Chapter Seventy-Eight
The wonderful result of the opening on the first day made Zhu Yidao ecstatic, and also made Wanli think deeply at the same time as he was excited, why the treasury of the Ming Dynasty was so empty, but these second ancestors could still buy it for a ticket to experience life. Where did their money come from? Their omnipotent father, did he move all the Ming treasury to his own house?
Looking at the mountains of silver taels and the thick stack of silver tickets in front of him, Wanli's face was bloodless.
Zhu Yidao didn't have the interest or energy to think so much, it opened today, and the next nine days will be much easier! As for the specific content of experiencing life, he has already explained it, and it is carried out according to one-third to one-half of the usual training standards. I don't know if these people will be able to adapt for a few hours and whether they can survive it! But the louder their dissatisfaction is at the end, the better the advertisement for the event itself! I'm not afraid of being scolded, I'm afraid that people don't know. At present, there is no news from other places except Jingshi, and most of the people have an attitude of not believing it at all.
Especially for the people of Shandong, is there still anyone in the Ming Dynasty who can fight? This is unusual.
What to do next, Lao Zhu thought about it, leaving some people here to continue to ensure the progress of the activity, and he had to quickly transport the silver and supplies back to the right place of the Beijing Division. The right place is the closest to the Beijing Division, but the military expenses and supplies that can be obtained in peacetime are pitiful. Now I'm afraid Jiang Fei can't open the pot there?
Jiang Fei was indeed about to hang himself. Without supplies, they can only solve the problem of grain and grass on the spot, but the key is that the officials and soldiers must not be allowed to rob the people? Other guards are accustomed to doing this, but as soon as Zhu Yidao entered the right office, the first decree announced was that it was strictly forbidden to disturb the people, no matter what the situation was, once it was discovered, it would definitely be dealt with by military law before being expelled: cut off two arms. This punishment makes everyone shudder: even if it is beheaded, people don't know anything when they die; This cut off two arms, it is clear that life is worse than death! And Zhu Yidao also said that everyone is from a poor people's background, or from a broken military household, or an undesirable child in a mansion, they all have parents and parents, think about what they will do if their relatives are not there in an emergency?
But there is no way, these 5,000 people also have to eat and drink! The amount of activity every day is so large, you can't go hungry! In desperation, Jiang Fei had to pay out of his own pocket for the tens of thousands of taels of silver that were actually Zhu Yidao, and let the cook go and buy them from the people.
As a result, the cook went to the town market to buy grain, and everyone looked at him with a strange look: When do you need to give silver for the requisition of food for the soldiers?! But if you don't believe it or not, the cook is really real, and he actually bought it at the market price! The direct consequence of this is that Zhu Yidao's tens of thousands of taels of private money only lasted less than a week.
But I got an accident: the people of the town spread everywhere that the soldiers of the right place of the Beijing Division actually used silver to buy grain! In order not to let the people suffer losses, it is still the market price! As a result, the prestige of the town where Jingshi You was located suddenly reached a height that had never been seen before: Jiang Fei was called a fool hat by the local landlords and a general by the people.
When can he become a general, Jiang Fei can wake up with a smile when he sleeps.
He didn't plan to do this, but he was wondering if there were bandits and bandits around here, so that everyone could fight the autumn breeze and train soldiers by the way. But the Jingshi is hundreds of miles away, and there is no bandit or bandit! People are not stupid, instead of making noise around Jingshi, it is better to hang yourself on your mobile phone first to see if you visit xom to be clean.
After this road was cut off, Jiang Fei pondered, is it to copy another big household? Whatever the crime is, anyway, at least 200 percent of the property in these people's families can't tell where they came from. But he was soon disappointed again: these landlords, more or less inextricably linked with the officials of the imperial court, could not move, and before they could move, the intercessors came; And after finishing these things, it is difficult to ensure that others will not retaliate: I can't deal with the commander of Jinyiwei, and I can't deal with a thousand households? It is enough to accuse him of supporting the army and wanting to rebel!
After ten years of rebellion, Jiang Fei is a thousand households with 5,000 soldiers! If this is said that he rebelled, he couldn't tell even if he jumped into the Yellow River!
