The sturdy life of crossing

Just like the ancient times of the earth, some important topographical maps are related to military strategy, which cannot be seen by ordinary people. Jian Leyang sorted out this map. In addition to consulting a lot of books and discussing it carefully with Father Jian, he also got it from He Yunzhang. A lot of relevant materials came and were compiled, and only then did the current finished product come into being.

The mountains, rivers, and official roads are all clearly outlined on the map, and the scope is extremely wide. It leads to the foreign Yidi in the northwest, and enters the sea in the east. The Yaojiang River and its tributaries are clearly shown on the map, allowing the People can see it at a glance.

Jiang Zuofei was in the Qingyao Gang, and he had seen the map about Yaojiang, but it was still not as clear and intuitive as this one. Now he believed what Zhang Meng said. Jian Leyang is not only a martial artist, but also a person with great ability Seeing that he is usually very idle, leaving things to Zhang Meng and his subordinates, he swung his hands and became the shopkeeper, but he didn't expect to make such an important thing in private, no wonder Zhang Meng and the others are loyal to him dedicated.

"What is the purpose of the boss taking out this map?" Jiang Zuofei couldn't help asking.

Jian Leyang drew across the entire Yaojiang River with his hand, and drew a line from where they are now. The destination of this line is the sea to the east. The Yao Gang has been working for these years, but they are still shocked: "Boss wants to go by sea? But the sea is very risky, and ordinary river ships can't sail on the sea." How to develop shipping based on the current conditions of the Canghe Gang?That was just fantastic.

"That's right, not having this condition right now doesn't mean it can't be done in the future. Think about it, which one is more difficult to develop shipping than to take down the entire Yaojiang River? Hehe, I'm afraid they are similar, so it's better to do both, and wait for the shipping to take it." After the game, Yao Jiang doesn't seem so important anymore."

"To do this, of course, the difficulty is not lower than winning Yao Jiang. First, you need money, and second, you need ships. Regarding sea ships, Brother Jiang must know more about this than us. I will ask Brother Jiang to help us find out. For a moment, money, of course it will be taken from other people's mouths, we will be private salt."

It would be fine if the Emperor Qingming was a Ming emperor, Jian Leyang reluctantly refused to compete with the imperial court for this profit, but the reality is that if he does not rob it, this profit will not fall into the imperial court's hands. If He Yunzhang hadn't appeared before , as the county magistrate of Xindan County, he has long wanted to put his hand into this area.Now, there is a better candidate, that is Jiang Zuofei, this line does not need to be put on the bright side at all.

Jiang Zuofei took a deep breath, and Zhang Meng and the others looked at Jian Leyang with piercing eyes. Zhang Meng had been envious of the huge profit of private salt before, but he had little business, so he could only make small troubles, and no matter how big he was, he couldn't get involved , the boss is right, if you want to get money the fastest, the best way is to sell private salt.

"Where did you get the salt?"

The corner of Jian Leyang's mouth ticked: "The problem of salt is best solved, not to mention that I have a salt mine in my hand now, and after opening this route to the East China Sea, I can provide you with as much salt as you want."

He checked, and found that sea salt has not yet been developed. The current salt is boiled from salt mines, and the cost of materials and labor is high, which is far less cost-effective than sea salt.

Jiang Zuofei, Zhang Meng and the others all gasped, the boss actually had a salt mine in his hand, and even boasted how much it would cost in Haikou, I'm afraid only the boss dared to say this, Zhang Meng thought that the boss could come and go freely in the deep mountains The ability, guessed: "The boss found a good salt mine in the mountains. He discovered it in Xia Tian, ​​and it's useless to keep it." Jian Leyang smiled.

"Okay, I'll do it!" Jiang Zuofei gritted his teeth and said, he needs to accumulate capital to fight Cheng Laogou, and the current Canghe Gang can't do it at all, and it's not enough to just fight Cheng Laogou alone, the key is Cheng The court people behind the old dog can only get rid of the whole Qingyao Gang, and at present, it seems that the method provided by Jian Leyang is the most feasible. Although the risk is huge, what can be done without risk?

Jian Leyang was still smiling. He believed that Jiang Zuofei would be tempted, and he would never get off his thief ship. Such a small expression amused Jiang Zuofei and Zhang Meng.

Jian Leyang thought that maybe the world he lives in is a parallel space of the earth, so the general terrain and features are still similar except for some rivers with slight changes in direction. Wealth is far beyond the reach of river transport.

