Liang Xing said with a smile: "I just heard that Han Lao Liu also bought hundreds of acres of land, I don't feel good in my heart, in recent years, there are many rich shopkeepers and people in the mine who have bought land, there is no land near Lizhuang, they are in Lingqiu or Guangling, or Datong Mansion to buy, we are bound by military discipline, but none of them dare to make a move."

Zhang Han smiled slightly, but did not make a sound.

Liang Xing hurriedly said: "I don't dare to complain, the adult's decision is very right, at the beginning of the business, if everyone buys a house and land, who is willing to fight hard, and blames the adult, the monthly salary and bonus for us are too much......"

Zhang Han and Wang Changfu were stunned when they heard this, Liang Xing came to his senses, gently gave himself a mouthful, and scolded with a smile: "Look at my broken mouth." ”

Wang Changfu said in a deep voice: "Anyway, we all tell the adults what we have in our hearts, and now the soldiers are staring at these places, and their eyes are very red. We also know that the land on the grassland can be reclaimed, and the Bansheng land supports nearly 100,000 Han people at the most, and now there are tens of thousands of Han people farming in those Bansheng lands, and they can grow good land with the Tartars, we have Mr. Kong......"

Zhang Han said: "Everyone has divided the land, and Mr. Kong will help you plant it from house to house?" ”

The two army leaders looked at each other, and they were speechless.

"Do you know how many people you have to recruit to cultivate the land here, how to fatten it, how to plant it, what to plant, and how many tenants you need to plant and harvest it?"

"We don't know."

"It's up to the adults to decide."

Zhang Han said with a smile: "I have to give you the land, and then help you recruit tenant farmers, teach you how to plant, and finally sell the grain you harvest to me, is that good?" ”

Wang Changfu blurted out, clapped his hands and said, "This is the best." ”

This time, Liang Xing was stunned when he heard this.

Zhang Han paused and scolded with a smile: "You two bastards, get out of here." It is a good thing to want the land to be a good thing, which shows that everyone has confidence in He Yusheng, but you also have to think about it, it is useless to have land, and it is true to turn the land into real profits, otherwise you will take a month's salary, and then paste the money into the ground, why are you suffering? ”

This time, the two military leaders hurriedly stood up, and the two saluted and hurriedly retreated.

Zhang Han heard the quarrel between the two outside, as if they were complaining to each other, and they laughed unconsciously.

After laughing for a while, Zhang Han also fell into deep thought.

Laying such a large territory, and definitely eating, people's hearts are alive, this is also human feelings, not to mention the instability of the army or the greed of the generals.

Just like a beautiful woman takes off her clothes and sleeps in a man's arms, the one who can sit still is definitely not a normal person, as a superior person, you have to start from the seven emotions and six desires of normal people to judge things, some things can be forced for a while, such as Zhang Han resolutely does not allow soldiers to buy land privately, in the case of a good monthly salary and senior generals receiving bonuses from Zhang Han's private income, this suppression will not cause much backlash.

If a superior person does not dare to suppress his subordinates, or cannot suppress it, such as Yuan Shikai in the late Qing Dynasty, when he can't suppress the martial artists below, the Beiyang Group under his command will become a warlord, and blindly high pressure, even if it is suppressed, will make the internal centrifugal and detached, and eventually collapse.

Zhang Han's expression is always very relaxed, the matter in front of him is not a big deal, financially it can be alleviated by the captured cattle, sheep and horses, and there may be a batch of silver from sea trade to the end of the year, even if it is not much, it is not without a small supplement, the important thing is that Zhang Han feels that the winter is coming, those who are not good at financial management, or the primitive tribes to the slave country are too much of the Houjin nobles are estimated to have wasted Guangning's income, even if there is the rest in the private hands of those big Baylor, The rulers of the Later Jin Dynasty are far from qualified as the rulers of a country, and when they are almost tossed, it should be the time for a shortage of food and materials, and when that time comes, of course, it is time to make a lot of money with Yusheng.

……

It was nearly November, the hustle and bustle on the grassland gradually turned calm, the aftermath of the war had subsided, and there were several heavy snowfalls in a row, and there was no green in the grassland, and the turf under the snow had become a yellow patch, and the wild beasts were hidden, and there was not much to see, only the yellow sheep or wild camels that were occasionally seen moving slowly on the grassland in the distance, and from time to time they looked down and nibbled on the dead grass under the snow.

At this time, the beasts were very tired, people suspended hunting, the pastures of all departments shrank badly, Lu Dafu took his entire banner team of subordinates from the east of the Inner Khalkha five places back to Jiningbao to rest, along the way more than a thousand miles almost no Mongols, accidentally met a sporadic shepherd with a horse pole, once he saw the banner of the Yusheng cavalry, immediately fled like a ghost without a trace.

Lu Dafu and others came all the way, their self-confidence was simply bursting, and many people discussed, it seems that the effect of going north this year is remarkable, and the northern captives are already very afraid, and the entire grassland seems to have changed owners.

