Chapter 111 If we run out of money, let's grab it
Chapter 110

Cheng Shijie was sitting in the carriage, watching the video of Mauser's [-]-shot shooting downloaded from the Internet.Cheng Shijie has no chance to get in touch with real guns, even if he has money now, he can go to the real guns and live ammunition shooting club.

For the price of 330 yuan and [-] rounds of pistol ammunition, Cheng Shijie can barely accept it, but the problem is that there are only May [-]th pistols, Type [-] police pistols, shotguns, and rifles in the shooting club. The shooting gallery with real guns and live ammunition did not find Mauser's [-]-ring shooting gallery.

In desperation, Cheng Shijie just downloaded the shooting video of Mauser's [-] rings from the Internet, and watched it for himself.Cheng Shijie actually shot the fire blunderbuss equipped by the Ning Navy in the late Ming Dynasty, as well as the original version of the machine gun, the Thunderbolt blunderbuss.

As a pistol, the recoil of the Mauser is obviously greater than that of ordinary pistols. When shooting, the hand must be held firmly. With Cheng Shijie's strength, there should be no major problems.

When the guards escorted him to the road outside Jinzhou City, the entire official road was full of traffic and it was very lively.After Zhang Huaize accepted Cheng Shijie's task of building roads, he led more than [-] field soldiers and reform-through-labor prisoners to briefly repair the official roads outside Jinzhou City.

It is to fill up the large and small pits on the road with soil. Even so, it is much more convenient for the convoy entering and exiting Jinzhou Acropolis.

Sitting in the carriage, Cheng Shijie started to disassemble the Mauser pistol while playing the downloaded video on his mobile phone, and then installed it clumsily. It's much simpler. For an engineering student, hands-on ability is their absolute advantage.

It took about 25 minutes to travel from the Ning Naval General Mansion in Jinweicheng to the pine forest in the southeast of Jinzhouweicheng. During this 25 minutes, Cheng Shijie disassembled and assembled the Mauser Twenty Rings three times.

Arriving at the pine forest, Cheng Shijie ordered: "Come on!"

"Marshal, please order!"

"Do a search, with the carriage as the center, within a radius of [-] steps, no one is allowed to approach!"

"Yes!"

The [-] guards and soldiers who wrote the official script in the Guard Bureau immediately dispersed.

Cheng Shijie got out of the carriage and saw that the surrounding guards had dispersed. Although the effective range of this Mauser pistol was 150 meters, he was worried and asked the soldiers to disperse five hundred paces away.

"Father, what are you doing?"

"Try the gun!"

Cheng Shijie didn't fire in bursts. He adjusted the pistol to single-shot shooting mode, loaded the clip, opened the safety, raised the pistol, and started shooting.

"boom!"

A wisp of blue smoke spewed out from the muzzle of the gun, and a bullet spun and flew towards a big tree in the distance, but it was a pity that Cheng Shijie aimed at a pine tree thirty paces away, but the bullet hit a tree more than forty paces away. On a pine tree.The body of the unlucky tree shook, and a large piece of bark was lifted off, exploding a large cloud of white sawdust.

Fortunately, Cheng Shijie's strength
Cheng Hu was taken aback. He didn't see Cheng Shijie lighting the match, but the pistol fired directly: "This pistol..."

Cheng Shijie didn't speak, reloaded, aimed, pulled the trigger, and there was a bang.

The tree targeted by Cheng Shijie had a hole in it.He continued to reload, aim, and fire. He fired more than a dozen shots in a row, but none of them misfired.

This shows that the reliability of these bullets is not bad. Although the effective shelf life of bullets is 30 years, the problem is that some bullets can still be fired after six to seventy years.

Cheng Shijie put away the gun in satisfaction after one clip was finished.There were only 240 bullets, he fired 220, and there were [-] bullets left, and it might not be enough if he continued to shoot.

Cheng Shijie has no way to buy new bullets, even though the 7.62mm pistol bullets are still being produced.

The only trouble is that this pistol does not have a holster, but Cheng Shijie can't help it. He has a strong craftsman teammate, and it is too simple to make a Mauser pistol holster.

