Chapter 121: Li Ge's Worries
While the three of them were talking, a maid came in and served tea to the three of them, and then quietly retreated.
Yang Feng took a sip of tea, and then said leisurely: "Lord Wu and Lord Lan, I guess the two of you also know that this official has also done some small business in Nanjing, right?" ”
Wu Zhenliang and Lan Shanyou laughed at the same time, and Wu Zhenliang's eyes flashed with a hint of envy and nodded: "This is naturally known, I heard that Lord Yang and Wei Guogong and British Duke also had some misunderstandings, and it was also because of business." ”
Yang Feng shook his head helplessly, he looked at how he felt that there was a hint of schadenfreude in the smiles of these two people.
"Exactly!" Lan Shanyou also said: "I heard that Lord Yang specializes in trafficking glass and various treasures from overseas to sell in Nanjing, which can be said to be a daily gold, which is why he has pulled up such a dare to fight." ”
Get...... From this person's tone, Yang Feng smelled a strong sour smell.
But it's no wonder, with Yang Feng from the modern society to get the glass gradually spread from Nanjing to the surrounding areas, Yang Feng's name has gradually become known, not to mention, in the past three months, Yang Feng from the east to Shun Yinlou has received more than 200,000 taels of silver, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a daily gold. It's no wonder that Lan Shanyou would speak in such a sour tone.
Yang Feng smiled slightly, and said disapprovingly: "The two adults don't know, the risk at sea is very huge, from my Daming to O'Barro, five of the ten ships of cargo can arrive and return safely, that is God bless." The world only saw that the official had made a huge amount of silver in Nanjing, but who would have realized that these things were all transferred by Yang from O'Barro, which was thousands of miles away, and it can be said that these silver were summoned by countless sailors and men with their lives. ”
Yang Feng said this, but Lan Shanyou and Wu Zhenliang were speechless.
People are right, this silver is exchanged for people's lives, if you are not convinced, you can go to Obaro to sell it, no one will stop you.
After a while, Lan Shanyou said a little stupidly: "Lord Yang specially told Lan and Lord Wu about this today, right?" ”
"Of course not." Yang Feng smiled slightly, revealing his snow-white teeth, and said slowly: "This official intends to open a branch in Zhenjiang Mansion, which is responsible for selling glass and some gadgets, I hope the two adults can take care of it more." ”
"Lord Yang is going to open a new store in Zhenjiang Mansion?"
Wu Zhenliang and Lan Shanyou glanced at each other, and their eyes showed joy at the same time.
"It is precisely that Zhenjiang Mansion is backed by Caoyun, and it is also the intersection of Yangzhou, Liyang and Changzhou Prefecture, and it is also an important transportation hub, so it is also necessary to set up a store here. Of course, the rules and regulations understand that they will follow the rules when they spend money, so they can rest assured. ”
Yang Feng said it so clearly and so "on the road", Wu Zhenliang and Lan Shanyou naturally couldn't pretend to be confused anymore. As the prefect, Wu Zhenliang took the lead in nodding: "As a parent of a place, this official naturally hopes that the local people and gentry can use good things. ”
"Thank you, two adults!" Yang Feng knew that this was done as soon as he heard it, and he stood up and thanked the two of them with a smile.
"Lord Yang is polite, and the official once again wishes Lord Yang a prosperous business and abundant wealth."
Wu Zhenliang and Lan Shanyou were also smiling, and they had heard how popular Yang Feng's glass was in Nanjing. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a daily gold fight, the two of them, as the first and second leaders of Zhenjiang Mansion, will have a large amount of "filial piety" every month according to the custom, which is already an almost open unspoken rule of the Ming Dynasty.
After the three of them chatted for a while, Yang Feng got up to say goodbye, and Wu Zhenliang and Lan Shanyou got up and sent them to the yamen.
When Yang Feng took the reins handed over by Song Ye and turned over on the horse, his eyes swept over Wu Zhenliang and Lan Shanyou, who were still standing at the door and watching him leave, also felt a burst of emotion in their hearts.
Whether it is the Ming Dynasty or modern officialdom, it is so realistic, if he is still that small five-grade thousand households, although Wu Zhenliang and Lan Shanyou are definitely more polite, but they will never personally send him to the door after the talks, this is the change brought about by the promotion of official positions and rights, after all, the difference between a five-grade thousand households and a third-grade commander is very large, and speaking of which, Yang Feng is now a third-grade product, compared to Wu Zhenliang's fourth-grade and Lan Shanyou's fourth-grade is two or three levels higher, although it is a martial arts, But after all, it's not a positive three products.
On the last day of late June, Yang Feng led the sergeants of the Jiangdong Gate Qianhu Office back to the Jiangdong Gate Qianhu Office, and was warmly welcomed by all the military households of the Qianhu Station and the displaced people who were working.
As soon as the team returned to the vicinity of the Thousand Households, they saw some sergeants' families standing on the side of the road waiting with their faces full of worry.
When the team came to the arena, the baggage soldiers who walked behind placed more than a dozen spiritual positions on the arena, which immediately caused bursts of crying.
Seeing the family members of those sergeants who were crying heartbreakingly, Yang Feng was also very gloomy.
