Tokyo's holy decree arrived, and the person who came was Zeng Xiaokuan, who came quickly and whipped up, the son of a prime minister who almost couldn't ride a horse, and now in a short period of time, he actually practiced a superb equestrian skill.

Along with the holy decree, there were also tiger talismans brought from the White Tiger Festival Hall of the Privy Council in Tokyo, and the northern soldiers and horses were all under moderation and allowed Gan Qi to move.

"It's hard work, filial piety, and it's hard work, when I can go back to Beijing, I will definitely visit Zeng Xiang." Gan Qi took these things and also accepted the love of the Zeng family.

Zeng Xiaokuan smiled: "Gan Xianggong doesn't have to be so polite, it's all a trivial matter, and the money allocated by the imperial court is on the way, and it will arrive within ten days." A total of 470,000 guan, Gan Xianggong should not be too little, this is what His Majesty spent a lot of effort to get together, of which 200,000 guan came from the inner treasury. ”

"It's not too little, it's unexpected to have so much money." Gan Qi said with a smile. To say that in the Great Song Dynasty, the annual income was 60 or 70 million guan, plus the income after Ganqi's reform of commercial taxes, it was barely about 100 million guan.

But it does not mean that the Tokyo Imperial Court has 100 million yuan of money every year that can be spent, and a large part of the tax revenue in various places has to be spent in various places, such as the salaries of officials and soldiers in various places, and the daily expenses in the yamen, which are directly distributed, and secondly, the construction of bridges, roads, and schools, which will cost a sum of money, and some laughing disasters and so on.

When there is a surplus in a wealthy place, it will be handed over to the superiors, and after the transfer is made by the yamen, it will be reported to Tokyo, and the surplus will also be transported to the capital. Of course, there are also poor places, or places with disasters, which are naturally beyond their means, and they have to be subsidized by the imperial court, otherwise they will not be able to pay out, and the transfer will make the yamen do this kind of thing locally, and transport the money from the rich state capital directly to the poor state capital.

Now the Great Song Dynasty is basically a situation in which the south subsidizes the north. It is not that Henan, Hebei, and the Central Plains are poor, but in recent years, the Yellow River has flooded, there are too many floods, and it is necessary to raise border soldiers and horses.

As for the northwest, not to mention, the war has been fought for many years, and countless expenses have been spent, and the imperial court has to make up money frequently.

After the Wei and Jin dynasties, the Tang and Song dynasties were almost a turning point in China's economic situation, the economic center moved south, and since then the economic center has never gone north, and this situation has continued to later generations.

According to this point of view, Bianliang is really a good capital city geographically. Taking into account the north and the south, it is not far from the northern border battlefield and not too far from the southern economic center, which is an important node connecting the north and the south. The prosperity of Bianliang obviously has this reason for this.

After talking about the money, Zeng Xiaokuan said again: "Gan Xianggong, this time I announced this holy decree, and the younger brother is not ready to return to Beijing for the time being." ”

"Oh? Not going back to Beijing? Gan Qi hadn't reacted yet.

Zeng Xiaokuan was a little embarrassed and said: "My father said that the younger brother has grown up so big, and he has never seen much of the world, and I hope to do some dog and horse work under the command of Gan Xianggong, and he will also have a long experience, and he can also learn some ways of making things with Gan Xianggong, and please don't dislike Gan Xianggong." ”

Zeng Xiaokuan's words were said with a very low attitude, and the words "the work of dogs and horses" were not easy for literati to say, and they had the meaning of self-deprecation in them.

This second-generation official is not simple. No wonder he can become prime minister in the future.

"Filial piety is serious, since Zeng Xiang has arranged it like this, how can I have two words? Why don't you just follow me to do a clerical knife and pen or something like that, and when you have to go back to Beijing, I will go to the official's house to ask for an official position such as a privy council decree for you, how about it? "Gan Qi knows that he will reciprocate the favor, and he should be.

