Suning found that not only did he like beauties, but he also had a hobby of collecting famous generals from the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Looking at Mao Gui in front of him, he fell in love with him more and more, and almost fell into disgrace.

Now the Longmen Escort Bureau has formed a series of rules. Newly joined "employees" must undergo a month of training. No matter what the "employees" did before, they can simply sharpen their temperament in order to better integrate.

Longmen Escort Agency.

Mao Gui came to Chuzhou to join Suning this time. He not only brought his family, but also 16 like-minded friends from the same hometown, all of whom wanted to make a good future with Suning, a fellow from Shandong.

Seeing that Mao Gui was not reused by Suning, but was sent to some "training base", the brothers who came with him all complained about Mao Gui, "Brother, this Suning looks down on people!

We worked so hard to come from Shandong to join him, but we didn't even give you the position of shopkeeper!"

"Haha, Erniu, there is no shopkeeper in Longmen Escort Bureau. They are called store managers." Mao Gui shook his head indifferently.

"Hmph! What kind of store manager is not a store manager?

Isn’t that just changing the soup without changing the medicine?

Suning just looks down on us fellow villagers too much."

“Er Niu, don’t talk nonsense!

This is the rule of Longmen Escort Agency. As long as we have the ability, we will definitely get ahead.

Moreover, the family members we brought were arranged to work in the Longmen Escort Bureau's workshop, and they were able to earn wages."

"Brother, do we really have to participate in a month of training and start from the bottom?" Hearing Mao Gui's scolding, Erniu and others were still a little unwilling.

"Er Niu, and brothers, if you are willing to drag your whole family and follow me, Mao Gui, to leave their hometown and come to Chuzhou, you trust me, Mao Gui.

This is my great honor.

However, I ask you to trust me again. I think my boss is definitely not an ordinary person and will definitely give us a great future."

"Brother, stop talking!

We all trust you!

Since you have decided to stay, the brothers will not hesitate to accompany you all the way to the dark side!"

"Okay! This is a good brother!

After making arrangements with our families, let’s go to Dingyuan Lupai Village to report!”

"What? Donkey Brand Village?"

"Yes! Longmen Escort Bureau has set up a training base in Lupaizhai.

New employees need to undergo one month of training before they can become full employees."

"Ah? It's so troublesome!"

"Well! Trouble is trouble!

But the treatment offered by the Longmen Escort Agency is very good. From now on, we can have ten cents a month, including food and accommodation.

After one month of training, we will become full-time employees of the Longmen Escort Agency, and our monthly salary will immediately increase to 30 cents. If we kill a robber who robs the Escort Agency, we will receive an additional reward of one or two silver coins.

If you are injured, the Longmen Escort Bureau will provide free medical treatment. If you are disabled, you will be given a suitable job. If you die in the line of duty, you will not only get a pension of ten taels of silver, but also help raise your children until they reach adulthood at the age of sixteen."

"Ah? Brother, such a good condition?

Could it be that the owner of Longmen Escort Bureau lied to us?" Erniu and his brothers were all shocked.

"Haha, brothers, don't worry!

Our boss will never deceive you." Wu San, who had been silent all this time, suddenly laughed, "And in order to prevent your superiors from deducting your wages, you all go directly to the nearby Longmen Escort Agency on a monthly basis.

The banker withdraws the money himself."

"Ah? Is it true?" The fellow villagers Mao Gui brought looked at the unfamiliar Wu San in surprise, their eyes still full of wariness and doubt.

"Brothers, this is our boss's steward, Wu San, Butler Wu.

After we have dinner, Butler Wu will take us brothers and report to Lupai Village in Dingyuan." Seeing the alertness of his fellow villagers, Mao Gui quickly introduced Wu San's identity to everyone.

"Everyone, I know you will question it.

But when the monthly wages are paid, don’t you all know it?

We at Longmen Escort Agency operate with integrity and will never treat our employees harshly."

In this way, under the joint persuasion of Mao Gui and Wu San, the fellow villagers brought by Mao Gui went to Lvpai Village in Dingyuan with doubts, and started their magnificent life.

...

Lupai Village outside Dingyuan City was originally just a bandit den. There was a group of nearly 10,000 bandits living there all year round. There were nearly 3,000 bandits in their prime. They were a force that should not be underestimated near Dingyuan City.

, even the officials in Dingyuan City did not dare to provoke him easily.

When the Longmen Escort Bureau opened a branch in Dingyuan City, the Longmen Escort Bureau head office in Chuzhou City also started its business reaching Dingyuan and Haozhou.

At first, the bandits in Lvpaizhai did not dare to easily provoke the Longmen Escort Bureau. After all, they were not familiar with the methods of the Longmen Escort Bureau. However, as the Longmen Escort Bureau grew and began to monopolize all the escort business around Nanjing, Lvpaizhai's

The bandits could no longer hold back their greed and began to attack the escort team of Longmen Escort Bureau.

