After working overtime in the first month and training some time ago, the recent civil servants and military officers who completed the assessment have gone to the counties in the occupied areas respectively to assist those officials who set out before to stabilize the occupied areas.

However, not all qualified personnel were assigned to each county, and some were directly arranged in the Hou Mansion and Sun Yu's "Western Zhejiang Governor's Office" that had not been hung on the sign. In addition, Lu Liuliang was also detained by Chen Wen, and on the first day of deduction, Chen Wen personally took him to the internal meeting of the China Revival Association to attend, and at the same time he was granted the status of a preparatory membership.

The reason for this is nothing more than to make full use of people's talents. Others have gained a broader platform. After the rally, Lu Liuliang directly obtained the tasks of studying the imperial examination questions of the Qing Dynasty and those test papers that were published to the public.

According to the teachings that both hands must be grasped and both hands must be strong. While building spiritual civilization, Chen Wen naturally did not forget the aspects of material civilization.

In the first month, according to the translation of the British man Charles, the first hydraulic boring machine of water conservancy machinery was created by a hammer of several skilled old blacksmiths. Although this was not a machine produced by machinery, and it was ubiquitous in handicrafts, it was an excellent start for Chen Wen, especially since that day he could use the abundant hydraulic resources in southwestern Zhejiang to polish the inner chamber of the newly cast artillery, rather than continue to use time-consuming and labor-intensive manual polishing.

After the first hydraulic boring machine came into production, Chen Wen specially built a large water conservancy workshop on the banks of the Dongyang River. Even if there was only one hydraulic machine at first, the territory must be occupied first. As for whether his sense of crisis comes from the amazing housing prices in later generations, it is unknown.

The manufacturing of hydraulic machinery has been promoted to an extremely priority by Chen Wen, second only to the production of military equipment. As for whether the convenience of these hydraulic machinery manufacturing can make up for the losses of manual labor before the next war, he has long since stopped considering.

At the beginning of February of the seventh year of Yongli, Chen Wen, who had been on holiday almost all year round, gave himself a vacation, for nothing else, but that Wu Dengke, who had been following him for nearly three years, wanted to return to his hometown to get married, and he needed to attend the wedding. In the words of later generations, he was the leader of the unit to speak on behalf of the unit and have a wedding banquet.

Wu Dengke's hometown is located in Wukantou, Yiwu, where the old house of the Wu family in Yiwu. Wu Dengke was born in poverty and his parents died. However, after he became rich, he returned to his hometown and built a large house at the location of his old house. The wedding and wedding banquet were held there.

Wu Dengke has always been one of the most powerful military generals under Chen Wen. As the water rises, the southwest envoy's resignation will come again and he will likely get a title. Even if he is less than that, he must have a general with seals to conform to the convention of the Yongli court.

The status is getting higher and higher, and it can even be said that according to this development trend, it will inevitably be higher in the future. But to the surprise of most people, the woman Wu Dengke married was not from a wealthy family, but just a woman from a small family. However, this woman still has a certain identity, that is, her grandfather was the old man who taught Wu Dengke in Dalanshan. After learning this detail, even Chen Wen even suspected that Wu Dengke's life-long reading and literacy in the past two years was related to this girl.

In fact, as we all know, Chen Wen gave his subordinates, civil servants and soldiers a half-month holiday in the first lunar month, but according to tradition, he could not get married in this first lunar month, and even in the twelfth lunar month.

There are many reasons for this tradition, such as the Tai Sui on the first lunar month, and the saying that the head is raised is not good for children and grandchildren; there is the saying that marrying a wife in the first lunar month can harm parents-in-law, and engagement in the twelfth lunar month can defeat the in-laws; there is the problem that the first lunar month is a world of ghost marriage, which is not festive or auspicious; there is also the saying among the people that "the rat married on the third day of the first lunar month" and "Zhong Kui married a sister" on the New Year's Eve. In short, marriage cannot be obtained in the first lunar month, just like the principle of shaving a head to death in the first lunar month. Tradition is not easy to violate.

Wu Dengke has followed Chen Wen for many years, and can even be said to be the earliest one. Chen Wen will definitely give this face, not only lies in Wu Dengke's current identity, but more importantly, the friendship between the two.

By the same token, there were many senior Ming army officers who went with Chen Wen. Li Ruixin and Yin Yue, who had been fighting side by side for more than two years, were unable to go for the time being because they all needed to familiarize themselves with the defense of the town as soon as possible. However, when they received the news of the engagement, they said privately to Chen Wen that Wu Dengke's marriage was not worth it - Yin Yue believed that Wu Dengke's current status could have a better candidate, while Li Ruixin said that Wu Dengke was originally a disciple of the old man, but once he got married, he was defeated for a lifetime and became a grandson-in-law, which was really unworthy.

The jokes of these two guys are really unreasonable, but Chen Wen just laughed at them. It was just that according to the original plan, Sun Yu would come, but when things were about to come, they couldn't take time because the collection of autumn taxes last year seemed not going well.

Last year, Chen Wen made two considerable money, but the construction of military facilities, weapons manufacturing, military expansion and industrialization investment were like flowing water and constantly overdrawing the warehouses of the Ming army in Zhejiang. The autumn tax was of great importance, and Sun Yu could not attend Wu Dengke without any complaints, especially the congratulations given by Chen Wen on behalf of Sun Yu were embroidered by Yi, which moved Wu Dengke very much.

After many years of rebellion, it was the tradition of the Qi family's army that was strict and generous in military law, so Chen Wen naturally inherited it. In previous wars, the soldiers under his command could all get a lot of money and land. Senior officers like Wu Dengke would naturally rise. One by one, they are rich families with wealthy families, and their marriage is naturally small.

……………………

While the wedding of Wu Dengke, the general general of Chuzhou Town, Wukantou in Yiwu was held, an unknown soldier in Dongyang County also chose to get married on this day. I just don’t know if it was like later generations who chose to marry on the same day as celebrities, in order not only to get a little joy, but also to have more vanity.

After more than a year of military service, Zhang Yida finally fulfilled his wish to have a piece of his own land, to move the graves of his grandparents and parents to his own land and marry a wife. All this was obtained by him who chose to join the army after escaping from Hengdian Town, otherwise he might be just a slave to this day.

Next, it should be a last resort. Zhang Yida has great confidence and desire for this, because only in this way can the land and surname be passed on.

The wedding was still going on, and the two old men in the crowd were chatting as they watched all this.

"Do you know, this kid used to be a slave from the Feng family in Hengdian Town. Later, he joined the army and changed his surname back."

"Then he can't forget the kindness of the Marquis, otherwise he will be heartless." As he said, the old man suddenly remembered something and whispered to the old man who was chatting with him: "I heard that since the Feng family in Hengdian Town was searched, the old man has been haunted. I heard that Mr. Feng's evil spirit has not dispersed."

"Come on, my son works as a job in the yamen. Everyone says Mr. Feng didn't catch him at all. Who knows where he ran and is still haunted."
