Chapter 261
Seeing that Sun Xin and his father were both looking at him very seriously, Hu Cheng finally became nervous and worried: "Then what should we do? If the Liangshan army is defeated, how can we resist it? It is Gaotang Prefecture. The state capital, which is as strong as the city, was captured by them in one fell swoop, our little Dulonggang..."

"How can a seven-foot-tall man be so frightened when he hears that someone is going to attack your Zhuangzi? What else can you do in the future?"

Hu Taigong couldn't help but curse, but his incompetent eldest son Hu Cheng was still nervous.

Although Hu Cheng was scolded, he didn't take it to heart and still looked at Sun Xin with his eyes. He always felt that Sun Xin must have some answer here.

Hu Taigong also looked at Sun Xin.

Sun Xin didn't have to think about it at all, the answer was already in his heart.

"Let's pull the peasant soldiers."

"Can farmers and soldiers help us defend Liangshan?"

"It is not enough to immediately build a team on Dulonggang. I can send people from Sunjiazhuang. I am afraid that there is no way for the army to get supplies quickly here, and it will be inconvenient to do anything. Therefore, before I send troops over, the supervisory committee must partially grasp the power on Dulonggang."

Hu Taigong was a little worried when he heard the words.

"I have no objection to building farmers and soldiers on our Hu's estate." He said as he glanced at Hu Cheng, who nodded hastily.

Hu Taigong then continued: "But although the discussion in Zengtou City has been made before, but if you really want Lijiazhuang and Zhujiazhuang to agree to build farmers and soldiers with us and expand the power of the supervisory committee, I am afraid of them for a while. Most of them have to shirk, after all, this is something that really affects their interests."

Needless to say, once Sun Xin, a farmer and soldier, is built, Dulonggang will no longer be the same as the three Zhuangzi.

Sun Xin originally planned to wait for the supervisory committees of the three villages to have some foundations before slowly promoting the construction of farmers and soldiers. With the previous agreement at the banquet in Zengtou City, everyone has a unified plan. The time of one's own internal faction will be much easier to accept.

But now that Liangshan has clearly set his sights on Dulonggang, Hu Taigong may have a little bit of luck in his heart that Liangshan may give up the target of attack, but Sun Xin, who has read the Water Margin, thinks that Liangshan's attack on Dulonggang will definitely be within a few months. To launch.

In Water Margin, only because Zhujiazhuang captured Shi Qian and Yang Xiong who wanted to go to Liangshan, Liangshan dared to send troops with such a weak excuse.This can only prove that fundamentally, some people in Liangshan just don't want to have such a big thorn in their side within their sphere of influence.

Chao Gai may not want to attack Dulonggang, but the faction represented by Song Jiang and Wu Yong will definitely take the opportunity to send troops.

Now it is obvious that Song Jiang's power can be grasped more firmly every time he uses foreign soldiers. With such a big fat in Dulonggang in front of him, he would have been greedy for a long time.

"It's difficult to do." Sun Xin thought about it and said, "I don't have time to stay here for a few days. I'll ask Sanniang to come to the post to give everyone a briefing, and make preparations for the affairs here. Turn around I'll tell."

Originally, he came to Dulonggang just to build a pharmaceutical factory, but now compared with the safety of Dulonggang, the establishment of a pharmaceutical factory is completely worthless.

Hearing that his son-in-law must strongly promote the process of Dulonggang's integration into the supervisory committee, although Hu Taigong was a little bit upset, he did not raise any objections.

He nodded and said: "Okay, you call Sanniang over, we can discuss it more then." Then he asked: "Where are you going if you are in such a hurry?"

"I also have to go to Zengtou City. The hemp yarn factory over there also needs people."

Hu Taigong nodded and said: "Then you go and come back early, and I will take care of this matter with you, brother Hu Cheng and Sanniang first."

Knowing that Sun Xin didn't give a warning in advance, he directly revealed the intention of joining forces with Zhujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang.

So Sun Xin didn't go to build Zhujiazhuang or Lijiazhuang. After writing a letter for the farmer to take home in a hurry and let Sanniang come over, he and Wu Song set off for Zengtou City without even eating.

It took a day to go north, and when I got closer to Zengtou City, I saw that the road was still somewhat desolate, and it was already full of merchants.

Many merchants changed their carts to transport heavy goods, and hurried to Zengtou City.

When Wu Song met him right away, he smiled and said to Sun Xin, "It's just that Zengtou City has been quite prosperous since I haven't been here for half a month. It seems that the construction effect of our textile factory has really improved."

Sun Xin rubbed his chin and looked at it for a while, but what he thought was that although there are a large number of these merchants, there is still a long way to go if they want to digest the future output of Zengtou City with these big carts, and they have to wait for the north to come. Only when the expected output of Shinzento City can be reached can it be completed.

"Let's go to Zengtou City first."

The closer the horses were to Zengtou City, the faster the horses rode.

When I walked to Zengtou City, I saw that many shacks had been built in front of the Zhaizi Gate in Zengtou City. Because of the driving effect of the large textile factory, there was actually another building with an area of ​​​​and Zengtou outside Zengtou City. Head market is about the same size as the market.

No need to ask, this is Shi Wengong's handwriting. Sun Xin thought that this man really had some brains, and it would be difficult for them to ride fast horses when they entered the market.

Slowly walking past the big market outside Zengtou City, I saw that the market has just been repaired at this time, and many houses on the roadside are just very simple thatched houses with wooden walls, and the so-called road surface is just electricity made of loess. It's just a moment, but at this time there are already many merchants staying in the market.

Riding through here, Sun Xin and Wu Song heard discussions about the price and sales of linen yarn. Obviously, these people came to buy linen yarn.

Sun Xin and the others did not enter Zengtou City, but turned around and came outside a building next to Zengtou City.

This place is Zengtou City Textile Factory, and Sun Xin was a little surprised when he saw the rammed-earth merchants busy in front of the textile factory.In my memory, this place used to be just an empty factory building. Why are there still people building the city wall here?

The time they arrived was at lunch time, and other places were ignored, but in factories controlled by the supervisory committee, workers must be given a rest time at noon, and a meal is included. One of the important reasons for entering the market is that apart from the strange Sunjiazhuang in Dengzhou, at this time in Song Dynasty, even the poorer small landlords could not afford lunch.

Just as Sun Xin got off his horse, he met several shift managers coming out of the workshop to go to the cafeteria for dinner.

The stewards hadn't returned to Dengzhou for a month, and they saw the owner of their own farm at a glance, and the stewards hurried over enthusiastically.

Sun Xin got off his horse and asked a few people: "What's the matter? We are going to build the city wall in front of the textile factory now?"
