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

Chapter 59 Ning Haijun's only shortcoming
Chapter 058

This moment, that moment.

When he came to Dengzhou City again, Cheng Shijie's situation was different.

This time he brought fifty personal guards with him. These fifty personal guards were divided into two teams at the front and back, and they lined up in two columns to guard Cheng Shijie's carriage. Embroidered with official script, they are: "Dengzhou Ning Naval Defense Program!", "Mingwei General Program".

When fifty personal guards are dressed in armor and iron, with dogleg knives hanging from their waists, pistols and spears with their heads held high, their eyes fixed on each other, and they are walking forward in a mighty way, fifty feet are raised and lowered at the same time, making a strange step. Rhythm, the whole army is as neat as two straight ropes.

In particular, the footsteps of the fifty personal guards stepped on the stone pavement in Dengzhou City, and their voices were exceptionally clear. This unique march quickly attracted countless people to watch.

Of course, the people are still afraid of the army. Three months ago, outside the city of Dengzhou, the tragedy of the massacre of the Liaodong refugees by the Dengzhou army is still vivid.

But this different army, marching silently, gave people a sense of peace of mind.When Cheng Shijie and his pro-army walked over, the common people began to discuss.

"Who led this soldier? Military discipline is so strict that no one speaks!"

"Don't talk, don't even look at me!"

An old half-mother Xu who still has charm, said with some regret.

"I don't know, they are Ning Haijun!"

"Ning Haijun? When did we have such an army in Dengzhou?"

"Dengzhou Wei Zuo Qianhu knows about it?"

"Know!"

"They actually belong to Qianhusuo..."

Before this man finished speaking, someone immediately retorted: "Fart!"

In this day and age, people would rather believe that sows can climb trees than believe that guards are reliable.No one knows what kind of bird Dengzhou Wei is!

"Don't you believe it. More than two months ago, Cheng Qianhu, the new member of the Dengzhou Weizuo Qianhu Office, led the military households of the Qianhu Office, and wiped out the bandit Qin Wu!"

"It's not just Qin Wu, Qin Sanshan, the tiger down the mountain, the leopard in the forest, the fly on the grass, the tiger in the mountain, and Li Guang, all the bandits who can be named, let Ning Haijun wipe out!"

"so smart?"

"You will know when you go to Ninghai Prefecture now, and I guarantee that there will be no bandits who dare to come out to rob!"

"It would be great if every officer and soldier was like them! A few more troops with such strict military discipline, do we still need to suffer so much?"

……

Cheng Shijie didn't know what these people were talking about. Sitting in the carriage, he felt that the carriage was a bit stuffy, so he opened the window to let in some air.At this time, Dengzhou City is still full of garbage and filth.

In terms of sanitation, Dengzhou City is more like a rural place than Ninghai City.

The horse continued to walk along the long street.

When passing Xingpinghao pawn shop, suddenly, Cheng Shijie shouted: "Stop!"

Because Cheng Shijie saw an acquaintance, said he was acquainted, but in fact he just met on both sides, that is, Liu San whom Cheng Shijie met when he first came to Dengzhou City.

At this time, Liu San was wearing a shabby single-clothes, shivering in the cold wind. He was begging for a Scarface wearing a strong suit, but that Scarface was so arrogant that he threw Liu San down. on the ground.

When Liu San struggled to get up, he covered his arms, showing that the fall was not light.

Liu San couldn't recognize Cheng Shijie at this time. In fact, Cheng Shijie almost couldn't recognize himself. He lost at least fifty catties in just over three months. He didn't know why. What happened, now I just want to be a different person.

"Cheng Hu!"

"Father!"

"Go and ask what's going on!"

Today is different from the past, a local hooligan like Scarface is no longer worthy of an interview with Cheng Shijie.

Not long after, Cheng Hu returned in front of the carriage: "Reporting to foster father, I have found out clearly that this Liu San, in order to treat his mother's illness, borrowed Lai Wu's money..."

Cheng Shijie said: "Go and ask how much money, and pay back Liu San's debt!"

"Yes!"

Cheng Shijie is not a good person, but he has lived in Ninghai City for a long time. It is twenty or forty miles away from Dengzhou, which is a little inconvenient. He plans to set up an office in Dengzhou City, just like the local provincial office in later generations, responsible for some daily work. Inquiries for trivia and news.

Just like this time, there was no news about Zhang's lawsuit against him in Laiyang, but Liu San was a local snake in Dengzhou City, hanging out on the street. Missing an opportunity.

If Liu San is capable of handling Cheng Shijie's affairs in Dengzhou, then he can be supported. Anyway, Cheng Shijie's house in Dengzhou is vacant.

Lai Wu is a ruffian with good eyesight. Although Cheng Shijie is a military officer, in the eyes of civilian officials, military officer is nothing, but in the eyes of these ruffians, military officer can be regarded as a great figure.

Cheng Hu wanted to repay Liu San's debt, but Lai Wu didn't dare to open his mouth. He collected the principal of [-] yuan, and didn't dare to ask for the interest.

Liu San knelt in front of Cheng Shijie's carriage. The clothes on his body were too thin, there was not a few taels of cotton in the interlayer of the robe, and his body was shaking with cold.

