Sure enough, since Feng Delin came to Qingfeng Village, the entire village has shown a prosperous scene.
His greatest characteristic is that he is good at managing money. Money is blood. As long as you have money, it is easy to recruit soldiers and horses. In these days and months, there are many people who have no food to eat. As long as the salary can be paid in time on a monthly basis, there will be many people who will sign up to join.
Under Feng Delin's painstaking management, in less than a year, he led the brothers in the village to do several beautiful transactions and made a lot of money. Qingfeng Village also expanded from the previous few hundred people. To a thousand people.
On this day, Du Qingfeng, the leader of Dazhai, held a meeting for everyone. He said with a smile on his face: "Brothers, what do you think? I will say that my benefactor is a rare talent. You see, since my benefactor came to the mountain, he has worked hard and worked hard without complaining. It’s more than doubled the size of our business.”
"As the leader of the village said." Everyone said.
"Master Dazhai, you've given me the award. It's mainly because of your good leadership and the joint efforts of the brothers that we have achieved some results," Feng Delin Qian said, "Why do these things matter?"
"Brothers, have you heard that my benefactor is not only talented, but also very humble. It is clearly his achievements, but he pushed them to me and everyone else," Du Qingfeng said with a smile, "Recently, according to what we have learned, Judging from the intelligence we have, a small group of Mongolian bandits will pass through our jurisdiction. These people are our old enemies, and the leader is the Chuangdilong. They took advantage of them last time, and I was seriously injured. If not My benefactor saved me, and I have been dead for a long time. As the saying goes, it is not a gentleman not to retaliate. Since they have come to my door, I decided to lead a group of troops to ambush them. If everything goes well, I can kill them. They were wiped out in one fell swoop.”
"Master Dazhai, I object," Feng Delin said immediately after hearing this: "These Mongolian bandits are basically composed of nomadic Mongolians and other ethnic minorities on the grasslands. They are used to living on the Mongolian prairie. He is good at riding and shooting, and is brave and good at fighting. In recent years, in order to implement the "New Deal", the Qing government has launched a large number of reclamation and immigration actions in Mongolia. To this end, the local feudal rulers, Mongolian princes and nobles, and Han landlords and warlords colluded to create large-scale settlements in Mongolia. The trading flag land has attracted a large number of immigrants, making it impossible for the local Mongolian herdsmen to live. Under this situation, Bai Ying Dalai and Zhelimu League Guo from the Suruk Banner of the Zhuosuotu League in Inner Mongolia Taoke Taohu of the Errosian Banner successively raised the flag to defend his pasture and land, and both of them were outstanding figures. They were famous giants known as the 'Mongolian horse thieves' and were really not easy to mess with. "
"My benefactor, you are worrying too much. You are trying to gain the ambition of others and destroy the prestige of our own family," Du Qingfeng said. "They are only a small group of bandits who came here this time, not all of them. How can we spit out the fat in our mouths?"
"These Mongolian bandits have always been cunning. Last time you were ambushed by them and almost lost your life. This time, we must not fall into their trap again." Feng Delin said.
"My dear benefactor, don't worry," Du Qingfeng thought for a moment, "How about this? To be on the safe side, I will lead two hundred brothers as the vanguard, and you will lead a large group of people as the back-up, in case of any unexpected events."
"No, no, no," Feng Delin quickly waved his hand and said, "I'll be the forward, and you can lead the troops to guide the rear."
"My dear benefactor, are you still fighting with me about this matter?" Du Qingfeng said firmly, "Don't worry, it's absolutely safe, it's settled."
So, early the next morning, Du Qingfeng took two hundred brothers and set off first. Feng Delin led a large group of people to keep a distance and followed behind.
However, what he didn't expect was that this small group of bandits was just a trick to lure the enemy. The large group of people had already laid an ambush. Du Qingfeng was eager for revenge and rushed into the enemy's formation first, only to be ambushed again.
By the time Feng Delin arrived with his troops, the two hundred or so leading troops had been almost wiped out. Du Qingfeng was shot several times and was seriously injured.
Everyone quickly rescued Du Qingfeng back to the village.
That night, Du Qingfeng was too seriously injured and lost too much blood. He was about to die. When he was dying, he was lying on the bed, holding Feng Delin's hand and said: "My dear friend, I regret not listening to your kind words and advice, so that I am like today." Defeat, I don’t regret dying, but I am sorry for my dead brothers.”
"Master Dazhai, victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. Don't blame yourself too much. It's important to take care of yourself." Feng Delin advised.
"I can't do it anymore," Du Qingfeng said, "Listen, everyone, after I die, the cottage will be entrusted to my benefactor, and my benefactor will be the owner of the cottage. Anyone who dares to disobey will follow the rules of the cottage."
"Yes! Only the leader of the village will obey his orders." Everyone agreed.
"Master Dazhai, you have to cheer up. You have never experienced any big storms. You are a vajra made of copper and an arhat made of iron. This injury is nothing to you." Feng Delin said.
"My dear friend, please stop comforting me. I know my own health. I will not be able to survive this time no matter what. I am lucky enough to get to know you and work together. It is truly a great pleasure in my life. It’s just that I haven’t completed my achievements yet, and I have to say goodbye to you and all the brothers halfway through.” Du Qingfeng spent a lot of effort and finally said, “I have enjoyed all blessings and experienced all things. After this, there is nothing to regret, but I can’t worry about these brothers.”
"Master Dazhai, please take care of yourself." Everyone said.
"Zhao Wenyuan!" Du Qingfeng shouted with great effort.
"Here, Chief of the Dazhai!" At this time, Zhao Wenyuan walked over from the side and knelt in front of Du Qingfeng's bed.
"I know that you are highly capable and loyal. After my death, my benefactor will be your master. You must protect him for me and treat him wholeheartedly no matter what the circumstances. Do you hear me?" Du Qingfeng? explain.
"I heard it, Dazhai Master, please rest assured. No matter when the time comes, I will remember Dazhai Master's words and protect him." Zhao Wenyuan also cried.
"Okay, with your words, I'll be relieved." After Du Qingfeng finished speaking, he tilted his head and died.
From then on, Qingfeng Village was owned by Feng Delin. Under his painstaking management, in just a few years, Qingfeng Village expanded from a small village with only a few hundred brothers to three to four thousand people, becoming one of the best in the area. Aozi, even the government would not dare to do anything to him easily.
Feng Delin also grew up from a lowly scholar and a scholar to a generation of tycoon who was decisive, cunning, secretive, and dominant.