Cheng Shijie asked the guards to go to the woodware factory to make a gun holster.It's like asking a leather factory to make a suitable leather holster, but it's actually very easy.

When Cheng Shijie came to the woodwork factory in a carriage.Since he did not notify in advance, the big and small heads of the woodware factory did not come out to greet him.

On the contrary, Baihutian Fengshou, who was in charge of guarding the carpentry factory, led dozens of young and strong men, and bowed and bowed his chest: "See you for the humble post!"

"Free gift!"

In Cheng Shijie's eyes, his Tuntian Hundred Households is simply a panacea. Zhang Huaize needs manpower to build roads. Cheng Shijie transfers the military households from the Tuntian Hundred Households. Mashan needs to dig coal mines, and the hundreds of households in the village will be transferred to the top.

For the expansion of the Jinzhou Port Wharf, the expansion of the Gaizhou City Wharf, and the expansion of the resettlement site, Cheng Shijie will put the established Hundred Households on top of it.

As the saying goes, one person attains the Tao, and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. Cheng Shijie started his business relying on the Zuoqianhu of Dengzhou Wei, and the Zuoqianhu of Dengzhouwei also followed suit. Now Ning Haijun has a total of 550 and 550 households. Almost [-]% of the hundred household officials came from the Zuoqianhu Office of Dengzhou Wei.

Baihutian Fengshou, who was in charge of guarding the woodware factory, also came from the Dengzhou Weizuo Qianhu Office, but he was originally a military household of the Dengzhou Wei Hot Spring Baihu Office.

"I didn't know that the commander-in-chief tiger was coming, and I was far away to welcome him, so I ask the commander-in-chief to forgive me!"

"Okay, your kid has also learned how to flatter!"

"Master, please come inside!"

Tian Fengshou caused Cheng Shijie to come to a courtyard of the carpentry factory, and then sent someone to notify the foreman of the carpentry factory.

It was only then that Cheng Shijie discovered that compared with other factories, the factory actually had a large area of ​​courtyards.Almost all of these buildings are mainly wooden buildings, which are also the traditional house structure of the Ming Dynasty. They walked to a yard for temporary rest.

This is a courtyard made entirely of wood. The wood is split into tiles and walls into walls. Even the floor inside the wooden house, the corridors outside, and the handrails are all made of wood. Finally, with the leftovers of the boards, a wooden path is laid, and bowls are used. The stumps with thick mouths formed a small courtyard, and there was a kennel at the entrance of the courtyard, and four or five Shandong fine dogs squatted in the kennel.

Seeing Cheng Shijie coming, these small dogs didn't bark, but were very quiet.

The craftsman in charge of the woodware factory is a strange man named Zhao Chuanfu.He was originally one of the [-] craftsmen under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Ministry of Industry. Zhao Chuanfu, who was just a weak crown, was proficient in large woodwork, small woodwork, sawing, bamboo, tile, mud, brick, kiln, etc. For the twelve types of work he will do, he is skillful and can learn everything very quickly.By chance, he was sent by the Nanjing Ministry of Industry to the home of Ge Yuying, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, to build a pavilion.At that time, the son of Ge Yuying was only eight years old, and he took a fancy to him for making pavilion models.

Mr. Ge snatched the model. In order to get back the model he was going to give to Ge Langzhong, Zhao Chuanfu spent one night carving a sailboat for Ge Dalang with a willow root.This one-foot-three-inch-long sailboat is so lifelike that even the boatmen and characters on it are clearly visible.

Relying on this skill, Zhao Chuanfu won the respect of Ge Langzhong. Later, when the building of Ge's mansion was built, Ge Yuying asked Zhao Chuanfu what reward he wanted.Zhao Chuanfu said he wants to be free.

Because although he was a craftsman affiliated to the Nanjing Ministry of Industry, he was called a craftsman, but he was actually a labor slave, and his income was not enough to make ends meet. Ge Yuying was a wonderful person. He personally managed to get rid of Zhao Chuanfu's lowly status and transferred him to civilian status.

But the problem is, the cost of freedom is too high.Zhao Chuanfu thought that with his skills, he could make money to support himself, marry a wife and have children, and live a good life.

