng Youcai bought 10 catties of pork from a butcher stall on the street, pork is more expensive than mutton, it costs 60 wen a catty, anyway, now he is not short of that money; By the way, I bought some greens and eggs. When I was about to get home, I took out 1 bag of rice and 1 bag of horse feed from the system warehouse and put them on horseback.

Seeing her son come back, the mother was still very happy, and Niuniu was also very happy.

Feng Youcai bought back the meat and vegetables, Niuniu was busy cooking, because the oil used to cook at this time was made of pork fat, so Niuniu first separated the thin and fat, and boiled the lard first, and then cooked.

Feng Youcai said to Niuniu: "You boil the lard first, steam the rice for a while, and after washing the vegetables, I'll fry it, so that you can taste the dishes I made." ”

Niu Niu nodded in agreement, and then went to get busy. Feng Youcai chatted with his mother about some family life, mainly the 5 families who sacrificed last time, very pitiful, now the pension is very small, the food and salary are owed for almost 1 year, and life is very difficult, and it is even more difficult in winter. Feng Youcai also told his mother that he was the chief flag officer, and now he has recruited more than 50 soldiers, and there is no problem with safety, now he even has a horse, and if there is danger, he will run on horseback, so don't worry.

Knowing the difficulties of those families, Feng Youcai decided to help everyone. The fort is not big, and soon arrived at Zhao Laoshuo's house, which happened to be at lunchtime, and they were all at home. The first is to call the uncle, saying that he came to ask the uncle for help, Feng Youcai explained his intention, saying that he is now building a fort in Zhenguandun, there are not enough people, and people are needed to work, all of them are local people who know the roots, so I want the uncle to help recruit some people, take care of food, 1 tael of silver per month, or send food can also send food, it is 150 catties of food, if the uncle feels at ease, you can also work after sending food. It can be done by contacting as many people as you like, as long as you can work, preferably from 20 to 40 years old.

The people in the fort knew that Feng Youcai was the chief flag officer and was responsible for recruiting military households, but he had to be stationed north of the North Great Wall, so no one wanted to go to the north. Now if you want to recruit workers to work, no one may be willing to go, after all, the Mongolian cavalry can come to loot at any time, and the advantage is that you can give food or silver, which is simply a blessing for many families who can't open the pot, even if it is dangerous, they have to go, not to mention that the town is close to Guandun.

Zhao Laozhuan didn't say anything to death, and said to give it a try. Feng Youcai said that it is best to decide before 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and the grain can be divided directly, so that there is no need to transport it to Zhenguandun, and even the transportation is saved, and those who are willing to go can gather at the north gate at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and receive one month's grain first, and then receive grain after a full month.

When Feng Youcai came home, Niuniu was ready, just waiting for him to go home and stir-fry. It's still the most traditional method of stir-frying, but there is no seasoning or anything, and the taste is definitely not much better, but this is the first time I have cooked, it doesn't matter, and there are no outsiders anyway. In the future, if you have time, you must carefully study the details of the system, and you must first buy some spices, the meals in this era are really light.

A total of 2 dishes were cooked, and both mother and Niuniu said it was delicious, but it must be a lie, it is good for children to have meat, and Niuniu also belongs to children.

When eating, my mother still nagged endlessly, so I had to pay attention to safety, run quickly when things were not good, and eat well, etc.

After eating, he poured out some of the horse's feed for the horse to eat, let it drink some water, and then went back to the house to sleep, and let Niuniu wake herself up at half past two.

In the afternoon, when he left, he left 5 taels of silver for his mother, and told his mother to eat well, don't always weave cloth, and now that he is the chief flag officer, he is not short of that money. gave Niuniu 3 taels of silver, let her buy clothes to wear, she can't wear it so old in the future, she is now the chief flag officer, you can't be ashamed of yourself, Niuniu blushed when she said it.

When I came to the north gate, there were already a lot of people gathered there, and Lu Xiao and they were also waiting, a total of 5 carts of supplies, Lu Xiao first reported forward: "Young master, the materials that should be received and the materials that should be bought have been completed." ”

"Yes, is there enough money? Was the carriage bought? ”

"Young master, I bought 2 cars and rented 3 cars, mainly because they are not sold, and the price is not cheap." Lu Xiao replied.

"Okay, I see, wait a minute, and then we'll go."

"Okay, young master"

At this time, Zhao Laozhuan also came over, and Feng Youcai hurriedly shouted, "Hello, uncle." ”

"Nephew, there are a total of 45 people who want to work, and they are all members of their own families who know their roots, do you think they sent the food first?"

"Okay, you and Lu Xiao have done this thing, Lu Xiao, come here, it's Uncle Lao Shu, help us recruit 45 people, each person will eat, and the salary of 150 catties of grain per month, you and Uncle Lao Tie will send the grain down first, and save the trouble of transporting it back and forth."

"Yes, young master," Lu Xiao replied and went to distribute food with Uncle Lao. Feng Youcai thought, it doesn't matter if you don't work after receiving food, anyway, it's all local to your hometown, just this once.

After each person received the food, he signed or pressed his fingerprint on the back of his name, and Zhao Lao was supervised on the side, and instructed him to work hard and pay attention to safety when working.

The families of these people who went to work basically couldn't open the pot, so when they received the food, their families were already waiting on the side, Feng Youcai arranged for them to send the food home, and come back within half an hour to set off, anyway, the time is enough, the small castle is very small, and it takes half an hour to run several back and forth.

Of the 45 people hired, two were selected to drive the wagon.

The carriage that has been hired is not easy to return, so let these people who work in the carriage, the carriage can only seat more than 20 people, so it is required to be replaced halfway through the journey, and the rest of the people follow the carriage on foot, anyway, it is only 10 miles away, 2 hours to arrive, and it is not far on foot.

2 pikemen rode horses to guard 1 mile in front, 1 pikemen rode to lead the way in front of the carriage, Feng Youcai and 4 guards pressed the formation behind, and the other 1 guard went back first to report safety, and asked the kitchen to cook for 50 more people tonight.
