Chapter 858: Worship

"This 10,000 taels can do a lot of big things. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Song Yingsheng smiled: "But the most important thing is to buy land and repay debts." You and I, there are about 2,000 taels in arrears, this time all of them will be paid off, and then 5,000 taels will be used to buy land, and you can get 1,000 acres of fertile land, and then buy a few oil mills and other shops, and talk about the income from subsidizing the cash, so that the family's embarrassment over the years can be regarded as a reward, and my brothers and sisters will no longer worry about family affairs. ”

"That's right." Song Yingsheng said again: "This time, Chang Gung, you have contributed the most, I think the family's income in the future, the big house will receive 30%, and the second room will get 70%, how about it?" ”

The Song brothers did not divide the family, this is the same as many scholarly families, the acres of land and income are all in the public, everyone shares, and then take a part out for each room to use, the usual daily expenses are also responsible for the public, only each house is its own money, each house can also buy its own private property, but it is not encouraged, in the big family, fairness is the most important, Song Yingsheng's proposal is also for fairness, not to make Song Yingxing feel uncomfortable.

"What did the eldest brother say?" Song Yingxing frowned and said: "You and I are here together, of course the income is from the public, if the eldest brother has any income, will you share the account with me alone?" ”

"Of course it won't be ......"

"That's it!" Song Yingxing said resolutely: "This matter is so decided." ”

"Speaking of which......" Song Yingsheng smiled and said: "I want to stay in Heyusheng and not leave, if I don't pass the exam again, even if I pick the magistrate of Xia County or the upper county to teach, after ten years of hard work, I may not be able to save ten thousand taels of silver." ”

"Exactly." Song Yingxing nodded and said, "Regarding the textile machine, I will submit a report tomorrow, and then officially start trial production." If this thing is done, I feel that it will not be 10,000 taels of silver, maybe the upper authorities will allow us to divide the account, then the profit will be too great, maybe tens of thousands of taels a year, and you can receive it for life. ”

"This ......"

The impact of this news and number on Song Yingsheng was also too great, and he couldn't help frowning and pondering.

……

The next day, Song Yingxing really went to submit the report.

Because he was too anxious and got up too early, the carriage didn't come, and Song Yingxing didn't care, just walk over a few miles away.

If it was in Jiangxi's hometown, that kind of place with a very clear hierarchy, Song Yingxing would not dare to walk like this, and if he was seen, he would lose his lord's dignity.

Here, you can walk freely and freely, even if you meet a crowd on the road, whether it is a farmer, a short-term worker, a manure picker, a pig killer who gets up early in the morning to kill pigs and sell them, and sells vegetables, the crowd is full of all kinds of people, but his face is full of leisurely and confident looks, even if he sees a military official like him, that is, he bows down and continues to walk, and the look on his face has not changed much.

This kind of bowing and saluting is just respecting and Yusheng and Zhang Han, respecting and Yusheng everything that Yusheng has brought to the place has not much to do with Song Yingxing's own status.

The soldiers who got up early to exercise ran back at this point in time, and the general age of the soldiers was around thirty, and they were all veterans who had been retired for several years in later generations, but they were out-and-out recruits in the war system of He Yusheng.

This year's expansion plan has long been completed, qualified young men are directly involved in the training of soldiers, at this time it is already the end of the year, most of the people who receive training are selected from the soldiers, but also a small number of recruits who have undergone strict assessment in physical fitness and will, their will, experience, and physical strength are very outstanding, otherwise they can only be selected as soldiers, and they can only be qualified in the soldiers, and only after the recommendation of the chief officer can they have the opportunity to participate in the soldier assessment, and then be selected into the ranks of soldiers.

In fact, even the soldiers are not recruiting new recruits, now there are more than 100 brigades of soldiers, the number is enough, more than 40,000 soldiers, more than 100,000 soldiers, so many troops are already the limit of Yusheng's supply, more than 5 million a year of military spending alone is the military salary accounts for most of the majority, this is still the silver two can be converted into silver dollars, silver dollars are mostly in the internal circulation and recycling of the result, if there is no such ingenious arrangement, the military salary alone can be pressed and Yusheng breathless.

There are now 110,000 people in Liaozhen, and the military salary expenditure has exceeded three million taels, and the treatment of soldiers in Liaozhen is not much worse than that of Yusheng, and the treatment of a soldier in Yusheng is not worse than that of Liaozhen's family, and the overall supply has thrown Liaozhen more than a dozen streets, so Liaozhen can't hold it, and the main reason for the reduction of the salary of the soldiers in the Yuan Chonghuan period is that the imperial court is too difficult to supply Liaozhen.

As the soldiers passed, passers-by stopped, and many waved to the soldiers.

