Chapter 34
After Liu Jun and Li Chunjiang left, Mr. Zhao took the written arms purchase order and looked up and down again, muttering to himself, "This Liu Jiye is interesting." After that, he put the list in his arms, got up and walked towards the backyard.
In the backyard, Mei Zhihuan and Li Changgeng were leisurely drinking tea and playing chess under a big tree.
"Are they leaving?" Li Changgeng asked without raising his head.
"Just leaving." Mr. Zhao replied.
"You didn't tell them we were here, did you?"
"No." Mr. Zhao replied, "Mr. Mei, Mr. Li, this is the order they placed, very unusual."
After hearing Mr. Zhao's comments that were very unusual, Mei Zhihuan and Li Changgeng were both interested. Originally, they came here specially today to see how the two young people would order weapons. Originally, Mei Zhihuan planned to have him equipped the horse team with weapons directly, but Li Changgeng opposed it.
He supported his nephew's horse team to help him get a little more experienced and understand some military affairs. It was more of a process than a result. Li Chunjiang did not really go to the village group to lead troops, so he naturally wanted to let him do more.
However, he was not completely relieved. No matter how experienced he was, someone still had to help him take care of him. If something went wrong, he could also give advice and correct him. This is the experience.
Mr. Zhao took out the list and handed it over.
Li Changgeng looked at it first, and after scanning it, he couldn't help but smile, "It's really interesting."
"Oh, after hearing what you said, I can't wait to see what's interesting." Mei Zhihuan took it, glanced at it, and sighed, "Is it interesting, Lao Zhao, did they really set this list by themselves, or did you recommend it?"
"Oh, Mr. Mei is wronged by me. I am just responsible for explaining the performance of the equipment to them. As for what kind of equipment to buy, how much to buy, and how to match it, this is entirely their own meaning. Well, in fact, this is actually what Mr. Liu Jiye wants to do. Although Mr. Chunjiang is Duke Jieyuan, he has no deep understanding of these weapons. For example, at the beginning, Mr. Chunjiang wanted to buy all three-eyed guns, saying that in the past, the iron cavalry in Liaodong liked to use three-eyed guns, but Mr. Liu Jiye could clearly explain the advantages and disadvantages of the three-eyed guns, and said that the three-eyed guns were actually not good, and proposed some proof of better performance of the bird guns."
"Liu Jiye actually knows firearms so clearly. It seems that Huangzhou Weiwu Teaching is still good." Mei Zhihuan laughed for a while, "But why did only purchase thirty bird guns on this list?"
"I heard Liu Jiye meant that the horse team was organized into a brigade, with two squadrons under the jurisdiction of each squadron, with three squadrons under the jurisdiction of one squadron, one squadron leader and one gang of soldiers, plus ten combat soldiers, including four bird gunners, four bow and knife hands and two hook gunners. Therefore, there are only twenty-four bird gunners in the team, and thirty bird gunners are purchased, six of which are available for backup."
"Twelve people, one team, three teams, one squadron, two squadrons and one squadron. This marshal is not bad. There is indeed some method of Qi Shaobao training. Liu Jiye really underestimated him. Not only is he brave and resourceful, but he is also brave and knowledgeable. A mere martial artist, he already knows the key to military strategy. Well, we can rest assured now, let them go, don't worry about this." Although Mei Zhihuan was a Jinshi, he was a rank of officials, but he often led troops to suppress bandits and fight, and was no stranger to military affairs. Just based on Mr. Zhao's words and the establishment of this cavalry team, he could see that Liu Jiye really understood military affairs.
Although they are still young, they are in the village group, and even if they have to face in the future, they will only be some bandits, which is enough.
"Old Zhao, when he placed an order there, he told them that this batch of goods belonged to me, Mei, and he must be exquisite, and there is no flaw."
"Yes, the students understand."
Li Changgeng smiled while stroking his beard, "It turned out that he heard Chunjiang say he wanted to set up a 200-man team. Now it seems that he still trusts Liu Jiye very much. The 200-man team has become about 70 people, which is smaller in scale, but for those of them, it is just right."
"Come on, let's continue playing chess. Let's let the young people do their own things, and don't worry about them." Mei Zhihuan urged.
After Liu Jun and Li Chunjiang left, they walked all the way. Li Chunjiang said, "Uncle Mei Shishi has selected a barracks for us, just fifty miles southwest of the county."
Liu Jun is now familiar with his original body memories and knows that Huangzhou was Yong'an County in the Sui Dynasty, and the Queen's City was actually Yong'an County, commonly known as Queen's City. Later, the King's City was built. The King's City has a glorious history, but it has long been destroyed. Now the Queen's City is actually a village.
However, because this village lives in the middle of the road from Macheng to Huanggang, Huangzhou Fucheng, this village has become a market in the township. On a daily basis, people nearby come to market, so the village is very lively, with many shops and even walls surrounding it, just like a small town.
Now Mei Zhihuan lets their team station in Queen's City, which obviously takes care of them and treats them preferentially. It is much more convenient to be stationed in such a lively market.
"Then we will set out to Queen's City tomorrow." Liu Jun said.
