Chapter 399 Zhang Zhun is going bankrupt
Compared with Wang Mingyu, Liu Hang and others, Zhou Yihang has more comprehensive knowledge and can coordinate all aspects of work. This Zhou Yihang has a very special talent, which is to sort out complex things very simply. He knows the details and prevents them from getting worse. Therefore, Zhang Zhun positioned him as a staff officer. As long as he trains well, he is a good staff officer. Now, Zhou Yihang is mainly responsible for overall coordination, and he is basically responsible for the material and personnel arrangements of the Hu Ben Army.
At this time, many people discovered the existence of Zhang Zhun and Hong Niangzi, and rushed over. They were mainly a group of old ladies, old ladies, etc. Obviously, they were very familiar with Hong Niangzi, and they treated Hong Niangzi as their biological daughter. Seeing Zhang Zhun standing next to Hong Niangzi, someone asked directly: "Xiaorong, who is he?"
The Hongmao hesitated and refused to speak.
Zhang Zhun said loudly: "I am Zhang Zhun."
A burst of exclamation suddenly came from the crowd: "Ah! Governor! He is Governor!"
It doesn't matter if the shouting is done, but as a result, the people nearby heard it and rushed over. When they fled along the way, they were of course familiar with the name Zhang Zhun. For them, the Governor was really too high and too illusory, and they had no hope of seeing Zhang Zhun with their own eyes. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhun would appear here and come here so soon.
"Xiao Rong, have you invited the Governor?"
"Xiao Rong, please help us!"
"Governor, we are coming from all over the world to join you. You have to take care of us!"
The people obviously did not expect that the Hongniang could actually invite Zhang Zhu to come here. They were immediately excited. So more people crowded in front of Zhang Zhun. They called out their own demands, hoping that Zhang Zhun could help them solve various problems as soon as possible.
The look of the Hong Niangzi became even more complicated.
Zhang Zhun waved his hand and calmed everyone down, saying in a deep voice: "I welcome everyone's arrival! It's really hard for everyone to come here from Shanxi! I promise that everyone is safer than outside and will not be disturbed. At the same time, your life will be better than before. Since you have come here from afar, I will of course try my best to take care of everyone. If you have any problems, you can tell me. I will solve the food and medical problems mentioned just now. If you think it is inconvenient to tell me, you can tell me. If you tell me, you can tell me. If you tell her, it is equivalent to telling me!"
The face of the Hongniang became even more weird.
She wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.
Under Zhang Zhun's arrangement, these people were quickly resettled effectively, and the tools and raw materials needed to repair the house were transferred. Finally, Zhou Yihang arrived in person. His ability to do business was indeed very strong, and he quickly planned the relevant arrangements. The fields were nearby, and there were also some in Pingdu Prefecture, with five acres of land, production tools, grain seeds, etc., and some were distributed and could be put into use at any time.
In addition, as long as you are willing to participate in labor, all the voyages were arranged. Near Jimoying, a large canal would be built to bring the water from the Dagu River and increase hundreds of thousands of acres of arable land. Therefore, some of them were working. The middle-aged men cost at least 40 cents a day, the middle-aged women cost 35 cents a day, and the others, as long as they can work, were 30 cents a day. They also had two meals a day.
Of course, it is impossible to be very perfect. I believe the people know this and they don’t have much demand. Zhou Yihang’s own affairs are indeed very busy. After the arrangements were made, he apologized to Zhang Zhun and left in a hurry.
With food, fields, and work, these people were relieved. So they all surrounded Zhang Zhun and said something thankful, especially those old people. Some of them kept muttering to themselves, saying that it was the Hongmao who brought them good luck. If the Hongmao hadn't followed Zhang Zhun, how could they have received such proper care!
Hong Niang wanted to defend herself and said that she had nothing to do with Zhang Zhun. Later, she thought about it and let it go. Although she really had nothing to do with Zhang Zhun, Bai Niang had it! She and Bai Niang are twins, and they have feelings for each other, and sometimes she felt strange. Could it be that Zhang Zhun wanted to call her sister?
At night, the people in Jimoying must invite Zhang Zhun to stay for dinner. It was difficult to refuse the kindness, so Zhang Zhun had to stay. These people who had just come from Shanxi all took out their skills to make their own noodles, and then put them on the essential ingredients: vinegar. The varieties include old vinegar, famous special vinegar, double vinegar, aged vinegar, special vinegar, Jin vinegar, flavor vinegar, smoked vinegar, etc., and there are many of them.
