Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Soldiers

Sending away the eldest brother's horse gang, Yang Meng was also relieved for a few days, but he didn't expect that in the past few days, outside the gate of Yang's Wuzhuang, there were three or four hundred mountain people.

I asked Ding Baojun, these people are still related to themselves, after the last robbery, they didn't let go of their swordsmen for a three-day holiday, these people are all young people in their village, and they came to Yangjia Wuzhuang to make a living.

Now that his own business has not yet embarked on the right road, it is also a burden to raise more people, Yang Meng wanted to let them go, but seeing them in tattered clothes, he was a little unbearable.

"Go find Wei Huozi!"

I can only ask Wei Huozi about this matter, looking at the clothes of these people, the Zhuang people account for the majority, and this matter has nothing to do with Wei Huozi.

"Third master, are you looking for me?"

Wei Huozi is cunning, he obviously saw that those mountain people were young and strong, but he just didn't breathe.

"How did these people come here, you won't know the way! What we are doing is a knife licking blood, you let them come, in case they die, what will the family do? ”

These are all strong laborers, Yang Meng has also understood these days, farming in Yunnan, except for those rich family cattle and horses, most of them rely on manpower, these young and strong are the cattle and horses in the family, in case of death, the harvest in the field will be reduced, the harvest will be reduced, the whole family will starve, and the family will starve to death one after another.

"Third master, these people all have brothers in their families, and their parents are also strong, although they can mix food, they can only barely fill their stomachs, such a person, it is difficult to marry a daughter-in-law. Last time I went back to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law, these cubs were red-eyed, didn't this happen? ”

Wei Huozi said this happily, and it was a good thing that so many people came to defect, but Yang Meng couldn't be happy.

"What if you die? Do you want to marry a female ghost as a daughter-in-law? ”

"If they come, they are not afraid of death, if they die, the elder brother, younger brother, sister, and sister in the family can live a good life, they can marry a daughter-in-law, they can find their in-laws, if they don't die, their whole family will live a good life, this is a steady profit!"

This is true, but Yang Meng is still calculating, this group of people estimates that there are three or four hundred, if he collects it, there will be more in the future, and he can't take as much as he wants!

A person has five taels of silver a month, as well as a full meal, clothes, shoes and socks, all of which are piled up with money, and if his business is done well, it will be successful! Once it is not done well, this huge Yang family will be dragged down by them.

"There are so many people, I can't afford to raise them!"

Yang Meng silently calculated, this cost is really not small, he has to raise thousands of people, and he has to spend close to 10,000 taels a month, and the allocated real estate is not a small amount.

"Third master, we also thought about it, these people don't want land, their family's land is enough to plant, and the monthly money can also be halved, two taels of silver, so that their whole family can live a good life."

It is said that the mountain people are united, which can be seen, and they do not forget to share the benefits. It is said that the mountain people are simple, and it can be seen through this incident that Yang Meng gave them a way out, and they worked hard for Yang Meng and thought about him.

"Okay, these people will be screened, the ones who run fast will stay, and the others will let them go back!"

Wei Huozi's words were all put out, and Yang Meng could only agree, recently he had to deal with Yiliang's Zhou Da livestock, and he happened to be short of manpower, presumably Zhou's family wealth could allow him to last for a while.

"There's no need to choose, when these people came, they all chose several times, and those who ran around the mountain were all mountain monkeys, and they also knew some punches and kicks, and those who didn't make it were all brushed down."

It's all done at this point, can Yang Meng not nod?

"What a pain you have! Is it that easy? ”

This is the way of the world forcing people to walk a tightrope! These people should have lived a good life, but now they come out to work hard in order to live a good life.

"We don't want to! For the landlord to farm the land, the high rent is scary, and the rent is seventy or eighty percent, it is better to plant some mountain fields and be free. But Yamada produces too little, and mixed with wild vegetables can only satisfy the stomach. Who dares to marry a daughter-in-law? When I marry my daughter-in-law, the whole family will starve! ”

This Wei camel is also a knowledgeable person, and he can speak to the point, but the more Yang Meng listens to it, the more he doesn't taste it, the Yang family is rich, and the old man is also a good person, but there are too many poor people, the court doesn't care, and his Yang family doesn't have so much strength to control it.

"The moon is the same, let's talk about it later, you take them to training! Clothes and boots were all received from Uncle Ding. ”

These people don't deserve to die, what they should die is the world, they came to work for their own subordinates, Yang Meng can only try to ensure their safety.

The armor I ordered the shoe factory to make should be about the same, just go over and take a look, let Wei Huozi and them try it on, find out the fault, and then improve it.

Bringing fifty pairs of armor from the shoe factory and coming to the training yard, Yang Meng beckoned Wei Huozi and asked the old man to receive the armor first.

After the deal was done that day, the third master also mentioned this stubble, but I didn't expect that the armor would be made in just a few days.

Although it is a little rough, the thick copper plate and the stocky raw leather also let Wei Huozi see the benevolent side of the third master. This thing uses at least three catties of copper, plus handwork and leather, I'm afraid a pair is worth three or five taels of silver!

"The third master is benevolent!"

"Fuck off! Hurry up and bring someone to try it, and say what the problem is. ”

Looking at the old men and putting on the armor, Yang Meng's heart was also a little relieved, with such a thing, at least a few fewer people could die.

