Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

Chapter 280: Leave a good impression

Huang Yifu's face was pale. Yang Zhengshan just casually fired a shot and broke several of his ribs. At this time, his waist and abdomen were in great pain, as if a funnel had drained all his strength.

"General Yang, please forgive me for the sake of Xingyuemen!"

What else could Huang Yifu say? At this time, the only thing he could do was to beg for mercy, and he could only rely on Xingyuemen.

"Forgive!"

Yang Zhengshan sneered.

Whether to forgive or not depends not on the face of Xingyuemen, but on what these people did.

In his eyes, Xingyuemen has no face to speak of.

He didn't say anything more, but sat on the chair carelessly.

The chair was very wide, with a layer of sheepskin, and it was very comfortable to sit on.

He reached out and took the wine jar next to him, smelled the wine inside, and then put it down with disgust.

This bandit's life seems to be very bad!

The wine should be relatively cheap.

Drinking big bowls of wine and eating big bowls of meat sounds very happy, but in fact, if you think about it, you will understand how happy life can be in this mountain forest.

Who would go to the mountains to be a bandit?

Only those who have committed crimes and can't make a living would go to the mountains to be bandits.

Yang Zhengshan didn't speak, and no one in the hall dared to speak. For a while, the hall was silent, while the shouting and killing outside the hall continued, and screams came one after another.

However, the shouting and killing outside the hall did not last long, but it subsided in a quarter of an hour.

Song Dashan walked into the hall with a dragon-like tiger step, "Report to the general, all the bandits outside have been killed, and the cotton cloth and carriages have all been found!"

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, "Lin Xiaoyun, let's go!"

As he said that, he walked out of the hall. The confused Lin Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed his footsteps.

"It's boring, just kill them all!" Yang Zhengshan threw a word and left the hall.

Then, there was a sound of fighting and screaming in the hall.

When the fighting in the hall stopped, there were no more bandits alive in the whole mountain stronghold.

The rest was to clean up the battlefield, but Yang Zhengshan didn't need to worry about it, the soldiers were very familiar with cleaning up the battlefield.

These soldiers had all followed Yang Zhengshan in the north, and they had cleaned up the battlefield countless times.

Yang Zhengshan sat on a rock a little bored, and the warm sunshine sprinkled on him, making him feel a little sleepy.

He had great expectations before coming, but it ended like this, which was really meaningless.

If he had known this, he might as well not come, and let Song Dashan bring people over.

"Sir, we found a lot of women in the back! They were all kidnapped by bandits!" Song Dashan ran over to report again.

"Ask them if they are willing to go home. If they are willing, we can send them to the nearest county town later." Yang Zhengshan said.

"Well, they don't want to! They have lost their reputation! Some of them even want to commit suicide! I asked my brothers to stop them!" Song Dashan whispered.

Yang Zhengshan had a headache. This matter is really difficult to deal with.

Women who have lost their reputation will have a difficult life in the future.

Even if they go home, the situation is still difficult, but if they are not allowed to go home, should they be taken back to Tenglongwei?

Yang Zhengshan thought about it and it seemed that it was not impossible to take them back to Tenglongwei!

"How many are there?"

"More than 30 people!"

"Then take them all back!"

It is definitely not okay to ignore them. Taking them back to Tenglongwei can at least find some work for them. Apart from other things, it is still no problem to keep them well fed and clothed.

And in Tenglongwei, they can also be criticized less. Maybe after a while, they can get married and have a home.

"Thank you, General, for taking them in!"

As soon as Yang Zhengshan finished speaking, Lin Xiaoyun, who had been standing next to him, knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

After the panic, Lin Xiaoyun calmed down at this time, her reason was restored, her mind turned, she knew very well what would happen to her after she returned home.

Her relatives would despise her, her neighbors would spit on her, some people with bad intentions would entangle her, and all kinds of rumors and abuse would be around her.

So she didn't want to go back, she would rather die than go back.

Yang Zhengshan was willing to take her in, that was her last hope.

"Get up! Live a good life in the future, don't feel sorry for yourself because of this!"

Yang Zhengshan was still full of tenderness for these women.

They did nothing wrong, they were just targeted by the malice of this world.

Yang Zhengshan didn't think he was a savior, but since he met him, he was willing to help, which was not a difficult task for him.

"Tell the brothers not to talk nonsense after they go back, no matter how others ask, they can't explain it clearly!"

Yang Zhengshan instructed Song Dashan.

Any explanation is useless, so many women going to Tenglongwei alone will definitely cause some criticism.

It is better not to explain such things. Not explaining is his attitude. It won't take long for everyone to understand what he means, and the matter will be over.

"Yes!" Song Dashan responded.

"Go and help appease those women!" Yang Zhengshan said to Lin Xiaoyun again.

"Yes!"

Lin Xiaoyun, who calmed down, was still very smart. She immediately understood what Yang Zhengshan meant.

Soldiers are definitely not good at appeasing those injured women, and Lin Xiaoyun is undoubtedly the most suitable person here.

Yang Zhengshan also let her go because he saw that she was smart.

About two quarters of an hour later, Lin Xiaoyun led a group of neatly dressed women to Yang Zhengshan to thank him.

Yang Zhengshan simply comforted them with a few words and asked them to wait for the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and return to Tenglongwei together.

It was useless to say too much. The injuries they suffered could only be healed with the passage of time. Yang Zhengshan could not make them forget this painful memory by saying a few words.

The soldiers quickly loaded the cotton cloth robbed by the bandits onto the car.

