This trip made Li Yuanjing develop a good habit, as the so-called good memory is better than a bad pen.

Some thoughts are actually momentary inspirations, and if you don't record them, you won't be able to recall them later.

Taking advantage of the boredom on the way back, Li Yuanjing doesn't need to worry about anything anymore, just follow the continental shelf, and if the fleet lacks anything, just dock to replenish it.

Taking advantage of this time, Li Yuanjing began a cumbersome summary.

Of course, it was too tiring to write by himself, so the task of writing was handed over to Ma Zhou, and Li Yuanjing was only responsible for dictation.

The two of them just scribbled and changed it, and wrote and painted and sorted out a lot of materials.

For Ma Zhou, this is also a learning process, this trip has allowed him to learn a lot of unknown things, and this summary has made him understand Li Yuanjing's ideas on dealing with some things.

And when the fleet arrived at Haizhou Port, the two of them had almost sorted out the information.

Looking at the hot training scene in the barracks in front of him, Ma Zhou couldn't help but sigh a little, it turned out that the Haizhou Army proposed by His Highness back then would have such a far-reaching layout.

However, Ma Zhou also had a strong doubt in his heart, why did His Royal Highness dedicate all these hidden things to the imperial court? What's in it for him to do this?

Although he is not a prince, Ma Zhou also gave a hard time in his heart.

If you put yourself in the position of Li Yuanjing, you will definitely do sailing, but you will not do anything else except sailing.

I will instigate Li Shimin to spread the Datang plate even more, and do this under the premise of insufficient preparation, or all kinds of chaos will inevitably appear in a short time, and after a few years, the great cause will be successful.

"Your Highness has gained a lot from this trip, right?" Hearing the news of the return of the fleet, Li Daozong and Li Ji hurriedly came to greet them, but after seeing the expressions of the fleet members, they were completely relieved, if there was nothing to gain, they would definitely not have this expression.

"Ok! Not bad! Li Yuanjing responded with a smile, but he always felt a little strange when he looked at the barracks, and couldn't help asking: "Two generals, why does this king think that the number of people in the barracks is a little wrong?" ”

"Hahaha! His Royal Highness didn't know that the performance of the Haizhou Army overseas the year before last really surprised His Majesty, and after the return of the large army after the year, the response was good, so His Majesty intended to reform the government soldiers, and it happened that His Royal Highness had led his troops to the sea, and there were still 12,000 vacancies in the battalion, so he transferred 12,000 government soldiers to follow the training, and His Majesty gave 10,000 training subsidies...... "Li Daozong said with a smile.

This matter is the result of everyone's discussion, Li Daozong himself has no right to speak, anyway, the full size of the Haizhou military camp is 50,000 people, and Li Yuanjing sent 12,000 people to the sea, but in fact the vacancy is not more than 12,000 people.

The Shijia Army has also transferred a lot, but the personnel they have transferred are naturally trying to supplement it by themselves, which Li Shimin has already acquiesced.

Hearing that 12,000 people actually gave a subsidy of 10,000 yuan, Li Yuanjing's face instantly darkened!

"Those who eat this king, drink this king, use this king, and this king is responsible for teaching them, so give 10,000? Not so bullying! ”

"......" Li Daozong's face was full of confusion, why did Li Yuanjing become like this when he went to sea?

"Your Highness, all the food and drink of these people are allocated from the state warehouse, and the excess share is enough for our five thousand people." Li Ji said a little embarrassedly, this is all taking advantage of the imperial court, what do you want?

"Forget it, it's useless to tell you, this king will go back to Chang'an and tell the imperial brother in person!" Li Yuanjing shook his head, thought for a while, and then said, "Let them vacate the barracks before the first day of the fifth month. ”

It was the second half of the first month, and in a few days it was February, and the fleet had been sailing for almost a year, which was also an ordeal for the crew.

Although they can get a salary and a subsidy every day, the best thing for them at this time is rest.

Turning his head to Ma Zhou, he instructed: "Immediately arrange for someone to hand over the account book to Qian Zhuang, let them complete the appropriation within three days, and after three days, all the crew will have a holiday, and return to the camp before the first day of May." ”

"No!" Ma Zhou responded, these are not problems.

On the way back, this order had already been issued, and the ship's accompanying officials had already been counting, and then he just collected the statistical results, and then asked people to check them and hand them over to Qian Zhuang for appropriation.

And for the crew of the fleet, it was a difficult year, but also a good year.

All the crew members were in their third year of service this year, and their salaries had been increased to 190 yuan per month as agreed, and not long after they went to sea, that is, when the fleet had just arrived on Luzon, Li Yuanjing promulgated new regulations.

The subsidy for going to sea is half of the monthly military salary, that is, a monthly subsidy of 95 yuan, which is twice as high as when I went overseas to fight overseas.

Of course, this is not the end, there are also probe rewards and so on, all kinds of rewards are waiting for them, in principle, as long as there are enough places found, the rewards they get will be unlimited.

But in fact, it is not so ideal, Li Yuanjing must consider the feelings of more people, and also consider his own financial resources.

This voyage was not for the purpose of aggression and plunder, so although the fleet found a lot of places and made plans for this, it did not plunder those countries that had appeared, so the fleet was still very poor, from the current situation, this voyage was simply a loss of money, similar to Zheng He's fleet, but the two were fundamentally different.

One is that I just pretend to be forced, so I ask you if you are convinced? If you accept it, you will be stoned to death with money, and if you don't accept it, you will be stoned to death with money.

And Li Yuanjing, I don't throw money at it, and I don't ask you whether you accept it or not, I just want long-term interests.

Therefore, except for Wang Erniu's intelligence reconnaissance team, which is not easy to restrict due to the nature of the troops, other people's rewards are limited to three times the current military salary, and your reward reaches this upper limit, and the next task will be none of your business, you need to give a place to other comrades who have not reached it, and three times the amount will be opened next month.

Everyone took turns, the advantage is the cost control, and every soldier has been fully trained, there are also disadvantages, except for Wang Erniu and them, the amount of money that everyone else gets is very different.

The fleet sailed for more than ten months, the military salary was 2,090 yuan per person, the subsidy was 1,045 yuan, and the reward was about 6,000 yuan, that is, on average, everyone would get more than 9,000 yuan.

Jiuguan doesn't seem like much, but it can also be said that in the entire Tang Dynasty, except for the circle of bureaucrats, big landlords, businessmen, and high-end talents engaged in business, no one has a higher income than these twelve thousand people.

Why the avalanche of food prices? From hundreds of dollars in the second year of Zhenguan to four dollars in the fourth year of Zhenguan?

In addition to the national harvest, there is also the deliberate suppression of the imperial court, which is all caused by no money, not that there is no money to mint money, it is over, the imperial court does not even have copper, what to use to mint coins?

Trying to suppress food prices is a no-brainer, and only in this way can society be a little more stable.

Therefore, Li Yuanjing realized what kind of sensation it would cause in the entire Datang when these crew members returned home.

"Cushion, this is Datang? That's awesome, isn't it? ”

"I'm a good girl, I feel like I'm a baby from the mountains, and I'm ......."

Listening to these dialects of a certain place in the Tang Dynasty with obvious exotic characteristics, Li Yuanjing was full of black lines on his forehead, and he forgot about these goods......