The ideal is very beautiful, but the reality is too cruel.Zhao Chuanfu had just been married for a few years, and when his eldest son was just four years old, his wife, Ye Shi, suffered from angina pectoris. , Soon Zhao Chuanfu couldn't hold on anymore.

Until in order to avoid debts, he became a refugee.Although Zhao Chuanfu is only under 40 years old and looks like a little old man, no one will doubt him if he is [-] years old.

"I don't know why the handsome is looking for the little old man?"

Originally, Cheng Shijie just wanted to make a gun holster, but the problem is, seeing this small wooden courtyard, he changed his mind: "I also want a courtyard like this for the commander's office, how long do you think it will take to finish?"

Zhao Chuanfu was slightly taken aback: "It's not that the commander-in-chief doesn't like extravagance..."

Cheng Shijie said: "It's true that I don't like luxury. What's so luxurious about this wooden house?"

Zhao Chuanfu suddenly realized.

"Ben Shuai, the second thing I came here today is to make you a gun holster!"

"Don't worry, Marshal, it can be built within three days at the most!"

"Three days, so fast?"

"All the parts are off the shelf, just need it!"

Zhao Chuanfu said: "In order to expand the Ninghai Naval Academy, instead of the current Jinzhou Academy, the Woodware Factory has built accessories for more than 1000 houses. This Jinzhou Academy has dozens of houses missing, so it shouldn't matter!"

"Don't worry!"

Cheng Shijie took out a Mauser pistol and started handing it to Zhao Chuanfu, hoping that he could make a handy gun case quickly by himself, or order the craftsmen below. self-defense.

With the power of Mauser's twenty rings, ten or eight people would have no chance to rush to Cheng Shijie at all, and the self-protection ability is enough for the time being.

If Ning Haijun knew that Cheng Shijie had such thoughts, it is estimated that countless people would commit suicide in shame, let alone Cheng Shijie was afraid of death, even if he was not afraid of death, countless people would be willing to block bullets for him.

Because all Ning Navy officers and men know that only with Cheng Shijie can they have hope in the future.

……

With Cheng Shijie's departure, Feng Sanniang, the fake Mrs. Cheng, breathed a sigh of relief, and she and Yang Yunniang began to seriously look at the Ning Navy General Mansion.

The inner house belonging to Cheng Shijie is actually not very big. After all, he used to have no wife or concubine. This Ning Navy General Mansion is divided into four parts. The Dakuanyuan and the six Xiaokuanyuan in its courtyard are the Military Affairs Administration.

This part occupies more than half of the Ning Navy General Army Mansion. In the middle and back yard, the front and rear three-entry houses belong to the Ning Navy general account room under the jurisdiction of Yang Yunniang, but this general account room is also divided into the bank part and the factory part.As for the accounts of Ning Haijun, they are in the hands of the Military Affairs Bureau and the Equipment Bureau.

Feng Sanniang feels that this Ninghai Navy General Mansion is very grand, but there is a strong shabby smell in the atmosphere. No matter which courtyard it is, the architectural style is very grand, and it can be decorated, but it is very simple.

This is due to time constraints, too late.

However, standing in the Ning Navy General Mansion, you can see thick smoke rising from the chimneys outside. These are the chimneys in the factories around Jinzhou Acropolis.

In Feng Sanniang's view, Jinzhou Weicheng is a very strange place, not to mention clean and tidy, but also full of vitality. It is completely different from those dirty and messy guards that look like beggars' dens. The state city, and even the prefecture city must be vigorous.

The people here seem to have endless energy, and they work in a hurry, which is in stark contrast to the numbness and indifference of other guards.

Feng Sanniang said: "As a teacher, I have traveled south and north. I have been to many places, but there is no place like Jinzhou Acropolis. It seems..."

"Seems like what?"

"This Marshal Cheng can cast spells and replace everyone's souls with his soul, making them all positive..."

Yang Yunniang suddenly found that her master seemed to like this place a little bit.

Just as Yang Yunniang guessed, after being deceived by Zhou Shichen, Feng Sanniang had completely given up on her feelings. If Cheng Shijie wanted to, she would always pretend to be Mrs. Cheng.

