In the next few days, Chang Runing and his staff inspected the warehouse, account books, and gradually handed over, and Zhao Lie and others were waiting for Chang Runing's orders after taking over in the Acropolis. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Three days later, Liao Cheng rushed to Linqing to take office after the handover, and Chang Runing sounded the drum to gather the generals.

"Since the restoration of Jinghaiwei, due to the limited money and food allocated by the capital division, the acropolis that should have been rebuilt has dragged on until now, the southern wall of the city is broken with bricks, the rammed earth is tilted, and there is a danger of overturning, and the south city wall began to be rebuilt in mid-March this year, and all the military households of 5,000 households were requisitioned here to renovate the city wall." Chang Runing's first order did not surprise a few thousand households, and this matter has been delayed for several years.

Last winter, Denglai Dusi allocated 35,000 taels of silver to renovate the dilapidated Jinghaiwei Acropolis, and it was impossible to start construction in winter, and it was inevitable that spring would begin, but they were also the most headache, and the spring requisition personnel would inevitably delay the agricultural time, and their fields would also be greatly affected here, after all, they were the big landlords of their own thousands of households, and the acres of land were cultivated by driving military households.

Even if a few people are unwilling, they can only agree with a bang.

"Zhao Lie, I heard that there are a lot of Liao people in your thousand households, and I will order you to send 3,000 people to build a city here." Chang Runing ordered. When the other thousands of households heard it, okay, these two are on the same page again.

Zhao Lie looked at Chang Runing with a smile, and said in his heart, he was very anxious, and he didn't want to delay for a moment.

"My lord, the refugees in Liaodong in this office are all the former Denglai Governor Lord Wu explained the resettlement of his father and subordinates, and said that he will continue to visit us in the future to see if we are properly resettled, and it is feasible to levy Liaomin to build a city today, but the Liaomin must be under the control of thousands of households, and they must be fed and clothed, and they cannot be beaten and scolded wantonly. Otherwise, the Liao people will be damaged too much, and Master Wu will know that if he is blamed, his sins will be unforgivable. "Zhao Lie said in his heart, no matter what tricks you have, Liaomin can only be under my control.

Chang Runing looked at Zhao Lie coldly, what he planned was to take advantage of this opportunity to build a city. The Liao people were requisitioned to build a city, and the Liao people suffered a large number of casualties because of hunger and fatigue, so there was a civil uprising, and it was logical to deal with Zhao Lie, he just had to sit and wait for the civil unrest to happen.

However, Zhao Lie's reaction still made him feel wrong, what happened in the past few days was not the attitude that a subordinate should have towards his boss. Could it be that Zhao Lie knew something, so he was-for-tat everywhere, and in an instant, he rejected this idea, impossible, his true intention to take office, except for himself, Yang Jingtang knew.

"Ben will always be sympathetic to the people, and the Liao people came here to build a city. Of course, Ben will be kind, and your advice will be approved. "What Chang Runing wants is for the Liao people to be under Zhao Lie's control. Of course, he didn't believe that Zhao Lie was a bodhisattva, these Liao people were just the labor needed by Zhao Lie to build ships, build roads, build ports, smelt iron, etc., and it was good to starve and not die.

Arrived at the Acropolis. As long as there are some casualties among the Liao people, and he sends people to provoke a little in the middle, there will definitely be civil unrest, so he will wantonly squander the people's strength, causing a large number of casualties among the people. Therefore, the construction of the city is delayed, and other crimes are really not too much.

A few thousands of households walked out of the official office listlessly, and said in their hearts that they didn't know how many percent of their fields would be able to catch up with the agricultural time this time, and this was all money.

"This year is miserable, and being able to cultivate half of the acres of land is blessed by the Buddha." Tang Rong, who was stout from the thousands of households, complained in a muffled voice.

"Old Tang, if you think about it, cultivate half of the field, if you force the military households to cultivate and build a city, believe it or not, the military households will make trouble." Fan Youlu, a thin middle-aged thousand-household, sneered.

"Okay, stop bickering, I'll have a poor year this year." The former Qianhu Wang Geng drooped his eyelids and said, looking very unenergetic.

"Brother Zhao is still enviable, you don't need to use the military." The obscene and thin right thousand households of the thousand households Ma Youjun said with a smile, he is really envious and jealous, who makes the family have a good father, so far the generals of the Jinghai Guards have put what Zhao Lie did on Shidao on the body of his father Zhao Haiming.

"Brother, the brothers know that you have a lot of money, and I don't know if you can help me and others." Ma Youjun asked with a grin.

"Yes, brother, this spring repair of the city, but it will cost me my life, I don't know what good way my brother can do." Wang Geng finally had some spirit and echoed his words.

"Everyone, I can help, brother, but the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, what benefits can you give me." Zhao Lie said with a smile.

"Brother, but if you have any requests, I will answer them." Tang Rong patted his chest very imposingly. Others also echoed it, this is a door.

"I can give another 2,000 men, but the money is good, and you can get some food." Zhao Lie said that he did not sympathize with these people, but he thought that the military households, who were originally very embarrassed, may have a very miserable life this year, and it is good to be able to cultivate most of the acres in the spring, and the spring famine in three or four months of the year may be even longer.

Liao people don't care, Zhao Lie is now supporting them with money, and it is a good thing to come out to repair the city to loosen their muscles and bones, so why not win over a few colleagues.

"As I said, as long as my brother can replace the people from thousands of households, I will have some grain." Tang Rong looked very happy.

"It's still Brother Tang's refreshment." Zhao Lie gave a thumbs up.

