Chao Gai felt that he was talking too much with great interest, but it didn't matter. Ambition is a double-edged sword, and it was just right to show it at this time. He rolled up the map, put it in his arms, and patted the young man on the shoulder.

"Brother Xu, Chaojiazhuang is like a carrot and a pit, and there is a shortage of people everywhere. Chao has committed a treasonous act. I wonder if you are willing to come and help!"

The young man murmured for a moment and then came back to his senses. He suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahaha, my little brother Xu Guanzhong has seen through this dark court. He is disheartened and retreats to the mountains and forests. I thought that for the rest of my life, I never expected to meet the hero."

Before the laughter stopped, the young man took two steps back and bowed to Chao Gaina: "Brother invites you, how dare you disobey me? I am willing to fight on the battlefield, even if I die, I will have no regrets."

Xu Guanzhong?

Chao Gai was stunned and secretly said that it was indeed you. In the past few days, he had also thought about who the young man named Xu was, and also guessed that it might be the master Xu Guanzhong.

I just wasn't sure that my luck would be so good. I spared Zhang Heng, a tough gangster, and wooed me, but a great talent immediately came to join me.

Now that he heard the young man's own admission, Chao Gai was overjoyed and hurriedly stretched out his hands to support him: "Hahaha, Guan Zhong, you're finally here, get up quickly."

"Oh, brother, have you ever heard of my little brother?" Xu Guanzhong was a little surprised and confused.

"Hehehe, in his early years when Chao traveled around the world, he heard many times about his brothers. They are from Damingfu, first-class masters, upright, and versatile in both civil and military affairs." Chao Gai went back to his old routine and praised those he knew well.

This person is definitely an expert in the world. He knows everything about the world without leaving his home. His appearance pave the way for Yan Qing's future choices. Xu Guanzhong's philosophy of life affects Yan Qing's future destiny. Stick to your own principles and never

There is no need to be cynical or cynical if you want to join the trend, let alone be swayed by various external factors, stay firm in your heart and wander around the world!

Wen Huanzhang heard Chao Gai praise this man highly a few days ago, and explained with a smile: "Brother, you don't know something! In order to find you, my lord went to Daming Mansion a few days ago. You traveled with your mother. Unexpectedly,

But here..."

"Meet each other." Chao Gai quickly picked up the conversation and made Xu Guanzhong laugh heartily: "You have also thrown yourself into a trap. From the moment you go up to Liangshan, you will never be able to escape."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but burst into laughter!

Xu Guanzhong followed Huanzhang as if complaining, and found out that Chao Gai had specially transferred to Daming Mansion, and asked Yan Qing, the prodigal son, but there was no clue.

Chao Gai looked at this young man with an refined temperament, and after pondering for a moment, he solemnly said: "Brother, you are loyal and courageous. I know your own talents. Your coming to join the Chao family army will be a great help. From now on, I will worship you."

Brothers are the fifth strategists in the army, and together they build a steel lion."

Xu Guanzhong knew how important the position of military advisor was, and he shook his head in flattery: "Brother, I am less than thirty years old and have not made any achievements. How dare I stand on an equal footing with several military advisors? I am willing to lead an army to fight..."

"Hey, brothers, don't be humble." Chao Gai looked at him seriously and sincerely, pointing to the military advisors around him one by one: "My military advisors are very resourceful, and the Chao family's military affairs are discussed together, but they have special skills.

Military Advisor Wu is best at attacking people's hearts with surprise, Military Advisor Xiao is good at arranging and arranging soldiers and civilians, Military Advisor Wen is best at internal affairs, Military Advisor Li is unparalleled in the world in martial arts, and can command heroes to fight, but you are good at fighting on the battlefield, so don't refuse."

Wu Yong, Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang, and Li Zhu were stunned, and then they imagined that what Chao Gai said was really what happened. They couldn't help but laugh with emotion and persuaded them one after another: "Yes, my lord is never wrong in judging people. Brother Xu, don't refuse.

"

"When we raise troops in the future, we will be busy with affairs. How can Guan Zhong take care of himself alone?"

Xu Guanzhong was very happy to see how he took turns to persuade Wu Yong and others. Others were afraid of sharing the power in their hands and would not like it, saying bad things and ostracizing them, but Chao Jiajun was so kind. King Chao Tian took it seriously.

Chao Gai pulled Xu Guanzhong back and said without a doubt: "Brother, Yan Qing has often told me about your abilities, saying that you are full of ambitions but unable to display them, and also regrets that you missed the opportunity, so please don't refuse."

"Well, I will live up to my elder brother's high expectations!" Xu Guanzhong nodded solemnly, and then handed over to Wu Yong and others: "Thank you for your support, brothers."

Wu Yong, Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang, and Li Zhu all said that their brothers were humble. As their own people, the two sides exchanged greetings. Han Shizhong, Guo Sheng, Han Yong, and the four Taishan generals also came over to meet the new military advisor.

After everyone finished the ceremony, they talked about business again.

"Brother, it's been two months, the village has changed a lot!" Wu Yong was the first to speak.

"Let's go, don't stand here," Chao Gai waved his hand and walked towards the commander's tent first.

The five military strategists followed closely, and Han Shizhong and Guo Sheng led their troops to follow. After a few people entered the commander's tent, the guards in full formation were all around.

…

Chaojiazhuang is people-oriented and has developed rapidly. Due to the good employment and resettlement treatment, the surrounding people have relocated and gathered to help and accommodate people fleeing from various places.

