In the shack area by the canal, Chen Xin stood in Dai Zhenggang's original shack again, and there were more than 20 people standing in front of him. These people are all fellow villagers of Dai Zhenggang from Yanggu, they have been here for more than ten days, and they have been waiting for Chen Xin to come back.

"Lord Qianhu, there are twenty-one people here in Yanggu, only two of them have families, and the others are singles, and the singles from several nearby villages are here."

Chen Xin saw the tenant Huang Yuan, and many of them were slender men he had seen before, Chen Xin nodded and smiled at them, Huang Yuan and the others were at a loss, and they didn't know whether to kneel or not, now this Brother Chen can't be called, I heard that he is no longer Mr. Ledger, what is a thousand households now.

Chen Xin asked that Huang Yuandao: "Didn't Huang Yuan, didn't your family give birth to a baby?" Did you bring it? ”

Huang Yuan said a little depressed: "The baby didn't bring him alive, and he died of illness with his mother." ”

Chen Xin didn't speak again, patted Huang Yuan's shoulder, the mortality rate in this era is too high, and many people will die in the winter, freezing to death, starvation, and disease, and the value of human life is depreciating sharply.

"You come so far and are willing to follow me Chen Xin, I will definitely not treat you badly in the future, but good or bad must be said in front, where I go with me, you may have to fight bandits, fight Japanese bandits, and even fight Tartars, one or five dollars a month for money, thirty taels for you if you are injured, arrange to do other things, you still have food to eat every month, and thirty taels when you die, give you a family, if you have a baby, I will raise you until you are sixteen years old, and let him study." If there are people who are afraid of death, come out now, I will give you two taels of silver for the travel expenses, and you can go back to Yanggu now. ”

A group of people looked at each other, but no one came out, and they all looked at Chen Xin.

Chen Xin said with satisfaction: "Okay, if you can come so far, I won't choose it, I want it, if you can be a soldier, you can be a soldier, if you can't be a soldier, you can be a soldier." ”

Dai Zhenggang happily agreed on the side, he was worried that someone would not be selected, so he sent it back. If the first two or five dollars are not deducted, it is enough to support the family, in fact, Dai Zhenggang can see that his fellow villagers are worse than the fifty carefully selected slender men, and Chen Xin can be regarded as giving himself face if he collects it.

"You haven't thanked the Thousand Households." Dai Zhenggang hurriedly reminded the stunned fellow villagers that he had been with Song Wenxian for a while, and he had learned a lot of etiquette along the way to Beijing.

A group of people hurriedly knelt down, "Thank you, Lord Qianhu!" ”

After Chen Xin asked them to get up, he said to Dai Zhenggang: "Let's set off in two days at most, in these two days, you make the personnel roster, buy two big wooden barrels, let them bathe one by one, clean up the lice and fleas on their bodies, I want to check before getting on the boat, and if I don't clean up, I will walk to Weihai by myself, those bedding and the like, don't bring them on the boat then, I have ordered new ones." ”

Dai Zhenggang nodded and said, "I know, my lord, like the slender man in Zhangjiawan, I know how to do it." It's just that if you can't get new clothes for a while, you won't be able to catch this lice. ”

"I'm going to urge Liu Minyou to get clothes, what did he do in this clothing store, it's been two days, and dozens of clothes haven't been finished yet, so I'll hand them over to other clothing stores." Chen Xin said dissatisfiedly.

After arranging this, Chen Xin went back to the city, and Dai Zhenggang took a few people to find a wooden shop outside the city and buy big wooden barrels. Chen Xin took the sea dog straight into the city, and after arriving in Tianjin, the sea dog no longer took those slender men, after all, he was young, and his strength and figure could not compare to those people, Chen Xin was worried that they would not be able to convince the public, so for the time being, let Zhu Guobin and Lu Chuanzong take it, Zhang Dahui could talk and talk, so he helped buy some things in the city, and by the way, he passed on a message or something, and the sea dog became Chen Xin's personal bodyguard.

The sea dog followed behind Chen Xin and asked Chen Xin, "Big brother, will we all go to Weihai with you?" ”

"Do you want to go?"

Hai Gouzi scratched his head: "Of course I want to, if I don't follow you, I don't know what to do all day long, and I don't want to make clothes every day, so it's fun to follow your eldest brother." ”

Chen Xin said with a smile: "Let's do murder in the future, it's not as good as before, it's time to come out with real skills, and I may have to lose my life if you want to live in peace, I'll leave you in Tianjin, and you also need manpower in the shop here." ”

"No, anyway, I'll follow you, big brother, and your life is also saved by you, and if you fall it, you will lose it."

