Time flows eastward like water and never looks back.
In the blink of an eye, 2 months have passed.
The remaining winter has passed, and even if the spring breeze from the north comes late, it will eventually turn the earth green.
People engaged in farming can be seen everywhere in the counties under Shi Jin's rule.
Spring rain is as precious as gold Even if it is still drizzling, people are still wearing bamboo hats and working hard in the fields.
There are no government officials coming to force people to do labor service, and officials are not coming to harass them.
What's more important is that the whip method is now implemented.
There are no other miscellaneous taxes, only land taxes, and they are 2 out of 10.
Such a low tax allows the people to see the hope of a better life, and they work more actively.
The reputation of officials not bullying the people and Liangshan soldiers not disturbing the people spread, and refugees from Henan, Hebei and other places came over one after another.
For a time, Shandong's population grew rapidly.
Since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Shandong has had more people and less land.
With so many refugees and not so much land, it would have caused social unrest and major problems in the past.
But now many businessmen think that the population is not large enough.
The local people in Shandong who have land and land are so prosperous in life that they are not willing to work as slaves or run away from home.
But people's lives are gradually getting better and their money is looser, so they are naturally willing to spend more money on weekdays.
Consumption has increased, and restaurants, teahouses, etc. have opened stores one after another.
The store is open, but it's short of staff.
There are more restaurants and teahouses, and naturally there are more vendors.
Vendors also need manpower.
For a while, it felt like there was a shortage of manpower everywhere.
Nowadays, the daily scene at the gates of cities such as Jeju, Miju, and Deungju is the same: a large group of restaurant keepers, sheep merchants, shipping merchants, and workshop owners gather at the gates.
As soon as they saw people who looked like refugees or people with foreign accents approaching, they immediately surrounded them and shouted loudly at the top of their lungs.
"Are you looking for a job?
I'm looking for a waiter at Yang's Restaurant.
The monthly salary is high and the treatment is good.
We work nine days and have one day off."
"We are hiring a carpenter.
Anyone who knows carpentry should come and take a look.
The monthly salary is 3 taels and 5 yuan, including food and accommodation."
"Don't listen to their lies, come to our Wang's Sheep Shop, and I guarantee you will have meat to eat every day."
Whether the population is growing rapidly or there is a shortage of manpower, these are all things Wu Yong needs to be concerned about.
Shi Jin is now paying more attention to military matters.
The imperial court is currently busy with Fang La's army in the south and has no time to take care of Shi Jin.
It is in peace with Liangshan's army.
In the past two months, the Liangshan Army has mainly focused on training new recruits and digesting prisoners.
In Jinzhou, the newly formed elite cavalry was led by Shi Wengong. 700 cavalry were drawn from the Liangshan army, 200 cavalry were selected from the surrendered Song soldiers, and 100 young men were recruited from the tribe to form an elite light cavalry of 1,000 people.
In order to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, Shi Wengong made great efforts to train his soldiers in person, day after day.
The Liangshan cavalry and the surrendered Song soldiers were all fine.
The 100 tribal cavalry looked down on Shi Wengong at first, thinking that there was no one among the Song people who was good at riding and archery.
Shi Wengong did not quibble, but gave these people a warning on the day they formed the army.
Riding a horse and galloping to the training ground, a hundred steps away, Shi Wengong nocked an arrow and drew his bow.
In an instant, nine arrows connected in a straight line and shot towards an archery target.
When an arrow hits the target, the arrow coming from behind will hit it instantly, directly splitting the arrow in front, nailing it to the target, and hitting the target.
The last arrow landed on the target, and there were already 16 sections of arrows lying on the ground.

Looking at the arrows on the target, the tribal cavalry were all stunned.
Nine Sons Chain Arrow It turned out to be the rumored Nine-Son Chain Arrow.
To shoot the Nine-Son Chain Arrow, you not only need to have a steady hand, but also need to draw the bow continuously.
How can you pull it if your arm strength is not a hundred pounds?
Shi Wengong's move completely convinced these tribal cavalry, and they have obeyed orders since then.