The other three also nodded in agreement to give out some rice grain. The two parties reached an agreement on this, and the atmosphere was warm for a while, and Fan Youlu proposed that a few people go to the restaurant for a drink, and he invited him.

"Wait, I don't know how adults feel about this." Zhao Lie asked.

When several people thought of the conflict between Chang Runing and Zhao Lie, they were speechless, and the scene was cold.

"How about adults, our military families also have families to support." Tang Rong was still arrogant and said dissatisfied.

"Brother Tang is mighty." Zhao Lie said with a smile, it was good that they and Chang Runing had a dirty relationship because of this.

Zhao Lie led everyone back to Shidao.

Zhao Lie's first order was to let Wu Qun select 5,000 Liao people from the refugee camp, and now there are only more than 20,000 Liao people in the refugee camp.

Zhang Huan walked home with brisk steps, as the new boatswain of the Weiqing, Zhang Huan is now proud of the spring breeze, with a monthly salary of five taels of silver, with dozens of sailors, and is also one of the dozens of boatswain, the most important thing is that the future captain and first mate will be promoted from the boatswain, and the future is promising.

Looking at his own few large tiled houses, Zhang Huan hurriedly tidied up the uniform on his body, and now Zhang Huan is also a middle-level military strongman, and he also has a light blue outfit of a broken army general. This time, the Weiqing anchored on Dashanzi Island, and Zhang Huan, who had not returned home for a year, asked for leave to visit relatives, and the captain Muñoz approved, so this trip home was made.

When he arrived at the gate of his own courtyard, Zhang Huan was just about to push the door, the door opened from the inside, Zhang Wushi walked out with a vegetable basket, and saw Zhang Huan blinking in disbelief, and looked closely.

"Mother, my son is back to see you." Zhang Huan said loudly.

"Son, you're back." Zhang Wu took two steps forward and hugged his eldest son, who was not necessarily in the past few years, and whimpered and said.

Zhang Huan, who thought he was already a boatswain and commanded dozens of men and horses, looked around embarrassedly, ahem, fortunately no one saw it.

"Mother, isn't it good for my son, don't cry." Zhang Huan's eyes were also a little red, of course he understood his mother's fear for him for a year.

"Huan'er, my mother can finally sleep well today." Zhang Wu let go of his hand and wiped away his tears.

Zhang Huan helped Zhang Wu into the house, there was no one at home, his father had not returned from fishing, and his two younger brothers were still in school.

Zhang Huan hurriedly put a package in Zhang Wu's hand, and Zhang Wu opened it and saw that it was thirty taels of silver with five taels and one ingot.

"This, Huan'er, this is all your money?" Zhang Wu asked excitedly.

"Mother, this is last year's salary, this month's son is already a boatswain, and his monthly salary is five taels of silver." Zhang Huan was slightly proud.

"This, Huan'er, you earn more than your father." Zhang Wu said in surprise.

"Mother, next year the child can get back at least fifty taels of silver. You can fill your house with these money. Zhang Huan knows that his family is only himself, his younger brothers are still young, his father is only more than ten taels of silver a year, and a few children plus family expenses can't save a few taels of silver a year, which is relatively tight, not as good as the four Cheng Ding of the Blue Three family and the family is rich.

"Huan'er, you used your silver money to renovate the house last time, and now these silver mothers have saved it for you, and you are also old, so you will have to say daughter-in-law soon, how to make it without money." Zhang Wu said.

"Mother, my son is not in a hurry, now my son is only twenty." Zhang Huan's face was slightly red.

"You're not in a hurry, my mother is in a hurry." Zhang Wu glanced at Zhang Huan, twenty years old is not young, the two of them had already given birth to Zhang Huan when they were twenty years old.

Zhang Huan was speechless and could only obey.

In the evening, Lao Zhang returned home tired and had a surprise to see his eldest son, but he also brought a piece of news.

"There are now less than 20,000 Liao people left in Shidao, and in the end, only thousands of widows and orphans are left, and all the rest are shipped to other places to develop." Lao Zhang's face was sad, and Zhao Lie only told him to go to other places to develop fields, and did not say that he would sail overseas. "In the future, there will not be such a large demand for marine fish, so Qianhu decided to reduce the number of fishermen."

"Dad, what should we do?" Zhang Wu interrupted Lao Zhang's words and asked eagerly. The family depends on Lao Zhang's income, and if he loses it, he will return to the embarrassing days of the past, and he can't count on the eldest son.

"You girl, after listening to me," Lao Zhang glared at Zhang Wu, "It said above, you can join the sailor, and you can go to other places to open up." ”

The room was silent for a while, after all, the whole family went overseas, this is a big decision, living in Shidao for many years, it is certain to leave rashly.

"Dad, join the water master, can you do it at your age?" Zhang Huan asked, the sailor strictly ordered not to expose Beihua Island and Jeju Island, so Zhang Huan didn't dare to say, but he was worried about whether his two younger brothers could survive the long voyage to Beihua Island.

"It's okay to be under forty-five, but your father is forty-two this year, and he said he can get on the merchant ship." Lao Zhang said. The expansion of the naval division was imminent, and there was a shortage of manpower, so Zhao Lie had no choice but to transfer the elite soldiers of the naval division to the warships, and the number of years for merchant sailors was greatly relaxed, after all, it was also a shortage of talents.

Zhang Huan's heart was wide, the danger of merchant ships was very small, and it was okay not to encounter a super hurricane. The family discussed for a long time or entered the water division, after all, the Zhang family is not a farmer, and they don't know how to cultivate the fields. (To be continued.) )
