Chapter 108 Before the food conference begins

During the Ming Dynasty, the system of the Yuan Dynasty was inherited. Farmers in the northern Zhili, Shandong, Jiangsu and Anhui areas in the north acted as horse breeders, feeding stallions and paying horse foals. Later, they ordered prefectures and counties near Beijing to renovate foster horses. The horse breeders were burdened with heavy burdens. At that time, they said that "the food in Jiangnan is the most affected, and the horse in Hebei is the most affected."

Then such a system naturally caused civil unrest. The horse-husbands were different from the farmers who used to hold picks and hoes in the farmland. They had horses, and the motor power of several horses was extremely powerful, and they came and went like the wind. Therefore, the "Ma-husband Rebellion" led by Liu Liu and Liu Qi took a long time to suppress it.

Moreover, the leaders of the Mahu team this time were not all local heroes, but also a Wen'an student Zhao Liu, with his younger brother and 500 servants, joined. Generally speaking, if scholars were involved in the rebellion and rebellion, the nature was always different. Tens of thousands of cavalrymen were engaging in the central part of the Ming Dynasty, which was a huge disaster. At that time, the Ming Dynasty's evaluation of this matter was already the so-called "rebellion that overthrows the country". The elite soldiers and generals were dispatched to encircle and suppress. The Mahu people who had no field battles and attacks naturally failed.

Liu Liu, Liu Qi and the student were either killed in battle, or caught and beheaded, and killed nine clans. Now these people have become the topic of conversation on the streets and alleys, the so-called Marshal Liu Family and Deputy Marshal Zhao.

However, in Jiang Feng's memory, this is not the case. In Yun Zhongyue's novel, the Liu brothers and Zhao Li both appeared as great devils. The horse man, who was as erect as the wind, called himself a white-clothed magic weapon, and Zhao Xiucai was originally Wen'an, a big family at that time.

The Liu brothers grabbed his wife and daughter and tied them to the horse with a rope. If they did not agree to rely on them, they would immediately trample on the horse and die, and as a result they had to join the army. However, after joining, because of their original foundation and the keen observation ability of scholars, they immediately became one of the leaders.

However, in the field battle, he was defeated by the border army's cavalry and died under the sword. However, his image of being quite strategic and bold was already in Jiang Feng's mind. When he heard that a person he knew appeared, his eyes immediately glowed and he involuntarily said the words "white-clothed magic weapon" and "Master Zhao".

Of course, he lowered his voice and whispered there. When Zhao Xiucai heard these two words, he seemed to be struck by lightning all over his body, and said in a trembling voice:

"There is no need to mention the name of disobedience. When our whole family was killed in the nine clans, we ran out to some families, and some went to Liaodong as refugees and were taken in by the guards. I stayed there..."

Jiang Feng's thoughts were ignited, but suddenly asked an irrelevant word:

"What's your relationship with Yang Da?"

"He is my cousin, and I grew up when I was a child."

"Old Zhao, Lao Zhao, are they close to you?"

Zhao Xiucai's face gradually calmed down. He heard Jiang Feng call him Lao Zhao. According to his long-term follower of Jiang Feng, this shows that Jiang Feng has no intention of killing, but when he was in a state of excitement just now, he said almost everything, so he could only tell the truth at this time.

“I have been the one who has been raised since he was a child…”

With a "bang", Jiang Feng slapped his face, but smiled and said:

"Old Zhao, no matter what you hide from me, I will never blame you. But since I am a member of my Jiang family, I will naturally have to work hard for my Jiang family. Do you think so?"

When he heard Jiang Feng express his words of forgiveness clearly, Zhao Xiucai kowtowed in the carriage with ecstasy, crying and unable to say a word. Jiang Feng poked his head out of the carriage at this time and looked at the soldiers from the Beijing camp on both sides.

Because there were seven or eight large cars in total, the soldiers had already climbed up. Zhang Liang and Chen Dahu were chatting there, laughing from time to time. They were obviously quite happy. Jiang Feng called Zhang Liang over and ordered directly:

"You and Dahu took the brothers from Jingying to greet the people in Wulou Village. They said that Zhao Xiucai lived a stable life here and did not have to worry about it. In addition, Zhao Xiucai felt that the children in Yang should read and read, and were ready to take them to the capital to attend a private school, which was more delayed than being on the mountain.

After saying that, he followed Zhao Xiucai, who was stunned behind him, and said:

"Old Zhao, do you have any tokens? Give it to Xiao Zhang and Dahu so that people on the mountain will not misunderstand."

