That night, the heroes drank darkly......

The next day, Chai Jin got up early in the morning, and he met Zhao Chongyang's situation and suddenly decided to give up the fight for the country, join the Wantong Chamber of Commerce, fully support Zhao Chongyang's situation, and send several letters in a row, using the flying pigeon to send the book to the eldest brother Chai Gui and uncle Chai Huangcheng.

At the same time, the details and reasons and the content of the secret conversation with Wu Yong and Zhao Chongyang were written into long materials, which were brought by Wu Song and Qiu Qionghu to Cangzhou City to find the beggar gang and brought to Chai Gui and Chai Huangcheng respectively.

After breakfast, Li Kui, Huangfuduan, Li Yun, Chao Gai and others all went to Cangzhou City to find Sihai Money Village to exchange it for silver tickets, and each wrote a letter to trust the beggars to send to everyone's homes. And Lu Junyi called Shi Wengong aside, and the two of them didn't know what to say.

Zhao Chongyang, Chai Jin, and Wu Yong were discussing the question of where to train these cavalry. It is obviously not the best solution to cross the sea to Sado Island and bring it back when needed in the future. However, on land, it is not easy to find a place to raise more than 10,000 war horses, and at the same time to train them in the field, and to make them unaware.

Zhao Chongyang reminded Wu Yongdao, near Jeju Mansion in Shandong, there are many waters, and there are no such large islands surrounded by water, and there are no people living on them.

Wu Yong said: "The 800 miles of water in Liangshan, surrounded by water, deserted, if you open it out as a place to raise troops and horses, no one should know the truth." Because, after all, those places are all primeval forests, plus strongmen are set up. It is also located at the junction of Jeju and Yuncheng and Dongpingdi, which belongs to the Sanzhi area, not to mention that your brother Zhao has money, and when the time comes, he will say that he will cut wood and make paper in the mountains and pay some taxes everywhere, and no one will come to ask. ”

Zhao Chongyang pretended not to know, and asked: "Liangshan is known as eight hundred li, it should include the surrounding waters, I don't know how much land area the center has, at least four or five hundred li, so that it is good to raise troops and horses, and at the same time recruit tens of thousands of displaced people to go up the mountain to open up wasteland and farm, if the food supply can be guaranteed, even the government is helpless after knowing it." ”

Wu Yongdao: "According to the older generation, the central land is indeed no less than 500 li, because there are hundreds of large and small peaks, among which the highest main peak is called Liangshan. It's just that I and the king have been away from home for more than five years, and the people who came up from Shandong the year before last said that now Liangshan has been forcibly occupied by a group of strongmen called Wang Lun, a white-clothed showman, I don't know if it's true or not? ”

"Regardless of whether he is true or not, when the time comes, if someone really falls into the grass, persuade them to stop, either lead 500 people and leave, or join our industry, divide some things for him, and take money to live a peaceful life. Otherwise, extraordinary measures will be the only resort. Zhao Chongyang said seriously.

Chai Jin said: "I have also heard of Shuibo Liangshan, which is indeed a good place, very suitable for hiding soldiers and horses." It is located in the north again, and the Beijing division is in danger, and one person and two horses are rushing day and night, and they can be reached in seven or eight days. The virtuous brother can first send some people there to repair the residence, and then transfer the soldiers and horses from Sado Island in batches. ”

"By the way, since Gongzi wants to run Shuibo, do you know the name of our Ruan family Sanxiong in Shijie Village, Yuncheng? These three people also like to practice kung fu since childhood, and they have grown up near the water since childhood, and underwater kung fu is unparalleled in Jeju. Why don't the little brothers be politely hired to be the head of the water army, otherwise, the water park must communicate with the outside world, and those who are not good at water warfare should not be controlled by others? ”

Zhao Chongyang said: Don't hide it from Brother Wu, in fact, my second brother-in-law and cousin-in-law and I are in the same department, one is in Jinan Mansion, and the other is in Jeju Mansion. You, the Heavenly King, and the three heroes of the Ruan family are all the objects of our plan to be hired, but who knows that we sent people to the place where you live, and only found the three elder brothers of the Ruan family, and the two of you ran to the big officials. Therefore, Nguyen Thi Sanxiong had already arrived in Jiaozhou and drove a ship along the coast of the sea to transport goods for the Van Thong Chamber of Commerce. ”

Next, the three of them made preliminary plans and arrangements for how to operate the business and trade in the area of Wohu Villa and Cangzhou, as well as the development of Shuibo Liangshan.

The specific planning is divided into three phases. In the first stage, there are four main things to do:

The first was to immediately transfer 5,000 infantry from Sado Island and recruit more than 15,000 Japanese from Fuso as the main force for the development of Yangsan, and build four wharves in the east, west, south and north within half a year. At that time, the boats of Yangshan can go out from four directions.

Second, while building a wharf, it is also necessary to build a garrison for 30,000 infantrymen, including barracks for officers and soldiers, pastures for war horses, and school grounds for military exercises.

The third is to acquire one or several workshops in Jeju to ensure the supply of tools for construction sites. And recruit blacksmiths, carpenters, stonemasons and other craftsmen to participate in the construction of the construction site with high salaries, and quickly transfer elites from all walks of life as technical backbones to guide all aspects of work.

Fourth, cement kilns, lime kilns, and brick kilns are all built near the water park to ensure the supply of building materials on the site. The first phase of work is expected to be completed within this year. The construction of cement kilns, lime kilns, brick kilns, and ironwork workshops must be carried out immediately. Chao Gai and Wu Yong were responsible for this part of the work, Chao Gai and Wu Yong were responsible for selecting the terrain and finding people to recruit people, and Wu Song was responsible for each other's expenditures. Shi Wengong, Li Yun, Ruan Xiaoer and Ruan Xiaoqi repaired the wharf, and Fang La, Fang Tianjie, Yang Zhi and others were responsible for repairing the barracks.
