After processing for half an hour, the kitchen brought food, except for Ruhui and Zhou Xuezhi, everyone ate sorghum mixed with other coarse grains to make Yuliang, Zhao Jin and his partners have some discounts, and there will be broth when they eat alone.

More than 2,000 family members plus more than 10,000 displaced people, the consumption of food is huge, and the accumulation of the next year or even the year after next is also taken into account, so it is necessary to calculate the consumption.

At lunchtime, Ruhui and Zhou Xuezhi both said goodbye, and when Zhao Jin came over after a stick of incense after eating, everyone became a habit, and they also knew how to estimate the time.

The weather at the end of August was already a little cool, but when the sun was good, it was very comfortable at noon, and the sentry standing guard outside Zhao Jin's house squinted, he had just finished lunch, and his meal was heartwarming, and he was warmed by the sun, always thinking about taking a nap.

When he slept while standing guard, he had to be heavily punished with twenty military sticks, and many newcomers had already received such punishments, and this one did not dare to become the next one.

"Ruhui"

"Ruhui"

"Mr. Cao"

Zhao Jin's roar suddenly came from the room, and the sentries in various positions outside were frightened, and they subconsciously clenched their weapons, thinking that something was wrong.

However, when they heard the shouting of Mr. Cao, the manager, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the team standing guard hurriedly replied: "Master, Mr. Cao has returned to his side."

"Call him over, go quickly," Zhao Jin ordered loudly.

The two sentries hurriedly turned around and rushed out of the house, while the other people looked at each other tremblingly, their own master was fierce and quiet, it was rare to have such a gaffe, what was going on, through the doors and windows, you could hear panting and being extremely emotional.

"Wait for Mr. Cao to come, no one is allowed within a radius of two zhang from this house, and violators will be killed" Zhao Jin gave another order, this time his voice was much calmer, and the family members outside also settled down, and hurriedly agreed loudly.

Although Hejiazhuang is not big, but every day such as Hui inside and outside the operation, often have to go far away to find, after a while, Zhao Jin in the room in a hurry to urge twice, the standing guard of the family ran out of the Lu to go to the two sets, then saw people.

Ruhui was also surprised by Zhao Jin's anxious call, and ran back with his family out of breath, and many people looked sideways along the way, thinking that something big had happened.

"A few of you are on standby at any time, and if something is wrong, you will rush in" Entering the courtyard, Ruhui whispered to the team on duty, and the team was shocked, and nodded hurriedly.

"It's me who has something urgent to ask, don't think about it, Mr. Cao, come in" Over there, Zhao Jin had already pushed open the window, and when everyone looked at the past, they couldn't see anything unusual, but they could see that they were excited just now.

Ruhui shook her head, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and stepped into the room, Zhao Jin said again on the other side of the window: "There is no one within a radius of two zhang."

The outside has begun to be arranged, and Ruhui, who entered the room, asked solemnly: "Owner, what is the big deal?" ”

Ruhui and Zhao Jin have also dealt with each other for such a long time, knowing that although the proprietor of his own family is young, he has a calm and mature beyond his age, and he will not lose his temper when he is idle, but today he is so anxious to shout people, there must be something great happening, and he will call himself to come, Ruhui has thought of several directions.

Over there, Zhao Jin shook his head, took a deep breath, and then picked up a newspaper on the table, opened it to a certain page and said, "Mr. Cao, are you familiar with this name?" ”

Is it about Di Bao? Ruhui was stunned for a moment, he remembered that he marked the section as last year's Di Bao, what was wrong last year, could he be so serious?

Thinking about it in his heart, Ruhui still walked over to watch while wiping his sweat, and read out the paragraph that Zhao Jin pointed to: "Patrol according to Shandong Yushi Zhai Feng Chen to control the east and west, Hexi Ning front of the soldiers and horses are tired, the second battalion of the former Tunning Yuan Deputy Staff is still stationed in the city, and the guerrilla reserve in the front and left is moved to the border fort of Jichong, easy to intercept, easy to pursue, the rest of the forts to escape the soldiers and horses to make up for the quota, less increase food to support, to the official committee to buy reward goods to reduce the price of evil, every time the reward is spoken, After that, when the reward money and grain for the reward, Dongyi Nuer Hachi is good at participating in the profit, the Tao wants to be in the city in the implicit reduction of the meaning, so that the merchants gradually thin out the ginseng and the other of the wealth is not abundant, since the tail will wag the tail and beg for mercy, is the minister of the worried, the captives plundered my people, but also probed its wise people, the original to make the loss of the heart, for the other to use all the interior of the void and the real are transmitted, and I Liao to the service heavy trouble, as for nothing to do, I wish to go, the future worries Fang Da Ear"

What's wrong with that? Ruhui looked at it again in confusion, and said confusedly: "Shandong Patrol should not be this this year, these scholars are so empty to discuss, Dongyi is in Liaodong, Liaodong is Shandong Xingdu Division, the relationship between the two sides is close, these discussions about Dongyi still have some truth, this Zhai Feng's subordinates have not heard of it, but since it is the imperial history patrol, it will be very clear if I want to come to the prince's side."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Jin showed an impatient look on his face, and nodded heavily with his finger, and Ruhui leaned over to take a closer look.

