Chapter 205: Reluctantly accepted
Tian Jingye thought for a while, and then thought of another one for him, he said: "Our Duan family here is a Jiangmen family. He has many retired sergeants from the imperial court, all of whom have been on the battlefield for a long time, and can give some to his cousin, we are going to the wilderness, we have to deal with wolves, tigers and leopards, and we have to deal with the local natives, what if we don't have our own strong escort team, besides, didn't the emperor allow you to establish an army in Nanyang? ”
Chen Wenhui has to admit that she likes this one very much. These veteran retired sergeants are so easy to use, better than the martial arts masters she recruited on the rivers and lakes, and they have experience. Those who have seen blood are more suitable for the law of the jungle.
However, Chen Wenhui was very calm and said: "Cousin, I think you also know that I have a good relationship with King Jin because of the flood relief in Jiangnan. With the King of Jin there are two good brothers of the King of Jin, one of them is the second son of Zhongyi Gong, Zhao Chongyi, he is now also a general of the imperial court, and he has repeatedly made military exploits, when he returned to the capital before, he also handed me some retired soldiers, all of whom made meritorious contributions in the war of the barbarians, and I was worried about how to settle it. ”
Now Zitian Jingye is dumbfounded, what can I do? I think this is still a treasure, and people are still worried about how to place it. However, what Wen Hui said was all about things. Tian Jingye and Zhao Chongyi are also good friends, and when Zhao Chongyi returned to the capital, the two also got together for drinks many times. Zhao Chongyi has always been worried, his ".
There is no place for some of the retired comrades. Even, he took out all the money he had gained from the war, the treasures he had taken, and the rewards he had received, and prepared to settle those comrades. Let's put it this way. If the relationship between two people is good. Zhao Chongyi's cheeky boy. It is really possible to entrust someone to take care of Chen Wenhui. Because Chen Wenhui treats the people under her well, she gives a lot of monthly money, thoughtful benefits, and is famous for her generosity.
Tian Jingye was a little discouraged and said, "Then what should I do? I really don't have what you're looking for here. ”
Chen Wenhui sneered and said: "Forget it, I can't take it too seriously, it's just some silver, why do I want so much for a girl's family, if it's not to go out to play." I don't want to worry about that. In this way, in order not to let the second brother and the Hei family mention my opinion, I will reluctantly accept your two conditions and give you a preferential price. It's just twelve taels of silver. ”
When Tian Jingye heard that he could drop so much, he couldn't be happier. Busy thank you said: "Good sister, my brother will definitely listen to your dispatch in the future, thank you for accepting these people, thank you for helping my brother with this." ”
Chen Yuanheng couldn't help but laugh out loud, what kind of world is this. This gives talent to others, and it also gives others silver. And thank others for taking it. This daughter of her own, she is obviously thirsty for talent, especially short of people, she can think of any way, and now people are going to send talents, and she actually said that she reluctantly accepted it.
Not to mention, Wen Hui actually recovered Tian Jingye like this, which is really gratifying.
Chen Wenhui was not weak at all, and said, "Thank you, aren't you my cousin?" I don't help you, who will help you. Now let's talk about the cost of these people. ”
Tian Jingye was stunned: "Why is there still a cost?" ”
Chen Wenhui said: "These people are far away in northern Shaanxi, far away from the capital, these people migrated from those three counties, this does not need to eat and drink?" Don't need clothes? Don't you need to take a car or boat? How can there be no fees? My cousin is really a noble boy who doesn't know how to be economic. ”
Tian Jingye couldn't let his cousin look down, especially such a young cousin, he immediately said: "It turns out that my cousin is talking about this fee." I know that. Although I grew up in brocade and never suffered since I was a child, I still understand this chorus. Otherwise, the elders in the family would not be able to trust me and let me bear this burden. Moreover, some time ago, Cousin Wenlin came to me and asked me and Cousin Bai to go to those three counties with him to move the people. At that time, I really wanted to go, but my grandmother refused, and in order to appease me, she sent two of our chief officials to help Cousin Wenlin. Cousin Wenlin's progress over there is so smooth, and there is also the credit of the two elders in our house. ”
This Wen Hui knows. The magistrates are very difficult to entangle, although the second brother went over on the emperor's order, but the second brother is not their boss, just the lord of a city in Nanyang that has not yet been built, can he manage them? But the chief officials in the eldest princess's mansion are different, they are serious five-grade officials in the imperial court, which are much more than the three seven-grade county orders. Also, the eldest princess is in the background, and she can talk to the emperor directly. Moreover, everyone knows that the eldest princess is older than the emperor and is the eldest elder in the clan, and the emperor gives the eldest princess a lot of face. Therefore, with the coordination of these two chiefs, Chen Wenlin's affairs were handled extremely smoothly.
