readx; Early the next morning, Zhou Jin dressed up and went to the White Deer Cave Academy with Sun Yi, who lived in the guard training house. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThis college does have a school house for students to live in, and only those who have housing nearby are reluctant to stay. The college has no opinion on this, one less person will provide one less expense, but the tuition fee will be fully charged, so why not do it.

It was only four or five miles from the Zhou family's courtyard to the academy, and the two of them arrived at the gate of the academy after a quarter of an hour in the carriage. After entering, they followed the other students to Minglun Hall, where today's feast took place.

The theme of this lecture is the same as that of the imperial court, which is to discuss the matter of the examination and selection. After everyone arrived, a priest would lead everyone to the temple to worship, and then return to Minglun Hall. Then the secretary would ask everyone to sing poetry, so everyone came on stage to sing their own proud works, some echoed other people's poems, and of course some praised each other's works.

After everyone was enthusiastic and familiar, the division invited Jiang Bingyuan, the first speaker of today. He was appointed as the prefect of Jiujiang, and now the prefect of Nanchang, the same jinshi in the forty-fourth year of Wanli, and the same department as Huang Chenghao, but Huang Chenghao is only seven places higher than him. There is also a famous historical figure Hong Chengchou in the same department as them, but Hong Chengchou is a seventeenth member of the second class, and now he is the governor of Shaanxi Sanbian, who is the governor of the military department, and is not at the same level as the two, of course, their fates are completely different.

The lecture ended at noon, and after eating, Zhou Jin left first and returned to the other courtyard. He decided to go back to his house today, let Zhou Yong solve the matter of the mine, and after talking to Li Yu and others, he rushed to Jiujiang.

On the way, Zhou Jin said to Zhou Tong, who was driving the car: "Mrs. Fuli plans to take the second sister of the maid Wei next to her, and after Mrs. heard about it, she wants to ask her over and give it to you, do you have the reason?" ”

When Zhou Tong heard this, he was looking for a wife for himself, and he was so moved that he stopped and kowtowed to Zhou Jin a few times.

"You don't have to thank me, when you come back, you can go and thank Madame, she asked me to do this." Zhou Jin said with a smile.

"Young master, is that lady?" Zhou Tong asked.

Regarding the titles of Li Yu and Huang Shuanghui, everyone responded vaguely, and they were all called Mrs., and there was nothing wrong, so everyone got used to it. And Zhou Tong asked which one now, Zhou Jin was stunned for a moment, after all, he himself had not completely set up his own door, and he couldn't distinguish it by size, so he had to say: "The one in the east house." ”

Chen Rong saw him running back again, and said with a smile: "I just left yesterday, why did I come back today?" ”

Zhou Jin said with a smile: "Of course, I missed my mother, so I rushed back." ”

Chen Rong said with a smile: "Don't be flamboyant, there must be something to ask me." ”

"Hehe, my mother is really like a god." Zhou Jin said with a smile: "Yu'er heard that Second Sister Wei beside you wants to be Xu Ren, I want to come over and give me that scholar Zhou Tong." He's nineteen years old this year, and he's a good guy and smart. Just accompany this second sister Wei. ”

"Oh, yes, there are a few others who have recommended a few to me, but I'm not satisfied. I've seen it this week, and it's not bad, but I still have to ask the second sister if she is willing. ”

Zhou Tong nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I want to ask the opinion of the person." ”

At this time, it was basically determined, and the rest of the things were not under Zhou Jin's control, after all, he had only been a bully young master once, and he was not very experienced. After chatting with Zhou Jin for a while, Zhou Jin went to find Zhou Yong.

Zhou Yong was still so gentle and polite to Zhou Jin, invited him into the study, and asked people to make tea. Zhou Jin didn't care what he was thinking or attitude now, he believed that after telling him about the mine, any unpleasantness would disappear.

"Big brother, I rushed back today because I found an iron mine in Ruichang."

"Iron ore? In Ruichang? Zhou Yong said in surprise.

