Lin Jingzhong opened each silver bag on the side of Lin Bin's book case and looked at it, and he couldn't wait to spread all the five bags of official silver on the ground and count them one by one. Twenty thousand taels of silver sounds very scary, but in fact, there are only four hundred official ingots of fifty taels of standard, each of which is not even as big as Zhou Pu's fist, but it makes Lin Jingzhong almost saliva when he sees it. Lin Jingzhong has been thinking about silver these days, and his hair has turned white, and suddenly there is a pile of white silver piled up on his face, dazzling his eyes.

"By the way, where did this money come from?" After a long time, Lin Jingzhong remembered to ask where the silver came from.

"Today's chaotic battle in the sky is not without reason......" Lin Jian told Lin Jingzhong about the Qu family, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold his breath, after all, the estuary is under the jurisdiction of the Quyang Town Inspection Division, Lin Jingzhong wants to deal with the Qu family, especially Quyang Patrol Qu Wuming, on behalf of the Jiyun Society, and now the prison island has the right to assist in the defense of the estuary, although it is not clear that the administrative belonging, Lin Jian can completely put the Quyang Town Inspection Division aside, and there is anything that can be connected with Moling County.

"Ahh Lin Jingzhong looked at the silver in his hand in a daze, these days, there are few people outside the East City who still talk about the tragic attack on the homeless people who died thirty-six people, but the disappearance of Qu Wuyang's only son has made a lot of noise. In addition to Qu Wuyang's only son, who is the son of a famous playboy in Jiangning, the reward offered by the Qu family through Jiangning Mansion and Moling County is also a stinging thing, and the reward of 5 million yuan is more than 4,000 taels of silver in Jiangning to buy 500 acres of fertile land.

Lin Jingzhong swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty and asked, "Have you found out who is behind the Qu family?" ”

"No," Lin Jian shook his head and said, "During this time, the Qu family has been trying their best to find Qu Wuyang's only son, and there is no sign of close contact with other forces. I must say that if there is anything behind it, Chen Xiyan, the former head of the household department who left the center to lecture at the Xixi Society, is Qu Wuyang's wife and cousin, but Chen Xiyan should not have the motive to be so ruthless. To chase down, before the prison was cleared, the female prisoners in Jiangdao Prison had to be forced to sell themselves in the brothels of Quyang Town as long as they had the slightest appearance, and the two brothels in Quyang Town were the properties of the Qu family. After the prison was cleared, there would be no female prisoners to sell themselves in the brothel in Quyang Town, but according to the Prosecutor's Department, the Qu family was not held accountable, and even Ge Zuxin, Zhou Shide and others used money to launder their crimes and leave Jiangning Mansion. To say that because of this or to prevent the Jiyun Society from gaining a foothold in the estuary, it can also be said to be a far-fetched motive, no matter how you say the blood feud of the thirty-six people, it won't end like this......" The last sentence, Lin Jian said coldly.

Lin Jingzhong and everyone sighed.

The so-called "relatives or remnants of sorrow, others have also sang", the tragedy of the displaced people has passed for more than a month, that is, among the displaced people, the panic and sadness have gradually dissipated, and the forest view center naturally regards the tragedy as a lesson, and soon thinks about how to spend 20,000 taels of silver.

After a while, everyone shifted the topic to business, Lin Jian said: "When Jiyun Society took the business post from Moling County, the principal reported was 20,000 taels of silver, and after the construction of the project here, the expenses have always been very large, and in the past two months, there have been as many as five or six thousand taels of silver money. There are only a few people who have a little bit of money in mind about the account books of Jiyun Society, and Lin Mengde is only a few. However, these people are still reliable to the Jiyun Society, even if they see some problems, they will not go around talking nonsense, and there is no need to worry about the Qu family's vigilance if the silver is directly put into storage. ”

"20,000 taels of silver to 245 million yuan of copper, for ordinary people, it is definitely an unimaginable amount of wealth, but this money is really limited," Cao Ziang said, "With a three-masted thousand-stone ship that can withstand the wind and waves of the coastal sea, the cost of one ship will cost four or five thousand taels of silver, and twenty thousand silver taels can only buy four or five thousand-stone ships." ”

"Yes," Lin Jian sighed and said, "If there are no strong people in the court to stand up and turn the tide, I am afraid that the world will become more and more chaotic, and I am more willing to buy a few more big ships just in case." In addition, the current southeast to north Cao Road has not yet begun to recover due to the impact of the war in eastern Fujian, and there are many shipyards near Jiangning Mansion that have a backlog of new ships in their hands due to the cancellation of orders from previous shipowners. Even if the world recovers from chaos, buying more ships at this time will not be a loss-making business. In addition to the previous three-masted ship, I would like to add another large merchant ship to Jiyun Society's side for normal trade. In addition, since the previous day, the Jiangning Prefecture and the various prefectures and departments of Jiangdong County have officially recognized the right of the prison guards of the Jiangdao Prison to assist in the defense of the estuary, and I have also used the excuse to add two fast armed vehicles and ships to the prison island. Speaking of which, what gives me a headache is the problem of staffing, and fortunately the big loach and the little loach are here, otherwise I would really be sad to death......"

