Chapter 164: Xu Da recommends talents Not long after, the two of them had entered Huai'an City.
Zhu Bayi looked around and took the initiative to stop talking, "Brother Chongba, let's go to the Dashi Medical Center to treat the wound first, and then we can go to the General Manager's Mansion for dinner.
It's not that far away, just turn a street away."
"The general manager gave me a meal, so Xiao Ke shouldn't refuse.
It's just that" Zhu Chongba looked back at the long-legged girl and responded hesitantly.
Although the folk customs of this era were bold and unrestrained, it was not like later generations where girls could visit other people's homes at will.
What's more, with the current identities of the long-legged girl and Zhu Chongba, they entered Zhu Ba11's mansion together.
The outside world will only say that on a certain day of a certain year, Guo Zixing's adopted daughter went to Huai'an Zhu's housekeeper alone, which is absolutely not the case.
Hui mentioned that she also had Zhu Chongba, the little leader of the bodyguards, beside her.
Therefore, for the sake of the woman's reputation, Zhu Chongba could not accept this invitation.
"It doesn't matter."
Zhu Bayi thought for a moment and immediately understood the other party's difficulty.
"Tongfu, you go find Lu Changshi and Su Changshi, and we can all go to the largest restaurant in the city for a meal.
Anyway, the skills of the cooks in my house may not be as good as those of the great master in the restaurant."
"Yes" Hu Dahai raised his hand and left after taking the order.
Calling the old man Lu Luzeng, by virtue of his status as a great scholar in the world, can naturally reduce a lot of gossip.
Zhu Chongba understood that the other party was sincerely inviting him.
After thinking about it, he gently handed over his hand again: "Then Xiaoke, it's better to be respectful than to obey.
Miss, look."
"You promised me first, so why bother asking me?"
The long-legged woman rolled her eyes at him and scolded him loudly.
Then, he quickly added, "Go, of course you go.
Someone's unreasonable men caused you to get a knife in the neck in vain.
For this meal, we will consider him apologizing to us."
"It's not that my men are unreasonable, it's that Brother Chongba's neck is too stiff."
Zhu Bayi naturally would not be serious with a spoiled woman, so he smiled and added smoothly.
"Let's go to the medical clinic first, and then to the restaurant.
I haven't been there for some time at the medical clinic.
I just took the opportunity to go over and say hello to Director Iben."
"Are you familiar with the director?"
The long-legged girl frowned and asked in a low voice when she saw Zhu Ba11 talking about the medical center as casually as his own general manager's office.
"I helped him open the medical clinic.
Our Huai'an military general manager's office is in it and accounts for half of the shares."
Zhu Bayi responded smoothly without thinking.
"Half of my shares, I dare you, the governor, besides selling artillery, you are not willing to let go of the patient's consultation fee."
The long-legged girl frowned again and said with disdain.
"Shut up, why is my governor like that?"
"Miss, please be careful, Manager Zhu is not that kind of person."
Almost at the same time, Xu Hongsan and Zhu Chongba opened their mouths to defend Zhu Bayi.
The long-legged girl was stunned by what the two said and wanted to get angry, but she didn't want to lose face to Zhu Chongba in front of so many people.
His face turned black from being suppressed, and he breathed heavily.
Zhu Bayi looked interesting, shook his head, and took the initiative to explain, "Most of the doctors in this medical clinic are lustful people.
Their original purpose of opening this medical clinic was not only to treat living people, but also It was for better missionary work.
Zhu couldn't stop them from saving people, but he couldn't let them go either.
Their congregation is the largest in the city, so they came up with this idea and paid out 5,000 yuan of principal, plus my Huai'an Army's exclusive secret liquor, which is counted as 50% of the daily charity.

The money for medicinal materials is considered as half of the family, and if the patient is cured and wants to be grateful, it is also considered as half of the family."
Gratitude is something that cannot be seen or touched.
In other words, this medical clinic is most likely in the business of losing money and making money.
The long-legged girl blinked her eyes, and she immediately understood that she had once again treated a gentleman with a villain's heart.
Blushing, he whispered, "So that's it.
I didn't see it.
There are times when you don't like money.
In that case, why is a copper cannon weighing more than 500 kilograms sold out for the price of a thousand kilograms of copper?
, and the prices are also starting from the ground up.”
"First, the craftsmen under Zhu's command also have to eat.
Second, if others don't pry into my method of making cannons, I will not deliberately make things difficult for them."
For Zhu Chongba's sake, Zhu Ba11 patiently Xingzi explained.
The long-legged girl's face immediately turned an eggplant color again.