"Don't be so anxious. After all, the equipment will take several days to arrive. I think it's time for the horse team brothers to go home and settle down in the next two days. You still need time." Li Chunjiang said, laughing, "Good boy, I really didn't expect you to do something to steal the bride, but I've inquired about the whole story. This bride is good, how can a man be a real man without any blood? He should be willing to avenge him. Of course, he was your old love in the past, so you can't let others rob him."
"But you have snatched everyone back now. What are you going to do next? You can't keep the girl living in the inn, what does this look like?"
Liu Jun didn't think about this for a while.
"I want me to tell you, don't let my mother-in-law and mother, so I have a small courtyard in the county town. Although it is not very luxurious, it is also very quiet and not worth a lot of money, so I will give it to you. Take your brother and sister out and place it there. When you look back, after the work, I will accompany you to the Lu family and give you more gifts. There is no reason why the Lu family will not allow you to do good things."
"Or, you might as well cook the rice with raw rice. By then, Mr. Lu will have no reason to object. Hahaha!"
Liu Jun chuckled helplessly, "I thank you for the house. As for the rest, let's wait." It's really hard to say about the relationship with Lu Xueqi now. After all, he is not Liu Jun, but now he has snatched people out. In the Ming Dynasty, it was already considered a robbery and an elopement, which means that he has now got involved with the Li family, otherwise the Zhou family could go to sue Liu Jun.
Not to mention the official side, since the girl has already eloped with you, it is equivalent to following you. However, Liu Jun feels that he still needs some time to get along with him and be familiar with him.
Otherwise, it would be too unfamiliar to be able to do it.
When they arrived on the street, Zhang Shan and his brothers were already waiting for him.
"Let's go, move with me."
When the brothers heard that Li Chunjiang had sent Liu Jun a yard to accommodate his sister-in-law, they all started to make a fuss and said that they would just get married in the bridal chamber tonight. Everyone returned to the inn and Liu Jun went in first.
Lu Xueqi was in good spirits and was chatting with her maid Yaoyao. When she saw Liu Jun coming back, she immediately got up, but when she arrived in front of her, she didn't know what to say, but instead she blushed on her face.
"I set up a small courtyard next to Wanshou Temple in the South Gate. It was given to me by the public. The place is not big, but it is very quiet. I think we will move here today. After all, we can't stay in the inn all the time. What do you think?" Liu Jun asked straight to the point.
Lu Xueqi's blush even more, "I listened to Erlang." After saying that, his face turned aside.
Liu Junxin said, sister, I just said that if you move there, you are not going to live with you right away. Why are you doing so shy? But I thought to myself, is it because the girl has already allowed her to live together by default?
Lu Xueqi jumped over the wall and left home, so she didn't bring any clothes and salutes at all, so she just brought a maid with her. Therefore, it was said that she was moving, but there was nothing to move, and she even used a deposit to pay for the inn. She went out and called a Jiaozi, and then a group of brothers hugged her for a while and arrived at Li Chunjiang's yard.
Li Chunjiang said it was a small courtyard, but it was a three-entry house with more than a dozen rooms. Not to mention arranging Lu Xueqi's master and servant, there would be no problem even if he lived in another twenty or thirty people.
Li Chunjiang had been waiting here for a long time, and even after so much skill, he had sent someone to the plaque-making shop and immediately made a plaque from Liu's mansion and sent it over.
"Hang this plaque, and this will be Brother Jiye's house in the future."
"Second brother, go to the restaurant to order two tables of tables and tables to deliver them." Liu Jun called Zhang Shan to give instructions.
"Erlang, will this be our home in the future?" After Lu Xueqi entered the mansion, she kept looking at the yard. Her eyes were full of appreciation. It was not that she had never seen a large mansion. In fact, the wealthy businessman in the Lu family had much larger houses than this. But in her eyes, even if it was broken, it was different. This was the home of her and her sweetheart.
From the moment she climbed over the wall and jumped out of the Lu family, she had decided to follow Liu Jun from now on. But in her heart, she was not worried.
Now that Liu Jun has purchased a house and brought her over, she finally achieved success in her opinion.
"Well, this will be our family in the future." Liu Jun could feel the affection in her words. Perhaps the Liu Jun in the past would remember her shakenness in her heart, but for Liu Jun now, although she had shaken her, she had not changed her feelings in the next two years, which is rare.
She had left the house and left so resolutely, and she would never have a chance to look back. If Liu Jun did not accept it, this woman who had never gone downstairs in two years might have done something more resolute.
"There are fewer servants at home, so I'll look for some people to come later. Otherwise, I'm not relieved if there are only two of you in the house."
"Can't Erlang live here?" Lu Xueqi's face suddenly turned pale, and her eyes began to moisten.
刘钧没想到此时她这么敏感,当下连忙道,“我自然也是住这里的,不过三天后就要去女王城,我们马队的营地在那里.那里离这里有五十里地呢,不可能每天回来的.”刘钧连忙解释.
"Then Erlang also took me to the Queen's City. There is no need for such a house. Just have a place to settle down. I don't want to separate from Erlang."
"I want to train the village heroes there, and I usually have to live in the camp. I can't accompany you even if you go there, so I'll stay here. I'll come back when I have time."