"Tan Ye is polite, our brothers can only do their best to ......," Ge Cunxin said.

Lin Jingzhong knew that the name of Tan Zong, the fox in the east of Changshan Island, was erected, but he just wondered in his heart: Why did the Ge brothers regard Tan Zong as Lin Zong's real name, and they were all referred to as "Tan Ye" in private discussions?

When Cao Ziang heard that the problem of the prison guards had solved the problem of the right of the prison guards to assist in the defense of the estuary area, he looked excited and asked, "The prison guards are going to be expanded?" ”

"Well, make up the gap first, three teams of warriors are enough to deal with the small bandits in Chaotiandang. In the next two days, we will go to the north bank with the Admiral's Mansion and the Inspectorate to select displaced people to fill the military ......households," Lin Jian said.

With the assistance of Zhou Pu and Zhao Hu, it is not a problem for Lin Jian to personally control these three teams of prison island warriors, and the key is the personnel distribution on the estuary.

Lin Jian and Cao Ziang discussed, first of all, to ensure the staffing of the ship that transported materials to Changshan Island, without full certainty, it was not easy to use outsiders, and the thirty subordinates brought by Ge Cunxin and Ge Cunxiong this time were mainly deployed on that ship. The two fast-armed vehicles and ships added to Prison Island can only be used by prison guards, but the sailors still have to choose from the estuary to recruit workers and displaced people. Lin Jian asked the brothers Ge Cunxin and Ge Cunxiong to recommend two reliable men to be the leaders of the sailors of these two armed vehicles and ships, not only to assume the responsibility of training sailors, but also to have the ability and courage to organize sailors to assist the soldiers in fighting and even directly fight the enemy in case of water battles.

The merchant ships added by the Jiyun Society, whether they are boatmen, sailors or military guards, can recruit people from the estuary to recruit people for training, but the merchant ships carry millions of dollars, and the leader of the merchant ships cannot ignore it, and in the end, it was decided that Ge Cunxiong, the little loach master, would be in charge of the ship personally, and he really couldn't spare other manpower, so he asked Chen Enze to follow Ge Cunxiong to run errands.

Of course, now the Jiyun Society only allocates a budget of 4,000 taels of silver to Ge Cunxiong, and Ge Cunxiong is responsible for everything from the purchase of merchant ships, supervision and transformation, staffing, training and final launching. Although there are many new ships in the Longjiang Shipyard in his hands, Lin Jian still requires that the standards of offshore navigation and even combat be reinforced, and if there is an accident, this ship still has to go to Changshan Island.

"Master Cao, I hope you can stay on the shore," at the end of the discussion, Lin Jian said to Cao Ziang, "There are more than 100 homeless households in Moling County's household yellow register here at the mouth of the river, and it will increase in the future, so you need to compile Lijia." I have discussed with Moling County, the capital of Li Changjia can choose people from the displaced people to play, after all, Jingzhong is young, the experience is still lacking, and my energy is limited, I want to wronged Cao Ye to be this Li Chang ......"

Lin Jingzhong was overjoyed, and Cao Ziang was in charge of civil affairs, and the burden on him should be lightened by at least half. In fact, these days, under the deliberate guidance of Lin Tie, Cao Ziang, Ge Cunxiong, and Ge Cunxin have become the de facto leaders of the displaced people at the mouth of the river. Zhou Pu and Wu Qi are both Sui Hu's identities.

The prison guards usually have to be stationed on the island, although there are forty military guards on the Jiyun Society's side, but if the two boats are divided, if ten military guards can be left on the estuary side, it will be considered the sky, and it is necessary to take the road of organizing and training civilian households, and only Cao Ziang is suitable to do this.

Cao Ziang thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll stay on the shore; In the future, the affairs of Changshan Island will be hard work......"

Ge Cunxin scratched his unkempt beard, Cao Ziang and Cunxiong and others were divided, leaving him with less than thirty people, and there would be no problem if he sailed normally, if he encountered other bandit forces, there were less than thirty people under him to guard a thousand-stone ship, which was quite a difficult thing, he asked: "Can you use some black households on the ship?" ”

"Yes," Lin Tie nodded and said, there are no rules when the boat goes down this day, it is normal to use black households and carry private goods, it is nothing more than the fees of various forces must be sufficient, "Who to use, the big loach master should feel reliable." "You can even draw some more people directly from Changshan Island, Lin Jian can now be said to have grasped the civil and defense powers on this side of the estuary, and this little action can still be done, even if it is discovered by others, it is not a big deal, as long as there is no big mess. In this world, if you are too disciplined here, it will give others suspicion.

