Lord: Start with a copy of Water Margin

Tao Zongwang stood up and said: "Master, I have seen the entire Shuibo Liangshan terrain in the past few days. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides. The original ruins of the three passes on the south side have been repaired by people. There are valleys in the north, Shanxi and Shandong. If you can enter Wanzi City from these three places, if you want to stabilize it, you must also build passes at these three places. "

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen said: "Brother is good at this. Since he saw the weak points, he also asked him to build the pass in these three places at once."

Tao Zongwang agreed.

Seeing that no one was speaking, Zhao Zhen said: "Brothers, the former has not counted the seizures clearly, so no rewards have been given. Now that the counts are clear, I plan to give out rewards to encourage the soldiers to fight. How about it?"

Everyone was happy after hearing this and said, "But it depends on the owner's instructions."

Zhao Zhen said: "Guang Hui, Jiao Ting and Ruan Xiaoer made a sneak attack on the water village. This was their first success. Ruan Xiaoqi, Han Bolong and Bao Xu took over and they were their second success."

Ruan Xiaoer and Jiao Ting stood up and said, "Master, that's not right." They looked at each other and smiled, and it was Ruan Xiaoer who continued: "Master, sneak into the water village and kill the mangy turtle, scarface, and thin monkey. It is all the credit of the Guanghui brothers. Wanzicheng and Houshan Yingzhai were also captured by the Guanghui brothers. Therefore, Guanghui should be the first to take the credit.

The Jiao Ting brothers made a sneak attack on the water stronghold, captured the gate of the water stronghold, and then led a team to rush to the rescue to guard Wanzi City, which should be regarded as a secondary achievement. "

After hearing this, Jiao Ting shouted: "It's thanks to Brother Ruan that we captured the spies and sneaked into the water stronghold. The second credit should be given to Brother Ruan."

Seeing that the two of them were being humble to each other, Zhao Zhen said: "You two brothers, there is no need to argue. You two are both meritorious."

Zhao Zhen also recounted the contributions of Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi, Han Bolong, Bao Xu, and Tao Zongwang, and took out 5,000 pieces of cash and 300 pieces of silk and satin cloth to reward all the heroes and soldiers for their merits.

After drawing up the charter, the soldiers stationed in Liangshan took out the money and silk from the Wanzi City warehouse and issued it on the spot, and there was thunderous joy. The other soldiers from Xixi Village and Kushutun also sent rewards.

After the rewards were given, everyone returned to the court and sat down. Zhao Zhen asked: "Brothers, each according to his duties, is in charge of the affairs in front of and behind the mountain. You must work together to guard the beachhead of the village. If you stop teaching, it will be a mistake. If there is any mistake, If you have any inconvenience, you should speak up.”

After hearing this, Sun Zheng stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Master, I am the village chief of Liangcun. I have only been in the position for five or seven days. Now I have sorted out the village affairs clearly. I want to ask the master for your advice on something. The village originally had hoes, hoes, hoes, The iron farm tools such as sickles, shovels, and plows were all confiscated by Scarface and cast into weapons. The rice harvest is about to begin. I hope the owner of the village will allocate a batch of farm tools so as not to miss the farming season. "

Zhao Zhen nodded and asked Zhu Sha and Tang Sen: "Is this the same for Tianzhuang and Zhangzhuang?" The two shook their heads. Tang Sen said: "The farm tools are all there, but in order to control the waterway, the mane-headed turtles confiscated the fishing boats in the village. The owner of the village returned some of them, but now they can't allocate them to individuals. The village set up a fishing team to work together in the lake. Fishing.”

Zhao Zhen nodded and said to Sun Zheng: "When I return to Xixi Village, I will arrange for someone to transfer a batch of farm tools. Do you know who made these farm tools into weapons?"

Li Liang cupped his hands and said, "Master of the village, Scarface has a blacksmith named Yang Mazi, who is now being punished with hard labor to build the wall."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen said to Tao Zongwang: "In that case, brother Zongwang, take this man out of hard labor today and bring him back to Xixi Village, where he will arrange to work under Zhang Da in blacksmithing. If there are any apprentices, they will also be taken away. Through this After a few days of observation, thirty or fifty of the prisoners who performed well were selected and exempted from forced labor in advance, and were handed over to the Ruan brothers to be trained as soldiers. "

Tao Zongwang nodded and responded: "Brother, I will arrange it later."

