Chapter 4 Seeking Talents, the Country is Difficult to Wealth

In the military department, Pei Min is doing the final handover, and things are almost over. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

For the sake of safety, he decided to write down all his knowledge of the conscription system and what he should pay attention to. Lest he be absent, the drawbacks of the conscription system in history will appear in advance.

"Pei Shilang, the person you invited has arrived!"

Most people are accustomed to calling Pei Min Pei Zhongcheng, but the whole military department calls him a waiter.

"Quick, please let him in!" Pei Min put down the brush in his hand and walked down the hall to greet him.

"Sinner Jiang Yue visits Pei Zhongcheng!" Jiang Yue was dressed in cloth clothes, and his expression was a little embarrassed.

They were responsible for transporting grain and grass, and as a result, all the grain and grass was burned clean by the Tibetan rangers.

After the responsibility was investigated, the guests of the state assassin Shi Du could not escape the blame and removed the position of the assassin. Now in the name of knowing the history of assassination, he is temporarily leading the history of assassination, waiting for Pei Min to take over.

The history of a state assassin is still like this, not to mention Jiang Yue and his party who are responsible for transportation?

Jiang Yue sentenced him to the Western Regions, and just as he was about to be escorted to the Western Regions, suddenly a person brought an order from the military department, pardoned his sins, and led him to Chang'an and brought him to the military department.

When he arrived at the military department, Jiang Yue learned that it was Pei Min who personally interceded for him at a critical time, and only then did he get the emperor's amnesty.

"What a crime the Jiang team is guilty of!" Pei Min asked Jiang Yue to excuse himself and said, "I should apologize to the team, my military department was negligent, and I almost blamed the good ministers." ”

The Ministry of War has four departments, of which the Department of Duties is responsible for rewards and punishments for military duties. According to the regulations, after the head of the staff rewards and punishes, the results will be handed over to the military department attendant for review.

However, there are two squires in the military department, and Pei Min is in the routine handover of positions, and the rewards and punishments are decided by another squire. By the time he saw the file later, it was too late.

Everything has been decided, Pei Min can only intercede with Li Longji and ask for an amnesty.

Pei Min's words moved Jiang Yue a little, and said: "Anyway, it is a fact that all the grain and grass were burned in Tubo. ”

"But compared with people, grain and grass are certainly worth a pity, but they are not worth the sun!" Pei Min said without hesitation: "I have read the defense you described, you were attacked by an unknown number of Tubo rangers in the dark night. This is intentional or not, and in that case, the probability of turning defeat into victory is almost equal to zero. ”

"If you don't stand up, after the Tubo shoots out your formation, and then there is another sprint, the result will not be as simple as destroying the grain. You were able to command the grain team to deal with it in the right way and save more than 700 lives, which is a credit that cannot be erased. ”

Jiang Yue looked at Pei Min, and there was a little emotion in his heart. The grievances of this sin, fortunately, there are still people who can understand him.

Pei Min waited a little and said expectantly: "From your contingency command, I can see that you know the art of war and tactics. I am now a military envoy of the Shence Army, and I am about to go to Taozhou to serve as the assassin, and now I am short of manpower, do you want to serve in my hands? ”

Jiang Yue's heart throbbed a little, and he said loudly: "Sin, lowly willing." ”

East of Chang'an City!

Wang Xiaobai returned home with his salary, it was still noon, looking at his son who returned home early, the royal father was stunned and said, "Why did my son return early today?" ”

Wang Xiaobai said: "The child has just resigned from his job at the Yushitai!" ”

The royal father said in a hurry: "Why is this? ”

The Yushitai is not what it used to be, and under Pei Min's leadership, the Yushitai is accepted by the world. Wang Xiaobai is also respected by his neighbors because he is reused, and his salary and benefits are very good.

In the eyes of the royal father, Yushitai is an iron rice bowl that can be a lifelong career. It's inconceivable to resign.

Wang Xiaobai said: "Lord Zhongcheng left the Yushitai today, and the child doesn't want to stay anymore." ”

The royal father realized that Wang Xiaobai had a fancy for relying on Pei Min's support today, and following Pei Min was also a good way out, and said: "Are you planning to go to Taozhou with Pei Zhongcheng?" ”

Wang Xiaobai shook his head and said firmly: "Zhongcheng asked the child to help him, but the child is not a martial artist, and he really can't give Zhongcheng much help, so he is ready to go out and practice, and when the child has a skill, he will go to Taozhou." ”

**********

Taozhou.

Within a year, Tibet invaded nine times. The Tibetan rangers, like hungry wolves, came and went like the wind, killing the people and destroying the fields, causing panic in the hearts of the people.

Entering October, it was the season of harvest for all things, but the wilderness of Taozhou was empty and everything was lonely.

The Peng family in Taozhou is singing and dancing at the moment, and it is very lively.

Peng Qi looked at the wealthy Taozhou families who were laughing with him in the hall, and frowned: "What kind of intentions do you have? Want to put me to death? ”

The surname Peng is a major surname that has been developed for thousands of years in the Longyou territory, which is different from the family of five surnames. The Peng family is not a family gate, and there is no decisive big man in the clan to raise their family.

However, they developed steadily and steadily, and the children of the clan were all over the states of Longyou, and they went deep into all industries, vaguely forming a large force.

Peng Qi's grandfather was based in Taozhou a hundred years ago, and has always been the best gentleman in Taozhou, and has a high reputation in Taozhou.

Tubo maliciously targeted Taozhou, destroying fields and killing people. When the people of Taozhou were panicking, Peng Qi, who was very business-minded, saw a business opportunity.

Longyou is not rich in grain, and the urban and rural areas are almost self-sufficient, and there is little surplus grain.

Last year, the Tibetan invasion destroyed the fields in Taozhou, and this year sent rangers to attack and harass, Taozhou has been without grain for two years, and Taozhou must be short of food.

Thinking of this, Peng Qi moved the idea of making a fortune in the country, and quietly purchased the surrounding grain into storage.

Sure enough, as he expected, Taozhou undoubtedly fell into a food shortage. The rice shops everywhere have run out of grain, and it seems that God has also helped him, and Tubo has burned the grain and grass that the Tang Dynasty has supported Taozhou.

Now in the whole Taozhou, only his Peng family has grain, and the rich families in the city do not have much food, and almost every household has gruel and hunger.

Knowing that there was grain in Peng's house, wealthy families who had a good relationship with the Peng family came to the door and were willing to buy it at a high price.

However, there is a provision in the "Tang Law Discussion": Those who evaluate the price of unevenness in the cities will be judged by the high and low, and they will sit dirty; Those who enter themselves are judged as thieves.

Every 10 days, the Tang Dynasty government assessed prices according to current events, and if merchants sold daily necessities in excess of the assessed prices, they would be severely punished.

If Peng Qi sells grain at a high price, it is tantamount to violating the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

A rich man said loudly: "Brother Peng, where is it, we are this kind of people!" ”

Peng Qi smiled but did not speak.

One person said: "I heard that tomorrow is Master Peng's birthday, and I will give thirty brocades as a gift!" ”

Peng Qi returned the salute and said: "Thank you Brother Zhang for your kindness, Peng will definitely return the gift!" ”

The others understood, and one after the other sent congratulatory gifts.

Peng Qi wrote down the congratulatory gifts very carefully and returned them another day.

There are policies above, and there are countermeasures below.

Peng Qi sent out the rich people who were above the top, calculating the profits he had made, thinking about the huge amount of grain and grass hidden in the house, and couldn't help laughing.

As for the life and death of the people, what does it matter!
