I’m The King

Early in the morning of the second day of the military camp, Lu Hong and Gaoyuan set foot on the road to the county town. Gaoyuan looked a little listless. So they squatted on Ye Jing'er's window sill. The two of them held hands through the window with a small amount of thought. They talked a lot of love for the whole night. Gao Yuan did not rush to Ye Jing'er's boudoir. Now, it's too unsightly. I haven't had a good rest for several nights, and I rode on a horse in the snow and went forward, constantly dozing off, my head hitting, It looks extremely ridiculous.

There were a lot of people in their group. Not only did they accompany dozens of captured Donghu war horses, but also more than a dozen boxes, containing the heads of a dozen Donghu people. Apart from these, the main ones were Lu Hong and Wu Kai giving them to the prefect. Zhang Shouyue prepared a large number of New Year gifts, not only Fufeng local specialties, but also dozens of the best wines personally supervised by Wu Kai. Then there are silver coins.

Of course, the gift to the prefect is not copper coins. As the weather gets colder and colder, Wu Kai's wine is getting better and better. Calculated, for every share of shares in the past three months, there are three thousand pennies, Wu Kai himself He won another thousand of filial piety, and Lu Hong honored a thousand of filial piety. If he entered the prefecture and dragged out a sack of copper coins, it would be too eye-catching. Wu Kai would have replaced all of these five thousand coins. An ingot of gold ingots, contained in a wooden box, was now carried on the back of Yan Haibo who was accompanying him.

Gao Yuan took ten guards, Yan Haibo and the infantry were among them, Lu Hong also took a few people, and a group of dozens of people set off for Liaoxi County in a mighty manner. Regarding that they were about to see Zhang Shouyue, Gao Yuan was still quite excited. Zhang Shouyue was a miraculous figure in Dayan. In this place where a great nobleman controlled almost all the political affairs, he was a commoner. More than ten years ago, he started as a small soldier. Fighting to the prefect of a county and guarding the position of one side is a legend in itself.

Although because of his birth, he was never accepted by the dignitaries of Dayan, and he was unwilling to simply seal Zhang Shouyue's private domain as a fief, but this did not prevent Zhang Shouyue from becoming Dayan. An important piece on the political map.

The actions of Dayan dignitaries also made Zhang Shouyue very annoyed.Although he didn't care about these, he had to consider it for future generations.His generation, even without this territory, could steadily control him. Liaoxi County is in his hands, but after a hundred years, if his descendants do not have an outstanding person, how can they hold this place and cannot give him a reward, the Zhang family will not be able to enter the ranks of the great nobles. Once they die, the court will To get back this land is justified.

As Zhang Shouyue got older for a year, this anxiety increased day by day. In addition to increasing his activities in Jicheng, using money to open the way to persuade those powerful and powerful, he also kept strengthening army building. After Yitu died, the people of Dayan who were coveting the Liaoxi County region constrained their actions because of such a powerful army.

　　 Of course, it is best to give him the Zhang family directly, so that it can be done once and for all. Therefore, Zhang Shouyue needs a lot of money.

Walking on the road to Liaoxi County, the first feeling of Gaoyuan is that the traffic is too bad. On the road, the snow is stepped into mud, and the team can walk fifty miles every day, even if it is a good result. In the dozens of bullock carts, the wheels will get stuck in the mud from time to time, making it difficult to move an inch. Everyone has to roll up their sleeves and step on the muddy road to push the car forward. Except for Lu Hong, even Gaoyuan sometimes has to join in. In this rank, after one day, the whole person has completely become a mud monkey, so tired that he can't even speak.

If there is a battle ahead and reinforcements are transferred from Liaoxi County, if you encounter such a road situation, I am afraid that a major event will be broken. Gao Yuan walks all the way and shakes his head, and moves like this, I am afraid that I will wait for the reinforcements to arrive. , The previous fight was over long ago. But this problem is not something that Gao Yuan can solve. Gao Yuan also knows that with the productivity of this era, it is just like this. What he can do is to adapt to him, and don't hope to solve him at all.

　　 However, the more you go inward, the richer you get along the way.This can be seen from the houses where the people live and the crowds.

From Fufeng to Liaoxi City, there are two counties, Yaoqi County and Lingao County. The closer you are to Liaoxi City, the richer you are. Compared with Fufeng people, the people in these places are often plundered by Donghu people. But it is so happy.

