Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the season of autumn and coolness, during this time, Gao Huaiyuan can be said to live a relatively quiet life, and everything seems to be going according to his plan.

The new glazed workshop on this side of Wohuzhuang has been built, and Li Tong took all those craftsmen to transfer to the new workshop of Wohuzhuang, and before leaving, restored the old place to a porcelain kiln, and recruited a few porcelain workers to re-fire some coarse porcelain there, which is equivalent to completely separating his own industry from the Gao family's industry.

And Li Tong during this period of time, because of his gratitude to Gao Huaiyuan, he worked very hard, and almost put all his energy into Liulifang, after a period of exploration, now he is also an insider, this time he came to Crouching Tiger Village to do things, he and those craftsmen are very happy, they know that the people who can enter Crouching Tiger Village can be regarded as Gao Huaiyuan's real cronies, and life here is much better than the old porcelain kiln before, so as soon as they come here, they will devote themselves to the production of Liulifang.

And after such a long period of observation, among the previous batch of teenagers, those who were not suitable for being soldiers were also selected by Gao Huaiyuan, and they were simply transferred to work in the soap workshop, or entered the Liulifang as an apprentice, although these teenagers felt a little faceless, but they were still very satisfied with being able to stay in Crouching Tiger Village and do things for Gao Huaiyuan, and in their opinion, they were not necessarily worse than others, they could at least learn a craft, and they only needed to do things well in the second half of their lives. The young master will also not treat them badly, and will let them have no worries about food and clothing, so even after transferring to the workshop to do things, these teenagers are also very attentive.

After screening, among the more than 60 old batch of teenagers, thirty-five people were finally left, these teenagers, after Gao Huaiyuan's continuous tempering, plus sufficient nutrition, to ensure their growth, a group of fourteen or fifteen-year-old teenagers each grown tall and strong, compared to people of the same age, each of them is basically half a head taller, every day out of the exercise, each is a dragon and tiger posture, so that Gao Huaiyuan is very satisfied.

The discipline of these teenagers is very strong, and there is no doubt about Gao Huaiyuan's loyalty, everything that Gao Huaiyuan requires, they have always been meticulous and unhesitatingly completed, and in addition to the training of Gao Huaiyuan, Huang Yan, Zhou Hao and others, their personal martial arts have also been greatly improved, now don't look at them as a group of young men, but if they are allowed to deal with two or three strong men, it is estimated that everyone is fine.

Gao Huaiyuan trained privately, although no one knew, but after all, it was not a legal thing, once someone knew, accuse him of trying to rebel, I am afraid he will leave his property and die!

But this matter was quickly and satisfactorily resolved, because the last time he helped the county government solve the matter of Yang Tong's gang of bandits, not long after, Gao Huaiyuan was named by Liu Zhixian to become the senior in Gaojiazhuang, although Gao Huaiyuan was an official household, and he didn't have to go on a business trip, but after he learned about the system of the Song generation, he knew that if he wanted to legally have a private army, acting as this senior was a way, so he didn't shirk.

And after he took over the position of this senior chief, he made a register of some of the young people under his command, and rushed into the archers of the county government through Xing Zhutou, and once there were bandits in the county on weekdays, he accompanied the county lieutenant Wang to arrest the bandits, and completely became a group of private soldiers who legally owned weapons, so that his original illegal things were also dressed in a legal coat.

Don't look at Gao Huaiyuan's young age, it seems that being a senior is a little bit unconvincing, but in the area of Gaojiazhuang, Gao Huaiyuan has already had a pretty good reputation, he usually acts low-key, and is very polite to distant relatives and neighbors in Gaojiazhuang, and from time to time when he sees someone in trouble, he will reach out to help, so the people in this area, after learning that he became the elder, did not raise any objections, but were more respectful to him.

Although Gao Huaiyuan was not able to instigate Liu Zhixian to set up a bow and arrow club in Daye County, but also let Liu Zhixian and Wang County Lieutenants, who were officials, begin to pay attention to this kind of local armament, and ordered the elders of each township to organize the strong men and archers of each township according to the household registration system, and to concentrate on training every once in a while, so as to save the situation that no one can use when there is a gang of bandits like Yang Tong in the troubled place.

Don't look at the little official who only became this sesame mung bean, but there are still a lot of things, what kind of position, what work to do, so Gao Huaiyuan now seems to be busier than before, taking this opportunity, the people in the Gaojiazhuang area have also touched the people's feelings, according to the difference between households and Dingkou, in the Gaojiazhuang area, recruited 100 strong men, every once in a while, these strong men will be gathered near the old house of the Gao family, practice.

When the first time the strong men were concentrated, some strong men saw that Gao Huaiyuan was still an adult, and they were somewhat unconvinced, but when they saw Gao Huaiyuan and several teenagers under him practice archery and sword and gun kung fu, they no longer dared to underestimate him, so they honestly began to follow Gao Huaiyuan, a young elder, and practiced kung fu.

