"How can this place be inhabited, quickly find a better house, let my old man live in it!"

"Lord Yu, you're joking with the little ones again, this is the official ......"

The new guests shouted loudly outside before they entered the door, and several teenagers around Wang Tong in the courtyard glanced at each other and shouted out in surprise:

"Yu Jiaoxi, General Yu."

Li Hutou ran in front, and all the teenagers ran out, all of them were very surprised, Wang Tong was also stunned, and walked out with random strides.

Yu Dayou, who was a little rickety, stood in front of the door, smiling and greeting the teenagers who came around, the old general was still slender, wearing a leather robe.

After coming to Tianjin Wei, there were thrilling interceptions on the road, and it was difficult to come here, Wang Tong was calm on the surface, but he also felt tired in private, and suddenly saw the old man visiting, and he was full of emotion for a while.

He is much more mature than the teenagers, and naturally he does not have the same emotional exposure as everyone else, so he first bowed on the steps and greeted him respectfully:

"General Yu hasn't seen you for a long time, and I don't know what important things I have to do in Tianjin."

Yu Dayou stomped his foot, pointed at Wang Tong and scolded with a smile:

"At your age, these old-fashioned politeness learned there, what kind of general is it, and it is called a certain family teacher, don't talk useless gossip, first lead a certain family to a warm place to rest, and then get a pot of good wine, damn, why is it so difficult to endure in the winter in the north."

The other party's heartiness also made Wang Tong's mood immediately better, and he hurriedly said with a smile:

"Teach the first to go to the house for a while, the good wine will be heated immediately, and let the boys burn the fire for you first!"

Everyone's mood was much better, Li Hutou didn't wait for Wang Tong's command to run to the door to greet people, and Li Tao came over and asked:

"Brother Wang, will you settle down in the inn outside the city first?"

Wang Tong raised the title deed and house deed in his hand and said:

"There is a ready-made place, first send a few people over to get out of a room, light the stove to warm up, Sun Xin, isn't there good wine in the things that Panda sent just now, get out a jar, and go to the house to heat it, when it's hot, remember to cover the wine jug with a sleeve, and when you talk to the teacher, go and get busy!"

Yu Dayou rubbed his hands and walked up the steps, Wang Tong turned sideways and made a gesture of please, according to the actual grade, this Yu Dayou is not much higher than Wang Tong, there should still be rules, Yu Dayou shook his head, and slapped him on the shoulder, so as to slap people down.

The teenagers all knew the preferences of this teacher, and not long after he was in the house, someone poured Yu Dayou's coarse porcelain tea jar full of hot tea and brought it first.

Only the people Wang Tong brought from Jingshi were left in the main room, and Yu Dayou took a sip of hot tea and let out a sigh, and explained his intention first.

"The court gave the old man another level of false title, and the imperial horse supervisor gave him five thousand taels of silver, so that the old man went back to his hometown in Quanzhou to retire, pondering and pondering, the son and daughter-in-law of the family have not enjoyed happiness with me for so many years, but I have been affected a lot, they annoy me, and the old man is embarrassed to see them."

Yu Dayou is known as a famous general, not under Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang, but his career is bumpy, ups and downs, the chief military officer has done it, he has also been in prison, and his family has been implicated a lot.

"The old man of the silver asked someone to bring it back, and he stayed here, he has been training and fighting all his life, and his bones hurt when he is idle in Beijing, but I happened to hear that Zou Gonggong said that you want to train a soldier and horse here, and I also want to come and see, maybe I can help something!"

Wang Tong was overjoyed when he heard this, and he said to the little emperor of Wanli that he wanted to train a tiger army, and with the help of such experienced veterans, it was a charcoal in the snow.

He hurriedly stood up, clenched his fists and shook it deeply, and said solemnly:

"Yu Jiaoxi can come to help, it is Wang's luck, I really don't know how to thank it."

Yu Dayou waved his hand, shook his head and said with a smile:

"Don't thank the old man, the old man is willing to come here to help, and he also saw your things in the martial arts hall, what queue, what physical fitness, and some passwords and other things, it's simple, but it makes sense to use it, what our Ming soldiers and horses lack now is this, the old man has been practicing for so many years, and the soldiers seem to have thought through a little bit of your things, Suo surnamed come to see how you train, maybe you can close your eyes when you die." Wang Tong clenched his fists and bowed, and said:

"Yu Jiaoxi has praised it, and I will need more guidance from you on this training in the future."

After all the young people in the room heard Yu Dayou's words, they all stared at Wang Tong with wide eyes, that is, Li Hutou was there proud, looking like I had known it for a long time.

The system of the martial arts hall, the teenagers all felt that they had strengthened their bodies and learned things, everyone thought about who came up with this clever method, and they didn't think of Wang Tong, who was studying in the martial arts hall with them, and suddenly knew from Yu Dayou's mouth at this time, and everyone was surprised and admired in their hearts.