She snorted and turned her head to the side, not daring to say anything more.
However, soon, she pointed to a pointed building and shouted, "What is that?
Why is there a cross on it?"
"That's an Orthodox church," Zhu Ba11 looked at her finger and explained with a smile.
"Aren't you the leader of the Maitreya Religion?
How can you allow others to, oh, and that lustful person come back to preach in your territory?"
The long-legged girl was very puzzled and continued to investigate.
"When I became the leader of the Maitreya Church, I just wanted to gather people to rebel.
In fact, I don't believe in any gods."
The last thing Zhu Bayi wanted to be mentioned was that he pretended to be the leader of the Maitreya Church.
After thinking about it, he responded weakly.
"Oh, it turns out you just throw it away after use," the long-legged girl concluded unceremoniously.
"How can you say that to the general manager?"
Seeing that she was about to arouse public outrage again, Zhu Chongba quickly made up for her, "Those bastards, they usually do nothing but bully men and dominate women.
The general manager should break away from them as soon as possible.
It’s better than providing for them all the time, otherwise, trouble will happen sooner or later.”
This sentence is to the point again.
At the beginning of Guo Zi's rise, Mingjiao played a large role in it.
But after the conquest of Haozhou, these believers, especially some so-called hall masters and incense masters, began to take credit for themselves, and dared to do things in broad daylight to bully men, dominate women, and steal people's money.
And he often ignored the orders of Guo Zixing, the general manager.
But because they had a large number of people and occupied many key positions in the Haozhou Army, Guo Zixing was just angry, but there was nothing he could do against these people.
As Guo Zixing's adopted daughter, Ma Dajiao certainly didn't have a good impression of Mingjiao.
Hearing Zhu Chongba also speak for Huai'an Army, instead of being angry, he immediately changed his tone and said softly according to the other person's tone, "I'm not saying that Manager Zhu did something wrong.
It's just that I think he did too much.
It's easier.
Isn't he afraid that Monk Peng and Liu Futong will join forces to cause trouble for him?"
"Monk Peng made Xu Shouhui the emperor, but Liu Futong is looking around for the whereabouts of Prince Xiao Ming.
The two families are about to start a fight, who can care about me?"
Zhu Ba11 took over and responded with a sigh.
The Ming Sect was formed by the merger of the White Lotus Sect, the Manichae Sect, and the Maitreya Sect.
The original organization was extremely chaotic.
At present, the Maitreya Sect is very powerful in the Xiangfan area, so they directly appointed their leader Xu Shouhui as the emperor, and the country was named Tianwan.

There is one more word each than Dayuan.
Of course Liu Futong, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, could not recognize the Tianwan Emperor, so he vowed to search the ends of the earth to find Han Lin'er, the Little Ming King who had been separated when the first uprising failed, and become the co-leader of the red scarf in the world.
As a result, the two main red scarf forces were already at war with each other before they expelled Meng Yuan back to Mobei.
If Meng Yuan hadn't deployed more than 300,000 troops in Bianliang area some time ago, the two families might have started fighting long ago.
If there is a conflict between the two main red scarf forces, neither Haozhou Guo Zixing, Suzhou Zhima Li, nor Huaisi Zhu Bayi will be able to stay away.
The only one who really reaped the benefits was the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasty.
So everyone usually doesn't mention this issue, but when it comes to it, they feel extremely depressed.
As soon as he said the words, he immediately lost his energy.
When the long-legged girl saw this, she was so frightened that she slightly stuck out her tongue.
I quickly spread my hopes and tried to find new topics.
Not to mention, there are indeed countless fresh scenery in Huai'an City.
After only a few glances, she pointed to a strange three-story building and asked loudly, "What is that?
Why are there so many wooden fans on it, and they keep spinning?"
"That's a windmill," Zhu Bayi glanced at it and explained in a low voice.
"It is used for grinding flour.
The wind blows and moves the millstone underneath.
It can grind the flour well without using animals."
"This thing is really new, Brother Chongba, can you do it?"
The long-legged girl was delighted to see Hunter Xin, and asked Zhu Chongba with some expectation.
"I have seen it elsewhere when the young monk went around asking for alms.
But I may need to think about how to do it specifically."
Zhu Chongba subconsciously touched his helmet and responded with a smile.
"Oh," the long-legged girl nodded lightly, "As long as you know how to do it.
I'll get the money when I get back, and you can make one for me.
In this way, our Haozhou army won't have to let our brothers grind the mill again."
"Okay."
Zhu Chongba nodded indulgently and agreed without even thinking about it.
The long-legged girl raised her head proudly and continued to look left and right.