Gao Huaiyuan doesn't expect this group of strong men to become any soldiers, but he just hopes that within the scope of his ability, it is enough for the people here to gradually form a martial style, whether a nation is strong or not, and whether the people are strong or not is directly related, as the agricultural economy of the Great Song Dynasty, want to be stronger than the northern nation in the people, although there is not much hope, but at least let the people understand that once there is a foreign invasion, it can be regarded as being able to do something for the nation.

When Gao Huaiyuan was busy with these things, a large number of displaced people appeared in the local area again, after inquiring, Gao Huaiyuan learned that Sichuan area, this year suffered a huge natural disaster, eastern Sichuan and western Sichuan during February and March There were violent earthquakes, Mahu Yijie Mountain collapsed for dozens of miles, the river was silted, and a strong earthquake occurred in June, so that the people in many places in Sichuan suffered heavy casualties, but the local government was not good, many people had to leave their hometowns, flee to other places to make a living, don't look at Daye County is not close to Sichuan, But there are still a lot of refugees here.

It stands to reason that if there is such a big disaster in the place, the government should do its best to help, but now in the imperial court, after Ning Zong went through the failure of the Kaixi Northern Expedition launched by the former Minister of Power Han Yanfu, Shi Miyuan secretly ambushed Han Yufu, and was disheartened, and the power fell into the hands of Shi Miyuan, the minister of power, but Shi Miyuan, this guy, ignored such a big thing, and let the refugees in Sichuan fend for themselves, which led to such a situation, after understanding these things, Gao Huaiyuan wanted to kill this damn Shi Miyuan with a knife and pulled down, But now he also knows that he can't get in touch with a high-ranking and powerful minister like him at all, so he can only grit his teeth and pull it down, and use this opportunity to let Xue Yan take in some more orphans and pull him down, and the conditions are inappropriately relaxed, which can be regarded as doing some meager help for these refugees.

In this way, Xue Yan collected fifty or sixty homeless teenagers from the local area, many of whom were girls, and sent them to Crouching Tiger Village.

Fortunately, when the Crouching Tiger Village was expanded, Gao Huaiyuan's plan was relatively large, and the number of houses built in Crouching Tiger Village was sufficient, otherwise if so many teenagers suddenly poured in, he really had no place to place them, but after receiving these teenagers, the Crouching Tiger Village could be regarded as reaching its limit.

Many people in Daye County also know about Gao Huaiyuan's shelter of refugees and orphans, but after positive publicity, Gao Huaiyuan's behavior did not cause too much suspicion among others, and many people praised Gao Huaiyuan's benevolence and righteousness, Liu Zhixian even learned about it, and asked Gao Huaiyuan to get a plaque to send it to commend Gao Huaiyuan's behavior, but he didn't think about it, how could he accommodate so many orphans in an old Gao family's house!

With the arrival of a large number of orphans in batches, Crouching Tiger Village is completely lively, just arranging the lives of these teenagers, Gao Huaiyuan and others are busy with all fours, Gao Huaiyuan personally checked this time, and selected this large number of orphans, some of the stronger ones, a total of more than 30 people were selected, and they were incorporated into the nursing team, so that his personal armament reached as many as sixty or seventy people.

The remaining teenagers were a little younger or too weak, so they were all assigned to Jiang Peng's management, and let them work in the workshop now, while recuperating their thin bodies, while observing their situation, so as to arrange their places in the future.

The rest of the dozen or so girls, considering their gender, set aside a separate courtyard for them to live in, and as for management, Gao Huaiyuan simply handed it over to Liu Er to be responsible.

Liu Er was originally kind-hearted, and when she saw these girls, she was very pitiful, so she took care of them as sisters, and soon made these girls like her, and Sister Liu Er kept screaming all day long.

After receiving this group of orphans from Sichuan, Gao Huaiyuan immediately began to train them, first of all, he still had to let them know the rules of Crouching Tiger Village, and the cultivation of discipline was the thing he valued the most, here, he must have the absolute loyalty and trust of these orphans, but now to do these things, there is basically no need for him to come forward, just the previous batch of teenagers will be very good to instill this concept into the minds of these orphans.

Because the personnel this time are more complicated, Gao Huaiyuan has also formulated training plans with different intensities for them in view of their different division of labor, focusing on exercising their bodies first, so that they can adapt to the tense life here, even those girls must accept such physical exercise, he doesn't want to raise a group of soft and weak girls to eat white rice here, and the necessary exercise is indispensable.

Even Liu Er after these girls arrived at Crouching Tiger Village, they had to start to join the morning exercise team by example, in the morning exercise team in Crouching Tiger Village, forming a beautiful scenery, since these girls joined, the interest of the teenagers in Crouching Tiger Village has been raised a lot again, even some of the more lazy guys, as if they have eaten stimulants, when running and shouting slogans, their voices have been raised an octave.

This situation made Gao Huaiyuan wipe his sweat slightly, it is really not tiring to work with men and women! It seems that the decision to accept some girls here this time is still the right one, at least to make these bad boys work harder.

