Chapter 156 Preaching
"It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable, Mr. Tian Feng, you deceived me too much!~"

"Master, don't worry, there is still room for redemption."

"To appease the king, Tian Yuanhao is nothing to worry about. The matter lies with the Hedong Wei clan..."

"Don't say anything."

Han Fu's eyes were dark, and he glared at several confidants.

If it weren't for them, he wouldn't have sent Tian Feng to Hedong to borrow troops, and he wouldn't be in the current predicament.

The [-] expeditionary troops of the Hedong Wei family killed the rebels from all over Jizhou, and the gentry from Zhaojun and Julu paid homage to him.

Han Fu's situation was already very embarrassing, but now there is another dragon crossing the river, and the power in his hands can be said to be declining again and again.

"The Zhao family, the Lu family, the Qi family, and the Zhang family... are all attached to the expeditionary army now. The original expeditionary army of 5000 people has now expanded to more than [-]. If it is left to develop like this, the land of Jizhou may change. Lord."

Han Fu was anxious and uneasy. He was so credulous that he led wolves into the house. Now it was too late to say anything.

"Report..."

The messenger hurried into the big tent.

Han Fu's face was gloomy. In the past two days, there was really no good news.

The messenger presented a scroll of silk with both hands, respectfully knelt down on one knee, and said in a loud voice: "Qinghe County urgently reports that the Wei's Expeditionary Army has captured thousands of former Yellow Turban thieves and handed them over to the county government. I don't want the thieves to mutiny late at night. Cooperate with the expeditionary force inside and outside, quickly occupy the outer city, besiege the county without attacking..."

"what?"

Han Fu's eyelids twitched, and he grabbed the silk scroll. After reading it, he threw the silk scroll into the brazier beside him angrily.

"Too much deception, simply too much deception!"

Several counselors nearby looked at each other in blank dismay. Judging by the meaning, Qinghe County might also be lost.

And it is.

Of the nine counties of Jizhou, Anping, Changshan, Zhongshan, Hejian, Qinghe, Zhaojun, Julu, Bohai, and Wei, three counties have now been occupied by the Wei's Expeditionary Army.They are Zhao County, Julu, and Qinghe County that was just won.

Qinghe County, the county government.

Xu Huang was sitting on the saddle, with his hands folded in front of his chest, and a Pangu ax behind his back was shining brightly in the sun.

In front of him, more than a dozen patriarchs and elders of the local wealthy families lined up to greet him.

"The Wang family of Qinghe donated five thousand stones of grain, one hundred horses of hemp, horses, and some iron utensils."

"The Qinghe Zhou family donated three thousand stones, one hundred pieces of hemp and one hundred pieces of silk each."

"The Qinghe Wu clan donated three thousand stones of grain and five hundred horses."

"Qinghe Simon's family..."

At the gate of the city, the middle-aged literati sang loudly, and all the gentry who had been chanted raised their heads and chests with a proud attitude.

Tian Feng behind Xu Huang's face remained unchanged. Compared with a few days ago, he looked thinner and more resolute at this time.

"Brother Yuan Hao, it's me, Wang Ze."

"That is Tian Maocai, worthy of the name of Jizhou celebrity."

"I heard that this son worked in the Taiwei's Mansion in his early years, and he has not been reused. In this way, Brother Zhou and him are still colleagues."

"Ah, hehe, yes, yes."

A middle-aged man in the Zhou family shrank his neck in embarrassment. Back then, he had run on Tian Feng a lot. Now that Tian Feng is so prosperous, he was afraid of being recognized, and he vaguely hoped that Tian Feng would let him go and fly with him.

After several giants of the expeditionary force entered the city, the people at the gate of the city lined up in an orderly manner.

One of Tian Feng's assistants was skillfully holding a loud brass pipe, and shouted: "We're recruiting, we're recruiting, Wei's is recruiting."

The people were moved after hearing the news, they were waiting for this moment.

As for Xu Huang and Tian Feng's names, just listen to them, but they can't be eaten...

"The blacksmith comes first, the number of apprentices is not limited, the monthly salary is ten dou, and there are those who are proficient in iron forging and pig iron smelting. After passing the examination, the salary will be raised to [-] to [-] dou. , Weishi provides free housing, and you can move your family with you."

"There are five hundred carpenters, no apprentices are required, and the monthly salary ranges from fifteen to twenty Dou."

"mason……"

"Elders who are proficient in a skill can also pass the assessment and receive a residence permit in Anyi. If you are interested, please go to the guard for detailed consultation."

City guard.

Xu Huangduan sat on the top seat, next to Tian Feng dressed in a Confucian uniform, and Yang Feng with a solemn face.

Next, a group of family members crowded together.

The old man at the head saluted respectfully and asked, "General Xu, is there anything important about this transaction?"

Xu Huang picked up the wine glass and drank it down, his tired eyes were bloodshot. Hearing the old man's voice, he gestured to Tian Feng who was beside him, and then continued to drink alone.

The old man understood and looked at Tian Feng.

Tian Feng had been prepared for a long time and took out a list calmly.

"Like Zhao County and Julu, you can divide the income according to the donations. This time Qinghe County captured the rebels and shared it equally. The upper field was [-] hectares, which was obtained by the Wang, Zhang, and Zhou families. One belongs to the Lu family, and one copper mine is handed over to the Qi family for mining..."

The gentry here are mixed, but generally speaking, the contribution is directly proportional to the harvest, and no one stands up to oppose it. Even if they are unhappy, they have to hold it in their hearts. Get more.

After all the dust settled.

Some got up and left, while others stayed where they were.

After all the irrelevant people left, Xu Huang, who had been drinking from his glass alone, said, "Duke Zhou, please take a seat."

Zhou's group who stayed behind did not dare to be overbearing, bowed their hands and sat opposite Xu Huang.

Xu Huang took out a blueprint from the wooden box next to the low table.

"This is a grass shed designed by the young master. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. It can grow melons, fruits and vegetables in severe winter, as well as some vegetable seeds. Please have a look at the things you need to pay attention to when planting these vegetables."

Zhou's group looked at each other in blank dismay, their eyes full of horror.

"Can you grow fruits and vegetables in severe winter?"

"good."

It was Tian Feng who answered. He glanced at the former colleague who was hidden behind, and said without changing his face: "This is a test. If your Zhou family can't grow it, we can only cooperate with others."

The head of the Zhou clan frowned slightly, and tentatively said, "I wonder if the papermaking skills obtained by the Julu Zhang clan..."

Tian Feng's face darkened, and he warned with a sneer: "Julu Zhang Yun has hundreds of disciples, and he has the merit of preaching and receiving karma. The gift of papermaking is to help him promote his academics. If it is used for other purposes, hehe... Patriarch Zhou is sure to want this. Papermaking?"

"Uh, this... don't need it, don't need it, the technique of growing vegetables in thatched shed is quite good."

Tian Feng snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice: "That's all. It's going to be winter soon, and then Patriarch Zhou will find out how wise your decision today is."

At this time, Xu Huang seldom opened his mouth, and said in a sonorous tone: "[-]% of the fruits and vegetables from the grass shed must be sold to Wei Shi at a fair price, and the remaining [-]% can be sold by you. If you have no objections, you can return it first."

"Seven, seventy percent?!" Zhou's group immediately exploded.

Xu Huang narrowed his eyes slightly, and reached out to get the Pangu ax behind him.

Seeing this, the head of the Zhou clan hurriedly stood up and said, "Just, according to General Xu's words, [-]% of the time, the old man will personally send someone to Anyi."