"Hey." Chen Xin sighed and walked together with his arms around the sea dog's shoulders.

"Then whether Brother Liu will go to Weihai or not?"

"I'll have to ask him if he wants to go."

Hai Gouzi suddenly became interested: "Big brother, I heard from the neighbors that Brother Liu and Pan Jinlian are not clear, Shen Lou scolds the street at the door every day, just like that, Brother Liu has not quit the Shen family, do you say that Brother Liu really likes the broom star." ”

"What nonsense are you kid talking about, what kind of broom star, Shen Lou stole things by himself, what's the matter with other people, who does your brother Liu love to see, you kid talks nonsense, in case your brother Liu really marries this Pan Jinlian, she won't give you small shoes to wear."

The fur dog scratched his head and smirked, "Then I won't talk about it." ”

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Liu Minyou returned to the yard after work, this time Xiao Jiahua didn't call him a housekeeper, because Chen Xin told her that she was going to Dengzhou soon, so she didn't take this yard seriously and gave up the plan to renovate. The two current stores are not used as shops, one is used as a living room, and the other is used as a bedroom. Chen Xin arranged for Xiao Jiahua to live in the store, although Xiao Jiahua was unwilling, but he didn't dare to disobey the master's will. She guessed that Liu Min didn't want to see her, and she didn't give Liu Min a good face, and when she saw him come in, she snorted and went back to the house.

Liu Minyou was angry for the past two days, went straight into Chen Xin's house, saw him packing his things, and asked him, "Are you really going to Weihai so soon?" ”

"I'll leave tomorrow, the Weihe River is not all frozen yet, I have to hurry up this time, otherwise I will have to take the land route, brother, you can go with me too."

Liu Minyou is still hesitating, since Chen Xin got the position of one hundred households, he has been thinking about whether to go, he is an otaku who is Ansheng, the most reluctant to leave the familiar environment, now he has been in Tianjin for a few months, the neighborhood gets along well, and the business is on the right track, so he is really reluctant to give up.

"Well, I haven't figured it out yet."

Chen Xin persuaded: "The canal is not open in winter, your clothes business is average, it is better to go to Weihai with me, there must be many things to do just now, I can't be busy alone." ”

Liu Minyou listened and said: "You have so many people going, what is there to be busy." ”

"They are all newcomers, and there are workplace veterans like you, who basically have no management experience, and they are all miscellaneous when they go."

"In fact, there are still a lot of talents, so Shen Li will ......" Liu Minyou suddenly stopped and didn't say anything, lest Chen Xin catch it.

Sure enough, "Hey, by the way, what is Shen Li and you about?" I can just run away. ”

Liu Minyou said angrily: "You think it's like you abducting and trafficking people, she manages really well, she learns things quickly, she is very organized, and she can also put forward good opinions on the selection of clothes." ”

Chen Xin shrugged his shoulders: "What if she has the ability, at most she will be a secretary for you, don't even think about it, do you think Lao Cai and Lu You will listen to her, just because she is a woman, they will not pay attention to him." ”

Liu Minyou knows that it is also the truth, if he really wants to let Shen Li take charge of things, Lao Cai and the others will definitely unite to give her small shoes to wear, and in the end they have to be replaced.

Chen Xin continued to persuade: "You can just use this woman as a worker, I see your current appearance, most of you still have a good impression of her, don't have anything else to do with her, after all, she is a married woman, we don't have the time to pay attention to that Shen Lou." Don't talk about her, it's still the same thing just now, come with me to Weihai and help me stand still. ”

Liu Minyou hesitated and said, "Then, what about the clothing store?" ”

"Let Lao Cai take care of it, everyone will not change, these people are all dragging their families, and I don't plan to take them away, so the clothing store will be placed here as an office."

