Chapter 16 Winning the hearts and minds of the people

The next day, Luo Zhaoyun got up early, exercised in the yard, push-ups, sit-ups, deep frog jumps, moved his body, and then played a set of punches, and then pressed the heat generated by the exercise into his abdomen in time, transforming it into a trace of energy, accumulating a lot.

After breakfast, Luo Zhaoyun carefully flipped through the account book and saw the money and silver stored in the village, as well as the grain storage in the granary.

"Thirty taels of gold, five hundred taels of silver, five baht of thirty thousand hangings, forty large and small pearls, seven thousand stones of corn......"

Luo Zhaoyun swept the account book, and knew the current reserves of the Zhuangyuan, plus the twenty taels of gold that his father Luo Yi gave him privately this time, a few hundred hanging money, and some horizontal knives, bows and arrows, armor, etc., which was also considered a fortune.

The Sui Dynasty uses five baht money, also called Kaihuang five baht, is a copper coin with a round square hole, symbolizing the heaven and earth, since the Western Han Dynasty implemented the five baht money, to the Sui Dynasty to unify the world, it is the unification of the national currency, a hundred dollars, a thousand dollars weigh four catties and two taels, the production is regular, the quality is very good, because the Sui Dynasty has come to the prosperous age, the coin is not enough in the market, so the currency value is strong, ordinary people can spend a month with a few hanging money.

Luo Zhaoyun asked the housekeeper Feng Yao to prepare some five-baht coins and silver beans, and wanted to reward some guards and send them back to Beiping City as soon as possible, so that he could start a new life here with peace of mind.

According to the military system of the Sui Dynasty, three soldiers with good relationships form a "squad", three squads with good relationships form a "squadron", and five squadrons are forming a brigade, with a total of forty-five soldiers.

Five additional people are the leaders of the team, namely the leader of the commander, the deputy head of the flag-carrying team, the civilian "escort officer" of law enforcement, and two flag guards called "left and right flags", forming a team of 50 people, which is the basic activity unit of the Sui army.

Usually 50 people should be equipped with five "curtains", that is, sleeping in five tents and 10 people sleeping in one tent. In "Mulan Poem", the "partners are busy" refers to this relationship.

Along the way, Luo Zhaoyun had carefully observed, and had a preliminary understanding of the marching regulations of the Sui Dynasty.

At two o'clock, more than 30 people gathered in the courtyard, lazy and lazy, completely devoid of the fierceness and heroism of the battle, and even the armor was not uniform, if it wasn't for the fact that there was a reward, they would not have been a fool of the Luo family.

Shi Danai, Zhao Can, Liang Zheng and others also came to the courtyard to see how Luo Zhaoyun sent these soldiers and ruffians.

"Brothers, brothers, thanks to your concerted efforts, escorting Zhaoyun all the way north, windy and dusty, long journeys, and battles with horse thieves, adding casualties, Zhaoyun is grateful, and very unhappy. For this reason, I made the decision privately, extracted some coins from the warehouse treasury of the village, and gave them to everyone, which is regarded as a reward for hard work, which does not conflict with the reward in my father's army, and is completely an extra gratitude, please accept it! ā€

"How much?" There are soldiers and ruffians muttering.

"Silence!" The deputy head of the flag holding team turned around and scolded, but he was not too harsh, just for show.

Luo Zhaoyun didn't think it was a pestle at all, and said with a calm face: "Each sergeant has twenty hanging money, and the head of the team has ten additional silver beans, and the remaining four officers have five silver beans." ā€

Many soldiers in the courtyard suddenly brightened their eyes, their faces showed surprise, a hundred dollars, twenty five baht money, enough for a family for three months, although they are government soldiers, but since the opening of the emperor ten years, Emperor Wen of Sui believes that the world has been peaceful, so that the soldiers can be at ease to engage in agricultural production, live a life of peace and contentment, no longer emphasize the generation of military status, generation for soldiers, but the implementation of the integration of soldiers and farmers, as a result, the government soldiers gradually reduced to the nature of the militia, combat effectiveness declined, the sergeants are no longer interested in war, on the contrary, on the farmland, It's more important to make money.