Tian Jingye said: "Since we bought the people, of course we have to pay for these people. It is impossible to let my cousin suffer this loss. I don't know, how did my cousin pay? ”
Chen Wenhui said: "I have calculated all these people. There is a meal along the way, and it's not a day or two. First from northern Shaanxi to the capital, then from the capital to Shanghai, then to Xinguang City, and then to Nanyang. It's been a long journey. Originally, there was such a migration in the imperial court, and the people prepared their own rations. If the people bring more food, they can still insist on reaching it, but if they are poor and bring less food, many will starve to death on the road. I think these people are useful, we just hope that there are many people, where are we willing to lose manpower. After all, we're going to Nanyang. The land is vast and sparsely populated, and there are no people to reclaim the wasteland, so how can we build a city and build a foundation? Therefore, this loss must be saved as much as possible. Besides, I, as a girl, still don't want to watch the people suffer, and I don't want to make contributions for us and let the innocent people die. The court has given them to us, and we can only let them live a better life than this, but we can't make up our own murders. Therefore, I prepared rice, flour, and meat for everyone. For this, I mobilized a lot of meat and grain from Jiangnan along the way, and asked the people from the Chen Family Restaurant to send people to cook it, so that if the food is good, people can get less sick and can persist in long-distance migration. However, although I am well prepared, if people eat whole grains, coupled with the fatigue of running around and not adapting to the water and soil, they will definitely get sick. If we let the people go unchecked like the court did in the past, or let them pay for the doctors themselves, someone will definitely die. That's not what we want to see. Therefore, I invited the Black Family's Alchemy Hall, as well as the doctors in the hospital, spent their wages to accompany these people, and also mobilized a large number of medicinal materials and commonly used pills, so as to ensure that the disease can be treated in time. ”
Tian Jingye was stunned when he heard it, and couldn't help but admire: "My cousin is really thoughtful, and her heart is really kind." It's good to do this, it must have taken a lot of effort, cousin's ability is really good, so many things, it's easy to say, and it's not easy to do every one. For example, how can 200,000 people eat meat be mobilized? The imperial court supports the army every year, and the problem of military grain transportation is a big problem. The court has a headache, and my cousin can prepare it properly in the past few days. It's really impressive. ”
Chen Wenhui is not modest, this is the time to express Xiàn, otherwise, how to manage these four cities in the future when he comes to Nanyang?
Chen Wenhui said: "Kung fu is to do a lot, so during this period of time, you are arguing about interests, but I am busy with my feet not touching the ground." Let's not talk about that, let's talk about the cost. In this way, the cost of eating for each person is a little larger, which is about six taels of silver. These are all accounts, and when we get to Nanyang, we will settle them specifically. If you return more, you will inevitably have to make up for the less. ”
Tian Jingye hurriedly said: "It must be, this is as it should be." ”
Chen Wenhui continued: "In addition to eating, because the weather is getting cooler, I also prepare four sets of clothes for everyone, first, wear clean and comfortable clothes, maintain hygiene, so that people can get less sick and reduce losses." Second, these people will be grateful to us when they get these clothes, and they will work together to build a foundation with us when they come to Nanyang in the future. This order is a bit big, and only our Chen family's Cuijin Building in the capital can make it, so I gave them the order. You can settle the settlement with Cuijin Building at that time. I've already paid my part, and I've paid for the black family. As for the second brother's, it shouldn't have to be paid, it was originally his. ”
Tian Jingye hurriedly looked at Chen Yuanheng. Chen Yuanheng hurriedly said: "I haven't taken care of the family's business, even your third aunt hasn't taken care of it, there are shopkeepers below, and when it's time, you send the housekeeper and the shopkeeper of Cuijin Building to settle the bill." ”
Tian Jingye thought about it, the old men and ladies of the mansion, which one personally manages the business, isn't it all handed over to the shopkeeper? Just go back and send a butler.
Chen Wenhui said: "In addition to these, there is also the money after arriving in Nanyang, which is the tool money used by these people. They were supposed to bring their own tools. But first, I'll pitch a message with you. Actually, the black family's forging skills are very good. The farm tools they forged and designed were more advanced than those of our Dachu, and they were used to farm with half the effort, and the tools used to build houses and cities were even more wonderful. So, I built yì, and we spent money to let the people of the black family forge it. Anyway, mine, and my second brother's are like this. By the way, don't you still have sergeants? The black family's weapons are also very well forged, and they are cheaper, so I won't say much about this, anyway, it's a matter for the future, as for whether you choose the products of the black family, it's your business. You go and talk to the people of the Black Family yourself. (To be continued......)
