Chapter 109: Letter from Home

"Zhao Ye! There is indeed a telegram, you see! ”

The leader took the hot soup handed over by the brother next to him and drank it, and then hurriedly handed over the envelope in his arms.

After taking the envelope, Zhao Ming couldn't wait to look at it carefully.

The number of words is not much, only a few sentences, and a total of fifty words, but this is really a lot of money.

The content is very concise, there is no so-called reminiscence, after all, it is really a thousand words.

But Feng Yunyun wrote a few things in the letter, one of which was that she was fine.

Second, Feng Yunyun found a business opportunity and set up a textile factory in Xi'an Prefecture, which is currently doing thriving.

Zhao Ming can understand this point of the textile factory, because during this period, the cotton output in Guanzhong occupied the first place in the country, and it was the first to introduce cotton, a cash crop, from the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Now that there is a severe drought in Guanzhong, it is true that the cotton output in various places has dropped sharply, but some large households have hoarded a large amount of cotton before, and the purchase price will be very cheap.

But Zhao Ming was a little confused, now Fengjiazhuang is seriously understaffed, how can it still be a double-line layout?

It is a bit difficult to protect the safety of Fengjiazhuang, not to mention that Zhao Ming also instructed Chang Wei to go out to purchase food, which will also share some of the manpower.

Even if Fengjiazhuang had a shop and manpower in Xi'an Mansion before, it would not be enough.

However, in the letter, the third thing made Zhao Ming suddenly enlightened.

Third, after Fengxiang's victory, a military master surnamed Liu once came to the door to ask if he was able to accept a group of dismissed soldiers.

Seeing this news, Zhao Ming was a little stunned.

Who is this military master surnamed Liu, Zhao Ming doesn't need to think about it to know, it must be Brigade Commander Liu Wu!

If you think about it carefully, it seems to be normal, and the giant bandits in Guanzhong have been destroyed.

It is said that after the abduction bandits were captured, thousands of bandits were publicly executed, and bandits from all over Guanzhong began to spontaneously bow their allegiance.

Now Guanzhong can be regarded as restoring a certain degree of tranquility, and there must still be bandits, but they are all kittens and dogs.

The severe drought has put Shaanxi Province under tremendous pressure, and the number of troops has also been overburdened for a time.

And the priority target of the demobilization is naturally the miscellaneous military town Song Army that was later absorbed.

This group of people was originally recruited to deal with the bandits in Guanzhong, but they didn't expect Liu Wu to give him such a big gift.

In fact, at the same time, Fengjiazhuang -

Looking at it, today's Fengjiazhuang does not need to close the door every day, and there are still few homeless people who dare to approach it easily.

Just because there are men with guns on both sides of the gate, and even on the wall, there are many young people with guns guarding back and forth.

And if a knowledgeable person takes a casual look here, he will know that this is definitely not what an ordinary dealer should be.

These people all have straight waists, and even if they are chatting and joking with each other, their eyes are still scanning their surroundings.

In the distance, a convoy of donkeys purred towards Fengjiazhuang.

The guard at the door made a little inquiry and confirmed the identity of the other party, and then let him go directly.

"Tut, chief, now our Zhuangzi is very different."

"That's it! Otherwise, what do you think we are going to Xi'an to purchase this time?

There are more than 500 people, people eat horses and chew horses, and there are many brothers who have nothing to do. The conscience of this group of profiteers was eaten by dogs, and they charged us so much money! ”

Chang Wei scolded in his mouth, but he shut up without saying a few words.

Because of how far they entered the Zhuangzi, they saw the lady standing there with several old people in the Zhuangzi to greet them.

Seeing this, Lao Chang was a sensible man, so he hurriedly jumped out of the donkey cart and greeted the brothers and signaled that the things should be sent to the storehouse first.

After doing this, he stepped forward and saluted Feng Yunyun.

"The Changhu Yuan is a family of brothers, so you don't have to be so polite, if your husband knows, she will definitely scold me for being ignorant."

Feng Yunyun hurriedly helped Chang Wei up.

It's just that she said so, but Chang Wei didn't dare to be presumptuous.

Zhao Ming, who seems to be mentioned casually by Madame, is actually not a deterrent?

This time, he not only brought back the goods, but also brought back the news from the grassland.

"Madam, you are pregnant, why don't I need you to come out to greet me when I come back." Chang Wei said with a smile

Feng Yunyun just smiled, and then changed the topic, "Hehe, the batch of goods in the permanent care home was bought?" ”

"Hmmm! Madame, this goods are purchased back.

However, the guns bought on the black market are really not in good condition, many of them are old sleeves, and there are some earthen guns.

The price of these profiteers is still expensive, but we have no other way now, there are so many more brothers, and there are still so many guns.

I can only hold the top for a while. Chang Wei shook his head helplessly.

Although he took over the hundreds of brothers of Brigade Commander Liu, Zhuangzi's armed forces were greatly improved.

But people won't give away guns!

The guns in the army, they are all officials' families, how can they be easily taken out.

"It's okay, that's it, we don't want to rebel." Feng Yunyun smiled lightly and shook her head.

"Recently, the permanent care home has worked hard, and tonight the permanent nursing home will hold a banquet and take the brothers to eat and drink all the way.

Recently, I've been bothering you, and the last few shipments to the permanent care home don't need to be bothered. I have already asked the Li brothers to do the work for me, and you will rest in the Zhuangzi for a while. ”

At first glance, this seems to be sympathetic to his subordinates, and it is true that recently, he has often traveled north and south for the food and various scarce materials in the Zhuangzi.

But Chang Wei chuckled in his heart.

This Li family brother retired from the army, and it is said that he was a company commander before, and he had fought bandits with Zhao Ye before.

Now he has also become the second-in-command of the guards in Zhuangzi, in charge of more than 100 brothers.

But on weekdays, I don't deal with this person, and it's not that I am an enemy, but the other party is very quick and thoughtful.

Therefore, there is still a sense of urgency.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, thinking that he had already met a human spirit when he was doing things under Zhao Ye.

Feelings, this lady's means of grasping people's hearts is not bad~

"Madame.... I... I know. ”

Chang Wei said that he quickly cleaned up his mood, and it was not his turn to do anything about the madam.

And he didn't dare, because another piece of news had already shocked him early.

"Madam, in addition, there is also a telegram from the north from the master's side, this is an envelope, you can take a look!"

Chang Wei took out a letter from his arms and handed it over.

After taking the envelope, I saw Feng Yunyun's face, which had always been cold and calm in the Zhuangzi on weekdays, showing a bright smile as if the sky had passed after a rain.

The temperament of the superior who has gradually gathered recently is also crumbling a little bit, and it seems that only when she sees this kind of letter will she reveal her truest side.

This is the second time this situation has been common, because there was also news from Zhao Ye's side a month ago.

But the lady's face was very worried.

But this time he could also think of why.

Because the first time he saw the telegram, his expression was even more wonderful than Feng Yunyun's, not happy but shocked and incredulous.

There was only one sentence in this telegram.

A certain has gained a firm foothold in the grassland, running for hundreds of miles, defeating dozens of tribes, capturing thousands of herdsmen, countless cattle and sheep, and nearly 1,000 people controlling the strings.

Now everything is fine, don't read it!