The battalion commander in charge of Dingyuan and Haozhou is Chang Yuchun of the third battalion. When he saw the bandits in Lupaizhai who were desperate for life and death, he immediately excitedly led 300 "employees" to rush forward. How could a group of bandits who bully the weak and fear the strong be possible?

It was the opponent of the "regular army". Under the attack of the "employees" of the Longmen Escort Bureau with leather armor and regular ordnance, they surrendered directly to Chang Yuchun's Third Battalion.

After receiving the "battle report" sent by Chang Yuchun, Suning was pleasantly surprised and came up with the idea of ​​setting up a training base. As the Longmen Escort Bureau grew, his team grew more and more, always wandering around the big city. Meng Yuan's

These bosses will also be worried.

Although he keeps using gold to corrupt them, they will always have a bottom line. Suning does not want to expose his power so quickly, so a secret "training base" is very necessary.

Suning directly ordered Chang Yuchun's Third Battalion to recruit the bandits from Lupai Village and refine a thousand high-quality young adults from them, who would be added to Chang Yuchun's Third Battalion and become "regular employees" of the Longmen Escort Bureau.

Mao Gui and a group of sixteen people followed Wu San to Lupai Village. It felt like this was a huge military camp, with lively training scenes everywhere. Unlike other military camps that trained every ten days, there were training tasks here every day.

Mao Gui and the other sixteen people watched all this with curiosity, and then they were dispersed by the person in charge of Lupaizhai's "training base" and scattered into various classes, without receiving any preferential treatment.

Soon the one-month training was over, and Mao Gui lived up to expectations and became the squad leader. Five of the brothers who came with him also became squad leaders, and then they slowly accepted the life of the Longmen Escort Bureau.

There is a saying that is true, gold will shine wherever it goes. The outstanding performance of Mao Gui and others soon promoted themselves all the way up. In the end, Mao Gui was promoted to the position of company commander and was assigned to Zhu Chongba's No. 1

The second battalion serves as company commander.

Suning knew about Mao Gui's outstanding performance and ability, so he just smiled silently and did not continue to promote Mao Gui to the position of battalion commander. After all, Mao Gui still needed a suitable credit for the time being.

Suning has always emphasized fairness and justice. Although he believed in Mao Gui's ability, it was still impossible for him to directly assume a high position. He had to be fully integrated into the Longmen Escort Bureau in order to conquer the city without hesitation.

Putting Mao Gui in Zhu Chongba's second battalion was also to allow Mao Gui to check Zhu Chongba's ambitions and prevent him from getting too carried away. Of course, when Mao Gui gets a job, Suning will definitely hand over the first battalion to Mao Gui.

With expensive hands, Suning will not let this general go to waste.

...

It was already the eighth year of Zhizheng, and there were still three years left before Liu Futong and Han Shantong's White Lotus Sect uprising. It would take at least the thirteenth year of Zhizheng for them to truly form a huge force, which meant that it would take another five years to start the rebellion.

Suning’s anti-Yuan cause “shields the wind and rain”.

Therefore, Suning has been very confused recently, whether to wait patiently for five years, or to immediately raise the first banner to resist Dayuan. The pros and cons of both options are very obvious, which makes Suning unable to make a decision for the moment.

After Liu Yifei put the child to sleep, she found that her husband looked worried, and then looked at Suning doubtfully, "Suning, what's wrong with you?

Why do you look worried?"

"Hmm! I'm debating whether to revolt now or wait until Liu Futong and others attract firepower for us."

"Is this... a big difference?"

“Yes! There’s a big difference!

If we are the first to raise the anti-Yuan banner, then we will naturally be regarded as orthodox. At the very least, the title can be based on our own wishes, and we do not need to be controlled by others.

But if this happens, we are bound to encounter a crazy counterattack by the Mongolian and Yuan armies!"

"But if we wait until Liu Futong and Han Shantong rebel first, I have the impression that they failed at the beginning. It was not until the thirteenth year of Zhizheng that they had any strength to fight against Meng Yuan. That means we still need to wait five years."

"In this way, we will lose a lot of opportunities. In five years, there will be countless uncertain variables, and there will still be a lot of troubles."

"Well! It's really a headache for you to analyze it like this.

I can't help you with these matters, you can only make your own decisions.

However, no matter which path you choose, Su Ming and I will support you without regrets!"

"Haha, you two are the source of my motivation." Suning couldn't help but happily hugged his wife into his arms.

"Sissi, what do you think of Chen Boda?"

"Well! I feel like Chen Boda is a little cautious.

But his help to our Su family is really nothing to say.

In the beginning, you just pretended to be a "fake monk" and helped him and his father fulfill a wish, which can be said to be a dispensable thing.

But we cannot gain a foothold in Chuzhou City without the help of the Chen family."

"Yeah! So I'm going to have a showdown with Chen Boda."

"Ah? Showdown? Isn't it too risky?"

"Haha, with Chen Boda's intelligence, he should have noticed our plan a long time ago and was just pretending to be confused."
