In the blink of an eye, it has been five days since the three soldiers who stole the property of the Dragon Mansion were publicly punished in the army. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and in the past few days, there are indeed no rumors in the army, and no one talks about this matter in private, after all, the scene of the royal family being ruthless to the three soldiers in front of many Luoyang nobles that day still makes many veterans and recruits very shocked, so except for some officers who like to mention this matter when talking about military discipline, no one is really willing to discuss this matter the rest of the time. Of the three people involved, except for one who was disabled, the other two were already able to get out of bed and walk.

This night was the day of the army's reward, not only did each person receive a reward of more than 100 yuan during the day, but also held a rare banquet in the evening. It is said that it is a banquet, in fact, it is a meal in the open air in the barracks outside the West Gate, but this meal is very rich, not to mention meat, and wine, that is a real spirit, legend has it that dozens of dollars a jar of soju is sold outside, but each group of ten people gets a can, so in the night bonfire, the men open their minds, and from time to time there are people singing a song, and the barracks are jubilant.

Listening to the commotion outside, the two men who had been lying in bed for two days finally couldn't help it, and one of them said, "Xiao Ning, how about we go out and have a good time?" ”

"I'm afraid they don't welcome us, we're guilty now. What if they laugh at us? ”

"Do you regret it?"

"Brother Gou, what about you?"

"Naturally not, I have a feeling that the royal family will definitely do a lot in the future, so what the royal family owes us will definitely be repaid twice as much in the future."

"Isn't this what Dr. Ning said, and I don't know when the royal family will be able to cash it in. In the past, when I was in the south, I always listened to you, and the Baifu recruited people to come with you. So I also listened to you this time, seeing that you began to resist hard, I didn't confess randomly, and I also admitted it when I heard you say that I promised the royal family to pretend to admit it, but I don't know why the royal family didn't look for them, but they admitted it from the beginning. It turned out that these two people had known each other for a long time, and their actions had always been consistent.

"Maybe it's because we are tough. Alas, don't talk about this, they drink and eat meat outside, and our brothers are talking nonsense here, so we might as well go out and ask for something to eat. It's okay, General Liu knows what's going on, and he won't be embarrassed for us, so let's go if you're afraid! Saying that, the two men slowly moved out one after the other.

The young man who was called Xiao Ning followed cautiously, and as soon as he walked out of the barracks, a smell of wine came to his nose, and Xiao Ning couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Two steps further, he was finally discovered by the soldiers around the campfire, but instead of laughing as he imagined, a man who looked like a man shouted loudly, "Come here, it'll be gone later." I thought you couldn't get out of bed, so I didn't call you, hey, what about one more person? ”

"He hasn't gotten up yet. Thank you, my brother is here to join in the fun. The man who walked in front replied.

Saying that, the two of them quickened their pace, walked to the crowd and sat down, and soon each of them was given a piece of barbecue, plus brown rice dumplings, and scones were delivered, and the two immediately devoured it, how can there always be such delicious food in the army?

Looking at the appearance of the two, the previous gang leader smiled, "Slow down, you have also suffered in the past two days." Good manners, why do you want to do that ugly thing, to be honest, the royal family really treats us well. You're here for money, and I know that, but you can't do that. Although there was no ridicule or anything like that, only this guy was the only one talking to the dozen or so people around the campfire.

"We don't." Xiao Ning blurted out in a hurry, but was immediately interrupted by another person.

"We were indeed wrong, and we will never dare again." The man who was called Brother Gou glared at Xiao Ning, and the latter immediately lowered his head, only caring about the meat in his mouth.

"It's okay, just know it's wrong. It has already been punished, and it is over that it is over. Yesterday, General Liu also specially summoned our gang commander to give a lecture, saying that we should not be embarrassed for you in the future, and said that he wanted us to tell everyone not to look down on you and not to laugh at you. The royal family is really good, and following the king not only has money to spend, but it also feels excellent. Come, there's still some wine here, you drink it slowly, drink less for the first time, don't choke. After drinking this bowl of wine, everyone is still brothers. It seems that Liu Yun is still a very careful person, and he also thinks of the feelings of several people who know the inside story.

Immediately after, a circle of people coaxed, shouting for him to take a big sip, and unconsciously, it seemed to be back to the past, the eyes of the two men were moist, and they didn't know if they were choked by strong wine.

And speaking of money, the silence after Fang Cai Xiaoning and the others joined was also broken The men on the other side of the bonfire began to chat again, only to hear one person say, "This time I actually received one hundred and fifty yuan, which is really good, I think that in the new city, a young man only got this number in half a year, I have only been here for three months, I heard that the more you go, the more you go, the veterans of the royal family take more than two hundred, which is a lot." What are you going to do with the money, this wine is really good, I heard that Natural Curie sells it, no, how about we wait for the next break to get together and have a good meal? ”

Saying that, several men were making a fuss, and it didn't take long for it to settle down, and then several men began to pull up the previous guy leader, "Sir, do you want to go to Lele with us, I heard that Luoyang City is a big city in the world, and the girl on South Street is also good." ”

The captain of the gang was red, and he could see it by the bonfire. "Go ahead, I won't go."

"Then why do you want so much money? I heard that you have posted more than 200 of them. ”

"I'm going to take it home and keep it for my mother, and keep it for my daughter-in-law to use later." Obviously, this gang leader is a local in Luoyang, recruited by the young master, and is one of the first veterans brought to Jinmagou by Liu Yun and them.

But apparently this group of Korean men did not force it, and after a few jokes, they went to drink again.