After the conversation about this matter, Jiang Zuofei still returned to Huarentang to recuperate, but his attitude was obviously much more positive, and his whole body was full of fighting spirit, which made Grandpa Zhao more pleasing to the eye, and asked his grandson to talk to this Zuo What, what kind of work was assigned to him, Jian Leyang calmly spit out two words: private salt, Grandpa Zhao's pupils shrank obviously, obviously he didn't expect his grandson to be so bold and dare to dabble in this area.

"Brother Yang, are you really going to do this?" Grandpa Zhao hesitated rarely.

"This is the fastest way I can think of to get money. Jiang Zuofei told me one thing. Why did the leader Wei die? It was because the deputy leader Cheng colluded with the barbarians to smuggle supplies and was discovered by the leader Wei, so he took the initiative." Jian Leyang Tell the truth.

"What? How dare this old dog?" When Grandpa Zhao was furious, he alarmed Dr. Hua and ran over. What is this Zhao Tieniu doing so suddenly? Do you think I'm angry?

Doctor Hua also showed seriousness when he heard this. The Qingyao gang's affairs were originally puzzling, so it made sense. They didn't suspect Jiang Zuofei, after all, they knew something about Wei gang leader. Well, it is absolutely impossible for Gang Leader Wei to do such a thing, but now that Gang Leader Wei has gone and the power is in the hands of Deputy Gang Leader Cheng, it is hard to tell.

Grandpa Zhao was so angry that he scolded for a while. Jian Leyang felt that if the master of Fu Gang Cheng was here now, grandpa would definitely kill him with a knife. But because of this, grandpa no longer objected to him meddling in the private salt business, and even left in person. He went to the county town, talked to the surname Qu for a long time, and finally came back with a token, and casually threw it to his grandson, telling him to do whatever he wanted.

Jian Leyang looked at the familiar unknown plant patterns on it, and felt warm in his heart. With the help of his grandfather and the others, his actions and the development of the Canghe Gang would be smoother. This token passed through his hands and then passed into Jiang Zuofei's hands , Not long after that, Jiang Zuofei disappeared with the token and a stack of bank notes, and the next time he reappeared, it might be to report good news to Jian Leyang.

The heavy snow that lasted for several days finally stopped. Jian Wenyuan went out for a run, and came back after a while, and shouted all the way, "Brother, the old house was crushed by the snow, parents, luckily our family built a new house Move here, otherwise this winter will be in big trouble."

Jian Leyang ran over to take a look, and it really collapsed. Jian's parents were also saddened to see it, after all, they lived in it for more than ten years, and it was ruined like this!

"It's because the snow is too heavy. If I still live here, I will definitely shovel the snow in time, so this situation will not happen. But it's okay if it collapses. If the old one doesn't go away, the new one won't come." Jian Niang thought Very open.

But this year's snow is too heavy. I'm afraid that some people will not be able to hold on. After this winter, I don't know how many people's houses collapsed and people didn't survive. Father Jian said worriedly, "It will be very troublesome when the spring floods come next year." "

Tian Lizheng also came out, no matter how cold it was, he had to come out to check if there was any accident, besides the old house of Jian Leyang's family, there were two thatched huts that collapsed. Both Father Jian and brothers Jian Leyang went to help, and lifted the house from inside. The people who came out were almost frozen, but fortunately, the house collapsed and everyone was fine.

When the work in the village was over, Jian Leyang, the leader of the Canghe Gang, had to ask about the situation in the gang, so he ran out of the village again. The snow on the road was too thick to use the ox cart, so he walked away on the snow alone.

The people in the gang are in good condition. Even if some houses collapse, they will move into the gang’s house built on the pier first. Now the gang is much more united than before Jian Leyang took over, so everyone helps each other in case of trouble , Those thorns are still working in Zhuangzi.

Jian Leyang asked Zhang Meng and the others to take the gang members to see if there was anyone in the town who needed help. If they didn't help with snow removal, it would be very troublesome to travel, so he took some people to Zhuangzi.

The situation in Zhuangzi is indeed much more serious than that in the town, because this Zhuangzi has been around for many years, and the heavy snow this time caused many houses to collapse. Even if some precautions were taken in advance, they could only prevent part of it. Jian Leyang brought When the people arrived, Xie Wenyi was busy leading the people in the village, his whole face was almost blue from the cold, it could be seen that he had been busy for a long time.

