Zuo Mengeng presented the approved troop quota to Zhang Jimeng. The military commander only took one look at it and felt his head hurt.
Young people are so bold, and Mao Ni can be so scary.
"I have only approved three rounds here and recorded them on record. I will not recognize the rest."
Zuo Mengeng chuckled and didn't care.
"My nephew knows."
Of course this cannot be recorded, otherwise the court will definitely investigate it.
Zhang Jimeng is still worried.
"There are too many people in the city and your back camp will be moved outside the city."
The other camps were all under-represented, and suddenly a camp of more than 3,000 people appeared, which was impossible to hide in the city.
When everyone is on empty wages, if you are the only one who is full of people, you are a different kind.
Hearing what Zhang Jimeng said, Zuo Mengeng really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This reminded him that a certain latent member of our party was suspected by the enemy. What was the reason for the suspicion?
Everyone else is greedy, but he is incorruptible.
In the world of bastards, what you do right is wrong.
But that was the situation, and Zuo Mengeng also knew that his back camp was indeed not suitable for camping in the city.
But if we go outside the city, where is the best place?
A place suddenly occurred to him.
After bidding farewell to Zhang Jimeng, he went to find Qu Shishu again.
"In the Ming Dynasty, my nephew remembers that after the guarding eunuch Feng Lun was convicted, all his family property was confiscated by the court. The mansion, shops, and fields of Feng Yuanwai were all owned by the local government. I wonder if Feng Yuanwai's Zhuangzi... …”
Qu Shichen said "Yeah", feeling quite sorry.
"The good nephew came late, and the Zhuangzi outside Yuan Feng was bought by the Zhang family."
Zuo Mengeng's head was covered with black lines.
These wealthy families started too quickly.
But Zhuangzi, who is outside Yuan Feng, is bound to win.
Just because Feng Yuanwai's Zhuangzi is next to his own, and it's big enough.
With more than a thousand acres of land, plus the larger surrounding wasteland, there are a lot of things that can be done in it.
Zuo Mengeng rushed to Zhang's house again to meet Zhang Zonghuan.
Zhang Zhenxiu and Zhang Zongmeng have both gone to take office, and Zhang Zonghuan is in charge of the Zhang family.
Zhang Haogu was actually at home. Hearing that he was coming, he also ran over.
"Uncle, my nephew learned from the Qu Ming Mansion that the land outside Yuan Feng is now under the name of the Zhang family. To be honest with my uncle, my nephew has some use for that land. I wonder if my uncle can transfer it?"
Zhang Zonghuan didn't expect this to happen and couldn't help but hesitate.
"Aren't those fields used for farming?"
He knew the situation of the Zuo family, there were not many people at all. Even if we have such a large field, we can’t afford it.
Zuo Mengeng revealed a little bit.
"A few days ago, Zhang Bingxian ordered that the rear camp under my nephew's command be moved outside the city. However, it is difficult to choose a station, which gives my nephew a headache. After thinking about it, the Zhuangzi vacated by Yuan Feng is not a good place."
Zhang Haogu said "Oh!"
"Isn't that Zhang Bingxian very kind to you? Why do you let you go outside the city to enjoy the cold wind?"
Zhang Zonghuan was much smarter, and he knew there was something fishy as soon as he heard it.
Before Zhang Zhenxiu left, he specifically told him to take care of Zuo Mengeng more.
Therefore, Zhang Zonghuan knew some situations.
He thought deeply and made a decision quickly.
"In this case, the land will be given to my nephew."
Zuo Mengeng was overjoyed, but he didn't expect Zhang Zonghuan to be so happy.
The Chinese people’s affection for the land is deep-rooted. Zhang Zonghuan gave up happily, which was a great favor.
He hurriedly said: "My uncle is very righteous, and my nephew is very grateful. Don't worry, my nephew will definitely compensate you fully."
Zhang Zonghuan smiled and waved his hands repeatedly.
"You kid, what are you doing outside? It's just a piece of land, if you want to use it, your uncle will give it to you. If you really want to count, you can't buy that land without ten thousand taels of silver, and you don't have that much wealth, right?"
The performance was very generous, but the price of the land was also revealed in the words.
Zuo Mengeng knew that Zhang Zonghuan still had conditions.
"My nephew is foolish, but he will follow his uncle's orders."
Smart people save trouble by talking.
Zhang Zonghuan pointed at Zhang Haogu and his tone was quite sincere.
"I have been diligent all my life, and I think I have lived this life in vain. Now I am the only one who is worried."
