If you want to conquer the hearts of the soldiers, you have to help the soldiers solve practical difficulties, and if you want to help the soldiers solve the difficulties, you must first understand what difficulties they have.

After inquiring about the situation of several soldiers' families, Yang He found that most of the soldiers' families were living in difficulty, mainly because their families had no land, or very little land, and they did not rely on military salaries to support their families.

And if people eat whole grains, there is no one who does not get sick, and it is difficult to support the family, and if someone in the family is sick, it is tantamount to adding insult to injury.

After listening to the soldier's story, Yang He put down his rice bowl, sighed and said to Hei Yunhe: "Big brother, brothers are born and die with us, but the family has no food and clothing, we are sorry for the brothers!" ”

Black Cloud Crane also sighed: "Yes, but we can't do anything about it. ”

Yang He shook his head: "We can't solve the military salary, but what about the fields?" Don't we still have some money? Take out some of it and buy some land for your brothers, brother, you can calculate how much land you have to buy and how much silver you need. ”

Hei Yunhe looked at Yang He and said, "Including the families of the fallen soldiers?" ”

Yang He nodded: "It's all counted." ”

Heiyunhe muttered: "If you include the families of the fallen soldiers, it is nearly 10,000 people, two acres of land for one person, that is, two hundred hectares of land, one acre of land is about one tael of silver, and two hundred hectares of land is twenty thousand taels of silver." ”

(The price of the land is calculated according to the price of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the information comes from the special collection of the Hubei Provincial Archives, which contains a land sale contract for the seventh year of the Apocalypse, a person named Liang Tianci sold one acre of seven cents of land to others for one tael of three dollars and five cents of silver, in fact, one acre of land is less than one tael of silver, the current time of this book is the second year of the Apocalypse, and the land price should be slightly higher, so it is calculated according to one or two silver.) In addition, the price of land is different in different places, and there may be discrepancies, if there is a mistake, please understand. ）

After a pause, Black Cloud Crane continued: "But if you buy wasteland, you won't need so much money. ”

"Can you grow crops in the wasteland?" Yang He wondered.

"Why not?" Black Cloud Crane laughed.

Raising his hand and pointing forward, Heiyunhe continued: "This wasteland at the foot of the mountain in front of you can grow crops, as long as you cultivate it with your heart and then bring the water of the Dashihe River over, it will become fertile land in less than three years." ”

Yang He stood up and looked in the direction pointed by the black cloud crane, only to see that the terrain at the foot of the mountain was very flat, and if it was cultivated with heart, I am afraid it could really become fertile land.

After looking at it for a while, Yang He said, "Big brother, how much silver do you estimate to cost an acre of this wasteland?" ”

Hei Yunhe said with a smile: "The wasteland is not valuable, one or two pieces of silver can buy several acres, if you know the people in the government, a little bit, I estimate that one or two pieces of silver can be bought for ten acres and twenty acres." ”

Yang He nodded and said to Hei Yunhe, "Where does this belong here?" ”

"It seems to be under the control of Funing County." Black Cloud Crane Road.

Zhang Mingxian said with a smile: "Tomorrow, let's go to Funing County to distribute silver to the families of the fallen soldiers, and we just go to Funing County to take a trip." In my opinion, it is better to go to the county government first to buy this piece of land, and then directly take over the families of the brothers. ”

"Okay, that's it." Yang He said.

Listening to Yang He and Hei Yunhe discussing the purchase of land, a soldier boldly asked, "Master Qian, Shen Rong, is this land bought for us?" ”

Zhang Mingxian smiled: "Aren't you talking nonsense!" Didn't President Yang Qian and Shen Rong just discuss buying land for you just now! ”

Still in disbelief, the soldier asked again, "Are you really buying us a field?" ”

Yang He nodded, looked at the soldiers and smiled: "Are you willing to endure hardships to reclaim wasteland?" ”

The soldier hurriedly said: "Mr. Yang Qian, we are already grateful for the fields you bought for us, what wasteland is not wasteland, and a lot of fertile land is not wasteland?" ”

"Yes, as long as there is land, even if it is wasteland." The soldiers hurriedly agreed.

Suddenly, the soldier turned over and knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Yang He and the others: "Lord Qian, my lords, if you have a field, the livelihood of the villain's family will be lost, and the villain will have nothing to repay, and he will definitely die for you in the future." ”

The rest of the soldiers also knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "I am willing to die for your lordship." ”

Zhang Mingxian said with a straight face: "It's not for us to die, it's for Yang Qian." ”

The soldier at the head hurriedly said: "Yes, it is to die for Lord Qianzong!" ”

The soldier kowtowed a few times, and suddenly got up and shouted at the soldiers who were eating around him: "Brothers, Master Qian is going to buy us a field, kowtow to Master Qian!" ”

Yang He and other generals ate with the soldiers, and the surrounding soldiers naturally paid attention to what Yang He and the others asked, and suddenly saw those soldiers kneeling and kowtowing, and couldn't help but feel a little strange, I don't know what Yang He and others made to these soldiers, and let these people be willing to die.

Immediately heard the soldier shouting that Mr. Qian wanted to buy a field for everyone, and the soldiers were stunned at first, and then they were ecstatic, and they knelt on the ground with a brush, kowtowing while shouting: "I am willing to die for Mr. Qian." ”

Shouting here, the soldiers in the distance did not know the details, hurriedly came to inquire, and then quickly passed the news back, and then the news quickly spread throughout the camp.

