Wei and Jin cooks

Fu Tinghan's eyes brightened when he heard this. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Arrange them to live in the city. I will go see them later."

"Yes, Lang Jun, they encountered bandits in Haierling this time, and many people were injured or killed."

When Fu Tinghan heard this, he pursed his lips and said, "Let them hire a doctor. Don't be stingy with money. Make good arrangements for their families. The money they get back will be allocated to enough pensions before being credited to the account."

"yes."

When word spread to other courtyards, not only the guards following the caravan, but also Gao Jie and Sima Hou couldn't help but be moved and convinced. If they escorted anything back, they would first guarantee pensions, which meant that their families could get the maximum benefit. Guarantee, so what’s there to fear?

The guards from the Zhao Jiajun were already loyal to Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan, and now they were even more loyal to them.

Listening to their words of loyalty, Gao Jie said calmly, "Master Fu is indeed as kind-hearted as the rumors say. Is this an order he gave personally?"

Fu An glanced at him and agreed, "Yes."

The guards were even more fond of Fu Tinghan. Although Sima Hou guessed that Fu Tinghan was using such favors to bribe Zhao Hanzhang, he had to admit that this method was very good. Even he, if one day his family could find him When he came back, as long as he knew that after his death, his family would receive a generous pension and be well taken care of, he would be willing to work hard for Fu Tinghan.

Even if he had to snatch food from Zhao Hanzhang's mouth, he was willing to snatch it for Fu Tinghan.

Of course, the guards had not thought so deeply at this time. In their eyes, Gao Jie Sima Hou, like them, was loyal to Zhao Hanzhang, and so was Fu Tinghan.

Fu Tinghan quietly went to see Gao Jie in the other courtyard at night and took a look at the guards and the things they brought back.

Knowing that there was a group of big bandits in Haierling, he couldn't help but frowned, "If you want to cross Xin'an, you must pass through Haierling, otherwise you can only pass through Gucheng."

Gao Jie immediately refused, "The beggar army is stationed in Gucheng. Goods must pay a heavy tax before passing there. Moreover, there are many bandits there and the journey is longer."

"Then we'll kill the bandits on Hai'erling," Fu Tinghan said. "We can't fight them every time we pass by, right? The losses will be too great."

Gao Jie lowered his voice and said: "But we are short of manpower. I would like to ask the people we know on the mountain to talk to each other. From now on, we are willing to make regular offerings to the mountain, as long as they keep us safe across Haierling."

Fu Tinghan was raised by Zhao Hanzhang to have a noble temperament, how could he suffer such grievance?

He said directly: "You don't need to take action, I'll go back and call someone."

Gao Jie said nervously: "Master, are you going to ask Ambassador Zhao to take action?"

Fu Tinghan nodded.

Gao Jie lowered his voice and said: "She can't do it. Zhao Shijun is very sensitive. It would be bad if he found out that you have privately raised a caravan."

Seeing Fu Tinghan's silence, Gao Jie said, "Maybe you can find the Xiliang Army."

Fu Tinghan's heart skipped a beat and he raised his eyes to look at Gao Jie. In such a short period of time, could he have gotten to know the Xiliang Army?

Gao Jie whispered: "When I returned to Luoyang today, I met an army training on the road. The flag was the Xiliang Army. I thought they were very excited. The bandits on the mountain were very fat, and the Xiliang Army was like If you are short of supplies, you will definitely want to find them elsewhere.”

Fu Tinghan said thoughtfully: "I know."

Gao Jie breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked in a low voice: "What should I do with these things I brought back?"

Fu Tinghan said: "Only give me money and a single book, and you can sell the rest of the goods."

Gao Jie went to open a box and let him see the contents inside, "Then these jewelry and jewelry accessories..."

"Give it all to me," Fu Tinghan said, "I'll ask Fu An to change it into money. After it's put into the account, you can get it from him as much as you need."

Gao Jie agreed and was very concerned about their great cause, "I wonder if the young master has recruited anyone who can be used recently?"

Fu Tinghan sighed and shook his head, saying: "Those same people, I asked them to form two caravans to go to Liangjiang and Jiangnan. Because the journey is far away, there is no news back."

Gao Jie frowned and said, "Master, why did you only form a caravan? You are Zhao Jun's fiancé and have always been with her. Now is the time to hire people. Why not recommend them to Zhao Jun?"

Although money is important, power is more important. If Fu Tinghan puts their people next to Zhao Hanzhang, over time, when they slowly gain power, it will be much easier to do anything else.

Fu Tinghan said: "I never thought about it. It's just that most of them went through Hanzhang's path before taking refuge in me."

Fu Tinghan said meaningfully: "They were useless at that time. If I recommend them again, what will outsiders think of me?"

He said: "Steward Zheng, who was working in the workshop before, was transferred to an iron mine as a steward, and stewards in iron mines can go to the county town to be the chief bookkeeper and county lieutenant."

Fu Tinghan said: "Although the process was a bit tortuous, she had real power in her hands, unlike the staff who suddenly appeared and could only gather around her to come up with some ideas."

Gao Jie's eyes widened and he asked, "Is Manager Zheng a member of the Young Master?"

Fu Tinghan shook his head, "Not really, but he thinks of me well. What I want to say is that I will build a larger workshop later, which will require more talents. When you go to Beidi again, find one for me. Find Han Chinese like this and come back."

"As long as they are good at it, even if they are slaves, I can allow them to be promoted normally in the workshop, and then use the workshop to jump to the county government, the county governor's office or the governor's office."

Gao Jie: "What kind of workshop is it?"

"Water mill," Fu Tinghan said: "It requires people who understand water conservancy engineering technology."

Gao Jie was disappointed and didn't think this was such a good future, but he still agreed and nodded: "If we go to the north, we will search carefully. Many of the Han people who were robbed by Shi Le and others had read books. , there are also some small officials and officials who were lucky enough to save their lives, they may know."

Fu Tinghan agreed and handed the matter over to him.

As soon as he returned to Zhao's house, he said to Zhao Hanzhang: "There should be a lot of sheep for sale in the horse market tomorrow."

Zhao Hanzhang perked up and asked, "Have Gao Jie and the others brought back the sheep?"

Fu Tinghan nodded, "There are also some beef jerky and mutton jerky, several carts of furs... and books."

Zhao Hanzhang sat up straight and said first: "We have to keep the book for ourselves, the fur..."

She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll have someone buy it tomorrow."

A smile flashed in Fu Tinghan's eyes and he asked: "There are several cars there. What do you want with so many furs?"

Zhao Hanzhang sighed and said: "Let's make armor. You don't know that the army has been short of furs. And don't look at it. It's summer now. Time flies. We always have to stock up on things for winter."

"With Sima Hou's character, he will definitely convince Gao Jie to give Zhao Jiajun a preferential price. Just let someone buy it."

Money matters...

Zhao Hanzhang took a look at the sky and felt that it was inhumane to go to Ji Yuan now, so he looked at Fu Tinghan and said, "Last time you helped Mr. Ji settle accounts, how much money do I have left?"