Speaking of which, the casualties of the Beiyu are not heavy, a total of less than 5,000 beheadings, but think about it is half a year of beheading, plus the main force of the Beiyu has been defeated several times, plus the thousands of dead and wounded are all strong men and armor soldiers, and the other people who ran away, disappeared, and the herdsmen who were killed by Zhou Yao and others were not included in the number of beheadings.

When they approached the vicinity of Jining Fort, a Tang Ma led them outside a camp, and a general-level military and political officer designated a camp for Lu Dafu and others to rest.

Compared with sleeping in a tent on the road, this camp is simple, but the place is big enough, and the dormitory area is also very well repaired, it is a fixed house, not a tent, each dormitory has a fire pit, with coal, that is, coal to make a fire, there are vents in the house, not afraid of poisoning, in addition to the canteen and office area have standard stoves, this iron stove can be boiled and heated after the fire, and it is also a great weapon for Yusheng to market the entire north, the profit is very high, the middle-class family is used, and the rooms in the barracks are everywhere, For this reason alone, the welfare of the military has left everyone speechless.

Arriving at the designated dormitory, dropping down the parcels, bringing the beans for the horses, and taking care of the horses by themselves, it was time for dinner.

This battalion was garrisoned with more than 4,000 people, including more than 500 soldiers, and the rest were all composed of soldiers and people, because the location was in the west of Jining Fort, and the number of soldiers and people was large, and to the west was the continuous mountain range, Lu Dafu concluded that the place where he was stationed was the place where the copper mine was found in legend.

Both the court and the people of the Ming Dynasty are very short of copper, everyone knows the value of copper, and the discovery of copper ore is good news for everyone.

Lu Dafu and the others looked at the mountain range where the copper mine was located, and everyone was smiling.

There were four canteens in the camp, and after everyone had cleaned up, the bell rang for dinner, and everyone rushed to the canteen with their iron lunch boxes, except for the soldiers who were still training.

There are a lot of people, fortunately this is a barracks, the officers lead the team to walk without hurry, there is also a military judge of the Department of Military Justice standing at the door, it is almost impossible to squeeze or cut in line, eat after eating, and are not allowed to move around at will, talk, talk and laugh, and the military canteen is basically only a slight sound when eating.

The dishes are also very rich, each person received a large piece of roasted mutton, a spoonful of stewed cabbage and pickled radish, the mutton is not surprising, there are more than 200,000 sheep sent to Jiningbao here alone, and each department has kept some sheep, this time almost every few days to eat a meal of roast mutton, the most greedy people have enough teeth sacrifice.

The meat tasted delicious, and everyone was delighted that in addition to the fresh cabbage and radish, everyone also had a spoonful of canned food made of fruit.

The canned food is sealed in a glass bottle, and the fruits and vegetables are heated to remove impurities, which can be kept fresh for half a year after sealing, and the weather has been cold recently, and the canned fruits opened in each can are very fresh, Lu Dafu and his subordinates can't wait to taste it, it feels fragrant and sweet, the entrance is greasy and smooth, and everyone has a smile on their faces.

At this time, Lu Dafu saw an acquaintance, saw that the military judge was far away, he strode behind the acquaintance with a tray, slapped the other party on the back, and then laughed in a low voice: "Zhang Chunniu, you dog, you have enjoyed a lot of blessings here, right?" ”

Zhang Chunniu was startled when he was slammed, and when he turned around and saw that it was Lu Dafu, he showed a heartfelt smile on his face at the moment, and after listening to Lu Dafu's words, Zhang Chunniu said: "It's been idle recently, and our soldiers are expected to stay to repair the copper mine, and do this with the people." ”

As soon as he heard about the copper mine, Lu Dafu immediately became interested, and continued to lower his voice: "I heard that the copper mine is big and easy to mine, isn't it?" ”

"Almost." Zhang Chunniu had already finished eating, wiped his mouth, and whispered: "I have a friend in the Military and Political Department, and I heard him say that hundreds of thousands of catties of copper can be mined in the first year, and the reserves that are easy to mine are at least more than one million catties. ”

"Okay." Lu Dafu was very happy, he said: "Mining copper, not only can we cast the copper of the cannon have been found, but we can also cast some copper coins ourselves." ”

"This matter is very complicated, the coinage must be minted, but Li Zhuang is already planning to mint silver coins, I don't know if the copper coins and silver coins can be made, whether the military secretary can be busy."

"With the ability of Officer Li, I will definitely be busy."

The two officers were very happy, it was not in vain that he and Yusheng were a group, the military department did not have enough money, although it did not affect the salaries of the soldiers, but there were many people who were worried about it.

The details of the financial situation are confidential, but there is no prejudice to concern.

Going north and going south, how much silver will be used, it is really like mud and sand, many officers are worried when they discuss it in private, lest Lord Zhang will not be able to hold on, and finding such a large copper mine is definitely a big good news.
