Chapter 22 There are many villains
At night, a light is like a bean.
Qi Tianliang can finally write some words and know some arithmetic, so it is the most suitable for him to go to Baoan Zhou City to buy rice noodles and cattle farming tools, and Han Chao is cautious and has good skills, so he also has a care by Qi Tianliang's side.
Wang Dou planned to give the two of them one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and let them buy ten stone of rice and ten ploughing oxen, and in addition to the plough tools and all kinds of farm tools, they should buy whatever they needed, and see them distribute the silver according to the situation. However, Wang Dou estimated that the purchase of these materials for hundreds of taels of silver was still tight, and although the price of rice and noodles had decreased compared with the previous two months, it was still expensive. Cattle and farm tools are also expensive.
Wang Dou only had more than 600 taels of silver on his body, and he took out 150 taels of silver at once, and he sighed in his heart that it was really like flowing water, and these expenses were still far from enough. Not to mention the cattle farming tools, the ten stone rice bought at that time must not be able to support it for long. Wang Doutunbao planned to recruit fifty households, presumably those people would be like the military households outside, most of them had no surplus rations, and they had to eat their own.
At the moment, it's okay, you can let everyone drink some porridge, but when the next heavy work such as building a fort and opening up the wasteland, everyone will eat more. The old and weak, women and children can eat less, but the strong man eats rice, at least five stones and five buckets a year, and under the heavy physical labor, everyone has to eat some oil and meat every few days, otherwise it is easy to vomit blood. To supplement the oil meat, it is best to eat some fatty meat, but it is not better than later generations, in this Ming Dynasty, fat meat is much more expensive than lean meat, and pork is really expensive at the moment, and it is also a huge expense here.
Wang Dou's face was calm, looking like he was holding a wisdom pearl, but he was still thinking about how to make some more money in the future, he thought of a lot of ways, but he felt that the money was not happy, his first pot of gold was from the capture of the Houjin army, maybe he should think of a way on this.
Qi Tianliang happily accepted Wang Dou's assignment, Wang Dou trusted him so much that he handed over one hundred and dozens of taels of silver to him without frowning, which made him very moved, his chest beat loudly to ensure that he would complete the task well, while Han Chao calmly arched his hand and stopped talking.
As for Yang Tong, his task is to guard the pier, plus tomorrow to command those new residents to continue to build the ground, accept this task, Yang Tong is also very happy, he finally has room to show his strength. ”
Han Zhong looked uncomfortable at him, and at this time he shouted angrily: "Are you entertaining us?" Briefing, when are you going to report? ”
He took a step forward, and he was about to step forward and scuffle the little school.
The little colonel was taken aback, took a step back, and then felt that he was showing weakness, he pointed at Han Zhong and shouted, "What, where did you run out of the thief prison army, dare to spread wild in front of the Thousand Households Official Hall?" And is there any military law? ”
As soon as he gave an order, several sergeants in front of the door surrounded him, but seeing Wang Dou's burly appearance, everyone was also nervous, especially when he heard that Wang Dou had killed ten Tartars in a row just now, his expression was even more nervous.
Wang Dou grabbed Han Zhong and said in a low voice: "It's important to do business, this kind of villain, find a chance to clean him up in the future." ”
He looked at the little colonel lightly, and looked at his waist card, which was only a general flag official rank, he smiled slightly, stepped forward and said to the little colonel: "My brother is in a hurry, please don't be surprised, Wang Dou came in a hurry, and he didn't prepare any gifts, this bit of silver, please take it to buy wine and drink it." ”
As he spoke, he took out a piece of broken silver of about one tael and handed it to the little colonel with a smile, and the little colonel saw that Han Zhong hated and retreated, and his heart was relieved, and he still muttered to himself: "Didn't you just kill a few Tartars?" Here, you're a tiger, and you've got to squat for me. ”
Then he saw the silver in his hand, his expression was stunned, and he immediately smiled, thinking that this surname Wang was so generous, and when he raised his head, he had already changed his expression, and his voice was affectionate, and he smiled: "Wang Zongqi is really polite, refreshing enough, worthy of being a hero who dares to kill Tartars." ”
He paused: "Okay, please wait for Mr. Wang, and I'll go in and inform Master Du immediately." ”
Wang Dou arched his hand with a smile: "It's hard work." ”
After the little colonel entered, Wang Dou's face became gloomy. ”
Wang Dou took out an ingot of about ten taels of silver, handed it to Du Gong's hand, and said, "Please also ask Lord Du to make it convenient." ”
Du Gong's eyes lit up, he slowly put the silver into his arms, and sighed: "It's okay, they are all brothers of the same institute, so if you can help, you can help a little." ”
He seemed to remember something and said: "After all, you can't allocate a lot of cattle farming tools, most of them still have to be found by Brother Wang himself, I heard that the price of the cattle market in our fort is fair, Brother Wang can consider it." ”
Wang Dou sighed: "Lord Du's introduction, it is naturally good." ”
At this time, the two looked more intimate, Du Gong also affectionately invited Wang Dou, during the banquet, he kept boasting about how he was appreciated by Lord Du, the official of the tun, Wang Dou should be a few words from time to time, so that the atmosphere is more harmonious.
When the wine was hot, Wang Dou seemed to have no intention of mentioning it: "By the way, who is the general flag who guarded the door when you came in?" ”
……
When Wang Dou saw the doorkeeper again, he saw him with a blue face, a distinct palm print on his face, and when he saw Wang Dou, he turned his head hatefully, gritting his teeth, Wang Dou sneered a few times, didn't look at him, and passed by him proudly.
He called Han Zhong and asked him to go with him and Na Du Gong to get the material, and when he heard that there was another material allocation, Han Zhong was also elated, but in the end, Wang Dou was dumbfounded, and the only material he received was four oxen, three pairs of ploughs, twenty hoes, and an empty promise to help Wang Dou publicize in the castle, and in addition, there was nothing, which was worse than Dongjiazhuang.
Halfway through, Wang Doucai scolded: "Damn! ”