"Yes, I've had people mined. It's just that some government procedures have not yet been completed. ”

"Oh? The fourth brother came to me for this mine? ”

"Yes, I think my eldest brother will complete the formalities of this mine and release it to the public middle school, I don't plan to ask for it."

"Don't you go to any more mines?"

"Because I have a large demand for iron ore during this time, I won't need it next month. There is also a coal mine, I don't plan to ask for it after the township test, and I don't know how much I can mine every day, I believe that there will be a surplus after meeting my needs. ”

After all, it was his own brother, and Zhou Yong didn't think much about it, so he regarded it as his fourth brother's compensation on the glass, so he said: "Okay, I will get the license." Then when am I going to send someone to the mine? ”

"Anytime, I'll send someone to dig just now, you can find someone to plan it well."

"How do you know there are mines in those mountains?"

"I read some ancient notes, and recorded some stones, which have the same properties as iron ore, so I sent someone to look for them, but I didn't expect to find them."

It was late at night, and Zhou Yong didn't stay long.

On 20 April, more than 250 of Zhou Jin's guards had already obtained their rifles, and each of them had been given 100 rounds of ammunition. Today, Zhou Jin is going to review the shooting ability of these guards. Half an hour later, in the open space behind the mountain in Lushan, the sound of banging was endless, startling the birds and beasts in the forest.

When the shooting was finished, the aftermath disappeared, and the smoke cleared, and the guards noticed that there were many small holes in the smooth stone wall behind the target two hundred paces away, and they went to check it out. I saw a gravel under the stone wall, and the wall had been beaten to a thousand holes. Everyone couldn't help but look at the gun in their hands, and then at the bullet holes in the wall, as if they were all sure that these bullet holes were not fired by them.

Meng Changjiang blew the assembly whistle, and after three breaths, more than 200 people had already lined up.

Zhou Jin began to lecture: "In the past, you were all shooting alone, and you didn't appreciate the power of this weapon very well, but today's intensive shooting is believed to leave a deep impression on you." I am quite satisfied with the fact that no one missed the target in today's shooting, but I also hope that you will strengthen your shooting training and strive to hit all the key points when shooting. ”

Zhou Jin continued: "Today, you all got your own guns, so from today on, you must remember that the guns are in the people!" Lost guns! This is your first oath to me. ”

Meng Changjiang shouted: "Shout with me!" The gun is in the people! Lost guns! ”

So two hundred and fifty guards shouted at the same time: "The gun is here!" Lost guns! ”

Hearing them shouting five times in a row, Zhou Jin asked them to stop and continued: "I recruited you, not to let you be slaves and servants, but to be my arms, my trusted arms. Can you make me trust? ”

"Yes! Yes! The guards replied in unison.

"Good! Then let me tell you, after the Dragon Boat Festival, we will help the imperial court to exterminate the bandits in southern Gansu! After hearing this, the guards looked at each other, and Zhou Jin continued: "The imperial court may not give us any reward for this suppression of bandits, but I still agree, because I need to know whether your actual combat ability is worthy of my trust." ”

Zhou Jin paused and said to Meng Changjiang: "That's all for today." ”

After this shooting, Zhou Jin began to continue reading and writing again, and he had no time to worry about other things. Zhou Tong and Wei Ermei's wedding, he also showed up at the wedding again and rewarded the two of them with some items. It wasn't until after the Dragon Boat Festival that Meng Changjiang got married, and Zhou Jin remembered that he forgot about it.

When he was notified and asked Zhou Hong, he learned that Li Yu helped match, and the woman was the daughter of Song Cheng's brother. After Zhou Hong finished speaking, he took out a box in his hand and said, "Fourth master, Madame prepared it for you and gave it to Meng Changjiang." ”

Zhou Jin took the box, opened it and looked at the gifts inside, but he didn't know what to say, and sighed that he was so lucky to marry such a good daughter-in-law. Humming a little song, he went to drink Meng Changjiang's Daoxi wine, and when he was too happy, he drank a few more glasses.

