Chapter 420 Taking Over Military Power

Seventh Institute of Technology

Lin Ye and Bi Shaoning, as the first two disciples of Master Zhan, felt a little dizzy when they saw the silver, medicinal herbs, winter clothes and other things they got at their feet.

What did Madam Qin Liu say just now? These are all dividends for their master and senior brothers? So the things they made are so valuable?

The junior brothers called her Lu Erjie, and the two felt that they were older than her and it was not good to call her that, so they followed everyone to call Madam Qin Liu.

Lv Mingzhi, Wei Wenqian, Zhou Congguang and others didn't care about the confused senior and second senior brothers. Even though they had experienced it once, they still felt a little shocked when they experienced it again.

"Why did you get so much silver this time?" Sheng Peiguang couldn't believe it.

This time, like the master, he got 3,000 taels of silver, the most among all the brothers.

Lu Songli explained, "The glass products you made before are very versatile and have been applied to the brewing process."

With his help, the glass workshop made a set of distillation equipment. This set of distillation equipment was sent to the brewery, and they made high-proof liquor. These liquors were turned into high-end luxury goods by Wu Renyun in Nanyang, and they are really hard to find.

In addition, the glass workshop has begun to create some exquisite utensils and prepare to promote them in the aristocratic circle next year.

Lu Songli looked at Zhan Ruoshui, "The several cleaning lotions developed by Master Zhan are also selling well."

It can be said that these lotions are deeply loved by the majority of women. Because there are low, medium and high-end ones, almost all women from noble ladies to ordinary women are caught in one net. Liaodong Chamber of Commerce made a lot of money by wholesale these lotions.

"Oh." Zhan Ruoshui had a wooden expression and looked calm on the surface, but when he walked, his steps were a little floating.

Sheng Peiguang asked Lv Songli, "What about colored glass? I've been studying it recently. Is there any use for it?"

"Colored glass? It must be useful. Study it well."

"Okay!"

Lv Songli encouraged these precious researchers and then went to his yard with Lv Mingzhi.

"Second sister, Sun Congyi wrote me a letter." Lv Mingzhi went into the house and took out the letter. The whole letter was in an unopened state.

Previously, Lv Songli speculated that the Xie family had a hidden force in the Southern Expedition Army. At that time, she locked on several outstanding generals with the surname Xie in the Southern Expedition Army and wanted the Sun family to help investigate.

The Sun family has been in the army for generations and guarded the southern border. It is considered one of the three major forces in the Southern Expedition Army.

So she asked Lv Mingzhi to write a letter to Sun Congyi of the Sun family.

Of course, it takes time to investigate people. What's more, there are several people with the surname Xie in the list she asked to investigate.

Therefore, it took Sun Congyi so long to reply after receiving Lv Mingzhi's letter.

The Sun family helped to check the people that the Lu family wanted to check in the letter, and all the information they found was written in the letter.

Lu Songli took the letter, opened it, and read it at a glance.

Her eyes immediately fell on the name of Xie Wei, whose appearance was burned by fire. Is it such a coincidence?

At this time, Hongluo came in and reminded her that it was time to leave. She had something else to do next.

Lu Songli put away the letter and planned to study it later.

When she left, she told Lu Mingzhi, "Take some time to come home. Mother is looking for a girl for you. Pay more attention to your own affairs. After all, the wife is found for you. Don't you want to find a wife who suits your heart?"

Lu Mingzhi's face turned red. He hummed and agreed.

Liaodong County Governor's Office

All prefectures, departments, and districts have also begun to distribute winter clothes. Public officials can get one, and members of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce can also get one.

Most of these vests are made in one size, a small part is made in small sizes, and even fewer are made in large sizes.

People these days are not fat, and they save a lot of material.

The two governors of Xuantu County and Lelang County, Wu Chi and Lei Xin, came, and they brought their own county lieutenants.

Several people entered the government office and sat in the tea room, waiting for the summons from the governor.

When they came, they happened to encounter the distribution of winter clothes.

The top leaders of each prefecture, department and district in Liaodong County came to the government office to approve the notes. After getting the approval notes, they went to the clothing workshop and could pick up the goods from the warehouse.

In this way, the staff of each department were busy in and out.

Through the open door, watching this lively scene, Wu Chi, Lei Xin and others were very envious.

