Seeing this news, Chang Wei didn't have any other thoughts. There was only shock and awe in his mind.
If I remember correctly, Mr. Zhao only brought three hundred with him on his trip north this time.
How long has it been? There are already nearly a thousand people who control strings, and they have also won over thousands of herdsmen and countless cattle and sheep.
Chang Wei didn't know much about the situation in the grassland, but even if these nearly a thousand capable warriors were placed in Guanzhong, they would still be an extremely impressive armed force.
In some relatively stable years, a thousand-knife bandit could be called a giant bandit and could dominate an area.
As for Zhao Ming's first letter, Chang Wei also read it.
What was described in the telegram at that time was terrible. Not only was he attacked by thieves and suffered heavy losses, but he was also in short supply of food and grass. He even asked his family to send a sum of money as soon as possible.
This is why Zhao Ming didn't write about the injury. After all, he reported good news rather than bad news. He wrote about part of the dilemma just to have a reasonable excuse when asking for money.
After all, Zhao Ming has lived two lifetimes, and this is the first time he has asked his family for money.
But no matter what, Chang Wei felt that Master Zhao was still the same Master Zhao.
The shadow that gradually faded in his mind after Master Zhao left for two months became clear again.
But seeing that Feng Yunyun, who had already read the letter several times, reluctantly put the letter into his sleeve.
As Zhao Ming went north to Chahar, Feng Yunyun's dressing style also changed drastically.
Feng Yunyun, who originally loved cheongsam, now often wears Manchu robes.
It is not the kind of Manchu robes from the middle of the previous dynasty, but a style that has been improved in modern times. Of course, it is not the so-called banner dress, but the dress of the wives of wealthy families in the previous dynasties.
Some styles that often appeared in later Republic of China-themed house-fighting TV series looked a bit old-fashioned when worn on her body, but when worn on Feng Yunyun, she felt fresh and lively.
A little less enchanting and seductive, but a little more dignified and majestic.
With wide sleeves and a long hem, the skirt can cover her ankles, just enough to cover Feng Yunyun's big feet.
Well, Feng Yunyun's feet are naturally not suitable for a landowner woman of this era.
Therefore, when Feng Yunyun wore cheongsam before, she wore small leather heels. Now I have changed to embroidered cloth shoes.
This outfit is actually very against the rules. You should know that women from landlord families usually wear flowerpot-soled shoes.
It's just that Feng Yunyun's feet are big, so she really can't wear these flowerpot-soled shoes.
In fact, the first time he was intimate with Feng Yunyun, Zhao Ming was also a little surprised when he held Feng Yunyun's feet.
I thought that these days women from wealthy families in the countryside would all have the deformed three-inch golden lotus, but it turned out to be a big surprise.
He didn't understand until Feng Yunyun talked about it.
It turns out that Feng Yunyun was the adopted daughter adopted by Mr. Feng after his second and third sons were captured, his eldest son was killed by bandits, and his fourth son died in infancy.
Master Feng originally thought that he would never be able to have another male son in his life, so he raised Feng Yunyun as a son.
As a result, as he kept raising her, his newly married concubine unexpectedly gave birth to another child.
So Feng Yunyun was changed back to her original gender. Because this was quite difficult to explain, she was simply ranked behind Lao Wu.
But this also made Feng Yunyun's feet completely fixed, and she didn't even bother to worry about wearing shoes.
In fact, Feng Yunyun's feet are not big. According to Zhao Ming's estimation, they are only thirty-six yards. But it is indeed a big foot in this day and age.
"Changhuyuan! It just so happens that the supplies I prepared for my husband last time haven't been sent yet.
I will spread the news about my husband to everyone in the village and tell everyone that I am someone who wants to do great things.
Now the master must be in urgent need of a group of people. I need to call a hundred capable people to go north and let everyone who is willing to sign up.
If you are willing to go north, your family members will be able to receive an additional month's regular payment in the future. If you encounter an accident, your family members will also be able to receive a large additional amount of pension. "
Feng Yunyun had adjusted her mentality and spoke calmly.
These words seemed to be a trip to the north, but Chang Wei heard it. Madam wanted to take the opportunity to promote and consolidate Master Zhao's prestige in Zhuangzi.
At the same time, it also makes those villains who gossip in private pay attention to their words and deeds in the future.
You must know that with the death of Mr. Feng, Zhao Ming went north again, and Feng Yunyun, a woman, took care of such a large business. Over time, gossip was inevitable.
——
After reading the letter, Zhao Ming let out a sigh of relief. He did not expect that his family would develop so well now.
"I owe Lao Liu a favor!" Zhao Ming sighed in his heart.
"Do you have anything else?"
Seeing the brother coming back again, Zhao Ming couldn't help but be suspicious.
"Master Zhao! I forgot that there is another letter!"
The young man scratched his head and took out another letter from his arms.
After receiving the letter, Zhao Ming was a little curious. When he opened it, he was astonished.
This letter was actually given to him by Song Zhe! !
Zhao Ming couldn't help but look at the letter carefully. He wondered if there was anything like an official seal on it.
"Is that all this letter? Nothing else?" Zhao Ming asked the young man.
"No... No, Mr. Zhao, this is also a telegram. I was still wondering at the time. The telegraph office said there was another letter, so I took it back together." The young man was a little uneasy, for fear of making a mistake. thing.
"It's okay, you go down first."
Zhao Ming waved his hand and then looked at the envelope again.
If the word "Song" hadn't been left at the end, Zhao Ming wouldn't be sure it was his old man.
There is only one sentence above. In late August, a large number of Guanzhong bandits escaped from near Fengxiang. They were suspected of going north and might arrive in Chahar to cause trouble. If they were not detained, they would be returned later!
Looking at these words, Zhao Ming showed a smile.
"Old Song, if you help me, I'll help you with this! You won't leave any clues!"
"Mr. Zhao, it seems that the incident at home should be a happy event?"
Zhang He, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but smile when he saw this. Zhao Ming smiled twice after reading two letters in a row.
"Haha! Everyone is very busy. Let me tell the brothers to continue to work hard. In addition to daily training, there is another project to expand the camp."
Hearing this, Zhang He was suspicious.
"Sir Zhao, our camp is enough now. If we continue to expand it and let the brothers live separately, it will not be good in this winter."
"Haha, there will be a lot of people coming by then, and I'm afraid I won't be able to fit in because the place is small!"
Zhao Ming was in a particularly happy mood. This old Song really gave him a big gift.
However, this good mood did not last long. The next day, a piece of bad news came back from the north.
"sure?"
"Master Zhao, it's true. We found that the number of camps on the border began to increase. There were only two or three at the beginning, but now it has gradually increased to more than ten.
And we also saw swarms of oxcarts pulling goods to stock up nearby, and this was just the number of camps added from last night to today.
Maybe in another day, this number will double! "
