Even though he was busy, Mu Yunyao still had the idea of ​​competing with Yan Ruoran. One day in April, Yan Ruoran brought some fresh fruits to their house and chatted for a few casual words. When the servants left, Mu Yunyao took a few combined notices and said that she was asking Yan Ruoran for his opinion.

Yan Ruoran glanced a few times and said with a smile that he had been resting in the inner house for the past few years and did not know much about the outside world. Now he was in charge of the inner house affairs and had no time to pay attention to it. Mu Yunyao was just a half-joking attitude, and no one took it seriously after laughing.

However, before leaving, Yan Ruoran made some comments to Mu Yunyao's three girls in a quiet voice, saying that it was complicated in the house and it was not convenient to do things. It was better to divide it into details according to the time and make annotations. It would be convenient to find it in this way. Mu Yunyao was stunned.

On the third day, Guo Dong's wife directed her servants to transport several cabinets like medicine cabinets into the house where Mu Yunyao and the others worked. As a result, Mu Yunyao and the others classified documents according to Yan Ruoran's method, marked the details, and divided them into the cabinets according to Yan Ruoran's method.

After sorting it out, the excerpts and analysis work suddenly became much more efficient. Mu Yunyao was extremely respectful and then remembered that Yan Ruoran was the magistrate of the prefect, and he was the family of the front-line officials. He had a lot of knowledge and was much more proficient in such documents than them.

The order of the inner house actually did not change much, but the order of various things happened was determined in the order of Yan Ruoran, Mu Yunyao, Gu Hengbo, and Liu Rushi.

And before we knew it, a completely female secretary team formed in Li Meng's inner house, led by Mu Yunyao, assisted by Gu Hengbo and Liu Rushi, and the basic maids who knew the words were the main body. Yan Ruoran's figure also appeared and appeared in it.

Although it is just sorting out information, summarizing data, and analyzing the current situation, compared with Zhou Yang and Ning Qiangui, who are alone, this place is more systematic, with the meaning of Jiaozhou Civil Affairs Center. Of course, this is also a helpless move. In Li Meng's hands, these girls are the ones with the highest level of education, and they are completely from his inner house, so they are extremely relieved to use.

The entire Dengzhou Prefecture, the Yimeng Mountains in Qingzhou Prefecture, and the waterways in Yanzhou Prefecture are all places where there are many bandits and horses. In the past, Li Meng was weak and needed these people to help and maintain them, so that they could also share the benefits on the salt road.

But now Li Meng’s Jiaozhou Camp is legally stationed in these places and is already his own territory, so it cannot be tolerated.

Li Meng issued a statement in succession, saying that he ordered bandits from all over the country to disband within one month and sent people to report to the garrison offices in various places. If anyone is willing to join the army, the Jiaozhou Camp will strictly select and accept them in accordance with the regulations. As for the elderly and weak, they can go to the military farm, and there will naturally be someone responsible for the resettlement.

As soon as this notice was issued, except for the gentry and landlords who knew the Jiaozhou camp's strong background, the common people, scholars and powerful people, and even local officials, they were waiting to see Li Meng's jokes, thinking that the court would invite peace, but now they would speak up in a good voice and make various conditions. They did not see Zhang Xianzhong being surrendered, and they were all entrenched in Gucheng, and they did not obey the imperial orders at all. The court would also allocate money, grain and land.

You simply send a statement saying that you will come to surrender regularly, and there are two ways out, either to farm farms or join the army. Those bandits and robbers are used to lawlessness, who will listen to your arrangements?

Who would have thought that the announcement had only been issued for seven days, and what happened made these people who were waiting to see the jokes dumbfounded. Many of them had been entrenched for many years and had famous villages, rampant in some places, making the common people scared, and the huge thief who sat on the ground to collect money on the water. They all hid on the islands deep in Weishan Lake. They were not afraid of government investigations and were always extremely arrogant characters.

These lawless murderers came out of their hiding place and rushed to the location designated by Jiaozhou Camp for fear of delay.

If many bandit leaders have some of the money they have accumulated, they usually move to Jining Prefecture and Jiaozhou to live. Their subordinates are arranged to settle in the fields where they farm. Of course, some suitable for military soldiers and spies are all transferred by Li Meng's departments.

Over the years, the bandits in Qingzhou Prefecture and Dengzhou Prefecture have been trembling. Li Meng's Jiaozhou Camp is different from ordinary officers and soldiers. Even if there is no order to suppress bandits on the top, Jiaozhou Camp will take the initiative to come to practice. Many villages are defeated for this reason.

At first, everyone didn't know the reason, but they all paid for bribes but were rejected. They asked those acquaintances who had been bandits and now served in Jiaozhou Camp, and only then did they know that there was a name in Jiaozhou Camp, called "War instead of training".