"It's all worn inside your clothes, and you're wearing it outside, are you afraid that others won't see it?"

These stupid calves, you put it outside, who still attacks the position of the chest and abdomen, it will be in vain.

"Okay, all stand up, Lao Tzu has something to say."

As soon as Yang Meng spoke, these young men and knife hands stood together, and Tang Meiyi's stunner was also crowded in the crowd, standing upright.

"Come here, stand behind me."

This stunner is determined by Yang Meng, and outsiders can't be rubbed with oil.

"You all listen, it's time for Lao Tzu to give it to you, and it's time for you to give Lao Tzu something. Lao Tzu doesn't ask for much, just one sentence, what you want to do, you have to do it! Be a soldier of my Yang family, and be a soldier of your own family.

The Yang family is in trouble, you have to play with your life! If your family is in trouble, the Yang family will give you a head! Eat well, live well, and not be bullied, this is what I want to give you.

Let you kill people, you will kill people, let you rob whoever you want, you have to rob whomever you want, even if Lao Tzu makes you commit suicide, you have to wipe your neck with a knife.

That's what you are told to do, you will do! Think about it yourself, stay when you do it, if you can't do it, I will give you a month's monthly money, go home! ”

When it comes to military training, Yang Meng still makes a living, when he was under the Golden Triangle, he was all trained by him, and he couldn't do it himself! Let others train, and I don't know whose surname I have after training!

A group of new and old swordsmen, all stood with their chests and stomachs protruding, and none of them moved, it seems that this work and this monthly salary are extremely important to them.

"Think about it again, what I did was all a fateful business, last time those veterans made a lot of money, but there were also a lot of casualties, more than 50 people died, 16 died, 2 were abolished, and more than 30% of the casualties were killed, you have to think carefully. Now there are more than 400 people, and the next time the transaction is done, it is likely that there will only be two or three hundred left. ”

These swordsmen under Yang Meng's hands are no better than the swordsmen of the Walking Horse Gang, they can't encounter several bloody fights a year, Yang Meng organized this gang of people just for armed robbery, and the frequency of bloody fights will only become more and more frequent.

Still no one moved, the veterans all laughed, although the novices were a little nervous, but the veterans didn't move, and they didn't move.

"Since you didn't leave, Lao Tzu should be your answer, and the ugly words are in the head, let you do something, if you don't do it well, Lao Tzu will kill people. What you shouldn't do, don't do it, do it! Lao Tzu will not spare you. ”

If you want to control the manpower of your subordinates, it is not enough to rely on their blood loyalty, there are no rules, and the rules are the most important.

"First, you must do your best in training and doing things, who wants to steal and play tricks, get out!

Second, the affairs of the Yang family must be kept secret, whoever leaks the bottom line, kill!

3. Go out to do things, hide your smuggling, don't listen to commands, and kill!

Fourth, ban opium, if anyone gets that thing, kill! ”

One roll and three kills are the rules set by Yang Meng, with this, these knife hands can restrain themselves well, otherwise they will act in a mess, and it will be difficult to control them when they practice.

Seeing that Yang Meng didn't have anything to say, Wei Huozi, the leader of these knife hands, leaned out, as if he had something to say, Yang Meng nodded, and Wei Huozi came out of the crowd.

"The third master is benevolent and righteous, and he has equipped us with leather armor, since you are here, you have also heard the words of the third master. My Wei Camel is a rough man, but the rough man also knows how to repay the kindness, without the third master Wei Camel, you can't marry a daughter-in-law, you have to sell your strength when you come.

I did something I'm sorry for the third master, I'm sorry for the Yang family, the third master slaughtered you, that's one, I Wei Huozi still have rules here, which one did what he shouldn't do, beware of your family, the knife in Wei Huozi's hand is also fast. ”

This is what Yang Meng wanted to say, but he didn't say it, people have concerns, they won't take risks, but they can't say it easily, and it hurts people to say it.

"Wei Huozi, what are you talking nonsense! Go back and stand up! ”

Since Wei Huozi said it, he has to say that it is not beautiful to scare these novices.

"Third master, Wei Huozi is telling the truth! Listen to it, which one betrayed the Yang family and did something embarrassing, the third master can not be investigated, but you are attracted by me, and I will investigate it, when you do bad things, think about your family. ”

If you want to say who knows these mountain people best, it must be Wei Huozi, his words are an insurance, and some people's crooked thoughts are eliminated.

"That's it! Speaking of which, when there are more people, the training should also be more formal, I will teach the boxing method, and the sword method Wei camel will teach, and they will hone themselves well, so that when they go out, they can save their lives. ”

Yang Meng took out his fighting skills, and taught some dagger skills, and taught all the decomposition actions one by one, it was already noon, and this first meal, eating it in the courtyard, can also enhance some feelings.

After lunch, I chatted with the swordsmen for a while, and the training continued, Yang Meng taught the boxing and assassination techniques in the morning, and these people also learned a rough idea, and the rest was hard practice.

These mountain people are also very hard to train, occasionally a few of them do not do well, Wei Huozi is also merciless, up is a violent beating, just practice, a month or two, these people can be used.

In the afternoon, Ding Baojun sent clothes and some military boots, and put on new clothes, these people will also see it, the number of military boots is not complete, and some people have to wait for a few days, but a sturdy dress makes these new knife hands crooked, such good clothes, many people don't say wear them, and they don't see much.
