Chapter 63 The real plan

Weiss.

Wei Hao sat at the head of the hall, and below him sat several elders of the family. Standing behind them were all direct descendants of the Wei family.

Wei Gong came in from the door, with a slightly anxious expression on his face. He saluted Wei Hao respectfully and said, "Father, the second brother is not in Hao's Village. He said he went to the mountains to gather herbs, and he won't be back until noon."

Wei Hao frowned slightly, and was about to speak when an old man next to him said in a deep voice: "When is it, does he still have time to go to the mountains to collect medicine?"

When Wei Gong saw this person, he didn't dare to breathe.

On the contrary, Wei Hao frowned and looked at this person, and said coldly: "If you go to the mountains to collect herbs, you will go to the mountains to collect herbs. Even if the sky falls, so what, is it your turn to make irresponsible remarks?"

The old man froze for a moment, and wanted to refute a few words, but another old man beside him hurriedly tugged on his sleeve.

The old man glared at Wei Hao angrily, and sat back resentfully.

Seeing this, Wei Hao snorted coldly, looked at Wei Gong and said, "It's good that the news has been delivered, you go organize the manpower first, it's the time of the autumn harvest, don't let the thieves have any chance to take advantage of it, as for Cheng Over there, send someone to invite you again."

Wei Gong hurriedly bowed his hands and said yes, and then bowed his hands to the other clan elders, and hurriedly retreated.

After Wei Gong left, a clan elder on the left said: "Teng'er is not here, and we don't know if he has any other back-ups. For the present plan, I think it's important to keep the granaries in various places first. If there is a mess Come on, the food in our hands is the first to bear the brunt."

The irritable elder also said: "Yes, what the third brother said is reasonable. This year is not a good year. The grain production is not as good as in previous years. If there are soldiers and bandits robbing grain again, let alone the farmers in the village, we I'm going to starve to death."

The clan elder who pulled him next to him got up and said, "Brother, Cheng'er must have other backers, and we don't know how the situation in the court will change. Knowing that He Jin must die, he must also know what we should do next."

The other clan elders looked at each other and then looked at Wei Hao.

Wei Hao frowned, he didn't expect that his precious son actually predicted He Jin's end, when he heard the news in the morning, he was stunned for a cup of tea, even though he was mentally prepared before.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him now, Wei Hao was also one of the first and two elders. To be honest, he didn't know what Wei Cheng's specific arrangement was. He Jin died, and the eunuch was slaughtered by Yuan Shao's men. This world is already the world of the gentry.

But the gentry in this world is not limited to his Wei family.

Not to mention other counties, there are Wei, Wang, Xie, Pei, Cai, Cao, Sima and other families in Hedong.

If it was Cheng'er, or Zhongping, what would they do?
What should I do to keep the Wei family and at the same time develop and grow the family, or hide behind the scenes to seek happiness?
Just as Wei Hao frowned in thought, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door.

All the clan elders looked back, only to see a middle-aged man in his early thirties, with his eyes slightly squinted, and dressed in literati and Confucian shirts, walking in.

Seeing this person, the clan elders got up one after another.

"Zhongping!"

"Zhongping."

"It's Zhongping who's back."

That's right, the person who came was Wei Yan who was in Xuchang and was preparing to return.

Behind him, two young men followed closely. One of them had big jaws, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was holding a Han sword;

When they came to the door, Wei Min motioned for the two to wait at the door, and walked into the hall by himself.

"Brother, where's Cheng'er?" Wei Yan's first sentence when he entered the door was not a greeting, but a question about Wei Cheng's whereabouts.

Wei Hao looked at him in embarrassment, and after struggling for a long time, he said, "I went to the mountains to collect herbs."

Wei Min was startled for a moment, looked at the dissatisfied clan elders next to him, and suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, don't mess around in times of danger, and have the style of a general. He's in Luliang Mountain, right? I'll go find him."

Turn around and leave.

Seeing this, the clan elders rushed to stop him, but they didn't want to go to the door, the young man holding a short bow with ox horn directly blocked the door.

Wei Min turned his head to look at the crowd, Nian Xu said: "It's not messed up yet, what are you in a hurry for?"

After finishing speaking, he took out a stack of information tied with hemp rope from his arms, threw it to the leader of the clan, and said: "I have already spread the news, and the military officers of all parties will enter Beijing in a short time. I am optimistic about Sun Jian, the prefect of Changsha, but Cheng'er seems to have a different idea, I have to ask him why he met Dong Zhuo alone, you can wait for the news."