When he came back from drinking, he went into Li Yu's room, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yuyu, let Xianggong love you." After speaking, he kissed Li Yu on the mouth and said, "Come, my husband will be wide for you." ”

Li Min and Yujuan were busy supporting and persuading. But Zhou Jin was surrounded by these three women, his nose was full of women's taste, his lust was even higher, and his movements became even bigger.

Li Yu knew that he was drunk, and now he could persuade him, so he could only coax him away, and hurriedly shouted: "Huan'er! Ring! ”

Huan'er was talking with Huang Shuanghui, and when she heard the shouting, the two of them hurriedly ran over, and when they saw Zhou Jin hugging Li Yu and kissing him, they hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Young master, Madam is unwell, let's go to the study to sleep." ”

Zhou Jin smiled drunkenly and said, "You guys came just in time, we slept together today, haha!" He stretched out his hand and took the two of them into his arms, and staggered to the side of the bed.

Huang Shuanghui climbed a little taller, and said in Zhou Jin's ear: "Xianggong, let's go to the study to sleep, my sister is pregnant, and I can't accompany you." ”

Zhou Jincai said a little soberly: "Oh, yes, Xiao Yuyu is pregnant." He kissed Li Yu and said, "Well, I can't accompany you today, let's go to the study." After speaking, he walked out of the main room with the support of Huang Shuanghui and Huan'er.

When I came to the door, the wind blew, my head was colder, I looked at Hui Hui in my arms, kissed Huang Shuanghui on the face of the red, and said with a smile: "Hui Hui, go back to the room!" Don't get infected! Light clouds! Light clouds! This girl is lazy again! ”

These voices had already woken up the other people in the courtyard, and the light cloud ran over from the side room with a coat: "Young master! ”

"What are you doing! Get Madame into the house. After speaking, he hugged Huan'er and walked towards the east wing.

In mid-May, Huang Chenghao sent a letter asking Zhou Jin to take him to Nanchang, and after screening, only 200 people were brought this time, and the rest had to be guarded in other courtyards. Since this time he was fighting bandits with the imperial army, and the logistics were guaranteed, Zhou Jin left Zhou Hong behind.

After Huang Chenghao saw Zhou Jin, he first checked his composition and found that all bullshit was played. For this reason, Zhou Jin, a man in his twenties, was beaten seven or eight times like a child. The hands were red and swollen like steamed buns, and the guards didn't know whether to laugh or sympathize when they saw it, and they were all expressionless.

Of course, Shen Yunlan felt sorry for her son-in-law, and she medicated him and complained that Huang Chenghao couldn't teach people, which was extremely old-fashioned.

"My father-in-law is also good for me."

"I also know, but I shouldn't hit anyone, and I'm not a child, just talk about it." Shen Yunlan said: "Your father-in-law is too old-fashioned, not a writer, and he will get a top three at most for the question." In the future, you will bring the article to me first, and let my mother teach you to change it before giving it to your father-in-law. ”

"I'm not afraid that you will be tired, so I dare not disturb you."

"I just read books every day to pass the time for you to correct them."

Zhou Jin thanked his mother-in-law, and then talked about Huang Shuanghui's condition. Due to the treatment in the past month, the amount of white blood cells in Huang Shuanghui has increased significantly, her face has become ruddy, and her daily spirit has improved a lot. After hearing this, Shen Yunlan wanted to take her daughter to take a look. But Huang Shuanghui's illness could not often communicate with the outside world during the treatment stage, let alone come to Nanchang.

Zhou Jin had no choice but to persuade: "Hui Hui's disease is now in the treatment stage, and she is susceptible to wind evil, so she can't come to Nanchang." Otherwise, after Gannan comes back this time, I will accompany you to Jiujiang. ”

Shen Yunlan thought about it, she had no relatives in Nanchang, and Huang Chenghao either handled official business, or studied medical skills to cultivate her body, and rarely had time to talk to her, so she agreed to Zhou Jin.

In the second half of the year, Huang Chenghao set off from Nanchang with a thousand soldiers and horses and Zhou Jin's escort to Taihe County. After resting in the county for a day, he drove to the mountains west of the county.