Zhao Zhen turned to Tang Sen and said: "It's good to set up a fishing team, but we must keep good records and use the boat as a unit. The more we work, the more we get. If we don't work hard, we won't get anything. Don't make it a big pot."

Now the fishing team of Xixi Village must also implement this. The catch is purchased every day, and if a farmer buys it, it is sold at a higher price after purchase to prevent private trading by fishermen. If a spiritual object is caught, each fish will be rewarded with 10 guan, and the remaining spiritual objects will each receive a reward. The Zhangzhuang fishing team also handles it accordingly. If there is any disagreement, they will come back to discuss it. "

The six stewards all nodded in agreement, seeing that everything on Liangshan Mountain was well arranged. Jiao Ting was still stationed in Wanzi City, the newly arrived Du Qian assisted Tao Zongwang in supervising the construction of the three passes of Nanshan, and Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi were still stationed in Jinshatan Shuizhai. , patrolling the water park. Zhao Zhen and Ruan Xiaoer got up and returned to Xixi Village.

Driving the warship, carrying the captured goods, they crossed the water without stopping and saw Baishi Gang from a distance. Zhao Zhen said: "Brother, I will go to Baishi Gang to take a look."

After hearing this, Ruan Xiaoqi stopped the warship, lowered a speedboat from the ship, and Ruan Xiaoer rowed across the reed marsh and went straight to the shore.

After tying up the boat, the two of them walked around Baishi Gang. The main body of the temple had been repaired, and the door and window furniture had also been partially installed. Four carpenters were building panel doors, soft doors, broken windows, ceilings, caissons, and The decorations such as hook railings and wall hides were completed in the past two days.

Other villagers were building fences along Baishi Gang. Zhao Zhen originally planned to build them here next year and only waited to hunt the white foxes here in winter. Because the escort rabbit Li Ji said that the white foxes had moved to Kushu Mountain, he started building the fences.

After looking at the Pagoda Temple and the construction progress of Baishi Gang, Zhao Zhen and his two men still drove the boat back to the warship. Drive directly to Xixi Village Pier.

On the way, he saw two-masted and three-masted ships training sailors on the water. Ruan Xiaoer couldn't help but jumped from the stern to the two ships. After giving some instructions, he sailed back.

At the dock, Zhao Zhen ordered the sailors to unload the loot. Someone notified Zhao Yuanli and brought people to the dock to transport supplies. It was still early, Ruan Xiaoer went to train sailors, and Zhao Zhen supervised Zhuang Ding's transportation of supplies.

More than 400 pieces of swords, guns, swords and halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks, as well as iron and leather armors were stored in the arsenal. Boxes of gold beads, silver ingots, and copper coins were placed in the treasury, and silk and satin were also transported to the warehouse for storage. The porcelain was accompanied by calligraphy and painting. Zhao Zhen asked Zhao Yuanli to choose some and place them in various rooms in the village. All kinds of jewelry were also stored.

Zhao Zhen took out a piece of cloud-patterned rug produced by the Zhiluo Department, and selected two exquisite earrings and headdresses from the jewelry, and placed them in Bai Zhi's residence in the backyard.

After finishing packing, Zhao Zhen called Zhao Yuanli and said: "Yuanli, you have also seen that these seizures, whether new or old, still have a lot of clothes, futou, scarves, belts, boots and other items. Select a few from the village. A clever farmer, he sells it cheaply in several villages. "

Zhao Yuanli said: "What the owner wants is that this will not only show the owner's benevolence, but also deal with the clothes that take up space."

Zhao Zhen continued: "This is the first thing. There is another thing. Liangcun lacks farm tools. We will allocate a batch from the village and send it to Zhang Da to make a batch quickly. Don't delay the rice harvest."

Zhao Yuanli responded: "Master, I understand. I will urge Blacksmith Zhang to make farm tools and allocate sickles and other items to send to good villages."

After saying that, Zhao Yuanli went off to do his business. Zhao Zhen was drinking tea and resting when he heard a commotion outside the village. When Zhao Zhen came out of the village gate, he saw Guanghui coming back from the county town, driving more than ten large carts, carrying several Buddha statues, and bringing with him No. 100 villagers in ragged clothes.