"I just heard them say that this batch of winter clothes, each Liaodong soldier has one." The speaker was Hao Youwei, the county lieutenant of Xuantu County, who had the best ears.

Lu Yiyang, the lieutenant of Lelang County, answered, "How many soldiers are there in the Liaodong Army now?"

Hao Youwei hesitated a little and said, "The soldiers in service should be full."

Lu Yiyang understood, full strength means 8,000. Unlike their Xuantu County and Lelang County, there are only about 4,000 soldiers in service.

After they finished speaking, Wu Chi said, "Not only that, but all officials in various prefectures, departments and districts in Liaodong County will also be issued."

Lei Xin calculated the approximate number of people and stuttered, "This-this-how many winter clothes should be issued? No, why is there so much winter clothes in Liaodong County? Is it the court-"

Wu Chi shook his head, "We have been in office for more than one or two years. Have you ever seen the court issue winter clothes?"

Lei Xin was a little disappointed when he heard this, "This is not the first year of the new emperor's accession to the throne-" It would be great if it was issued by the court, they should be able to get some.

Wu Chi looked around and said in a low voice, "I heard that this batch of winter clothes was obtained by the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce." He was more informed.

The other three heard this and said, "Oh, that famous Liaodong Chamber of Commerce."

This Liaodong Chamber of Commerce is very powerful, and it's nothing to get this batch of winter clothes.

"I don't care where this batch of winter clothes comes from, I just want to know if our Xuantu County soldiers have a share?" At this time, Hao Youwei was anxious.

They also have garrisons in the Xuantu Army, with 4,000 garrisons.

The four looked at each other, didn't say anything, but sighed. They also want it, but it is very likely that they won't have a share.

Not long after, Lu Desheng was free, and the four were invited over.

Looking at Lu Desheng sitting at the top, the four stepped forward to salute.

Lu Desheng smiled and stepped forward to help Wu Chi and Lei Xin, "No need to be polite, Brother Wu and Brother Lei, you are too polite, come on, everyone sit down, sit down."

After the two sat down, they looked at each other and were quite amazed at the current situation. Who would have thought that more than a month ago, they were both county governors, and more than a month later, the other party became their superior? And within this year, Lv Desheng has jumped two levels, right?

But think about the Liaodong County under his rule, and the counties under his rule. In just one year, Liaodong County is no longer the same, and there is no comparison.

Wu Chi spoke first, and he mentioned the Liaodong Army going to Xuantu County to suppress bandits. He said that they wanted to help, but before they could help, it was over, and all the bandit leaders in Xuantu County were caught by the Liaodong Army.

He mentioned this matter as a statement.

Hao Youwei, the county lieutenant of Xuantu County, echoed on the side, looking weak, pitiful and helpless.

Lv Desheng didn't know what to say about this matter, he just nodded at them, "Soldiers can't slack off."

"Yes-yes--"

Then Lv Desheng mentioned that he was going to send a group of craftsmen and folk craftsmen to the two counties to help the people build kangs, hoping that they could cooperate.

Wu Chi and Lei Xin, the two county governors, agreed.

After talking about this matter, Lv Desheng asked them, "By the way, how many people did you bring when you came?"

The two were a little confused about this question.

They didn't bring many people. They were summoned this time, how dare they bring too many people?

Besides, whether it is Liaodong County, Xuantu County, or Donglang County, the banditry in the territory has been cleared, and there is no need to bring too many people when traveling.

"How about this, you report to me the number of people in the military camp and each government office. I will send a team of people to go back with you, and send you winter clothes by the way."

Wu Chi, Lei Xin and others were stunned, and then overjoyed.

"Sir Governor, do you mean that we also have a share of this batch of winter clothes?" Wu Chi even breathed softly when he spoke.

"You have a share, but--"

"Whatever the governor asks, just tell me." They agreed to all the conditions!

"I plan to let Le Guicai, the military commander, lead people to the Xuantu County military camp to rectify the military appearance and discipline. You need to cooperate." Lu Desheng planned to let the Qin brothers follow Le Guicai.

Wu Chi and Lei Xin looked at each other and nodded repeatedly, "Of course, of course." The governor should have taken over the military power of the two counties.

But the two felt that sometimes it was necessary to be confused, and the governor had the power to rectify military affairs.
