Chapter 56: Never Available
Speaking of this, Hu Chenghe paused, he was holding a silver ticket in his hand, and there were only five of them, and he couldn't distribute them to everyone at all.
However, this matter is not difficult for him!
Hu Chenghe continued to shout: "If you call your name, step forward and press your handprint, and exchange every two taels of silver for three hundred catties of rice, that is to say, each of you can receive three hundred catties of rice!" ”
This is calculated by Hu Chenghe according to the military household roster, there are a total of 527 people in the household, one tael of silver can buy more than 300 catties of rice, and each person will be distributed according to 300 catties of rice, which can just make up for the vacancy of 27 extra people, after all, the silver is only 500 taels, and he must think about everyone in the household, and he cannot favor one over the other.
Although it was empty food, the five silver tickets were clutched tightly in Hu Chenghe's hands, and the military households did not suspect that this was fake at all, after all, Hu Chenghe had been in the Baihu Institute for a long time, and he was very familiar with them, and he was honest and upright, and he would not deceive them by deceiving.
Hu Chenghe took the roster from the guards and began to shout: "Wang Dagou ......, Liao Sanwa ......, He Fat Niu ......, Zhang Erya ......,"
Hundreds of military households stepped forward one by one according to the names they had pointed out, and put their handprints on Hu Chenghe's roster.
After everyone pressed the handprint, the sun had begun to set in the west, and the slanting sun shone through, and the soldiers who had been dead and silent in the twilight were full of excitement, and they were dancing one by one and said what should happen if they had food in the future.
Yang Xiaoyu was bored inside, practicing the swordsmanship taught by Chen Yingren during this time in the courtyard.
"My lord, the roster has been counted, do you have anything else to say?" Hu Chenghe ran in and asked.
Of course, Yang Xiaoyu has something to say, but it is not at this time, when Hu Chenghe was on the roll call before, he sent Wang Chong to ride a fast horse and go back to the mansion to carry some meat and grain, according to the time, Wang Chong should also come back.
From here to the city, it only takes an hour to ride a horse, and when you return, according to the speed of the carriage, it will only take three hours at most!
It has been nearly four hours since Hu Chenghe counted the roster!
"You let them wait at the gate first, and the official sent his retinue to the city to buy some meat and food, and they will be back in a while, and when the food comes back, it will be distributed according to the head, so that they can have a good meal tonight." Yang Xiaoyu said casually.
"Is this true, sir?" Hu Chenghe asked excitedly.
"Will this official still deceive you?" Yang Xiaoyu glanced at Hu Chenghe and said angrily.
Hu Chenghe knew that he had lost his words, so he hurriedly smiled and apologized: "My lord, the military households have not eaten a full meal for nearly a month, and I heard that there is rice and meat, and I lost my words for a while, please forgive me!" ”
Although Yang Xiaoyu's heart is not broad-minded, he still has the capacity to accommodate people!
He ignored Hu Chenghe's words of apology, turned around and continued to practice swordsmanship!
At the time of tea, Wang Chong came back with several guards in the palace and escorted two carriages.
The carriage was loaded with eight bags of grain and two large pork, with more than 300 catties of meat and more than 1,200 catties of grain.
Yang Xiaoyu asked the guards guarding the gate to set up a wooden board in front of the door of the hundred households, and put the grain on it for distribution, a military household has three catties of grain and half a catty of pork!
Hu Cheng and Lehe
Yang Xiaoyu doesn't want to talk too much nonsense, military households are the bottom people of this era, they are used to a poor life, although they don't have brocade clothes and food, but they have a pair of real fire eyes, they can distinguish a person's good from bad, and see a person's essence clearly!
Listening to Hu Chenghe's sound of using a scoop to decimorate, the military households let out hearty laughter, and when Yang Xiaoyu lamented that the low-level characters were easy to satisfy, he was also sighing, "Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road!" ”
The rich gentry have a lot of wealth, the officials have a golden house, the scholars talk about the wind and the moon, and the beauties dance lightly in the spring courtyard, but they can't see that the people of the Ming Dynasty are living in dire straits, especially under the banner of the prosperous era, rendering the health and wealth, weaving the dream of the heavenly empire.
"Peng Deming, the right general banner, has seen Yang Baihu!"
A neutral voice startled Yang Xiaoyu, who was sighing, and turned to look, only to see a middle-aged man in his forties, who was thin and nearly forty years old, standing three steps behind him.
The middle-aged man was wearing a shabby mandarin duck robe, with a saber hanging from his waist, and was saluting him.
Yang Xiaoyu took a step forward, two steps apart, made a no-bow gesture with his right arm, and said: "This official is new to your place, and I hope that Mr. Peng will support him a lot!" ”
This is a polite statement, but it sounds a little cowardly!
However, Peng Deming didn't think so, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy can take over the hundred households in Youwan, either there are people above, or he has real skills!
Whether it is the former or the latter, the new hundred households are not something he can provoke after all, besides, as soon as Yang Xiaoyu took office, he solved the problem of food for the military households, which shows that he knows how to buy people's hearts and prescribe the right medicine.
Therefore, Peng Deming was sincerely afraid of Yang Xiaoyu's 'courtesy'.
Yang Xiaoyu didn't know much about the military affairs of the Baihu Office when he first came to Guidi, and after greeting Peng Deming, he asked: "Peng Zongqi, how many guards are there guarding the dock?" ”
Peng Deming replied: "Your Excellency, Youwan Wharf is the main waterway for goods to enter Hangzhou Prefecture, no matter day or night, someone must be guarded, fifty people in the left banner are responsible for the day, fifty people in the right banner are responsible for the night, and the remaining four guards, due to their age or physical illness, stay on duty in the hundred households!" ”
"You're on duty tonight?" Yang Xiaoyu looked at Peng Deming's shrewd face and asked out loud.
"If you go back to the adult, it's the villain!" Peng Deming replied truthfully.
Yang Xiaoyu thought about it for a while, since this person was on duty, why didn't he go to the dock to take a look, and then said: "When you change the guard, this official will go with you!" ”
"Yes!" Peng Deming didn't know what Yang Baihu meant in front of him, but he couldn't resist in the slightest, and hurriedly replied.
The sun is setting, and the red light is shining on the earth!
At the gate of the 100 households, a group of marching households spontaneously lined up, holding cloths, burdens, wooden stabs and other things, waiting to receive grain and meat.
Yang Xiaoyu didn't say much to Peng Deming, and after asking about trivial matters, he sent Peng Deming out.
For him, a general banner with a bad heart and a long life is not worthy of his wooing, nor is it worthy of his promotion!
From the bottom of his heart, Yang Xiaoyu painted Peng Deming a 'never available' sign!
There are nearly 200 million people in the Ming Dynasty, and fifty percent of them are not upright people! The remaining fifty percent are either short-lived ghosts, or too ambitious, or pedantic people, and there are very few true gentlemen.
There are countless people like Peng Deming in the Ming Dynasty, and Yang Xiaoyu will not get rid of such people one by one!
As long as Peng Deming doesn't violate his will, he can turn a blind eye to other things!
When night was approaching, more than half of the military households received food and meat and happily went home to cook.
