Chapter 17: My Territory, My Decision
Chapter 17: My Territory, My Decision
At this time, Yu Feng completely relieved his heart, it seems that under his own practice, these people have also fought well, and the slightest worry in his heart before has disappeared.
In fact, in the final analysis, with these two guarantees, adequate training and strict discipline are already destined to be the combat effectiveness of the team under the new method of training should not be underestimated, and these Zhuang Ding, who have been trained by the method of training the physical fitness and queue of the modern army, although they have only been trained for more than two or three months, are really a knife to kill chickens against these smugglers and small salt lords who are more identities of small traders than strongmen. What kind of goods the other party is, he has long been clear.
However, he has such a bottom in his heart, his subordinates don't know, what they have seen with their own eyes and experienced is that their group of people with bamboo poles have defeated more people with steel knives and axes than them, and all of this has been done under the command and arrangement of their leader, and the expressions of these people looking at Yu Feng are naturally very different.
This is the first time he has pulled out his men and horses to fight with people with open swords and guns, and in his opinion, there is absolutely no room for the slightest mistake. Fortunately, his hard work was not in vain, these young men pulled out, and fought so well that a series of arrangements for his backup plan were not used, which also made him more confident, it seems that his own method of training troops like this still works, at least, there is no suspense at all in dealing with these smugglers.
Since these guys don't open their eyes, and the black eats the black and eats the body of their own snake, then, don't blame yourself for not giving the other party a little way to live, he secretly said in his heart: This is my territory! Whoever dares to come in with his paws must have the consciousness of being chopped up! Just like a beast in the jungle marking its own territory, Yu Feng felt that it was necessary to divide the scope of his territory, peers were enemies, peers who competed maliciously, and even more enemies among enemies, which he absolutely could not tolerate.
"These salt goods belong to our Lingshan, leave the salt goods, get out of Lingshan!"
If there is a popular phrase in the Ming Dynasty, then this sentence must be the most popular word in Lingshanwei in the fifth year of Chongzhen, and even the doll who learns the language can come to such a sentence with a milky voice, which shows that this sentence is widely popular in Lingshanwei.
Yu Feng's behavior of marking the territory directly hit the originally chaotic private salt market, this sentence, when dozens of people were fighting with weapons, it was obviously extraordinarily majestic, at least, Yu Feng's subordinates all thought so.
......
......
Time flies, and it really responds to the words time flies, time is like an arrow, at least, Yu Feng thinks so, entering the wax moon of the fifth year of Chongzhen, the illegal salt dealers near the Lingshan salt field have become extinct, and all the salt merchants who buy private salt have no other way than to find Yu Feng's family to buy and sell. All those who do not believe in evil have been turned into corpses and buried in the jungle deep in the mountains.
Yu Feng's subordinates are now also famous, because Yu Feng usually calls those long bamboo poles "spears", and everyone also calls these fierce gods and evil people who hold long bamboo poles "spears".
For those salt lords who have a relationship with the Lingshan Salt Farm, the long-haired people have not been wiped out, but if these salt lords come to the Lingshan Salt Farm to get the goods, they can't bypass the long-haired people, although these salt lords have a close relationship with the Lingshan Salt Farm for many years, and even have related interests, they can get the salt goods at a lower price, but if they have to pass through this ground, they have to make real money, or they can leave half of the salt goods.
Such a measure directly caused a lot of dissatisfaction, but given that they were really no match for these long-haired people when they fought alone, they began a new round of conspiracy. When it was almost the moon of Layue, those large and small salt lords, who were aggrieved, gathered one or two hundred people, and had a big fight with the long-haired people, this time, Changmai dispatched nearly 100 people, and the result of the battle was that the salt lords dropped twenty or thirty corpses and dispersed in a hurry.
The battle in the rivers and lakes also has such a scale, but there are not many casualties and bloody, and the terrified salt lords fled back, afraid that the long-haired people will be killed, so they have to prepare a heavy gift and send it to Zhaojia Village to calm the anger of the long-haired people.
If you can't beat it, you have to give gifts to the door, not to mention how aggrieved these salt lords are, but, despite the benefits to the long-haired people, they can still make some money, which is much richer than engaging in other businesses, this person is the most realistic, compared with the two, these salt lords will settle down, and directly recognize the long-haired people's leading position in this land.
