Zhuang Shaoyou was worried about the silver in the county government's study, and Mo Mei walked into the house and gently rubbed his shoulders.

Zhuang Shaoyou threw his troubles aside, immediately revealed a pig brother's appearance, and began to invade all parts of Mo Mei's body, but Mo Mei is used to it, as long as he doesn't stretch into his clothes, let him go, anyway, he won't marry someone else in this life, take advantage of it.

However, people's desires are always growing, and this situation is described by having to look at Shu, kicking the nose in the face, and getting inches.

Zhuang Shaoyou is no longer satisfied with scratching his boots, so he repeatedly wants to further expand the results, but Mo Mei is sworn to die, resolutely defending the bottom line, and Zhuang Shaoyou has nothing to do, so he can't use force, right? Wouldn't that become a beast?

Zhuang Shaoyou and Mo Mei quarreled for a while, and they were also a little tired, so they stopped, and when they thought about the silver again, they couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother Shaoyou, what's wrong?" Mo Mei asked with some curiosity.

"Nothing!"

"You lie, nothing do you sigh about? Say it! Be lenient in your confession! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou said helplessly: "No money! Silver is used everywhere, and the silver seized from Zhou Wen is simply not enough, the Mo family needs money to relocate, it costs money to build a new shipyard, and it costs money to build a new wharf!

After the beginning of spring, it costs money to reclaim wasteland to grow grain, and it won't be long before Xiangping's soldiers will fight, and fighting this thing will burn money! Money is used everywhere, but there is no income. ”

Mo Mei also frowned after hearing this, and couldn't help but say: "Then I'll go to my master and ask him to take out all the money from the Mo family, at least how about the Mo family's relocation and the cost of building a new shipyard to help you solve it?" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou rolled his eyes and said, "Don't be kidding, that's tens of thousands of taels of silver!" Even if the materials are all self-sufficient, it will cost more than 10,000 taels of silver. ”

Mo Mei frowned when he heard this, Mojia Island has been accumulated for four hundred years to have what it is today, although there is some inventory, but it takes a lot of money to build a new settlement, and the shipyard on Mojia Island has been continuously expanded after several generations of accumulation, and it is really difficult to build it overnight for a while.

The two of them stared at each other in the study, but they didn't come up with a way.

Two days later, Inkstone returned, having already chosen a place to build.

Mo Mei couldn't wait to run to Mo Shi to tell him about the lack of money, Mo Shi also frowned after hearing this, the Mo family hid on Mojia Island for hundreds of years, almost isolated from the world

They are self-sufficient in everything they need, and they rarely do business with the outside world, so they don't have much accumulation

This relocation originally wanted to be done with the help of Zhuang Shaoyou's strength, but he didn't expect that he had no money, and there was no good way for a while.

Zhuang Shaoyou looked at Moshi embarrassedly, but Moshi kept thinking about it, and only raised his head for a long time and said:

"Brother Zhuang, it's impossible to get too much silver right now, so I think it's better to save money

The relocation of our Mo family requires a lot of labor to participate in the construction, and I originally wanted to choose a mountain peak to settle in the depths of the Great Black Mountain

Now it seems that it is still based on the original old cottage, with a slight transformation, so that the people of Mojia Island can move here first and stabilize as soon as possible to participate in spring ploughing

And then slowly build the Great Black Mountain, anyway, my Mo family can afford to wait, so you can save a lot of costs.

The shipyard on Mojia Island has been expanded and completed by successive generations of Mojia children, although it has been used for many years, the internal structure is still intact, and the original design is very ingenious

We can go the extra mile to dismantle the original shipyard and transport it to Newport for reassembly, so that there will be less new parts to build and much less cost.

As for the cost of requisitioning Minzhuang, although it is not very much, but it can be saved, I will transport the Zhuang Ding on Mojia Island as soon as possible, and then try to build it independently. ”

Zhuang Shaoyou was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Thank you Brother Mo for your understanding, I promised that the giant would properly settle the Mo family, but now I am very ashamed to make it look like this!" ”

However, he didn't see any shame on his face, and he was a little happy, so that the cost of the Mo family's relocation could save thousands of taels of silver

As for the construction of the new wharf, let's wait for now, and after the medium and long-term planning, we will do a good job in the relocation work and the reclamation of Xintiantian!

