In the evening, Yang Shanlu bought some chickens and ducks and celebrated with the brothers. When the wine was hot, everyone talked about one thing... Tomorrow Yang Shanlu will go to Zhenkoubao for a banquet, and he will probably be mentioned. Specific job title.
Because this time the title of Hundred Households only represents the rank of officials, and the specific ambassadors have not been assigned yet. According to the usual practice, the official title of Hundred Households can be used as team officers and manage a large fort, just like Xu Shicheng's.
Only this time, there was only a reward, without explaining the specific messenger! This made Chen Wu and others very anxious.
Although they also know that there are few real power positions at the moment, it is impossible to let a dignified family hang like this... Or manage this small fire road pier? In this way they are even more unborn!
As for Yang Shanlu, he also knows these things. These days, he has already learned about the surrounding military fortresses. In general, there are too many staff and people are overwhelmed.
For example, there are 4 big forts that can be arranged for him, but there are 14 hundred households in these four big forts! In other words, there are already 10 idle households! Not to mention that he was just appointed like this.
So how to arrange him in this way is indeed a problem...
But even so, Yang Shanlu is still very calm... because he already has an idea.
If he was just an ordinary person, it would be difficult to break the game, but for a traveler, he has done a lot of research on the local conditions, but it is not a problem.
In the morning of the next day, after Yang Shanlu put on a brand-new Baihu official gown, he set off with Liu Dabangma.
Zhenkou Fort is not very far from Pingludun, but its area is much larger than Pingludun. The perimeter of the entire military fort is one and three minutes, the city is three feet and five feet high, and more than 1,000 soldiers and civilians are stationed.
After the two arrived, they entered from the Yongsheng Gate to the south, and the border guards saw two senior officials coming. Yang Shanlu put a handful of copper coins again, so he put them in very enthusiastically.
After the two arrived at the Qianhu official hall in the fort, the front guard immediately went to inform them, and then Yang Shanlu was invited into the chamber.
After entering, Yang Shanlu saw that his old acquaintance Xu Shicheng was also there. Besides, Chen An, who came to present the award yesterday, was also there.
However, both of them are in the second seat, and one person sits high on the main seat of the chamber—it is also the master of this room, Yu Zhenlong.
Yu Zhenlong served as the defender of Zhenkoubao as a Zhengqian household. He was already a standard military attache, but he looked fair and elegant, and did not look like a military attache, but a literati.
And when he saw Yang Shanlu coming in, Yu Zhenlong had already stood up with a smile: "This young hero, that is to say that he is a humble brother Yang Shanlu Yang who dare not forget about his country?"
"I dare not dare, the next official has seen an adult—" Yang Shanlu hurriedly gave a salute, and Yu Zhenlong just laughed, enthusiastically helped him up, and personally led him to the seat, appearing very enthusiastic.
Yang Shanlu was a little surprised when he saw it... It was only the first time that he and this defensive officer met, so they were so enthusiastic
Xu Shicheng and Yu Zhenlong are familiar with each other. Seeing Yang Shanlu's surprise, he smiled and said, "Haha, brother Yang doesn't know, the defensive officer has also been promoted this time! It's already the commander of the town guard! Still managing Zhenkou Fort, and if there is a chance in the future, further progress is just around the corner!"
"It turned out to be like this!" Yang Shanlu realized that... it turned out to be taking up his light.
Hearing Xu Shicheng mentioning his pride, Yu Zhenlong said modestly: "Hehe, it's just a slight promotion, it must not be a thing, it must not be a thing!"
It’s just that despite what he said, the joy in his eyes couldn’t be concealed. Originally, he was sitting in the position of the defensive officer, and he was worried about being peeped, but now... One, haha!
After such a self-effacement, he looked at Yang Shanlu with more affectionate eyes... After all, this was all his light.
Then after everyone had a conversation, they began to sit in, and after taking the table, Xu Shicheng was also very enthusiastic about Yang Shanlu.
You must know that he was also not small this time. Originally, he was appointed as the officer of Chang'an Fort as a hundred households. This time, because of his merits, he was also promoted to the next level and served as deputy Qianhu's officer. , So how can you not be happy in this way.
In addition, Chen An, who is accompanying him, also has a good impression of Yang Shanlu... He is the leader of Yu Zhenlong's family. Now that Yu Zhenlong's status has been improved, can he not follow the trend and rise
So after the banquet was opened like this, it was a mass of harmony, and all kinds of delicious food continued, including even the watermelon that is hard to eat at this time. Obviously, it was a lot of thought.
After drinking three rounds of dishes and five flavors, the conversation began to get into the main topic.
