Ten days passed by, and the Tianyan Pavilion of Xiuyan Mansion was still full of familiar figures. These were the big grain merchants such as Wang Yao and Zhang Yiwen.

However, today, this group of grain merchants are far less happy and excited when they heard about the news of the rioters.

Han Jianzhou and Zhang Shun, these two talents they had originally admired, have been rebelling for almost twenty days. Let’s see what they did? The gradually expanding ranks of young and strong people in chaos, and the gradually elite personal corps... I heard that both of them selected 1,000 elite young and strong people, each selected from the five or six thousand young and strong people in chaos, not only dared to fight and kill, but also tall, all of them were armoured and gun-like, and developed towards regular soldiers.

The two goods did not intersect the troops of An Guang and Pinghui counties. Once the teams of the county and township set out, they would just leave. When the large army retreated into the county and township, they would continue to wander, just starting from the granary of the landlords and old Cai in the villages.

Without these two people, the food of the landlords in the countryside would only rot in the warehouse, which would not help the refugees in this drought. All the refugee families in the three counties would only come to the capital to escape the famine.

If it weren't for Han and Zhang, the young and strong group of tens of thousands of people in their hands, and the parents, wives and children of tens of thousands of young and strong parents, wives and children would have only fled to the city and were harvested as slaves and maids by big landlords like Zhang Yiwen and Wang Yao.

Now? No refugees from An Guang and Pinghui have come to the capital city. They are either absorbed by Han and Zhang, or they are absorbed by the landlords and powerful men from the two counties into an army.

There were Han and Zhang attracting firepower outside. The landlords of both counties dared not to be too bad against the young and strong men under their command. Not only did they have to make the young and strong men full, but their families also had to eat well. Otherwise, their treatment would not be as good as the two thieves? Who wouldn't sneak out to commit suicide?

The Dayuan Township incident has become a very profound comparison goal.

Before that incident, the three gentry of Dayuan Township had no good treatment for the thousands of young and strong people who were summoned. Just eat enough, don’t think about it. Your family can barely make do with it and starve to death. When you kill the thief, you can reward you with a few dollars or taels of silver. As for how many days that little silver can be eaten, can you survive this drought? No one cares.

Now this is not possible. The preferential treatment of Han and Zhang thieves to the migrant group has long been known. As long as they follow them, their personal soldiers will have more than three meals a day, and they will have meat every meal. Other young and strong people like civilians can also take care of their fill twice a day and have no meat. Even their family members have distributed a lot of food and continued to eat until the end of the famine, and there is hope.

The landlords and gentry in the two counties had no choice. If they did not follow up on their treatment, their young and strong men would run out to commit suicide. Then, the thief team continued to expand and their number continued to decrease. What would be the outcome?

The Gu family in Dayuan Township is the end!

Because Han and Zhang and civilian families in the two counties have really had a good year of disaster. Who is still coming to the capital city to wait for porridge and sell yourself?

Even the rural towns directly under the Fucheng administration had heard about it, and they abandoned the Fucheng and turned to the two counties after hearing it.

As for Shangxi County? It’s even more nonsense. A powerful man who has had a military career has raised ten thousand soldiers and has been training.

The only thing that reassures the great landlords, such as Wang Yao, Zhang Yiwen, and the great gentry is that the militia in Shangxi had several county-level tyrants who went in to be deputys, and some of them were also among the middle-level people. I don’t worry that the training of the ten thousand militia would become a weapon for a single person after the training.

If it really becomes a weapon for a single person, or is it a person like Wei Wenguang who has many years of military career and many years of experience in private salt? It will become a cancer of the cholera side.

The atmosphere of the entire box became a little depressing, even angry. After a cup of tea, Zhang Yiwen coughed lightly, "Wang Yao, you are the leader of our grain merchants this time. Are you supposed to do something?"

"If this continues, it won't work. Although we have also absorbed a group of slaves in the small handicraftsman group in the Fucheng City by relying on the price of 80 cents per kilogram, the number is far from enough. We are not as good as Tang, Shen and others."

"If this continues, I am afraid that when the group of Mozhe comes back, our major event will end in vain. If the Mozhe comes back, the two thieves from Han and Zhang will probably be defeated by Zhao'an to become a powerful man."

"Their men will be properly placed, and we will have nothing to do."

…………

With Zhang Yiwen's words, many grain merchants were moved. They were not afraid of war. They fought outside and watched the fun in the city. In the end, they held the ceremony of a fisherman. How beautiful?

But there was almost no battle outside. Even in the battle of Dayuan Township, there was no breath of the Bingfeng. It was just that Han Jianzhou attacked him once, and he was killed by only 100 people in the battle.

Wang Yao had a headache. Those two guys are so talented, why did they develop things like this?

After rubbing his temples, he spoke, "Why don't we send troops to fight? Although there are a thousand personal corps and thousands of auxiliary soldiers and civilians over there, there is no deterrent force without guns or cannons."

"As long as there are no guns, even if they are training, we can still get it done in one battle."

Just talk about the circle of the Xiao family in Lu, more than a dozen merchant ships can perform a scene of hundreds of cannons roaring. Tang, Shen and Liu are also younger brothers in the circle of the Xiao family.

It is not difficult for ten thousand private soldiers to gather out a hundred bronze cannons and thousands of bullet guns.

This is the gap and confidence!

He is a top tyrant like the Xiao family, and he still has no confidence in expressing any opinions on the affairs of the three counties.

Their families gathered thousands of people, dozens of artillery, cattle, horses, chariots, a thousand musketeers, and a thousand cavalry. It was not difficult to defeat the two bandits of Han and Zhang.

It's enough to collapse. After the collapse, tens of thousands of young and strong men were all called traitors, so their families were naturally also traitors. More than 10,000 families were enough to eat them.

As soon as these words were said, many people were deliberately moved. Before they could express their opinions, they remembered an emergency knock on the door outside. Wang Yao said in and found that the butler of the royal mansion came in. All the grain merchants' faces changed slightly.

"Master, something big happened. In Yongye Town, Anguang County, hundreds of soldiers contacted the Korean thieves in private, and cooperated with the inside and outside to conquer Yongye Town in an instant. The matter of Dayuan Township was staged in Yongye Town again."

Wang Yao was stunned, and other grain merchants were almost the same.

The housekeeper smiled bitterly, "It is probably their practice in Dayuan Township that made the bottom-level troublemakers look forward to the sweetness. They not only want to eat enough, but also want to survive the drought safely, but also want to restore their freedom and get rid of all usury."

People are greedy. Even after Dayuan Township, the treatment of gentry and powerful men in the two counties to private soldiers has improved a lot compared to normal drought periods. However, who doesn’t want to seize the opportunity and get rid of it?
