Chapter 602: Grace and Might
Seeing the little master come in, Ye Shan quickly stood up, Xu was afraid that he would accidentally hurt the little master, so he hid the knife behind him.
Jiayin smiled and said, "Uncle Shan, are you sharpening the knife for your father-in-law?" I have something to tell you. ”
Dongmei came out of the house and hurriedly responded, "Miss has something to do, just let him go out to do something, and if he grinds it again, I'm afraid the blade will be gone." ”
Hayama smiled, quickly wiped the war knife clean, and carefully inserted it into the scabbard.
Jiayin said: "Uncle Shan, the silver that I got from selling melons before is also put away, I think it is better to change it into grain and save it."
"These people in Xindu are too bad, what if the father-in-law is outside in the future and the court doesn't give food and grass? Grandma always said that I don't panic when I have food in my hand, so I save more to save for my father-in-law.
"You go to Zhengjiazhuang, let Zhengjiazhuang buy a small amount of grain many times, store it well, and when it is cold in winter, I have the rest of the arrangements."
With that, she took out a thick purse from her satchel, which was full of silver tickets.
That's five thousand taels!
Although Ye Shan felt that the emperor was there, and no one dared to withhold the military rations of the Hou Ye, but the master ordered it, and it was his duty to obey the order.
He hurriedly took it, "Yes, miss, don't worry, I'll go to Zhengjiazhuang." ”
After that, he was about to leave, but Jiayin covered it with his satchel and took another oiled paper bag from the space, "Uncle Shan, there are two buns here, and you pad your stomach on the way." ”
Ye Shan smiled, and he was not polite, and took it while eating to untie the reins of the horse, but before he could go out, Hou Ye came back and brought a team of dozens of horses.
Seeing that Ye Shan was going out, Hou Ye asked a few questions, and when he heard that Jiayin had an order, he didn't say much.
Ye Shan went out and left, the little fox was the first to find Hou Ye, so he chirped, Jiayin hurriedly ran forward and hugged Hou Ye's arm, "Father-in-law, why did you come in so early today?" ”
"There is no major event in the DPRK today, so I will go to the dock to help you bring back the manpower." Hou Ye held the fat girl's hand and went up the steps.
Dongmei hurriedly moved the chair, and the father and daughter sat down.
Thirty veterans tied their horses and came over, saluting in unison.
Jiayin was a little strange, she guessed that these hands were the ones that her father-in-law had found for her, and she would have to go out to find medicinal herbs in the future.
But none of these people seem to be wounded soldiers, at least they are not missing arms or legs.
She asked, "Father-in-law, you have transferred all the good men in the army to me, will you be short of people?" ”
"No," Hou Ye patted her back with a smile, signaling her to be reassured, and explained: "They have been following me for several years, and they are all injured, but they don't delay their movements. Just sent to help you go out to find medicinal herbs, they are also slowly adapting, being an ordinary person, and living a peaceful life. ”
Jiayin suddenly realized and suddenly understood.
These people are about the kind of post-war syndrome they heard about in their previous lives, and they don't seem to have any injuries on the surface, but the battle on the battlefield has left a lot of marks in their hearts.
She thought for a while and said, "Father-in-law, will they listen to my arrangement in the future?" Completely subordinate to my domestic slaves, or hired servants? ”
Hou Ye smiled and shook his head, "It depends on whether you can convince them, they are willing to be your house slaves, and if they don't want to, they will stay in the workshop in the second village." ”
Jiayin didn't get stunned for a while, got up and took two steps forward, and looked at these veterans carefully.
It can be said that the people who came down from the battlefield looked a little fierce in their expressions, and they were even on guard at all times.
But their eyes are quite clear, which makes Jiayin very satisfied.
She said, "You are the same age as my father, and I should call you uncle." I am Li Jiayin, the youngest granddaughter of the Li family, and the lord of Kangle County, who is personally appointed by the emperor's uncle, and Broken Gold Beach is my fief.
"First of all, I want to thank you for fighting for Tianwu, and for shedding your blood in order to protect us from living and working in peace and contentment! Today, you have come to our Broken Gold Beach, no matter what you do in the future, I welcome you on behalf of all the people of Broken Gold Beach.
"Uncles can rest assured that there are no enemies here, they are all relatives who support each other and want to survive. Of course, there are always wild boars running down the mountain to harm the grain recently, and the soles of the shoes chased by the village chief's grandfather are about to run away. ”
The thirty veterans were still stiff-faced, although the Hou Ye was credible, but after all, he came to a strange place.
But the little fat girl county lord welcomed them and told them some jokes, and they laughed unconsciously.
It was Hou Ye who sat behind him, and he all raised his smiling face.
He knew that his little girl was not comparable to ordinary children.
None of these thirty veterans will run out of the palm of her hand......
One of the oldest black-faced men took the lead in saluting and said, "Thank you Lord for not disliking us wasters." ”
"Don't dislike it," Jiayin smiled and waved his little fat hand, and said: "My father-in-law loves me the most, and he chose you to send it to me, which proves that you are the most powerful soldier in his heart!" ”
Sure enough, the thirty veterans were more relaxed, holding their heads up and chests, and a little proud.
Jiayin said: "I asked my father-in-law to summon all the uncles over, but in fact, there is nothing serious. I am in the same old god medical skills, some medicinal materials are only available in the atlas, I have not really seen them, and I am young, my family is not worried about letting me go out.
"So I wanted to find a team of people to help me go south and find some medicinal seeds, medicinal seedlings, maybe some kind of local fruit or something.
"It's a job that involves walking around and sleeping in the open, which can also be dangerous. So you uncles must think about whether they want to work for me.
"If you work for me, you have to sign a death contract, not a work contract, because the medicine I research in the future may be famous all over the world, and the formula and raw materials must be kept secret, and I need your loyalty.
"Of course, if you uncles are willing to be loyal to me and work hard, I will never treat you badly. After that, you will have five taels of silver per month, and I will be responsible for supplying the rest of your food, drink, clothing, weapons, wounds, and medicine. I can assure you that these are the best and will ensure your safety to the greatest extent possible.
"If that's the case, it's still inevitable that there will be a whatever, then ...... When my deceased uncle was buried, I was responsible for finding orphans to pass on and offering incense to my uncle. Disabled uncle, I am responsible for the care of the old age. As long as I live for a day and Broken Gold Beach exists for a day, my uncles will have no worries about food and clothing, and live and work in peace and contentment! ”
The veterans didn't speak for a long time, not that they didn't believe that Jiayin had the strength to fulfill their promises, after all, there were still the Li family and the Hou Ye behind them to rely on.
They were surprised that a child of a few years old could say such a paragraph, which was justified and powerful......
No wonder they have lived for half their lives in vain, they are still big-headed soldiers, and this chubby girl is already the county lord......