There is no need to worry about eating and drinking here, the key is not to worry about fear, even if the former enemies come to the door, who would dare to come to Ning Haijun's General Military Mansion?
After lunch and changing into a brand new dress, Feng Sanniang began to assume the duties of Mrs. Cheng. Of course, please don't get me wrong, she is not sleeping with her, but coming out to comfort Cheng Shijie.

Feng Sanniang said to Yang Yunniang: "You ask Marshal Cheng for instructions..."

"What are you asking for?"

"I need some supplies for my teacher!"

"Please tell Master!"

Yang Yunniang said: "The commander-in-chief has already ordered, what master needs, Yunniang will do it!"

"It seems that you, a dead girl, are quite favored!"

"Master... look at you..."

"I want money for my teacher!"

"Under 3 taels of silver, Yunniang can pay Master at any time!"

Yang Yunniang said with a serious face: "If it is more than 3 taels of silver, it needs to be reported to the commander for approval!"

"Oh!"

Feng Sanniang said: "You don't need money for the teacher, but you need some shoes, socks, and clothes. On the way here for the teacher, I saw many people still in rags, so I went to prepare some worthless clothes! "

Yang Yunniang immediately wrote a note and asked Qiao'er, Xue'er, Jing Jing, and An Ning to prepare.These materials are six pancakes, about three catties, four pairs of socks, two pairs of shoes, and a cotton coat.

These things are wrapped together with a three-foot cloth, and one serving is a pack.

It didn't take long. After these things were prepared, Feng Sanniang took the cart loaded with supplies and headed to the resettlement site outside Jinzhou City.

The military households and common people in Liaodong who came to the south of Liaoning thought that this winter would be very difficult to stay up late, but in fact, this winter is not difficult. There are job opportunities everywhere...

For example, in the eyes of Cheng Shijie, if you can’t eat a meal of dumplings during the Chinese New Year, this year is incomplete. In order to allow the soldiers and civilians in southern Liaoning to eat dumplings, Cheng Shijie started preparing half a month ago. Commercial channels, all-round purchase of wheat from Shandong, Henan, Tianjin, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and even Jiangnan.

It was originally planned to distribute [-] catties of flour to each person, but as the population in southern Liaoning increased, people came to seek refuge almost every day. This wheat can be bought with money, but the problem is that it is not easy to process the flour.

For this reason, more than 100 mills were built in southern Liaoning at one go, which were specially used for emergency flour processing. These Liaodong people who came to southern Liaoning could go to various factories to build houses, earn a bucket of grain a day, and also get flour. A processing factory is a mill that processes flour. You can also go to various factories to do odd jobs, pick coal, and go to the briquette field to make briquettes. Although a hundred briquettes only cost one penny, a strong man can produce tens of thousands of briquettes a day. Coal briquettes can also earn hundreds of pennies.

The work of making briquettes is very hard, but the problem is that as long as you are not afraid of tiredness and hard work, people in southern Liaoning will not starve to death. In fact, people in eastern Liaodong will basically not starve to death when they arrive in southern Liaoning.

This is a town located outside Jinzhou City. The town now only has a simple wall. Inside the earthen wall, the homesteads of each household have been planned. After getting the garrison army that belongs to their own homestead, they began to tidy up. Some are tamping the foundation, while others are preparing plant ash in the planned vegetable field, which is the fertilizer used to fertilize the field.

There are also people who start to make fences with branches on their own homesteads, and those who have the conditions start to build grass sheds, or directly use soil frames to make adobe on the spot and prepare to build houses.

"Fellow folks, all hundreds of households, bring yours to the threshing ground at the entrance of our town to gather. Our handsome wife has come to visit you, and the handsome lady has brought a lot of good things..."

As the mayor began to announce with a simple loudspeaker, most of the people in the town are actually old and weak, women and children. The real strong laborers are either working on the construction site or in the factory. Anyway, no one is idle.