"Official position or something, the younger brother doesn't think much about it, he just wants to follow Gan Xianggong's side and be a useful person in the future." Zeng Xiaokuan has always called himself the younger brother, but when it comes to age, Gan Qi is the younger brother nine times out of ten.

"Okay, then let's say so, take office today, help me draft some official documents, send them to Shaanxi and Qin Feng, recruit official documents, you go to ask Di Xianggong for specific details." Gan Qi directly explained the errand.

"Xiaguan will do it." Zeng Xiaokuan was really energetic, and turned around to leave.

"Wait a minute, and then do a piece of music to Tokyo, please transfer Li Ding, the head of the commercial tax superintendent, to the prefect of Xijin, and Cai Qu to judge the Jinfu, as well as Confucius Xiang to know the affairs of Zhuozhou, Feng Ziyu, please transfer the affairs of Yizhou, Su Zhe to know the affairs of Danzhou, Su Shi to know the affairs of Luanzhou, Chen Han...... Chen Han doesn't seem to have a reputation, his ancestors are the founding of the country, and his father is also a Zhijing County, and he is an official in Enyin, and he is sentenced to Datong. And ......"

Gan Qi arranged that Tokyo was sharing the cake at this time, but this cake was beaten down by Gan Qi, and he also had to divide it, and he could divide it into seven or eight places, and there were still a bunch of people, and the qualifications were not enough.

If one person attains the Tao, how can he let a few more people ascend to immortality?

In the case of officialdom, it is necessary to serve in the local government, and if the grade is promoted at the local level, it can be reused when you return to Beijing. Gan Qi wants to take advantage of his great achievements to lay out the future of many people.

Zeng Xiaokuan was stunned when he heard this, he knew the names of these people, but he didn't expect Gan Qi to have such a big appetite and ask for seven or eight official positions in one go.

didn't expect Gan Qi's appetite to be more than that, and said: "You ask Di Xianggong again, how should people in the army be promoted, ask him to give an opinion first, and then I will take a look at it and then decide." Don't send the previous folds first, and wait for the military merits to be sent together. ”

Civil officials must be promoted, and those military attaches who work hard must be promoted, Shi Honglei, Zhi Kexing and others are not even promoted by a few levels.

"Gan Xianggong rest assured, the lower officials will definitely do it properly at this time." Zeng Xiaokuan nodded in horror, but some envy rose in his heart, not to mention others, just Chen Han, he knew. Although Chen Han is after the founding of the country, but now, Chen Han's family background is already 108,000 miles worse than Zeng Xiaokuan, Chen Han's father Chen Li, but the magistrate of Gyeonggi County, Chen Han is not qualified to be gracious at all.

But as soon as Gan Qi opened his mouth, he gave Chen Han En's shade, and went directly to Datong Mansion to serve as a judge. Even Zeng Xiaokuan, who has a prime minister's father, is just a small idle position in the Inquisitor's Court, but Chen Han got to know Gan Qi because he got to know him.

Zeng Xiaokuan felt a little regretful at this moment, regretting why he didn't know Gan Qi earlier, if he had known Gan Qi earlier and worked for Gan Qi, maybe he would have been able to dominate the party at this time.

But I want to come back again, and now it's not bad, and it's not bad to be able to return to Beijing, and the Privy Council will accept the decree, which is not bad.

"There is labor." Gan Qi also said politely.

Zeng Xiaokuan retreated, just arrived in Yanjing, and immediately started working. It is also the real shortage of manpower around Gan Qi, especially the lack of literati to deal with government affairs, Zeng Xiaokuan came at the right time.

Gan Qi couldn't help but think a lot, that Zeng Xianggong arranged it like this, in fact, he knew that Gan Qi was short of manpower. But also, it's not difficult to guess that Gan Qi suddenly has such a big stall, so naturally there is a shortage of people to run errands.

Not long after, Di Yong also arrived in Yanjing, but his father didn't go to see him, he found Gan Qi as soon as possible, and the two talked a lot.

