Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

The Lan family is really big, with pavilions, towers, gardens and ponds, but the layout is different from ordinary courtyards.

Ordinary courtyards are divided into front and back yards. The front yard is where men live, including the reception hall, study, guest rooms, and the family school, etc.

The back yard is where the family lives. Larger mansions are divided into inpatient and separate courtyards, and smaller houses are divided into main houses, east and west wing rooms, etc.

The Lan family's mansion also has front and back yards, but its front and back yards are much larger.

There are hundreds of houses of various types in the front yard, divided into six courtyards, and there is also a large martial arts training ground.

The back yard is even more exaggerated, with a large garden in the middle, with corridors, pavilions, rockery and flowing water, and countless precious plants and trees. Even though it is winter now, the scenery is very beautiful.

In fact, this is no longer a garden. It is similar to the park in the previous life, covering an area of ​​​​six or seven acres.

There are eight courtyards around the garden, and each courtyard is no smaller than the Yang family in Anyuan City.

Yang Zhengshan walked around the entire Lan family mansion, which took almost an hour, and you can see how big the Lan family mansion is.

Originally, Yang Zhengshan had no intention of occupying the Lan family mansion, but after seeing the Weisi Yamen, he had to occupy the Lan family mansion.

After walking around, Yang Zhengshan simply drew a layout of the Lan family mansion, and then called Yang Mingcheng, Xie Yuan, Song Dashan and others.

"Mingcheng, you will take your family to this courtyard later. This courtyard will be our home in the future. In the next two days, you can see if there is anything inappropriate and arrange for someone to modify it!"

Yang Zhengshan pointed to the largest courtyard, which originally belonged to Lan Buqi, but now belongs to the Yang family.

Of course, Yang Zhengshan will not occupy this courtyard as his own property, but will attribute it to the assets of the Weisi Yamen.

"Dad, I know, I will arrange it now!" Yang Mingcheng said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded, "You go and make the arrangements first. We won't live in tents outside the city today!"

After Yang Zhengshan left, Yang Zhengshan pointed to the yard next to him and said to Song Dashan, "This yard is for you. Let your family clean it up first!"

"Okay!" Song Dashan smiled innocently.

Except for the Yang family's yard, his yard is the best and closest to the Yang family.

Afterwards, Yang Zhengshan, Xie Yuan and Wu Chongzhe each got a yard. As for the others, those with fewer families got a small yard, and those with more families got two adjacent small yards.

Yang Zhengshan arranged all the remaining soldiers in the front yard directly.

After the division, Yang Zhengshan said, "Let's live like this for the time being. When we have sorted out the clues, we will renovate this place. The front yard will be used as the Weisi Yamen. The outer walls will be demolished, and then the unsuitable places will be renovated."

The Lan family mansion occupied half of the Weicheng, which was obviously inappropriate.

Yang Zhengshan has planned to split up the Lan family's mansion, leaving the main courtyard, but demolishing all the unnecessary corridors, and then open up the roads to free up some space to build houses and shops.

For Yang Zhengshan, a gorgeous mansion is far less important than a prosperous acropolis.

The mansion is enough to live in, there is no need to be too luxurious. If the acropolis can be developed, it can bring a steady stream of income to the Weisi Yamen.

Although he had just arrived at the acropolis, Yang Zhengshan had a lot of calculations in his mind.

Everyone stayed there first, and the next day, Yang Zhengshan directly moved the Weisi Yamen to the front yard of the Lan family.

In fact, the front yard of the Lan family is really suitable for the Weisi Yamen.

It occupies a large enough area, has enough rooms, and has stables, warehouses and martial arts training grounds, which can almost meet all the needs of the Weisi Yamen for building facilities.

Even if some places are not suitable, they only need to be slightly renovated.

In the morning, all the officials of the Tenglong Guard arrived.

Two commanders and four assistant commanders gathered in the lobby of the Lan family. No, it should be the lobby of the Weisi Yamen.

Six people in total stood respectfully in front of Yang Zhengshan, not daring to breathe.

Yang Zhengshan sat in the main seat, his eyes swept over them one by one.

"You are all old, and it's time to enjoy your life at home!"

He said lightly.

The six people's expressions moved slightly, but they still lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"This general will not pursue the previous problems, but there will be no place for you in Tenglongwei in the future! Do you understand?" Yang Zhengshan said directly.

One of the six secretly looked up at Yang Zhengshan, but still did not dare to speak.

"Now this general has only one request for you. Help my people to take over the Tenglong Guard. If you do well, you can go home and enjoy your life. If you don't do well, this general will send you to accompany the three brothers Lan Buqi!"

Finally, someone spoke up. Wang Yingcheng, the commander of the Tenglong Guard, stood up and said with a fist: "I obey your orders. I will cooperate with you. Please forgive us for our mistakes!"

Are they guilty?

A dereliction of duty is inevitable.

And they didn't take a lot of things from the Lan family. If they really wanted to talk about the crime, exile would be a light punishment.

Yang Zhengshan didn't think about investigating all these people, because they were still useful, and he still needed them to help him control the Tenglong Guard.

After all, he had just arrived and his understanding of the Tenglong Guard was still very one-sided. He needed some familiar people to help take over the Tenglong Guard.