"Gao Yuan, you can see it, now our business can only be sold in Fufeng County, and we have such a large profit. If we can sell to these places, how much profit should we have in that year?" Lu Hong sighed Dao, when he left, Wu Kai had already counted his dividends for this year. Lu Hong got 1,500 guans of dividends. After paying tribute to Zhang Shou about 1,000 guans, there was still a balance of five hundred guans left. This is still three months. In the next year, even if you don’t help the wind and maintain this income, there will be 6,000 dividends. Once Zhang Shouyue’s support is obtained, it will be fully spread across the entire Liaoxi County, Lu Hong will simply I dare not imagine what a huge number that would be. With this money, it is really not a problem to raise an elite army. What he said has a great touch to him.Why can the prefecture occupy Liaoxi County for decades and not fall? Isn't it because he has a team of three thousand elite county soldiers? If he has a thousand people, then Fufeng County is also himself. of.

Lu Hong is not worried about Wu Kai arguing with himself. Wu Kai is more like a businessman. He wants to make money, and he is tied to a rope with him now, and he can't jump even if he runs. He and the two of them work together, so they can use Fufeng as their own back garden, and with this force, their son will be able to go wider in the future. Lu Chao is the disciple of Li Ru and Li, and Li. Peach and plum are all over the world, and there are many powerful people among the disciples.If it works well, maybe the future of his son Lu Chao will go wider than that of the prefect.

　　 Every time he thinks of this, Lu Hong is so excited that he can't sleep.

It is necessary to hold Gao Yuan tightly in his hands. These days, the hundred-man team under Gao Yuan has given him a great shock. Gao Yuan has only taken over this army for more than two months, and then has a bad army. He has led to such a strong soldier today. If he is given a year or even a few years, then how strong should the army he has trained?

　　 Lu Hong is an expert.From the words and deeds of the hundred-person team from Gaoyuan, he keenly perceives that taking this hundred-person team to the prefect of Zhang prefecture is definitely second to none.

Although Gao Yuan and himself are not father and son, they have always cared for Gao Yuan, and Gao Yuan is extremely dependent on him. This kind of family relationship makes Lu Hong full of confidence in Gao Yuan, and now there are business things tied together. The relationship between the two is even stronger.

Taking a look at Gao Yuan, Lu Hong laughed happily. Sending Gao Yuan to the army was the most correct thing he did. This child is not young anymore, since he likes the daughter of the Ye family Ye Jing'er, after returning, she decided on her own and decided this matter. She didn't believe that the lady of the Ye family dared to squeak, even if they had problems with their origins, what would they be afraid of? Just like Gao Yuan said, as long as she has Strength, I'm afraid of a ball, just like the current Zhang Taishou, even if Zhang Taishou is now taking a daughter of a prisoner as his wife, the court will pretend to be deaf and dumb, and just don't know. Otherwise, the voice will open, and there will be no on both sides. good looking.

After coming back, are you considering giving Zheng Xiaoyang's team to Gao Yuan for training? Lu Hong calculated along the way, this matter is a bit difficult to handle, so you have to plan carefully, whether it is Zheng Xiaoyang or Shao who is now stationed at Juliguan. Gangs are old people who have followed him for many years, and they have to save some face in the end.

　　 "Go far away!" Lu Hong called back.

　　 "Uncle!" Gao Yuan rode a horse to catch up. "What's the matter?"

　　 "You really like that Ye Jing'er, I look thin and like a painting, what is it that you like?" Lu Hong asked.

Gao Yuan didn't expect that Lu Hong suddenly mentioned such a problem. After thinking for a long time, he said: "Uncle, I think Jing'er has the temperament that ordinary women don't have. It is very fascinating. Uncle, this matter, I really say no. Clearly, I like her anyway, but she won't marry!"

　　 "Is she not married to you?" Lu Hong asked jokingly.

　　 Gao Yuan nodded surely.

　　 Lu Hong laughed, "You dare to love you for a lifetime! Even my uncle keeps it secret, you are so bold."

　　 Gao Yuan blushed and said: "No, uncle, Ye's also told me that when Jing'er turns sixteen, he will marry Jing'er to me."

　　 Lu Hong’s face changed,’ Ye’s family has told you about this, I don’t know yet, Gao Yuan, you are so sad for me."

"No, uncle, I just wanted to tell you, but haven't I been busy during this time? I've been so busy that I have forgotten about it. Otherwise, how dare I not tell my uncle. Gaoyuan has no parents anymore. It's like my father. In this matter, my uncle has to make up my mind for me in the end." Gao Yuan explained quickly.

Hearing Gao Yuan’s words, Lu Hong’s face showed a smile, “It’s almost the same. Now that you have made up your mind, this time I will go back from the county town. The marriage is set, next year you will be stationed in Curieguan for a year, and when you come back, you will be married. What do you think?"

　　 "Everything depends on my uncle!" Gao Yuan was overjoyed.

　　 "That's it!" Lu Hong nodded and applauded.

　　 "Lord County Lieutenant, Cao Bingcao, I saw the county town!" Yan Haibo's voice suddenly rang in his ears, and the two raised their heads, and the towering walls of Western Liaoning were clearly visible on the ground line in the distance.