After the secret conversation, Di Yong asked, "Big brother, when will you do it?" ”

Gan Qi replied: "Don't worry, and now there are not many soldiers who can be used, Di Xiangcheng is just in the whole training to surrender, Hedong has also transferred a lot of forbidden army young and strong, these days have only arrived, Wansheng Army is now only more than 40,000 people, plus about 15,000 mighty troops, and also divided troops to garrison the pass, wait for a month, wait until the whole training is almost done, and then go east to meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom." Let the things in Luanzhou City ferment a little more, so it will not be in vain for you to take a risk. ”

Di Yong nodded and asked, "Big brother, what have I been doing lately?" ”

"You go and help Di Xianggong train the soldiers and horses, and directly bring out thousands of men and horses, and when the time comes, I will return to the Privy Council, and I will give you all the official orders as soon as they are done." Gan Qi is now a military attache who is easy to say, with him, the main privy envoy, and Di Qing, the deputy privy envoy, it is not a problem to arrange a military attaché.

"Well, it's okay for me to help my father, he's older now, not as good as before, working day and night, I'm really afraid that if there is a bad one." Di Yong replied.

Looking at Di Yong's appearance, Gan Qi suddenly smiled and said: "After returning to Beijing, I will ask your sister-in-law to find you a girl from a big family in Beijing, and if you don't marry a wife, you should be caught in the yamen to play the board." ”

Di Yong's old face turned red, and he said stiffly: "Several brothers in my family are married, and my eldest brother has also given birth to a son, and I am not the only one who inherits the lineage." ”

"You...... The heart is not small, you don't look down on ordinary people, you always want to make a contribution, now it's not bad, the Di family is also a wealthy family from now on, a young lady from a big family, you can choose. Gan Qi knew Di Yong's previous situation, Di Qing was in decline, and everyone shouted and beat in the city of Tokyo, which well-informed girl would marry Di Yong? Marrying a small family who doesn't read, read, or listen to music, Di Yong is unwilling.

This time I will return to Beijing, as long as there is Gan Qi in the court for a day, the Di family will be a wealthy family, and everyone is worthy of it, and no talented woman will be a problem.

"Big brother...... I...... It's not that I'm angry, I just don't care about it. Di Yong is still hard-mouthed, the young man a few years ago is now more and more handsome, more and more heroic, if it weren't for Di Qing's reason, the girls in Tokyo would not have a word of refusal when they saw Di Yong.

"It's kind of a big eyebrow now." Gan Qi laughed.

Di Yong didn't say anything.

"Go ahead, go and talk to your dad about it, and say it's on me." Gan Qi is also a peach in return, not only Di Yong, but also Di Qing.

Di Yong got up and arched his hand, and the moment he turned around, he left a sentence: "Thank you, big brother." ”

Gan Qi smiled, in fact, there was also a sense of emotion, and a sense of accomplishment.

Belch...... There is also a sense of well-being.

The army of the Liao State is actually not poorly trained, at least compared with the army of the Great Song Dynasty, it is still a little better. Therefore, the soldiers of the Liao State, leaving away those old and weak people, the quality of the rest is really high.

Gan Qi was busy with the affairs of Yanyun all over the world, and at the same time, he had to personally carry out ideological transformation of these soldiers, and the method of transformation was actually the same old-fashioned, practicing to the death, and then giving money, food and meat to eat.

But this time, Gan Qi added a little thing, that is, the propaganda of the cult of personality, the object of the personality cult is naturally Gan Qi himself, this kind of thing is very useful in this era.

The content of the propaganda is nothing more than that people everywhere say Ganqi's past, adding oil and vinegar to say, Wenqu Xing went down to earth, Wuqu Xing possessed, passed the top exam, became a Confucian, killed people on the street, led troops to win countless battles, strong martial arts, took the lead in personally rushing into battle to kill the enemy, and won a hundred battles.

And it is also Guanyin Bodhisattva who came into the world, how to love soldiers like sons, how to love the people like sons, and how to be approachable.

