Chapter 9 Cooperation

Dongfang Huajin walked over: "Marshal, military advisor, I just have something to look for you, can you go to a place with me?" I have something important to discuss, something that is good for the barracks! ”

Afraid that people would think she was very strange, she hurriedly took a breath and finished speaking. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

She seemed a little weird like this, she looked.

However, out of trust in her, the marshal and the military advisor still did not say anything, and happily followed her to the clearing in front of the cliff.

Oriental Painting Brocade was very calm and put forward his own suggestions.

The marshal and the military advisor's eyes sparkled, and they quickly exchanged glances, and they both saw guilt and chagrin in each other's eyes.

The marshal sighed deeply: "Alas, why didn't I think of it in the past? That's a good idea, it's very good! Putting a tent here is indeed much safer than today's barracks! At the very least, you just need to hold the left and right sides! ”

He sighed very helplessly: "Painting brocade, now the treasury is in difficulty, and the military department is controlled by relatives and deducts military expenses." The military expenses issued to our Hukouling military camp every year are pitiful, and the soldiers are not well fed and clothed, even if you have your donation of tens of thousands of taels of silver, you can only solve part of the bedding, shoes and medicines, and you have to move some out to build weapons. The food of the soldiers could not be solved, and there was really no extra money to use to build a wall. ”

Such a long wall, if you use green bricks, it will cost at least 10,000 taels of silver, right? If you use mud walls, it's too unsturdy. Although the rain in spring and summer in the Hukouling area is not much, every time it rains, it is particularly violent. The winds of winter and autumn are very violent. If the mud wall is used, it is estimated that it will not take more than a year before it will collapse.

Otherwise, he would have led the soldiers to surround the barracks with mud walls. Of course, it was also because his time as the commander of the Hukouling Barracks was too short, but it was less than a year. If he had been operating here for many years, he would have surrounded the soldiers even if it was a mud wall.

The previous marshal was a person who liked Yiyantang, and the relationship between that person's family and the Tang family was not very good. Therefore, he likes to do everything with him, and no matter what he proposes, that person will oppose it. After a long time, he can only "abide by his duty" and no longer "exceed his authority to give orders".

For example, Dongfang Qi'an has made so many military exploits, and has stayed in the Hukouling military camp for more than ten years, but it is still just a small flag thing. If he had been a marshal a long time ago, this situation would definitely have been investigated, and it would never have been allowed!

When Dongfang Huajin heard this, he couldn't help but be very surprised.

Actually, it would be so embarrassing?!

In this way, that is to say, if she does not donate money to the barracks, the soldiers of the Hukouling military camp will run out of ammunition and food? !

Dongfang Huajin couldn't help but blurt out in surprise: "Since it is so difficult, why didn't the marshal launch a fund-raising operation to raise some food for the soldiers in the barracks?" ”

It is said that the Tang family, the Song family, and the Ye family are not small families. These three families are all rich and powerful families, so they never thought about asking these families to donate a little money? Or, use the connections of these families to organize fundraising?

Tang Ze was very magical, and he understood the question in her eyes.

"I'm ashamed." His face couldn't help but turn red, and he explained embarrassedly: "It's not so easy to raise donations, the richer the family, the more reluctant they are to pay out." Let's just talk about me, although I am a general of Zhenguo, I can be regarded as a weighty person in the Tang family. However, I am only the second son, not the future head of the family. The amount of money I can dispose of is quite limited, and it will never exceed three thousand taels in a year. ”

The military advisor nodded and said good things for the marshal: "That's right, the marshal has actually not known how much money he has subsidized for those disabled soldiers over the years. However, there were more than 50,000 soldiers in the barracks, and after a big battle, hundreds of them were martyred or seriously injured. The marshal's money, even if he made up all of it, would be a drop in the bucket. ”

Tang Ze was sad: "That's right, I only have a hundred taels of silver a month, and the dowry of my mother and wife is not very rich." Besides, as a man, as a son and as a husband, how can I use their dowry? Even if you grit your teeth and use it, it is still a drop in the bucket, and how many problems have been solved. ”

The treasury is not full, which is actually secondary, because it has not yet reached the point of emptiness. However, the annihilation of the ministers made the border soldiers everywhere miserable. If we do not solve the problem of food and weapons, when the next big war comes, the entire Hukouling military camp will most likely face a huge crisis of annihilation under the conditions of hunger and cold, and under the condition of extreme instability in the morale of the army!