Zhang Zhun was stunned. He really didn't like to be jealous. He had eaten several times before, but he felt nauseous. However, the Shanxi people in front of him were all looking forward to him. If he didn't eat, others might be so disappointed!
The Hongniang whispered: "Eat some."
Zhang Zhun quietly grieved at her.
The Hongniang had no choice but to whisper: "I will make you something else and wash your stomach later."
Zhang Zhun nodded, picked up a big bowl, soy sauce and vinegar, and ate it whole.
He ate with his nose pinched his nose, hoping that he could avoid nausea by finishing it as soon as possible, but no one could see any flaws. He thought that Zhang Zhun's eating was so delicious, and he gave them face. Therefore, they were all very happy. As a result, when they were happy, the problem arose.
An old lady said with concern: "Governor, our Xiaorong is a good girl."
Zhang Zhun nodded and said casually: "It's indeed a good girl."
Another old lady said, "Xiaorong is no worse than other girls!"
Zhang Zhun nodded and continued to respond casually: "It's no worse than other people's girls!"
Another old lady said, "Sir, when will you and our Xiaorong hold your baby?"
Zhang Zhun was holding the noodle bowl. He couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and almost choked by the noodles. He swallowed hard and swallowed the noodles in his throat. As a result, the noodles were so hot that Zhang Zhun rolled his eyes and recovered after a while. Holding the baby with the Hongniang? I thought about it! But she might not think about it!
I couldn't help but look at the Hongmao beside me and found that she was even more embarrassed than me. She was blushing and wanted to find a place to get down. Zhang Zhun was secretly funny. This time, you were playing with fire by yourself, but you just said that as long as I came with you, don't take others. Now, you finally know how powerful these aunts are, right?
Zhang Zhun said with a smile: "Well..."
The most mature old lady said, "Governor, you can't dislike Xiaorong in our family. You should give birth to a white and fat son as soon as possible. Xiaorong in our family has a big butt and enough milk. She must have a son."
Zhang Zhun couldn't help laughing and said seriously: "Okay, okay, okay, I'll work hard when I go back tonight!"
The Hong Madam finally couldn't bear it, so she took the excuse to see her father and ran away in a panic.
Zhang Zhun shook his head and said goodbye with a smile.
The people thought that Zhang Zhun was going back to create a person with Hong Niangzi, so they naturally let him go happily.
Zhang Zhun followed the Hongniang and came to Lin Youfu's house. A large number of fellow villagers arrived, and Lin Youfu was naturally happy and also built a nest for himself. When Zhang Zhun arrived, Lin Youfu was having a happy chat with a few old people, but the Hongniang disappeared. Zhang Zhun asked in surprise: "Where is Xiaorong?"
The voice of the Hongniang lady came from it: "I'm in the kitchen to make you something to eat."
Zhang Zhun nodded and said casually: "Oh."
He really wanted to eat something without jealousy and press his stomach down so as not to get into trouble. Since the Hongmao really cooked food, he was waiting for him. Lin Youfu and a few old people were having a happy chat, so Zhang Zhun also sat down and listened to their chat. Occasionally, he even made a few words, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.
After a while, Hongniang came out with a bowl of noodles, obviously to give it to Zhang Zhun, but when he saw so many people, he was embarrassed and hesitated. Several old people were tactful and stood up to say goodbye. Lin Youfu was also very interesting and actually said, "Let's go over there to chat." As he said that, he actually followed them. So, there were only Zhang Zhun and Hongniang in the open space at the door.
Zhang Zhun shrugged, looked at the embarrassing Hongniang, and said innocently: "Hey, I didn't mess with it this time."
The red lady blushed, brought the noodles over and whispered: "Eat quickly."
Brigadier General Zhang took the noodles and swallowed them voraciously.
The Hongniang suddenly asked, "You really don't like being jealous?"
Zhang Zhun said, "Jealous and nausea."
The Hongniang said, "I don't drink jealousy and can't eat."
Zhang Zhun was stunned for a moment before realizing that what she said about drinking vinegar is actually drinking vinegar, and it has no other meaning.
The Hongniang said again: "We can take no matter where we go, we can bring anything without it, just bring a jealous jar."
Zhang Zhun remembered something and asked slowly: "By the way, you are not selling your skills anymore, what are you going to do in the future?"
