Chapter 114

Song Tianming also greeted everyone with a smile.

It can be seen that the men have high expectations for him to come back this time.

At this time, a thin man suddenly rushed out of the crowd and started crying when he arrived in front of Song Tianming:

"Sir, you have to make the decision for us. My wife is so inappropriate. She is like scolding me and grandson every day! If she hadn't made money in the workshop, I wouldn't..."

A man quickly covered his mouth: "Shut up! Sir, this guy, Aman, is not a man who has a slut and is talking nonsense all day long. Don't believe him!"

The man named Ah Man was not convinced and broke free and said, "Who is talking nonsense? You are the same. You are chased by your wife's feather duster every day, and you don't dare to put a single fart!"

The man was also annoyed and turned around and shouted, "Don't you bet! I don't want to bother with women yet!

If she is a man, I won’t kill him!"

Song Tianming heard the two of them say something and say something, and looked at the awkward people around him, and couldn't help frowning.

It seems that things are somewhat different from what Cheng Susu said in his letter.

Maybe men do have excessive behavior, but women do a lot of extraordinary things.

But Su Su can't even handle the process. From the perspective of women, she naturally describes the female workers as victims.

Sure enough, I still have to come back and see it myself to know the whole story.

"Okay, Ah Man, Tietou, don't argue. I have heard about what happened during this period. When I came back this time, I was also thinking about whether I could solve this problem."

At this time, there was a stir in the crowd. The old lady came across the crowd and cursed angrily: "Don't you all look embarrassed? I took out the torn crotch at home and showed off. I ran to Mr. Xiao Song and said, "I'm ashamed of you!"

Everyone was scolded by him and didn't dare to raise their heads.

Then the old clerk turned his head to look at Song Tianming: "Mr. Song, these incompetent boys make you laugh.

But I’m also blaming me for not being able to find out the clues earlier, and it’s not going to end now.”

"Old Minister, how can you blame you for this? If you blame me, I have considered too little before running the workshop..."

Song Tianming looked around everyone and said, "I have come to greet you with my kindness and I am very grateful to you."

Please go home first and wait for news. Song will give you a satisfactory reply..."

Under the persuasion of Song Tianming and Lao Lichang, everyone gradually dispersed.

Song Tianming did not go back, but came to the old lady's house.

"Mr. Xiao Song, I don't know how Miss Cheng told you, but you should have seen that in fact, both male and female relatives have been inappropriate during this period."

Song Tianming nodded: "That's right, there's no slap in the hands, and the female workers must have problems. I will talk to Su Su."

Old Lieutenant always always has fairness and justice in the village, so Song Tianming naturally is willing to believe his words.

After hearing this, the old clerk smiled and nodded, hesitated for a while, and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Xiao Song, I have heard about something recently. Are you recruiting private soldiers now?"

Song Tianming didn't expect that this incident had already spread to the village and asked, "How did you know?"

"There is no airtight wall in this world. A few veterans from the neighboring village went to your appointment before. When they came back, the matter spread and many men in the village knew about it."

Song Tianming frowned: "Did you say anything?"

"There are always some complaints. Generally speaking, when aristocrats from all over the country recruit private soldiers, they will first select young and strong people from the village. They will only go back to find them elsewhere after the villagers have finished picking them.

The gentleman didn't know about this and went straight to the veterans, so they were naturally unhappy..."

Song Tianming's expression was correct: "My elders must not misunderstand. The reason why I recruited veterans was to take care of the brothers of the Pioneer Camp, otherwise this matter would not have started so soon.

Moreover, I raise private soldiers for safety. You know, there have been many troubles in the county town recently, many of which are targeted at me.

The men in the village are all good, but it is still too difficult to let them solve these problems."

The old minister hurriedly said, "I am not blaming the gentleman, I just tell the truth. I have heard of the barbarians coming to cause trouble. If it weren't for the Seventh Prince and General Jiang Yu, the gentleman would probably have suffered a serious consequences, so it would be appropriate to take care of the veterans.

Speaking of which, I also retreated from the front line, and I am happy for them!”

Song Tianming knew what Lao Li means.

He was telling himself that this could be done, but he had to appease the mood of the men in the village and hoped that he could take care of his own people.

Song Tianming nodded: "Actually, there are not many veterans. I now have the baron position and can recruit 500 people. There are only a small number of veterans. I still have to choose from the young and strong people in the village.

I'm going to do this when I come back this trip!"

The old clerk immediately smiled happily: "That I am going to thank these little boys for yourselves!"

Song Tianming and Jiang Yu made an estimate that although there are more than a thousand veterans scattered everywhere in Yangzhou, there are probably only one or two hundred people who can really come.

The requirement of relocating the whole family is enough to discourage many people.

Moreover, there are probably not many of them that can be selected, and the rest are still arranged to work in the store and workshop.

If it goes well, plus the existing veterans, there will be only more than one hundred people, accounting for at most one-fifth of the quota, and the rest can only be selected from the township heroes.

This mix of new and old is also a feasible way.

In fact, many nobles are doing this.

They will ask some experienced veterans to train the recruits and pay the corresponding wages.

But these veterans are not considered among private soldiers, they are just working people. They are not as high as private soldiers and their treatment is average.

Unless these veterans have a good relationship with the nobles, or they are just old subordinates, it would be okay to give a private soldier position, but they are only a minority after all.

It is probably a unique situation for Daqian to let so many veterans who are not under his command and who have even met only once as private soldiers.

After talking to the old minister about the recent situation in the village, Song Tianming said goodbye and left to rush home.

At this moment, Cheng Susu and the other two were already waiting at the door.

"Why did you go to the old friend to grow up there for so long?" Zhou Yi said to herself with some fear and fear.

"I'm afraid the old minister has already sued us in front of my husband!" He Shuang said with some concern.

Cheng Susu calmed down a little and said, "Sisters don't be afraid. If your husband really blames you, I will bear it alone."

As soon as Cheng Susu finished speaking, he heard the sound of horse hooves coming from not far away. Looking around, it was Song Tianming riding a horse slowly towards this journey.

"Husband!" the three of them shouted in unison, hurried over and helped him off the horse and carried his bag.

"Thank you all these days, ladies." Song Tianming looked at the three of them and felt extremely warm.

Even if there are people serving you every day, no matter how comfortable you live in a restaurant, it is not as good as your home.

When he entered the house, Song Tianming found that the old house that was originally a bit dilapidated had been renovated. Not only did he brush the putty, but the floor was also replaced with flat stone slabs. Some holes on the roof were also covered with tiles. The tables and chairs were made of new wood, and they were spotless and were often scrubbed.

Some flowers and plants were planted in the yard, and a small shed was built with linen cloth, with a rocking chair made of bamboo, a stone table and a bench, and a set of exquisite ceramic tea sets were placed on it to shade the sun and avoid the heat.

In the corner of the shed, I don’t know where I got a raccoon. I was lying on the futon and was dozing off, shaking my tail from time to time, as if I was dreaming.

Looking at the full mood of life, people feel that it is more comfortable and comfortable than the large mansion in the county.

Song Tianming walked to the rattan chair, lay down slowly, closed his eyes, and shook it.

Isn’t this kind of environment what I have always dreamed of in the past?

Seeing that Song Tianming's face was pretty good, the three of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The three of them poured tea, pinched shoulders, wiped sweat, and didn't even intend to let him move, for fear that he would be tired.

Seeing that the three of them were so attentive, Song Tianming didn't know their little thoughts, and smiled and said, "Okay, okay, stop busy, sit down first, I have something to say to you."