Yu Feng is now in Zhaojia Village, no, in the entire Lingshan, he is a respected person, for no other reason, Yu Feng is rich. At least eighty percent of the salt goods sold in the Lingshan Salt Farm have to pay money to Yu Feng, and all the private salt transactions near Lingshan have basically been monopolized by Yu Feng. And Yu Feng, as Zhao Zongqi's son-in-law, although he is just a talented and famous, thousands of households, hundreds of households, and even Zongqi, his status is much higher than him, but when he saw Yu Feng, people's respectful expressions far exceeded those above him.
This respect is not the superficial respect that ordinary people see when they see officials, but real respect. You must know that in this health center, there are almost five hundred households, all of whom are boiling salt and boiling salt for Yu Feng, and using the silver collected by Yu Feng to supplement the family, and there are many people, their own sons, who are directly helping Yu Feng to do things in the long hair, which is difficult to be disrespectful.
Besides, Yu Feng is also a particular person when he does business, saying that a few cents of silver is a few pounds of silver, as long as he follows his rules, there will never be a deduction of arrears of money, so although the neighboring state capital is still making trouble, and even some people have heard of cannibalism, but, in Lingshan, everyone generally feels that this year's year is much better than that of previous years. At least, those officials of the inspection department, who are usually arrogant and domineering, and oppress the township, have now converged a lot, and more often, they are nested in the city and do not come out.
To say, Yu Feng's actions, this salt transportation inspection does not know at all, that is too underestimated, not to mention this salt transportation inspection department, which was originally the official salt transportation inspection agency of the Ming Dynasty, is very clear about the flow of these official salts, that is, the people who serve in the salt transportation inspection yamen, up to the inspection, down to those officials or those gangsters who were invited by them, the one who has not handled the illegal salt trade, which has not gotten a benefit from it, they are very clear about the Tao here.
They turned a blind eye to what Yu Feng did, and the only explanation was that they were frightened. Not to mention anything else, take the last time the salt lords gathered their men to fight with the aftermath, these gangsters also had a few of them in the past, and the bloody scene at that time, it is said that after they came back, they had nightmares for several days in a row. The salt barons of such a scale are not enough to fight the other party even if they pull out all the people of the inspection department, but the long-haired ones not only won, but they are not damaged at all, but the fierce salt barons have killed a lot of people.
Some of them are well-informed, and they secretly inquired, this is not all the strength of the long-haired people on the table, I heard that just the young man who boiled the salt, there are still more than 100 people on the long-haired side who have not moved, and this time it is only a small number of people. This kind of news has made them dare not give birth to any non-trivial thoughts.
Two or three hundred young people almost account for a quarter of the young people in the two neighboring guards, in other words, to put it mildly, even if the current commander of the guard post speaks, there may not be a good aftermath. Such a big force, not to mention a small inspection department yamen, even those regular local soldiers, if there is no strict order from above, they will not dare to provoke at all.
The thousands of households in the guard, the commander, are to obey the imperial court to mobilize troops to fight, that is, when the troops are sent to fight, they rely on dozens of families raised by themselves to hold down the position, although these families eat well and use well, but when they are pulled out one-on-one and long-haired people, they may not necessarily have the upper hand, but they are more defeated. In this case, the commander of the thousand households is full and holds on to find the trouble of Yu Feng, isn't it uncomfortable to find it? Besides, Yu Feng is the son-in-law of the general banner of his own guard, and he can also be classified in the ranks of his own people, and Zhao Zongqi's point has not left them behind, of course they will turn a blind eye.
In the past, because of the Lingshan salt field next to here, many illicit salt dealers from other places came here to sell illicit salt, these people were originally outlaws, all of them were bold, and they relied on their own people to be fast and bold, making the place smoky, and there were cases from time to time, and the nearby guards were very weak, and no one was willing to come out to uphold justice.
And as the leader of the long hair, it is naturally the prestige of the boat, not to mention Yu Feng, it is Xue Niang, now when she goes out, she is also surrounded by people and flattered, the current long hair, but not so good when Yu Feng recruited people, how many families have idle children, I don't want to find a way to stuff my son's sons in, Yu Feng has a big rule there, but Xue Niang grew up in Zhaojia Village since she was a child, everyone is familiar with it, who doesn't have three or five relatives, so, some people are thinking about taking a lady route or something, in short, Xue Niang is definitely the last few months, it is the most proud time in her life, when she first got married, those female relatives in the same village inevitably had a sour look, but now, in the eyes of these people, they only see respect, envy and flattery.