If you listen to this sentence at first, it may be a bit wrong, but after careful consideration, all the elders will understand it in seconds. Wei Yan planned to invest in Sun Jian at first, but it seems that Wei Cheng is more interested in Dong Zhuo.

They are from the noble family, and the soldiers and horses in their hands are not as good as those who lead troops to fight. If they want to continue the family's incense in the troubled times, it is an inevitable choice to choose one side to unite.

Wei Hao felt ashamed when he heard this, it turned out that not only Wei Min had thought of this, even Wei Cheng had made preparations in advance.

No wonder Dong Zhuo has been lingering at home for a few days, now it seems that he has something to do with Cheng'er.

Wei Hao thought so, and the clan elders thought the same way, and there were voices of approval for Wei Cheng all at once, and even the clan elder who said Wei Cheng was too leisurely, had to sigh at this time: The son of Wei's Kirin!
Wei Min winked at Xu Zhu, who stopped the crowd, and led the two of them out.

But when the three of them walked to the door, Wei Gong ran in with a panicked expression, and almost bumped into Wei Min.

The young man holding the Han sword had quick eyesight and quick hands, directly crossed the threshold and blocked Wei Gong, and the Han sword in his hand was slightly out of its sheath.

Wei Gong instinctively held the sword at his waist, looked up to see the smiling Wei Min, and shouted excitedly: "Second Uncle!"

Wei Min patted the shoulder of the young man with the sword, and said, "Bo Yan, don't be nervous."

The sword-wielding youth nodded, and stood behind Wei Min. Wei Gong looked at him with a provocative look in his eyes.

The young man was not afraid of him, and looked straight at him with a calm expression on his face.

Wei Min and Wei Gong asked: "Uncle Wen, do you have something important to report?"

Wei Gong turned around and replied: "Yes, Second Uncle, just now Second Brother sent someone to deliver a letter."

"Oh, Cheng'er sent someone to deliver a letter?" Wei Yan said with great interest, "Bring me a look."

Wei Gong looked up at Wei Hao who was at the head of the hall, hesitated for a moment, and handed the envelope to Wei Min.

After Wei Min took it, he stood at the door and opened it to look at it.

After watching for a while, his expression suddenly changed.

In the hall, Wei Hao and others also heard the movement, knowing that Wei Cheng sent someone to deliver the letter, they came out one after another.

With the previous experience of "planning" that He Jin must die, now everyone is very concerned about Wei Cheng's every move.

After reading the letter, Wei Min looked back at Wei Hao. After a long silence, an inexplicable smile rose from the corner of his mouth, and he said to everyone: "Jing'er said in the letter that Dong Zhuo might be the next In order to stabilize the situation, he must win over a group of gentry, and the gentry who were previously imprisoned by the party will be re-appointed, and I, the Wei family, are among them."

"What?" Everyone was shocked.

"Is there any more?" Wei Hao asked as he walked closer.

Wei Min handed him the letter paper in his hand, nodded and said: "Also, the gentry who participated in the forced palace this time saw that the peaches were picked, and they must be dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo. At that time, some people may stand up and form an alliance to challenge Dong Zhuo. Nanyang The Yuan family bears the brunt."

"This..." Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. This was possible because the gentry were not monolithic.

The Yuan family used the power of He Jin to suppress many noble families, including Wei, Cai, Xie and other big families.

It was also the plan of the gentry group headed by the Yuan family that planned to provoke conflicts between the foreign relatives group and the eunuch group. Now they are doing everything they can to benefit others, but it happens to be a good time for the Wei family, Cai family and other previously suppressed gentry groups to rise up.

"Could it be that all of this is really as planned by Cheng'er, and now I, the Wei family, are going to re-enter the ruling court?" Some people were already excited, and others also started to have shortness of breath.

Wei Min was also very surprised, and then said: "Jing'er also said in the letter that the Taiyuan Wang family, Chenliu Cai family and other clansmen will be reused. Wang Yun may serve as a Situ, and Cai Yong is at least a servant, and he can enter the inner court to teach thing."

The clan elders looked at each other in blank dismay, and someone raised doubts: "It's impossible, why is Cheng'er so clear about these things, could it be him?"

"Dong Zhuo went to see Cheng'er on purpose!" Someone suddenly reminded him.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and suddenly felt unbelievable. Can anyone plan to go this far?

Wei Min also had a look of surprise, holding a piece of paper in his right hand hidden in his sleeve.

This was sent by Wei Cheng along with the letter. He didn't take it out on the spot, but secretly hid it in his sleeve.