Although life is very busy, Gao Huaiyuan feels unusually fulfilled, and he also received letters from Gao Jian and Zhao Yuju, Gao Jian is very satisfied with Gao Huaiyuan's performance during this time, let him take care of this side of things, this year's New Year, let him go back to Shaoxing, and celebrate the New Year together.

This made Gao Huaiyuan feel a little relieved, at least he already had a place in Gao Jian's father's mind, and he would think of his son, and he also knew that he would go back for the New Year to reunite, which was a little comforting for him in another world!

As for Zhao Yuju's letter, it is nothing more than telling some thoughts about him, wanting him to go back and see, and also telling Gao Huaiyuan that now he has been honest, and under his mother's arrangement, he has started to study again, and he wants to gain a reputation in the future, so that his mother will no longer have to suffer and be tired!

Thinking about a member of the royal family, living in such a tight situation, Gao Huaiyuan felt a little incredible, so he wrote a letter back to his father and Zhao Yuju, and entrusted the person who sent the letter to Zhao Yuju to give Zhao Yuju some money.

As for Huang Yan and Zhou Hao, Shaoxing's family members all brought messages, expressing their longing for them, and from the letters exchanged between the two places, they knew that the two of them followed Gao Huaiyuan very well, they were both literate and not spoken, and they even wrote letters to their families, and they all felt quite relieved, and asked someone to send a message to Gao Huaiyuan, asking Gao Huaiyuan to take care of these two boys for them, so Gao Huaiyuan had to let these two boys repair a book for their families, after all, these two people still have their fathers and mothers, and they can't be the same as other teenagers.

After sending away the messenger, Gao Huaiyuan summed it up, looked at the season, it was time for the autumn harvest again, this year as a whole was smooth, the tenants on the old house after readjusting the tenant rent and the field, this year's motivation is not small, the field is very proper, the grain in the field is gratifying, the harvest is already inevitable, and there is no problem with collecting the tenant rent, so Gao Huaiyuan is no longer worried about this matter.

Speaking of coming here for a year, he was even too busy to even have time to go around the surrounding mountains, and he couldn't be too tired to be a man, watching all kinds of affairs on the track he booked, so he was in a good mood, so he decided to go hunting and relax before the autumn harvest, so he asked Liu Er to clean up for him, take a little time, take Huang Yan and a few others, go out of Crouching Tiger Village, and go towards the mountains in the north.

Crouching Tiger Village is more than 20 miles away from Gaojiazhuang, located in the Taolong Mountain south of Daye County, because the land is not easy to reclaim, so it will be sparsely populated, otherwise, Gao Huaiyuan would not be able to buy a large area of land around Crouching Tiger Village at such a cheap price, it is because there is no one here, and it also provides a considerable degree of cover for his secret development.

From the first time he came here, Gao Huaiyuan had a sense of déjà vu in this area, but he just couldn't remember why, this time he also happened to go to the nearby mountains to take a stroll, and by the way, he looked for the reason for this feeling.

After the group got out of the villa, they entered the mountain, with their current ability, it is not a problem to drill a mountain forest, and when Gao Huaiyuan is fine, he used the magnet to make a portable compass by himself, and when he entered the mountain, he would get lost.

This kind of hunting activity is the first time for everyone, so everyone is very excited, and they prepared bows, arrows, machetes and food early, and the excitement of singing and laughing along the way is very great, originally he didn't plan to take Liu'er to the mountains to adventure, but he couldn't withstand Liu'er's soft grinding, so he had to bring Liu'er out, after all, staying in the old house or Zhuangzi every day, anyone will feel tired, and Gao Huaiyuan is more fond of Liu'er, she muttered, and immediately agreed, anyway, these people have kung fu, It's not a problem to protect Liu'er.

Liu Er changed out of the usual skirt, put on a neat and energetic suit, wore a pair of trousers, a pair of small boots, and a short placket, which set off her tall and well-proportioned figure developed in the past two years to make it much more beautiful, and the black hair like a waterfall was pulled up high, fixed with a wooden hairpin, and wrapped in a headscarf, which set off her pretty face extremely delicate, which looked pleasing to Gao Huaiyuan's eyes, and he always felt itchy in his heart, as if it was a thing that wanted to break free from the shackles, making him want to move.

Gao Huaiyuan can be regarded as a person who has come over, he has experienced this feeling in his previous life, and when he found out that the change in his heart was unexpected, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, God! It turns out that he is a little in love with Liu'er, how good is this! After carefully examining his heart, Gao Huaiyuan found that for Liu'er, he was actually not just grateful, the two of them stayed together since he was a human being, not to mention that Liu'er herself is very gentle and virtuous, and the brighter the outfall, even if Liu'er is not beautiful, the two of them will have a good impression after being together for a long time! What's more, Liu Er is still kind to him first, Gao Huaiyuan looked at Liu Er's bouncing figure walking in front of the team, and couldn't help but feel a little crazy!