There are casualties in war, and although Yang Feng has made preparations for this expedition, more than ten sergeants have been killed in this half a month.
However, this is already the result of Yang Feng's best efforts, you must know that if it were not for the perfect armor and weapons provided by Yang Feng and the antibacterial drugs obtained from modern society, the casualties of the team would definitely be greater.
Next, Yang Feng convened a general meeting of all the people of the Thousand Households to announce the rewards for the soldiers who went on this expedition.
In addition to receiving a reward of 30 taels of silver per person, the soldiers on this expedition also praised some sergeants who were particularly brave in battle.
Some of these sergeants received a reward of dozens of taels of silver, and many of them were hundreds of taels, and some were even promoted to the rank of official.
In the end, Yang Feng announced that all the soldiers who died in battle this time would be compensated with 100 taels of silver per family, and their families would be exempted from paying taxes for 20 years. If there are children who have not yet reached the age of majority, the 1,000 households are responsible for raising these children until they reach the age of 18. If there are elderly people in the family but no brothers and sisters, the Thousand Households are responsible for sending the elderly to the end of their lives. The disabled sergeants were Yang Feng, and they arranged for them to arrange a job for them in the Thousand Households, and there were thirty catties of rice and noodles and a certain amount of silver every month, and these subsidies were paid until they died.
When Yang Feng announced this decision, the whole arena was a sensation, not to mention the families of the sergeants who were too excited to do it, and even the surrounding military families were stunned.
What is the most fearful thing about being a soldier? It's nothing more than that you are injured and disabled, and your life is helpless or your family has no one to take care of you after you die, now it's okay, you are injured and disabled, and Lord Yang is responsible for raising you, if you die, Lord Yang is also responsible for helping you support the elderly and raise your children, such a good thing has not been said to have seen in the past, and I have never even heard of it.
From ancient times to the present, who have ever heard of such a good thing, for a while, there were cheers and crying on the school ground, and there were even kneeling down to kowtow to Yang Feng to thank him.
When Yang Feng came down from the stage, he was stopped by Li Ge.
"Lord Yang, do you really want to do this?"
"What? Li Yanmu thinks that this official is lying? ”
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Li Ge hurriedly waved his hand, "The adult misunderstood, the student is not doubting the sincerity of the adult, but ...... Just ......"
"Just what?"
Seeing Li Ge's stammering appearance, Yang Feng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and his face sank.
As Yang Feng has been an official for a long time, the official position on his body has become thicker and thicker, and the evil aura in his body has not disappeared when he has just returned from the battlefield, because he is so angry, Li Ge feels a great pressure enveloping his body.
"Don't be angry, sir." Li Ge hurriedly said: "The student heard a few days ago that the emperor specially appointed you as the commander of Jiang Ningwei, presumably you will go to Jiang Ningwei to take office in a few days." This was originally a good thing, but you must know that once you serve as Jiang Ningwei's commander, then the people under your command will not only be our thousands of households.
Jiang Ningwei has a total of 4,000 military households and at least tens of thousands of their families, you have given us such good conditions, what about the remaining 3,000 households? Do you give or don't give? If you do this in every thousand households, the villain is worried that no matter how much money you have, you will not be able to die. ”
Looking at Li Ge's anxious expression, Yang Feng's face softened, and he patted Li Ge's shoulder with some relief: "Li Yanmu, it is really difficult for you to think about this official like this." But the official can tell you here that you are too underestimated by the official, if the official does not have the diamond diamond, how dare he take the porcelain work.
Not to mention anything else, just the silver earned by the official selling glass these days is enough to feed the rest of the four thousand households, and the official will add a few more shops in Zhenjiang Mansion and other places in a few days, so as to develop our business to the surrounding states and prefectures, let alone four thousand households, even if there are a few more, there will be no problem. ”
Hearing this, Li Ge suddenly realized, and said with some shame: "I see, that's why the students think too much." Talented students talk nonsense, and I hope adults are not strange. ”
Yang Feng smiled and said: "You don't have to apologize, at least from here, the official can see that you are a careful person and a person who thinks about the official, and the official should praise you for this alone." In this way, when the Japanese official goes to Jiang Ningwei to take up his post in a few days, you will also follow the official, and Jiang Ningwei will serve as the chief bookkeeper. ”
"The master book?"
Li Ge was a little stunned for a while, and he didn't reflect for a while. After a while, he said in a trembling voice: "My lord, do you really want to appoint the villain as the chief bookkeeper?" ”
"What, don't you want to be?"
"No...... No...... The villain just couldn't believe it. Master Book...... Doesn't it have to be famous to be a person, the villain is just a showman. ”
Li Ge was stunned by this pie that fell from the sky, you must know that in the guardhouse, the main book can be said to be the number one in charge of logistics and property, and all the accounts must pass through his hands, and the most important thing is that the main book already belongs to the official rather than the official.
"What kind of talent is shown, this official has never valued these." Yang Feng said disdainfully: "Didn't this official even Xiucai still be a commander?" The official said that if you can do it, you can do it, and if you can't do it, you can do it, so it was decided. Yang Feng waved his hand, and decided this matter very arrogantly.
