Chapter 480: Old and Weak Women and Children
Ajinga was beaten half-dead and carried out, temporarily placed in the garrison office. His mother-in-law and concubine cried to death, and the family was so frightened that they hurried to the village to find Langzhong; Xu Sikui was locked up in the second hall of the River Hall by the new Tongzhi Master and the new Dusi, waiting for his family to collect money to redeem him, and Zhang Gui also seemed to have lost three souls and six souls when he came out of it......
A few thousand presidents on the north and south shores who had been guarding the outside and waiting for news, Shijingshan Qianzong, who had rushed to the general manager, and the general manager of Junchuan, all incurred around Zhang Gui, and learned that now there was only one thing left to donate money and then return to his hometown after illness, or go to Jinghai with the new acquaintance surnamed Wang's friend to serve in Jinghai, and they were dumbfounded.
In Chen Gong'an's opinion, there is no official in the world who doesn't like silver, and seeing that everyone was so frightened, he said self-righteously: "Ladies and gentlemen, whether it is Master Han or the new Dusi Yongxiang, in the final analysis, I still want silver." The little one thought that it was not difficult to do, and that as long as it could be done with silver, it was as great a bargain as a deal. How can there be a reason in the world that they are only allowed to ask for a price, and a few of you are not allowed to sit on the ground and pay back. β
"You're right!" Jun Chuanzhu pointed to the second room on the left, and said nervously: "You don't know why Ah Jingga was hit by the board. If you don't agree with each other, you will serve with a military stick and bargain, do you really think this is a deal? β
"Cool officer!"
"Be quiet, do you want to be beaten by the board too?"
"Sixth brother, everyone has put a knife rack on our brother's head, what do you say?"
"There is some truth in Shopkeeper Chen's words, otherwise, let's not rush to hand over our resumes to see us, and go to Master Han's family to find out the wind first."
"And then?" Mr. Chi Kitashi asked eagerly.
Mr. Shi Jingshan Qian groaned: "It is not easy for a few brothers to find this lack now, if you just donate a grace to return to your hometown, it will be difficult to recover in the future." In short, this silver must be spent, and Jinghai must not be able to go, as long as he can keep this errand now, even if he spends some money now, he will be able to earn it back sooner or later. β
"Can Master Han and that Yongxiang who just came here agree?"
"I don't know, I don't ask."
"What if they don't?"
Mr. Shi Jingshan weighed it, clenched his fists and said, "If they are not accommodating at all, then the brothers will go to Jinghai as they say." β
"Third child, are you really going to go?" Mr. Kitashore asked in surprise.
"Marching and fighting will kill people, I am the same as you, you think I am not afraid, but now there is another way?" Mr. Shi Jingshan paused, and then said: "As the saying goes, trees move the dead and people live, and their lack of accommodation does not mean that other officials are not accommodating. In Gu'an, in the river Yamen, they have the final say. But if we get to Jinghai, you and I naturally don't have to worry about them anymore, as long as we serve the officials on Jinghai's side well, it shouldn't be difficult to find a transfer. β
"But if you go to Jinghai, you have to fight!"
"The surname Han and that Yongxiang are just sure that we don't dare to go, since they don't give my brother a few ways to live, then a few brothers will let go!"
"The third brother is right, wealth is in danger, the master is out of the way, don't say that there is not so much silver, even if there is silver, he will not give it to them!"
"Old Five, you can't say death, it's still the same sentence just now, first find his family members to find out, if you can spend some money to stay in office, after all, the chaos is not a joke, Jinghai can not go or don't go."
"Okay, I'll ask first."
Mr. Qian on the north bank did not dare to delay, and volunteered to go to the river hall to inquire about Ji Da Jier, who was guarding the door, Ji Da Ji Er did not dare to talk nonsense, so he simply invited Wang Qianli out.
Wang Qianli asked him about his intentions, and said without thinking: "Brother Yu, it's not that Wang doesn't help you, but Master Han and Master Yongxiang have already spoken, and it's easy to stay in office and not be punished, and you don't even need to pay a tael of silver, as long as you go to Jinghai with Wang early tomorrow morning." β
"Master Wang, can't you be accommodating at all?"
"This is military affairs, can military affairs be accommodating?"
"Okay, let's go back and think about it first."
