Kong Youde had no way of knowing these things about Laizhou Prefecture, but even if he knew, it would have no effect on him. The result he wanted was that Li Jiucheng and Geng Zhongming, who were in Laizhou for a generation, blocked the imperial army for half a year.

As for whether they can win Laizhou, it is no different for him. If they can't win Laizhou City for more than half a year as in history, their goal will be achieved. If they are lucky and win Laizhou City, it will be even better. They will have a longer time in Dengzhou Exhibition.

As for Li Jiucheng and Geng Zhongming's defeat in the war within half a year, it was not within his consideration. Just thinking about it, how could the 20,000 army lose?

At this time, in the inner hall of Kong Youde, there were a few people standing there, including the old butler Zhang Dafu, the account room of Kong Youde, and a few people who Kong Youde didn't know. I guess they were the people who were found by the butler Zhang Dafu after the explanation the day before yesterday.

Looking at the few people brought by the butler Zhang Dafu, Kong Youde observed them one by one. They all looked very ordinary and had no big characteristics. Then he looked at Zhang Dafu, and Zhang Dafu said, "This is your future boss. Master Kong, the general of Shandong. It is your honor to be able to work for the general's office. Why don't you pay a visit to the master!"

When the few people below heard this, they hurriedly knelt down and said, "The villain has seen the general!"

Kong Youde looked at them and said lightly, "Get up and reply! They all report their names, ages, and what they did before, and say one by one."

"The villain is called Xie Yu, a native of Haizhou Wei, who was forty-five years old. He used to be the accountant for the master of Qianhu Station. Later, the Tatars occupied the Haizhou Wei. The villain was unwilling to do things for the Tatars, so he ran to Dengzhou."

"The villain is named Lin Yushi, a native of Fushun. He was thirty-six years old. He used to run an inn by himself. It was because the Tartars came that he fled to Dengzhou City."

"The villain is called 6 Ming, a native of Tieling Wei, twenty-nine years old. He was the teacher of Wei Xue. After Tieling Wei was lost, he came to Dengzhou City to have a meal."

"The villain is named Ling Tian, ​​and he is from Haizhou Wei. He is thirty-three years old. He was originally responsible for the business in Dengzhou City for his family, but he didn't expect that his hometown was called Tatars and his family could not escape."

"The villain is called Sun Tianhe, a native of Chenyang, forty-two years old. He used to sell fur business in Liaodong to the mainland. Later, he was targeted by the Penglai County Magistrate and charged Xiao's case with affair with Jiannu. All the goods in the family were confiscated. If the general had not entered Dengzhou City, Xiao's would have been locked up in prison now."

Kong Youde was quite satisfied with Zhang Dafu's selection of these people. He basically had some business foundation. The most important thing is that they were from Liaodong like themselves. Now that their home in Liaodong has been occupied by the Tartars, they went to Dengzhou to make a living.

Moreover, they are not living a good life now, and they are all thin and not long. Although they are dressed neatly, they can be seen that their clothes and pants are washed clean and a little white, and they are very worn.

It can be said that if these people follow them, their lives will definitely be much better than before. In terms of loyalty, the locals in Shandong must be higher. Kong Youde glanced at Zhang Dafu with praise. This old housekeeper does have some ability, and it goes without saying that they know what kind of person they want.

Then he said, "You are all people carefully selected by Uncle Fu. I believe that you have a clear idea of ​​what you will do in the future. As for the benefits and disadvantages, you should also be very clear about them.

Now, I will give you another chance to choose whether to stay or exit. It is still time to withdraw. If you don’t withdraw now, you will be members of my General Office in the future. At that time, there will be no chance to regret it!"

Unexpectedly, Ling Tian said without thinking, "Sir, I have already thought about it. My life will be the general in the future. I won't ask for anything else. If the general catches the Tartars in the future, please let his subordinates kill them in person to avenge their family. His subordinates go through fire and water for the general, and they will never refuse."

Kong Youde has a good impression of Ling Tian because he has a person who has no desires and no desires, which is the most worrying thing, because you can't control him at all, and maybe he will be a 25-year-old at any time.

Like Shi Lingtian, he has a strong desire for revenge. As long as he can help him, he will be loyal and will not betray him.

The other people also expressed their opinions, and they all made up their minds. They all had a skill. Although they would not be able to starve to death at any time like ordinary refugees, they would definitely be more than one level lower than their previous quality of life.

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. They must want to return to their original living standards, and following Kong Youde to do things is naturally the best way at present.

Seeing that several people expressed their opinions, Kong Youde could see that they were sincere. Then he took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to everyone, "You can take a look at this thing first, figure out the terms of it. If you don't know anything, you can ask me."

"Liaoning Trade Names"?" The people below were all literate, and looked at the six words written on the paper, and were a little confused.

A few people began to look at the constitution that Kong Youde had written for half a day, but Kong Youde sat on a stool and tasted the fragrant tea that the people had just brewed.

Kong Youde worked hard to learn from the civil servants to taste tea, but he still couldn't taste any artistic conception. The reason why he was still drinking was because there were no drinks in this era, and there were no fruits in this winter. Compared with boiled water, the tea tasted a little bit.

The few people finished reading it quickly. In fact, the charter was very simple. They wanted to establish a Liaoning business. The boss was naturally Kong Youde, the "Shandong General" in front of him, but the boss on the surface was Shen Fei, the accountant of the Kong Mansion.

Shen Fei has always been in the accounting office and rarely shows up in public. Moreover, he is very low-key in his work, so almost no one knows him outside, so he is very suitable for this. Moreover, he is the management of accounts, and managing a business name is his professional project.

The most important thing is that, like the butler Zhang Dafu, Shen Fei was also an extremely loyal person. When the Zhenjiang victory was in great victory, Kong Youde saved his life.

The situation at that time was that the Tartars had tied him up and were about to use him as a target to practice arrows. If Kong Youde had not cut off the Tartar archer to death, or if he was a moment later, he would have gone to see the King of Hell, and later he would have followed Kong Youde wholeheartedly.

Because he was too low-key, Kong Youde's original memory had very little about him. If Uncle Fu had not mentioned it to him later, he would not have remembered that there was such a person.