The combat effectiveness of the bandits is much worse than that of the Jiaozhou Camp. In this low-intensity battle, the purpose of training the team is indeed a very good method for the Jiaozhou Camp, which has many new recruits and few combat opportunities. In the past or two years, those who are disobedient have been wiped out.

The rest are all living carefully, and they have made some profits in the private salt sales business. Among the relatively large-scale village teams, the young and strong backbone were absorbed by the generous conditions of Jiaozhou Camp, and many nails were buried around them. There were several villages in the Yimeng Mountains and Weishan Lake areas that once had a few villages that held their own terrain. They thought it would be better to have a life without a royal law in a few years and would not accept Li Meng's control.

But within two or three days, there were rumors that the village was in a frenzy, and the second or third leader killed all the leaders in front, led his subordinates to break up or go to Jiaozhou camp. It turned out that the village had been penetrated by the private salt transactions of Jiaozhou camp.

There is such an example in front of you. Anyone who thinks he is tough feels chill. Who knows if there are spies and spies who have been infiltrated by Jiaozhou Camp?

Liu Zeqing dominated Yanzhou for so many years and thought he had run like an iron bucket, but wasn’t the city gate of Caozhou also opened? Why should we be the one who has hundreds, one thousand people? The rich took the money to Jiningzhou and Jiaozhou to be rich, and the poor led his men to farm in the fields and farms, which was also considered a good citizen.

Some bandit leaders were also very supportive of Jiaozhou's actions. Gathering crowds on the mountain to make money is one aspect, and their subordinates must settle down. If they make enough money, they want to stop doing it. Then the first person to kill people will be their subordinates. With this opportunity now, it can be considered as an explanation and placement for their subordinates. Finally, everyone is happy.

Not to mention those who are ambitious and feel that they have some skills and want to do a career, this announcement is even more in line with their preferences.

In June of the 11th year of Chongzhen, the four prefectures of Yan, Qing, Deng and Lai suddenly became peaceful. If it were not for the year of a major disaster, it would almost make people think it was a peaceful and prosperous era. Of course, it was normal for people to change in the year of a major disaster. The Shandong territory was so peaceful and safe, which made people feel strange.

A literati mentioned this in his notes: "The county is uneasy, and there are no one on the streets in the city in the afternoon, and I am afraid that the bandits will hurt people. By June, the place will suddenly calm down and the door will not be closed at night. Everyone is frightened and uneasy, and there is a god."

This rectification did not disturb anything in the local area. However, there seemed to be a strong wind blowing on the Green Forest River and Lake Road, and some were reluctant to come out in the deep mountains and forests. However, even those things would not have any impact on the local area, and they had nothing to do with it.

There were several villages in Dengzhou, which were composed of scattered soldiers who had put down the rebellion and defeated. They were more capable of fighting and combative. They did not obey orders and were easily defeated by the troops led by Zhao Neng, and there was no major conflict left.

The military farming policy conquers refugees, recruits and prosecutors to gather bandits, and organizes a village guard team to maintain local public order. After Li Meng obtained the power to guard the four prefectures, he quickly cleared up all kinds of uneasy factors and gave himself a stable rear. In addition to the substantial benefits, he also made the local powerful landlords and clans more devoted to the idea of ​​relying on and following Li Meng.

At the end of June, Sun Hedou, who had not been in contact for many days, sent someone to send a message to Li Meng, saying that he would go to the craftsman shop near Fengmeng Town to take a look.

After the third son of the Sun family was captured and plundered to Jiaozhou, after several long talks between Sun Hedou and Li Meng, he quickly expressed his determination to be loyal. Sun Hedou's theoretical knowledge of firearms was what Li Meng needed the most. Although he was worried that they would leak everywhere, he still sent Sun Hedou to the craftsman's craftsman's workshop where firearms were made, but the personal barracks were specifically focused on it as a precaution.

As for Sun Hejing, Sun Heding, two pure scholars, have been entangled in the yard for so long, and they have become much more peaceful. During their daily study, they have opened private schools in the yard, one for women and the other for men. The girls' yard naturally holds a curtain to attend classes.

Both private schools are the children of Jiaozhou camp officers, civil servants, craftsmen, and private businessmen. The reason for this girl school is that Mu Yunyao felt that Gu and Liu’s maids were quite useful, and she also wanted to find some caring people to help. It just so happened that most of the servants and servants who served in this house were family members of the Jiaozhou camp system, and they were willing to read and study their children. In addition, some orphans of dead officers and soldiers were the composition of private school students.

In addition, Su Anqi only came to attend classes occasionally. He mainly studied with Ning Qiangui and Zhou Yang. The priest Federer was also a teacher in this private school and taught some natural sciences.
