I really don't want to be emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 18
Chapter 017

Zhang Yu took the wrong name, including his brother Zhang Fu as well.

Although his father's breed is good and gave him a tall figure, Zhang Yu has never had enough food since he can remember. He is a military household, and his elder brother Zhang Fu has surpassed his father's. He was short and became a sergeant in the Wenshui Hundred Households Office of Weizuo Thousand Households Office in Dengzhou.

And Changyu had to fend for himself. He has been carrying bags on the pier since he was 12 years old. Although he worked very hard, he had a big appetite and could barely eat half full.

Until the new master Qianhu came to the Qianhusuo, and the master Qianhu wanted to recruit soldiers, so he came over to try.

Although he was kicked, it was heavy and painful, but compared to being beaten by dozens of people on the pier, it was still a trivial matter.

Zhang Yu came to the yard and asked a young man, "Can I eat here?"

Before the boy answered, Cheng Shijie said, "You can eat it!"

Zhang Yu said to Cheng Shijie: "Little man Zhang Yu, meet Lord Qianhu!"

"Good guy!"

Cheng Shijie said: "Give him food!"

The bowls and chopsticks in the Qianhusuo were either tattered or too small. Zhang Yu looked at a soup basin with a diameter of almost one foot: "How about filling half of it for me?"

"Eat yours!"

Zhang Yu didn't think it was too hot either, he used his chopsticks to shove the rice into his mouth quickly, grinning his teeth as he ate it.

Cheng Shijie also sighed: "He is really a big eater!"

Others just ate half a bowl, but Changyu ate a whole bowl.

Zhang Yu took the basin to serve the rice again.

The cook looked at Zhang Yu in embarrassment: "That's a pot!"

"I'm not full!"

"I'm afraid you will die!"

"I'm even more afraid of being hungry!"

While Changyu was eating the second bowl of rice, some people came in one after another from the yard, also lined up to eat, and started to eat.

Cheng Shijie didn't look any further, he was very relieved that Shen Mingyu had chosen to check it out, and there was nothing he could do if he didn't worry, no one could use him now.

Just when Cheng Shijie was about to go to bed, Shen Mingyu reported to him: "Dong...Master Qianhu, there are too many people to choose now!"

"How many!"

"160 people!"

Shen Mingyu said: "Every one of them is a master, and among them, there are more than one hundred and two lives!"

Cheng Shijie believed in Shen Mingyu's judgment, he nodded and said, "It's not too much, I can support a thousand households!"

How stupid is it that a thousand households near the coast can live worse than a beggar?

Cheng Shijie took a look at the military fields of Zuoqianhusuo, and knew that it would be useless to rely on farmland, even if it was impossible to get corn, sweet potato, and potato seeds. These fields are bad fields with serious salinization. Relying on ditches, there is no water source to irrigate, and there is no time for slow development.

Of course, you can get food from the sea, fish, and dry salt. Although Qianhusuo is not qualified to sell salt, they can use their own salt, and military households have this right.Including the mining of steel within the jurisdiction, there is almost nothing that cannot be done in the corrupt officialdom of Daming.

If it can't be done, it means that there is not enough money.

After these military households had enough to eat, they slept in the Qianhu House according to the arrangement.

The night was uneventful, and when it was almost dawn, these young and strong elites were awakened by a burst of fragrance. At this time, the kitchen of Qianhu House began to prepare breakfast.

"dinner's ready!"

Cheng Shijie immediately heard the scene like hundreds of pigs eating crazily, and the scene was quite spectacular.

After waiting for more than a quarter of an hour, Cheng Shijie coughed: "There is still time for a stick of incense to eat, gather after eating!"

The elites finished eating quickly, and they were invited into the middle courtyard.

Cheng Shijie told Cheng Shi and Cheng Hu's adopted sons: "Close the door and don't let anyone get close!"

"Yes!"

Cheng Shi and Cheng Hu left with their knives in hand.

"Meet Lord Qianhu!"

Cheng Shijie looked at the crowd and said, "Do you know what Ben Qianhu asked you to come here for?"

Zhang Yudao: "Be the servant of Lord Qianhu!"

