The good times always slipped away quickly, and before you knew it, the winter of the first year of Xiande passed quietly. www.biquge.info As a general of the forbidden army, except for grand court meetings such as the Great Dynasty and the Chasing Dynasty, or major accidents in the border military town, Zhang Yue does not need to go to the court, but only goes to the Guards Department every day to routinely go to duty, and he will go home after signing in.
After the Lantern Festival, Zhang Yue finally had something to do. At the end of last year, when the Yellow River broke in Yunzhou, Li Gu went to Yunzhou to supervise the construction of the river embankment, and recruited more than 60,000 Dingfu, which lasted more than a month, and finally completed the construction in the middle of the month.
According to the agreement in advance, after the completion of the embankment, the victims who could not be resettled will be relocated to the northwest Huizhou, but last year, during the freezing period of the Yellow River in Layue, some of the victims were dismissed by the state government, leaving nearly 20,000 people homeless and concentrated in Lu County to wait for relocation.
Early this morning, the sky was dark, the lights were still on in the hall, Zhang Yue had just had breakfast, was sitting in the hall talking with his newlywed wife, Feng Qianhou came over, he only returned to Tokyo last year, the general number of the commercial bank in Guanzhong was handed over to Sha Weng to take care of, Xuan Chongwen and Li Liangbi also went to Luoyang to wait for pick-up, he doesn't have to go to Guanzhong now.
Fu Jinqiong got up to avoid seeing Steward Meng leading Feng Qianhou into the back house, but Zhang Yue smiled and said: "This Mr. Feng is my most trusted staff, and you will have to deal with him in the future, so you don't have to hide." ”
"Then I'll let Qingzhu boil tea and bring it up!" Fu Jinqiong smiled gently, got up and walked back quickly.
Feng Qianhou quickly stepped into the back hall, arched his hand with a smile, and sat down a few feet next to him without restraint. Fu Jinqiong led the maidservant Qingzhu to come in with a tray at the right time, personally served a cup of tea to each of the two people seated, and knelt beside Zhang Yue.
"It's not honey milk tea,......" Feng Qianhou picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said with some surprise.
"The concubine is afraid that it will not be in line with Mr. Feng's taste!" Fu Jinqiong said with a smile.
"Huh...... I really don't like it very much, it's still a little fishy and dry, but the coagulated cheese can still be sold in Guanzhong. "Feng Qianhou has been in charge of the business for a few months, and he is actually very interested, and after returning to Beijing, he suggested opening a branch in the front street of Xiangguo Temple, and the business is not bad.
"20,000 people can easily eat in Huizhou, it's still too little!" Zhang Yue said with some regret.
"So I advise you to go to Yunzhou in person, after all, we are not short of money and food, and the court can still provide a little, wouldn't it be better if we could collect more people to go over?"
"Okay! Has Bian Ji's ship arrived? Zhang Yue had this plan, so he waited for Bian Ji's boat to come over the Bianhe River, and set off directly from the back door to the Bianhe River.
"I'll go take a look outside the back gate of the East Garden......" Feng Qianhou got up with a smile and beckoned Steward Meng to lead the way.
"How long will it take to come back to Yunzhou this time? The two of them in the West Courtyard have big bellies, and Bian Yu has them again, so I am in charge of a lot of things inside and outside by myself! Fu Jinqiong said with some resentment, but she was actually quite happy in her heart. Of course, Cheng Yachan and Yang Junping also pushed everything at home to her, so as not to make her unhappy.
The flat wife is better, the concubine has no status, the family's income and expenditure accounts and the general ledger of businesses in various places were all managed by Yang Junping, with Cheng Yachan's help, and now they are all handed over to Fu Jinqiong. Zhang Yue was still worried that she wouldn't be able to deal with these things, but she didn't think that she would get started soon.
"You can ask them to help you calculate the number, record the account book, the cash can be carried by the soldiers in the front yard, the maids and male servants in the house, you can use them when you see them, and send them to the front yard as handymen if they are not suitable, in short, you are the queen of the family, everything is up to you!" Zhang Yue joked with a smile.
