Chapter 220 Conversation

After thinking for a while, the Governor looked up at Wan Qiyang, and found that this young man was really very good, and after a few words, it really hit the question in his heart, and in this case, he could still talk eloquently, just this calm character was very good, not only respected the elders, but also was not afraid of power, and had a chance, if it was a wrong decision to marry his daughter to the other party.

"Someone, bring the young lady in!"

Suddenly, the Governor commanded in a loud voice. Immediately, after the tent door curtain was lifted, Xiao Qian walked in, and as soon as she came in, Xiao Qian immediately ran to Wan Qiyang's side and asked, "Childe, are you okay?" Did they hit you? ”

This sentence made the governor's old face really red and red, "Xiao Qian, what do you say, the soldiers under my uncle are all first-class good soldiers, what kind of generals have what kind of soldiers, you haven't heard of a soldier bear, a nest of bears, just look at these soldiers to know how uncle leads the troops." It's okay, did you hear it all outside just now? I'm so sorry, I was waiting for you to come and see my uncle this morning, but now you see that I came empty-handed, and it was really rude that I didn't even have a greeting gift! Wan Qianyang's words made the Governor Blush and blush.

"Hey! I said, boy, you were cheapened and sold well! This is not the place to talk, let's go to the general's barracks. The old man has already prepared a thin wine, how about suppressing the shock for the kid? The governor's tone was obviously a big change, and Xiao Qian was also a little surprised after hearing it, of course she was very happy in her heart.

"Uncle, please first!" Wan Qiyang is naturally the first to hold his fists!

The two men followed the governor to another tent not far from here, except for a few low tables with carpets on the floor, plates of snacks and dried meats, and a jar of wine.

"Nephew, please sit down, let's all sit down and talk." The Governor motioned for Wan Qiyang to take a seat, and at the same time even changed his title.

"Uncle, please!" Wan Qiyang naturally returned the salute, and Xiao Qian sat on the other side close to the Governor.

"The conditions in the army are difficult and simple, please bear with me!" The Governor is now obviously also treating Wan Qianyang's identity in the position of one master and the other guest, so that everyone can have something to say openly.

"Uncle is also a leading example, playing an exemplary role, it is really a high wind and bright festival, as the saying goes, 'mercy does not lead soldiers', uncle not only brought soldiers but also has such a sensible daughter Xiaoqian, but also makes the younger generations admire, yesterday Xiaoqian's actions also made the kid very admired, the people are in trouble, everyone is responsible, but this is just talking, in fact, there are not many people who can think of these, let alone Xiaoqian, who is still put into action." Wan Qianyang's sycophant shot made the father and daughter quite comfortable.

"The virtuous nephew has won the award, I really don't dare to be it, the old man is ashamed to talk about this, the little girl does these things herself, and the old man is also happy to be able to do this!" The Governor also sighed with emotion, "Come, virtuous nephew, the old man apologizes for his mistakes today, let's make this toast together." ”

"The younger generation really doesn't dare to be, this glass of wine should be honored by the younger generation, and the younger generation should learn from the uncle's selfless spirit of dedication to the country and the people. The younger generation does it first for respect! "Wan Qianyang's empty stomach is a glass of wine, but I didn't expect the wine in this barracks to be much stronger than that of the neighborhood wine shops. directly made Wan Qiyang cough, out of the foreign appearance!

"I'm sorry, it's so embarrassing, I didn't expect this wine to be so strong, it's rude." Wan Qiyang hurriedly expressed his rudeness.

"The virtuous nephew is really a man of temperament, and he is really right about the old man's temper. Hahaha! "Your Excellency the Governor saw that Wan Qiyang actually drank a large glass in one gulp, this strong wine was originally a special supply for the barracks, and it was specially used for the soldiers who went into battle.

"Daddy, you know that your son doesn't even have to eat, and you still drink." Xiao Qian saw that Wan Qiyang was choked and blushed uncomfortably, and naturally felt distressed.

"Haha, hey, what a woman! Before I passed the door, I wasn't here with my father! After that, the Governor poured himself a drink.

"Daddy, what are you talking about? Don't you disagree! Xiao Qian naturally heard the meaning from her father's words.

"Uncle, there is something unclear about the juniors, can you solve the doubts for the juniors?" Wan Qiyang finally got better after a few sips of tea, but his throat was still a little hot.

"Oh? What is the matter with the virtuous nephew? ”

"It seems to me that the soldiers in the barracks are all disciplined, but they are all yellow and thin, and they are obviously malnourished. Could it be that the court has delayed the military again? Wan Qianyang's words also directly hit the sore spot of the governor.

"It's not a secret, this is a military secret and must not be told to outsiders, and the virtuous nephew is not an outsider now, that is, the grain sent to the capital by the lucky boat you took was the tax grain that should be paid tribute to this year's summer grain, but due to the floods in the Jingjiang River basin for many years, the people have no harvest, and everyone has fled to death, but the annual tax has not changed. So seeing that the time is coming, but not being able to collect all the summer grain will cause more chaos, so the old man first deducted part of the soldier's food, and now you also see that there are only two meals in the army a day, so the virtuous nephew is also hungry at noon, what a mistake! "The Governor is also very helpless!

"So that includes the sergeant's rations? Is it a lack of money in the army or a lack of food in the market!? Wan Qiyang felt a little strange, so he wanted to ask for clarification.

"Virtuous nephew, why are you so concerned about this matter?" Naturally, the Governor had some doubts.

"In fact, as far as I know, there is no food shortage in the capital, and the grain collected around the capital for this summer is enough, and there is still grain coming from the canal. I think my uncle has wronged himself and the officers and soldiers like this, but those high-ranking officials in the capital don't know what you have done. There is a folk saying that only crying children have milk to eat, and my uncle is indeed thinking about the people, but from another point of view, if even the children and soldiers who protect the safety of the people can't eat, then who is willing to continue to work hard! Wan Qianyang's words were very direct, "Uncle, it's better to buy grain from the grain merchant first, so as to avoid the price of grain rising sharply due to the famine." It's not a way just to make the soldiers hungry, and in the future, if there is food to go to Beijing, you have to get some food before you can release it, and you will be treated with special treatment. This is a little suggestion from the juniors, if there is anything that needs the juniors to contribute, just say it! Wan Qiyang knew that the governor of Caoyun in the Ming Dynasty was in charge of the northern transportation of grain in the world, and those who served as the governor of Caoyun were all members of the second grade or above. The affairs of the provinces must be managed by the Huai'an Cao Supervision Office. It has jurisdiction over the grain roads, Caobiao and health stations in all provinces. The governor of the Ming Dynasty was also the governor of the four prefectures and three prefectures in Jiangbei, and was the most important local official in the Ming Dynasty, but I don't know what time it was.
