Life is rare in seventy years old, and that is only possible for people with conditions. For poor military households, fifty is already very good, and many people even live less than forty years old. Yang Kaide is just fifty years old this year, and he is a relatively long-lived person in Yangjiatun.
Yang Kaide didn't want to celebrate his fiftieth birthday, but Zhang Zhun insisted on celebrating it a little. The reason why Zhang Zhun insisted on doing it was to repay Yang Kaide's kindness. After all, he raised himself. He should not forget his roots in life. Of course, the scale of the procedure would not be very large. It was his family, as well as several nephews from Huang's mother's family. They were all helping Yang Ruifeng do things and were considered close relatives.
The meal was very rich. Now Yangjiatun is not as nervous as before, especially the Yangjia. Yang Yinghan has prepared a lot of private dishes, including sea cucumbers, crispy chicken, home-cooked tooth sliced fish, Laoshan mushroom stewed chicken, raw abalone, fried oyster yellow, fried conch, shrimp roasted cabbage, yellow croaker stewed tofu, as well as grilled squid, pork trotters, three-fresh pot stickers, cabbage meat buns, etc.
Of course, the five major pots of seafood braised noodles, pork ribs, rice, mackerel dumplings, seafood jelly, and chicken soup are not missing. This is a special dish of Fushansou. When everyone's days were pretty good in the past, these dishes must be held on major festivals. But later when everyone was poor and had no financial ability, these dishes slowly disappeared. More than a hundred years have passed, and these dishes have finally returned to the table, and there are two tables.
Everyone was eating lively, saying that they had never eaten such a good meal. The food in the guard team was mainly big fish and meat. It was important that everyone eats enough calories, so they definitely didn't have that exquisiteness. Zhang Zhun also ate with relish. Huang's four nephews were very active, and they all pestered Zhang Zhun and wanted to join the guard team. They were all stimulated by the brand new military uniform and military flag. But Yang Ruifeng couldn't get rid of them, so Zhang Zhun had to politely refuse.
Since the refined salt purification business has been on track, Yang Jiatun's life has been much better. Most of the military households now have people working with Yang Ruifeng, and even Sui Mingyi is no exception. Sui Mingyi's two sons are also helping to collect private salt and work very vigorously. A few days ago, Yang Ruifeng also increased their wages to one tael of silver a month. Sui Mingyi had long forgotten Wang Shixin. He would give him the benefit to him. In fact, it was that simple.
Yu Nanti's mysterious master was able to pay silver on time every day. No matter how much private salt Yang Ruifeng sent, he would never owed a penny. Zhang Zhun admired the other party's sincerity in doing business. His interest in the master behind him was getting stronger and stronger. Unfortunately, she went to Shanxi and would not come back in a short period of time. It was unlikely that she would meet.
Now Yang Yinghan has almost 2,000 taels of silver left in his hands, and the twenty silver crocks have not moved. Compared to his previous life, which had no money on his body, it was really a difference between heaven and earth. Even Huang seems to be a little younger. Unfortunately, Yang Kaide's legs cannot recover from anyway. Yang Kaide is open-minded about this. As long as the younger generation has a promising future and the older generation is disabled, what does it matter?
Of course, compared with the wealthy families, such a small amount of silver may not be enough for a month. It is said that in the wealthy areas of Jiangnan, some people pay red-card girls more than 500 taels of overnight expenses. However, you can't get a fat man in one bite, right? Yang Ruifeng is working hard to increase the output of refined salt. As the output continues to increase, profits will continue to grow.
During this period, everyone in the Yang family was very busy, and there was not much time to get together. After two glasses of rice wine, everyone's face became much rosy. The most obvious manifestation was that Yang Gansheng and Yang Lingxue, the two brothers and sisters, even the rats had a few taels of meat, and now they didn't snatch them up. They became much more famous. The reason was that they were not as hungry as before.
"Brother Feng, when will the wedding be held?" Zhang Zhun asked with a smile.
"September." Yang Ruifeng replied shyly.
Yang Kaide has agreed with Chen Guoxi that Chen Guoxi's daughter Chen Xiaolei will marry Yang Ruifeng, and the wedding date is scheduled to be in September this year. This is obviously to make way for the marriage between Zhang Zhun and Yang Yinghan. After all, if Yang Ruifeng does not get married, Yang Yinghan will not be able to get married. Zhang Zhun agrees with this marriage. Chen Guoxi is an ally of Yang Kaide, and his four sons, although they have not joined the escort team, are also the backbone of Yang Jiatun. The four of them are also involved in the secret link of salt purification.
"There are five months left!" Zhang Zhun said with a smile.
"No hurry." Yang Ruifeng answered calmly.
"You don't have to worry, I'm anxious!" Zhang Zhun said meaningfully.
Yang Yinghan suddenly blushed.
Everyone smiled knowingly.
Zhang Zhun is indeed a little anxious. Nothing else. These days, girls are very particular about chastity. If they don’t get married formally, Yang Yinghan will not give him that. At most, they will drag their hands and not even kiss. He is a man with strong energy and needs to be harmonized by yin and yang. He practices himself every day so that he has no strength to think of bad thoughts. It is also because of this. He is so tired that he has no mind to think about women.
