Chapter 209: Happy to be a father

"Lu Xiong, what else do you have to say?"

After figuring out what happened, the group went down the mine again and came to the front of the handsome tent. In front of nearly a thousand soldiers and civilians, Yuan Mai stared at Lu Xiong coldly and asked sharply.

Lu Xiong's face was already as pale as earth, and he knelt on the ground with a "poof", kowtowing and begging for mercy: "Let you spare your life, it is the villain who is greedy for money, and I saw that Ma Ji's tun excavated more black gold stones, for fear that the bounty would fall into their hands, so I came to provoke, but I didn't know that they had strange things to help, it was I who made a big mistake because of greed, please make you spare your life!" ”

"I set up a bounty to reward migrant workers who do excellent work and are diligent; Who knew that you were greedy because of this, picking quarrels and provoking troubles, and gathering crowds to fight, resulting in the death of four innocent lives and more than a dozen people bleeding and wounding. If everyone is like you, trying to get something for nothing, how can this black gold stone be mined? If you make such a big mistake, you can't leave it! ”

Yuan Mai's tone was cold and ruthless, and he looked back and said: "Come on, tie up this Lu Xiong for me, behead it to show the public, and set an example." In the future, if anyone dares to make something out of nothing, picking quarrels and provoking trouble, he will not be forgiven! ”

"Envoy, spare your life, it's a villain!" Lu Xiong was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, kowtowing like pounding garlic.

A knife and axe hand had already stepped forward to push Lu Xiong to the ground, pulled him to an open place, raised his knife and fell, cut off a head, and hung his head to show the public. More than 7,000 people are all awe-inspiring, Fang knows that the law is ruthless, and the iron face of Lord Thorn Shi is like a mountain, and there is no room for sand in his eyes. Those tun chiefs who tried to fish in troubled waters and secretly poured "black gold stones" outside for personal gain had to quietly give up this idea!

After killing Lu Xiong, Yuan Mai ordered the people who died in the fight to be collected and sent back to their hometown. And a generous pension was given. There are nearly six or seven thousand people in the mines, and if they want to completely control the hearts of the people, they must be both gracious and powerful, so that when they appreciate the ruthlessness of the iron face, they must also see that their own kindness is as heavy as a mountain. As long as you follow the rules, you will never treat them badly!

After shocking the people, Yuan Mai wooed Ma Jun's brothers and said: "Ma Jun is extraordinary, and he can manufacture such a device, which greatly reduces the labor volume of migrant workers, and is such a talent." It should be reused. I have promoted you to Gongcao Ling this time. Enjoy 200 stone ranks, responsible for assisting Lord Shi Tao to manage the production of the mine. Make a batch of wheelbarrows and shaft wheels to speed up the production of our mines! ”

Although this Ma Jun is wooden and his words and deeds, he is not a fool. Be a craftsman yourself here. The monthly remuneration is only one hundred and fifty dollars. , at most, can only buy about five stones of corn, and now Lord Thorn Shi wants to promote himself to be an official. It's forty times the size of what it is now, it's like a big pie falling from the sky!

"Ma Jun thank Lord Assassin Shi for his promotion!" Ma Jun immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed in thanks.

Yuan Mai laughed: "Ma San, Ma San, didn't your brother say that you are not good at words, why have you suddenly become so clever now?" Ha ha...... I see that you are clearly wise and foolish, and you are pretending to be confused with the history of this thorn, do you say yes or no? ”

Listening to Yuan Mai's words, the nearly 1,000 soldiers and civilians present burst into laughter again, and even Xu Shu and Shi Tao were shaking their beards when they laughed, and they couldn't close their mouths.

Ma Jun blushed and defended: "My lord promoted, give so much corn a month, no longer have to starve, two hundred stone corn, enough for the villagers in our village to eat for half a year, how can you not be grateful!" ”

Yuan Mai praised the head: "Very good, wealth does not forget its roots, which is enough to show that Ma Deheng can't help but be wise, and he also has sympathy." You are here to help Lord Shi Tao do a good job of production, and after helping each tun to make a well wheel and a wheelbarrow, immediately rush to Hanoi, this thorn history has another important task, as long as you can make a performance, not to say two hundred stones a month, it is not impossible to say two thousand stones! ”

"The villain has thanked the envoy for his kindness, and he will definitely go to Hanoi in a few days to listen to the dispatch!" Ma Jun kowtowed again to receive his life.

After giving Ma Jun an official position, Yuan Mai casually rewarded Ma Ji with a position, and asked him to be responsible for assisting the clerks in counting the production of each tun, so as to be fair and just, so that those who sweat can get the most appropriate reward.

Ma Ji immediately knelt on the ground to thank him, and the Ma brothers were in the limelight for a while, which made the seven thousand people envious.

A turmoil ended, and Yuan Maiping added a scientific and technological talent, happy in his heart, ordered someone to buy wine and food, entertain the Ma brothers, and try to have a good relationship with Ma Jun, so as not to be pried into the corner. Seeing that Lord Thorn Shi was so serious, he only shed tears of tears that moved the Ma Jun brothers, and swore to repay the great kindness of the king!

Because of this turmoil, Yuan Mai stayed overnight in the mining area of Gaodu, and the next day he took Xu Shu and Zhou Cang to lead 1,500 foot soldiers to return to Huai County, leaving Shi Tao and the Ma brothers to manage the mining of "Wujin Stone".

Two days later, Yuan Mai led his troops into the county seat of Huaixian, because the war in the east was tense, and he couldn't care about making love with his wives and concubines, so he first summoned Tian Chou, Zhao Yun, Wang Shuang and others to discuss major matters.