The cold wind is howling. On the threshing ground in the town, there is a long row of convoys parked. The carts are full of supplies. These supplies are sorted and placed, including quilts, blankets, washbasins, and bowls. Chopsticks, iron pans, kitchen knives, cutting boards, etc. are all household tools. In fact, these things were originally planned by Cheng Shijie to be distributed to all the military households in the village.

It's just that the quantity is insufficient, there is no way to distribute it as a whole, and there is no shortage but unevenness.

Hansteel Group had a similar incident, which aroused strong dissatisfaction among employees.

In fact, that time was only due to an accident. The group company issued a year-end welfare notice. Everyone knew that two boxes of apples, two boxes of pears, and other things would be given out during the Chinese New Year.But the problem is that during the distribution, a truck transporting fruit rolled over, and 28 tons of fruit was loaded and was broken, so it was too late to make an impromptu transfer.

Although the announcement was made at the first time, the employees did not believe the company's explanation, and rumors and curses were flying everywhere. It was not until the fruit was transferred later that the fruit incident subsided.When you are not fully prepared, it is actually better not to pay the benefits.

Originally, Cheng Shijie still had some headaches, but now he is fine, Mrs. Cheng helped him solve this problem.

Not according to the head, not according to the family, but according to Feng Sanniang's wishes, what is caught is randomly distributed.

Because of the randomness, no one said anything. This is like opening a blind box. If you are unlucky, can you blame others?

Feng Sanniang, dressed in a splendid attire, accepted the salute of the common people in a grandiose manner: "The grass people pay homage to my wife!"

Feng Sanniang will send the prepared things to the hands of the common people one by one: "You have suffered, the commander will lead everyone to live a good life, believe in the commander, next year will be even better!"

Feng Sanniang is the master of Yanmen, her acting skills are really not blown out, her voice is gentle, especially her eyes are slightly red, and when she sees a child in rags, she will cry from distress.

Her every move moved all the people deeply.Even though it was obvious that some supplies were lost, the problem is that these people have no complaints, because from her mouth, everyone knows, and Marshal Cheng doesn't know. Originally, Marshal Cheng has tens of thousands of family fortunes, but these many people in Liaonan, The Cheng family is now bankrupt, this is the Cheng family can take out everything, in order to change everyone's stuttering, Cheng Dashuai has lost dozens of catties.

This is really not a lie, especially those who knew Cheng Shijie earlier, they all know that Cheng Shijie used to be a big fat man weighing more than 200 kilograms, but now he has become very strong.

"Long live the handsome!"

"The Marshal Lord Wandai!"

When all the soldiers and civilians kowtowed to Feng Sanniang to thank, Song Xiance and Cheng Shijie, who was wearing a Mauser for twenty rings, were not far away.

"My lord, this "madame"..."

Before Song Xiance finished speaking, Zhou Yandong said with some distress: "Too prodigal!"

Zhou Yandong didn't know that the lady in front of him was a fake, but he was very distressed. It was not easy for Ning Haijun to buy these things now, whether it was bedding, clothes, agricultural tools, hatchets, axes, shoes, etc. , can be sold for money.

Cheng Shijie and Ning Haijun took advantage of the Dengzhou Mutiny, the Kong Youde Rebellion, and the previous suppression of bandits to get a lot of money, but now there are more and more people, and there are more places to spend money. You can't spend it like this.

"pattern!"

Song Xiance said angrily: "Deputy General Zhou, where is the layout? You can't just stare at the palm-sized place in front of you..."

"I think you, Mr. Song, don't know Chai Migui if you are not in charge of the family!"

Zhou Yandong said: "Although there is a lot of land that we can reclaim in southern Liaoning, these are all new fields. We can't grow fine crops such as rice and wheat within a year or two. The military expenditure of more than [-] troops is not enough for so many troops. Households and craftsmen eat, drink, and scatter, not to mention raising so many cattle, sheep and horses, they also have to eat part of the food, and soldiers who have made military exploits also get a piece of money and food as rewards... It is not enough! "

Cheng Shijie said lightly: "There is no money, let's go grab it!"

PS: There is more in the evening. This chapter was originally in the morning. I had chemotherapy for the first time in the morning. It was very painful, so I couldn’t type it. I hope everyone understands!
