252 The East Wind is Coming
"Why are you laughing at, aren't you?" Seeing the two of you laughing, Rida Muko suddenly became unhappy.
There are also several Qiang teenagers in Dashan who served in the army under Lu Haoshan. In addition to being delicious and delicious, they also have one or two taels of silver per month. As the captain, Dashan has more, one or five coins, which is an envious person in Qiang Village. Because Qiang people live in Dashan, live self-sufficient and have no way to make money. Most of them rely on hunting and selling tea to make some money. They can't make much money in a month. The crops sold are cheap, but the daily necessities they buy are not cheap, so life is not generous. The easiest thing is that as the daughter of the patriarch, Rida Muzi owes Lu Haoshan dozens of taels of silver in white tiger skin. Because they are tight, it took more than two months to get it.
Rida Muzi didn't even appreciate the silver price of one taels a month, but when she accidentally learned that the instructors, namely Tang Qiang, Zhao Gongchang and others from the private guards, had seven to ten months of silver, and she suddenly felt uneasy. Ten taels a month, and that year it would cost 120 taels a year, more than one hundred taels. This was an astronomical number for the Qiang people, and it was also a considerable amount in Rida Muzi's eyes. Rida Muzi was moved all of a sudden. She was straightforward and couldn't help but "set the accounts" with Lu Haoshan.
Lu Haoshan smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Yun'er, they are professionals. Do you know what a professional is? That is because they will keep working here, doing it with all their hearts, but you are improvised. You will not teach it for a few days. How can you give you Yueyin? This is how you don't want to teach you anymore. If you don't want to give you a big red envelope, you will definitely not treat you badly. OK."
"No, I want Yueyin." Ridamuko refused completely and immediately spoke, "I can also work hard, and I will do it with my heart."
"You can't joke, are you? Being a soldier is not a joke. Do you know what military orders are like a mountain?"
Hida Muzi said disdainfully: "Of course I know, my father is still a little toast. Isn't it just listening to you? Yes."
"You, a woman, have suffered hardship back then? Can your family agree?"
"In our Qiang people, women can support half of the sky. Everyone in the village has to listen to my grandma. What's the matter? As for my father and others, this is my business. Just say whether you agree or not."
There was an extra master to train him at once, but he was his own. Of course, Lu Haoshan had no objection. He heard this and nodded: "If your family does not object, in principle, I have no objection."
Rida Muzi was delighted and immediately said nervously: "Then, my future cousin, I will also need ten months of silver a month."
"I will give you ten taels to my own people."
"Ada and Aji are here, and they are also very good at fighting. You have to give them monthly silver. It doesn't take ten taels to do it, one tael and five cents a month for each person. Is that OK?" Rida Muzi's eyes rolled a few times, and immediately "explored" another way of wealth.
Lu Haoshan nodded without hesitation: "Yes, but there is a problem, that is, when it is necessary to use them, they must obey the orders like soldiers."
"Okay, my future cousin, will the monthly money be paid from this month? Look. I have been teaching for a few days..."
I met a little wealthy fan. When Rida Muzi mentioned silver, his eyes were like radiant, and he became energetic. It’s okay that Rida Muzi had superb archery skills, while Ada Er was like two beasts from the mountains. They were all talented. He could accept three masters for only more than 100 taels of silver a year. Lu Haoshan laughed in his dreams, so he didn’t agree with it.
"Of course, but there is a condition."
Rida Muko immediately asked, "What are the conditions?"
"Get your cousin's consent first. If she doesn't agree, everything will be free."
It was a bit inappropriate to let Ridamuzi enter the military camp. Lu Haoshan was afraid that Lin Yuexuan would be unhappy and would mess with him, so he simply handed the problem to Ridamuzi. This beautiful girl was arrogant, cold and charming, and then acted like a child. There were some solutions, so Lu Haoshan simply asked her to solve this problem.
"Okay, I'll look for my cousin right away." After Hida Muko finished speaking, she ran away like a gust of wind. For her, she was really coming and going.
Lu Haoshan and Li Nian looked at each other and shook their heads, then continued to talk about the selection of elite camps, that is, scout camps.
I don’t know what method Rida Muzi used, but she really convinced Lin Yuexuan to agree to join Lu Haoshan’s army. Of course, although she agreed, Lin Damei rolled her eyes on Lu Haoshan a lot. Not only did she repeatedly ask Lu Haoshan not to let her cousin participate in dangerous tasks, she also carried out "non-violent non-cooperation" actions on Lu Haoshan. For example, Lu someone knocked on the door in the middle of the night to steal fragrance and jade. The door that he usually knocked on whenever he knocked on him would not open.
This made Mr. Lu feel very depressed.
However, Lu Haoshan didn't care about depression. There were too many things to do now. He assisted the Zhao family in purchasing spring tea, training their subordinates, recruiting talents, secretly purchasing grain and grass, preparing firearm workshops, and building blast furnaces. It can be said that he was very busy. The marriage between Lu Haoshan and Lin Yuexuan was also held in late February. The preparations for the wedding also took a lot of effort to do Lu Haoshan, which can be said to be very busy.