In particular, the handymen near the snow sweeper and the dung picker, most of these people are homeless, so far in the second half of last year, most of the recruits are picked among the homeless, these homeless people can travel thousands of miles to Datong here, the physical fitness is actually very good, after a period of recuperation, they will recover their physical fitness, and then pick out the physical strength and courage to join the recruit camp training, because it is from the ordinary people, the training period of the recruits is much longer than that of the soldiers, and after a long time, the families of these homeless people have figured out the law. Even if the recruits can't leave the camp until the holidays, most of them will still be able to see their families.

There is still a lot of residual snow on both sides of the road, but the avenue is very clean, the straight road is pleasant, there are a lot of ice hangs on the trees on both sides, and some children are laughing and playing with long ice cubes.

After dawn, there is smoke rising in the village, to this hour, most of the families have eaten, there are few gamblers in the villages near Lizhuang, and even half of Datong is very few, originally people will play money to pass the time in the agricultural slack, now they can go to the various factories of Yusheng to do work, the slack these months, at least can earn the income of the previous half of the year, no one will give up such an opportunity.

The factories of the various bureaus have opened their doors, and the people who have come in to work after breakfast are walking on the road, and the officials of the military department are gradually appearing on the roads, and the carriages are beginning to increase.

Song Yingxing had some sweat on his forehead, and white mist began to rise on both sides of the hat on his head, and the distance of four or five miles was only a blink of an eye for the soldiers, which was also a long distance for a literati like him who had not undergone serious physical training.

A melodious bell rang not far away, and Song Yingxing saw a group of high-nosed and deep-eyed Tessie people walking towards a strange building.

"Hey, it's another Sunday for the Tessie."

"These people are really devout to their Bodhisattva."

"Don't say that to your face, people are called God, not Bodhisattva, be careful that Hongmaoyi pulls you to explain for a long time. These people have a good temper, but they can't stand being too verbose! ”

Not far away, there was the sound of people's discussions, and Song Yingxing also smiled.

There should be about 100 people in Lizhuang, some of them were the missionaries who followed Tang Ruowang at the beginning, more than a dozen came at that time, and a few of them left with Tang Ruowang in the past two years, but more than a dozen people came from the direction of Jingshi, adding up to more than 20 people.

Zhang Hante allowed them to build this small church here, in addition to their own worship, they were also allowed to preach, but in fact, their achievements were really very limited, and in two years, no more than 50 Christians were developed among the Chinese, which is really a bit embarrassing.

In addition to the missionaries, they are specialized personnel hired from Macao and other places over the years.

Some were artillery casting technicians in the Artillery Bureau, some specialized in firearms, and some were military instructors, responsible for teaching the European tactical phalanxes and tactics of this era.

Others teach philosophy and mathematics, geometry and other doctrines in schools.

There are also business partners and representatives.

In recent years, Zhang Han has strengthened the training of military formations, and Macao has also been recruiting mercenary officers and soldiers from various countries, of course, with the current level of He Yusheng, the kind of second-rate people who want to eat all over the world with a white face will definitely not be able to mix, and those who can participate must be former professional soldiers, which is also repeatedly emphasized by Datong, if it were not for this, with He Yusheng's financial resources, hundreds of people would have been recruited long ago.

Even Sun Yuanhua, when he was governor of Denglai, formed a company of mercenaries, mainly Portuguese, to train artillerymen and musketeers for Denglai Town, and was also responsible for combat missions.

It's a pity that Kong Youde launched the Wuqiao Mutiny, and these European mercenary officers and soldiers died in the mutiny.

Song Yingxing was also familiar with these missionaries, and he nodded to them.

"Hello, honorable sir."

Although it was the first time for Jose to come to Li Zhuang's side, he had already studied the clothing of the military officials, and he knew at a glance that Song Yingxing was a middle-level official with a not low status.

Seeing this gray-robed Taixi man take off his hat and greet him, Song Yingxing also hurriedly arched his hand.

Both sides were very clear about each other's etiquette, knowing that the other party greeted each other with very formal etiquette.

"Down there, Jose." José introduced himself with a smile on his face.

"Ah, Mr. Ho." Song Yingxing's original expression was indifferent, but this time he became very enthusiastic. He took José's hand and asked, "I heard that Mr. He brought a lot of novel machines this time?" ”

"Hmm." Jose said: "A textile machine, a computer, a microscope. ”

"I've heard about it under the microscope." Song Yingxing said: "I heard that the computer is much stronger than the abacus? ”

"I don't dare say that." Jose waved his hand and said, "Many Chinese have a strong sense of self-esteem, and I dare not say that Taixi goods must be better than Daming's things." ”

"Qi." Song Yingxing said disappreciatively: "Those boring people, good things are good things, it doesn't matter if it's Taixi or Daming." Could it be that my Ming Dynasty is China, and there are no smart people in other countries? ”

José smiled but didn't say anything.

Frederick on the side said, "Priest Jose, don't fall for him, Mr. Song must want to see the machine." ”

Jose realized this and said with a smile: "The machine has been handed over to the Miscellaneous Technology Research Institute, and I would like to express my heartfelt congratulations to Mr. Song on his work and considerable achievements. ”
