Chapter 223: The Southward Relocation Plan Begins
The black carriage moved smoothly.
Zhang Chu sat in the carriage, listening to the sound of festive firecrackers and listening to the laughter of the children like silver bells.
"Ignorance is indeed a kind of happiness. ”
He rubbed his head in one hand and muttered lowly.
These ordinary people in Wutong are still in the mood to celebrate the New Year, because they don't know that the Northern Barbarian army has entered the customs and the catastrophe is coming.
Zhang Chu knows that he knows.
But he didn't know if he and the Quadruple would be able to escape this catastrophe......
Thinking of this, Zhang Chu sighed softly.
"Appeal ......"
"Helper, I'm home. ”
Zhang Chu got up and stepped out of the carriage, and saw an unmarked carriage parked in front of his house.
He walked into the house strangely and saw Wu Qianyuan helping his mother sift millet in the yard.
"Yo, boss, are you busy?"
Zhang Chu clasped his hands and walked forward with a smile and asked.
"You're busy! Where have you been strolling around for the New Year, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Wu Qianyuan glanced at Zhang Chu and said angrily.
"When I got up in the morning, I was going to go to your house for breakfast to pay New Year's greetings, but there was something temporary, so I didn't rush over......"
Zhang Chu replied.
"So, you Zhang Da Gang Master doesn't have time to come to me to pay New Year's greetings, so idlers like me can only come to pay New Year's greetings to you!"
Wu Qianyuan said in a strange way.
"Hahaha...... Don't talk weird things, don't you go back to Wujiabao at night? Let's have two drinks. ”
"Okay. ”
Wu Qianyuan agreed very reluctantly, and at the end of the day, he excitedly took the millet in his basket to invite the Zhang family, "Auntie, how do you see how I sifted?"
That guy is so big, it should be the first time to do this kind of work, and he is happy like a fool.
Zhang glanced at the clean millet in the basket and praised, "Qianyuan is really capable." ”
Wu Qianyuan raised his chin triumphantly at Zhang Chu, meaning you can't do it with me, right?
Zhang Chu was speechless...... You are a dignified Wu clan, what is there to be proud of doing this kind of work done by subordinates?
Zhang Chu didn't know that this was the last time he saw such a clean smiling face on Wu Qianyuan's face.
......
The fourth year of junior high school.
The county government is over.
The four-gang gang beat gongs and drums and sent 100,000 taels of silver to the county office.
100,000 taels of silver!
It can be as tall as two or three stories!
Forty boxes were neatly packed in large wooden boxes that were half a man high, and eight wagons were sent to pull this batch of silver!
As the carriage passed through the most prosperous street of the cattle and sheep market, a brother who was driving it "accidentally" and the carriage overturned on its side.
A fist-sized silver ingot spilled all over the ground......
The silver of the white flowers reflects the bright spring light, and I don't know how many people's dog eyes have been stunned.
The pedestrians who came and went on the street flocked to watch...... Not to mention ordinary people, even many big businessmen have never seen so much silver in their lives.
But it can only be onlookers.
Take advantage of the chaos?
Don't you see the Quadruple flag on the butt of the carriage?
Don't you see that long knife?
Don't you want to die?
He personally led the Xuanwu Hall to escort this batch of silver bears, and calmly instructed his brothers to pick up the silver scattered all over the place and repack it.
The onlookers realized that the eight taels of carriages were loaded with silver......
Thousands of people chased the convoy all the way to the county office, and watched as the brothers from the Xuanwu Hall carried the forty boxes of silver inside.
......
The overturn of the cattle and sheep market was, of course, arranged by Zhang Chu.
Although he knew that doing so might cause Nie Ben to be dissatisfied.
After all, he is an official, and he wants to be faced......
But he sent money to Nie Ben, not because he had too much money to use up, but because he wanted to break the fortune and avoid disasters.
Since everyone wants to know that the money of the Quadruple Gang has been given to the county government, of course, it is necessary to make a big fanfare.
Otherwise, those who should fight the crooked ideas of the Quadruple Gang will also fight the crooked ideas of the Quadruple Gang......
......
At the stall where the big bear escorted the silver two to the county office.
The mule stepped into the hall of the helmsman of the Quadruple Gang and reported to Zhang Chuyu on the progress of the southward migration.
"Master Chu, the Blood Shadow Guard received news that the county government has set up a checkpoint at the junction of Wuding County and Yanqi County to prevent the people of Yanli County from escaping south......"
"The people of Yanqi County have begun to flee south?"
Zhang Chu frowned, "Has the situation deteriorated to this point?"
The mule shook his head, "The checkpoint of the county government has broken the news transmission channel of the Blood Shadow Guard, and the subordinates don't know what the situation is in Yanquan County now......"
Zhang Chu knocked on the armrest of the chair and thought for a while, then asked, "How is the progress of the rudder raising food?"
The mule nodded, "It's going well, and the least of them have raised two thousand catties." ”
"Then let's start carrying out the plan to move south!"
Zhang Chu adjusted a comfortable sitting posture, "Send the front station first, greet the bandits and bandits along the way in advance, and send a certain amount of silver taels as a toll for the obedient ones, and mark them if they are disobedient, and let the White Tiger Hall go out at the back, and they will be hanged all at once!"
"If you Qinglongtang specifies a plan, you must refine the daily itinerary to what time to start and rest every day, how many roads to travel, how much food to consume, and choose a good location in advance for every overnight campsite, if you can enter the city, it is best not to enter the city. ”
After the arrangements were made, people were transferred from the Xuanwu Hall to escort the elderly, weak, women and children on the road along the way. ”
The mule kept nodding, and when he heard the last sentence, he hesitated and said, "Why don't you transfer people from the White Tiger Hall, Xuanwu Hall has to protect you and your home, and then transfer some people, Brother Xiong is not easy to do." ”
Zhang Chu pondered for a while, and said, "In this way, a small amount of manpower from the White Tiger Hall will be transferred, and then a part of the manpower from the Qinglong Hall and the Vermilion Bird Hall will be transferred to form a mixed company to escort the old and weak women and children along the way." ”
"How many manpower will be transferred, from the Baihu Hall Department and the Xuanwu Hall Department of the Eight Helms of the districts and counties, the personnel will be transferred to the Jintianfu General Rudder to replace the vacancies of the Qinglong Hall and the Vermilion Bird Hall...... The times are unstable, and we have to make sure we have some strength in our hands. ”
The mule felt very reasonable, nodded and said, "Yes, Master Chu." ”
"That's right. ”
Zhang Chu thought of something again, "Those children who were sent to the various sects to learn martial arts have not broken the contact channel between them and the Blood Shadow Guard, right?"
Mule "No, the children we sent out at this stage are mainly aimed at the various Jianghu sects in Wuding County, and they have not been affected by the entry of the Northern Barbarians for the time being. ”
Zhang Chu nodded, "Okay, two things." ”
"First, contact them and ask how their sect dealt with this Beiban entry. ”
"Second, inform them, and find out for me the secret methods and treasures of their sect for the Eight Grades of Practicing the Marrow, and if it is an elixir, I will find a way to send the prescription out...... Those who succeed will be credited!"
The mule stood up and saluted, "My subordinates, I'll arrange it." ”
"Go ahead. ”