Now the navy is basically divided into three fleets.
Li Jun leads a fleet to station in Lushun.
Zhang Heng led a fleet to station in Yangtouwa, and Ruan Xiaoer led a fleet to station in Dengzhou.
The 3,000 people recruited from Shandong were divided among Li Jun, Zhang Heng, and Ruan Xiaoer.
Each fleet has 3,000 troops.
Although there are more people, the ship cannot be fully used for a while.
In many cases, fishing boats are needed to train sailors.
But these things will be settled soon.
When Xu Guanzhong retreated from Hangzhou City, he was not polite.
He forcibly recruited all the shipwrights from the Hangzhou Shipyard and prepared to send them to Dengzhou and Laizhou to build sea-going ships for the navy.
Just when the Liangshan Army was vigorously expanding its strength, the defeated Liao Army fled back to Liaoyang Prefecture, the capital of Liaoning, and reported to Xiao Baoxian, the left-behind secretary in Tokyo.
Xiao Baoxian heard that he did not dare to make arbitrary decisions, so he hurriedly sent his confidants to go to Liao Shangjing to meet Lord Daliao with the memorial.
The Imperial Palace of Linhuang Mansion was opened, the Lord of the Liao Dynasty was promoted to the Golden Palace, civil and military officials gathered together, and the court attendance was completed.
Prime Minister Zuo Youxi Bojin said: "Master Lang, Xiao Baoxian, the left-behind officer in Tokyo, sent someone to play.
The boy emperor of the Song Dynasty conferred the title of Shi Jin, a grass-roots bandit, as the general who defeated the Liao Dynasty.
This man led the troops to kill the commander of Suzhou Prefecture and captured it.
Now the Song army has accumulated more and more troops and horses in Suzhou, with a total of 50,000 troops.
The Tokyo Remaining Department does not dare to be arbitrary and implores Master Lang to send more troops and horses to support."
Sitting on the Dragon Throne, the Lord of Daliao could not hide his inner troubles.
He shouted: "Why did Daliao's Suzhou Prefecture be captured by the Song Army?
Wuyanguang, before you said that as long as I Daliao stationed troops on the border, you are so cowardly The fearful Song Dynasty He will obediently increase the annual coins.
Now the Emperor of Song not only refused to increase the annual coins, but also conferred some kind of general to attack Daliao, and now he has conquered Suzhou Prefecture."
Wu Yanguang stepped forward and shouted: "Master Lang, don't worry.
The boy emperor of the Song Dynasty was just planning to encircle Wei and save Zhao.
I have twenty-eight generals, eleven generals, and some powerful generals under my command.
What is there to be afraid of?
I beg Master Lang to give the order."
Let me personally lead the troops to kill this guy, so that I can scare the boy emperor and make him increase his coins obediently."
As soon as Wu Yanguang finished speaking, He Chongbao stood up and said: "As the saying goes: You can't kill a chicken with an ox's knife.
The orthodox army there has disappeared, and you only need to teach He to lead 10,000 troops and horses, and you can teach this A group of barbarians who will die without a burial place.”
The master was overjoyed when he heard this and shouted: "Okay, I will allocate 10,000 horses and infantry, as well as the remaining soldiers and horses in Tokyo to Aiqing.
You can go to the pass to meet the enemy at night.
You must kill these barbarians and take back Suzhou Mansion."
"The slave obeys the order" The Liao State sent He Chongbao as the general to lead 10,000 Liao soldiers and the soldiers left behind in Tokyo to attack Suzhou.
The Liangshan spy organization soon heard about it, and they immediately reported it to Shi Jin.
"Urgent report to Jinzhou" Just when Shi Jin was reading Sun Tzu's Art of War in the study, Lu Fang loudly reported it outside the study.
Liaodongbei Road Urgent "Come in" Hearing the shouts, Lu Fang walked in and presented the information from the spies who had reported to Shi Jin.
Shi Jin opened the seal, took out the information, and read it quickly.
"Pa" Shi Jin slapped the table and shouted: "Come here, send an order to the generals to come and discuss matters." :
