Chapter 80: The Rifle Production Line Arrives
In troubled times, no matter how high or low, people will have ambitions. It is that people will yearn for a life that is superior to others, and these four family masters who took the risk of the Nine Clans and captured the training mountain are naturally no exception. Compared with Xu Bin's ambition, the four family heads just want to preserve the family inheritance and let the surname prosper with branches. If you can get rid of the title of this bandit house on your head, it is undoubtedly the consensus of all clansmen.
With the help of Zhao Bao's family, the remaining three family heads finally chose to stay and became vassals of the Xu family. I hope to rely on Xu Jiajun's future to gamble on the future of the family. If it is really as Zhao Baojia said, Xu Bin will have a beautiful future, then they will naturally gain something from the dragon's.
In the same way, Xu Bin, who was worried about whether to keep these people in the training mountain, faced the four heads of the family a day later, and handed over the clan register of the village. expressed his willingness to become a supportive family of Xu Jiajun from the time he submitted the roster. In this regard, Xu Bin didn't know why these four families made this decision, but he was still happy to see this situation.
If you have to divide your energy every day, beware of these large number of people with foreign surnames, and leak the secrets of the training mountain, it will undoubtedly consume too much energy of Xu Jiajun. In this regard, after Xu Bin accepted the surrender of the four families, he handed over the register of the sect and sent it back.
In front of the four family heads, Xu Bin also released his sincerity for the first time and said: "Since the four family heads are willing to advance and retreat with Xu Jiajun, then I welcome you to join on behalf of Xu Jiajun." According to the previous regulations, the four of them can find a place to build a village in a relatively safe place in the mountains, and I, Xu Jiajun, will fund the construction of a new village for the relocated villagers.
Don't think I'm embarrassing you, in fact, I have a big deal to do when I take the training mountain. Perhaps it will not be long before you will see the great changes that have taken place in this mountain, and at the same time on the side of the Tamsui Lake and the entrance to the sky, I will spend a lot of money on building an impregnable fortress of war.
If you don't move your current village, I'm afraid it will be more troublesome to plan, especially the village of the Zhao family master, which is an important location for me to build a military aircraft in the future. Therefore, it is better to build you a shelter in advance to restrict your travel in the future.
You can rest assured that the new village will be made of bricks and tiles, which will surely satisfy every villager who has been relocated. The money needed will also be provided by Xu Jiajun, and the village where you live will also become a prosperous village in the future of Lianbing Mountain. In this way, if the four heads of the family can open a restaurant or teahouse at that time, I believe that business will be prosperous.
In my Jihua, the population of this training mountain will reach at least tens of thousands in the future. Thinking about the people who go to your village every day to eat and rest, this business is probably more cost-effective than you farming, right? This can be regarded as my sincere gratitude to the four heads of the family, how about it? ”
Seeing that Xu Bin did not intend to drive them to live together, but indeed had difficulties. In this regard, the four family heads who have decided to follow will naturally not refuse. Moreover, Xu Bin also promised to build them a brick house. This kind of house can only be enjoyed by landlords in this era. There are very few ordinary people's homes that can live in this kind of house.
In addition, I heard that in the future, the four of them can do business in this training mountain, and I thought that if tens of thousands of people really lived here. Every day those people go to the village to eat and drink, and this business must be booming. What's more, there is no one else to compete with them in this mountain, which can be described as a unique business, and if they don't make money, they can only be blamed for being too incompetent.
When they first realized that Xu Bin seemed to be a leader who ate soft rather than hard character, the four heads of the family were undoubtedly often relieved. Moreover, so many Xu family troops poured in last night, and in addition to patrolling the village normally, there was not a single incident of trespassing on people's houses.
And after dawn, these soldiers began to clear out the barracks of the former army garrison, and did not dislike those barracks in tatters. Even if he needed to find something to repair the house, Xu Jiajun's logistics troops gave him cash to buy it. It was the first time that the people with the four surnames had heard of such respect for the common people or the army of the captives.
Especially the people surnamed Zhao who were wiped out by Xu Jiajun last night, Xu Jiajun sent condolences early in the morning, telling those family members that the money was a little bit of Xu Jiajun's heart. At the same time, the families of the sentries who were killed last night will not have to pay taxes to the Xu family army in the fields allocated to them in the training mountain in the future.
Faced with the fact that this is money and tax exemption, the Zhao family, who originally heard that their brothers or children and grandchildren died in the hands of Xu Jiajun, really didn't know whether to hate Xu Jiajun or thank Xu Jiajun. It stands to reason that the two armies are fighting as hostile sides, and it is normal for them to die in battle.