Because Yu Zhenlong looked at Yang Shanlu pleasingly, he stopped going around in circles, and said frankly and honestly: "Brother Yang, according to the rewards above, you are asked to be a team officer and manage a big fort.
But those officials above only know how to move their mouths, but how do they understand the difficulties below! Now those big castles are full of people! Four or five hundred households in a fort are not uncommon!
But this time you did a great job! How to arrange you is really embarrassing to the official, so I invite you to come over this time, and I want to hear your opinion. "
And the appearance of Yang Shanlu seeing him does not seem to be fake, it seems to be a problem indeed, but Yang Shanlu has already been prepared, just calmly said: "Dare to ask my lord, in these big castles you said , Does not include Xiaoqiangbao? There are no hundreds of households in Xiaoqiangbao, right?"
Yu Zhenlong was taken aback when he asked: "This is not one of them. What are you asking for?"
Unexpectedly, what Yang Shanlu said next made him even more surprised: "If this is the case, I am not an official, and I am willing to go to Xiaoqiangbao."
"What?" Yu Zhenlong was completely stunned, and even blinked at Yang Shanlu, as if he didn't know him!
Even Xu Shicheng, who was sitting next to Yang Shanlu, quickly pulled his sleeve slightly to signal him to change his mouth quickly.
After all, what place is Xiaoqiangbao? You can't go to death!
That's right, there is indeed a large fort of one hundred households, but the subordinate farms are all saline-alkali land! No harvest all year round! Can you go to that kind of ghost place
You must know that for team officers like them, Tuntian is the biggest gainer! With their right to actually manage a large fort, they can invade a large farmland! But now... to occupy the saline-alkali land without any output? Don't give it away for free!
But despite this, Yang Shanlu remained unmoved, just waiting for Yu Zhenlong to express his opinion.
Seeing Yang Shanlu's serious appearance, unlike joking, Yu Zhenlong coughed: "Brother Yang, if you think about it, you can't move it anymore after you have arranged it! Although it is really difficult now, you are in the country. How can I not arrange you to go to Xiaoqiangbao! If you try to squeeze, you can still squeeze out the position of a team officer."
And Yang Shanlu smiled when he heard it, even if it was, he wouldn't do it.
Rather than squeeze in and deal with intricate interpersonal relationships every day, it is better to go to the Xiaoqiangbao like a piece of white paper! Create a new world!
That's right, there is indeed a barren land, and everyone avoids it like a snake and scorpion, but for him, a traveler, who has mastered the technology of later generations for nearly four hundred years, it is a treasure!
So Yang Shanlu calmly said: "My defensive officer, I'm not kidding, I'm really willing to go to Xiaoqiangbao."
"What?" Yu Zhenlong's expression became serious now: "Are you really willing to go to the post? But you have to know that Xiao Qiangbao can't even complete the basic farming of crops every year, even if there is a team officer who goes to work, Every military and political examination was incompetent, and was finally demoted! So you still have to pass?"
"My defensive officer, I know all this, but the reason why I dare to pass is because I can make a promise that I can manage those saline-alkali soils well, and I will pay them as usual in the future!" Yang Shanlu said with confidence.
"What?" Yu Zhenlong's surprised eyes widened... Can the saline-alkali land be treated well? I have never heard of it!
Take another ten thousand steps and say, even if it can be managed well, how much money will it cost? After finally becoming an official, still have to lose money
It was just that Yang Shanlu said that he could pay the grains as usual in the future, but Yu Zhenlong was a little moved. After all, after his promotion, his heart became alive and he began to take aim at higher positions.
It’s just that military merits like this time are not common, so what should I do? The imperial court’s assessment of garrison military attaches focused on collecting food from the village, so he could only work hard from the usual payment of grains.
If Yang Shanlu can really turn Xiaoqiangbao's large saline-alkali land into good land, then the help of paying him every year would be great!
Yu Zhenlong glanced at Yang Shanlu again and saw that he was serious, not joking, he just chuckled softly: "In that case, I promise you! And you already belong to the reclaimed wasteland. According to the rules, you can be exempted from levy within 3 years .
Now that you have the courage to do things, I will call the shots. As long as you can cultivate those saline soils, the court will not levy a grain of grain from you in three years, and you will start the levy in three years! "
"Then thank you sir." Yang Shanlu was very happy, but he didn't expect to be able to enjoy this preferential policy. This was a surprise.
And seeing that it's really settled down, Xu Shicheng and Chen An on the side are all sweating for Yang Shanlu... Can the saline land be treated? They really want to wait and see.