Fortunately, these carriages and cotton cloth were just robbed by the bandits not long ago, and the bandits had not had time to deal with them.

In addition to the horse farm and cotton cloth, the bandits' savings also became the spoils of war of Yang Zhengshan and his men.

This group of bandits was still very poor. They only had a few thousand taels of silver. In addition to silver, they also saved a lot of necessities such as food and wine.

The quantity was not large, but it was impossible to take all of them away in one trip, so Yang Zhengshan first took most of the soldiers down the mountain and asked Song Dashan to stay here for one night, and then send someone to transport the remaining things tomorrow.

It was more than a hundred miles away, and it was late at night when Yang Zhengshan returned to the Acropolis, but he had already sent someone back on horseback to arrange the accommodation for Lin Xiaoyun and other women.

Although time was a bit tight, these women finally had a place to stay.

The next day, Yang Zhengshan sent more than a hundred soldiers to bring back the remaining things from Qingfu Mountain.

The money and food were not much, but they were worth several thousand taels of silver. Yang Zhengshan was not so extravagant as to ignore several thousand taels of silver.

In the morning, Yang Zhengshan called Wu Zhan to the study.

"Go to Jing'an City and ask the Wang family to come and take the silver away!"

"Master, we still have to give silver!" Wu Zhan asked in surprise.

The cotton cloth of the Wang family was robbed by the bandits, and they took it back from the bandits. According to the rules of the underworld, these cotton cloths have nothing to do with the Wang family.

According to the rules of the officialdom, Yang Zhengshan, the commander of the Tenglong Guard, has no responsibility to eliminate bandits.

So even if they don't pay, the Wang family has nothing to say.

"Not only do you have to pay, but you have to pay every penny!"

"In the future, we will need the help of merchants in many places. It's just the right opportunity to gain a good reputation and make a good impression on the merchants in Jing'an City. When we need it in the future, we will go to them again, and they will be more willing to help us!"

Yang Zhengshan explained.

Tenglong Guard is not Anyuan City.

Tenglong Guard is located in a relatively remote location, in the southeast of Qinghua Prefecture, more than 200 miles away from Qinghua Prefecture City, and more than 200 miles away from Jing'an Prefecture City. There are no large cities around except for a few small county towns.

And Weicheng is just a small city. If it develops business, it will at most radiate the surrounding Qianhu Suo.

In terms of business potential, it may not be as good as those county towns.

If Yang Zhengshan wants to develop the business of Weicheng in the future, he must rely on the support of businessmen.

The Luo family is definitely his first choice, but it is not enough to rely on the Luo family alone. He needs more businessmen to come and invest.

That's right, it is to attract investment!

Now sell a favor first, and ask them for help when they need it in the future. Can they still refuse?

Besides, this batch of cotton cloth originally belonged to the Wang family, but it was just transferred in the hands of the bandits. Yang Zhengshan didn't need to ruin his reputation for a few thousand taels of silver.

Wu Zhan didn't quite understand Yang Zhengshan's plan, but since Yang Zhengshan ordered it, he just executed it.

After Wu Zhan left, Yang Zhengshan called Lu Wenhua over again.

"Have those women been arranged?"

"It has been arranged. They are now living in Nanyuan. Food and cotton cloth were prepared for them last night. I went to see them just now. They are still safe!" Lu Wenhua said.

Nanyuan was originally where the servants of the Lan family lived. Now the servants of the Lan family have become military households, so there are many empty houses there.

"Arrange some needlework for them, well, don't let them idle!"

Yang Zhengshan is not Zhou Ba Pi, nor does he want to exploit these poor women.

It's just that people tend to think too much when they are idle, but they don't think too much when they are busy.

There is still a lot of needlework in the yamen. The clothes of his entourage and the soldiers who came with him need help.

You can't let these rough men thread the needle.

Before, it was all done by the embroidery workshop of the Yang family. For this reason, Li also specially increased the staff of the embroidery workshop, but it was still a bit too busy.

Now with these women, it can make the embroiderers in the embroidery workshop of the Yang family a little easier.

"Yes!"

Lu Wenhua asked again: "Sir, is there anything else?"

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and thought for a while, and said: "Do you want to go back to Anning County this year?"

Lu Wenhua has been with him for several years.

There are fewer things to do in the government this year, so Lu Wenhua can take some time to go back and stay at home for a few more days.

Lu Wenhua was stunned. He didn't expect Yang Zhengshan to suddenly change the topic to private matters.

"How about I go back and take a look?"

"Well, it's good to go back and take a look. Wenyuan will enter the spring examination in Beijing next year. You and Mingcheng go back and ask the old man's opinion. If necessary, let Mingcheng and Wenyuan go to Beijing."

"I asked someone to buy a house in Beijing before, so they don't have to worry about having no place to live when they go to Beijing."

"If they encounter trouble in Beijing, I have some connections in Beijing, and Mingcheng knows them. He can help avoid some trouble!"

Yang Zhengshan said.

Da Rong's Spring Examination is in March. If Lu Wenyuan participates in the Spring Examination next year, he should leave for Beijing after the New Year.

The journey is long, and no one can predict what accidents will happen, so it is necessary to arrange for someone to escort him.

If he is a poor disciple, he can only bring a book boy and follow the caravan or travel with classmates.

The Lu family is also a poor family, but the Lu family has the Yang family as a marriage. If the Lu family does not have it, the Yang family should help.

"Then I would like to thank my uncle for my younger brother!" Lu Wenhua showed a bright smile.

Yang Zhengshan's attention and care for Lu Wenyuan made him happy, and also made him understand the meaning of family.
