Yu Dayou and Yiwu County Ling Zhao Dahe were polite, but Wang Rulong, who was holding his head and blaming himself in pain, stood up suddenly, gritted his teeth and said: "If we don't leave, we have to continue digging." ”

The villagers, whose hostility had already subsided, couldn't help but be furious, and immediately raised their weapons and prepared to go.

Yu Dayou finally managed to control the situation, how could he allow it to deteriorate again, and immediately arched his hand at Chen Dacheng, who gave face, and immediately loudly stopped the villagers who were about to move, and the situation was temporarily stabilized.

Yu Dayou stared at Wang Rulong and shouted: "Wang Kuangtou, you are still obsessed with the matter!" ”

Wang Rulong gritted his teeth and said: "We have thousands of people who have come from afar with rations, and now we have found nothing, seeing that the cold winter is coming, if we go back empty-handed, how will the wives and children at home spend the winter." I'll have to keep digging, and maybe I'll find the silver, then we'll have a way to live." ”

"Dream, even if you dig up the silver, it will be from our Beilei Village and Pingwang Village, when will it be your turn to be a group of outsiders!" Chen Ziluan sneered.

Wang Rulong glanced at Chen Ziluan coldly, and said in a cruel voice: "If you have to force us to have no way to live, then no one wants to live, and we will be scattered." ”

"Yes, Brother Wang, let's not go, keep digging!" The miners were clamoring.

Yu Dayou saw that the smell of gunpowder on both sides was strong again, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he looked up to the sky and laughed. Everyone couldn't help but look at it suspiciously, and Wang Rulong said slightly angrily: "What are you laughing at?" ”

Yu Dayou smiled and asked rhetorically: "Wang Kuangtou, if you continue to dig but still can't dig up the silver, what will you do?" ”

Wang Rulong's face couldn't help but sink, if he couldn't dig up the silver, then he was afraid that many of them would not be able to survive this cold winter.

This is not alarmist, the miners are all destitute class, they work in the official mines, they get a day's wages for a day's work, so as not to be forced to maintain the life of the family, usually not save a few money at all, and even if they don't work for a day, they have no money to buy food, and the family has to starve.

It is precisely because they are afraid of poverty that Wang Rulong and these people are easily coaxed to come to Babao Mountain to steal and dig silver mines, and everyone dreams of making a fortune and returning home with a lot of silver in a beautiful way.

However, Wang Rulong, the thousands of miners, gave up their original jobs and brought their own food to Babao Mountain to "make a fortune", but the time was spent, and the family's food reserves were exhausted, but in the end they found nothing, and then the family could only wait for death in the cold winter.

Yu Dayou saw that Wang Rulong was asked, so he continued: "Wang Kuangtou, you have come from afar just to earn some money to support your family, and now you can show you a way to make money, which is definitely more reliable than mining here." ”

Wang Rulong stared at Yu Dayou deadly, and asked half-suspiciously: "Really?" Don't you be a pastime, right? ”

Yu Dayou pointed to the east and scolded sharply: "Let your mother's bullshit, now my Ming Wanli Sea Frontier is being harassed by pirates and pirates, those bastards burn, kill and loot, do all kinds of evil, and the lives of the coastal people are miserable." If it weren't for the orders of the governor, Lao Tzu would still be killing the thieves in the east, and Lao Tzu would be so idle that he would come to entertain you grandsons? ”

Wang Rulong's face turned red and white after being scolded, and he arched his hand and said: "I am a rough man and can't speak, please ask General Yu to show me the way." ”

Sure enough, when talking to a rough person, you have to be thicker than him to be able to suppress it, so Yu Dayou continued to be "rough" and said: "Grass your uncle, this attitude is about the same." Listen, the Governor Chrysostom promised that the reward for killing a pirate would be five taels of silver, and the reward for killing a pirate would be ten taels of silver. Isn't this way of wealth more reliable than you digging here for a blind chicken? ”

Wang Rulong's eyes flashed instantly: "Really? ”

Yu Dayou pointed to Feng Lao Liu next to him and said: "Ah, this guy's name is Feng Lao Liu, the day before yesterday, when he recovered Fenghua County, he was beheaded at the sixteenth level, and the governor personally rewarded him with eighty taels of silver, as well as a hat." ”

Feng Lao Liu immediately showed the word "brave" on his hat very coquettishly, but unfortunately these miners in front of him were illiterate and only knew silver.

Feng Laoliu, who realized that he couldn't show off his ideas, immediately took out his money bag, revealing eight ingots of silver with white flowers, ten taels per ingot.

At this moment, all the miners, even those villagers, had their eyes lit up. Wang Rulong swallowed his saliva and said: "We are not officers and soldiers, even if we kill the Japanese Kou, will the Governor give us a reward of silver?" ”

Feng Laohe smiled: "Naturally, I won't give it, but you can join the army first." ”

Wang Rulong frowned and said, "Join the army? We are not military households. ”

Feng Lao Liu immediately said proudly: "Hehe, it's different now, you don't have to be a military household to enlist, my Boss Yu is in need of manpower, you can join at any time, but you have to go through the selection, our Boss Yu has a very high vision, not any crooked melon and cracked dates will be accepted." ”

Zhao Dahe, the magistrate next to him, couldn't stand it anymore, and frowned: "Deputy Feng Qianhu, you can't talk nonsense, when will the imperial court allow generals to recruit private soldiers?" ”

Yu Dayou arched his hand and said: "Zhao Zhixian doesn't know, Lord Xu, the governor of Zhejiang, has already allowed this general to recruit 5,000 new troops, and the text of the Bi Ri military department will be issued." ”

Zhao Zhixian shut up with amusement when he heard this, since the governor approved it, what else could he do with this little Qipin county order.

Wang Rulong glanced at Yu Dayou and said tentatively: "General Yu, if we join your command, how much money can we get in a month." ”

Yu Dayou raised two fingers and said: "Two taels of silver a month, but you don't belong to the Weisuo army, you don't have land to be allocated for cultivation, and you don't have a military status. ”

Wang Rulong is very happy, who is rare in the military, they only care about silver, as for the land, they are miners, there is no land, and two taels of silver is already very high for them, not to mention that there are rich rewards for killing thieves.

"Okay, Lao Tzu has joined!" Wang Rulong said loudly.

Wang Rulong is the head of the mine, and he said that he would join, so other miners also rushed to join.

Yu Dayou laughed heartily and said: "Come slowly, come slowly, this general is not accepted by everyone, and he must be selected." ”

After Yu Dayou finished speaking, he turned to Zhao Dahedao, the county order: "Zhao County Order, the general still wants to recruit new soldiers in your county, what do you think?" ”

Zhao County Ling couldn't wait to send all these headache villagers away as soon as possible, and immediately said: "It is the unshirkable responsibility of every Ming people to protect their families and defend the country, and this county naturally fully supports it." Chen Dacheng, why don't you all join the army and win glory for the people of Yiwu County, with your skills, maybe you can still be a marquis in the future. ”()
