The late Ming Dynasty in the living room

Chapter 117 Meeting () We need a fat lady!

When the time comes, he, Old Liu, will be rolled to death, drowned in saliva, and bricks thrown at him in the middle of the night...

It won't end well anyway!

Lao Liu did not dare to argue forcefully, so he had to look at Fang Yu for help.

Fang Yu was trying to remember when he had praised the fat lady. (Chapter 34: Lady Cui, thank you for your hard work)

To be honest, he had always suspected that there might be something wrong with the fat lady's taste buds. Otherwise, how could a woman make the food so unpalatable?

Seeing Lao Liu's pitiful look, Fang Yu said: "The Cui family's wife still has to stay in the cafeteria because... she has unparalleled talents in carrying heavy objects and breaking rice. The location of a cafeteria is irreplaceable.”

"In addition," Fang Yu glanced at everyone, and then said, "I have to remind you that you will often go to the river in the future, and you will also eat in the second cafeteria."

As soon as Fang Yu finished speaking, the silent people in the conference hall suddenly came to life.

Liu Ji expressed strong opposition to Lao Cui's suggestion. He said: "Last time, the four of you cut a green bean, but it rolled out before you could hold it down. If the fat lady hadn't arrived in time, the door of our logistics department would have been closed." I can’t keep it!”

Old Man Zhao shook his head listlessly: "Ms. Cui left, we have to hire several helpers in the cafeteria. I will not approve the note for you for several times more wages." (There is no logic, the second cafeteria will not do the same. Please?)

The sophomore in high school shouted angrily: "If the fat lady didn't knock the rice, our security team won't eat it!"

Amid the anger of the crowd, Lao Cui was quickly defeated.

Fang Yu knocked on the table and said: "Old Liu broke the rules of the venue and forfeited one month's chief executive's allowance. This will not happen again. Okay, let's talk about the next thing."

Several proposals were put forward repeatedly in each meeting, and were rejected and then brought up again. In short, they persisted and were increasingly criticized as "laodai proposals".

For example, brick kilns need people, and the security team needs to increase its number.

It had only been half a day since the sophomore in high school returned to his position as head of the security department, but he was obviously well prepared.

There are two new reasons he proposed. One is that three beggars escaped from the brick kiln two days ago. Although two beggars were hunted down (there is an iron wall outside, it is easy to catch), but one is missing.

“Only the next morning did I discover that such a big hole had been dug in the north wall!”

The second-year high school student gestured with the size of the hole with his hand and made a very exaggerated expression on his face, then said: "These flowers hate us so much that they might come back to take revenge one day. This kind of thing can't happen again. Therefore, there should be one more platoon for the guards at the brick kiln, and two more platoons for those patrolling outside.”

Why are the wall tiles loose and why is there a big hole?

Everyone can guess the reason, but no one dares to say. (Pan Niangniang’s Mishan landslide)

The second reason is that Yang Wenyue, the governor of Baoding, is about to go to Kaifeng. In this case, he will definitely not be able to do the work of suppressing bandits at Zijin Pass.

The bandits are nesting in the continuous Taihang Mountains. They are familiar with the terrain and have three cunning rabbit holes. No matter how good Yang Wenyue is, they will definitely not be able to wipe them out in a short time.

"We have gold and silver in our new city. The news has already spread throughout Laishui County. In order to prevent them from coming to rob us, I propose that the city's defense should be increased by at least six...five more platoons!"

Five platoons plus three more platoons will almost double the current number of people in the security department.

The sophomore felt a little guilty, but he still looked at the whole place with a very serious look. It seemed that he was worried about the safety of the camp, but in fact he was waiting for someone to raise objections, and then he would spray back with full force. (Except Young Master)

Unexpectedly, before anyone else could say anything, Baoding Governor Yang Wenyue stood up with a smile.

He kindly comforted Gao Er and said: "Master Gao, don't worry. Yang has ordered his trusted subordinate Ma Dai (with the rank of general, who became the general of Baoding one year later in history) to stay at Zijin Pass. Ma Dai will continue to suppress the bandits. If Yang goes to Kaifeng, he will not take away any of the soldiers from Zijin Pass."

...Nima! The face of the sophomore in high school suddenly turned dark.

He turned to Yang Wenyue and glared angrily: Boss, can you please stop talking? Not surprisingly, the proposal of the second year of high school was once again rejected on the grounds that "the external security situation has not changed significantly."

Fang Yu was of course afraid of death, and he was more concerned about the safety of the camp than his sophomore year in high school.

However, now the entire camp is almost as surrounded as an iron barrel: there is a 2100-person grain depot garrison camp by the river, 1200 Beijing camp guards brought by Queen Zhang in the county, and Min Wen Gong's three squads of yamen guards and inspections. Si (I look forward to it every day, just because I’m afraid there won’t be a chance to curry favor).

To be honest, Fang Yu actually felt that these people were quite a hindrance.

If they hadn't been so big outside, maybe those bandits would have formed a group to kill them.

It's not an option to always be on guard like this in a new city. Now you have to go through security checks when you come in and out. Are you tired?

If it weren't for their big piles, the bandits would happily arrive outside the city gate. They would find that the wall was bare and no one would throw stones down at all.

They will attack the city gate first.

When the time comes, the security team will hold volleys of guns against the two city gates. Ninety people are really enough, and they can even be divided into three rows to carry out three attacks.

Then they would make noises and attack in the east and west. Some people were shot at the city gate, and some people began to quietly climb the stairs and climb the city wall.

At this time, a bolt of lightning came down from the sky... Well, iron conducts electricity very quickly.

After the meeting, Sun Chuanting hurried back to Yizhou, while Yang Wenyue had to go to Laishui County Government Office.

The Juma River has abundant water flow, which will save a lot of effort in transporting grain and military supplies in the future. The prerequisite is: there must be large ships, docks, and large transshipment warehouses.

A large part of these tasks are assigned to the county magistrate Min Wengong.

Well, the two governors gave him military orders.

If Mr. Min cannot complete the task on time and as required, he and the government officials can be directly taken to the Juma River and beheaded without any need to report to the court in advance.

This is the rule for small people to work for big people. It is easy to get ahead, get promoted and make a fortune, but it is also easy to lose your head and even the lives of your whole family.

Because the Son of God came to the new city, the people in the new city lived a stable and peaceful life.

Outside the new city, because there were 20 million taels of silver and because the gods lowered a river, Sun Chuanting and Yang Wenyue's war preparations suddenly accelerated, and the countdown to the Central Plains War had officially begun.

……

The sophomore year of high school returned to the training ground dejectedly. Seeing the boss's appearance, several waiting platoon leaders knew that the expansion matter had gone awry again.

They were too careful not to mention it again.