The Hongniang shook her head and said, "I don't know, I'll talk about it later."
Zhang Zhun frowned and said slowly: "It would be a pity if you don't sell your skills."
The Hongniang said, "I also like to sell arts. But now the whole world is messy. Shaanxi is in chaos, Shanxi is in chaos, Henan is in chaos, Northern Zhili is in chaos, Shandong is in chaos, if we continue to sell arts, we can only go to Jiangnan. However, we, the children of the north, do not like to go to Jiangnan, and we can't get used to living there."
Zhang Zhun asked curiously: "Have you been to Jiangnan?"
The Hongniang said quietly: "I was there when I was very young. At that time, my mother was still there... We have been to Danyang, Wuxi, Yixing, Jintan and other places in Jiangnan... My mother unfortunately died of illness in Jintan. From then on, we never went to Jiangnan again."
Zhang Zhun remembered that she was from Hongyang Sect and asked slowly: "Is your mother from Hongyang Sect?"
The Hong Niang shook her head and said sadly: "No. My mother is not from Hongyang Sect. She doesn't want us to continue the Hongyang Sect. We have done her will. There is no Hongyang Sect in this world."
Zhang Zhun remained silent.
The Hongniang was silent.
After eating, Zhang Zhun silently handed the bowls and chopsticks to Hongmao. Hongmao took them over and took them into the room.
After a while, the Hongniang sent Zhang Zhun outside Jimo Camp and said gratefully: "Zhang Zhun, thank you!"
Zhang Zhun smiled and said, "You helped me abduct three thousand people, and I haven't thanked you yet!"
The Hongniang said hesitantly: "If more people come, do you still want it?"
Zhang Zhun said affirmatively: "Of course."
The Hongniang said with some concern: "That's ten thousand people, I want it?"
Zhang Zhun said with great certainty: "I want it for 100,000!"
The Hongniang was relieved.
Zhang Zhun asked curiously: "Can you bring so much population?"
Hong Niangzi said: "When we passed by Zhangde Mansion, Daming Mansion, and Dongchang Mansion, many people wanted to come with me. They couldn't survive when they were there. However, I don't know if you want so many people here, so I didn't agree."
Zhang Zhun said, "Don't worry, ask them to come."
The Hongniang said, "Okay! Then I will arrange someone to pick them up."
Zhang Zhun nodded, turned his head over, suddenly turned his head, and said with concern: "By the way, be careful, Xiaoyou needs your regular care!"
The Hongniang was slightly stunned, and then subconsciously said, "I'm not afraid."
Zhang Zhun nodded, said nothing, and rode a horse and left.
As soon as she returned to Ziyuan, Yang Yinghan came to him.
Yang Yinghan rarely comes to Zhang Zhun for anything. This is the first time this year. The reason is very simple. He has no money. Zhang Zhun continues to expand his army, expand his army, and adds three to four thousand troops. The silver in Yang Yinghan's hand is like mercury pouring into the ground, and it disappears. The army is like this, let alone the navy? The navy originally spent money like flowing water, which is not enough.
The cavalry was also very expensive, especially in the early stages of its establishment. The various construction projects of Laizhou Prefecture were also very expensive. Resettlement of refugees also required money. Now, Yang Yinghan still had less than 30,000 taels of silver. If she did not remind Zhang Zhun, the Hu Ben Army would go bankrupt.
"silver……"
Zhang Zhun subconsciously touched his chin,
When Zhang Zhun thought of silver, his first reaction was to go to Jiangnan. Jiangnan had money. As long as he chose the right place and then cut it hard, he would definitely have no problem earning hundreds of thousands of taels of extra money. The problem is that he cannot leave Laizhou Prefecture for too long. As a commander, he often leaves his jurisdiction and will have big problems, especially Laizhou Prefecture has not been completely stable yet. It will take at least half a month to go to Jiangnan. It will not work for half a month to leave Laizhou Prefecture.
Therefore, to earn extra money, you can only start from the surrounding areas of Laizhou Prefecture. It is best to go back and forth in a few days. To the east of Laizhou Prefecture is Dengzhou Prefecture, there is no oil and water, there is only one Zhaoyuan Gold Mine, which is far from meeting the needs. Only Qingzhou Prefecture in the west has a little oil and water. Soon, Zhang Zhun's eyes fell on Qingzhou Prefecture, west of Laizhou Prefecture.
Here is a good target for robbery:
