Lord Moyu was forced to open

"Hey, hello! Commander Left, Commander Left, why are you coming to our small place again?"

As soon as they met, Lin Mao, the prefect of Changhe Prefecture, rushed to accuse him.

Zuo Hui didn't care about his mess at all, he waved his hands and said familiarly: "Magistrate Lin, I think you have already received the order from the imperial court.

Now that our army has been stationed outside your mansion, please also ask the prefect Lin to send the military supplies needed by our army outside the city as soon as possible for me to sign for them! "

After hearing Zuo Hui's words, Lin Mao didn't panic at all.

He had heard about Gaodong before, in order to avoid falling into the fate of those unlucky prefects and county magistrates in Gaodong County, after learning the news that the Pingwa Army was going to pass by, he immediately arranged for people to prepare .

Now everything is ready, as long as he gives an order, the military supplies that should be given to the Pingwa Army can be delivered at any time.

Therefore, after Zuo Hui said this, Lin Maodang nodded in agreement.

With that attitude, I was taken aback for a moment.

Why are you so excited, the little magistrate, about something that others can't avoid?

But since they are all ready, naturally they will not delay, and soon all kinds of military supplies from Changhe Mansion have arrived outside Li Dingguo's barracks one after another.

Seeing such a magistrate for the first time really opened Li Dingguo's eyes.

And when Zuo Hui received the news that the garrison had received the supplies, the way Zuo looked back at Lin Mao changed.

Good guy, this is the real thing!
One spittle and one nail, and I will give it away as soon as I say it. I will not find various reasons to delay like other magistrates or county magistrates. In the end, they will force us to measure the knife with him, and they will honestly give us what should be given to us. Give us all.

And the one in front of him is not only not deducted, but according to the information sent, it has been returned too much!

Looking at the cautious Lin Mao with a complicated expression, he turned back and said loudly: "Prefect Lin, don't worry, all the supplies from your mansion have arrived at our army garrison now.

I will leave immediately after our army replenishes enough supplies in the market.

It will not cause any trouble to your yamen. "

For others, Li Dingguo and others have always followed the policy issued by the prince.

That is, people respect me one foot, and I respect others one foot.

If others give me a good look, then I will also show others a good look.

But if others don't give me a good face, then we don't need to be polite to them at all.

This is why Zuo Hui is so polite.

This time, the Pingwa army and the local yamen got along very happily.

It took about three more days, and the Pingwa Army finally purchased the prepared materials, and the Pingwa Army, who stayed in Changhe Mansion for more than three days, set off for their destination again the next day. .

And after leaving Changhe Mansion, the Pingwa Army will no longer be able to enter the city in order to avoid news that they will not be able to enter the city, and the supplies on them are enough for them to reach the next supply point.

The army marched again for about seven days, and finally came to a county near the Bohai Bay in northern Jiangsu.

"Report!"

While the army was marching, the sentry sent out ahead to explore the road suddenly came to report.

"Report to the general, according to investigations, the flag of Feiyun Trading Company is flying in the sea village thirty miles ahead!"

As soon as Li Dingguo listened to the words, his face was overjoyed. The flag of Feiyun Commercial Bank was flying, which meant that there was a station of Feiyun Commercial Bank here.

And if they want to get supplies for the next journey, they need to find Feiyun Trading Company.

Immediately, Li Dingguo ordered the whole army to speed up.

Due to the large number of cavalry, the Pingwa army finally arrived at the sea village mentioned by the spies just as the sun was about to set.

Hai Village used to be the poorest village in the vicinity.

In order to live, the people in the village can only go to the sea to catch fish, shrimp and crabs all day long to satisfy their hunger. The villagers are all yellow and emaciated, wearing ragged clothes.

But everything has changed since Feiyun Commercial Bank set up an outlet here.

Due to the terrain here, it is extremely suitable for setting up a port. At that time, the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, which was eager to find an independent outlet to the sea, even took a fancy to Haicun.

Immediately afterwards, a large sum of money was invested in. In the original sea village, every household was a thatched cottage, and the land was also muddy.

People can't even afford to eat.

But since Feiyun Commercial Company came, the road has become a stone road, and the houses of the people in the village have also become large tile-roofed houses. The people finally got rid of the pain of continuing to eat fish, shrimp and crab to fill their stomachs, and have spare money to buy food. , I have money to buy a few feet of cloth to make myself a new suit of clothes.

The land near the sea in the village was bought by Feiyun Trading Company, which spent a lot of money to compensate the village. At the same time, Feiyun Trading Company recruited almost the whole village to work for the construction of the port.

After the port was established, the ships of Feiyun Trading Company began to come and go frequently.

The arrival of the ship also means that someone needs to unload the cargo manually, and the sailors who have been on the ship for a long time need to find a place to rest.

So those with brains in the village, those who had saved some wealth from their previous work, began to use their brains to start the business of these sailors.

Accommodation, food, etc., unexpectedly found a buddy for the villagers.

And Lifu, who regularly needs to move goods at the port every day, also keeps the young and strong in the village always busy.

Originally, the people on sea boats lived by fishing in the sea, because the nearby land was saline-alkali land and could not grow food, so they could only fish.

Now they can do business with Feiyun merchants and do things for Feiyun merchants in exchange for rewards, so that they can use these rewards to buy food and daily necessities.

Gradually, the originally small sea village began to expand, and poor people from other villages also discovered the changes in the sea village, and naturally gathered in the sea village in order to live a better life.

Slowly, the original small village is no worse than a town in a group.

When Li Dingguo led the Pingwa army to Haicun, he was also taken aback. Didn't he say it was a village?

Does it look like a small town?
But before he could think about it, their arrival caused panic among the people in Haicun.

This is the army, and the reputation of the army in this period is not very good. Everyone looked at Li Dingguo's department outside the town with horrified eyes.

It wasn't until a chubby man ran over sweating profusely and came all the way to Li Dingguo that the scene was resolved.

"Huchi! Huchi! Huchi! Li... General Li! The villain is Wang Dahai, the person in charge of Haicun Port!"

Wang Dahai was panting heavily, apparently he was in such a rush that he couldn't even speak well.

After Li Dingguo signaled him to slow down, it took him a while to finally calm down, and continued: "General Li, your matter has been explained earlier.

Please stay around Haicun for two more days.

In about two days, the supplies that the commercial bank mobilized for you are about to arrive. In addition, Yunzhou has also delivered some things to you via merchant ships.

It is said that the prince personally ordered it to be delivered, and it must be handed over to you! "

"What? Something that the prince personally explained?"

Li Dingguo was shocked, he didn't expect that the prince would have something to give him, so he nodded and agreed.

And Li Dahai quickly promised that he would arrange all the food for the Pingwa army stationed in Haicun for the past three days.

In this way, the Pingwa army waited in Haicun.