Fortunately, Lu Haoshan is not short of money for the time being. With the full assistance of Li Nian, Zhao clan and Lin family, there are so many military households that craftsmen can send, and everything is progressing very smoothly. As a former top craftsman, Lu Haoshan's talents have been further released, training troops, building various tools, starting blast furnaces, building large water trucks, etc., they have become omnipotent in the eyes of all the subordinates. The spring farming military households also feel the kindness of the new Qianhu. The constantly rotating water truck brings the water in the river as it turns, flows into the canal through a wooden trough, and finally flows into the dry fields to irrigate the crops. It is simply a magical thing.
When Lu Haoshan was designing, he had the idea of killing two birds with one stone, which could also conceal the existence value of the flood truck.
The Qianhu Adults are not only handsome, elegant and talented. When those women saw Lu Haoshan one by one, they seemed to be bees seeing flowers, and kept sending autumn waves in secret, which made Zhao Min and Lin Yuexuan come to deliver fruits and soup every now and then, for fear that Lu Haoshan would let those women go away if he accidentally......
After more than a month of hard work, Lu Haoshan could finally breathe a little relieved: the selection work has been completed. After discussion, the battalion formed as a special training was finally called the scout camp, with a 300-strong rank. It is regarded as the cornerstone of Lu Haoshan. People like Li Dingguo, Dashan, Sun Xiong and others entered the scout camp for more stringent training. They will become the sharp knife in Lu Haoshan's hands, and the soldiers of Wen Chong Qianhu also expanded more than 3,000 people. With more people, Lu Haoshan and Li Nian also separated them according to the characteristics of these soldiers and trained them according to different types of troops. Even the Zhao family's children who used flying pigeons to convey messages were also organized into a communications team.
In addition, the firearm workshop has been built, and Zhao Yuqing has also sent the craftsmen he has collected one after another, with eight more. Lu Haoshan has ordered them to use some farm tools to repair some weapons and other things, one can practice, and the other can also cover up the eyes.
Lu Haoshan listed the firearm workshop as a forbidden area, and ordinary people could not enter and exit at will. Including military households, Lu Haoshan sent former picket members to guard it, and there was also the intention of watching the craftsmen to prevent anyone from escaping and leaking the secrets here.
In fact, Lu Haoshan's worries were a bit unnecessary. All the craftsmen sent by the Zhao clan were picked out from the refugees, each of them was hungry and said they were great craftsmen. When they saw the rice and meat, their eyes were glowing, and they wanted to lick the bowls clean. It looked like a starving ghost reincarnated. It was probably because they were hungry. There was food, drink and monthly money here. Not to mention escaping, they couldn't even drive away with sticks, and they worked hard to work. Lu Haoshan was generous and they didn't have to urge them to do their work, as if they were afraid that Lu Haoshan would not be satisfied with driving them away.
There are two main reasons why we did not make weapons: one is that it takes time to refine the best iron, and the other is that we have not found the backbone. Although there are seven or eight craftsmen and more than ten craftsmen in the garrison, none of them are skilled and the work is difficult to carry out. Now Lu Haoshan puts his hope on Zhao Gongchang, hoping that he can bring back Xu Xiang, who is proficient in firearms.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is not available.
Before we knew it, it was February 26th, the auspicious day of the zodiac, and it was suitable for marriage. The wedding of Lu Haoshan and Zhao Min was held on this day.
Although Lin Yuexuan was once the sister of a thousand households, she was also a kind of military household. She was not as good as a chicken when she got out of the way. When she was in trouble, she saw the true face of those relatives. Even when she got married, she only invited a few relatives who would never leave her. Then most of them were Wen Chong's military households. Unlike Zhao Yuqing, who was knowledgeable and had friends from all over the world, she was very scattered. The Lin family married their daughter and the Zhao family married their daughter, which was not a little bit different.
Fortunately, the people of the Lin family didn't care. Besides, now they married into the Lu family as a concubine, and it was not worth celebrating. Lu Haoshan deliberately kept a low profile, but even the low profile became the focus. On the day of marriage, the commander Han Wenden of the commander of the capital sent someone to send a pair of jade pendants as a gift. The commander of the Liliwei Dong Jian asked the housekeeper to send a set of gold jewelry to celebrate. In addition, the other four thousand-household heads of the Lizhou Guard, Zhang Yunhui, the magistrate of Jiangyou County, Cao Hu, the chief clerk of Jiangyou, and the ones who knew met at the Hanwenden birthday party also sent someone to congratulate him. It can be said that he gave him enough face.
After marrying a beautiful woman, Lu Haoshan was in a good mood. He smiled all day long, and was entertaining the VIPs with a smile, making witty comments, and then he cheered and sang loudly. He drank it all in one go, and was very busy. Fortunately, Li Nian, who was very capable, helped to take care of it, and everything seemed neat and organized.
Just as Lu Haoshan was entertaining guests, Li Nian suddenly appeared beside Lu Haoshan, leaned down and whispered in Lu Haoshan's ear: "Dongweng, good news, the east wind is coming." (To be continued, please search for astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
