Gao Muqing led the way, and everyone walked out of the village gate and walked along the wide stone steps towards the valley. When they came to the stone steps at the edge of Luoyan Valley, everyone let out a sound of exclamation. But they saw a long river winding in the valley,
It traverses the entire Luoyan Valley from north to south. Ditches are crisscrossed, and the rice seedlings are as green as green carpets. Between the fields and ditches, egrets fly, and farmers lead cows and sing in the fields. The breeze blows, refreshing and pleasant, and the seedlings are like waves.
Waves, full of greenery. This is simply a magnificent scene on earth, like a peach garden and a cave in the sky.
"I can't believe that there is such a world hidden in Funiu Mountain. I can't believe it, I can't believe it." Guo Bing murmured with anger.
"My lord, do you know what this place used to be like? There used to be nothing here. This village and the valley were all barren mountains and wilderness. That year I went to the capital to take the Spring Examination and stayed here for a winter. We only used
One winter, a dam was built in the upper reaches to retain water. Then the Luoyan River was dug out by manpower. Drinking water was used to open up wasteland, turning the wasteland into a place with abundant fish and rice. Thinking about the hardships at the beginning, one cannot help but feel
Sad. But looking at the situation in front of me now, I am extremely proud and feel that everything is worth it." Lin Jue said with a smile.
Everyone was silent. Except for Lu Wu who had experienced this, no one in the Lin family knew what Lin Jue did here, including the little princess. Xie Yingying, Qianqian Fang Huanqiu and others knew nothing about it.
I don't know. How could they have imagined that their husbands had done such a big thing secretly?
"If the military advisor doesn't tell me, I have almost forgotten what happened back then. It's really unbearable to think about it. When we came to Funiu Mountain to establish a foothold, there were only more than a hundred people. We were attacked by bandits in Funiu Mountain, and we fought for more than one person in a row.
In the battle of Yue, everyone, including the leader of the village, was covered with scars. No one thought that we could survive. Later, the military advisor came and brought food, weapons, armor and equipment. We gained a firm foothold. Not only did we gain a firm foothold,
, we also destroyed Zuo Zongdao and destroyed all the large and small cottages including Heifeng Village. The military advisor and the village leader just put the situation to the best of their ability, leading to today's situation. All of our village leaders admired the military advisor.
." Liang Qi laughed from the side.
Guo Bing looked at Lin Jue blankly and said, "How many things have you done that we don't know about? Why have I never heard you talk about it?"
Lin Jue smiled and said: "I am an official of the imperial court. Naturally, I do this kind of thing secretly. How can I make it public? Then am I going to be punished? I did it to repay my guilt for the destruction of Dazhai on Guishan Island. Mu Qing
Helped us destroy Taohua Island. Not only did the imperial court fail to fulfill its promise to make Guishan Island a legal place of residence, but it turned its back and took the opportunity to destroy Guishan Island Dazhai. I have an unshirkable responsibility for the destruction of Guishan Island.
.I heard that Mu Qing came to Funiu Mountain with his brothers who broke out of the siege, how could I remain indifferent. I must help them, and this is also a debt I must repay. Speaking of which, Luoyan Valley is what it is today, and it is also due to the palace.
.Hehehe.”
Guo Bing said in astonishment: "Where do you start talking about this?"
Lin Jue looked at Shen Tan and said, "Commander Shen, now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide that matter. I will tell you now."
Shen Tan smiled and said: "I'm afraid that the prince will kill me."
Lin Jue said: "No, thank you, Your Majesty."
It's too late for you. If it weren't for the original decision, how would you have the shelter you have today?"
At that moment, Lin Jue went to find Shen Tan to get equipment. He played a trick of bandits robbing equipment in Qingtai Town, and got a lot of bows, arrows, weapons, armor and equipment, which greatly improved the hard power of the people in Luoyan Valley. , everything that laid the foundation for a series of subsequent victories and a firm foothold was put together. Guo Bing's eyes almost popped out when he heard this. He stared at Shen Tan for a long time, and finally sighed: "Okay, I do. I can't punish you. Firstly, you didn't sell the palace armor privately. Those were just exchanged guard armors and equipment. Secondly, if it hadn't been for that day, how would we be now? It's just that you concealed this matter, and I am really unhappy. I am like an old man. It’s like being confused and being hidden by all of you.”
Shen Tan hurriedly apologized sincerely: "It's really because I can't tell this matter, otherwise it will cause big trouble. I also respect the county horse, and I am very unhappy with the way the imperial court treats Guishan Island. Your Majesty, I forgive you, but if you are punished, Shen Tan will not dare to complain."
Guo Bing waved his hand and said: "What's the punishment? It's all over. Master Gao Dazhao, how many people are there in Luoyan Valley now?"
