Chapter five hundred and two eating and drinking

The sixty grooms who were introduced by Director Yang were all poor employees of the horse factory.

At first, when they found out that they were sold to Eunuch Wei by the factory manager, the crowd was in a hurry, and then they knew that there was no choice but to hold their wife and cry. The scene collapsed like the end of the world.

Later, Eunuch Wei met them and encouraged them in a whispering voice. He gave these grooms ten taels of silver to settle down on the spot, which made them so happy that they couldn't believe it. Many people had not yet dried up when they took the silver from Eunuch Wei.

The horse workers work in the horse factory and can get a three or five tael in a year. Even if the factory director and the heads are kind, Eunuch Wei suddenly gave them thirty-two years of salary and set off to pay ten taels of silver to settle the house. The salary is higher than that of the heads, and the scholar-in-law who teaches others can't match. How can the horse workers not be ecstatic? Everyone says they have met a great charity.

Eunuch Wei, a good person!

Of course, Eunuch Wei is a good person. In the eyes of Director Yang, these grooms are useless people. At best, they are helping horse washing and horse laying workers, but in his eyes, they are the foundation of a powerful cavalry.

The basis of cavalry is not the army, but the horse.

Raise the horse well, serve it well, and pass on the skills, and spend more money.

Sixty grooms are seeds, the cavalry seeds of the Wei family army.

As for whether anyone can ride the three hundred horses, Eunuch Wei is not worried at all. His hometown, Suining, has the gene of riding horses.

When Liu Liu and Liu Qi rebelled in the early years, the Mahu of Suning was the backbone of the rebel army, and the rebel army was all cavalry. Although the horse politics is now in name only, the young and old in Suning are all familiar with riding horses, regardless of whether there are horses in their families or not, they always have to ride horses. As long as they have the chance, they always ride on horses.

When my second uncle was at home, he liked to ride a horse, and Liangchen also liked to ride a horse. He pushed it up for several generations. It is hard to say whether the ancestor of the old Wei family was a great horse thief who followed Liu Liu and Qi to conquer the world.

Inspired by the favorable conditions of controlling food, accommodation and even wearing, the sixty grooms quickly bid farewell to their families, packed up a few simple clothes and wrapped them up, followed Eunuch Wei without looking back.

They dare not move slowly, and the news has already reached the entire horse factory. If they don’t have to move faster, there will definitely be others who are jealous of the job and rely on their relationship to move to Director Yang.

Eunuch Wei only has sixty, one carrot and one pit, who would be willing to give the money he got to others?

Just like recruiting and surrendering Japanese people in the name of a sacrificial bandit outside the pass, Eunuch Wei also wrote a note to Director Yang, stamping his own seal - the seal of the internal officials and supervisors.

The content of the note is for commercial purchase, not for commission.

The first sentence at the beginning is to make a maritime plan for Your Majesty.

This is qualitative and unquestionable.

As for what does Your Majesty’s maritime plan have to do with your buying horses, it doesn’t matter.

Holding the note, Director Yang watched Eunuch Wei leave with a smile on his face.

When someone walked away, the smile on his face instantly frozen. He looked at the strip in his hand and stomped his feet violently.

He had to sue this.

He can't afford to lose this face!

There is no one in the horse, and he doesn’t feel sorry for him if he loses his horse.

What he felt distressed was his own 4,000 taels of silver.

It should be noted that most of the 4,000 taels of silver were funding from the horse factory this year. This means that he had to pay out his own pocket, otherwise several thousand people would have to drink the northwest wind.

.....

"Teacher-in-law Xie's cultivation!"

Zhao Ming was overjoyed because Eunuch Wei rewarded him with his official position - Matou.

Eunuch Wei said that as long as he, Zhao Ming, manages these sixty grooms well and leads them well, he will find a real lack of official position for him in the future.

This is definitely good news and a good future for Zhao Ming.

He couldn't stay in the county anymore. He asked the yamen's jailer to be a gang of lucky men. The friends who had been with him looked down on him, Zhao Ming, saying that he was unfaithful and betrayed his brother, and he was a coward who was afraid of death.

Some people even spoke up, and as long as Zhao Ming dared to come back, they would break his legs to pay tribute to the dead second brother Tan.

Where can Zhao Ming go in this situation?

Eunuch Wei recruited people all over the floor. He saw it and actually moved his mind, but he was embarrassed to say it.

Now that Eunuch Wei spoke by himself, he certainly agreed immediately.

If we say that this eunuch Wei is a black man and his heart is poisonous, dozens of lives are called killing without blinking, which is a response to the rumors that eunuchs will kill without blinking.

But this eunuch Wei is also very nice. If you have money, everyone will share it. If you don’t want to do it alone, you will get it as long as you do things for him. With this alone, how many officials in the world can match him?

Zhao Ming is very ardent, young and quick-witted. Since Eunuch Wei has given him an errand, he will do his best. Maybe Eunuch Wei can really agree to his promise and reward him with an official position in the future. Then he will return home in glory and be glorious. Who dares to look down on him?

………

Because there were three hundred horses and a bunch of grooms, Liangchen did not return to Lishu Village. My father's stove could not cook the meal for so many people.

With the election of soldiers that was about to be carried out, the logistics pressure suddenly became apparent.

When there are fewer people, it doesn’t feel that when there are too many people, eating, drinking, defecation and urination becomes a top priority.

After asking Xiaotian to go to Lishu Village to talk to his father and elder brother, Liangchen took people into the city in the dark, wrapped the bus shop outside the East City to place the grooms, and packed all the other people's forage and bean cakes.

After leaving Zhao Ming and a few flying tiger soldiers to take charge of the grooms, Liangchen went to the city to sleep in the inn for a night.

In the next two days, registration for recruitment is still underway.

Liangchen went to the county government office, but he didn't ask the magistrate Yan Liang why he didn't come to stand up for him that day, but asked Yan Liang to help buy food.

Finally, Liangchen probably had to bring two thousand people back to Beijing, so he had to bring his own food along the way. No hotel and inn could accommodate so many people at a time.

The largest grain merchant in Suning County is the Pan family. Liangchen thought that he would come to buy grain, but the other party would most likely refuse to sell it. He could attack Yang Laohei from the horse factory, but he could not attack the Pan family.

The two are of different natures. The most important thing is that the former has no rescuers at all. Yang Laohei is actually a piece of fat in the horse factory. But he dares to move the place, and he dares to move it. But that's all. Eunuch Wei, who is a serious businessman, dares not move either.

Yan Liang said a few words and then pushed this matter to Wang Zhubo.

The king was so slap that he simply agreed to buy grain for Liangchen.

Liangchen left a thousand taels of cash for the king, which was enough to buy two thousand people for half a month's food and food. The rest were to buy some other daily necessities. At least, there was a lot of straw paper.

After working hard for a while, it was finally time for the official election.

Liangchen personally went out of the city to select the place where the soldiers were selected. So many people could not gather in the city, and there was not such a big place.

Finally, the place was selected in Sanweizi Village, two miles southeast of Datongpu.

There is an empty river beach in front of this village, which is not a problem to accommodate thousands of people.