According to the information reported by the scouts from all walks of life, the war in the Baimajin area is still stable, and the duel between Yan Liang, Cao Ren, and Xiahoudun has won and lost each other, and there have been four or five fierce battles of all sizes, and no one can take advantage of each other for a while. Since the forward forces are evenly matched, the main forces of both sides are still stationed in place, holding their troops and waiting for a good opportunity.

In the east, Gao Ran encountered the defense of Cheng Yu and LΓΌ Qian in the area of Dong'e and Fan County, and attacked for many days, but it was difficult to be effective, but he lost his troops and lost his generals, so he had to retreat twenty miles to report the battle situation to Yuan Shao and ask for instructions.

The Yuan army advanced in three ways, the only breakthrough was Zhang He and Gao Shun on the west road, the two led the troops to attack the sour date, took advantage of the fog to break through the county seat, killed the guard Cao Kuan, captured more than 1,000 enemies, beheaded more than 2,000 Cao soldiers, and took the county in one fell swoop, which greatly boosted the morale of the Yuan army.

"It seems that the two sides are in a stalemate, and the flames of war will not burn to Hanoi for the time being. Continue to strengthen your defenses and wait and see what happens! Yuan Mai picked up the fan and shook it a few times, and ordered everyone.

"Obey your lordship!" All the civil and military staff received the order in unison.

Yuan Mai instructed Tian Chou again: "Three or two days later, the vehicle sent by Shi Tao to escort the 'Wujin Stone' is about to enter Hanoi, you gather all the big scholars from all the counties in Hanoi to Huai County, sell the Wujin Stone to them, in exchange for money, and then use the money to buy grain and grass, or directly exchange grain and grass, it is even better!" ”

"Lord Thorn Shi is clever and wise, and he has mined so many black gold stones. The matter of exchanging grain and grass from the local tyrants of the Shi clan is left to the domain! Tian Chou bowed down to receive the order, and by the way, he gave Yuan Mai a high hat.

The council dispersed, Yuan Mai came to the backyard to visit his wife and concubine, and it was indispensable to tease when there was no one, and when it was time for dinner, at Zhen Mi's suggestion, the family made another meal of dumplings, and they were very happy to eat, and they had the taste of rapping for three days.

Xiao Biesheng is newly married, and he hasn't tasted femininity for about ten days. In the dead of night, Yuan Mai naturally would not be honest, so he first held Zhen Mi and made a while, and was about to "wipe the gun" when he was about to "wipe the gun".

However, Yuan Mai was neither angry nor anxious. The master is a dignified assassin of the history, a feudal official, and the power is tilted to one side, are you still worried that there is no woman to sleep with?

Leaving Zhen Mi's room and entering the courtyard of the Helan clan, after a lot of upheaval, Wushan clouds and rain, only tired and panting, in addition to releasing the essence, he also drank some "drinks" by the way to make up for the tired body.

In the middle of the night, Yuan Gongzi's weak little friend became restless again, and when Helan was about to serve her husband, her infant son cried, and Helan had no choice but to let his man be restless and turn around to feed his son.

Yuan Mai's heart was itchy like a cat scratch, so he had to get up and say, "Since that's the case, I'll go to Zhen Ji's room to sleep!" ”

Helan lay still and said with a smile, "I guess you're going to Sister Wen Ji's room, right?" Sister Zhen Mi has been in Hanoi for more than a month, and I heard that she is still a virgin! Husband, why are you so useless? ”

"Uh...... You even know about this? Yuan Mai scratched his scalp helplessly, "I'm afraid that I won't be able to satisfy your sisters, so I haven't moved her for the time being, and when your belly is big again, my husband and I will take the Ah Mi sacrifice gun!" ”

After getting dressed, I got up and got out of bed, and prepared to go to Cai Yan's room for a double repair. At present, Cai Yan is not his wife and concubine, there is a kind of cheating stimulation, and it is very enjoyable to do it, which is different from sleeping with her own woman!

As soon as I walked out of the courtyard gate, I saw Du's maidservant girl playing a lantern, and she came over in a panic, and said anxiously: "Oh no, no, Mrs. is going to give birth!" ”

Hearing that Du Shi was about to give birth, Yuan Mai's fighting spirit immediately dissipated without a trace, and immediately sent someone to summon Wen Po to deliver the baby. In an instant, the backyard of the General's Mansion was brightly lit, and dozens of masters and servants were busy.

This time she came to deliver the baby or the Wen Po who delivered Helan last time, her means are really good, plus Du Shi gave birth to the second child this time, it didn't take much effort, the baby fell to the ground, and there was a baby boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes!

"Congratulations, congratulations, you're a big fat boy again!" Wen Po congratulated with a smile.

Yuan Mai looked up to the sky and laughed: "Haha...... It seems that I was born to give birth to a son, it is good to give birth to a son, when I grow up, I will follow Lao Tzu to fight the world, sit on the country, and our Yuan family's country will be forever! ”

Wen Po left happily after receiving the bounty, and Zhen Mi couldn't put it down and coaxed Du's son. Du Shi, who was slightly tired, looked at Yuan Mai and said affectionately: "Please give the child a name!" ”

Yuan Mai had already thought of the name of the son in Du's belly, and blurted out at this moment: "Yuan Li! I hope that the birth of my son can bring good luck to his father and make me Yuan Xianyong invincible, so I am called Yuan Li, and my name is good luck! ”

"Good name! The concubine likes it tightly, I think the child will like it too! ”

Listening to Yuan Mai's words, Du Shi immediately smiled like a flower in approval. The backyard of the General's Mansion was jubilant for a while. Decorations. (To be continued......)
