"What about the sea?"
Yu Dayou just asked this, Wang Tong was stunned, looked over, and only saw the ships coming in and out, but not the others. Yu Dayou stood there, walked around the bank of the Haihe River with a stick, and said:
"The old man has lived for so many years, and he has also seen Fujian and Guangdong before the trouble, and he has also been to those famous cities in the world in Zhejiang, such as the prosperous ones on the edge of Tianjin Wei, but Tianjin Wei has only been in this situation, it is really a sea of gold and silver!"
Being said like this, Wang Tong didn't feel any joy, Yu Dayou was obviously not boasting, Wang Tong looked at the beach again with some solemnity, and finally understood a little.
"Isn't the boss talking about coastal defense? Eleven forts, more than 1,000 soldiers stationed and a security army formed by Hutou, Li Tao, Sun Xin and a few other teenagers, these manpower is enough to deal with. β
"More than a thousand soldiers guarding eleven batteries, and this unformed security army, can take care of such a large area? The enemy comes from the sea, breaks in in the east and in the north, or enters the Haihe River at night, puts down the sampan and kills it, as long as you break into the street and put a fire, it is a heavy loss, you are only three broken boats, you can't stop and can't catch up, and the shore seems to be a sieve, what kind of coastal defense! β
Speaking of which, Yu Dayou's voice was already a little stern, Yu Dayou was very kind on weekdays, and he didn't do it. He was angry, and he was obviously talking about things today, but he was a little excited.
Wang Tong understands in his heart, combined with Yu Dayou's life experience, this excitement and severity are not difficult to understand, the old general's life has ups and downs in officialdom, and his encounters are also ups and downs, but there is a theme, that is, anti-Japanese.
Yu Daqian has been fighting to the death with the pirates from the sea all his life, I don't know how many bloody battles, if Wang Tong and the others are his closed disciples, but this is the case in his own defense area and coastal defense, no wonder the old general has such anger. Thinking of this, Wang Tong was moved in his heart, bowed solemnly, and said: "It was Wang Tong who was negligent, please teach the old man!" β
Yu Dayou put down the crutches in his hand, walked forward again on crutches, Wang Tong followed, Yu Dayou said slowly: "Such a big piece of fat, is there any available sailor in the imperial court, the pirates on the sea are coming, bite you and leave, what can be done?" β
As Yu Dayou spoke, Wang Tong was also observing the streets on the banks of the entire Haihe River, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and Yu Dayou continued:
"Now that the situation is in your favor, and the people by the canal are also convinced by you, there is no need to put so many forces over there and in the city, put all the defenses in your hands on this side, and then take precautions as soon as possible." "Over the canal and the boot barracks?"
"Qi Jiguang's person knows the right and wrong, and the old man Sun Zhibin also knows one or two, he is an old and serious person, it is enough for you to leave two battalions of personal soldiers in the city, and the rest are placed here."
Wang Tong hesitated for a moment, finally made a decision, and said in a solemn voice:
"What the boss taught me is that the Japanese officials will start to transfer it tomorrow, anyway, there are also barracks by the Haihe River, my lord, you have been watching here for a long time these days, what else should you pay attention to, but please tell me."
Yu Dayou stopped and nodded, and pointed in all directions with the crutches in his hand and said, Wang Tong kept a small notebook and charcoal with him, and hurriedly took out the record.
"The words that the boss said are exquisite, every sentence is golden, but these things are not enough for the Jinyiwei family to do, but also to mobilize in many ways, everyone participates, Sun Shenjiang's side, the officials in the city, and even the merchants and residences outside the city, must also participate, otherwise it will be chaos at that time."
Wang Tong's thoughts also turned, from time to time to say something like "emergency plan", "national mobilization", "early warning mechanism" and the like, charcoal kept writing and drawing in a small book, Yu Dayou looked at it with a smile, and finally said with a smile: "Although you are young, you have a thoughtfulness that people in your forties and fifties do not have, and you can want to seal some new things, and it is even more rare to know how to do things seriously, which is really rare!" "Not long after, Wang Tong has already made a rough outline of the arrangements he wants to make, and slowly sorted it out after going back, and now Wang Tong has an advantage, that is, he has sufficient financial resources.
Jinyi Wei Qianhu plus Huwei Army, full of calculations is not enough for 4,000 people, is closely watched by the above, not allowed to expand, not expanded, spend less money on military pay equipment exercises, more silver used in other places, in Tianjin Wei this place, with silver everything is convenient, everything can be done well and quickly.
When Wang Tong came from the city, it was almost noon, and he followed Yu Dayou to a garden, and the lively crowd on the street became a little sparse, Wang Tong finished recording, patted his forehead with his hand, and smiled embarrassedly: "Just thinking about things, the boss's lunch is useless, let's go eat first, go eat first!" Yu Dayou nodded, not polite, and walked in the direction of the restaurant with a crutch. To get to the restaurant, you have to cross a few streets and walk a short distance, and in the area where there are many shops and freight yards, the most feared thing is the fire candle.
