Chapter 123: Troubles
Seeing that Li Maochun agreed without hesitation, Yang He sighed and said: "Big brother, if this side is handed over to you, you will have to run at both ends, in the long run, even the iron man can't stand it, I don't think it's as good as this, Zhao Liangsong has been with you for so long, and many affairs are almost familiar, you can explain the specific matters to him, and I will let Qizhi help you lining, you just need to take care of it, so that you can be more relaxed." ”
Li Maochun nodded: "Zhao Liangsong, this kid is very careful, and he can rest assured that he can arrange errands for him." ”
"There's one thing you have to grasp, and that's money, and money has to be in your hands. It's not that you don't worry about them, but if you don't keep an eye on them, in the long run, it's hard to ensure that they don't do anything stupid. Yang He said.
Li Maochun smiled when he heard this: "Aren't you afraid that your eldest brother will do something foolish?" ”
Yang He smiled: "We are brothers, if you use money, how much do you want to talk to your brother, can your brother still give it to you?" Do you need to bother with that? ”
When Li Maochun heard this, he punched Yang He in the chest: "Good brother." ”
Yang He smiled and continued: "Okay, now I'll tell you how to build this salt farm." ”
"Lord Yang, wait a minute." Money has money and is busy.
Yang He smiled: "If you have any questions, just say it." ”
"My lord, it is not a trivial matter to build a private salt factory, and the salt workers who cook salt cannot use outsiders, and some houses need to be built here, and outsiders cannot be used to build houses." Money has money.
Yang He nodded and said, "That's right, you really can't use outsiders, but don't worry." The villagers here are all our people, and they won't betray us. ”
Qian Youcai hurriedly said: "Since you are an adult, there is no problem." ”
Yang He smiled. Pointing to the seaside, he said: "You see, this place is deep in the sea, and even at low tide, the sea water will not recede too much, which is very convenient for us to draw seawater, so I built a salt farm here, as long as the house is built, you can start boiling salt." ”
"That's what my lord said." Money has money.
Money has money, and the voice has just fallen. Suddenly, a soldier came hurrying up.
After saluting Yang He and Li Maochun, the soldier said, "Lord Qiqi, there is a man named Cao Wenzhao who asks to see him." ”
"Cao Wenzhao looking for me? What about people? Yang Heqi said.
"In the new barracks." The soldier said.
Yang He continued: "Did Cao Wenzhao say that he was looking for me something?" ”
The soldier said, "I didn't say it." ”
Yang He pondered for a while. Turning his head to Li Maochun and Qian Youcai, he said, "Big brother, Mr. Qian, you two can discuss the matter of the salt farm, um." Don't make it too big in the early stage. Arrange a hundred people to boil salt first, and see the effect, Mr. Qian, I will leave all the things about boiling salt to you, and all the salt workers will be in charge of you, and if you have anything, you will find my eldest brother. ”
"The big man is important, and the villain must do the errand assigned by the adult." Money has money and is busy.
"Big brother, I'll go back first. You go to Uncle Dong's house for dinner in the evening, and let him arrange a place for you to live. Yang He said.
Li Maochun smiled: "Busy with your go." ”
Yang He didn't say much. Take Li Wei and the soldier with him.
Back in the new barracks, Yang He washed his face and asked Cao Wenzhao to be invited.
After a while, Cao Wenzhao came to Yang He's military tent and saw Yang He, Cao Wenzhao hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Cao Wenzhao has seen an adult. ”
Yang He cupped his fists and saluted back: "Brother Cao is polite, come, please take a seat." ”
"Master Xie." Cao Wenzhao said busily.
After Cao Wenzhao sat down, Yang He ordered the soldiers to serve tea, and then smiled at Cao Wenzhao: "Brother Cao doesn't know what to do with Yang here?" ”
Cao Wenzhao said with a smile: "I heard that adults are training recruits, and Cao wants to learn how to train soldiers from adults." ”
Yang He shook his head and smiled: "You heard that Yang's training method is different from others, and you want to find out, right?" ”
Cao Wenzhao smiled: "You can't hide anything from adults." ”
Yang He smiled: "You must have seen it at this time, what do you think?" ”
"Amazing, I have trained to such a level in more than two months, and I admire it to the fullest." Cao Wenzhao said busily.
Yang He waved his hand: "Brother Cao has won the award, these recruits are just a little bit now, and they are still early to become an army." ”
"You can't do it without actual combat." Cao Wen said.
Yang He smiled and nodded.
Yang He took a sip of the teacup, and then raised his hand to signal Cao Wenzhao to drink tea.
After Cao Wenzhao took a sip of tea, Yang He smiled and said, "Brother Cao is here, it won't be just to see me train recruits, right?" ”
Cao Wenzhao sighed and said: "Your lord's eyes are like torches, and you are here to ask for help." ”
"Tell me, as long as I can help, I will definitely help." Yang He said with a smile.
"Lord Yang, the brothers haven't been paid for three months, I wonder if you can talk to the people in the court and give the brothers a military salary." Cao Wen said.
Yang He smiled when he heard this: "Brother Cao, are you kidding?" I'm just the head of the military department, and I'm only in charge of selecting and training new soldiers, supervising ordnance, and paying for the military, how can I manage it? ”
Cao Wenzhao hurriedly said: "I also know that the lord doesn't care about the military salary, and the humble post just wants to ask the lord to help and talk to the people in the court." ”
"Who is there in my court?" Yang He said with a smile.
