Du Xing narrowed his eyes and looked down at Lin Jinyan, who was not even taller than his waist.
The young fleshy face looked out of the house with a smile. The tone of what he said just now was calm and gentle, as if he was just saying that the food was enough.
Du Xing called Bai Zhi to guard the door, invited Lin Jinyan into the room, closed the door, and whispered seriously:
"Miss, do you know how much trouble it will cause to the general if word of what you just said spread?"
Lin Jinyan looked directly into Du Xing's eyes with a slight smile.
"Will this word get out?"
Du Xing was speechless for a moment before speaking. Thinking that Lin Jinyan was young and didn't know the seriousness of the matter, he urged anxiously:
"Miss, we have taken in a total of nearly three hundred refugees. Excluding the old, weak, women and children, there are nearly a hundred young and strong men. You want me to train according to the requirements of the Dingbei Army, that is, a guard that exceeds the specifications. This is the palace and There are only fifty soldiers in the General's Mansion, so once someone informs the Emperor, the General will not be able to explain."
Lin Jinyan: "You heard it just now. It's because there are thieves stealing food, so I asked them to learn some kung fu from you. They can protect Zhuangzi while also protecting themselves. I just want to train Zhuangzi some guards who know how to fist and kick. Not all the guards are trained for the Gu Lin family, how could it exceed the specifications?"
Du Xing said anxiously: "But you asked me to train them according to the requirements in the military camp. Why do ordinary nursing homes need such high skills?"
Lin Jinyan: "Who would think that my men are good at martial arts? Besides, I don't have any thugs in my shop or in the village. In order to prevent someone from making trouble, I have to find some trustworthy people to watch over me. I let you train their skills, which is more important. What is important is that I need them to be loyal to me, just like the Dingbei Army is loyal to the Gu family."
Du Xing disagreed: "But we don't need so many people..."
Lin Jinyan calculated seriously: "Why can't we use it? There are two villages, ten shops, and my house. You also know that we met thieves last time when we went out of the city. There are only a dozen or so people in the Lin family's nursing home. You are good at boxing and kicking. Most of them were injured last time and a few of them are still recovering from their injuries. This is the time when we are short of manpower."
Du Xing thought about it carefully and felt that what Lin Jinyan said made sense, but he was afraid of causing trouble to the Gu family. When he was thinking about it, Lin Jinyan saw Du Xing wavering and continued:
"What's more, the city guards who sent me here also heard what I said. They will report it to General Jin Wei. General Jin Wei has always been loyal to the emperor. General Jin Wei knows that the emperor will definitely know. If the emperor stops him then, You can't even if you want to. If the emperor didn't stop it, then he must have acquiesced, so what are you afraid of?"
Du Xing was completely convinced by Lin Jinyan. The matter was clear, and he was not afraid of other people's opinions, so he agreed immediately.
Lin Jinyan told Du Xing: Be careful in the way you train people, and don't let others know that you are from a military camp.
As she was leaving, she said again: Take good care of the refugees, and she will come again before the Chinese New Year to give some things.
The refugees gathered around Lin Jinyan, thanked her, and put Lin Jinyan on the carriage.
When they arrived at the city gate, Lin Jinyan stepped out of the carriage and saluted Jin Wei to thank him.
With tears in her eyes, she talked about how pitiful the refugees were and how they could not keep crowding in the village. She wanted to find a house to house the women and children after the New Year, and asked Jin Wei if he knew where there was a house. She looked like a kind-hearted but ignorant rich lady.
Jin Wei had always had a good impression of the Gu Lin family's disaster relief efforts, but seeing Lin Jinyan's appearance, he softened his tone and promised to help.