At this time, when the soldiers and armor of the government saw Qian Guan, the resentment and disobedience in their hearts were swept away, and they were replaced by excitement and greed.

Luo Zhaoyun beckoned, and the housekeeper Feng Yao came over with a few slaves, carrying a few copper plates, on which were placed a lot of money bags, which had been divided, twenty hanging a small cloth bag, a bag weighing eight catties and four taels.

The team leader, the deputy head of the flag, the officer and others also showed satisfaction, after all, they also got a lot, in addition to twenty hanging money, there are also silver beans, extra income, don't be in vain.

During the opening of the Sui Dynasty, gold and silver are not in circulation, all belong to treasures, one or two gold is worth a hundred hanging money, one or two silver is worth twenty hanging money, many businessmen and nobles, think the money is too heavy, so they find someone to cast silver into silver beans, a heavy one penny, worth two hanging money, very convenient, and then the large face value has a pattern of silver cakes, lines of silver.

Although the imperial court expressly forbade the circulation of such privately minted silver beans in the market, in fact it had become a disguised currency, and the underlying rules of the market, especially in the border areas, involved trade with the Hu tribes in the north, and gold, silver and jewelry were widely used.

After these armor soldiers took turns to step forward to get the reward, when they looked at the son of the Luo family, their attitude was obviously a lot kinder, these years, if you have milk, you are a mother, and if you have money, you have a benefit, and everyone has a lot of smoothness in their hearts, and they feel that this kid is very good at coming to things, and this trip is in vain.

"Team Leader Zhang, there are still some coins here, which are given to the families of those soldiers who died in battle, which is a little bit of Zhaoyun's heart, thirty yuan for each family, please transfer it to their families on your behalf!"

After hearing this, Team Zhang's first and other people looked solemn, although they were all some unruly ruffians, they all had a sense of respect for the robes who died in battle.

"In the next generation, everyone has thanked the Luo family, since the escort task has been completed, I won't bother here, I plan to go back and forth tomorrow, and return to Beiping City to return to General Luo!"

"Yes, it's up to you to decide how you want to go." Luo Zhaoyun nodded and replied.

When these government soldiers left the main courtyard, Zhao Can, Liang Zheng and several iron guards stared at Luo Zhaoyun with some curiosity, through what they said just now, they all doubted, is this the stupid son of Luo Mansion? At the age of ten, he speaks so appropriately and comforts people's hearts, and some young people with weak crowns can't be so calm, right?

Shi Danai and Mu He are used to it, and both of them vaguely know that Luo Zhaoyun is no longer crazy.

Luo Zhaoyun turned around, smiled slightly, showed tiger teeth, harmless to humans and animals, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, Brother Liang, don't have this expression, don't worry, you will protect me all the way, and you will accompany me to live here for a few years, Zhaoyun will naturally not treat you badly, ten dollars a month, as long as you protect the safety of the manor and the subordinates, how about it?" ā€

"Ten pennies? Every month? Zhao Can, Liang Zheng and the others were all taken aback, this money was much higher than their money.

Most of them were born in government soldiers, but they had good physical fitness, brave combat, hard fists, and dared to fight, and most of them had been team leaders, deputy flag-holding deputy first-class military positions, so they could be selected and become personal guards.

The personal guards of the generals, regardless of their salary, treatment, power, etc., are much better than those low-ranking officers and ordinary big-headed soldiers.

Even so, they are by the side of Luo Yi, the general of the cavalry, and they get military remuneration, but it is only two hangings of money per month, of course, food and clothing are all-inclusive, and they will be exempted from all taxes, labor, etc. in their families, and now they have changed from two hangings to ten hangings, and if they have increased fivefold, they will suddenly become excited.

Luo Zhaoyun saw it in his eyes, with a smile on his face, and secretly wondered in his heart: Who can resist the sugar-coated cannonball? As long as they buy people's hearts and the benefits they are allowed to give are enough, they don't worry about their dedication and dedication, no matter ancient or modern, people are such a reality!

If you want to really control these sergeants and let them return to their hearts, unless one day, you are high, your martial arts are high, you are powerful, you have the grace to know them, you can influence them with benevolence and righteousness, etc., it is also a matter of the future, at least now, Luo Zhaoyun, who is only ten years old, does not have this ability.
