Liang Xing was so angry that he was scolded that his face twitched. He was about to stop and compete with Wang Changfu, but he glanced at the big words on the western wall and his heart disappeared.

Those who disrespect their superiors during training, insult or beat Shangguan will be punished for one month, and those who commit the crime again will be charged directly.

This is the third rule. The first is to obey military orders. Those who do not listen usually deduct monthly money. If they do not listen when they are outside, they will immediately start refusal.

Liang Xing’s monthly money is five taels per month. He is one of the team leaders. This silver is almost the same annual income as before. Now he pays money every month, which is enough for his own wine and meat to live. Now a neighbor’s sister-in-law has mentioned that he wants to match him. This is something Liang Xing dared not think about before. When he was in a lulu, he kept eating and clothing, but he was often beaten and injured. The head of the group is not easy to get along. He has to pay more than half of the money. Before his parents died, he hoped that he would marry a wife and keep him, and he would inherit the Liang family’s incense. The right ancestor, but this matter was automatically eliminated after a moment of food and clothing. Which woman would marry him a lulu who had no meal?

Now it is completely different from before. Liang Xing saved some money and renovated his yard. The walls were pushed and rebuilt, the roof tiles were replaced, and the inside was repainted. It was not much money. After that, the news of the matchmaking became stronger. It is estimated that Liang Xing would work safely for a few months and there would be a matchmaker coming.

At this time, whether it is a monthly payment or a redeem, this is a result that Liang Xing could not bear.

During the training interval, a quarter of an hour was allowed to rest. Wang Changfu sat at a table to drink tea. He was very comfortable. The instructor just spoke, and he didn't want to practice it himself. However, Wang Changfu also impressed everyone with his ability. Liang Xing and others were not his opponents when fighting in groups that day. They were very strong in actual combat. When practicing, everyone was convinced. Whether it was a spear, a knife card, or a knife, there was no way he could play with it. After all, he was an elite army in the border army. Zhang Han also suspected that this guy was a servant, and ordinary camp soldiers did not have the skills of Wang Changfu.

The light rain is still drizzling. The rain seems to be constantly, but the precipitation is very limited. It is the same everywhere. It seems that it will only get drought when it goes down. The main stream of Yanghe River has some tributaries on both sides of the paddy fields on both sides of the river, and the prices of dry fields that are not close to the river have fallen all the way.

The Lahus didn't care about this, but felt upset in the rain. The clothes were wet every day when they practiced, and they felt very uncomfortable. Each of them gave out several sets of clothes, all of which were made in the tailor's shop in the fort. Zhang Han asked people to make it more suitable. They were similar to arrow clothes worn by cavalrymen, with tighter cuffs. They were used to carry items such as daggers and kettles. The cloth shoes and straw sandals on their feet were originally different, but now they were all wearing leather jackets and boots. They stood together like this, and at least there was a branch in Heyusheng. Such a team of escorts were particularly eye-catching when passing by.

Yang Qiu sat on the stone steps, holding the grass root that had just grown a while ago in his mouth, and murmured: "I'm tired, Wang Changfu is so cruel."

Yang Sisun said: "My whole body bones are about to dissipate."

The Jiang brothers just smiled and didn't say a word. They and Wen Zhongfa and a few of them have always been close to Liang Xing. Liang Xing is very concerned about training and doesn't complain much. Unlike Yang Qiu and his gang, they feel uncomfortable if they don't complain.

Liu Dequan said gloomyly: "I practice this way every day. If I am willing to endure such hardship, why bother Lahu?"

Everyone didn't say anything at this moment. In fact, Lahu was mostly lazy and chewy. They really couldn't bear it for four hours a day. If it weren't for the generous monthly salary, most of the people here would have dispersed.

At this time, Zhang Chun ran over with an umbrella, waved from afar, and shouted: "The owner of Dongyi Store comes to discuss selling the store, and the young owner asks you a few to come and stand."

This is a good job. At least there is no need to listen to Wang Changfu's shouting in a short period of time. Zhong Lahu was excited and stood up quickly.

This kind of errands have always been done by the Lahu people, and the porters also have envy in their eyes.

After a few months, the road to Datong has been completely opened. On the first day of the New Year, Zhang Han first greeted Lai Tongxin's family in this fort. Lai Tongxin was not at home and went to Yanghe to greet the deputy general. Zhang Han left 200 taels of silver and greetings to the Lai family. The New Year ceremony was very passed, and several owners could not even enter the door of the general's mansion. Of course, the matter of beating people with Yusheng's bodyguard was left alone.

There may not be no one in the Qing Military Department in the fort to deal with the Zhang family, but now Zhang Han has already taken the line from Puzhou, and Lai Tongxin also has regular offerings. The important thing is to deal with the General of Datong and the Deputy Envoy of Yanghe Dao. In the whole Datong, unless someone takes over the Governor Xuanda, no one can deal with Zhang Han and Yuyu.

After leaving Lai Tongxin's house, Zhang Han rushed to Yanghe again. The deputy general could not get to the point of being able to get there for the time being. Zhang Han brought a thousand silver to the deputy envoy Zheng's house. Deputy envoy Zheng had never left the city, but he did not see him. He just collected the money and accepted 30% of his shares with a smile.

When Zhang Han came back from Yanghe, the entire Xinpingbao knew that the weather in Heyusheng was different from before.