"Huh...... Then you have to come back quickly! If you're not at home, I feel like a year at a time, and I don't know why I want to do these tedious housework......" Fu Jinqiong held Zhang Yue's arm, a little coquettish, revealing the side of a little woman, she generally does not show these emotions easily, and is stern and gentle in front of her subordinates.
"Ten days and half a month at most, I'll be back with you soon!" She said it very truthfully, Zhang Yue was very moved in her heart, hugged Fu Jinqiong into her arms, and gently caressed her back to comfort her.
After a while, Steward Meng bowed down at the door to report, saying that Bian Ji had taken a boat to the Bianhe River behind, and Feng Qianhou and Li Duoshou had already taken a hundred soldiers to carry their luggage and wait on the boat.
"Then I'll send you to the river......" Fu Jinqiong pulled Zhang Yue to get up, gently and seriously smoothed his robe, tugged his collar again, took the black leno from Qingzhu's hand, stood on tiptoe to put it on him, and finally hung a waist knife on his belt, tied a cloak with a black face and a red background, checked it carefully, and then gently pushed him, and whispered: "Okay!" ”
Zhang Yue held her hand, and the two walked out of the back hall together, entering the east garden from the side gate of the courtyard, and going out from the newly opened courtyard gate at the back.
The bare branches of the willows on the embankment were still sprouting, dancing gently in the wind, and three cargo ships of 800 materials had just arrived moored at the water's edge, with high masts towering and no sails, which had to be supported by manpower. The sailors on the ship were already in place, and Bian Ji, Feng Qianhou and others were waiting on the bow deck.
"When I come back, the willows of this river will grow young leaves, and the grass will grow and the warbler will fly at that time, and the scenery will be beautiful, and I will take you out of the city to play!" Zhang Yue promised Fu Jinqiong.
"Good! Then you can only take me alone! Fu Jinqiong's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she pursed her lips and smiled.
"Okay! Wait until I get back! I still want you! Zhang Yue was stunned for a while, and instantly regretted saying too much, nodded and whispered in her ear with a wicked smile, turned around and strode towards the river.
Fu Jinqiong's pretty face instantly flew two blushes, pursed her lips and chuckled, seeing Zhang Yue on the deck, the boat began to start heading west, she chased and trotted two steps on the embankment, waved her hand, her heart became sour, and she almost burst into tears. Thinking that he was also sent to Yanzhou last autumn, but he didn't feel it as strong as this time, until the ship was far away and Zhang Yue couldn't be seen, Fu Jinqiong turned around and walked to the gate of the back garden.
The ship went out of the West Water Gate of Tokyo, pulled up the sails and flew fast, and arrived at Xingze County in Zhengzhou in the afternoon, where Bian Ji gathered more than 200 large and small ships from all over the world, ranging from 300 to 800 materials, small boats to support sailors and luggage and groceries can carry 30 people, large ships can carry 200, no matter how large ships are not suitable for sailing in the Yellow River.
The freezing period of the Yellow River varies from place to place, and the northwest section has a freezing period of two or three months for the closure of the river, while most of the Central Plains have less than half a month. After four days of sailing down the river, the fleet finally arrived in Lu County, Yunzhou in the evening, and the arrival of such a large fleet immediately alarmed the officers and soldiers patrolling the river.
The petty officer who didn't want to patrol the river told him that Guo Congyi was sitting in the county government of Luxian County, and although the river embankment was heightened and reinforced, in order to prevent the peach blossom flood in the spring and summer of this year, Guo Congyi was leading troops to patrol this area. Moreover, there are more than 20,000 victims gathered here, and the county government does not dare to take it lightly, Guo Congyi stationed 3,000 town soldiers in Lu County.
The fleet lined up at the side of the ferry and anchored in a long snake formation, Zhang Yue and Bian Ji left people to watch the boat, and the rest of the people waited for the boat to get off the boat and enter the city to rest, Zhang Yue let the river patrol officer lead the way, and called Bian Ji, Feng Qianhou, and Li Duoshou to go to the county government to ask to see Guo Congyi.