Leave some silver as a reward for the soldiers' wars, and in any case, it is imperative to survive this difficult time with food and frugality!

Such a big problem, although it was not perfectly solved, but finally found a way to make it possible to implement it without delaying the development speed too much, so Zhuang Shaoyou was still very happy.

At night, Zhuang Shaoyou watched the stars in the yard, thinking about money while looking at the stars.

Now that the problem of throttling has been solved, it is time to open source the total!

Where do you get the money? Mining? No way! Even if you want to dig it, you can't have gold and silver mines!

Trade? It's too late! Treasures? A little far from yourself!

It seems that you can only go and grab it!

To grab? Zhuang Shaoyou raised his head and looked at the dim stars in the sky, his eyes couldn't help but brighten,

That's right, go grab it!

Zhuang Shaoyou immediately got up and ordered his subordinates to arrest Wu Liang from home.

Two quarters of an hour later, Wu Liang ran to the county office sweating profusely.

Zhuang Shaoyou glanced at him and immediately said, "I need information on Beifeng County, focusing on detailed information on armaments and important people!" ”

Wu Liang was taken aback when he heard this, but when he pondered it, his eyes almost fell out.

Is this General Zhuang crazy? He's going to fight Beifeng?!

However, he quickly sorted out the information in his head, and then reported it to Zhuang Shaoyou in detail.

Beifeng County, one of the ten counties in eastern Liaoning, is located in the Yumai Valley of Changbai Mountain, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the county is facing water on both sides, and the mountain is facing on the other, which is the land of four stops! It is a traffic artery connecting the southern Liaoning Peninsula and the Forte Xiangping of Liaodong.

The scale of Beifeng County is smaller than that of Qiqi County, the length of east, west, north and south is less than two miles, but the city wall is slightly higher than that of Qiqi County, more than two zhang.

Because the geographical location is more important, there are 1,000 county soldiers in the city, and these standing armies are different from the city defense army, which are directly under Liaodong County, and the county orders have no right to interfere, and their task is only to garrison the county seat.

In addition, the county commander Luo Yu still has five hundred city defense troops in his hands, but these are all inaccessible troops, and their combat effectiveness is extremely poor, so they can maintain law and order or something.

When Zhuang Shaoyou heard this, he couldn't help frowning, it was another hard bone to gnaw!

Although there are 1,080 soldiers in his hands, there are only 600 people who can really fight, and the rest are young children who have only been trained for less than a month, and they can't be used immediately at all.

Wu Liang looked at Zhuang Shaoyou's brows and frowned, and sighed in his heart, if Beifeng was easy to fight, he would have encouraged him to go a long time ago, and he would have to wait until now.

There were 1,000 soldiers in the city, and 500 city defense troops, and the south and east sides of the city were surrounded by rivers, and the west was a mountain, and if they attacked, they could only attack from the north, so they had to make a big detour, first cross the river and then attack the city.

And the guards are not fools, since they know that the north gate is weak, they will definitely deploy heavy troops at the north gate, which is simply a hard bone that cannot be gnawed.

Zhuang Shaoyou thought for a while, and then asked, "Is there any other valuable information?" For example, is there a way to lure out the defenders of the city? ”

Wu Liang thought for a moment and said: "I want to lead out the defenders, but it is difficult to climb to the sky, the defenders are not under the command of the county order, they only defend the county seat, and they are not involved in other things, so it is difficult to mobilize."

However, there is a Wanzi town fifty miles south of Beifeng County, the town is developed by the Wanzi Post Station, it is a small military stone fort, there are fifty garrisons in it, and it is also directly under the Taishou Mansion of Liaodong County.

The Wanzi River flows through the town of Wanzi and then flows into the large bay on the west side, so the transportation by land and sea is relatively developed, so the town is prosperous.

There were many merchants who did business around the inn, and it gradually developed into a settlement. ”

When Zhuang Shaoyou heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, "If I attack Nawanzi Town, will the defenders of Beifeng come to support?" ”

Wu Liang frowned and said: "It's hard to say, if there are too few people, there is no need to come to support, and if there are too many people, they will not come to support." ”

Zhuang Shaoyou smiled and said: "Okay, I already know in my heart, I've worked hard for you, you go back and rest, I'll set off tomorrow!"

Within ten days, take Beifeng County! ”