The military advisor also sighed again and again, although he was the son of the founding father, but his mother and father were both "misers" and valued silver money very seriously. At the end of the year, he was able to withdraw no more than five thousand taels of silver. His son Ye Tian can only withdraw three thousand taels. The sum of the two is only eight thousand taels of silver, and this is still the maximum limit.

In fact, since his mother learned that he and Ye Tian used their own money to subsidize the soldiers in the barracks, they have strictly restricted the use of the two. For a year, only one thousand taels of silver was given to one person at most. However, for other food, clothing, and tonics, my mother and father would send a lot of them.

It's not so easy to ask for money.

As for Song Ci, he is also powerless. The Dingguo Marquis Mansion is a noble family, with a lot of power, but it is not a wealthy family. In addition to their respective silver, there are more than a dozen farms, shops, and houses. All the inheritance, if converted into silver, is only a hundred thousand taels of silver.

Song Ci's father's generation had five brothers and an inheritance of 100,000 taels, and if it was divided, each family would only have about 20,000. Her grandmother and mother had a lot of dowries, but the dowry was the foundation of a woman's foothold, and it could not be used unless it was absolutely necessary.

The military advisor frowned, and briefly told Dongfang Huajin about these internal information. The reason why he told her was because he subconsciously thought that maybe she would have a way to help the Hukouling military camp share his worries. On the other hand, he felt that she could be trusted, and such a large amount of money could be donated to the barracks without hesitation, and her character and temperament were trustworthy.

Dongfang Huajin's heart was sour, very uncomfortable, and after thinking about it, he proposed: "Marshal, military advisor, I have a proposal, I don't know if it's appropriate?" ”

The military advisor's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly smiled and said, "You say, let's hear it!" ”

Oriental Painting Brocade: "I propose to dedicate the production method of the telescope to the emperor, so that the marshal can be exchanged for military merits, so that the emperor can take a high look at the marshal and worry a little more about the military expenses of the Hukouling military camp!" In addition, I propose that the marshal, the military advisor, and Brother Song, the three of you join forces to specialize in the manufacture and trading of glass. Simply, jointly open a pharmacy again, focusing on the hemostatic powder. One percent of the annual profits will be used to fund the Hukouling military camp until the marshal leaves office! ”

Hearing her words, the military advisor couldn't help but have his eyes lit up: "This is a good idea, but the secret recipe is all yours, and you should be counted!" ”

The marshal nodded vigorously: "That's right, without your share, this will definitely not work!" Otherwise, I will pay the capital with the military advisor and Song Ci, and each person will come up with 10,000 taels of silver, and you will come up with a secret recipe and give you seventy percent of the shares! ”

The secret recipe is priceless, Tang Ze sincerely thinks that the three of them account for one percent, which is enough. In this way, he still felt guilty, as if he had taken advantage of it. He believes that in a year, the profit of glass alone will not be less than 30,000 taels of silver!

Glass, that must be a profiteering thing!

Dongfang Huajin was taken aback, thought about it carefully, and hurriedly and firmly refused: "No, I will be at most twenty percent!" Otherwise, I don't want it! ”

The hearts of the marshal and the military advisor couldn't help but be very shocked, and they had more good feelings and respect for this little girl.

The marshal's attitude was also very resolute: "That's good, just take a step back, you thirty percent!" If you don't agree, we don't want this secret recipe! ”

The military advisor also hurriedly nodded and agreed: "That's right, there is no reason for us to take advantage of it in vain, even if your family is the richest man in the Cui Kingdom, we can't be so brazen!" What's more, your family's life is not easy either, so don't refuse! ”

The final distribution of shares is as follows: Oriental Painting Brocade Sancheng, Marshal, Military Division and Song Ci, two percent per person, and the remaining one percent will be used to set up a relief fund.

In the future, all the soldiers who go out of the Hukouling barracks, as long as they have good character and encounter any obstacles that cannot be overcome, can come to ask for help. The money for the aid comes out of this relief fund and is given to the barracks, which is naturally the case. This relief fund is also available to others in need, but it will be very limited. Moreover, all four must agree.

The relief fund is mainly set up for soldiers in the barracks and disabled soldiers who have been discharged from the army.

