Traveling through the late Ming Dynasty to promote Chinese civilization

Chapter 6 Preliminary Planning

?

Liu Ye and Liang Xiaoming's attack on Tangjiazhuang was a great success, and everyone was filled with joy.

This battle also gave Li Family Village hope and confirmed the status of Liu Ye and others. They all hoped to follow this master so that they would never have to worry about not having a good life in the future.

After Li Fu dealt with the government officials, they learned that Tangjiazhuang had been forced to change its surname the previous night. They feared their interests would be threatened, but Li Fu assured them that their relationship would remain unaffected. At this point, the officials reasoned that it didn't matter if someone else took over, as long as their interests remained intact.

After hearing Li Fu's words, Liu Ye immediately felt his opportunity had arrived. He instructed Li Fu to find some able-bodied men, train them, and gradually build up their strength. Moreover, with the salt fields in Li Family Village and the financial support of Tang Family Manor, how could he and Mingzi, having come to this chaotic late Ming Dynasty, not do something worthwhile?

"Please rest assured, Master Liu, I will definitely do my best to handle this for you," Li Fu said, suppressing his joy.

"Okay, go ahead." After saying that, Liu Ye quickly went to discuss it with Liang Xiaoming.

Upon entering Liang Xiaoming's room, I saw him sitting listlessly in a chair.

"Mingzi, are you alright?" Liu Ye asked hurriedly.

"Sigh, I wonder how my parents are doing now." Liang Xiaoming sighed.

"Yes, I miss my parents too."

“You’re here on business, why don’t you go keep your wife company? I think she’s quite pretty, you can’t mistreat her.” Liang Xiaoming said to Liu Ye.

"Don't worry, I'm not some beast who abandons his lover after he's done with his pants. Don't you know me? I'll help you find someone even better in the future."

"That's good. What brings you here?"

“We have money and manpower now, but we don’t know when we can go back. Since we don’t know if we can go back, you can manage the technology, and I am, after all, a company CEO, so I can manage it. If we don’t do something, we’ve wasted our time here.”

“That makes sense. Just tell me what you want me to do, because all I know is technical stuff.” Liang Xiaoming shook off his previous listlessness and became serious.

And so, a new era was about to begin.

A few days later, Li Fu brought back a group of about a hundred people. Liu Ye and Liang Xiaoming took a look and both thought they were quite good. They whispered to Li Fu, "How are these people? I don't want anything to go wrong, and I don't want them to cause any trouble for us."

“Sir, you can rest assured. They are all from Guangdong. They fled here because they offended the local tyrants, and I took them in. I guarantee they won’t cause any trouble. I swear on my life,” Li Fu said firmly. He knew that this Master Liu was going to do great things in the future.

Liu Ye looked at him, then nodded in satisfaction.

Throughout history, regardless of social class, people have always aspired to official positions and power. They were criminals who fled to the mainland, far from the mainland, and wandering the world was not the life they wanted.