Poor parents in the world, Zhang Zonghuan is no exception.
He held Zuo Mengeng's hand and stared into Zuo Mengeng's eyes.
"My good nephew is doing a big business now, and he is surrounded by talented people. This boy is lazy and has no academic skills. I don't expect him to get ahead. I hope my good nephew will take care of him more in the future, so I can feel at ease."
It's true that the Zhang family is a wealthy family, but there are also sects within a wealthy family.
The three heroes of the Zhang family, Zhang Zhenxiu and Zhang Zongmeng, were working as officials, and Zhang Zonghuan was doing business.
At present, it seems that the three-bedroom apartment is relatively balanced.
But Zhang Zonghuan knew that Zhang Haogu was far behind compared to the other two younger generations.
Not surprisingly, Zhang Haogu will definitely lose all the family property he left behind a hundred years later.
At this time, a trustworthy and reliable person is needed to help Zhang Haogu and help him support his family business.
Zhang Zonghuan saw everything Zuo Mengeng did. Moreover, this son has the big picture in mind and is obviously not interested in the Zhang family's foundation. He is a person worthy of trust.
Especially after Zuo Mengeng became President Qian, Zhang Zonghuan became more clear about his thoughts.
Even if Zuo Mengeng doesn't come to visit him, he will find time to have a relationship with Zuo Mengeng.
I just didn't expect that Zuo Menggeng's goal would be the land left by Feng Yuanwai.
Although those lands are valuable, they obviously cannot be compared with future generations.
Zhang Zonghuan thought about it briefly and decided to be a good person and give it to Zuo Mengeng directly.
Now that he knew his purpose, Zuo Mengeng couldn't help but sympathize with this man.
"Uncle, what he said is obvious. Brother Gu and I are not brothers, but we are better than brothers. For so many years, without the care of brother Gu, my nephew has had a hard time. From now on, we...will be brothers for the rest of our lives."
His eyes were clear and sincere, and his words were solemn, which made Zhang Zonghuan quite pleased.
Only Zhang Haogu couldn't see the atmosphere and was still talking shamelessly.
"Dad, don't worry. As long as I'm here, Second Zuo will have a bright future. Not to mention a mere thousand-year-old general, Second Zuo, do you want to be a general? Tomorrow, brother will go to the capital to give you some money, and bring that Liu Yuanqing to the capital. Drive away.”
Zhang Zonghuan couldn't take a breath and was prone to vomiting blood.
"The traitor..."
Zuo Mengeng was also afraid of this brother, so he quickly pulled him out of the house, summoned Huang Zongxi and others, and rushed to Zhuangzi to check the situation.
"How about using this place as a military camp?"
Pointing at the vast land in front of him, Zuo Mengeng was also high-spirited.
From now on, this is his territory. Here, his will will be carried out unconditionally.
Zhou You looked and nodded.
"Yes, yes, the place is big enough, and it's relatively remote. There's only one way in and out, so you don't have to worry about being spied on. And it's close to a water source, so garrisoning the place won't be a problem."
Zuo Mengeng chuckled and revealed a little more.
"You may not know yet, but I have already discussed with Zhang Bingxian, and Zhang Bingxian proposed to set up an additional weapons depot in Linqing. This weapons depot is naturally prepared for our rear camp. The weapons depot will also be placed at that time Here, whatever weapons we need, we can make them ourselves."
"real?"
Everyone was overjoyed and geared up, eager to have a big fight right away.
With an army in hand and the ability to make weapons of your own, you don't have to worry about getting stuck, and there will be a lot of room for maneuver in the future.
Everyone entered Zhuangzi.
There is nothing here now, it is empty and ghostly.
When the original banker was raided outside Feng Yuanwai, he had already been taken away by the government. Obviously, I won't be coming back in the future.
This is the best, Zuo Mengeng can do whatever he wants.
Several black spots in the distance approached, and soon they came closer. It turned out to be Lao Qintou and others.
"Young Master is here at Zhuangzi, why don't you go in and squeeze me? Did you come here?"
Zuo Mengeng pulled him, pointed at the land under his feet, and laughed.
"You don't know this, right? From now on, this place belongs to us."
Lao Qin shivered for the first time and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
"Master, you...you mean...this land also belongs to our house?"
Zuo Mengeng nodded heavily.
"That's right. From now on, this is my young master's garrison camp. You are all next to the military camp, but no blind thief dares to harass the village."
He spoke happily, but Lao Qintou's eyes were wandering around, looking greedily at the fertile land under his feet.
"Master, I think there is still time to discuss this matter."
