Ming Dynasty man

20 Escort

Li Jing finished the training syllabus, and Old Man Chen's training also came to an end.Taking advantage of everyone's rest time, Li Jing handed the outline to old man Chen, and explained the meaning of the outline in detail.Seeing that old man Chen was confused, Li Jing had no choice but to explain to him why he did this, and old man Chen suddenly realized.

After listening to Li Jing's narration, old man Chen turned around and looked at the bandits who were resting, and said in his heart: "You bastards, you are going to be in trouble."

In the following days, old man Chen trained the bandits according to Li Jing's arrangement.

At first the gangsters didn't take it seriously, but they couldn't bear it after a while, especially the standing and lying down caused them the most headaches. When standing and lying down, they were not allowed to move, and the whip came up as soon as they moved.

The bandits were beaten crying for their fathers and mothers.

But seeing that Li Jing was training like them, the gangsters felt a lot more balanced, at least the big bosses were also suffering with them.

It just seemed that the head of the family never moved when he was standing or lying down, so naturally the whip couldn't hit him.

This really made the gangsters a little depressed, when will the head of the family be able to move, let him taste the taste of the whip?
Although the bandits practiced hard, they didn't complain much.After all, there are three taels of silver to take every month, which is not much worse than the military salary of the most elite soldiers in the imperial court, or even worse.

And Li Jing didn't treat them badly in terms of food, and he had three meals a day full of meat.Such a good food, even those elite soldiers can't compare.Therefore, when the bandits were beaten, they really hated Li Jing, but after thinking about it, they felt that the big boss didn't treat them too badly.

During this period of time, Li Jing not only trained with the bandits, but whenever he had free time, he took Ma Wuzhuzi and others to find Shen Zheng, and asked him to teach them how to write and read.

It's a pity that Shen Zheng's level is really not high, and what he can teach is also limited.It's nothing more than the Three Character Classic, a hundred surnames and the like.

Fortunately, Li Jing's requirements were not too high, so he only asked Shen Zheng to teach them to write and read with a brush.

After learning to use a brush, Li Jing drew maps at night when no one was around.

Li Jing was very aware of the importance of the map. When he was meeting Shen Zheng in Lin County, Li Jing thought of this question after hearing so many place names from Zhuzi.

Li Jing has a lot of maps in his mind, and they will be of great use in the future.

However, Li Jing knew that the names of cities in later generations were different from those in the Ming Dynasty. Even if the names had not changed, the location of the city might not be the same as it was at the beginning, and after hundreds of years of changes, the terrain had also changed a lot.It is easy to make mistakes if he determines the position based on the names and locations of later generations.

But even so, the map must still be drawn, as for the differences, it can be modified later.

……

Time flies fast.

After the bandits trained for more than three months, Shen Zheng was surprised to find that the bandits on the mountain seemed to have changed. They all walked with their chests up and their heads up, and their eyes became much brighter.

Shen Zheng is also a person who has seen the world. Both Luoyang and Kaifeng have industries. Naturally, he has seen the officers and soldiers in the city many times. He found that even the officers and soldiers in a big city like Kaifeng are not as energetic as these bandits.

"Don't tell me, this Li Jing is indeed a talent, just such a group of people let him train them to look like a human being."

Thinking that several businesses had ended recently and needed someone to escort their belongings, Shen Zheng planned to ask Li Jing to bring some bandits down the mountain to escort them.

On this day, Shen Zheng came to Li Jing's residence during the interval of training.

Seeing Shen Zheng coming, Li Jing hurriedly got up to greet him: "Uncle Shi, please sit down, how come you have time to come to me today?"

After Shen Zheng sat down, Li Jing poured a cup of tea and handed it to him: "Hehe, this is the tea that Uncle Shi gave me. I will borrow flowers to present Buddha to invite Uncle Shi to have a drink."

Shen Zheng took the teacup, took a sip, pointed to the teacup and said, "Is this tea not bad? After you drink it, I'll send someone to bring it to you again."

"Uncle Lao, don't worry, my nephew doesn't know much about tea, just drink it to quench your thirst." Li Jing smiled and said, "Is Uncle Shi here today for something?"

"I have something to do, I want to ask my nephew to help." Shen Zheng put down his teacup, nodded and said.

"As long as my nephew can help, Uncle Shi just ask." Li Jing said.

"It's like this. I sold a few shops a few days ago, but I couldn't find anyone to escort my belongings back. I saw that the brothers under my nephew have almost practiced. I want my nephew to bring someone to help me escort my belongings back. .” Shen Zheng said.

As soon as he heard that it was a bodyguard mission, Li Jing smiled and said, "It's just such a trivial matter, I'd like to trouble Uncle Shi to come here, but it's enough to send someone over to say it. Tell me when you're leaving, brothers. It was very hard, so I took them down the mountain for activities.”

"Then I'll thank my nephew first. In just three or two days, we'll leave when the final payment is settled."

Shen Zheng stood up after speaking.

"Uncle Shi, do we need to say thank you words between you and me? The brothers on the mountain can practice a little bit, thanks to Uncle Shi's great help." Li Jing stood up and smiled.

"What? Look a little bit? It's called a little look like this after practicing?" Shen Zheng said in surprise.