Well, I can't do this job. Left or right, Jiang Fei was angry and took out the private money that Lao Zhu had deposited there! Go to the market and buy from the people!
When Zhu Yidao returned to the right station with 500,000 taels of military expenses and tens of thousands of stones, grains and grass, and learned that all his savings had been squandered by Jiang Fei, he did not hesitate to seize 100,000 taels of military expenses: This is compensation for my losses! The extra tens of thousands are considered interest!
Jiang Fei immediately said sternly: "If you dare to embezzle military spending, I will report it to the imperial court!" ”
Zhu Yidao's face was flushed, but he couldn't say a word. That's the end of it.
However, the experience activity is so popular, Jingshi still has to be watched by someone, so as not to let someone take the opportunity to make trouble, and the income of the silver must also be accounted for, and he has to find a way to get a bookkeeper. In the first few days after coming back, Zhu Yidao was busy with his feet in the sky, not only to resume normal training, but also to tell them about the hot scene in the Beijing Division, and to give them incentives, if anyone performs outstandingly, he will have the opportunity to go to the Beijing Division to make an appearance, and there will be a bonus!
This completely stimulated the morale of the sergeants: they can still show their faces and have bonuses, they also have good meals to eat, and most importantly, they can go to the most famous Qinglou in Beijing to sleep with beautiful girls!
What else is there to say? Step up your game! As a result, everyone spontaneously started a large-scale military training movement, using small flags as units to compete with each other and compare with each other, and the atmosphere was not ordinarily high. Zhu Yidao discussed with Jiang Fei that he had to guide them when necessary, otherwise it would not be a good thing if it caused a large-scale group fight!
Just when Zhu Yidao was vigorously training his troops, Wanli's wolf pack banner quietly came to the Beijing division station and conveyed a secret decree to Lao Zhu. This secret purpose made Zhu Yidao fall into an ice cellar in an instant, and his whole body was cold!
He struggled to recall what it was that stimulated Wanli so much that the emperor, who was originally indifferent to government affairs, suddenly cared so much about the future of the Ming Dynasty; In the end, what did he say that he shouldn't say and what he shouldn't do, so that Wanli repented and began to review his own mistakes; In the end, who in the cabinet reported to the emperor what should not be reported, so that Wanli was so excited.
Wanli wanted to send Zhu Changxun, the third prince who was only ten years old, to the right station, and also named Zhu Yidao to be his instructor and teacher.
Isn't that playing with me? Not to mention the prince, even a ten-year-old broken child of the common people can't do anything! Isn't that an obvious attempt to make me a babysitter? Besides, what's the deal with throwing the third prince to me so early? He suddenly remembered a possibility: Wanli is ready to let him do the position of the crown prince?
That's a big deal! But if Wanli didn't plan to set up a prince, why did he suddenly send the third prince to him? Jiang Fei was also puzzled. It stands to reason that the emperor's son should stay in the palace honestly, except for the prince who can receive education and get the top civil officials and professors in the imperial court, everyone else can only be a prince of peace in this life, living in the deep palace like a deep prison until he dies in the world.
But Wanli not only sent the ten-year-old little prince here, but also named himself as his life teacher and instructor, and only he and Jiang Fei knew about this matter, I'm afraid that even the little prince's biological mother, Zheng Guifei, didn't know? What does this mean exactly?
What about the eldest prince Zhu Changluo? Jiang Fei shouted in a lost voice.
The eldest prince Zhu Changluo? Zhu Yidao was a little puzzled, since he was the eldest prince, he must be the crown prince! Why did you still send the third prince to him?
No, in fact, there have long been voices in the imperial court, persuading the emperor to establish a prince as soon as possible, which is also beneficial to the country. But the emperor never expressed his position, nor did he say that he agreed, nor did he say that he disagreed. It just dragged on. Now the eldest prince is in his teens, and the third prince is almost ten years old. The ministers of the six ministries and the cabinet are all afraid, if the emperor suddenly goes one day in the future, who will be the emperor? Isn't this immediately messed up?