Zhao Xiucai wanted to say something, but when he saw Jiang Feng's eyes, he was still taking out a small pendant from his arms, as if it was made of pecans and handed it to Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang looked at Jiang Feng and Jiang Feng said:

"There must be some work on the mountain that has not been finished. You and Dahu will bring the brothers from the Warriors camp to help, and don't let the children freeze."

While speaking, he clenched his fists with one hand and clenched it with the other hand. The sign language means treating the child as a hostage, but don’t do anything else. Zhang Liang nodded and shouted. Jiang Feng had already given enough money to the carts behind him. So they all pulled the soldiers as instructed and rushed back to the Wulou Village not far away.

When Jiang Feng returned to the carriage, Zhao Xiucai looked bitter and wanted to say something. Jiang Feng raised his hand and said with his fingers:

"I don't want to continue asking about your origin. I won't pursue what you and Wulouzhuang have done. But since they are all people bought by Jiang Feng for money, I will take on your business, but I want to be at ease. I always have a hostage in my hands. Besides, it's good for children to read some books."

Zhao Xiucai smiled bitterly. Although his boss had no rules for doing things, he grasped the key points. As long as there were hostages in his hands, he would not worry about the disobedient of the more than a dozen families in Wulou Village. Anyway, someone just needed to be obedient. However, Jiang Feng did things to this level, which was a perfect end. Zhao Xiucai just hesitated for a moment and then kowtowed heavily.

When Jiang Feng returned to the capital, he brought seven or eight children. It turned out that it was more than a dozen families in Wulou Village that heard that the children in Yang were going to study in the capital, and they all clamored to let their children come too. Zhang Liang was quite anxious in this regard, so he brought these children here.

After seeing these children, Zhao Xiucai had nothing to think about. After returning to the capital, he bought a house beside the Ma brothers according to Jiang Feng's arrangement, opened the yard and settled the children in. This was also Jiang Feng's intention. Let these children be with the Ma brothers, one is to protect and take care of them, and the other is to control them.

The children were "a little profit" and spent money to go to private schools in Nancheng. They also went to a little profit in the afternoon to help. This was a treatment that most children in families do not have. For a moment, those who knew the situation began to say that Jiang Feng was a great charity. Zhao Xiucai, who was familiar with the inside story, knew in his heart that he had more than a dozen families in Wulou Village had been completely tied to Jiang Feng, and they were prosperous and damaged together.

After seeing the children on the road, Zhao Xiucai returned to the capital and wrote a letter, found someone who knew what he said and sent it to him. He knew that Jiang Feng would definitely read the letter, but there was nothing to worry about. The letter said that the families in Wulou Village must follow Jiang Feng loyally. When writing the letter, Zhao Xiucai smiled lost his heart. He was loyal. He kept doing this. Isn’t this a matter of course?

On the 20th day of the 12th lunar month, Huifeng Tower was busy in the lobby and kitchen before the weather was cold. Although Dongjia Jiang Feng’s mind was at the village in Wulou Mountain recently, Tiedan had already come here on a fast horse and brought some list of materials to buy. Jiang Feng gave the money without saying a word.

Zhao Xiucai was also strange, but he was still worried about everything. Bao Wen stood there, his usual energy and loud voice disappeared. Although he was dressed neatly, he sat there non-stop without a stick of incense, and had already run to the backyard for more than a dozen times.

Manager Wang on the other side was no longer as kind as usual. He shouted at the people beside him, and just tossed and made a little light appearing in the sky, Jiang Feng appeared in front of the door yawning. After returning home, the separation was better than the newlyweds, and the young men and women were naturally entangled, and the spring night was short.

However, Su Guanyue also knew the importance of the matter this morning, so she had already climbed up when she was ugly. The skylight in the sky knocked out Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng, who originally wanted to sleep in, walked over with a horse very depressed.

As soon as I entered the hall of Huifeng Building, I saw Fatty Bao sitting there fidgetingly, and suddenly felt unhappy. I walked over a few steps, slapped her forehead and asked loudly:

"Lao Bao, what are you doing when you go to Chunhelou this morning?"

Bao Wen had never seen Jiang Feng be so vicious to him. He was shocked and thought nothing and replied:

"Go to cook..."

"You have been cooking for decades, why are you panic? Aren't you cooking this morning? You're afraid of a ball!"

After shouting, Jiang Feng yawned again and said to Manager Wang:

"Old Wang, yell, I'll go to the back and sleep for a while."
