Eight days later.

Zhang Chu, accompanied by Lao Niutou, the chief architect of Taipingguan, inspected the general altar of the New Beiping League, which was about to be completed.

To be exact.

It should be the old bull head who was supported by Zhang Chu and introduced him to the general altar of the Beiping League, which was about to be completed...... When people get old, there are always some privileges!

The newly completed Beiping League General Altar has the gate facing the central axis of Goutou Mountain.

The building complex behind the gate is built in the pattern of Bagua set of four phases and four phases of Tai Chi.

Tai Chi is in the center, sitting north and facing south, one east and one west, one black and one white.

The name of the white one is the Rising Sun Palace, which is Zhang Chu's office.

The name of the black man is the Greedy Wolf Palace, and it is Liang Yuanchang's office.

The specifications and configurations of the two halls are exactly the same, and there is no difference!

On the periphery of the two halls of Taiji, there are the four phases of the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu palace, which are dominated by the four departments of the Beiping League, such as the green leaves, the safflower, the thick soil, and the three rivers.

On the periphery of the four phases and four palaces, there are the eight pavilions of Qian, Kun, Xun, Zhen, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui, corresponding to the worship courtyard under the command of the Beiping League, the two elders of the east and west, and the eight functional departments of the defense army with the blood tiger camp at the entrance of the three halls.

There are a total of 108 houses, which can accommodate more than 1,000 office needs.

Compared with the original Beiping League General Altar that was expanded on the basis of the Taiping Society's general rudder.

The soon-to-be-completed Beiping League rudder is truly in line with the atmosphere of a top force dominating the rivers and lakes of a state.

Even if the Beiping League annexes the Xiliang River and Yanbei rivers and lakes one day, the newly completed Beiping League General Altar is enough to govern the rivers and lakes in the northwest of Yan.

This is not broken.

Zhang Chu is very satisfied with the upcoming Beiping League General Altar...... If you are not satisfied, there is no way, the general altar is about to be repaired to the top of the mountain, if you want to be more majestic and more magnificent, the Beiping League has only one way to move.

After inspecting for a while, as soon as Zhang Chu came out of the gate, he saw Hongyun hurrying over.

"Master Chu, something happened in Nanshan Prefecture

Hongyun walked to Zhang Chu's side, ignoring the many outsiders present, and lowered his voice and said urgently.

Zhang Chu frowned, beckoned an accompanying soldier, handed the old bull's head into the hands of the soldier, and said with a pleasant face: "There is no big work in the customs in the near future, you always cultivate well, take care of your body and bones, when we are going to build a big construction again, I will ask you to go out of the mountain again!"

The old cow was on crutches, grinning with a toothless mouth, and said: "Why don't you have a big job?" Your house, I have been totaling for a long time, it just happened that a good piece of land has just been cleared out of Nancheng, I asked Mr. Feng Shui to see it, saying that it is the blessed land of the descendants of Wang, just to build you a bigger garden, your current house, too aggrieved!"

Zhang Chu laughed and made a "please" gesture: "Okay, okay, when I think about it, I will ask you to build a big yard for me......"

The old bull head walked away satisfied, with the wind under his feet, and even the crutches in his hands had to be fluttering.

Zhang Chu watched the back of the old bull head leaving, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"What's the matter?"

He asked expressionlessly.

Hongyun took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it to Zhang Chu with both hands, "This was delivered to the building half an hour ago...... His Majesty has ordered his subordinates to find relevant information about the Golden Cicada Sect, but the situation is not optimistic. ”

A few years ago, Fengyunlou had begun to send spies outside the northwest of Yan to establish a database of rivers and lakes in Kyushu.

But so far, little has been achieved.

Dali's local concept is too strong.

The people who go out of Xuanbei Prefecture have a mouth, and they have a northern dialect with a big flavor of ballast, and they can't integrate into the circle of locals in other regions at all.

......

The letter had been opened, and it was clear that Red Cloud had read the contents of the letter.

Zhang Chu took out the letter, swept it quickly with an expressionless face, and then slapped the letter into Hongyun's hand, and said lightly: "The great luck in misfortune!"

The letter was written by a spy who had traveled to Nanshan Prefecture with a mule.

Suzaku's trail, they traced it.

But they were also tracked down by the Golden Cicada Sect of the Land Snake in Nanshan Prefecture.

The mule sensed that the wind was not in the right direction and wanted to evacuate, but it was too late.

He and a team of secret agents accompanying him all fell into the hands of the Golden Cicada Sect.

Now Jin Chan teaches Zhang Bang to let the Beiping League take 100,000 taels of gold to ransom people.

is to name and ask the Beiping League to take money to ransom people!

Obviously, among those Fengyunlou spies who fell into the Golden Cicada Sect, some of them couldn't stand the torture and confessed.