Dongfang Huajin also proposed: "It's better to set up a glass factory and a pharmaceutical factory in Shuixian." I know a very subtle bookkeeping method, and I can take the position of the head of the bookkeeper, which is set up in Shuixian County for easy management. ”

When the marshal and the military advisor heard this, they couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, and the military advisor couldn't help but ask, "Really? The bookkeeping method is different from the general one, right? ”

Oriental Painting: "Yes, there is a big difference. This bookkeeping method, called double-entry bookkeeping, takes the balance relationship between assets and equity as the basis of bookkeeping, and for each economic business, it is necessary to register in two or more accounts that are linked to each other, and systematically reflect the results of changes in the movement of funds. The double-entry accounting method can comprehensively and interclosely reflect the overall picture of various economic transactions, and the accuracy of account records can be checked by using various internal connections and trial balance formulas. ”

She is also empathetic, and describes professional terms such as economic business, real estate, equity, and capital movement in simple language. He picked up another branch and demonstrated on the ground how to write Arabic numerals, as well as four arithmetic. What is called a "factory" is naturally explained.

The military advisor and the marshal could not help but be very surprised, and there was a frenzy of joy in their hearts, rushing and cheering.

The marshal sincerely admired: "The bookkeeping methods, numbers and operations you mentioned are indeed very subtle, far ahead of this era. Where did you learn such a magical method? ”

Dongfang Huajin replied very calmly: "Naturally, I learned it from my master, but my master vaguely mentioned that his master doesn't seem to be from this world." Well, it's much more mysterious than that worldly master! ”

After all, she has too many secrets, and her words and deeds in the future may be very different from this era. Hide, that can't be hidden, unless she can really be like this native ancient, strictly abide by the three obedience and four virtues. Otherwise, over time, it will always show up inadvertently. Rather than being grabbed in the future, it is better to find an excuse and simply say it yourself.

Her decision was right, in fact, what she didn't know was that in the eyes of the marshal, the military advisor, Song Ci and Ye Tian, and even in the eyes of many people in Cuizhuwan, in the eyes of the Ma family, she was already an outlier.

An incomprehensible, elusive woman.

Her existence is unique.

The marshal and the military advisor quickly exchanged glances, and they both saw shock and surprise in each other's eyes.

More mysterious than the world's superiors?

Could it be that it is a fairy?!

It must be like this, it must be a fairy!

In this way, the insight and ability of Oriental Painting Brocade may be unparalleled in the world? After all, the master in her mouth has already wandered away, and she doesn't care about ordinary things. Or, it's not a cloud tour, but a fairy tour?

The marshal nodded seriously: "Very good, set up the factory in Shuixian County and take care of it nearby." Shuixian is a good place, with beautiful mountains and rivers and outstanding people. It's not far from Hukou Ridge, and it only takes two days to ride a fast horse. In the future, when we are old, we can also settle down in Shuixian County for the elderly. ”

Between Shuixian County and Hukouling Border Pass, there is a small county called Shanxian County, which is only half a day's journey away from Hukouling. Speaking of which, it can be regarded as his sphere of influence, which is much better than building a factory in the capital at the foot of the powerful Son of Heaven!

The point is, they don't actually have much talent on hand. Oriental Painting Brocade can manage the account room by itself, which is really good news for them.

As for the "workers" she said, that is, the guys, and the nursing home, it is easy to find. So many veterans, able-bodied disabled, everything.

The marshal asked tentatively: "Painting, among the veterans, can those with disabilities be hired?" ”

Oriental Painting Brocade: "As long as they can take care of themselves, they can be hired, and when the time comes, they can be arranged to dry medicines, grind medicines, clean medicinal materials, etc." He also told them what the assembly line operation is and the benefits of the assembly line operation, "When the time comes, let them be responsible for one of the procedures, and there is no need to worry about the prescription leaking." ”

After a pause, he said, "As for those who are too badly injured and have no ability to take care of themselves, we can give money and food." Or, simply set up a welfare home for veterans with severe disabilities. When the time comes, find some light jobs and let them do some work properly! ”

The military advisor nodded approvingly: "Well, this proposal is very good, this is to open a store for business, not to open a charity hall." Marshal, there are times when you have to learn to be hard-hearted. When the judgment continues to suffer from its chaos, the lesson of Shengmien fighting Mi Hatred can be heard everywhere. ”

Regarding the establishment of a new military camp, Dongfang Huajin made a few more suggestions, and did not pay attention to them anymore.

Dongfang Qi'an's body was too poor to go a long way, so he decided to recuperate in the military camp for a few days and wait until his health was better before leaving. Oriental painting brocade also stayed, and it was more than ten days to stay.

Dongfang Huajin persuaded him several times, hoping that Dongfang Qi'an could excuse himself from the battlefield because he was too injured and could not go to the battlefield again, so he would simply retire from the army by taking this opportunity.