Cheng Shijie got out of the carriage and untied his open fur cloak and put it on Liu San: "Liu San!"

Hearing Cheng Shijie's voice, Liu San recognized Cheng Shijie, and immediately knelt down again.

Cheng Shijie patted Liu Sandao: "I want to ask you to run errands for me in the future, what do you want?"

Liu San was a little excited: "Little man... Thank you, master!"

"By the way, who else is in your family?"

Cheng Shijie said: "I have a house in Dengzhou City, and I still lack some odd jobs. If there are other people in the family, come along with me!"

"I still have my old lady at home, and my sister Wuniang!"

Liu San used to have seven brothers and sisters. The eldest Liu San had never met because he died before his first birthday. His second brother had seen him. He served corvee last year and never came back.The fourth child was bitten on the leg by a wolf on the pier two years ago. He had no money to treat him. He survived for half a month but did not survive. Only the fifth sister was sold to be a child bride. The sixth sister was weak and sick and only lived for three years , as for the seventh child, he is now nine years old.

Liu San's family is actually the epitome of the common people in the late Ming Dynasty.

"Take your mother and your sister to Shiqiao Lane, and take care of the house at ordinary times, the work is not heavy!"

Cheng Shijie said: "Cheng Hu, take Liu San to make arrangements!"

"Yes, foster father!"

Liu San was already in tears at this time, he was about to kneel down, Cheng Shijie helped him up and said: "There is gold under the man's knees, work hard!"

Cheng Shijie got into the car directly and continued to walk towards the Dengzhou government office.

Arriving at the Yamen of Dengzhou Prefecture, under the guidance of Peng Jianhong, Cheng Shijie directly entered the atrium of the Yamen.

After waiting for half an hour, Sun Yuanhua walked over with Xu Dacheng.

Cheng Shijie bowed and said, "I pay my respects to Mr. Futai!"

"Shijie, no courtesy!"

Sun Yuanhua stepped forward to help Cheng Shijie up and said, "How is Ning Haijun's training now?"

At first, Sun Yuanhua was indeed suing Cheng Shijie Tumin because of the Laiyang Zhang family, but after Sun Yuanhua investigated, he found that the household registration of Zhangzhuang Village proposed by the Laiyang Zhang family was actually brand new. As an experienced official, Sun Yuanhua recognized it at first sight. It turned out that this document was forged.

When Sun Yuanhua directly rejected the Laiyang Zhang's pleadings, it was obvious that he no longer gave the Laiyang Zhang's face.

Historically, Sun Yuanhua never thought that Kong Youde would rebel. As for the matter of stealing chickens was too small to deserve his attention, he naturally did not defend Kong Youde.

But it is different now, Dalinghe is now running out of ammunition and food, and the court has ordered him to lead the Denglai new army to Liaodong. In this case, Cheng Shijie's role is very important.

He didn't trust the commander of the Shandong capital, nor the Shandong Beiwo capital, but he believed in Cheng Shijie who he had pulled together.Sun Yuanhua is willing to take the lead for Cheng Shijie, and would rather refute the face of Laiyang Zhang, a local snake, because Cheng Shijie is useful.

In fact, the same is true in the workplace of later generations.Cheng Shijie actually has no backer in Hangang Group, and there are many people who want to squeeze him out, but the problem is that any leader hopes to have all kinds of talents under his command, who are good at flattery, and can flatter them. Be ecstatic.

It also needs someone who is good at observing words and expressions, who can understand the meaning of the leader with just one look.Of course, people who can work and do things are also needed. Cheng Shijie is such a person with solid business skills.

After all, any unit needs political achievements, and no unit or organization should lack people who can do practical things. If such people are gone, the unit or organization will become a balloon that will burst with a single poke.

Is the leader's IQ lower than that of ordinary people?

The answer is yes, they are not low in IQ, nor do they make obvious mistakes.

Cheng Shijie said: "Ning Haijun is well-trained now, but there is still a lot of shortfalls in equipment for the time being. Fortunately, the mechanical equipment sent by Master Futai can thoroughly understand these equipments. Su's division of tigers and wolves, under the command of Master Futai, fight wherever they point!"

"very good!"

Sun Yuanhua smiled lightly and said: "Shijie, you came at the right time this time. Last time you said that you would build the Ning Navy into a unit with infantry, cavalry, navy, artillery, and various arms. The cavalry in the Ning Navy With it, there is also artillery, gunpowder and long and short soldiers, and the last shortcoming is the navy."

"That's right, the rivers in Terengganu are densely packed. Although most of the rivers are blocked, once they are cleared, it will be convenient to irrigate the good fields in the river basin, and the troops can be quickly transferred to the place where they are needed through the waterway. Having a naval force is very important for Ningzhou. For the navy, it is very important!"

"This constitution will make up for Ning Haijun's shortcoming!"

Sun Yuanhua said with a smile: "It's not too late, let's go to Penglai Water City now, and you also go to meet your navy division."

Cheng Shijie said: "The subordinates take orders!"

PS: I got off work too late yesterday, and I didn’t get home until 11:30 in the evening. I wrote more than 1000 words and fell asleep. I’m very sorry, there will be more later.