After breaking the fifth day after the New Year, He Yusheng took on several chapters of business to Datong, each order was over 10,000 taels of goods, and small-scale short-distance businesses were more than 10,000 taels. Dozens of trucks heading to Yanghe set off after the New Year. As soon as these mule carts were out, Zhang Hannian earned a lot of money.

These are all future and luck before the New Year. He Yusheng is already famous, so customers will come to him naturally.

Not only did he have a bodyguard with Yusheng, but under deliberate publicity, the businessmen also knew that he had a relationship with Yusheng and the deputy envoy and the Ma family, which was the most important thing.

Zhang Han went out several times in the first month. He opened the route to Datong. He bought a branch every thirty to sixty miles away. Six branches all the way to Datong. Not only did he receive orders from Xinpingbao, but there were also several of the forts along the way. There were also many people going to Datong. Of course, he also took business. There were many branches, which meant that Heyusheng's transportation capacity and adaptability became stronger. Next, Zhang Han would open the road from East Road to Zhangjiakou. This road belongs to a large official road. The Ming Dynasty had eleven large official roads in the north. From the capital to Xuanfu, and then to Bietouguan, this is one of the important official roads from east to west. You can walk from Xinpingbao to Zhangjiakou. This official road is also a thirty to sixty miles a store, and five stores arrived.

Next is to Taiyuan, maybe further south, or west, and more mainly east, from east to south, which is the golden route.

Zhang Han is very ambitious, but he still has to eat it in one bite.

The Dongyi store I saw today is the first stop to Zhangjiakou. The owner of the store is also a ruthless person who raises dozens of idle men. Therefore, Zhang Han asked all these tigers to come to the station, so the first shot must be fired.

Zhang Han naturally bought a store with a good location, and the foundation is laid, so there is no need to do much. If it is a small wilderness shop, it doesn’t have to be too troublesome. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of effort to be useful after taking it. Since you have a backer and have a large group of hooligans, isn’t it a bit stupid to do business honestly?

He wouldn't feel embarrassed about Zhang Han, the owner of those stores. These days, there are no good men and women who open this store, and he can also give enough money.

In the past few months, the family's banknote has almost been used up. The total amount of money spent more than 30,000 yuan on buying grain and shops, and several thousand taels of bribes to Ma Chengen and Zheng Guochang. Now the family has been emptied, and the next few stores have to be bought by the money they earn, so he has no time to operate it slowly.

...

"Young boss, the negotiation has been made."

Zhang Han called Li Yujing over. The two of them were about to speak, but Liang Hong came in with a smile. As soon as he entered the door, he smiled and said, "The Zhou man was tough first, but he regretted it and didn't want to sell it. Liang Xing and Yang Qiu came in with a dozen people and stood in the corner of the house. The man became soft and said he wanted to sell it. Why would I be polite at this time? He cut him into three hundred taels, and finally sold it for 1,700 taels. His store contract had been handed over to me, and he wrote the receipt, and asked him to take the money away."

Zhang Han smiled and said, "That man's eyes were so cruel, but I didn't expect him to be so easy to talk to."

Liang Hong thought for a while and said, "When the young master said this, the person surnamed Zhou seemed to be a little wrong, but he bought it. As soon as this person took action, he could easily eat it all the way to Zhangjiakou's store."

Zhang Han said: "This matter is easy to deal with. Now I will ask Yang Qiu to take someone to fight along the way. I can't support them in vain."

Liang Hong said: "Lahu is already about 30 people, and there are no need to challenge him anymore. There are about twenty bodyguards from porters. I feel that it's enough recently."

"Far from enough." Zhang Han shook his head and smiled: "We have three major forts and six small forts in Datong, and nine horse markets. In the future, the business of the accounting will be far more than that of ordinary mule and carriage households. There are not enough escorts, so what can I use to win the trust of others. By the end of this year, it is estimated that three or four hundred people will be recruited, and these lines will be enough."

"This also means that for a scale of over 10,000 taels, no matter whether you are holding goods or bringing money, you don't dare to go on the road without enough manpower." Liang Hong was full of excitement. He Yusheng was on the verge of bankruptcy last year, but this year he looked like he was showing great success. Although the main store now only has food and the Zhang family saved all the money that the Zhang family saved in decades has been used, but in this situation, no one believes that He Yusheng will not make money.

The key is that Zhang Han cursed the officials and rushed to the bottom. Even if Liang Xing was Liang Hong's nephew Liang Hong, he had no confidence to control him. However, Liang Xing and others followed Zhang Han's advice. Liang Hong also knew that he was quite dissatisfied with practicing La Hu every day. However, every time when the string was about to break, Zhang Han could find something wrong and make corresponding arrangements.

"That's it, then I'll go out."

"Tomorrow, ask people to prepare horses, ask Liang Xing and the Jiang brothers to follow, and Wang Changfu also follow, and we will go to see people."

Xinpingbao has a Great Wall of about 18 miles, built on flat ground and also built along the mountain, winding like a long snake. Going out of a fixed passage is the exit. Generally speaking, the Han people will not leave the exit without any important matters, and those fire road piers and platform castles will not be released at will.

Of course, the rules are useless. Many Han people fled to the grassland every year for many reasons, but every year, Banshengcheng, Tumote, is the gathering place for the Han people. In addition to the escapees, more are smuggling merchants.
