After two consecutive days of court discussions, Liu Huang, who had not advocated peace talks, no longer objected, and Jiang Wanzai acquiesced to the results of the court discussions, and the empress dowager issued an order to send a peace delegation to contact Mongolia, willing to pay 300,000 yuan a year, pay a vassal to Yuan, and serve him with his son and nephew. At the same time, it was decreed that the king of Wei was crowned as the Shangzhu country, and the palace was opened with Sanyi, and 200,000 yuan was given and 30 horses were forged.

Clear-eyed people know that the purpose of crowning the king of Wei at this time is to make him pledge Mongolia, which is a matter of nine deaths and a lifetime, and the return to the country is even more far away, and everyone feels that there is no need to burn the cold stove, so the people who came to congratulate him were perfunctory, and they said goodbye after a cup of tea. But the people in the house felt that it was a big deal, and they were all excited, they all knew that their honor and disgrace were pinned on the prince, and he could only follow the light when he was rich. At this moment, Zhao Yu couldn't wait to slap his two big ears, and he realized that he was busy opening the mansion and tossing blindly.

It turns out that the royal family and the common people's families have to be separated when the children grow up, and the prince's house is called 'out of the cabinet', and the emperor of the Song Dynasty attaches great importance to the prince's exit, and the emperor needs to officially issue an edict and hold a ceremony to announce to the world to show that the prince has grown up. After the prince leaves the cabinet, he is the same as the courtiers of the foreign court, and he can participate in the emperor's court meeting. It is said that on the eve of leaving Lin'an, Empress Dowager Xie's decree was equivalent to giving the two kings the treatment of opening the palace, but he was stupid and stupid to think about opening the palace independently, and finally understood the reason why his 'nonsense' did not cause the courtiers to impeach.

What made Zhao Yu even more depressed was that according to the regulations, when the prince went out of the cabinet, he had to choose the courtiers to "do the job of counseling", and when he was evacuated from Lin'an, he hurriedly walked away, patronizing and fleeing for his life and did not choose subordinate officials for himself, but now not only did he not give himself the title of generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, but also did not send subordinate officials, so that the existence of his palace is more nominal than substantial, and it is completely to prepare for the pledge. But he didn't want to waste this opportunity, and he was happy to pretend to be confused, and he didn't care what others thought. The skeleton of the mansion has already been erected, but it is just a change of name, and now he only needs to act according to the plan step by step, he knows that this can boost the morale of the people in the mansion, dispel their remaining concerns, and eliminate the influence of 'rumors' from the outside world.

First of all, the Weiwang Mansion has carried out a big costume change, which has long been included in the plan, Zhao Yu knows that no matter what the organization, the unified clothing can give people a sense of collective honor and belonging. It was only because the processing methods in this era were completely manual, and the production of more than 5,000 sets of clothes was a huge project for the limited manpower of the palace, so it was not completed until this time.

The clothing of the whole government is mainly divided into two parts, one is the military uniform, and the other is the clothing of the staff and civilian personnel. The civilian personnel involved the General Bureau, the Medical Bureau, and the Senate Bureau, and their clothing was in traditional Confucian costumes, and there were no major changes, and the number of people was relatively small, and it was easy to solve; Needless to say, the guards and the guards wore military uniforms, and the Craftsman Bureau also adopted semi-military management.

Two sets of military uniforms per person, blue and white tone, the upper is a jacket with outer linen and inner silk, the style is a short shirt with right arrow sleeves, a wide belt of cowhide with copper buckles in the waist, wide trousers on the lower body, leggings on the calves, and hemp boots or straw sandals on the bottom of the feet. Wearing a red or blue scarf, of course, Zhao Hao, who was in charge of the design and stereotype, also made some changes in other small details, adding two lower pockets to the jacket, adding a badge and armband, and each person also had two pairs of socks and two underwear, a six-foot-long and two-foot-wide felt and a thin blanket as bedding, in addition to a kettle and a backpack for miscellaneous items.

As for why such nondescript military uniforms were made, Zhao Yu also had a hard time, because most of the fabrics used to make the clothes came from the fabrics on the merchant ships that Zhuang Shilin was requisitioned, and the materials were mainly blue and white, so the color of the clothing was determined. The fabric was relatively tight, so the long shirt was changed to a short one, and the cut material was not wasted, and the large pieces were used as clothes for the children in the old camp, and the small pieces were used as reinforcement patches for the elbows and knees that were easy to wear. Considering that the sailors walked less, the boots were saved, and the straw sandals were replaced with straw sandals.

As for the armor, although Zhao Yu 'cheated' some from Zhang Shijie, the number was far from enough, and there was no iron armor, only the soldiers on the navy and the spearmen, swords and shields of the infantry army and equipment. As for the oarsmen, helmsmen, etc., on the ship, and the crossbowmen in the infantry army, there were no second-line personnel. Zhao Hao thought that their main task was to protect themselves, and there were not many opportunities to go into battle, so they wanted to save it, but everyone felt that the guards were the face of the palace, which was too embarrassing, so they were issued with half-body cuirasses, otherwise the guards would have to go into battle shirtless.

