At night, there was another big banquet at Dengyun Mountain. Before the banquet started, Chen Xuan opened a big table, opened the roster, and called out the names one by one. For each person who came up, he distributed money according to the merit.
"Qi Daniu, this time I go to battle as the leader of the village, and I will be rewarded with ten guan. In addition, for opening the door, I will be rewarded with an additional five guan!" Chen Xuan first sang a few songs in a business place, and then as soon as he finished speaking, he changed to a sincere smile, "Haha, Qi Brother, the total reward is fifteen guan, please give it a little bit."
Qi Daniu, whose name was called, came forward with an expression of disbelief. When a large handful of copper coins was stuffed into his arms, he thought he was still in a dream. After all, this was his first trip up the mountain. The biggest sum of money I have received in years.
In the past, when Zou Yuan was the leader of the village, he made a living by robbing the caravans passing by the mountain, but how much profit could those caravans make? In addition, Zou Run is not a generous owner, so although he dared to fight and charge before, the most reward he ever received was only three guan. Even so, the copper coins he received were all of high quality or high quality. Poor iron money.
How is it like now? The coins in his arms were all shining with a warm yellow light. These were fine copper coins that were rich in copper. It would be great if I could encounter such a beautiful thing every three or two months in the future.
Qi Daniu kept wiping his tears and bowing to Chen Xuan.
This frightened Chen Xuan. He had read a few books and knew that kindness comes from the best. It was obviously taboo to accept such a gift in public. So he hurriedly walked across the table and helped Qi Daniu up, anxious and angry. "Brother Qi, what are you doing? Aren't you trying to harm me? This is all the kindness of the village master. If you want to be grateful, just go to the village master to salute. Don't offend me."
Qi Daniu just woke up from a dream, wiped his tears, and planned to kowtow in front of Zou Run, but Chen Xuan stopped him again.
"Brother Qi, my younger brother Qi Erniu is still ill in bed. His reward is a total of twenty-five guan. Can you help me collect it? Just sign and pledge it here. Oh, by the way, the village leader has ordered that all the rewards from now on will be taken." For my brother who was injured, the entire cost of medical treatment and recuperation will be covered by the copycat!"
Qi Daniu was the first, and soon there were the second, and the third, including the more than thirty people who had just fled to the mountain this time. Everyone had a share, and the heavy rewards were held in their arms, and everyone felt They are all warm and their eyes are full of tears.
This made Zou Run suffer a lot. At the banquet, he was surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside. Even Yang Lin and Deng Fei had a hard time squeezing in. Almost everyone was in tears, thinking Offer a glass of water and wine to express your inner gratitude.
It was hard to deny the warm hospitality and the public opinion. Surrounded by more than a hundred wine bowls raised high above his head, Zou Run finally fell down with a smile, drunk.
The sky is getting brighter, the mountain breeze blows away the misty fog in the mountains, the birds in the treetops begin to sing, and the lively noises outside are clearly transmitted into Zou Run's yard through the thin window paper.
It may be that time travel has brought some mysterious and inexplicable changes to this body. Zou Run is obviously recovering from a serious injury and was drunk last night. However, after just one night's rest, Zou Run no longer feels any discomfort and even feels Full of energy and spirit, he got up early today and was sitting in his yard, leisurely blowing the mountain breeze, waiting for someone.
The noise outside the window was from Zou Yuan, Yang Lin, Deng Fei and three others, greeting the more than thirty young men who had just come up the mountain to organize themselves into the team. This was also the strategy that Zou Run had agreed upon with everyone yesterday.
Before the banquet started last night, Zou Run called all the leaders to his small courtyard and explained the relationship behind Huang Zeli's death. After hearing this, Zou Yuan and the three of them knew that they would fight sooner or later, so they unanimously agreed to Zou Run's reorganization plan.
So before the official start of the banquet last night, Zou Run informed the whole village that he first promoted a group of brave and daring little bosses such as Qi Daniu and Wang Si, and then promoted more than 80 minions in the whole village who could carry swords into battle. Divided into eight teams, each team has a commander, who is served by the leader of the village.
The team with the best riding skills was selected and led by Deng Fei, the fiery-eyed Suani, to train in horse fighting and riding skills. Then two teams were selected, which were relatively tall, strong, and burly, and led by Zou Yuan, Delin Ryuu personally. This team served as sword and shield bearers wearing armor.
Although there are currently only five sets of fake armors in total, and there are only five horses that can be used as war horses, these can be solved later, but the training must be done in advance. It's a pity that there is not even a team of archers, and there is no one who is proficient in archery in the village, so Zou Run has no choice but to shamelessly lead them to practice first.
The remaining five teams were all organized into spearmen. Jinbaozi Yang Lin was responsible for teaching these five teams marksmanship and swordsmanship. At the same time, he also had to take on the important task of running the three hotels at the foot of the mountain and gathering information. After these teams have become somewhat famous, Zou Run will carefully select 20 or 30 people from them to serve as his personal soldiers.