However, Dongfang Qi'an was unwilling: "I won't leave, I have been a soldier for more than ten years, so I have to mix hundreds of households." In this way, when I return home in the future, I will be looked down upon, and the people in the old house and the people outside can not unscrupulously oppress your mother and your brothers and sisters. ”

The matter of daughter Xiaocao being forcibly married to Mafu, and the daughter became a matter of divorce at a young age, which had a great impact on Dongfang Qi'an. He has always kept his duty, and he doesn't like to fight or rob, as if he has changed as a different person.

"The aura of heroic glory is forged by blood and bones, as well as the worries and tears of relatives." Oriental painting brocade was full of solemnity, muttering to himself, sighing deeply in his heart.

Heroes, not so easy to be.

The marshal gave Dongfang Qi'an a three-month leave and asked him to go home to recuperate.

When passing by the county seat of Shuixian County, when she took her father to a restaurant for dinner, she heard rumors about the Ma family: the Ma family, the richest man in Shuixian County, is now notorious in Shuixian County and is spurned and alienated by the world.

The root cause, she also knew, was that when Ye Tian came to Shui County last time, he deliberately spread the news of the Ma family. The Ma family was originally rich and unkind, and they had bullied many people, but now under Ye Tian's vigorous publicity, it has aroused a huge power of public opinion. This kind of power, like the tsunami, overwhelms the mountains and shakes the earth.

Before Ye Tian left, Ma Chenggong and Ma Zhitu were beaten up, and then they were imprisoned again. Therefore, Dongfang Huajin went to the barracks, and Mrs. Ma didn't know about it at all. It came too suddenly, and it caught her off guard.

By the time she came back to her senses, things had reached a point out of control, and the rumors had already spread throughout the county and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. There is definitely no way to suppress it!

Song Ci, Ye Tian and Marshal all sent letters to the Ma family respectively.

As mentioned in the letter, there are thorns in the soft, and with the personality of the head of the Ma family and the eldest young master, even if he knows that it is a pit, he will jump down.

After living in the village for a few days, Dongfang Huajin felt all kinds of discomfort. All kinds of troubles, big and small, are coming.

For the vicious-mouthed women in the village, Oriental Painting Brocade implements the strategy of radish and stick; The best way to deal with pig teammates and vicious relatives is to kick them away and stay away!

If you go the ordinary way, you can't get out of trouble! For example, if you don't separate your family, the people in the five rooms will always be wantonly oppressed and humiliated! Not to mention being a cow or a horse, the girls in the fifth room are at risk of being sold at any time!

Oriental Painting's strategy for family members is to guide them slowly.

In addition to her mother, several of her siblings, including her sister-in-law, listened to her words. Her intentional or unintentional guidance, like that trickle, bit by bit, slowly moistened everyone's hearts and gradually took root in their hearts. Someday, it will thrive and become a big tree.

As for the people in the old house, except for the big house, the rest of the family, including the grandparents, she didn't have any resentment. However, they did not treat those people as relatives, but put them in the position of "distant relatives who are not close".

If you hate this thing, you will hurt yourself if you have too much.

So far, the people she regards as enemies are not only the people of the Ma family, but also the uncle's family. In addition, there should be one or two families who have been oppressing her mother and siblings, and those two families are also very close to the eldest aunt's family.

A cousin's child attracted the attention of Oriental Painting.

Koizumi, Oriental Koizumi, five years old. The biological mother died, and although the stepmother was not a poisonous woman, she was okay with Xiaoquan'er's face. In terms of food and clothing, it seems that there is not much difference from the two children born to the stepmother. However, Dongfang Huajin was keenly aware that the stepmother used cold violence against Xiaoquan'er.

Moreover, every once in a while, he will secretly carry Xiaoquan'er on his back, open a small stove for his children, and make good food and drink. He will also seize all kinds of opportunities to say good things for Xiaoquan'er in front of Xiaoquan'er's father, but in fact it is all kinds of instigation, so that Xiaoquan'er's father has all kinds of misunderstandings about him, and gradually becomes disappointed and disgusted. The ultimate goal is to let Xiao Quan'er's father want Xiao Quan'er's son to die!

What a vicious woman, gentle and kind on the surface, and very loving to her stepson. In fact, the heart is like a snake and scorpion. Such a woman is much worse and more difficult to deal with than the wicked person with a bad reputation!

In this world, the most powerful weapon that hurts people is not the sword, but the cold violence that kills people without seeing blood. There is also hidden behind the cold violence, the invisible killing move, which is much more powerful than the bright sword!

For Oriental Koizumi, Oriental painting brocade is inexplicable, and there is a sense of intimacy.

Dongfang Xiaoquan, also inexplicably, wants to get close to the sister of Oriental Painting Brocade.

Everything is fate
