Cheng Gao is dead, so there is no need to be so strict in the Baihu House. Besides, it is not good to bring a knife with you when you go to Li Kun's house.

Wu Nian came to visit wearing a half-worn cotton-padded jacket.

The concierge of the Li Mansion was very discerning and enthusiastically invited Wu Nian to come and sit down in the main room.

Before his butt was warm from sitting, he saw Li Kun walking in from outside with a smile on his face.

"Master General." Wu Nian stood up politely and saluted Li Kun with clasped fists.

This Mr. Li Qi is so good at life. Wu Nian respects him more. If Cheng Gao was like this, how could there be so many things happening.

"You're still following me through such red tape." Li Kun pretended to be angry and glared at Wu Nian.

"Haha." Wu Nian chuckled and said smoothly: "It's my fault, little brother."

"Haha." Li Kun was satisfied, and then he and Wu Nian sat down on the main table across the coffee table.

"Brothers. Brothers settle accounts. According to the agreement, we will divide the family property fifty-fifty. This time I smoothed the relationship and settled the marriage. This part of the money must be calculated between the two of us."

Li Kun said to Wu Nian seriously.

Even though he and Wu Nian are now brothers, he is actually a little afraid of Wu Nian in his heart. This guy really does whatever he says.

He was afraid that Wu Nian would misunderstand, so he calculated the accounts clearly.

"This is what it should be." Wu Nian nodded. There was no reason for Li Kun to pay this money in vain.

"The property of a family is mainly land, house, shop, cash, slaves, horses, and cars."

"His properties, houses, and shops are all over Beishan Fort and the surrounding counties. Based on calculations, I have several distribution plans. For example, do you want slaves or not? Do you want the fields, houses, shops in the county, or don't you want the county?

The fields, houses and shops.”

Li Kun cheered up and started talking, looking very professional.

After Wu Nian thought for a while, he said: "Brother, I only want the property inside and outside Beishan Castle, the shop, and the slaves. I don't want any of them, but I will keep all the horses."

Running such a large property requires a lot of manpower.

For example, a grain and oil shop in Dingxian County needs a shopkeeper, a clerk, and a cashier. Wu Nian started his business barefoot and did not have much knowledge, so he could not manage it.

During this battle, he killed many slaves of married families, all of whom were sons of the same family and were related by relatives.

He also did not dare to use married slaves for fear of causing trouble.

All you need are the fields, houses and shops inside and outside Beishan Fort, as well as cash.

"Okay. That's the plan." Li Kun was prepared. He took out several pieces of paper from his wide sleeves, looked at them, and handed one of the pieces of paper to Wu Nian.

Wu Nian reached out and took the paper, lowered his head and read it.

The accounts are calculated very clearly.

There is a three-level mansion in Beishan Castle, two cloth shops, 500 acres of farmland, two horses, 200 copper coins, 150 taels of silver, and 20 taels of gold.

"That's it." Wu Nian was very satisfied with this, put down the paper in his hand, raised his head and said to Li Kun.

"Okay. I'll go through the formalities later. These things will be yours tomorrow." Li Kun smiled and nodded.

"Wait a minute, brother. There is something I want to discuss with you." Wu Nian raised his hand and said.

"Say." Li Kun said cheerfully.

"Can I be the general flag?" Wu Nian asked with a flash of light in his eyes.

Li Kun felt dizzy and sighed: "Brother, you have only been a small flag for a few months, and you are still thinking about the general flag?"

"Honestly. No way."

"Unless you have military exploits or spend a lot of money to open the joints."

Wu Nian didn't have much hope for this matter. Beishan Fort is in a peaceful era, and this promotion takes time to accumulate. He has such a big industry now. If peace continues, in a few years, he will be able to save money to open up the joints.

.

"I want to go out and buy some slaves and use the money to raise a team of domestic soldiers. Do you have any connections?"

Wu Nian asked.

The existence of the Meng Yuan people was like a sharp sword hanging over his head. He instinctively wanted to expand his troops, expand his troops, and then expand his troops.

Since there is no general flag, we can only recruit a team of family soldiers.

Li Kun was not surprised by Wu Nian's actions. This Lord Xiaoqi had recruited a complete army of soldiers, and he was the only one in Beishan Fort.

"Brother, the reason why we officials recruit domestic soldiers is because domestic slaves are the sons of the family and have been slaves for generations. They are relatively loyal. If you buy slaves from outside, your loyalty will not be reliable."

When Li Kun said this, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he said to Wu Nian: "Brother. Or I can find a way to get some domestic slaves for you, and you can find strong ones to train as domestic soldiers."

"Besides, have you heard of Zhang Jin?"

The sparkle in Wu Nian's eyes flashed away.

Zhang Jin. He really remembers this name.

This man was born in the military, was proficient in boxing, swordsmanship, spearmanship, and was proficient in bow and horse. He was a very strong guy.

But in this era, you can't be an official without money.

Zhang Jin has always been a soldier.

Later, his friend offended the local Xiao Qi and wanted to be beheaded. In a rage, he killed Xiao Qi and fled to the mountains.

I heard that there are more than a dozen families located on Fenghuang Mountain, about fifteen miles northwest, all of whom are exiled military households.

"Turning exiled military households into domestic slaves is also a routine for us officials. This Zhang Jin is very capable and arrogant. Many people want to recruit him, but he has not agreed. I think you can do it, brother.

.”

"Brother, please collect your seals and wait for a dozen or so families, and I will buy you a dozen more slaves. You can not only refine a team of domestic soldiers, but also let them monitor each other. You won't be able to bully your master."

"My slave can also serve you, help you farm, and manage the cloth shop of Beishan Castle. You can accomplish multiple things with one stone."

"But there is one thing, brother, you have to think about it. Zhang Jin is a capable person, he is also loyal, and he is probably reliable. But he is a murderer after all. Liaodong is unstable now, and many laws of the court have become invalid."

"But if Liaodong stabilizes, then if you take Zhang Jin in and you are reported, you will also have to face a lawsuit."

At the end of the sentence, Li Kun's face was extremely solemn.

Wu Nian thought about it for a while, and after analyzing the pros and cons, he raised his head and said to Li Kun: "Thank you for taking care of me, brother. But a group of pigeons is not as good as an eagle. Now that the Meng Yuan people may go south at any time, Beishan Fort is actually in danger. One Zhang Jin

, more useful than a group of soldiers. I will go to Phoenix Mountain and ask him to come out."

Li Kun nodded and said, "Just think about it." Then he asked casually, "When will you leave?"

"After I take my concubine, I will go find Zhang Jin." Wu Nian replied with a smile.

His mind was filled with Chen's body and three words, which really made him hungry.

"Ah?!!!" Li Kun couldn't hold himself any longer and screamed in surprise.