"Yes, not right~!"

Cheng Shijie said: "This thousand households came to our Qianhu Office. What they saw and heard was only one word, miserable. Two words are miserable. Why is our Qianhu Office so miserable? Why are everyone so poor? Most of the boys Guang Don’t they know how to be ashamed? No, because they are poor, but do you know why they are so poor?”

All the young and strong looked puzzled.

"Because Gao Wang, that bastard, is the one who made everyone in our Thousand Households Miserable. Last year, he sold out everyone's living food, the ordnance in the armory warehouse, the grain in the granary, and the valuable things in the Thousand Households House. They were all sold out by him, Ben Qianhu is now sleeping without even a bed, can everyone bear this?"

Everyone now vaguely heard what Cheng Shijie meant, and they gasped. This is the rhythm of robbing Gaoqianhu, but they like it.

Song Kangnian imagined how Shijie would win people's hearts and intimidate him?Incentives?Differentiate, win over?

However, the problem is that Cheng Shijie didn't speak up, nor did he offer advice, because he was still a little reserved.

Song Kangnian did not expect that Cheng Shijie would use this method to kill Gao Wang and snatch the property in his hands. Not only would he be able to overcome the current difficulty, but he would also form an alliance of interests with these more than 100 people, advancing together and retreating together .

Just like a Liangshan hero, when you go to Liangshan, you should first accept the vote.

Sure enough, Cheng Shijie said: "Participating in the operation, everyone will be given ten taels of silver, 20 taels for injuries, and 50 taels for deaths. However, there is one thing you must keep in mind for this thousand households: take care of your own money." Mouth, even in a dream, you can't utter a single word, once it leaks out, you will lose your head, remember?"

"remember!"

"This is a head-scratching job. If someone is afraid, they can quit now. Does anyone want to quit now?"

Zhang Yu licked his lips: "Idiots quit!"

Cheng Shijie waved his hand, and Shen Mingyu took over a large cart. On the cart was the steel knife that Cheng Shijie bought from later generations during this period. Of course, he did not buy it from an online store, it was produced within Hangang Group.

No scabbard, just a LUO knife.

The steel mills under the Han Steel Group have a factory specializing in the production of bearing steel. These steel knives are uniformly made of bearing steel. After a complex quenching process, they not only have high hardness, but are also not easy to break.

Using the fully automatic production line of the steel factory, it took less than midnight to produce this batch of more than 200 knives. Several masters, each of whom stuffed a red envelope, cost less than [-] in total.

Even the blade has been opened, it will definitely be a magic weapon in the late Ming Dynasty.

Handing out the knives one by one, Cheng Shijie said: "Gao Wang, this bastard is carrying so many things, he must not be able to run fast, we can still catch up, let's go!"

At this time, the cooks in the front yard had already prepared dry food bags. Each person carried a bag of dry food, which was dead flour pancakes. Each bag contained five catties. Considering that these young and strong are big-bellied men, they prepared a little more .

Each person took another water bag. Originally, Cheng Shijie wanted to buy military aluminum water bottles from later generations, but it was a pity that he could only carry [-] to [-] kilograms of weight each time. It took him three times to carry these knives.

There are still 150 war horses on the account of Dengzhou Weizuo Qianhu, but now there are none. These 160 newly recruited family soldiers can only run forward.

Of course, Cheng Shijie and Song Kangnian didn't run forward, they moved forward in a carriage. This carriage looks the same as other carriages, but in fact it has been modified, with springs and bearings installed. Later generations get some batteries and motors to modify an electric car.

Because of the overnight delay, Cheng Shijie thought it would take a long time to catch up. What he didn't expect was that after only running for more than forty miles, Shen Mingyu, who was in charge of scouting ahead, reported: "Lord Qianhu, we have caught up with them~ !"

"how is this possible!"

Cheng Shijie didn't know until he saw Gao Wang's convoy from afar that Gao Wang was too slamming, he was not willing to let his subordinate soldiers go forward in the car, but just hurried on his way.

Cheng Shijie ordered: "Catch up, don't leave anyone alive!"
