Chapter Ninety-Nine: Taking Refuge

Li Xuan found his best clothes early this morning, saying that they were the best clothes, but they were moon-white cotton clothes, which were just his best clothes in the past, and thanks to this, when the family property was searched, the officials also looked down on it and stayed.

The old mother helped him put on his clothes neatly, his younger brother Li Zai was also dressed up, the old mother and his sister Li Ji stood at the door and watched them leave, Li Xuan looked back at his adobe house with a thatched roof, and secretly vowed to change his situation.

When the two of them came to the former Jeju Mansion, they saw eight soldiers in armor standing at the door, four with spears in their hands, and the other four with long knives at their waists, standing with bated breath and staring at the movement at the door.

"The soldier is invited, and the little Xianping Li family asks to see the Ming master." Li Xuan stepped forward and bowed. He didn't know who the leader was, so he had to salute a few people.

"What's the matter with you?" A medium-sturdy soldier walked up to him.

"My lord, my brothers are from the Li clan of Xianping Province in the former north, and they are proficient in Chinese, so I don't know if the Ming Master can hire us." Li Xuan said stubbornly, after all, in his impression, there are no unreasonable soldiers. Just to get ahead, he fought.

"You wait." The soldier commander understood his words and told him to wait. Turn around and enter on your own.

After the tea, the head of the soldier and a young man who looked like a Ming scribe walked out.

"You're the North Korean who recommended yourself?" Akito asked.

"Yes, Master Mingren, my brothers and I barely know Chinese, and I recommended myself before, and I feel abrupt, I hope you don't be surprised." Li Xuan said.

Bai Shidi was originally a member of the literary team, and has always dealt with general affairs with Ma Tao and Xu Hong, early this morning, the guards in front of the door came to report, and some North Koreans recommended themselves to the door, Ma Tao was stunned, because he was drafting a recruitment notice, after all, re-measuring the acres of land, allocating land, collecting taxes, and no local people who knew Chinese could not do it, but just after he had just finished drafting and translated by Song Zhe, this incident occurred. So Ma Tao asked Bai Shidi to deal with the matter.

"Oh, the accounts?" Bai Shidi asked.

"My lord, I know a little bit about the accounts." Lee Jae replied.

At that time, according to the rules of the family, Li Xuan was out of office, and Li Zai was responsible for the family's financial endowment, and the accounts of the acres were naturally proficient.

"Oh, you're more proficient in Chinese than your brother." Bai Shi first heard Li Zai's Chinese quite well, and it was still a mouthful of Fengyang official dialect. At this time, he believed that the Li brothers must be from a noble family.

"Thank you for the compliment." The two brothers replied.

"Come in with me." Bai Shidi walked towards the palace, and the two were just about to enter, when two guards stopped them and probed their bodies and clothes, and the other two guards were on guard with long knives. After the search was completed, the two men followed Bai Shidi into the official office.

Li Xuan entered the official office for the first time, and when he saw the old official office, he couldn't help but complain that it was still an official office in a prefecture city, so rude, and he lost the face of North Korea.

The two of them entered a side room, only to see four or five Ming people busy at the desk, a North Korean serving on the side, Bai Shidi walked in front of Ma Tao,

"Master Ma, this is the Li brother of the former Xianping Dao nobleman, who knows Chinese and knows a little about accounts."

"Oh," Ma Tao looked up at the two of them, "come over and see if this notice is the same as the original text." ”

Li Xuan and Li Zai understand that this is a consideration, if they can pass, they are basically almost, and they can become the officials of the Ming people, but if they can't pass it, they will be enough.

"Well, this should be the account of the accounts, and this should be the ...... of the personnel" After a while, Li Xuan and Li Zai pointed out five mistakes and omissions, and Song Zhe blushed, he knew that his Chinese language was okay, and it was a bit so-so to write.

Ma Tao understood at a glance that Li Xuan and Li Zai were much stronger than Song Zhe, but Li Zai's Chinese and accounts were better, and the two brothers were urgently needed talents.