Therefore, it is not allowed to eat in the store, and you can only go out of this area to eat in the residential area that has not been built recently, and those who stay behind can only bring food, and there are soldiers who come to the door every day to monitor the fire candles, and violate the heavy punishment. However, everyone has business dealings, and it is inevitable that there will be a welcome and send-off hospitality, so Wang Tong has set aside an area near the river and built several restaurants and restaurants, one of which is a branch of Zhenxing Building, and one is a branch of Xingcai Inn, and the rest are rented at a large price by a large restaurant in Tianjin Acropolis.
The business is not an ordinary prosperity, not to mention that the wealthy businessmen from the north and south of the Haihe River gather, all of whom are willing to spend money.
Some people who have already been interested in activating themselves have contacted the Sanjiang Commercial Bank, saying that they want to build a restaurant and restaurant on the vacant land here, as long as the land is rented to them, the construction of the house will be paid for by them, and the kitchen and men will be hired by them.
Everyone's mind is very clear, as long as you start a business, it will naturally be gold and silver rolling in, and the rent looks expensive, compared to what you earn, it is nothing.
Wang Tong and his entourage are not in a hurry, no matter how good the business is, Wang Tong still has a place to go, everyone is not hungry, and it is pleasant to take a walk.
There are still two streets when you are about to walk to the restaurant, but you are blocked from the way, and you can watch the excitement This is a tradition that has been passed down since ancient times, and this place is no exception.
The inner three layers and the outer three floors were blocked, and the guards who followed left and right immediately stepped forward to disperse the crowd when they saw this, Wang Tong smiled apologetically at Yu Dayou, but immediately heard someone inside shouting: "What are you harboring fugitive slaves, you are talking nonsense like this, who can believe it!" "The second manager, the second manager, the small lard was blinded, and for a while he was confused, he took the silver and ran to Yunwanjiadian, and the small silver was given to the owner of Wanjiadian to open a store......"
Hearing this, Wang Tong stretched out his hand and waved, but he was interested in transporting things, the 10,000 stores in this location should be 10,000 stores, when Wang Tong opened a store by the Haihe River, no one was willing to come to the door when recruiting tenants, this 10,000 family is just an ordinary rich family in the city, but he has the vision to rent a store with money.
The shops close to the restaurant are all in good locations, and when they get hot, there are already people who are willing to pay five times the rent to sublease, but Wanjia is unwilling to transfer, because he just buys and sells the specialties of Yongping Mansion and Hejian Mansion and makes a lot of money, so why transfer it out.
Because of the early dealing, Wang Tong had some impressions, and was about to continue to listen carefully, but Yu Dayou on the side paused on crutches and politely asked a passerby: "May I ask the little brother, what is going on inside, making it so lively!" β
Seeing that Yu Dayou was dressed decently and spoke politely, the person who was asked did not dare to slack off, and pretended to lower his voice mysteriously and said:
"Uncle, you don't know, the four shopkeepers in this 10,000 stores are the fugitives from the owner of the Yongsheng Warehouse, and they were recognized on the street, so people came to find them, tsk, I said how the business of these 10,000 stores is so prosperous, it turned out that the stolen silver was privately shared with the fugitive slaves, so there is a large amount of capital, and today's retribution is coming!" The man said that his mouth was foaming, but Wang Tong became more and more interested, turned his head to look at Yu Dayou and said with a smile: "Do you want to go to eat first?" "No, the old man also wants to see the excitement.
Yu Dayou replied with a smile, Wang Tong nodded, and squeezed in, slaves and maids are the property of the master's family, if the slave escapes and is caught, after the master's family is killed, the government will not even sentence heavily, and often it will not be done, and the person who harbors the fugitive slave, according to the Ming law, is considered to steal cattle and horses, and the crime is increased by three points.
Listening to the meaning of these words, this fugitive slave also brought money out, harbored the fugitive slave and even privately divided the stolen goods, and this crime has to be added a few points.
Everyone watched the excitement and was fascinated, Wang Tongyun helped people squeeze in and glared angrily, no one who knew Wang Tong, but he saw a group of strong people with knives at their waists, but they didn't dare to offend, so they could only let them squeeze in.
At the gate of Wanjia Inn, a young man knelt on the ground and cried again and again, and a middle-aged fat man in a satin robe and five big men stood opposite, and next to the young man stood a middle-aged man with a worried face, and said in a helpless voice: "How can it be a fugitive slave, how can it be a fugitive slave, Xiao Tang gave me a guide, and his relatives' letter of guarantee, how can he ......" Yunren was anxious, but the middle-aged fat man was full of sneers, and said leisurely:
"Why aren't you fugitive slaves, the documents of the Fenzhou Zhizhou Yamen are here, don't you say you won't leave?" Wang Tong had already squeezed into the inner prison, listening and watching intently.