Some people are happy, but some people are naturally sad, this seems to be an eternal truth, and this time is no exception. Just when the Ximen Barracks spent an unforgettable night, Zhou Bian in the Mingde Palace was holding a bamboo slip, and his two eyebrows were almost squeezed into a line.

Looking at the king in the hazy light, Jian Jia finally couldn't help but speak, "Don't look at it anymore, although the king is worried about state affairs, the king's body is important, so let's rest quickly." ”

Zhou Bian looked at an account book, the day before yesterday the supervisor checked the treasury left by the first Zhou Gong, which made Zhou Bian happy, but he didn't think that it was only two days of work, and the treasury would bottom out. A thousand soldiers brought by the royal family from Chengzhou, two hundred yuan per person, that is, 200,000 yuan, three thousand Luoyang soldiers, one hundred yuan, is 300,000 yuan, plus 100,000 yuan for the Luoyang nobles, the wine and meat at the celebration banquet cost 50,000 yuan, nearly 700,000 yuan, and it was spent like flowing water, who doesn't feel distressed?

"Is it true that Zhou Gong only has 800,000 yuan left?" Although Zhou Bian was overjoyed when he saw this mountain of copper coins at the beginning, when it was not enough to spend, Zhou Bian still couldn't help but fantasize about whether there was still money that he hadn't discovered.

"The king asked this, but he killed the old slave, and it is true, the master has also cleared. In addition, there are some jewels or something that are worth more than 100,000 yuan, and the ones left by the first Zhou Gong are all here. The prison guard was startled and knelt down.

"Get up, it's not that this king doesn't believe you, it's just that I didn't expect it to cost so much at once. No wonder Zhou Gong only raised 4,000 soldiers before, even if he didn't pay soldiers, he would get 100,000 yuan just for clothes and food for a month. The king also promised at least 50 yuan per month for each person in the Imperial Forest Army, and if it was 10,000 Royal Forest Army, it would cost 500,000 yuan a month, which is really difficult for this king! ”

"The king is not in a hurry, my royal family has to rely on the Duke of Zhou to raise it from the beginning, and now I can raise so many soldiers, and I can also make a fortune, all of which are from the king step by step, and the old slave believes that the king will solve all the problems. And we have now taken over the property of the first Zhou Gong, and tens of thousands of dollars have been received in January. ”

"To be honest, the king really doesn't like the industries left by Duke Zhou, and it's time for my royal family's industries to expand. In fact, what this king thinks is that some ancestors said that fighting is actually about money, and it seems that this statement is indeed true. But fortunately, this king has you to take care of the accounts, and this king is still relieved. Tomorrow it's time to talk to Baekyu and start talking about him helping the royal family manage the property. Saying that, Zhou Bian threw the bamboo slip in his hand aside, but it was a crackling sound, Zhou Bian suddenly frowned, "This bamboo slip is too heavy, this king will be like a way to find something to replace it in the future." ”

"Silk, or sheepskin, it's just that it's too expensive, not suitable for bookkeeping or anything." Jian Jia wondered.

In fact, what Zhou Bian thought of was another common thing in later generations, and it was not difficult to get it out, but he didn't want to say it at this time, and no one could believe it. So Zhou Bian smiled and said, "And your bookkeeping method is too ineffective, when you have time in the future, this king will teach you, it's really late today, this king is going to sleep." Zhou Bian yawned as he spoke.

Jian Jia was skeptical, although the young man in front of him had all kinds of whimsical ideas, but he still couldn't believe that there would be a miracle below. However, the king was finally about to rest, and the prison guard breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and withdrew.

In the early morning of the next day, the Ximen Barracks, which had been lively for half the night, sounded the loud military horn again, and the drunken soldiers were also shouted by their companions. At this time, in the Mingde Palace, the king also got up.

After breakfast, Zhou Bian casually asked Jian Jia, "Yesterday was the celebration banquet at the Ximen Barracks, how is the situation?" Where should it be today? ”

"Back to the king, the discipline in the camp is okay, and the soldiers are grateful to the king. Today should be the first team of Zhou Zhan guarding the gate, or the king's method is good, take turns to hold a celebration banquet, otherwise if it is done together, the safety of the royal family will not be easy to say. ”

"That's good, are they here, Taishi? I don't know what the harvest in my Luoyang area was yesterday this year. "At this time, it was the autumn harvest season, so after appeasing General Long and other Luoyang nobles and the whole city was stable, Taishi and others began to clean up the harvest of Wangji.

"It's been here a long time ago, and a group of ministers have come, waiting for the king. The Taishi looks beaming, but I'm afraid that there is good news to report to the king! ”

"Then you didn't say it sooner?" Zhou Bian should go out first, today is a small court meeting, the state affairs are not light, and Zhou Bian is naturally not a master of slacking off government.

The prison guard hurriedly followed, "The king slows down, it wasn't the old slave who didn't say it just now, but I saw that the king was having breakfast." Slow down, they're all waiting in the Vader Hall. ”

Soon arrived at the main hall, and sure enough, the master was happy, and when he saw the king, he greeted him, "King, this year's harvest is a bumper harvest." The harvest in Luoyang, Chengzhou and Gongyi is enough for the whole Luoyang area for a year! ”

Zhou Bian was overjoyed when he heard this, the people took food as the sky, in the past, because there were many people doing business in Luoyang, so Luoyang City had to import grain, which also led to the emergence of a large number of grain merchants such as Bai Gui, and it was really rare to have enough like this.