"Li Zai, you stay here, draft documents, sort out accounts, pay one tael of silver a month, and there will be rewards if you do your best." Ma Tao immediately commanded.

"Thank you, sir," Li Zai was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down to thank him.

"Li Xuan, you go to the port to help first, recently our army sent troops to other counties, and you will translate with the army. The same goes for silver. Ma Tao commanded.

"Thank you for your grace." Li Xuan turned from worry to joy, just now he thought there was no hope, it was really a turn of the peak, and he was extremely satisfied with his position. His temperament just doesn't like Wen, and this time it's his heart.

Due to the complexity of the general affairs, Li Zai immediately threw himself into sorting out the accounts and acres, but Li Xuan could go home and report it, and then go to the dock to help.

Li Xuan walked home in high spirits, maybe not much money, but Li Xuan, who fell from a noble son to a slave, cherished it extraordinarily, how many times he screamed in pain, let God give him a chance, only one can, let him change his fate, maybe God really opened his eyes, he must have seized this opportunity, and it is not impossible to restore the glory of the family in the past, after all, no one cares about the rebellious past of the Li family under the Ming people, and it may even be the ladder to advancement.

Li Xuan's ecstasy is not mentioned, Zhao Lie stood by the dock at this time and also felt the joy of the North Koreans, different from yesterday, today the North Koreans work extremely hard, and when they meet the Ming soldiers, they are full of joy and bow, and they are full of joy.

Zhao Lie secretly attached, two days later, the distribution of acres of land will be released, Jeju Island except for some landlords, most of the people's hearts will be attached, then the Li Dynasty is to attack, Jeju people themselves have to fight with them, this is the wonderful use of Juntian's big killing weapon, and then move tens of thousands of Han people, the big event is decided. As for the only gentry landlord who was damaged, did Zhao Lie need to care. Cho Yeol believes that Jeju will be his foundation at that time.

In two days, all the cavalry was transported ashore, the artillery and baggage were also shipped, and the merchant fleet returned to Shidao under the leadership of Li Hu, while Muñoz was responsible for controlling the remaining warships.

Wanji led the advance personnel from Thiago of the Craftsman Battalion, Sans and Lin Cang of the shipyard, Gu Yan and Ricardo of the racecourse, Wu Li and Wu Bo of the refugee camp, to select a site near Jeju City, because the shipyard can only be selected near the port, and it can also rely on the protection of the port army, so Sans and Lin Cang began to explore the water depth and reef situation within ten miles to the east and west of the port, so as to determine the final address.

The refugees were transported by sea, so they could only choose a site near Jeju, after all, they were drifting by sea and were weak, so they had to find a place to rest nearby. Therefore, Wu Li and Wu Bo were also busy and checked near Jeju City. After all, in more than 20 days, the first batch of personnel will arrive. At the very least, the camp had to be set up, and the specific roads, public toilets, and schools had to wait for the arrival of the brigade before they were gradually established.

Gu Yan and Ricardo of the racecourse set out with Li Lu's eastward expeditionary team, and once they took Chengshan, they immediately seized the racecourse.

First of all, it must be a place where there is water, the artisan camp uses a lot of water, and it has to be a little secluded to facilitate secrecy, and secondly, it has to be far away from the horse farm, after all, it is not easy to frighten the horse farm when testing guns and guns. So Thiago set out to investigate, under the protection of fifty guards.

Zhao Lie and Wan Ji were busy building barracks for the army and navy, after all, this was the transit point of their own forces, to the south to deter the East China Sea and the South China Sea, to the east, to the Wa Kingdom, Ezo Land, and to the northwest, it was Liaodong of Jiannu. The garrison here will be the main force of the army, so that it is convenient to reinforce Zhao Lie's territory everywhere at any time, so the military camp and water camp must be built large enough, in addition, the layout of the fort must also be considered together with the barracks, seaports, and shipyards, after all, the forts shoulder the mission of guarding the port, the barracks, and the shipyard.