Although Wang Tong is taller than them, he has been in the martial arts hall for so long, and he knows that he is about the same age as everyone else, and he has no shelf, it is inevitable that some people will think that Wang Tong is lucky, and it is not a big deal to be able to do this step today, but he can deal with robbery and killing on the road, act step by step in Tianjin, and even the training method of this martial arts hall is pondered by Wang Tong alone, and this image suddenly became taller.

Everyone laughed a few words, and Wang Tong said solemnly:

"Yu Jiaoxi, if you train soldiers and horses in the future, you are now the governor of the city, and you can't manage it with your own position, if you say it's teaching, you can't convince the public, the small one thinks of an official position, the military general and captain call you a consultant, and the soldiers below call you the chief instructor, and your status is equivalent to the commander of the army, what do you think!"

"All right, all right, this consultant sounds like a civil official, interesting!"

Everything is still grass-made, as soon as Wang Tong said this, Yu Dayou agreed indifferently.

According to Wang Tong's plan, the scale of the Xingcai Inn outside the city is not small, and the conditions are not bad, living outside the city is not lacking, not to mention, there is a clean, but since Yu Dayou is here and moved into the house sent by General Li, the old general can't be left alone to guard there, and the surname Suo began to move today.

Don't look at it for a few days, but Wang Tong said that he wanted to move, and the rich and noble people of the entire Tianjin Acropolis were alarmed, and the soldiers of Tianjin Jinyi Wei Qianhu naturally had to contribute, and the people of each yamen also had their own care, General Li sent a hundred soldiers and ten carts over, and the Qing army in Hejian Mansion stationed in Tianjin arranged for the government to seal the road from the Xingcai Inn to the Drum Tower, which was used exclusively for Wang Tong to move.

As for the soldier Panda and the eunuch Wan Dao, each of them sent fifteen servants and maids, as well as various household utensils and household goods, and each of them had a corresponding generosity.

I thought it was a very troublesome moving process, but I ended up walking with a lot of momentum, and then everything was neatly sold.

Things moved over, people were assigned houses to live in, Ma Sanbiao, Sun Dahai and other people who came with their families all arranged a single courtyard, Wang Tong and the teenagers had a courtyard, and the periphery was those from the Tan family, which could be regarded as being prepared.

The family moved over, but the arrangement of things is not something that others can help, Wang Tong and his subordinates are busy, and someone arranged to make a few dishes for Yu Dayou, a veteran, and opened the good wine on the altar, so that the old general poured himself a drink and rested.

Wang Tong can't be idle in this kind of move, and someone always comes over to ask what to put and where to put it, and who should arrange to live everywhere.

The miasma of smoke and anxiety was exhausted, who would have thought that there would still be guests coming to the door, and there was a report from the family outside, saying that there was a local merchant Xiang Yan to visit.

The name Xiang Yan is really unfamiliar to Wang Tong, and he is a merchant, Wang Tong really can't remember what dealings with businessmen here.

But the more strange it is, the more necessary it is to see, and when the family brings people to them, this person is of medium stature, ordinary appearance, and wears a cotton jacket made of silk fabric, but it is not a new clothes, and this kind of appearance belongs to the kind of person who is inconspicuous on the street, and forgets it immediately after passing by.

As soon as the two met, Xiang Yan kowtowed respectfully with the courtesy of a civil official, and said with a smile when he got up:

"Lord Xue in the east of the capital asked the villain to come to Lord Wang."

The voice was soft, but Wang Tong was stunned, Lord Xue in the east, he only knew Xue Zhanye of the hundred households in the East Factory, but there was no basis for his words, Wang Tong asked directly:

"Do you have a sign?"

That Xiang Yan smiled unabated, his sleeve shook and a palm-sized iron plate fell into his hand, he was facing Wang Tong at this angle, but others couldn't see it, it was the waist card of Dongchang Fanzi, and Xiang Yan kowtowed and said:

"Over there, the little one brought some local products from Tianjin to the adults, persimmon biscuits and fruits, which can be used by the adults during the New Year, and if there is a place for the villain in the future, the villain will come to the door."

After saying that, he kowtowed and sent things in, but he didn't say much and said goodbye respectfully, Wang Tong knew in his heart, this is just to come and take a look, the dark pile arranged here by the East Factory may not be something he can drive, but it is just a face-to-face, and he will know each other in the future, but he can do this, and it is also a favor of the boss.

Xiang Yan left, and Qiao Da from the blacksmith shop came over to ask for instructions, saying that the fifteen blacksmiths who were newly recruited were waiting for the silver money for the New Year, could they withdraw some money first, Wang Tong asked Zhang Shiqiang to get him the silver, but at this time, Sun Dahai hurriedly ran in, with surprise on his face, and said in a loud voice:

"My lord, Master Lu of the Jingshi has sentenced Master Lu to be here!!"

At this time, in the duty room of the eunuchs supervised by the Jingshi Imperial Horse Supervisor, it turned out that King Lu's companion Danglin Gonggong was sitting there with half-squinted eyes, and several eunuchs were standing on the table opposite him, looking through the account books while making quick calculations.
