Chapter 213 The ghost of the knife cries and returns to the village

"Brother, what kind of birdman is that?" Ruan Xiaoqi asked. Wang Lun was talking to outsiders just now, he has always been a fast-talking character, and he didn't intervene for a long time, and when the people left, he immediately opened his mouth to inquire.

"The younger brother of Tokyo Tobe Shangshu Houmeng!" Wang Lun said with a smile, seeing that the leaders who had already gathered and sat down, with a puzzled look on his face, Wang Lun glanced back at Wen Huanzhang, and motioned for the chief military advisor to introduce this person.

"This person's name is Hou Fa, the governor of Mingzhou on Liangzhejiang Road, and he went up the mountain at this time to come for Zhao'an!" Wen Huanzhang said slowly.

"This guy is blind, dare to persuade my brother to surrender to the court! It's not good for me to be happy here, so I sent it up and told those big turbans to take care of it, and I couldn't sleep well! Suddenly, Li Kui scolded.

"Only now the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, all of them are treacherous and evil, and they deceive Shengcong. It's better than my direct dyeing to make soap, how can it be clean! Lu Zhishen also sighed with emotion, he knew that Wang Lun would not recruit An, but when he talked about this topic at this time, he inadvertently brought out his feelings.

With these two starters, all the leaders scolded loudly, only Qin Ming, who had a hot temper, didn't say a word, and Huang Xin beside him whispered: "Enguan must look away, Brother Wang Lun is unwilling to recruit An, when I was in Erlong Mountain, you and I didn't know it!" Thinking that I was framed by Song Jiang, at this time it was not tolerated by the imperial court, but fortunately Wang Lun's brother rescued him twice, and his kindness was greater than the sky. ”

Qin Ming nodded, his face calmed down, and said loudly: "Qin Ming has a place to live at this time, and it is all given by his brother!" That being the case, my brother said that if you recruit An, you will recruit An, and if you don't recruit An, you won't recruit An! ”

As soon as Qin Ming finished speaking, he saw Wang Jin and Yang Zhi in wheelchairs sighing at each other, their faces full of vicissitudes, and they seemed to be quite touched.

But at this time, Tang Bin smiled and said: "My brother doesn't want to recruit An, and our brothers will live happily in this water pool, but I don't know whose support it is." Running up the hill with nothing to do, but it's not funny? ”

"His brother's life in the capital is not good, he has the leisure to come to my place to play!" Sun Ding, who rarely speaks on such occasions, spoke.

When everyone heard this, they all became interested and asked him how Hou Meng was not happy, Sun Ding smiled and said: "I think that Zhao Guanjia had privately greeted Meng that day, what kind of person is this Cai Jing, Hou Meng replied, 'So that Jing can correct his mind, although the ancient sages can add it'." The official family thought so, so they asked Hou Meng to secretly serve Cai Jing, who knew that this matter actually made Cai Jing hear about it, and he hated Hou Meng so much! Although this matter is confidential, it has spread all over the Tokyo officialdom, and I don't know whose mouth it is coming from! ”

In this way, this Hou Meng dared to tell the truth, but now he is unable to protect himself, and he also said that he would give his brother a fortune. It's a wonder in the world! Zhu Wu sighed.

"It's just perfunctory to him, so I can fight for some buffer space! Please keep this wealth for himself! Wang Lun expressed his attitude.

Xiao Jiasui, who had been silent since Hou Fa entered the hall, suddenly said: "This new Yunzhou Taishou, won't it be this person?" ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. I heard Wang Lun sigh: "It is very likely that this is the case!" That Hou Meng is far away in Tokyo, and having Cai Jing staring at him is enough to disturb him, where is there any other idle business? In Xiao Daguan's words, such an abnormal behavior can be explained. It is very likely that I learned about my cottage through Wang Yu called Tong Guan, and it seems that this Hou family has a lot to do with Tong Guan! ”

Wang Lun remembered that the governor of Yunzhou in the original trajectory should be Chen Wenzhao, and Wu Song avenged his brother Wu Dalang at that time. Killed Ximen Qing, when the case was sent to him, he saw the joint, only sentenced Wu Song lightly, and sent him to Mengzhou, which is not far from Beijing.

It seems that not only has the things on the rivers and lakes become unrecognizable and confusing, but even the promotion in the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty has changed because of his arrival, as soon as he thought of this, Wang Lun only felt that time was pressing, and said to the leaders: "The top priority of the cottage in the future is to train an elite army, this matter is related to the future life and death of Liangshan, Wang Lun is here to ask you brothers!" After speaking, he got up and bowed to everyone.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly got up and returned the salute, and said in unison: "Dare not do your best!" ”

At this time, Wang Jin, who had been silent, said: "I have read the training rules issued by the owner of the village, I don't know who wrote it, he is really a genius in the world!" ”

"It's all written by Xiao Daguan and Zhu Junshi!" Wang Lun said with a smile. To be affirmed by the No. 1 leader in the forbidden army, Wang Lun can be regarded as completely relieved.

Xiao Jiasui and Zhu Wu glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "Without my brother's outline, where can I write it?" We really don't dare to take credit! ”

Wang Lun smiled, did not continue the topic, just instructed everyone to train well, and then introduced the five new leaders such as Tiedi Xian Ma Lin, Sai Rengui Guo Sheng, Jiao Tong Wei out of the cave, Tong Meng of the River Mirage, and Hou Jian of the gibbon, and reported the news of Li Jun's injury in the mixed river dragon, and asked Song Wan to immediately hold a banquet to wash the dust for these five heroes.

