Chapter 354 Jiang Liuer

Jiang Chuan rushed to the harbor twenty miles away from Shanhaiguan with the guards and engineering battalions.

Although this harbor is not too big, it is not too small either.

A simple pier has been built on the harbor, with some simple houses on the pier, and a few dilapidated fishing boats tied to the shore.

After Jiangchuan sent people to check, they found that there were traces of people living in these houses and fishing boats, and these traces were still very fresh. It was obvious that the fishermen living here had already panicked when they discovered this large group of people coming over. avoided.

"Gather the belongings of these fishermen together, and send people to look for them. After finding them, give them enough compensation, don't be rough, and be kind." Jiang Chuan instructed Bai Mu.

Bai Mu led a group of personal guards to go.

Turning his head, Jiang Chuan asked the engineering battalion school Wei Moban who was following him: "How long will it take you to build a pier that meets the requirements of the king?"

Moban had already looked at the terrain of the pier just now, and he said with confidence: "It can be completed in three days at most, and it is guaranteed to have three docks as required by the Lord, two docks, one for people to board and disembark, and one for cargo loading and unloading. As well as supporting facilities including warehouses on the shore, dormitories for naval personnel, kitchens, toilets and lights.”

Jiang Chuan nodded: "Okay, I need you to turn this harbor into a military port as quickly as possible, such as various observation and defense facilities, such as lighthouses, sentry towers, and forts. Of course, you can put these in the back , but the three docks and two piers must be completed as soon as possible, so as not to delay my plan."

After pondering, Mo Ban said: "I will draw a design drawing here, please have a look at it. I will guarantee that I will not miss the important event of the lord."

Jiang Chuan nodded and asked him to prepare quickly.

After Murban was surveying the harbor and carrying out planning and design, five thousand officers and soldiers of the engineering battalion began to clean up the original buildings on the pier.

The guard battalion is guarding the periphery, and any irrelevant personnel are strictly prohibited from approaching.

Bai Mu's people quickly found several boatmen hiding in a small forest not far from the pier.

Seeing a group of officers and soldiers surrounded him, these people were trembling with fright, clustered together, and looked at Bai Mu who was walking over with timid and pleading eyes.

"You don't have to be afraid. I am Bai Mu, the captain of the guard camp under the command of King Qin. Your pier has been confiscated by King Qin, so you have to leave here."

According to Jiang Chuan's instructions, Bai Mu spoke as kindly as possible, but in such a big battle, and he was a general who killed countless people, the evil spirit on his body could not be easily offset.

These boatmen here are struggling to make a living by fishing, so how do they know about His Royal Highness Qin Wang.It's just that they understood the second half of the sentence, that is, their home was about to disappear, and all of them had expressions of pain and reluctance on their faces.

But looking at the indifferent officers and soldiers in front of them, no matter how much resentment they had in their hearts, they didn't dare to say anything. They could only stare at Bai Mu and the guards behind him nervously and fearfully, not daring to say a word.

Bai Mu was speechless, so he had to order someone to bring over the prepared silver and said: "His Royal Highness King Qin will not let you suffer losses in vain. There are several families here, and His Royal Highness King Qin will give you 100 taels of silver as compensation for each family. The money It should be enough for you to live for a long time."

Looking at the pile of white money in front of them, these people straightened their eyes, staring at the money closely, and some even couldn't help swallowing their saliva.

Where in their life have they seen so much silver at once, it usually takes many years to save a few taels of silver.

Their shabby belongings are probably not picked up even if they are rags, and the shabby fishing boats are similar, with patches everywhere.So the 100 taels of silver for each family is almost equivalent to taking it for nothing.

Looking at the big white silver ingots in front of them, these people finally developed a good impression of His Highness King Qin who had never heard of it before.It turns out that there are such good people in the world, I really didn't expect it!

"Master Jun, we have five families here." A dark and old man swallowed his saliva and summoned up his courage to speak.

"Okay, then you five families, only one family has 100 taels of silver, the head of the family can come and get it." Bai Mu said.

Those people's eyes were full of joy when they heard this, and they all turned their eyes to the men of each family, waiting for him to get the money.

"What are you going to do when you occupy our pier?" Suddenly an unexpected voice came out.

Bai Mu was taken aback for a moment, but when he took a closer look, it was a young man among the fishermen who was watching him and talking.

This young man has handsome features, although there are several patches on his clothes, but they are washed clean, his hair is tied up on the top of his head with a strip of cloth, and a pair of black shiny eyes look at Bai Mu without fear.

Bai Mu looked at the young man and didn't speak for a while, because the young man in front of him gave him a very familiar feeling.But reason told him that he had obviously never seen this young man.

"Jiang Liu'er, don't talk nonsense, don't annoy these military masters, and we will lose our money." An old woman hurriedly stood up from the crowd and pulled the boy into the crowd.

"Mother, don't be afraid. I don't think they are bad people. There are no bad people in this world who give money to us poor people." The boy named Jiang Liu'er comforted the woman.

The woman looked anxiously, looked at Bai Mu, then at Jiang Liu'er, and finally knelt down in front of Bai Mu with a plop and cried, "Master, our Jiang Liu'er is young and ignorant, If you offend the military master, you must have a lot of adults, don't be as knowledgeable as him. Jiang Liuer, come and apologize to the military master!"

Seeing that Bai Mu didn't speak, the woman thought that Bai Mu was angry, so she was so frightened that she hurriedly pulled the young man to kowtow to Bai Mu.

A personal guard behind Bai Mu suddenly came up to Bai Mu's ear and said something, Bai Mu trembled when he heard the words, and hurriedly looked at the boy again, his expression suddenly became strange.

But Jiang Liu'er didn't want to kneel, but raised her head and said loudly: "Mother, my brother told me before that a man has gold under his knees, so he can't just kneel down casually."

Hearing this sentence, Bai Mu's face became even weirder.

When the woman heard Jiang Liu'er talking like this, she became even more anxious and frightened, and kept pulling on his sleeve: "Little boy, stop talking nonsense!"

The dark old man who was the first to speak just now saw Bai Mu's strange face, he was silent, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said with a frightened expression: "Mr. Blame Jiang Liuer, he is too young and ignorant, we kowtow to you!"

As he said that, he was about to kowtow down.

Bai Mu came to his senses at this time, stepped forward to support the man and said: "Please, old man, I don't mean to blame this little brother. I just want to ask you a few words."

When the man and the woman heard that Bai Mu said they didn't blame him, they breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Master Jun, please, the little old man will not dare to hide it from Master Jun if he knows."

"Okay, I want to ask the old man, what is your surname? This little brother is called Jiang Liu'er. Is he your own son? How many sons do you have?" Bai Mu asked in one breath.

 The third one arrives.A certain big brother's trick is online, who should know something.