However, Zhang Chu did not blame them for confessing to the Beiping League.

On the contrary, he also wanted to thank the person who confessed.

He is not going to confess.

The mules must be gone......

"Pass my orders!"

Zhang Chu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Great Elder Xie Junxing and Second Elder Shi Yihao immediately led all the personnel of the Worship Courtyard and the Red Flower Department to the junction of Xiliang Prefecture and Nanshan Prefecture to wait for my order!"

Several of the accompanying armor soldiers came out of the ranks, waved their hands, turned around and walked away quickly.

Zhang Chu turned his head to look at Hongyun and said softly: "You take the first step, secretly go to the Heavenly Demon Palace, and ask Li Zheng for the way." ”

Hongyun instinctively waved his hands and said, "Oh!"

After a pause, she raised her head and asked, "Then the humble will arrange a few capable men to follow you around." ”

Zhang Chu shook his head slightly, "No need, I'll go directly to the sky and try to save the mule's life first." ”

"The 100,000 taels of gold ......"

Hongyun asked in a whisper.

Zhang Chu pondered for a moment, tilted his head and asked, "Ask Zhang Meng to come to see me!"

The family of the Tianxing Alliance, he is in charge, yes.

But he wasn't interested in money, and he hadn't carried silver taels on him for years......

So he really doesn't know how many families the Beiping League has.

Soon.

Zhang Meng trotted out and appeared in Zhang Chu's vision.

"Master Chu, you call me. ”

Zhang Chu didn't talk nonsense to him, and went straight to the point: "How much silver is still in the silver treasury?"

Zhang Meng rolled his eyes for a while, and replied: "More than 800,000 taels of silver, the detailed figures, it will take a little time to check the accounts to know." ”

Zhang Chu furrowed his brows: "Why is it so little?"

He didn't care much about the business of the Beiping League.

But he still has a good idea of what to expect.

The industries under the command of the Beiping League are all over the three states in the northwest of Yan, and the net income of each month is about 300,000 taels of silver...... It must be mentioned that the salary of the Beiping League is too high.

The monthly cases of the warriors of the same realm, the warriors of the Beiping League are several times, or even dozens of times, of the officials of the imperial court!

Therefore, although the Beiping League earns a lot, its expenses are not ordinarily large, and the silver money and pure income sent every month are almost fifty-fifty.

When Zhang Meng heard Zhang Chu's question, he finally resisted the urge to roll his eyes at him.

"Master Chu, last year's Northern Xinjiang War, our family funds have already been consumed!"

"Your flying banquet and the reconstruction of the main altar cost a lot of money......

The implication: The money that coincides with your hundreds of thousands of taels and hundreds of thousands of taels of Huo Huo is not money, right?

When Zhang Chu heard this, his face did not move at all, and he didn't blush at all.

He has always spent money to earn money, and he has a solid embrace of crooked reasoning.

He is also very compelling about the attributes of his own loser.

He just said secretly in his heart: It seems that this money can't be given!

One hundred thousand taels of gold.

That's one million taels of silver.

Although this million taels of silver, the Beiping League can still get it together.

But with this million taels of silver, the Beiping League can really be hollowed out!

It's too risky.

Once there is a problem, it will affect tens of thousands of people......

That's it!

Zhang Chu didn't think of this money himself!

Not for anything else.

Let him take the money, and he will take the money.

What is Zhang Chu when he?

Kaizi?

And when will it be the turn of the matter on the rivers and lakes to be solved with money?

"You, the Minister of Aoba, have to use your brains more to find a way to open a few more financial resources!"

"Otherwise, if there is something big and bone-breaking that needs to spend a lot of money, we can't get it, won't we be blind?"

Zhang Chu took the opportunity to knock Zhang Meng a few words.

Zhang Meng didn't dare to say anything, so he could only wave his hands and obey the order: "Yes, when my subordinates go back, I will convene my subordinate archdeacons to discuss the matter of opening up financial resources!"

Zhang Chu bowed slightly: "Then you just go and get busy, right?"

Zhang Meng raised his head, looking confused.

That's it?

......

Hongyun looked at the back of Zhang Meng leaving, and whispered: "Master Chu, otherwise, let's find Brother Zheng to help!"

When she saw that Zhang Chu didn't order Zhang Meng to lift the silver two, she knew that Zhang Chu was not ready to be good.

Zhang Chu pondered for a while, shook his head and said, "Let's see, when he comes back this time, there should be something to do, which can not affect him, try not to affect him." ”

Hongyun nodded yes.

Zhang Chu: "You go and prepare, I'll say hello to Deputy Alliance Master Liang later, and then I'll go directly to Nanshan Prefecture!"

Hongyun: "Then be careful. ”

Zhang Chu nodded, his gaze slowly moved to the southwest, the heart world is so big, it's time to take a look......