Because this blueprint is of great importance, if it is really as described in the picture, perhaps in this world, the Wei family can also fight for it.

···
Haojia Village.

Wei Cheng stood at the door of the shabby room, and below were the villagers of Haojia Village, who were either standing or sitting.

"Everyone, from now on, everyone is not going down the mountain to hunt and pick fruits. I, Wei Shi, will provide any daily needs."

The villagers looked at each other.

Wei Cheng added: "All the men, except those who participate in the daily training, all go to learn how to smelt iron with Uncle Da Dao, don't worry, I won't treat you badly.

If you have old people and children at home, I will support and educate you, eat three meals a day, have meat every meal, and have new clothes every season throughout the year. What you have to do is to create what I need according to the tasks I issued to you. utensils. "

Hao Dadao suddenly received such an important task, and suddenly felt that Alexander could let him forge iron, let him lead so many people to forge iron together, inexplicably made him feel flustered, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.

"Could it be that the young master wants to rebel?" Hao Dadao thought so in his heart.

Except for him and a few old elders who looked worried, the rest of the village looked happy.

The men were gearing up one by one. The first two confrontations with the Hujiabao people made them find another meaning of life.

These days, they have been following Xie Yu to learn about army formations and fighting methods. The men are already hungry and thirsty, and every day they dream of some unscrupulous thieves who can come to Haojia Village again to fight the autumn wind.

Needless to say, children are very happy when they eat and drink.But the women didn't expect to go so far. When they heard that Wei Cheng took care of their three meals a day, they were all overjoyed, and finally they didn't have to worry about their gray hair for their livelihood.

Seeing that no one refuted, Wei Cheng began to release the first task.

"From tomorrow onwards, the women in the village will be in charge of burning bricks, and the men will be divided into two teams. One pair will be responsible for building houses in the village, and the other pair will build towers. Along the cliff, a tower will be built every fifty steps."

The reason why Wei Cheng didn't want to go back to Wei Shi was because he didn't want his secrets to be exposed too much.

As long as he stays in Haojia Village, he can hide from everyone and bring out many incredible things from the modern times, such as the spears and Tang knives given to Xie Yu and Wei Gong, such as the weapons of mass destruction that may appear later.

At that time, even if someone wanted to investigate, they would definitely come to Haojia Village.

By the time they found out here, Haojia Village had already built fortifications, which he built to be impenetrable. The villagers on the mountain had food provided by themselves.

Of course, these are only preliminary ideas, and many subsequent layouts need to be optimized step by step.

At this time, someone suddenly asked: "My lord, do we have enough people in our village?"

Wei Cheng looked at that person, and saw that it was a woman, and her man was pulling her to tell her not to talk too much.

When Wei Cheng looked over, the woman trembled nervously.

"Don't pull her. If you have anything to say, just say it." Wei Cheng stopped the man and said to the woman.

The woman pushed her man, summoned up her courage and said, "Young Master, can I let my mother's family work together? My father, my mother, and my elder brother and second brother are all good at work. My father And my eldest brother is still a blacksmith in the village."

"Oh!"

Wei Cheng looked at Hao Dadao and asked, "Are there many blacksmiths in the ten miles and eight towns?"

Hao Dadao glanced at the woman, nodded and said, "A lot, there is an iron mine in the north of Luliang, and every village has a blacksmith who is responsible for making farm tools for people, but it needs a document issued by the government. In the event of war, we will also be recruited to help build weapons."

"That's why." Wei Cheng nodded, looked at the woman and said, "Yes, not only your family can come, but also the strong laborers in the village can bring their families and bring their families. Although our place is not big, we live in a 2000 People are not a problem, the more people there are, the better."

The woman was overjoyed when she heard the words, and quickly said yes, and dragged her man to tell him to go to his mother's house to inform someone to come over.

Wei Cheng said loudly again: "Have you all heard that, if you have any relatives and friends, as long as you are down-to-earth and willing to work, you can call them all. Before the population of the village is less than [-], my promise will be valid for a long time, and I will call people in later. But it's not that easy."

When Hao Dadao heard the words, his face showed embarrassment, and he wanted to say a few words, but he couldn't resist the joy of everyone in the village.

Wei Cheng patted Hao Dadao on the shoulder and said, "Uncle Dadao, take a long-term view. The world is about to be chaotic. The current two or three hundred people will definitely not be able to gain a foothold in the chaotic world. We must accept more people." people to join our family.”

Hao Dadao smiled with difficulty, not even saying he didn't dare, and obeyed the young master's orders.