Since the weather gradually warmed up a month ago, the number of refugees in Jiangnan has increased sharply.

There are more than a dozen restaurants and village shops in the surrounding areas of Gangneung Mansion. They collect all kinds of intelligence and provide direction for the people fleeing from Jiangnan. Most of them are overwhelmed poor people, carrying the elderly and supporting the young, leaving their homes and fleeing. During this period,

At least 30,000 to 20,000 refugees poured into Chaojiazhuang.

In addition to the 30,000 to 20,000 people who formed villages to protect the villages and shops, the total permanent population of Chaojiazhuang is nearly 200,000. In addition, there are tens of thousands of floating population, which is no different from ordinary capital cities.

The larger the population base, the greater the dividends.

There is a lot of strong labor, and the defense construction of the city wall is progressing rapidly. The three-layer city wall of rammed earth, stones, and blue bricks is already four feet high, and it can be completed in two months at most.

Military factories, breweries, clothing and textile factories, etc. are always recruiting people.

Each has its own people such as Tang Long, a leopard, Zhu Gui, a monkey in the dry land, Hou Jian, a general in stone, and Shi Yong, a general in charge. It has developed rapidly in recent times.

Business is also relatively smooth, with total net income exceeding 400,000 taels of silver last month.

If you have money, buy, buy, buy, and the purchases from caravans from all over the world have not stopped!

Privately, the secret business with the government was going on steadily, and there were close contacts with the state. Since there was not much money in Jeju, the governor of the state, Shi Xianggong, who had been an official for many years, had relatives and friends who came forward to help or directly seconded him.

After a few transactions at Jiangling Mansion, it was officially on track.

Jiangling Magistrate Yang and his brother-in-law tasted the sweetness, but were not found to be unscrupulous. From the initial small quarrels, they tried every means to make money. Trucks of grain for disaster relief were sold mixed with armor and other supplies.

Under the cannonballs formed by Chao Gai's money, the prosperous Jingzhou fell. In order to make money, the officials' minds became active. A glimpse of one spot will reveal the whole leopard, revealing the many holes in the decay of the imperial court.

In addition, the institutional defects of the Song Dynasty, all resource allocation was in the government government. The power of recruiting soldiers was erected.

The Jianjiajun relied on the people everywhere, and secretly recruited soldiers to buy horses.

Field camps, defensive army, statistics, the war soldiers were nearly 100,000, and a full 100,000. The newly joined Xu Guanzhong was shocked, and the chicken was completely stunned.

How can it be so decaying?

Tongjiazhuang soldiers are strong and strong. Fortunately, there are enough armor purchased from Liangliang City and the government. There is no shortage of shortage for the time being. Tongjiazhuang is also buying various materials and putting it into military factories to gradually become self -sufficient.

Two times after Gai Gai came back to Liangshan, knew that the island was developing rapidly, and listened to Xiao Jiasui again. Wu Yong's report was very happy. Whether it was the three armies or logistics teams, everyone was fighting hard, all of them, in healthy competition

In the following, the flourishing development of Jiajiazhuang.

For example, recruiting recruits smoothly, whether it is the main battle or the defensive army, water, steps, and ride a few battalions to gradually complete and invest in training.

Several kinds of crossbow after his wife Li Qingwan have been produced in batches. After actual combat testing, accuracy, the range exceeds the crossbow.

"Lord, things such as crossbow need to be strictly confidential." Wu used serious reminders.

Tong Gai thought about it after thinking, so he ordered: "In this way, the craftsmen who are in contact with the manufacturing and assembly of bow and arrow parts have improved treatment, separated management, and can not leak messages. By the way, what is the reserves of pacifer wood?"

"Lord, there is sufficient wood reserves!" Wu Yong quickly answered.

"Infantry Yuan Lang's second battalion several times, shipped back to a large number of palaces, wild boars, wild deer and other livestock caught a lot, and more than a hundred white -horn rhinos."

I was interested in Gai, and I knew not only so, and continued to order: "You have to send it to the hand, so that the newly formed infantry will take turns to train there.

Xiao Jiasui recorded the command and said with a smile: "Brother, Saburo always complains, the talents over the restaurant are scarce, and the expansion is a bit slow."

"Well, why are you still lacking?" He frowned.

"Brother, no candidate in the town." Xiao Jiasui reminded him, and added: "Qingzhou Linjiao's apprentice Cao Zheng was delayed because of the matter."

"So that's so!" Ji Gai nodded with his chin.

Mr. Jin Jian, Li Xun, heard the lack of hands, and recommended it with a smile: "The owner, I have a nephew named Li Yan, who has followed Jingnan heroes to fight for righteousness since childhood.

With the improper courage of Wanfu, wait for the poor way to return to Jingnan to make him play. "

This old -fashioned nephew is not ambiguous at all!

Wu Yong, Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang's eyes slightly weird.

However, he did not have any, but scolded himself to lose his best. In the original trajectory, Li Xie's nephew Li Xun, the five members of the five members of the martial arts and martial arts, known as Jishan Five Tigers.

"Okay, if it is true, it will be reused as the military division said!"

"Hahaha, the owner is relieved, and the poor way will never be arrogant." Get the letter, Li Xun laughed. The name should be early, and the case is the same.

At this moment, there was a burst of bursts in the direction of the mountain, like a thunder, not like, very weird. The key is that there is a tremor on the ground!