"Boss, you are here. A lot of houses have collapsed, and people with frostbite injuries are all gathered together. I have invited a doctor to come over to look at them. The conditions of some tenant farmers' houses outside are not very good. I asked Mama Ding to move them in first." Zhuangzi is here." Xie Wenyi was worried that Jian Leyang would have opinions, but at that time there was nothing he could do, so he issued such an order, and fortunately, Jian Leyang made everyone in Zhuangzi obey him, so this order could be carried out.

Although he had suffered a lot before, this snowstorm made him see more clearly what kind of life ordinary people live, and it touched him greatly. In comparison, it seemed meaningless at all. Although the whole body was about to freeze, Xie Wenyi didn't have the slightest intention to stop and go back to rest.

Jian Leyang looked at Xie Wenyi with bright eyes and smiled: "You have done a good job. It is important to save people first, and other things can be discussed later when the situation improves. Find someone to make some hot soup to dispel the cold. What medicinal materials should be used? If not, let someone go to the gang or Hua Ren Tang to pick it up, and Hua Ren Tang will put it on the account of the gang.”

"Okay, I'll thank the boss for them." Xie Wenyi hurriedly found someone to help, and Jian Leyang assigned the people he brought with him to Xie Wenyi to help him, while he himself looked around and offered help where he needed help , He has great strength, he can turn over the collapsed wall with a few strokes, and move out the people and things inside.

Those tenants all know Jian Leyang's identity, because they usually work for the Zhuangzi, and it is not clear who the Zhuangzi belongs to, and the Canghe Gang has not treated them too well in the past six months. Compared with before, every day, Zhuangzi now The people in the village helped them get out of trouble again, and provided them with a place to live, as well as food and drink. Some old tenant farmers wiped their tears on the spot and wanted to kowtow to Jian Leyang, but Jian Leyang hurriedly stopped them.

Influenced by the people in the village, the young and middle-aged tenants who escaped from trouble also joined in the rescue and snow removal operations, and finally met a group of official servants. Jian Leyang saw that the leaders were He Yunzhang and He Liu from a distance.

"Did you run out yourself? Sixth Brother He didn't stop you?" Jian Leyang smiled when he saw He Yunzhang approaching

"Where can I sit still, I don't feel at ease if I don't come to see, and with me watching, these people don't dare to be perfunctory. They have come all the way, and you, Zhuangzi, have done the best." He Yunzhang looked at those on the side It can be seen from the tenant farmer's respect and gratitude to Jian Leyang, which is from the heart.

"There is a cold-dispelling soup that has been boiled in Zhuangzi, go and drink a bowl, so as not to freeze." Jian Leyang suggested.

"Okay, let's listen to Boss Le." He Liu hurriedly said, he was worried that his young master would be too sick, and he could take a rest after entering the village, the young master brought people out as soon as the snow stopped, and he has not rested until now one time.

"Let's go, if you don't go, Sixth Brother He will have an opinion." Jian Leyang joked.

"Listen to you." He Yunzhang patted the snow falling on his body and smiled.

He Liu heaved a sigh of relief, and became grateful to Jian Leyang in his heart. A sentence from Jian Leyang was worth ten or eight sentences. If you continue like this, you will get sick sooner or later.

Seeing this pedestrian enter Zhuangzi, Xie Wenyi, who got the word, quickly arranged for someone to deliver cold dispelling soup. It was boiled with big bones, and a lot of medicinal materials were added. Drinking it would immediately produce heat.

It's not the first time for He Yunzhang to come to Zhuangzi. Xie Wenyi also met him before. He had heard of He Yunzhang's name in the capital before, but he had never met him in person. Unexpectedly, he would see him after leaving Beijing. See him and Jian Leyang Talking and laughing, Xie Wenyi put down the medicinal soup and left.

"I didn't expect Master He to be an official in such a far place, and I didn't expect Master He to be so familiar with Mr. Le." From the way the two get along, it can be seen that it is not polite, and I have never heard of it in the capital. This Young Master He is close to any girl or brother. From Mama Ding's point of view, the two have nothing to do with each other. If Jian Leyang is good-looking, then the good-looking girl and brother in the capital Not too much, and I've never seen Master He's heart flutter.

Mama Ding took another look at the ugly scar between her brother Yi's eyebrows. Brother Yi didn't show mercy at all, and deliberately made an ugly scar. Mama Ding has been worrying about the days to come. Although there is a precedent like Jian Leyang But Mother Ding didn't think that there were a few people who could reach Jian Leyang's level.