But the bad thing is that now the Zhao family has announced that they have surrendered to the Xu family, so that in order to appease the families of these dead sentinels, Xu Bin finally made this treatment that only the martyrs of the Xu family army can enjoy. What's more, the comfort money and land he gave belonged to the four surnamed villages. This can be regarded as borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, showing the reputation of a benevolent and righteous army!
Perhaps seeing the sincerity of Xu Jiajun, coupled with the first batch of materials escorted by Xu Yizhong, he began to arrive at Lianbing Mountain smoothly along the official road. The dilapidated barracks, which were originally empty and untidy, were quickly renovated with the arrival of these bricks and cements.
Especially the young man with the four surnames who had his guns confiscated and seemed to have nothing to do every day, when he saw the march of the Xu Jiajun every day, the neat and orderly pace and the sound of the password. An inexplicable envy also began to envelop the minds of these young people.
Wait until Xu Yizhong, the logistics minister of Xu Jiajun, accompanied the heads of the four surnamed families to the mountain near the Tamsui Lake to determine the gathering place of their four surnamed villages. Xu Bin, who drew a schematic map of the new village on the spot, pointed to the houses and commercial streets designed according to the distribution of the valley, and the four heads of the family discovered it for the first time. They have lived in this mountain for so many years, why have they never thought of building such a village like a county street!
With this schematic diagram, Xu Bin ordered Xu Jiajun to support their merchants through Baofeng Town, and quickly purchased a large number of bricks and tiles and cement from Linzhou Mansion and other places. Let the officers and soldiers who are temporarily unable to conduct formal training have a great battle between the military and the people with these four villagers who are extremely eager to live in the new village.
Finally, when Booker sent the goods to Gannan and asked how to receive them, many villagers in the village with the surname of Si had already moved into their new homes one after another. Looking at this training town that was beginning to take shape, Xu Bin turned his attention to the matter of receiving supplies.
Questioning Booker by telegram learned that there was a lot of heavy machinery and equipment on the production line, so it would be difficult to transport them as secretly as the one in that case. Fortunately, Xu Bin asked the Li family, who are familiar with water, to clean up the waterway connecting the freshwater lake to the Linsha River during this time.
Although it is impossible to walk the gunboats and large freighters, some small cargo ships under ten tons can still dock at the newly built Haode Tamsui Lake dock under the guidance of people familiar with the waterways.
With this waterway that can pass small cargo ships, Xu Bin asked Booker to spend some money to hire more small cargo ships to transfer the machinery and equipment on the big ships. Xu Bin also generously said that he was responsible for the labor costs spent for this.
With this sentence, Booker, who came over this time and brought his father with him, also happily asked someone to load the big boxes on the large freighter to the small freighter one by one. And for the sake of the secrecy that Xu Bin said, he also deliberately bought a set of transferred equipment and installed it on the ship, and completed this kind of ant moving work in the open sea.
After everything was ready, the two negotiated the time for the transaction to receive the goods, and soon the calm training mountain became nervous again. In particular, the waterway bordering the Tamsui Lake and the Linsha River was heavily guarded by Xu Bin. If all of this equipment is not fully unloaded, any officer ship that dares to stop it will face shelling by his artillery detachment. Anyway, the river channel is not wide, and with the range of mortars, it is completely condescending to blow up and sink the searching official ship.
Uncle Du, who had not been back to Orange City for a long time, acted as the navigator this time, leading Booker's fathers Laura and Ellen, who seemed a little nervous, to sail into the canal with nearly ten small cargo ships under the night again.
Seeing the truck driving towards Linzhou Capital at a very quiet and slow speed, Booker, who saw his father's nervousness, said very excitedly: "Father, you don't have to be nervous, this canal is usually safe." In addition, Xu also sent soldiers to protect him, so there would be no danger. ”
Considering that this arms production line could not afford to be lost, Xu Bin sent Tian Youliang, who had been with Booker a few times last time, to lead a platoon of elite soldiers to Hero City to escort the cargo convoy to the waters of Lianbing Mountain. In the event of an attack on the way, it is necessary to ensure that the goods are not lost as much as possible while ensuring that Booker is secured.
Perhaps the trip was too secretive, and Booker and Xu Bin were in contact through the radio, so that when they reached the intersection of the river. Seeing the guide ship that appeared in front of him, the owner of the cargo ship looked at the bright and dangling Long Yangfen, followed the wooden boat leading the way in front, and carefully drove the cargo ship into the freshwater lake of Lianbing Mountain.
As a cargo ship turned into the waterway, Xu Bin, who was standing on the mountain and staring at the river all the time, was a little relieved, and soon took the guard platoon that was close to him, and quickly went down the mountain to make a wooden boat to meet Booker, who was looking for his figure on the shore.
