I rise from the sword

Chapter 37 Yang Lin Borrows Money
That afternoon, Yang Lin gave half a day off to the soldiers of the Independent Brigade to let them relax.

The premise is not to disturb the people!
And he was thinking about ways to make money.

Incorporating the cavalry battalion and the garrison battalion of Qinghe Town, the total number of independent brigades has exceeded 600, and the monthly food and salary is also a considerable expenditure.

Although he got a sum of money from Yuan Datou, he also got tens of thousands of catties of rice from the devil's military supply warehouse in Qinghe town.

But if you sit and eat, you won't last long.

What's more, the independent brigade still needs to grow and develop.

After thinking about it, Yang Lin had an idea in his mind, and he shouted to Ma Gan beside him: "Ma Gan, go and find Lao Wen."

"Yes!"

Ma Gan suddenly agreed, then turned and left.

A few minutes later, the two came hand in hand.

"Captain, are you looking for me?"

Wen Peng had a bitter look on his face. Originally, he planned to take advantage of today's holiday to have a good time with his Jinlian.

Who would have thought that he would be called back before leaving the station.

"Yeah!" Yang Lin nodded, and said, "I want to ask you something, you have been in Wanjia Town for a while, and you should be familiar with the local rich men, right?"

"Familiar with them, Yuan Datou likes to play mahjong, so he often invites them to play cards.

In addition, humble officials often go to their place on business..."

"Business?"

Yang Lin stared at Wen Peng with contempt: "I think you took the opportunity to come to fight the autumn wind?"

"hey-hey!"

Wen Peng smiled awkwardly, scratched his head embarrassingly, and asked, "Captain, why are you asking me about this? Could it be that you also want to fight Qiufeng?"

Yang Lin's face darkened and said, "Do you think I'm like this person? I just want to get acquainted with the local rich man."

"Immediately write a few invitations in your name, and invite all these elders to our residence.

Just say you are the host and treat them to a light meal. "

"Yes!"

Wen Peng responded, and immediately picked up pen and ink to write more than 10 invitation cards, and then led a few subordinates out of the station on war horses.

Let's talk about Yang Lin.

He thought that he still had two treasure chests, and now that he finally had time to spare, he thought about opening them to see what was inside.

"Ding! The treasure chest has been opened. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a copy of the advanced "Gun Mastery" skill book. The skill book and the host are automatically fused."

Yang Lin obviously felt that his control over the gun had strengthened a lot.

If the Mauser 98k sniper rifle could only accurately hit stationary targets within 600 meters before, now he is completely sure to accurately hit any target within 1000 meters.

In turn, he opened the second treasure chest.

"Ding! The treasure chest has been opened, congratulations to the host for obtaining 500 pieces of cotton cloth."

It has been some time since the establishment of the Independent Brigade, but the soldiers are still wearing the uniforms of the Imperial Association Army.

Yang Lin was wondering where to get military uniforms, but unexpectedly the system gave him a big gift

A piece of cloth is about 6 sets of military uniforms, so 500 pieces of cloth can make 3000 sets of military uniforms.

Just where to make these cloths into military uniforms?
Suddenly, the shadow of a person quickly appeared in Yang Lin's mind.

Got it!

……

Three hours passed in a blink of an eye, and Yang Lin was studying the topographic map of Wanjia Town, thinking about the future of the Independent Brigade.

Wanjia Town is a good place, but it is not a place to stay for a long time. On the contrary, it is still a hot potato.

Because Yang Lin knew very well that he had caused such a big loss to the little devil, and the little devil would never let him go easily.

Maybe the army of devils is already on their way here.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps at the entrance of the command department.

Yang Lin raised his head to look for his reputation, and a familiar figure appeared in front of his eyes.

"Report to the captain, the humble job is back."

Yang Lin asked: "How is the matter going?"

Wen Peng smiled and said: "It's all done, all the landlords and old fortunes you asked the humble staff to hire are all here."

"Okay, well done!"

Yang Lin nodded in satisfaction.

"Captain, why did you ask them here? Is it really to treat them to dinner?" Wen Peng asked curiously.

"You'll find out later."

After speaking, Yang Lin took Wen Peng out of the headquarters.

In the courtyard outside the headquarters stood a group of people wearing mink fur jackets. Just by their clothes, it could be seen that these people were either rich or noble.

They are all well-known local tyrants and evil gentry near Wanjia Town, and everyone has a wealthy family and a lot of money.

They were either landlords or rich merchants, or well-known merchants, and some even had family members who were still in the puppet army or held important positions in the national government.

These people run rampant in the countryside on weekdays, exploiting the common people, and almost all the wealth is squeezed from the poor.

It can be said that everyone has done a lot of outrageous things.

Landlords and veterans stopped talking immediately when they saw Wen Peng approaching.

The independent brigade came out early in the morning to reassure the people, so the landlords and old money already knew the news that the independent brigade had occupied Wanjia Town.

Can't help but ask a little nervously: "Captain Wen, what are you calling us here for?"

Wen Peng said: "It's not my intention to ask you to come here, but our captain wants to meet you."

"Your captain wants to see us, could it be Captain Yang Linyang?"

"Not bad!" Wen Peng nodded, waved his right hand, and pointed to Yang Lin next to him: "This is our captain!"

"Oh my goodness! Captain Yang is a man of talent, handsome and capable, and he really is a hero born out of a boy!"

"I've heard of Captain Yang's name a long time ago, and it's a great blessing in my life to meet him today!"

These landlords have always bullied the weak and feared the strong. They first praised Yang Lin without hesitation, and then asked: "But I don't know why Captain Yang asked me to come here?"

"It's not a big deal for Mr. Yang to ask you to come here. He just wants to get acquainted with local celebrities, and borrow something from the masters by the way."

Although Yang Lin had a harmless smile on his face, the hearts of the landlords and Laocai became uneasy.

Because they knew very well that the person in front of them was not a good person.

They tentatively asked: "But I don't know what Captain Yang wants to borrow from us?"

Yang Lin said: "I believe you all know the news that my independent brigade has captured Wanjia Town and Qinghe Town. Now my independent brigade has just expanded and recruited about 600 new brothers."

"In other words, my independent brigade has more than 600 more mouths to eat."

"My independent brigade is impoverished. It's not as rich as your masters. How can we support so many brothers?"

"So, I want to borrow some money from the masters."

"After all, these brothers are willing to follow me, and you can't let them starve, right?"