Cao Wenzhao hurriedly said: "If there is no one in the court, how can you be directly promoted to the head of the department?" ”
Yang He couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
After a while, Yang He sighed softly and said, "Brother Cao, I won't tell you, there is really no one in my court, and the lord who promoted me has now been transferred to the governor of Denglai." ”
"Lord Yang is talking about Lord Yuan Keli, right?" Cao Wenzhao asked.
"Yes." Yang He nodded.
Cao Wenzhao sighed softly when he heard this.
Seeing that Cao Wenzhao's mood was a little low, Yang He thought for a while and asked, "Brother Cao, who told you that I have a relationship with the court." ”
Cao Wenzhao smiled bitterly: "The officials in Liaodong all say so, and the brothers under the lowly position know that the lord once gave the lowly post a horse, and think that the lowly position has a lot to do with the adult, so he instigated the lowly post to come to the adult for help, and the lowly post was also forced to ask the adult for help. ”
Yang He nodded silently when he heard this.
After thinking about it, Yang He said: "Brother Cao, I won't hide it from you, I really have nothing to do with the court, I can't help this matter, but I can help you." ”
"Huh? Helping the lowly duty? What do you mean? Cao Wenzhao wondered.
Yang He smiled and said, "Brother Cao, I don't know how many brothers you have?" ”
Cao Wenzhao hurriedly said: "There are only about a hundred people under the lowly position. ”
"For a hundred people, five hundred taels of silver for three months' military salary is enough, in this way, Brother Cao, I will give you five hundred taels of silver, and you can take it back and pay your brothers." Yang He said.
"How does this work?" Cao Wenzhao waved his hand again and again.
Yang He smiled and said: "Brother Cao, I know the difficulty of leading troops, if you want to make your brothers obedient, you can't do it without money." ”
"But it's a humble job...... Humble ......" Cao Wenzhao didn't know what to say for a while.
"You're afraid you won't have the money to pay me back, right?" Yang He said with a smile.
Smiling, Yang He continued: "This money is for you, I don't want you to pay it back." ”
"The humble position is just a small boss, I don't know why adults are so loving?" Cao Wenzhao groaned.
Yang He smiled: "Some people in this world feel that they are in love as soon as they meet, when I first met Brother Cao, I felt that I fell in love with Brother Cao, do you think this reason will work?" ”
Cao Wenzhao was speechless for a while when he heard this.
After being silent for a while, Cao Wenzhao suddenly said: "Lord Meng can afford to be lowly in the future, if the adult has a place to get a lowly position, the adult can only command." ”
Yang He smiled and waved his hand: "I just said, I just feel that I am in love with you, I don't need you to help me do anything, I don't hide it from you, what I want to do, there are people under me." ”
"Yes, it's reckless." Cao Wenzhao said busily.
Yang He smiled: "Brother Cao is a man of temperament, how can he be said to be reckless?" I just want to tell Brother Cao that I personally don't need Brother Cao's help, but if it's official business, I can't say for sure. ”
"Whether it is public or private, as long as the adult can use the humble position, the adult can only speak." Cao Wen said.
Yang He smiled and nodded.
Picking up the teacup and taking a slow sip of tea, Yang He suddenly asked, "Brother Cao, you just said that the brothers have not been paid for three months, I don't know if there is any change in the army?" ”
Cao Wenzhao sighed and said, "Many people are clamoring for wages. ”
"Trouble?" Yang He's face was solemn when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Cao, you listen to me, don't care what others do, you must restrain your brothers." ”
Cao Wenzhao smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, the robes in the army advance and retreat together, if other battalions make trouble, how can they ignore their humble duties?" After such a humble position, what kind of face will I have to meet you robes. ”
Yang He hurriedly said: "Brother Cao, if you really can't push back, you will only follow behind others, don't take the lead." ”
"Yes, thank you for your advice." Cao Wenzhao said busily.
Yang He waved his hand, pondered for a while, and said, "Brother Cao, whose subordinate are you?" ”
"The humble position is Du Yingkui's subordinate." Cao Wenzhao said busily.
"Du Yingkui? It's the deputy commander-in-chief, right? Yang He asked.
"Yes." Cao Wenzhao said busily.
Yang He nodded: "When I have a chance in the future, I will talk to Mr. Du to see if I can bring you over." Well...... Brother Cao, if you are asked to train recruits, you have no opinion, right? ”
"This ......" Cao Wenzhao groaned slightly, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "I'm afraid that the lowly training of soldiers will not meet the requirements of adults." ”
Yang He smiled: "If Brother Cao can't train well, I'm afraid no one can train well." ”
Cao Wenzhao looked at Yang He, and for a while he didn't understand why Yang He was so important to himself.
Raising his eyes and looking at the sky, Yang He smiled and said, "Brother Cao, it's time for dinner, let's eat first, and I'll ask someone to fetch you silver after eating." ”
"Thank you, sir." Cao Wenzhao said busily.
Yang He smiled and waved his hand, and ordered Li Wei to bring two meals to the camp tent.
After a while, Li Wei came in with a soldier with food.
waved at Cao Wenzhao, Yang He smiled and said: "I didn't make special arrangements, this is all eaten by the soldiers, Brother Cao, don't dislike it." ”
Cao Wenzhao hurriedly said: "Adults can eat, how dare you dislike it." ”
Yang He smiled, picked up a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Cao Wenzhao, and made a gesture of please.
Then I picked up the chopsticks, picked up the rice bowl, put a few mouthfuls of food into the rice bowl, and ate it in a big gulp. (To be continued.) )