"Hahaha, how far is it? They are looking good now, and the real swords and guns are here. I'm afraid it won't work. I will have to give them more in a few days." Li Jing laughed.

"How else do you practice? Don't practice to kill people." Shen Zheng said in surprise.

Thinking of the bandits being whipped every day in the past few days, Shen Zheng trembled when he saw it, and he had to add more to it, wondering how much more these bandits would have to be beaten.

"Uncle Shi, we are not outsiders, and I won't hide it from you. Now these people have only trained their muscles and bones, and they will have to practice their courage in the future. Don't think that these people are bandits. They are not afraid of officers and soldiers when they rob. Courage, in fact, is far from enough, I want to train them to the point where even if thousands of horses and horses rush in front of them, they will not change their faces." Li Jing laughed.

"Is this possible? Just these dozens of people can still face the army without changing face?" Shen Zheng asked.

"Yes, definitely, Uncle Shi, just watch." Li Jing smiled.

"Then I'll have to wait and see. Okay, you're busy. I'll go back and make arrangements. We'll go down the mountain in a few days." Shen Zheng said.

"Uncle Shi, go slowly." Li Jing cupped his hands.

Li Jing knew that since Shen Zheng had come to look for him, he must have already made arrangements. He had to wait a few days to arrange things on the mountain before he left. After all, Li Jing was new here. He was on the mountain, and all the bandits obeyed him one by one. Tie, if he wasn't on the mountain, wouldn't these bandits herd the sheep right away?
After pondering for a while, Li Jing asked Ma Wu and old man Chen to come and explain what happened after he left the mountain.

This time, Li Jing planned to bring thirty brothers with him. Zhu Zi and other nine young ones must be brought along, mainly to let these people see the world.

Da Hu, Er Hu, Da Zhuang, Liu Er Leng Zi, etc. who have trained more seriously and assiduously should also be brought along, which can be regarded as a holiday for them.Moreover, there are risks involved in escorting property down the mountain this time. This group of people have practiced well on the mountain, and they still need to practice and test it.

The rest of the people staying on the mountain were all old people on the mountain. Li Jing worried that old man Chen could not keep them down by himself, so he asked Ma Wu to help him look after the house.

With Ma Wu at home, these boys will naturally train obediently.

Moreover, there is another meaning of leaving Ma Wu to watch the house. Li Jing considered that after he and Shen Zheng and others left, there would still be family members of the Shen family on the mountain. move.

Ma Wu knew that the mountain was able to have what it is today, and it was because of Shen's efforts that the 2000 taels of silver came from Shen's family, which he saw with his own eyes.Later, the clothes for the bandits were made by the women of the Shen family, and even the cloth was made by the Shen family.

In particular, there is a lady from the Shen family on the mountain. Ma Wu and many bandits on the mountain have seen it before, and they are like gods.

Although Ma Wu didn't know what relationship Li Jing had with the Shen family, but Ma Wu was very clever, he could tell that Shen Zheng valued Li Jing very much, and he might give his daughter to Li Jing one day.Moreover, he saw that Li Jing's attitude towards Shen Zheng was a bit like a son-in-law's attitude towards his father-in-law.

Now that Li Jing is going down the mountain, if something happens to the lady of the Shen family, needless to say, the first thing Li Jing will do when he comes back is to chop off his dog's head.

In addition, if there was no such thing as Li Jing, Miss Shen's family would have become his wife in the village.

Ever since Li Jing and the Shen family went up the mountain together, this incident stuck in his heart like a thorn. Sometimes when he saw Shen Zheng, his eyes were evasive and he didn't dare to look at each other.

Li Jing naturally understood Ma Wu's thoughts, and letting Ma Wu stay to guard the cottage was to imply that Ma Wu, I value you very much, and I am very relieved of you.

Feeling Li Jing's heavy pat on the shoulder, Ma Wu understood Li Jing's hint, and knew that protecting the Shen family's family members was even more important than transporting property.

He nodded vigorously at the moment, and made up his mind that when Li Jing came down from the mountain, he would intensify the training for the bandits on the mountain. They must be trained like dead dogs. After training every day, they can only sleep obediently. What do you think? nor.

Seeing Ma Wu's solemn nod, Li Jing knew that he had understood what he meant.

After explaining the matter on the mountain, Li Jing began to call the brothers who were going down the mountain.

When going down the mountain this time, Li Jing asked all the people who went down the mountain to travel lightly.Because the eyeliner arranged at the foot of the mountain said that in the past month or so, a few unfamiliar faces appeared near Xiaomazhuang, and they talked to the villagers from time to time, asking if they found news of the convoy passing by and whether there were any bandits nearby.

When Li Jing got this information at the time, he knew that it wasn't someone from the government or someone sent by the Xu family.

Although the Shen family has many properties, most of them do not bear the name of the Shen family.In other words, the government didn't know that these shops were run by the Shen family.

In this way, there are only two ways for the government to seize the Shen family's business, one is to catch the person in charge of the Shen family, and the other is to find the Shen family's general ledger.

The Xu family had plotted against the Shen family's property for a long time, and it was so easy to charge the Shen family as a bandit. They couldn't wait to search the Shen family's property. When they found that the Shen family's property was not on the surface, they naturally understood what was going on. joints.