Immediately, there was a cheer in the camp, and then a group of soldiers ran over, knelt down to Yang He and the others in unison, and shouted: "I am willing to die for Lord Qianzong!" ”

Yang He couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw it.

Shaking his head, Yang He raised his voice and said: "Brothers, get up, I don't know if this land can be bought for the time being, and when you buy it, you can show your loyalty, and go back to eat." ”

The soldiers couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

When the soldiers dispersed, Yang He smiled bitterly: "It seems that this land must be bought, and I don't know if I can buy it?" ”

Zhang Mingxian smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, no one buys such wasteland at all, let's buy it, the people in the yamen don't know how to be happy." ”

Heiyunhe also smiled: "Yes, as long as we are willing to buy it, the local government will definitely sell it to us, you just have to rest assured." ”

Yang He nodded slightly.

Black Cloud Crane looked at the soldiers and smiled: "If this land is bought, you will have a hard life in the future, not only to open up the wasteland, but also to train." But don't miss training because of wasteland. ”

Several soldiers hurriedly said: "We are not afraid of fighting with Jianyu, but we are still afraid of hard work?" Sam Rong rest assured that the brothers will never miss the training. ”

"Good! I'm relieved to have this sentence. Black Cloud Crane laughed.

"Okay, let's eat, we're here, your food can't be eaten well, my bowl of rice has gone down, you have only eaten a few bites, and the rice must be cold at this time." I won't eat with you anymore, lest you scold me and disturb your meal. Yang He smiled.

Several soldiers couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, only to feel that Yang He was approachable and sympathetic to the soldiers.

Waving his hand at the soldiers, Yang He turned to Sun Defu and said, "To buy so much land, the silver we brought back may not be enough, and you can bring out 10,000 taels of silver in a while." ”

Sun Defu nodded: "I'll go and pick up the silver immediately." ”

"Where do you keep your money?" Zhang Ming asked first.

Sun Defu pointed forward: "In the innermost." ”

Zhang Ming first secretly squeezed his eyes at Heiyunhe, Heiyunhe was stunned at first, then understood, and asked at the moment: "Did you send someone to guard it?" ”

Sun Defu nodded: "I arranged for the brothers of the guard battalion to take turns on duty, except for the people of our guard camp, no one is allowed to approach the camp tent inside." ”

Black Cloud Crane waved his hand: "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”

Sun Defu hurriedly said: "Follow me." ”

Talking about the current guidance.

At the innermost part of the camp near the foot of the hill there were four tents, which were far from the others and were guarded by a group of soldiers.

Seeing Yang He, Hei Yunhe and others coming, a group of soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Sun Defu pointed at Yang He and said to everyone: "Brother Yang is already the president of our personal guard battalion, and he will be called Mr. Qian in the future." ”

When the soldiers heard this, they hurriedly said, "See Master Qian." ”

Yang He waved his hand and smiled: "Why are your brothers so polite? What you used to call me, how you will call me in the future, you can call me brother. ”

"Then how to do it, there must be a rule for everything." Sun Defu said.

Yang He shook his head and smiled: "It's just you." ”

Sun Defu said: "Lord Qian, these of us are all your family members, how can we call you brothers?" When people hear it, they think that we people don't even understand the rules. ”

"Yes, you can call whatever you like...... Yang He smiled, turned his head to Li Wei and said, "Li Wei, don't learn from Brother Sun, you have to call me Big Brother in the future." ”

Li Wei smiled and nodded.

At this moment, a child's cry suddenly came from the front, Yang He was stunned when he heard it, and walked forward quickly following the sound.

Passing through the tent, I saw several women in front of me lighting a fire, and beside the women stood several young children with branches in their hands, one of whom was crying, and the other woman was holding the hand of the weeping young child and sucking.

Seeing a woman in front of him, Yang He hurriedly stopped, turned his head to look at the soldiers, and said, "How can you let them make a fire here?" What happens once the fire spreads? ”

When a soldier heard this, he hurriedly said, "The surrounding area has been cleaned up, and the fire will not spread." ”

Yang He then asked, "What are they doing here to light the fire?" ”

"It's not fire, it's charcoal." The soldier said.

"What are you burning charcoal for?" Yang Heqi said.

"For the brothers." The soldier said.

When he heard that it was used for heating, Yang He suddenly remembered the brazier placed in the camp tent, and the brazier was not charcoal?

When the women heard someone speak, they couldn't help but be a little flustered, they wanted to dodge, but they didn't dare, they suddenly raised their eyes and saw Yang He, several women were stunned for a moment, and then they were overjoyed, and hurriedly ran over and knelt on the ground: "Engong is back?" The slave family visited Engong and thanked Engong for saving his life. ”

He pushed the child to the ground again: "Quick! Quickly kowtow to Eun Gong! ”

Yang He saw it and said suspiciously: "You are ......"

"Engong, the slave family and the child were all saved by Engong in Guangning City, and Engong forgot?" A woman busied.

Yang He was stunned when he heard this, and then asked, "Didn't I ask Li Wei to arrange for you to do things in the Liu family?" How do you burn charcoal here? ”