"Very good!"

Yang Zhengshan nodded with satisfaction, and then shouted: "Xie Yuan! Song Dashan!"

"I am here!" Xie Yuan and Song Dashan strode in from outside the door.

"From now on, the two of you will temporarily take over the position of Tenglong Guard Commander." Yang Zhengshan said.

"Thank you, sir!" The two of them thanked happily.

Both of them were only Qianhu before, and now they have become Guard Commander, which is equivalent to a three-level promotion.

Although Yang Zhengshan said it was temporary, they all knew that this temporary position would be removed soon.

Yang Zhengshan ignored the two happy people and continued to make arrangements according to his mind: "Wu Chongzhe temporarily takes over the post of deputy commander and takes charge of Tenglong Vanguard."

"Yang Mingzhi temporarily takes over the post of deputy commander and takes charge of Tenglong Rear Guard."

"Luo Feiyu temporarily takes over the post of deputy commander and takes charge of Tenglong Left Guard."

"Yang Mingzhen temporarily takes over the post of deputy commander and takes charge of Tenglong Right Guard."

"Yang Minghao temporarily takes over the post of pacification and sets up the pacification office!"

"Han Fei temporarily takes over the post of experience and sets up the experience office!"

"Zhou Ren and Lu Wenhua are the governors. You should recruit all the clerks and runners of our guard office first!"

Everyone came forward to thank Yang Zhengshan for his appointment.

Everyone was overjoyed.

Others were fine, but the happiest ones were Han Fei, Zhou Ren and Lu Wenhua.

Both of them had no rank before, but now they were appointed as experience and general.

Experience is the seventh rank, and general is the eighth rank.

Although they are all minor officials, they are also official positions with grades.

In fact, for Han Fei and Lu Wenhua, this official position is really nothing. They are all warriors and can be appointed as centurions in the army.

But now for Yang Zhengshan, the most urgent task is to build the Weisi Yamen first so that the Weisi Yamen can operate normally, so he arranged such an official position for them first.

The four commanders are in charge of the four guards of Tenglong, front, back, left and right respectively, but now except for the Tenglong Vanguard, the other three guards are basically abolished.

"Who was in charge of the Tenglong Vanguard before?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

The Tenglong Vanguard still maintains a complete structure. The soldiers who were responsible for guarding the city before were the soldiers of the Tenglong Vanguard. And the Tenglong Vanguard has always been under the control of the Lan family.

Unfortunately, the soldiers are incompetent, and the generals are incompetent. In addition, Yang Zhengshan acted decisively and quickly. The Lan family was taken down by Yang Zhengshan before they could summon the soldiers of the Tenglong Vanguard.

The soldiers of Tenglong Vanguard were also suppressed directly.

Now there are about 800 soldiers of Tenglong Vanguard in the city, but they are all controlled in the camp.

"It's you!" A gray-haired guy stood up and said.

The Lan family can control Tenglong Vanguard mainly because they occupy several thousand households of Tenglong Vanguard. The commander in charge of Tenglong Vanguard in name is actually a puppet and doesn't care about anything.

But he is an old man of Tenglong Guard after all, and those soldiers must know him.

"I don't need to tell you what to do!"

"Your subordinate understands, and I will appease the soldiers and let them see the situation clearly!" This man is not stupid.

"Well, let's do it this way first, you all go and get busy!"

Yang Zhengshan waved his hand, and everyone bowed and left.

The next Tenglong Guard will definitely be in turmoil, but Yang Zhengshan is not worried about riots.

Yang Zhengshan overthrew the Lan family with thunderous means, which had already shocked all the people in Tenglong Guard. Moreover, he had 500 soldiers under his command, so he was not afraid that someone would jump out and make trouble at this time.

After arranging the affairs of the Weisi Yamen, Yang Zhengshan turned to the room where the three brothers of the Lan family were imprisoned.

The three brothers' scapulae were pierced and they were tied up.

When Yang Zhengshan entered the room, the three brothers had different expressions.

Lan Buqi saw Yang Zhengshan coming in and showed a pleading look.

Lan Buqun was full of resentment. If he hadn't blocked his mouth, he would probably have cursed.

As for Lan Buzheng, he had a calm face. There was no ripple in his eyes when he looked at Yang Zhengshan.

Looking at Lan Buzheng's eyes, Yang Zhengshan narrowed his eyes slightly.

In this case, the calmer he was, the deeper his thoughts were.

"Want to scold me?" Yang Zhengshan walked in front of Lan Buqun and asked.

"Woo woo woo~~" Lan Buqun stared at Yang Zhengshan with a face full of resentment.

"Your wife and children are next door!"

Yang Zhengshan said lightly.

Hearing this, Lan Buqun froze for a moment.

Yang Zhengshan ignored him, and the attendant beside him brought a chair. He sat down and signaled the attendant to take out the rag that was gagged.

"General, General!"

Lan Buqi called out as soon as the rag was taken away.

"Shut up!" Yang Zhengshan looked at him coldly.

Lan Buqi froze all over and stopped the prayer that was about to come out.

Lan Buqun was still full of resentment, but he did not curse, just stared at Yang Zhengshan.

As for Lan Buzheng, his eyes were still calm.