******

Everything is chaotic, and the discussion stops, and it is already the middle of the month.

Lin Jian asked everyone to have a simple meal in the cottage before leaving.

Since many migrant workers came to the estuary, Cao Ziang and others pretended to be homeless people, so they naturally wanted to live in a shack, and Lin Jian also asked Lin Jingzhong, Qian Xiaowu and others to live in a shack. Now that the surrounding house has been built, Lin Jian also asked Lin Jingzhong and Qian Xiaowu to move into the surrounding house to live with those displaced people.

Qian Xiaowu's wife, Yun Niang, was still helping to clean up the house, and Lin Jian saw that it was getting late, so he asked her to stop and go back to rest first. Thinking that Qian Xiaowu's talent and ability are actually not weaker than Lin Jingzhong, he could have taken on more affairs, but he is a strange person, and Lin Jian is not sure that he can accept the fact that Jiyun Club is not only colluding with officials and businessmen, but can even be said to be "officials and businessmen" colluding with each other.

After Lin Tie walked to the thatched hall, he looked at the backyard that was simply fenced with bamboo fences shrouded in moonlight, as if people were standing at the bottom of the clear clear water, and after a busy day, his head was a little swollen, and when he saw the moonlight, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, Lin Tie couldn't help but sit on the bamboo steps and look at the moonlight in the courtyard and press his temples with his fingers.

"Are you tired?" Liu Yue'er quietly squatted beside Lin Lian.

"Some ......" Lin Jian glanced back at Liu Yue'er, turned to the side, and let her sit beside him.

Liu Yue'er turned around and glanced through the back door hole, Zhou Pu and the guards were either practicing knives in the front yard, or scattered around to guard, there was no one in the house and the backyard, she had the courage to say: "Why don't I rub it for you?" The man squatted behind Lin Jian and rubbed his fingers lightly on the Sun Hall for him.

Smelling the faint fragrance coming from Liu Yue'er's body, and pressing the sun with her slightly cool and delicate fingers, Lin Lian felt comfortable through his heart, stretched out his feet and collapsed his hands, and leaned into Lin Liuyue's arms to enjoy it.

Liu Yue'er didn't think that Lin Jian was such a scoundrel and had to get up inch by inch, seeing that he closed his eyes and frowned, and couldn't bear to push him away from his arms, so she endured the shame and panic that might be discovered by others at any time, rubbed him, and whispered to him.

"What's going on tomorrow?"

"Things can't be done," Lin Jian felt Liu Yue'er's fragrance and softness, and said with his eyes closed, "There are still some people to be recruited on the island, and Yang Shi will be sent to the north shore." The prison books on the Zhengye Hall side have also been engraved, and after a while, when the bamboo hall here is completed, Zhao Shuhan will be invited to give a lecture......"

"How many people will listen to the prison book?" Liu Yue asked.

"Who knows," Lin Jian didn't know how many people he would be able to invite by then, "and you will listen to it then." ”

"I'm a woman, what are you doing listening to this?" Liu Yue'er refused without much thought.

Lin Jian smiled, and at this time, he didn't force Liu Yue'er, and nagged her about the things that he had to do these days: "Jiyun Society wants to add two big ships, although the transformation of the hull has always been supervised by Jingzhong and the Ge family brothers, I always have to take time to take a look; On the other hand, the dock side has a preliminary appearance, and now the prison guards also have the right to assist in the defense of the estuary, and with this foundation, they can trick others into throwing money in. Jiyun Society can't invest all the money in it, and besides, according to Ge Siyu's plan, three streets will be built here, and Jiyun Society doesn't have so much silver to invest, so I will go to the city tomorrow to ......."

"......" Liu Yue'er chuckled, "Don't say serious words, but I want to say the word 'deception', how many people do you say have deceived you?" ”

"Aren't they?" Lin Lian smiled, and asked Liu Yue'er again, "Accompany me into the city tomorrow?" ”

"What can I do with you?" Liu Yue'er asked, "Besides, it's rare for you to go to the city, aren't you going to see Miss Su?" ”

"What's the matter?" Lin Jian asked.

Of course, Liu Yue'er didn't want to meet Su Mei or Xiaoman, each other's identities were inexplicable, and it was not more embarrassing to meet each other.

At this time, he heard the sound of the drum of the message on the side of the prison island, Lin Jian frowned and stood up, and saw that someone on the high wall of the Jiangdao prison was waving the pine resin torch regularly, which was a signal that the prison island had something to ask him to return to the island, Lin Jian wondered in his heart: It's almost midnight, and the prisoners are all in prison, what else can happen on the island?
