Xianyu Infrastructure, I have a lot of troops in my hands

Soon, the yamen runners heard Bai Lingjun's roar coming from the side hall: "Xie Zezhi, you know why I'm anxious, but you're still keeping me in suspense, you old bastard, I..."

Although Bai Tingjing cursed fiercely, his voice could be heard by half of the government office, but at this moment his face was as bright as if the clouds had cleared and he smiled rarely.

Xie Ze listened to him scolding for a long time, but he didn't get angry. He stroked his sparse beard, raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Tingjing. The look in his eyes meant one thing: Go ahead!

Bai Tingjing's anger was gone and his mind became clear. But when he thought about the fact that Xie Ze was Xie Xian's cousin, his courage weakened a little.

Suddenly, his eyes were filled with a kind and friendly expression: "Zezhi! I can only rely on you..."

Captain Zhao Zheng, who was guarding outside the door, looked shocked. He slowly turned his head to look at the sky, then looked back and forth at County Magistrate Bai and County Cheng Xie.

It's over. The county magistrate has been under too much pressure these days and finally went crazy.

Xie Zezhi twitched his lips slightly, "There's no need to do this!" He turned his back and rubbed his arms, "Xie Xian said that the coal mine's charter will be drafted in the next few days. If the county lord is needed, please help me."

Turning back, Bai Tingjing followed closely behind him. He nodded hurriedly after hearing what he said: "Of course, such a big thing cannot be taken lightly."

"Don't worry, as long as my niece needs it, I will apply to the county lord for the tax rate. What else?"

Xie Zezhi had never seen Bai Tingjing so attentive. He hadn't even spoken yet, and he had already thought of how to reduce taxes? He coughed lightly and said, "It's just about the various noble families in the county..."

Bai Tingjing understood, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes, "Don't worry, if they dare to obstruct, they will be disobeying the imperial edict!"

Xie Ze twitched his lips. There was no need to do that. He just wanted to say that Xie Xian was planning the coal mine industry chain. Such a big cake could not be eaten alone. The required materials, various materials and equipment could not be supplied by the Xie family alone.

She planned to find interested merchants in the city to bid, similar to modern engineering bidding, and she was not going to play any open or secret bidding.

As long as the supply is timely, the goods are good and the price is low, it doesn't matter which one it is. But she didn't have enough reputation, so she could only ask her uncle to persuade the most prestigious Bai Lingjun to help set up a bureau.

Unexpectedly, before he even opened his mouth, Bai Tingjing was already full of murderous intent. Ugh! Was there a misunderstanding?

Today is the day for Blackstone Guard to recruit new members.

It was a rare sun day, and the thin snow that had fallen a few days ago disappeared without a trace after being exposed to the sun.

The large parade ground in the center of Black Stone Guard was crowded with people. Although the families of hereditary soldiers were military households on the surface, in the eyes of various families they were the most sought-after people to lead troops.

Of course, these military families also changed with the decline of their masters. Some of the generals who once shone brightly in the Warring States Period started from humble beginnings. They are a legacy and a continuation of the tradition.

In times of peace, they hide among the people and wait for the time of great strife to come again. This is the way of survival for the family of hereditary soldiers.

Niu Er held a large bowl in his hand and squatted on a log outside the parade ground. He would stick his head out to look at the excitement inside and take a bite from time to time.

Si Ji next to him put his hand on his forehead and said, "I say! Can't you finish eating first and come back!" The fact is that right next to them is the place where people line up to recruit new members, and these teenagers are at the age where they cannot get enough food. It is hard for Niu Er to avoid being noticed when he slurps here.

"Hey! It's not my fault! It's because our food is good. I've eaten too much recently and my stomach is a little upset!" Niu Er tilted the bowl as if unintentionally.

There were shouts of surprise from the team over there: "Meat porridge! It's meat porridge!"

"really?"

"I even saw a fish head!"

"Wow! There are fish!" Gurgle...I'm so hungry.

Sure enough, the sound of swallowing saliva came one after another. Si Ji took two steps away. He really didn't want to stay with Niu Er, who was a show-off.

The guards who were maintaining order nearby saw that everyone was attracted by the meat porridge and were not surprised: "Everyone line up. If you are really selected, you will have meat porridge every three days.

He caught a glimpse of the pleased look on the Niu team's face, stood up straight and raised his voice a little: "Boys, whether you can eat meat depends on your ability!"

Si Ji covered his face. Niu Er had been showing off for a long time, but there were still people cooperating with him. Liu Yu, who had just arrived, had already laughed out loud.

"How did you write the plan that the lady asked for a few days ago?" Si Ji asked hurriedly when he saw Liu Yu coming.

He and Niu Er pondered for half a day before they could come up with thirty or fifty words, but Liu Yu was different. Liu's ancestors were a real family of generals and soldiers. In addition to martial arts, they had also dabbled in military tactics since childhood, so naturally they knew more about reading and literacy than them.

And relying on this background, Liu Yu was promoted to the position of team leader in less than a year. This time, when the Thousand Machine Battalion was replaced, Liu Yu and several other young generals were selected as candidates and were transferred back specifically to prepare for the new lord to take office.

The captains and group leaders at the middle and upper levels naturally have to be loyal to the new king.

He and Niu Er are both over thirty years old and have hidden injuries. Since the female monarch doesn't abandon them, I don't know how long they can stay in the leading position of this team.

But Liu Yu is different. This kid is in his prime and was born in the Shenjiying. The title of the Shenjiying is similar to the Wuzu in the Warring States Period. They are the elite among the guards and most of them serve as short weapons of the main general.

As the saying goes, when it is their turn to go into battle, they either follow the officers into the front lines, or the enemy has already reached their doorstep and they are in imminent danger.

Similar to the modern Zhongnanhai bodyguards, they are close to the master and have smooth promotion channels. This is why everyone tries every means to squeeze into the Shenjiying.

Liu Yu smiled slightly and said sincerely: "I didn't write much, just some of the annual selection schedules." What he didn't say was that he boldly wrote down some of his own ideas. He was nervous and worried that he would displease the lady.

But two days passed and there was no movement from above. He waited here so early because he wanted to know the result as soon as possible.

"Hehe, it's useless to think about that. After all, every year when we pick boys, it's still the same old tricks. Nothing new!" Niu Er said nonchalantly.

They have been selecting new talents for several years, and they can guess whether they are capable or not just by taking a quick glance. It's really meaningless.

If it wasn't for the opportunity to show off his meat porridge and encourage these guys to work harder, he wouldn't have bothered to eat dust at the camp gate.

Si Ji looked at the two men and saw that they were thinking about something. He raised his eyebrows and said, "I heard from the brothers on East Street that they have been busy in the woods outside Taozhuang these days. They said they were setting up the venue!"

Seeing Niu Er and Liu Yu's eyes sweeping over, he chuckled, "I just don't know if it's used to select new recruits."

"Tai! You old jerk, why didn't you tell me earlier if you knew?" Niu finished the porridge in the bowl in two or three gulps and ran back to the camp in a hurry.

This is really curious and it really makes me want to do it.

Si Ji and Liu Yu looked at each other and walked towards Taozhuang. Niu Er's anxious voice came from behind them: "Put my bowl aside for me first."

"You two wait for me, hey!"