There was a burst of chaotic footsteps outside the hospital, from far to near, and gradually became clearer. Zou Run retracted his thoughts, and the person he was waiting for arrived.
"Ma Bo, Zhao Da, Zhao Wu, have met the village leader!"
Looking at the three people who were uniformly dressed like hotel managers, Zou Run couldn't help but feel happy. A smile appeared on his face, "Haha, okay, since you have to look like a shop when you open a shop at the foot of the mountain, you have done a good job. The clothes are well-organized and have a certain taste."
After saying that, he helped the three people who saluted one by one, pushed them to sit down on the small stools, and got ready to get up and pour them tea.
Zhao Wu was a smart man and quickly took the teapot from Zou Run. While carefully filling the tea bowl with Zou Run, he replied: "I don't dare to praise the village master. The village master asked the young people to open a hotel. Naturally, the young men must do their best to do this job well, so that they can live up to the kindness and respect of the village master." As he spoke, he poured another bowl for Ma Bo and Zhao Da, and then they sat down on the stool. Half of my butt was down, the whole process was done lightly, and my expression was very natural.
Ma Bo and Zhao Da, who were poor at speaking, felt envious and resentful when they saw this, but they subconsciously followed the words and kept saying, "Me too, me too."
Zou Run couldn't help but smile when he saw this. It seemed that although Zhao Wu, Ma Bo and Zhao Da had changed their outfits, they still hadn't found the trick to being a hotel manager. How could they get information if they couldn't talk openly? But this matter cannot be rushed, so we can only take it one step at a time. If it doesn't work, just find someone to replace him and go back to the mountain.
"Okay, today I'm calling you back to the mountain. Firstly, I want to hear about the situation in your respective hotels. Secondly, I want to explain a few things to you. Let's stop chatting. Your heads are not counted in the cottage kitchen today. Let's hurry up and finish talking. , you can go back in time for lunch."
Facing Zou Run's obviously joking words, the three of them all laughed apologetically, and then looked at each other, but it was the eldest Ma Bo who answered first.
"Master, Shannan Hotel has been open for a few days. The stir-fried vegetables taught by Mr. Xie are selling very well. The merchants and pedestrians passing by can't stop applauding after eating. The braised vegetables are also sold out every day. I guess After some estimation, if this momentum continues, Shannan Hotel can make a profit of 30 guan per month!"
After Ma Bo finished speaking, Zhao Da and Zhao Wu also explained the progress one after another. Shandong and Shanxi hotels were also very different. They both relied on stir-fried vegetables and stewed vegetables to make a name for themselves. There were even colleagues who secretly came to steal their skills.
The profit of 30 yuan made Zou Run secretly nod. Although the amount of money was not large, it meant that the hotel could develop healthily while earning its own expenses. This meant that the "new deal" he proposed was If it is successful, I believe that over time, the profit amount will increase exponentially. Not only will it add a long-term income, but the intelligence work will also make significant progress.
Zou Run was naturally generous with his praises for his achievements at work, and even announced that he would be rewarded accordingly based on the profits at the end of the year. As soon as the incentive policy was announced, the enthusiasm of the three people burst out visibly. They almost swore in front of Zou Run that they would work hard and double their performance.
You said that after giving the sweet dates, you should hit him with a stick. Upon seeing this, Zou Run immediately poured cold water on him.
"Okay, I understand why you are waiting, but don't forget, I asked you to wait to open a hotel not just for the small profits of dozens of dollars, but also for you to become the number one brother in the copycat village. Eyes and ears! Exploring information and completing intelligence missions are what you are waiting for! This must always be kept in mind!"
Zou Run rarely kept a straight face, and scolded the three people who were getting carried away, so that they would remember it for a long time, and then solemnly issued three new tasks.
"There are three things you should do immediately after you come down from the mountain. The first one is to immediately send more personnel to the county seat of Huang County to keep an eye on the movements of the county government and see how the government reacts to Huang Zeli's death."
"The second thing is to immediately inquire about the whereabouts of Lin Chong, the head coach of the 800,000 Imperial Guards in Tokyo, after returning. For the first two things, once there is relevant information, report it to me as soon as possible."
"The third thing is that rumors spread secretly that Deng Yun Mountain is recruiting troops and sincerely invites heroes from all over the world to join us. Those who are willing to go up the mountain, regardless of gender, old or young, will be accepted, and resettlement allowance will be given to them depending on the situation. The settlement allowance will be doubled for those with special skills. !”
"These three important things are related to the survival of the village. You must do them carefully. If you do well, I will reward you heavily!"
The three Mabo people looked resolute and left their seats one after another, prostrated themselves on the ground, and said, "I am willing to devote my whole life to the village, and I am willing to die for the master of the village!"
