The team with Wang from the office will arrive in two days※※

Wang Tong immediately received a message from a soldier. He looked at the notes in his hand, and then smiled and stuffed them into the bag next to the saddle.

The spring was just right, and Wang Tong led his group to walk along the riverside. In the past, people were trampled on the roads, and it was quite difficult to walk. Now the road has been paved, and it is much more convenient to walk on it than before.

This time, the personal guards who followed Wang Tong were different from the past. Li Tao, Sun Xin and Li Hutou followed by his side on horseback, but later they were the young men brought from the Huwei Martial Arts Hall to Tianjin Wei.

The young man who came out of the Huweiwu Pavilion had already obtained a garrison position in the capital. It is said that among the people who returned to Xuanfu, there were already several Qianzong who were actually short of troops and led his troops to guard the battle. The rest of the people in Jizhen and the capital were also highly valued. First, everyone has heard rumors that the Huweiwu Pavilion in the capital was practiced with the emperor, and second, these young men have indeed learned real skills, fighting skills, marching and formation, and military discipline, which is convenient to use, so they are either improved or reused.

The teenagers who followed Tianjin Wei, especially Li Tao, Sun Xin and Li Hutou, performed the best in the martial arts hall, and the teachers praised them many times.

Under Wang Tong, the status of several people can only be said to be average, not because Wang Tong was not promoted. Instead, Wang Tong himself is a thousand households, and his position to give his subordinates is indeed limited.

Until now, Li Tao and Sun Xin are only a hundred families. Li Hutou is just a general bannerman. Besides Li Hutou, the other teenagers practiced in the camp all day long, and were not as close to Wang Tong as before.

However, Wang Tong also has a habit of something, some camp officials may not tell them, but they will definitely notify these teenagers, which is also a kind of training.

After hearing the note in Wang Tongnian's hand, Li Tao behind him hesitated and asked:

"Brother Wang, is it coming from the capital so fast?"

It is not during official business, but these young men call Wang Tong "Brother Wang". This is also a special kind of thing, and it is also the closeness that Wang Tong expressed. Wang Tong shook his head and said with a smile:

"It's not fast. It's already March 16th. I thought I could come on the fifth day of March."

All departments and supervisors jointly investigated and dealt with. Even the teenagers knew that this was a big deal, but they didn't ask much when they saw that Wang Tong had no sign of worry on his face.

But Wang Tong opened his mouth. Wang Tong held the horse whip in his hand and circled Haihe twice, and said with a smile:

"Have you ever thought about the prosperous look now?"

The boys shook their heads together, and Sun Xin sighed and said:

"When I seized the riverside to build a fort, I followed me. At that time, it was just a deserted beach, and there was a ruined road just below the place near Datun. But now, Shima Lane in the capital is richer and more prosperous than here, but in terms of liveliness, it is far worse than here.

"How dare you think about it before? My father said that a brick fort was built in the north of Xuanfu. It took a year to repair it. In the end, Ma Dashu cut off a few people's heads and then it was finished. But look at this place."

The words Li Tao followed made Wang Tong stunned. He couldn't help but look at him and asked:

"Master Ma!?.

"Ma Fangxiao, general of Xuanfu

Wang Tong laughed silently. He really didn't expect that Ma Fang was earlier than Qi Jiguang and Yu Dazhu. A famous general of the times. There is a saying among the people that "Ma Fang is not as brave as Ma Fang", but the name Ma Fang is a coincidence with his memory in that lifetime.

After a little emotion, Wang Tong immediately sorted out his emotions and said:

"I'll ask you a few to open you out of the military camp today

Spring is on the riverside. The sun is warm and the wind is warm. Everyone is having fun chatting and laughing. Unexpectedly, Wang Tong said such words. Several people were stunned and Li Hutou immediately called out:

"Brother Wang, we did nothing wrong, the military is very strict, and we did not violate it at all."

Seeing that Sun Xin and Li Tao were about to speak, Wang Tong waved his hand to stop it and said with a smile:

"Listen to me, look at both sides of the Haihe River and what have you seen?"

The young men looked around immediately, besides the bustling crowds and neat streets, they could see the ships on the sea. Apart from that, they could not see anything else.

"Now it's just a matter of opening the Internet. If the sea ships come in large numbers after March, I don't know how prosperous it is. I don't know how many people, how much money, and how many goods are here. It's really a sea of ​​gold and silver

Wang Tong's description was vivid, but the teenagers still didn't understand what it had to do with their removal from the military camp, and their faces were full of ignorance.

"The wealth is moving, so many wealth is piled up here. Are there any precautions? "Brother Wang, isn't there a fort?"

"Can the artillery be turned around and fight? If there is a stir inside, or if someone is fighting over land, it will be smaller. If someone is making noise inside, will the people on the turret go over...