"Hurry up and think about it, you must think it clearly, in another hour, Master Han and Master Yongxiang will come out to check and check."
"Master Xie Wang mentioned it, and I will prepare for it."
Wang Qianli didn't care how many taels of silver he could give, and he didn't care if he could go to Jinghai with him early tomorrow morning, and after sending him away, he didn't rush back to the ya, but went to the overcrowded school field for a turn, and quietly inspected the subordinates they had gathered, and then returned to the river hall hall with a frown.
"Chisato, what's wrong?" Han Xiufeng asked curiously.
"Fourth master, there are a lot of people from outside, but there are few soldiers."
"There are a lot of them, how many are there?"
"There are three or four thousand, one by one, the oldest is estimated to be fifty or sixty, and the youngest is still breastfeeding." Wang Qianli looked back at Shi Zanqing, and said with a bitter face: "You two will know when you go out to see, where are the soldiers, it's like a group of people called Huazi." β
Han Xiufeng didn't feel strange, put down the teacup and said, "What is expected, not to mention the green camp, the Eight Banners are estimated to be not much better." It is said that there are few soldiers in the Xishan Jianrui Battalion who can fight, and there are tens of thousands of veterans and family members who can't go into battle and can't fight. β
"Fourth master, no matter how many old and weak women and children there are in Xishan Jianrui Camp, we don't need to take care of them, but what about these old and weak women and children in Heying, we can't take them all to Jinghai."
"Good question, in fact, Uncle Shi and I were discussing this matter just now."
"You got it?"
"What do you think," Han Xiufeng smiled, turned around and said, "Uncle Shi, let's just say that the silt river beach between No. 136 and No. 251 on the south bank will be used to house those old and weak women and children outside." β
"Zhixing, I can be the master of those river beach silt land to house the old and weak women and children outside, but I can only rent them to plant according to the routine. In addition, if they rent the land, they are no longer the people of your river camp, and they have to register and settle down for naturalization. β
"Settle down, settle down, these are easy to say, I guess they can't ask for it."
Shi Zanqing looked up at Yongxiang, who was still standing aside, and sighed lightly: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you settle down or not, whether you become naturalized or not, it will cause trouble to the local area." But if you don't give them naturalization, your river camp will become a tuntian. β
"I understand this truth, in short, all the trouble Uncle Shi, if it weren't for you to help clean up the aftermath, I wouldn't know how to wipe this ass."
"Don't talk about labor, who will let me, the governor of the north bank, take charge of the local government affairs of your south bank."
The most headache problem was solved, Han Xiufeng thanked him again, and after thanking him, he couldn't help but sigh: "This incident reminded me, you are now helping me to settle those old and weak women and children outside, in the future, there will be more brave soldiers in the river camp, and they will all marry wives and have children, who can help settle those soldiers' families at that time?" β
Shi Zanqing didn't expect Han Xiufeng to say this, and after thinking for a while, he smiled bitterly: "If the military system is not changed, it will be difficult to return!" But it's okay, you can last for three or five years if you resettle those old and weak women and children outside, send the original Qiu Ba to Jinghai, and re-recruit and train them from scratch. β
"What about three or five years from now?"
"When the time comes, maybe you will have been promoted by then, and you won't have to worry about it anymore."
"No, even if I am no longer a battalion official by then, I can't leave the trouble to the successor camper, let alone the court."
"Could it be that you have a solution?"
"What solution can I have, but I would like to see if I can make it clear to those young men when recruiting that the salary will not be deducted when I come to serve in my river camp, and I will not only be present in the future to pay the salary, but also hand over the money to the soldiers. In the future, military attachΓ©s such as the general commander, the general general, and the additional foreign commissioner will only be in charge of training and fighting, and will no longer handle money and food. β
Han Xiufeng took a sip of tea from the cup, and then said: "Besides, there is a time limit for serving in Heying, and you can be relieved and returned to the field after serving for five years." During the period of service, they may marry and have children, but their wives and children are not allowed to enter the camp with the army. In short, we can't snowball like we are now, rolling more and more people in the camp. β
"This is a solution, but this is against the laws of the ancestors and is not in line with the military system."
"I don't care so much, I'll give the emperor a fold first, and see if the emperor can approve it."
