Lu Chengan just smiled, but in his heart he praised Qin Ranran's words at the right time.

What is your favorite of these soldiers under your hands?

What I like most is that others praise them as people of the Moxi Army, and they have the demeanor of the Moxi Army!

"Brothers, sit." Lu Chengan sat down at the top and waved everyone to sit down.

Qin Ranran also sat down on the chair next to Lu Cheng'an and looked at everyone with a smile.

"General, after a few years, I didn't expect the general to remember us. When Vice President Lu came to look for us the day before yesterday, he made us all very happy. A burly Chinese character sitting at the front arched his hand and said.

Qin Ranran whispered to the cloves for tea, while she sat quietly next to her and listened to everyone's greetings.

"How could I forget you, you, Chen Da, the deputy general of the vanguard battalion, killed more than 60 Tartars alone, and finally injured his left arm, so he had to withdraw from the Moxi Army."

"You, Li Gang, storm the camp of thousands of households......"

Lu Chengan pointed to the men sitting at the bottom, and every time he pointed to one, he would say the proudest achievements and why he withdrew from the Moxi Army.

These men, who had been bleeding and sweating, all had red eyes.

"General!" Chen Da's voice was choked, and his big fan-like hands covered his eyes.

"How have you been doing?" Lu Chengan sighed and said, "I'm far away in Shangjing, and I can't help you if I want to." But now that I'm back, there's anything I can do, and I'll help you. ”

Chen Da touched his face and said with a smile: "General, where can our gang of people do anything other than work hard?" Now Liu Dahong has opened a dart shop, and the business is okay, and many brothers eat under him. ”

Liu Dahong also came here today, and directly stood up and said: "General, if you need me, I don't want to do this business." ”

Lu Chengan smiled and said: "Today is my wife who wants to ask you, my wife wants to establish a caravan between Suzhou and Shangjing, but there is a lack of manpower, so I will pay attention to you." ”

Liu Dahong laughed and patted his chest: "General, madam, you are really looking for the right person for me!" The most important thing I have under my command is a loyal and reliable brother. ”

Chen Da also smiled and said, "What is the difference between the lady and the general?" Although a few of us were injured, it was still no problem to fight a few thieves. ”

Qin Ranran got up and blessed everyone with a smile: "I was very troubled a few days ago because of the lack of reliable people under my subordinates. The general told me that he had a group of reliable brothers, and he introduced them to me after today, and I saw that it was great to know that you were the old department of the Moxi Army. ”

"I can't say anything nice, so I'll have something to say."

"I need a caravan to escort my goods between Suzhou and Shangjing, and a team of men to help me keep an eye on the warehouses in Suzhou on weekdays."

"I also need two shopkeepers, one lives in Shangjing for a long time, one is optimistic about my shop in Shangjing, and the other is optimistic about the trend in Shangjing and returns in time. The other one is in Suzhou, helping me take care of a shop dedicated to the relatives of official eunuchs. ”

"Then I need a bookkeeper to take care of the accounts around me."

Qin Ranran bluntly said the manpower she needed and looked at everyone.

Liu Dahong was the first to speak: "I have taken care of the caravan guard, I will pick two teams of brothers, one team will only be the escort for Madame's caravan, and the other team will go to see the warehouse for Madame." ”

A man who was a little thin compared to the bottom of the seat got up and said, "Madam, I am willing to go to Beijing, when I was in the Moxi Army, I was born as a spy, and I am the best at listening to news." ”

However, Chen Da said a little awkwardly: "Madame's shop facing the official eunuchs, I let my mother-in-law try it, okay?" ”

Qin Ranran couldn't help but laugh out loud when she looked at the appearance of this five-year-old and three-thick man: "I'm going to the Governor's Mansion tomorrow, so you let your wife come here tomorrow afternoon and let me see it, and I'll decide." ”

Chen Da hurriedly responded.

"I believe in the general, and I also believe in the demeanor of the Moxi Army. All of you who have recommended yourself will prepare for the next few days, and the day after tomorrow I will gather all the people in charge of the caravan and get to know each other. ”

Everyone should be, Lu Chengan saw that they were talking about the same, motioned for everyone to sit down, and then said: "There is still a bookkeeper in this way, Li Gang, what has your father been busy with recently?" ”

Li Gang got up with a helpless smile and said, "What my father must do every day is to scold me with a lot of anger. ”

Everyone laughed and joked to him: "Li Gang, what's wrong with your old man?" ”

Li Gang smiled: "Isn't it just those things about marrying a wife and having children?" ”

Lu Chengan raised his eyebrows and asked, "I remember that you are three or four years older than me, why haven't you married a wife until today?" ”

"General, don't say this to my old man, otherwise I will not only be scolded when I go back." Li Gang hurriedly waved his hand, "I have to meet a woman I like before I can get married." ”

"Tomorrow, Shen Shi will ask your old man to come and let his wife meet." After Lu Chengan finished speaking, he turned his head to Qin Ranran and explained, "Old Man Li is the most upright, and he is the bookkeeper who retired from the army, you can see him." ”

Qin Ranran nodded, and the big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

Her biggest concern was that there were not enough people to recruit and the new recruits would be unreliable.

Now, with these Lu Chengan brothers, this problem is solved.

"Then it is decided, and at the end of the day after tomorrow, everyone will gather their men and go to the third shop on the south-facing east side of the main street in the west of the city." Qin Ranran smiled at everyone and said, "If you don't have anything to do today, let's stay and have a drink with the general." ”

Everyone excused themselves and said, "Madam, we all have to go back and prepare, and it's not too late to drink after we're done with business the day after tomorrow." ”

Qin Ranran didn't stay long, and ordered Steward Li to send everyone out.

"I still have a group of people to meet." After Lu Chengan watched everyone go out, he said to Qin Ranran, "You can also see, these are the guards of our house." ”

Qin Ranran nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip, sat on the chair, and calculated it carefully in her heart.

Lu Shi's figure suddenly appeared outside the door, and he hesitated for a moment and was about to leave, when he was seen by Qin Ranran.

"Lu Shi, come in and talk." She raised her voice and called Lu Shi in.

"Ma'am." After Lu Shi entered the house, he saluted Lu Chengan and Qin Ranran, "I have negotiated with that child, but he has a request." ”

"He wants to worship his wife as a teacher."