Speaking of this, everyone vaguely understood a little, and their expressions were not so anxious. Wang Tong said again:

"Now it is said that the Huwei Army is not in compliance with the rules. It is absolutely impossible to increase troops if you want to increase troops, but the local generals, Jin Yue, is not instructed to use it. It is not enough for us to guard the riverside city and the fortress, so we need to find a compromise."

Wang Tong took his horse and walked a few steps towards the river and continued:

"Sanjiang Trading Company is doing this so big, and according to the rules, it is necessary to protect the hospital and guard. I will arrange for the fire to come and lead it. You are the backbone and build a security army out.

When the teenagers heard that it was a guard, they were all a little listless. Wang Tong spoke leisurely:

"I'm going to recruit two thousand people first, and each of you is a battalion officer."

Hearing this, the young men were immediately excited. Now the battalion officer level is the highest position in Wang Tong's structure. They are now only a hundred households, and there are even a small flag. Suddenly, when they mention the position of being the only one, how can they not be excited? Some people even think about it. With the emperor's trust in Brother Wang and his closeness to Li Hutou, the guard may become a formal soldier.

"In the Huwei Army, the old master and the Zhun family are highly respected and use old-fashioned military training methods. You have learned a lot, and you have used what you have learned, what you have learned in the Huwei Army Middle School and the Huwei Wu Hall. Do you understand?

The last sentence increased, and the teenagers also awe-inspiringly replied:

"Understood!!"

Wang Tong pulled the reins, turned his mount and turned, and said with a smile:

"Be a plan in your heart first. At that time, I will take the exam one by one. If I can't pass the test, this battalion officer will not be able to do it.

The young men agreed again, and their spirits were completely mobilized. Wang Tong smiled and set up the city on the ground, gathered people and financial resources to protect them well. It is unlikely that the army will expand now, and it can only be unique.

After the explanation, Wang Tong felt relaxed, and the young men were also thinking about things. After a while, they were silent and everyone was wandering around the river.

After these days, the merchants from the north and south who came to Tianjin also knew that although the soldiers in the Jinyi Guard here were majestic, they did not disturb the people and had great rules. They looked at Wang Tong and his men, and they were not afraid, and everyone did their own things.

Walking on the street, a few people came towards me, with a strange accent, and they were vaguely in the dialect of Fujian. After hearing this, Wang Tong looked back and saw these men looking around and talking in a deep voice. Although he couldn't understand what he was saying, he still felt quite proud. Even the merchants from Fujian came to me in Tianjin.

In mid-March, the river ice in Tongzhou melted, and the entire canal was opened.

However, in the spring of the north, the water was dry, and the section from Tongzhou to Tianjin Wei can only carry passenger ships, and the cargo ship can only take small boats. But the ships from Tianjin Wei to the south can already be unobstructed.

However, at this time, most of the parts of the canal north were also in the near future. At present, only some Shandong ships came from Tianjin Wei.

Jinan Prefecture, Dongchang Prefecture and Dengzhou Prefecture in Shandong are closer to Tianjin Wei, so the news is very well-known. I prepared local specialties early and transported them by water. I hope to make money early.

Since there are merchant ship cargo, they naturally have to withdraw taxes. The merchants from the three governments in Shandong have long known the rules of tax collection and Wang Tong's thunderous means, so they have no intention of escaping, so they simply go to the tax card to take the initiative to pay the tax. They settled the procedures and did not care about what they wanted to earn.

But on March 16th, early ship owners carefully docked the ship. According to the past rules, the tax officers would come over with a smile to check the goods. Then they issued an order to collect the money. Today they docked. There was obviously someone on the shore, but no one came to greet him. After looking carefully, two groups of people were confronting on the shore. They looked like officials.

"Who are you? This is the tax card set up by the Tianjin Jinyiwei. Don't you know?

Zhang Shiqiang was called out from the house and felt a little uneasy when he saw this. He was not an angry tough guy, but just asked in a deep voice.

"Just! Jinyi's personal army is responsible for the inspection of the entourage. When will there be tax collection errands? We are the ones who take it out by Master Bing Beidao and Master Xu of the Supervisor. The inspection and entrainment on the canal and the silver is fined for tax collection. This is the ones who take it out on the side of Bing Beidao and the Supervisor."

"This is a tax card set up by the King of King Tong, Jinyiwei of Tianjin. You dare to move it!!!?

Someone asked behind Zhang Shiqiang, and the other side was sneering, and one of them cursed disdainfully:

"It's just a small family. I don't know how to do anything wrong. The capital has sent an imperial envoy to the capital. Sooner or later, I'll be punished and imprisoned. Why are you still crazy?!"

The tax-collecting servants under Wang Tong were all from the natives of the Jinyiwei in Tianjin and some tent staff. They were extremely afraid of things. Zhang Shiqiang was also weak-minded and was a little panicked for a moment.

He was always a little awake when he was panicked, and turned around and grabbed someone and whispered:

"Go to find Lord Wang, go quickly!".

Thank you everyone
