The time came to February of the fourth year of Zhenguan, and in half a month, Qianzhuang's business can be said to be better day by day.

Although there are still a large number of mines planted by the family, Li Yuanjing doesn't want to care so much at this time.

Qian Zhuang decides the outcome of the game, which can not be done overnight, and the loss of interest can be made up for by his other industries.

To put it simply, it is his Li Yuanjing who has been working hard for a few years without making money, so that the people of the world can believe in the credibility of the money bank, and then it will be the day when the family will be defeated.

In the past half month, a lot of news has also come back from the north, and since the end of the New Year, Li Jing has frequently sent large-scale scout detachments deep into the steppe to spy on the enemy, and often fought with the Turks.

The current situation is different from the previous year, when most of the scouts sent out were mainly fire, and it was enough to flee for the enemy and keep track of their movements as much as possible.

The scout detachment sent now is mainly 500 or 1,000 people, and while spying on the enemy, if they encounter a battle that can be fought, they will directly fight.

However, the main force of the army still held on, which made many front-line soldiers depressed.

Yes, now it's pure depression, even anxious.

The first batch of penicillin was sent to the Dingxiang camp a few years ago, and the law of one out of ten out of ten wounded soldiers in the camp has become a thing of the past, as long as the injuries are not serious, even most of them can come out alive.

Of course, the amputation is still to amputate, the current technology has not yet reached the point where the blood vessels can be sutured and the severed limbs are regenerated, the role of penicillin is only to prevent infection and improve immunity, and those limbs that have lost their blood supply are not at all solved except for amputation.

"Your Highness, what should I do with the wounded soldiers?" Ma Zhou looked at Li Yuanjing with a sad face.

I thought that the argument could be written in a few days, but it took half a month to write it and barely complete it, but when I checked it, Ma Zhou found a new problem, that is, the war that is currently underway.

There was no penicillin before, almost all the seriously wounded soldiers died on the front line, and not many could come back alive after amputation.

But now the situation is different, with penicillin being put into the front line for actual combat testing, judging from the current feedback, I am afraid that at least a few thousand seriously injured soldiers will be able to come back alive this time.

In the past, there were two ways for the imperial court to deal with these wounded soldiers, one was to recruit wounded soldiers during the conscription period, or to be sick and weak, that is, to choose with the military department and return the grain.

This is to decide whether you need to continue to follow the army, and the other is to deal with it later.

If it is hairy, the head of the camp will inspect the sick children of the school, measure the qi of the sick children, and give one person, if it is heavy, and those who cannot walk, add a donkey; If you can't ride a beast, give two donkeys before passing, and two people, and tie up the public. For example, if the sick child is abandoned, the one who does not clean up, the one who does not raise the child, the inspector of the sick child and the sick child one hundred each, and the one who buries the sick child before he dies shall be beheaded.

It means that you can go by yourself, give you a servant to follow and send back, since then, you have always had a servant by your side as your little brother, these laborers are ordinary people, when the time comes, the school inspector will assign another person to take over you, the work in the family field, anyway, you are a nanny, just come to serve everything.

If you are seriously ill and can't walk, you will be given an extra donkey to ride, and if you can't ride, you will be given two donkeys, and then you will be given a cart to pull away.

If there is a wounded soldier who is thrown away halfway through labor, or who feels too tired to raise or something like that, if the inspector of sick children finds a problem and deals with it in time, then the servant will fight a hundred, and if the wounded soldier himself reports it, then I am sorry, two people and one person will fight a hundred battles, and if the wounded soldier is buried before he dies, then I am even more sorry, behead.

The imperial court has nothing to say about the treatment plan for the wounded soldiers, and it is already benevolent and righteous, but the problem is that the number of wounded soldiers who can come back alive this time may not be small.

If this method is still used, a common man's annual forced labor time is twenty days, a wounded soldier needs to use up nineteen forced labor in a year, and ten thousand wounded soldiers a year is nineteen thousand forced labor, and this can still be accumulated until the wounded soldier dies.

Therefore, the advantage of penicillin being put into use is that it can save more wounded soldiers, and the disadvantage is that it really gives the court a headache.

But so far, no one in the imperial court seems to have noticed this, Ma Zhou feels that this is his opportunity, but he thinks about it left and right, sees the problem, but can't find a solution, if he hands it over, he can add points to himself, but the additional points are also limited.

Li Yuanjing lightly gave Ma Zhou a look of his own experience, such a simple thing can't be done, what should I do when I become the prime minister in the future? Come to this king every day to give you ideas?

"Your Highness, the letter from Luozhou!"

As soon as Li Yuanjing's words fell, the palace guards led a person over.

Reaching out and taking the letter, he looked at the imprint on it and opened it.

There was nothing special on the letter, mainly because Fang Yiai described the problems he had encountered before, and then explained their solutions again.

Although Li Yuanjing was also a little surprised that Dou Liang would attack the branch, he was not surprised, he had long expected that things would not go so smoothly.

However, the reaction of these goods was generally satisfactory, and after realizing that the real threat was the Zheng family, he immediately abandoned his previous suspicions, turned his head and cooperated with Dou Rail, who used his identity as the governor of Luozhou to forcibly requisition land, and compensated and replaced it elsewhere, in order not to fall into the hands of the people, and even gave the usual compensation per mu of land.

Even if the lawsuit is in front of His Majesty, they have reason to explain, but the price is not small, Dou Liang did not get a penny, and he got half of the share of the Luozhou branch, although he said in his heart that this share would be cashed out by a few of them, Li Yuanjing's share still did not move.

But Li Yuanjing still shook his head speechlessly, and threw the letter directly to Ma Zhou: "Look at this!" ”

Ma Zhou quickly read it, but he was not as relaxed as Li Yuanjing showed, and said with a frown: "Even if the local problem is solved, with the influence of the Zheng family, I am afraid that there will be problems in the future operation, right?" What if Dou Rail is transferred to the new governor and doesn't buy it? Well? Your Highness, do you want to? ”

Ma Zhou suddenly thought of a possibility, the more he thought about it, the more reliable he felt, and his body couldn't help but tremble with excitement, the problem was solved?

"What do you think?" Li Yuanjing asked without any reaction.

"Arrange for wounded soldiers to work in the weaving workshop? In this case, no matter who is the governor of Luozhou, he will not dare to make things difficult for the workshop. ”

Li Yuanjing smiled slightly, talking to smart people is different, he can guess the deeper meaning of his own actions, but in Li Yuanjing's opinion, the meaning is more than that.

"The wounded soldiers are definitely going to go in, you can appropriately reduce the burden of the court in terms of forced labor, you can do it yourself, the share of the branch must be given, but not to him Dou Rail, but to the Luozhou Governor's Mansion, give him a share of the branch, we don't care how this money is spent, as for Dou Rail, the sales of the entire Luozhou and Henan Mansion will be handed over to him, and the income is no less than this one!"

Hearing Li Yuanjing's arrangement, Ma Zhou's eyes lit up instantly, and he clapped his hands again and again: "Wonderful!" Wonderful! Wonderful! ……”