"Nuer Hachi? Is the proprietor asking this? Ruhui asked uncertainly.

Zhao Jin nodded, his expression was quite solemn, Ruhui was even more puzzled, wiped his sweat again, put the handkerchief in his pocket, frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Nuer Hachi's name is really a little impressive, the palace newspaper of the imperial court always says that it is a peaceful and prosperous era, and the four sides come to the court, so the tribute envoys of the surrounding barbarian tribes must always be mentioned." ”

Speaking of this, Ruhui turned his head to look at Zhao Jin and found that Zhao Jin had a rare solemn look on his face, which made him more and more strange, and continued there: "Anyone who came over from Liaozhen, there should have been this slave Hachi for more than ten years, and he should be the leader of Dongyi. ”

"What exactly do Dongyi and Xilu mean?" Zhao Jin frowned and asked.

"Tartar, captive, the source of this division subordinates dare not say accurately, vaguely with the Beijing division as the boundary, and the Ming Dynasty as the enemy of the Mongolian tribes are in the west, called the Xiyu, the east is not settled, but also subject to the Ming Dynasty, there are also guards such a setting, subordinates are all listening to the businessman's narration, maybe there is no inaccuracy, the proprietor is not strange." Ruhui didn't look so sure.

"The west is talking about Mongolia, and the east is talking about what tribe is it?" Zhao Jin ignored Ruhui's words and just continued to ask.

"There are both Mongolian and Jurchen, and there are more Jurchens, but my subordinates have heard that these people claim to be the remnants of Jin, but in fact they are not" Ruhui is a scholar in the end, and he has already begun to talk about allusions at this point

However, Ruhui stopped after saying a word, because he saw that Zhao Jin's expression was very strange, and he seemed to be stunned.

If it was Zhao Jin's partner, he might be able to recognize Zhao Jin's expression at this time was similar to when he saw the bird on the bank of the Yellow River, but Ruhui saw it for the first time, and he was shocked, but he didn't dare to disturb, he only stared cautiously on the side, and then asked in a low voice: "The owner, the owner"

Zhao Jin didn't react, he was still there in a daze, Ruhui frowned, raised his voice slightly and asked, "Owner, is there anything wrong?" ”

"Mr. Cao, will there be any mistakes or omissions in the two words of this slave Hachi?" Zhao Jin ignored Ruhui's inquiry, and asked again with his own thoughts.

The word "slave" is indeed lowly, and a leader with such a name is outrageous, Ruhui smiled when he saw this, and explained: "Proprietor, this is just the practice of addressing barbarian envoys, according to the original pronunciation of this person's own pronunciation, it is turned into Chinese characters, and the name is cheap, otherwise it will not show submission and humility." ”

Zhao Jin nodded slowly, and returned to that state of wandering outside the world, and muttered to himself: "Jurchen, Nuer Hachi, Nuer Hachi turned out to be this era. ”

Ruhui patted his forehead with his hand, he really couldn't understand the situation today, he thought something big had happened when he came, but he didn't think that it was a trivial matter in the newspaper last year, not to mention that he saw it this year, even if he saw it at the time, he would sneer a few times, saying that this patrol is good to make big words, not for promotion, what is there to care about as a tribal chief who controls the ginseng trade.

As a result, the proprietor, who has always been calm and mature, actually became crazy because of this, Ruhui wondered, is it that the proprietor has suffered evil here, and he has lost his heart and gone crazy, should he slap him? It is said that a patient who has just been affected by the wind can be woken up by a hard beating.

"It turned out to be this era" The vague muttering finally said aloud, Zhao Jin had already stood up from his seat, Ruhui thought that at this time, he was about to reach out to fan, but before he moved, he found that Zhao Jin was no longer confused, and it was no different from before.

"What does the proprietor mean?" This inexplicable sentence "this era", Ruhui still didn't understand, and couldn't help but ask.

"I said that I finally knew one thing, I really can't be sloppy and vague in reading and doing things." Zhao Jin said with a smile, he originally wanted to say that he should study seriously, otherwise it would be troublesome to forget the details, but after saying it, he changed to doing things.

Ruhui nodded stunned, Zhao Jin closed the newspaper and threw it aside, walked a few steps in the room and stopped, and said: "Originally, I thought I was in a hurry, but now I look at it, it's time to prepare."

Ruhui only then noticed the details, Zhao Jin had not returned to normal, and his emotions were obviously very excited at this time.

"Since the rise of the proprietor, every step has been very solid, where it is urgent, to say preparation, what the proprietor is doing now, everywhere is preparation." Ruhui said a few clichés.

Zhao Jin smiled and waved his hand, and then drove people directly: "Mr. Cao, you go back to work first, and by the way, I may be late in the afternoon, and I have to think about things here." ”