The costumes of the generals and soldiers in the Song army are different, mainly to facilitate the distinction, and Zhao Yu is now poor, and he really can't make another clothes for them. But there is a poor way, and he thought of the badge. The badges of senior officers in the prefecture are red, while those of mid-ranking officers are blue, and the flag heads and soldiers are black, and of course each person's name, position, and unit number are written on it. In order to distinguish the military branches, the turban of the navy is blue, the infantry is red, the craftsman bureau is black, and the pro-guard is yellow (light yellow in the Song Dynasty is the special color of the royal family, and other yellows can be used). The armband is a symbol to distinguish the troops, indicating what you are doing in the army.

In fact, this is all caused by lack of money, Zhao Hao also wants everyone to wear more handsome, and they are all equipped with the best armor, but they have more than enough heart and not enough strength. Now he is still secretly glad that he is in the south, and a jacket can barely cope with the winter that was not cold in the past, otherwise a silk jacket per person can make him grow less white heads. And he is also apprehensive about the simple military uniform, worried that everyone will have opinions and turn good things into bad things.

But to Zhao Hao's surprise, everyone was quite satisfied, they thought that although the jacket was shorter, there was no longer a long placket, but it reduced the fetters and made the movements more flexible. In particular, I appreciate the two pockets on my clothes, which can hold a lot of things, and I don't have to carry my belongings in my arms and sleeves anymore. And badges and armbands can make it clear at a glance that they belong to the troops, classes, and what they do. This was welcomed by many soldiers with low literacy, who could not read much and could easily understand and recognize the symbols drawn on them.

For this result, Zhao Yu analyzed, the senior managers are aware of the financial situation of the mansion, and now they have done their best to distribute such clothes to everyone, so they understand what the prince is doing. And these officials didn't say anything, and the low-ranking officers and soldiers below naturally didn't complain when they saw that everyone was assigned the same things. The team from the village did not say anything, they had never given out clothes before, so they regarded this as a surprise, and even if there were some complaints and complaints, they were quickly drowned out by praise.

Although everyone in the house is happy, Zhao Yu still doesn't dare to take it lightly, he knows that everything seems to be normal in the house now, and all the work is carried out in an orderly manner, but there are also hidden worries, which is the salary problem.

The Song Dynasty implemented a conscription system, which means that military service is a profession that accepts government employment and earns money to support the family, rather than military service for the sake of obligation, and the government must of course pay military salaries. And now, although everyone is willing to stay in the house, and the house is only in charge of food, but Zhao Yu knows that in the era when the tradition and system of 'officials rely on salaries and soldiers rely on salaries' have been formed, this kind of harmony in the mansion will not last long, and there is always the possibility of mutiny or being co-opted by others.

And Zhao Yu didn't mention the matter of salary for a while ago, firstly, because there are too many places that need to spend money, and the money in his hand is limited, he doesn't dare to mention this matter, otherwise it is better not to say it if he can't do it; The second is that he also wants to see what these people who have taken refuge in him think, whether they will stop working without money, which can be regarded as a test. But now it's different, in order to recruit talents, the government has spent a lot of money to poach people, everyone does the same thing, some people get high salaries, but they are only full, and their hearts will naturally be unbalanced, and it is inevitable that they will have different hearts in the long run.

Zhao Hao has a deep understanding of this, he was not willing to go to such a remote place to realize his self-worth because he coveted the high salary offered by the company, and he has also experienced the resignation of technicians and even workers due to treatment problems several times, and has witnessed the tragic situation that the company ran out of funds and could not pay wages in an instant. He is always vigilant about this. Now that the money for the opening of the government has been allocated, he immediately put the matter of payment on the agenda.

Of course, with Zhao Yu's character, he will not act rashly, he also needs to study it, so as not to do the bad thing of breaking his pants and stretching his legs first, and in vain consuming the credit he has accumulated with great difficulty, so he first collected information about the salary system of the Song Dynasty, so as to understand it, and formulate the salary system of the palace accordingly.

It is said that the military system of the Song Dynasty was not complicated, including salaries, salaries, and gifts, rewards, and subsidies under various names. He received material money, monthly rations, and spring and winter clothes according to his rank and rank, and received money and food every month according to the actual position he was sent; Gifts, rewards and other related subsidies are fixed and unchanged, and some are irregular and indefinite, but they are all paid according to the rank of senior officer or military rank.

But Zhao Yu was defeated after only pondering for two days, he couldn't study anymore, and his brain became a pile of mush. In the previous life, it has long been said that the official system of the Song Dynasty was the most complex and chaotic, and it is indeed worthy of its name, and it is impossible to understand it without solid basic historical skills. If you want to figure it out thoroughly, you have to find a teacher to study hard, but he doesn't have that much spare time, and this is the basis for paying salaries, which makes him worry for a while.

Zhao Hao had also been an executive in his previous life, and he calmed down and thought that the salary system of the Song Dynasty was not the salary of the position plus the salary of the post as the basic salary compared to the modern salary system, supplemented by skills, performance salary, plus bonuses, as well as subsidies such as carriage and horse expenses, clothing expenses, travel expenses, and food subsidies, but the name was much richer than that of modern times. And now the implementation of the government is a supply system, what is lacking in food and housing, so it is completely possible to open another house on the basis of the two, anyway, everyone is relatively new when they have just established the mansion, and the court will not give themselves a penny in the future, they will all scoop food from a pot......