Gan Xianggong, that is half of the things in the sky, and the things in the earth are complete.

There is no one before the ancients and no one after him, the gods and Buddhas are unmatched in the world, they are eight buckets high, graceful, invincible in the world!

Yes, our coach Gan Xianggong is such a perfect person!

Following in the footsteps of Gan Xianggong, this life is a good life, a bright future, and a broad road is just around the corner.

"Gan Xianggong is here, Gan Xianggong is here again......"

"Stand still, don't move!"

"Straight, straight, straight......"

"Gan Xianggong has sent mutton to everyone!"

"Greetings to Gan Xianggong!"

Gan Qi, with a warm smile in the spring breeze, stood on the platform, looked at the left and right lines, and waved: "Brothers, have worked hard, add food today, and have a good meal." Today there is not only mutton, but also wine, today the former military camp made an exception, drank a drink, and drank it openly. ”

"Greetings to Gan Xianggong!"

"Gan Xianggong wins!"

"Today, I also invited a local acrobatic troupe, which will be staged on this stage in the afternoon, and everyone will remember to come and see it." Gan Xianggong is quite cunning, and Di Qing is very strict every day, pretending to be black-faced. Gan Qi came, and that was a red-faced, 10,000 times better commander than General Di.

The audience cheered.

Di Qing also scolded with an iron face: "Silence, silence for me, in the barracks, the boss speaks so loudly, what kind of system." ”

Gan Qi also smiled, raised his hand to stop Di Qing: "That's it, it's just a long day of training, hard work, a day off." ”

Di Qing also said angrily to the side: "These dogs, who practice stealing and playing tricks every day, shouldn't rest." ”

"Di Xianggong is angry, even if he looks at my face and dissipates his anger."

"If it weren't for Gan Xianggong coming today, they would have to be punished for running twenty miles each today."

This old and young will really cooperate.

"Thanks, thank you."

"Thanks, thank you."

"Eat meat, drink wine, watch a show......

"Still willing to love soldiers like sons!"

"But no, Gan Xianggong is here, so he can have a good life."

"I have to go home and give Gan Xianggong an immortal tablet and worship it every day."

"Being able to be a soldier under the command of Gan Xianggong, I don't know if it is a blessing that I have cultivated in several lifetimes!"

"The ancestral graves are all smoking."

……

I have to say that there is really a set of perfect people.

In fact, Gan Qi didn't know that in private, many military men who had followed Gan Qi out of Xiongzhou before actually began to call themselves Gan's army.

This is a good thing, but it's also a bad thing.

The good thing is that the cohesion of this army has really risen.

However, it may also fall into the mouth of the tongue and become a political problem. That's the bad thing.

In another place in the south of Yanjing City, there is a large piece of land, there are less than a thousand Jurchens, and now these Jurchens have also begun to settle down in Yanjing City, each Jurchen has been rewarded with many slaves by Ganqi, less than seven or eight men and women, more than dozens of hundreds of men and women, mostly Khitan or Bohai people.

Ganchi also sent people to teach them to manage their land, and to let the slaves go to farm.

When it comes to farming, Wanyan Uguru doesn't care, he only cares about the upper value of drilling, and the lower value of sowing...... It's about having children.

For the Jurchens, as long as there is food and women, they have to hurry up and have more children, the more the better. It will take some time for these Jurchens to integrate into the agrarian civilization.

However, the Jurchen army also expanded, trapping 800 camps, 800 chiseling battalions, and 800 sharp blade battalions. After finishing the MLM organization of Uguru, the plate is getting bigger and bigger.

Heavy armor, bows, knives and guns, horses, vests.

Among the three battalions, there began to be Han Chinese. Gan Qi specially arranged, select some brave people, heavy rewards, if it is meritorious service, more than the ordinary soldiers, there will be brave men under the heavy reward.

Now Gan Qi has horses, and after a few battles, seven or eight thousand good horses have been collected in Yanyun, as well as the formation and training of light cavalry, which must also be put on the agenda.