Yang Ruifeng pondered and said, "Then... do it together?"
Zhang Zhun smiled and shook her head.
It is better to let Yang Kaide make the decision in this kind of thing.
Yang Kaide was not in a hurry and said with a smile: "Don't talk about this, don't talk about this."
So everyone stopped talking about it and talked about other topics.
Looking back on the earth-shaking changes in the past few months, everyone has a lot to say, and in such a happy atmosphere, there is absolutely no shortage of topics. While talking and laughing, everyone has already eaten almost the same food. The mouse burped and kept saying that it was no longer possible, no more, which made everyone laugh.
Yang Ruifeng and Zhang Zhun toast, and the mouse also came to join in the fun. The three of them actually didn't drink enough, but they just finished the remaining white wine. Zhang Zhun's cheeks were red, and Yang Yinghan hurriedly brought him a bowl of bitter tea to sober him up. The bitter tea was picked by himself, and it was genuine and bitter, so the effect of quenching wine was naturally very good.
After dinner, Yang Yinghan went to wash dishes and packed up his hands. Zhang Zhun and Yang Ruifeng were chatting, and the mouse was interrupting each other. The issue they discussed was related to Fushan City. Now that Fushan City has implemented martial law, ordinary people cannot enter, Zhang Zhun can only try his best to learn about Fushan City from others.
Although the military households in Fushan City are very poor, Fushan City itself is actually good. It has the sea on three sides and the mountains on one side. Only the narrow land in the north is connected to the outside world, which is a standard place where easy to defend and difficult to attack. If others want to attack Fushan City, they can only start from Jimo County. Similarly, if the military households rise up and rebel, the officers and soldiers want to reinforce, they can only come from the direction of Jimo County.
Zhang Zhun's eyes had already seen the strategic deployment after taking over Fushan City.
The battle of the guards now cannot be said to be a real rebellion. Aoshanwei and Laizhou Prefecture should not interfere too much, and there is no need. However, if the guards conquer Fushancheng and kill Wang Shixin and others, they will be a real rebellion. Aoshanwei and Laizhou Prefecture will definitely react. The commander of the Aoshanwei is Zhao Yinying, the prefect of the Laizhou Prefecture is Sun Zhizuo, and the garrison of the Laizhou Prefecture is called Li Chengdong, and Zhang Zhun does not know much about these three people. Among them, the first one to react must be Zhao Yinying, the commander of the Aoshanwei.
Zhang Zhun asked casually: "Zhao Yinying of Aoshanwei, who do you have information?"
Yang Ruifeng said: "As far as I know, Zhao Yinying only comes back to Aoshanwei once a year. When Kong Youde rebelled, he moved his small family to the relatively safe Qingzhou Prefecture. Most of his time now is in Qingzhou Prefecture. Unless Wang Shixin asks him for help in advance, it will take at least ten days to wait for him to receive the information and mobilize troops to come for reinforcements."
The mouse also said, "That's right, that's it."
He further introduced that Zhao Yinying returns in October every year. The main purpose of returning is to collect rent. Wang Shixin has three or four thousand acres of land, and is the largest landlord of Fushan. As the commander of the guards, Zhao Yinying has more land under his name, at least tens of thousands of acres. Since Zhao Yinying has not been in Aoshan Guard for a long time, the guards of Aoshan Guards have no combat power at all, so there is no need to worry at all. However, Zhao Yinying has a more troublesome hidden danger, that is, this person has a good relationship with the Hengwang Mansion.
In addition to King Lu who settled in Yanzhou Prefecture, the court also had a King Heng in Qingzhou Prefecture. Of course, King Heng's fame and power cannot be compared with King Lu, and he has more resources than King Lu. However, in any case, King Heng is a vassal king and belongs to the ranks of the royal family. If King Heng is offended, I believe the court's reaction will be more intense. Of course, this is just a prevention. The vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty must not interfere in local government affairs or control military power. Even if Fushan City is in trouble, King Heng may not be able to turn the situation around.
While talking, Yang Yinghan was already done.
Because I had dinner early today and the sky was not completely dark, Zhang Zhun suggested to Yang Yinghan and others to take a walk to Yintan.
Yang Ruifeng and mouse understood it and found an excuse to leave.
Zhang Zhun and Yang Yinghan walked slowly along the beach.
In fact, the situation between the two of them is really a bit strange. It seems like they are first love, and they seem very pure. Until now, they have been dragging their hands and never even kissing them. Every time they see Yang Yinghan shyly, Zhang Zhun feels embarrassed and reckless. It doesn’t matter whether they are good people in front of others, but in front of her, they always seem to be gentler.
The two of them looked for some topics and talked slowly, and soon arrived at Yintan.
Yintan is on the east side of Hongshi Beach. It has rugged rocks and uneven terrain, but the beach is very snow-white, and every grain of sand seems to be snow. The terrain here is much more complex than that of Hongshi Beach, with high and low stones. However, in terms of the scenery on the sea, it is more interesting than Hongshi Beach. In the past, some foreign tourists would come here to watch the sea, but of course there is no more.