After the big event was discussed, it happened to be lunchtime, Wang Lun invited the leaders to take a seat, and everyone was inevitably polite again, and it took more than an hour to disperse the wine feast. Wang Lun has been accumulating one thing in his heart, and he stopped Meng Kang and wanted to go to the shipyard under the mountain with him, Meng Kang said: "How long has my brother not been to my younger brother's shipyard, I thought you had forgotten here!" ”

Wang Lun Ha smiled and said, "But I was negligent, brother, don't blame!" In the future, I will inevitably run to you! ”

What Meng Kang said just now was a joke, he knew that Wang Lun was also busy, and all the affairs of the cottage were pressed on him, and this time he went out for several months, at this time, he was afraid that he hadn't slept well, where would he bother him with these little things, and he suddenly heard Wang Lun say this, and hurriedly asked: "Brother wants to expand the water army?" ”

Wang Lun shook his head and smiled, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly found that there were many small workers carrying wood there, Wang Lun asked, "It takes a long time to get water?" ”

"I don't want my brother to speak, it's an insider's word! Yes, this wood must be dried to dry the moisture inside, so that it can be of great use, otherwise the new wood will be used to build a ship, and the ship will not be long in error! The timber that my brother saw was all the best timber that had been stored for at least five or seven years, and it was copied from a big family in Zhongdu County, Yunzhou, which specialized in the timber business. ”

Wang Lun nodded and said, "These timbers are all left, I want to build a sea ship!" I wonder if you have any good ideas, brother? ”

"Build a ship in this lake?" Meng Kang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's useless to fight small, it can't withstand the wind and waves at sea, and it can't pass the Beiqing River if it is big, it should be the biggest limit of 2,000 materials!" ”

Wang Lun has been in this era for a year and a half, and he also has some understanding of weights and measures at this time. According to the load capacity of one material is one stone meter, and one stone meter is about 60 kilograms, then the load capacity of two thousand materials is 120,000 kilograms, that is, about 120 tons. It is one of the smaller medium-sized ships of this era.

It's just that Meng Kang is an expert in shipbuilding, since he said that two thousand materials are the limit that Beiqinghe can bear, Wang Lun is convinced, but secretly sighs, if there is a shipyard near the sea, then there is no need to think about these problems.

"If you build a sea ship with 2,000 materials, how much does it cost?" Wang Lun asked.

Meng Kang replied: "The cost of shipbuilding is nothing more than materials and labor, and now the wood is in front of me, and there is no need to buy it, and the shipwrights are all copycats, and there are few expenses!" It's just that this stock of wood runs out, and when you go out to buy it, it's expensive! Some parts of the sea ship are made of special materials, and the general wood is difficult to do, such as a kind of ebony wood produced in Qinzhou, Guangxi Road, which is most suitable for the rudder of tens of thousands of large ships, which is worth hundreds of runs in this state, due to transportation difficulties, when it arrives at the seaside, the price will immediately rise ten times! ”

Wang Lun looked back at the warehouse and asked, "The timber in stock is enough to make a few 2,000-material ships?" Do you still need to buy special wood outside? ”

Meng Kang estimated and said: "This is not necessary, after all, it is only a sea ship of two thousand materials, according to the younger brother, it should be okay to hit five, but six is a bit tight, but the younger brother has never built a sea ship, and there is no ship sample (drawing) in his hand, so he has to go down the mountain to invite a few old shipwrights who are used to building sea ships to go up the mountain!" ”

"Do you want to go to Fujian to ask for someone?" Wang Lun was stunned for a moment and asked. If you want to say that the shipbuilding industry is the most developed place in this era, it belongs to Fujian Road.

"If my brother wants to build a big ship with ten thousand materials, he has to go to Fujian, but these two thousand sea ships don't even need to go to Mingzhou, Zhejiang, just one trip to Dengzhou! If the elder brother is in a hurry, the younger brother will go to look for the old boatman! Meng Kang said.

"It's just right, you go to Du Qian to support a hundred taels of gold, and you must invite a few masters to come back! Bring more people and stay safe all the way! If you have any trouble in Dengzhou, you will go to Dengyun Mountain to find your uncle and nephew! Wang Lun instructed.

Meng Kang nodded in response, and immediately asked his subordinates to seal the wood, and said to Wang Lun: "Little brother will leave tomorrow, brother don't worry!" ”

Wang Lun nodded, and suddenly saw a bloodstained man running in front at this time, and the two brothers Zhu Gui and Zhu Fu followed behind. When Wang Lun saw this man, he "chuckled" in his heart, and secretly exclaimed: "Wu Song is in danger!" ”

But he asked who this person was? It turned out to be Lin Chong's registered apprentice, Cao Zheng, who was transferred to Yanggu County to open a store, who knew that he suddenly appeared at this time, and he was covered with blood, how could he not be surprised? Seeing this Cao Zheng running to Wang Lun, he knelt down and cried: "Brother, the younger brother is incompetent, he broke thirty-seven brothers last night, and the younger brother came back overnight to report the news, and asked the elder brother to avenge the brothers!" ”

Wang Lun saw that his blood-stained clothes were stained, and hurriedly said: "Brother, what is going on, you can tell me in detail!" Don't worry, these thirty-seven people are all cottage brothers, no matter what, I, Wang Lun, will avenge them to comfort the souls in heaven! Also, my brother Wu Song is okay at this time? ”

Cao Zheng wanted to cry without tears, his eyes were red like blood, he stabilized his mind at the moment, and finally told the ins and outs of the matter in 1510. (To be continued......)