"Lao Cai doesn't worry about me, he is a little greedy, and Lu You doesn't dare to contradict him. Zhou Laifu is more assured. ”

Chen Xindao: "Zhou Laifu is Zhou Laifu, this clothing store can make some money, and I have to come to Tianjin for sea trade procurement, and next year will be spring, if you want this Pan Jinlian, you will come back to Tianjin, and help me buy some goods by the way." ”

Liu Min said angrily: "Director Chen really treats me as a brick, where I need to move." You know that I don't like to change places the most, and you always want to toss me. ”

Chen Xin smiled, "How dare you, when did I, the director, contradict Boss Liu, but only Boss Liu is the most capable, and the so-called capable people work hard." ”

Liu Minyou is not too worried that Chen Xin will go to Weihai alone, after all, it is a completely unfamiliar place, and he should help this friend who depends on each other anyway. "Okay, then I'll go with you first, there's nothing to pack, just bring some clothes." Liu Minyou remembered something again, "By the way, that Zhou Shifa, the original deputy general Qian went to the Fifth Military Camp, I heard that you were a thousand households, and I want to follow you." ”

"Zhou Shifa?" Chen Xin thought of the family who was selected for the money, "But his wife is in Tianjin, how can he go?" Besides, isn't it more promising for Qian Zhongxuan to go to Jingying, why follow me. ”

"His mother passed away last month, and he doesn't want to follow Vice General Qian, I guess I admire your character, ask me to help him talk about it."

Chen Xin smiled and said: "If you come to sarcasm me again, then take it, there are always two brushes when you are a housekeeper." ”

Chen Xin persuaded Liu Minyou, very happy, Liu Minyou is serious in his work, and has management experience, although he is a little verbose, but he can still help himself a lot. And he is the only one who can fully believe him.

"Boss Liu, then say it, tomorrow you will arrange the things in the shop. However, Zhou Laifu and they are all outsiders, I advise you to give Lu You some benefits, this person is still righteous, so he should have an Infernal Affairs inside. ”

"I don't have as many fancy intestines as you, and a few people have to be in infernal affairs. I will pay Zhou Laifu a little more, Lao Cai and Lu You are not familiar with him, and Shen Li also knows how to settle accounts, so he has no loopholes to drill. ”

Chen Xin said with admiration: "Brother Liu's arrangement is deeply balanced by the way of checks and balances, admire and admire." ”

Liu Minyou shook his head and said: "You don't come here, I don't have the heart to study checks and balances, so you just left, don't you talk to the mother-in-law of the Zhao family?" ”

"Of course I want to say, I'll go early tomorrow morning, and I'll say goodbye to Zhao Xiang, anyway, the family matter is decided, and I will get married next year." Chen Xin said with a long breath, he still likes Zhao Xiang a lot, although he is a little younger, but he is so old if he is not married in this era, and he is already a few children in his twenties.

Liu Min nodded a little: "Miss Zhao looks gentle and virtuous, you treat others well in the future, don't let that Xiao Jiahua bully her." ”

Chen Xin smiled, this Miss Zhao is not so easy to bully, Xiao Jiahua's level is probably not enough, but he also agreed, took out a piece of paper from under the pillow, and said to Liu Minyou: "This is my personnel arrangement, Boss Liu will take a look and give some opinions." ”

Liu Minyou took a look at it, and wrote a bunch of names on the paper with a brush.

Jingshi: Zhang Dahui

Tianjin procurement: Lao Cai

Guards: Sea Dogs, two slender men

Sixty-five men in the corps

There are five armors, twelve people for each armor, one armor commander, one fireman, two soldiers for soldiers, and one captain for each army.

The team is positive: Zhu Guobin, one standard-bearer, one guard

Deputy of the combat team: Dai Zhenggang, Lu Chuanzong

Forty sailors in force

Sailors: Jiang Jisheng (Scar)

Deputy of the sailors: Qin Lufang

Craftsman Chief: Tang Zuoxiang

Civil: Liu Minyou

Foreign Affairs: Song Wenxian

Liu Minyou was surprised: "You even figured out the organizational structure, you plan to put Zhang Dahui alone in Jingshi, can he do it alone?" ”

"Okay, this kid is very slippery, this time in Jingshi thanks to him for an important news, now I won't go for the time being, wait for the spring to talk, then you can also adjust, let him buy a maid to cook and wash his clothes."

"Then I'm in charge of civil affairs, do you have a maid?"

"No, at most, find a middle-aged woman in the family of the slender man to clean and cook."

Liu Minyou touched his nose, and the treatment of the Beijing Office is better than that of the locality. "What the hell am I in charge of this civil society?"

"Except for the army, everything else."

"For example."

"For example, building houses, farming, buying food, buying materials, hospitality, giving birth to children, birth, old age, sickness and death, entertainment and leisure, women's work, ......"

Liu Min sweated like rain.