Gao Muqing saluted and said: "Your Majesty, you don't need to call me the master of the village, just call me Mu Qing. Our Luoyan Valley village now includes one main village and three subsidiary villages. Since the severe drought in the capital the year before last, more and more people have defected to us. The number of soldiers and civilians in the village has increased, and now there are more than 67,000 soldiers and civilians in the village, distributed among the villages. Luoyan Valley is just one of the gathering places. In the areas under the jurisdiction of each village, all the land and valleys that are conducive to farming and living are carried out. In order to cultivate and dig canals to ensure self-sufficiency. In addition to the soldiers and horses of the Luoyan Army, the village also has soldiers and horses from some township regiments to ensure the security of the villages in the valleys on weekdays. In wartime, the number of troops mobilized can reach tens of thousands of people."
Guo Bing clicked his tongue. Under the eyes of the imperial court, unknowingly, there was such a power hidden in Funiu Mountain. There were 60,000 to 70,000 foreigners who were not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. This was simply unimaginable. This also shows how weak the power of the imperial court is now. It is actually unable to destroy these entrenched mountain strongholds, which illustrates this point. However, having said that, if there were no such strongholds, I would be like a bereaved dog today, or I would have died without a burial. Even though his mentality has not changed yet, Guo Bing reminded himself that he must adapt to this change.
Fortunately, this village seems to be controlled by his son-in-law, and Lin Jue's character is not that of a cold-blooded person who would add insult to injury. Although he has not revealed his inner plan, it seems that he will not make any deviant choices.
Everyone walked and talked all the way down to the valley. Along the wide road paved with gravel, everyone passed through the first village. When they arrived at this village, they were given a big surprise to all those who entered the mountain for the first time. Shocked. I thought that the villages in this valley must be dilapidated and the homes of the people must be extremely dirty. However, when they entered the village road, everyone was shocked.
The residence of every household here is a house, which is tall and sturdy. It has three main rooms and several side rooms on both sides as standard, and there are courtyards in the front and back. In the courtyard, flowers, trees and vegetables are planted, and chickens and dogs can hear each other, and the flowers are blooming. Jin. There is no trace of dirt on the roads in the village. There are high poles erected at intervals along the road, with wind lanterns hanging on them. There are also a few covered lanterns next to each house on the roadside.
The things in my son’s chest.
Gao Muqing said that the wind lanterns on the high poles are street lamps, which are lit at night and make the roads in the village look like markets. The boxes on the roadside are called trash cans. Every household's garbage is put into the boxes, and special personnel come to clean it up.
, pulled to the southern valley, burned and landfilled.
There are various shops along the main street in the village. There is a tinkling sound in the blacksmith shop, and people come and go in the grocery store. The wine flags in the tavern are hanging on the treetops. There are people talking, laughing and drinking in the tavern. It is very comfortable. What is here?
The village in the mountains is completely a street market town. Although it is not large in scale, it is clearly orderly.
Other measures include security booths in the village, free stagecoach rides, and free carriages and horses along the entire Luoyan Valley road. There are also water towers built in the village, and water flows into every household.
When Gao Muqing told them one by one, everyone was dumbfounded.
The shock in the hearts of everyone was unparalleled, even more shocking than when they saw the scale of Dazhai in Dazhai. Guo Bing was not an ignorant person. He knew that it was these small and trivial things that truly reflected the beauty of this village.
It is in good order. This shows that the management of this village is not inferior to the management of the market in the imperial court, but even better. This requires a set of meticulous methods to achieve such an effect. The person who formulated this method must be exhausted
I have invested a lot of energy in my heart and understand many key points. This is something that capable people can do, and it is not something that ordinary people can do.
When he learned that these things were proposed by Lin Jue and implemented by Gao Muqing one by one, Guo Bing was relieved. Who else could it be but Lin Jue? Who else could have such means except him? In this place in the mountains,
In fact, it was a place where Lin Jue realized his ideas. When he suffered setbacks in the court, Lin Jue probably put a lot of thought into this cottage. No wonder Lin Jue always looked indifferent.
With his attitude, he had already prepared a way out for himself. This cottage was his way out. This was a plan for a rainy day.
The shock continued, and everyone walked all the way north, along the embankment on the bank of the wide Luoyan River, and passed through several villages. Every village was so clean, tidy, and in order. There was no sallow complexion on the faces of the people, and every one of them
Their faces were rosy and they were smiling from the bottom of their hearts. Books were being read in the school, and the children did not want to be as unkempt and disheveled as the children in the villages outside. Although the clothes of the people here were not gorgeous, it could be seen that they were all knitted by themselves.
The clothes are made of dyed cloth, but the spirit is very good.
Everyone discovered more novelties. They actually discovered that there was a brothel and a singing shop, and they discovered a neon clothing shop. At the intersection of Beicun, they actually saw the sign of the Jiangnan Grand Theater. There was a big sign at the door,
The play and the names of the actors were written on it. Guo Bing was shocked to see two familiar names on it: Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan.
Guo Bing was really shocked. Lin Jue had done so many things that he didn't know. Everything here was like a dream. Many things were beyond his expectation and beyond his imagination. This was the first time that Guo Bing completely
Some people think that Lin Jue is an unfathomable person. This person is so powerful and surprising.
Fortunately, he is his son-in-law and one of his own.