Soon, I saw something new, "That carriage is so big, it actually has four wheels.
Manager Zhu, do all the carriages in Huai'an have four wheels?"
"It's a method of making cars brought over by the Big Eater.
I asked people to enlarge it and work as a public carriage driver in the city."
Zhu Bayi looked at it and explained patiently, "I can only run around in the city and go out."
After arriving in the city, I stopped eating immediately as soon as I reached a worse road surface."
"What does a public carriage mean?"
"Everyone can sit on it, as long as they can afford the fare."
"You actually charge money.
Do you have many war horses in Huai'an?
Are they so luxurious that they can be used to pull carts for others?"
"During the battle with the Asu Army, we captured some.
I couldn't afford so many cavalry, so I had to use the extra horses to pull carts."
"This is such a waste of natural resources that you can't support yourself, won't you share it with others?"
The long-legged girl felt distressed and criticized loudly.
But then I thought about it, all the heroes were not relatives of Zhu Bayi, and they had even tried to get someone else's cannon-making secrets, so his accusation seemed completely unreasonable.
He quickly shook his head and added in a low voice, "I said it was for sale.

Do you have any extra war horses here to sell?
We in Haozhou can buy them at the market price."
"I don't care about this matter.
You have to ask Mr.
Su."
Zhu Bayi was really confused by her question, so he had to direct the trouble to others, "that is Su Changshi of our Huai'an Army.
Regarding foreign business, Usually I leave it to him."
"Then find someone to take me to see him later."
The long-legged girl thought for a while and nodded lightly.
Soon, his eyes were attracted by other things.
He pointed to another building on the roadside and asked loudly, "What is that for?
Why is it painted more colorfully than the bride's wedding dress?
Those buckets next to it are also What are the bamboo pipes for, and why are there so many of them?”
Like a curious baby, she walked and asked questions, and she didn't stop talking until she came out of the hospital.
Zhu Bayi could still explain it bravely at first, but later on, his mouth was really dry.
He had no choice but to pull Huang Laowai out to jack up the cylinder.
As for Huang Laowai, as long as the long-legged girl doesn't marry his own governor, he won't find her annoying.
He took over the conversation very patiently and showed off the new gadgets he saw along the way one by one like a treasure.
From showing off on the road to the hospital, and then from the hospital to the restaurant.
It wasn't until everyone sat down on the second floor of the largest tavern in Huai'an City, and old Jinshi Lu Zeng was also invited to attend, that he stopped talking without saying anything.
At this moment, Zhu Bayi finally had the opportunity to ask Zhu Chongba about Xu Da.
The latter immediately took out a letter bag sealed with fire paint from his arms and held it up in both hands.
"To the Chief Supervisor, this is the handwritten letter that General Xu asked Xiao Ke to bring to you.
Xiao Ke and General Xu are among the general managers.
Hand over, he didn't believe that the manager had ever said He was afraid that Xiao Ke would be unfamiliar with Huai'an and no one would care about him if he got into trouble, so he gave Xiao Ke a talisman under the pretense of dragging Xiao Ke to deliver a message on his behalf.
Now that the misunderstanding has been revealed, this Please ask the Governor to take back the amulet first."
The words seemed humorous, but they clearly introduced the reason why Xu Da wrote the letter and the relationship between himself and Xu Da.
Of course, Xu Da was worried that someone else must be causing trouble, but it was just not convenient for everyone to explain it in person.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say.
No matter what happens, I should thank you for bringing the letter for General Xu."
Zhu Ba11 admired Zhu Chongba more and more, took the letter with both hands, and responded with a smile.
The envelope's lacquer seal was intact, and it was clear that no one had tried to open it on the road.
The content inside was basically consistent with what Zhu Chongba himself said.
From the beginning, Xu Da did not believe that those evil words came from the mouth of his own governor.
However, since the Tartars have not yet been expelled, Xu Da tactfully said a few good words for Guo Zixing's daughter and suggested that no matter what extraordinary things the daughter did, the governor should try not to pursue them for the sake of her good nature.
At the end of the letter, the tone became very solemn.
Obviously, these are the things Xu Da really wanted to tell Zhu Bayi: "Brother Chongba's insight and talent can defeat the last general ten times.
Therefore, the last general is bold and asks the governor to take him under his account and entrust him with important tasks.
The last general is willing to give up his position as the commander of the third army and is willing to be his deputy. .
The general has little talent and is afraid of not knowing what to say.
I just ask the commander to think carefully and not to miss the talent of music.
Then I bow to the commander of the third army, Xu Da."
