Chapter 384: Canal Three Davids

In essence, Chang Cheng was nothing more than the prototype of the Ming Dynasty's version of a commercial capitalist. This kind of prototype is not so mature, mixed with a lot of messy things, but it is already precious. Chen Xie could open his mouth to ask for more profits, but he didn't do that, why? More silver to burn your hands? Of course not, Chen Xie's purpose is very simple, to cultivate this grassroots.

Merchants have money, but no social status, if Chen Xie sends a signal that Governor Chen likes merchants, what kind of influence will this be? It's not nice to say, even if Chen Xie wants to be the king in Shandong, it is not something that cannot be done.

The 100,000 taels of silver deducted from Chang Cheng were directly remitted to the Dafa Qianzhuang branch of Jingshi as the first installment of Shandong's arrears. Give the emperor a little sweetness, lest he be poor all day long and almost need to eat, staring at Shandong.

A carriage entered the big courtyard through the back door, and Chang Cheng persuaded and educated the two little Lori: "Serve well, the rise and fall of the Chang family depends on you." In the past, many people gave women to Master Chen, but they were all rejected by Master Chen. This is the first time for you, you must firmly seize this opportunity, get the favor of the master, and ...... for the century-old foundation of the Chang family. ”

The girl of this era is really miserable, and the future is not in her control. At a young age, they had to be sent out by their families and handed over to a certain poultry and beast surnamed Chen, it seemed that Master Chen didn't look down on them and refused to harm them, but it was their fault. Two thirteen-year-old little Lori, one is called Chang Zhi and the other is Chang Lan, and the origin of their names was taken by their father when he was a talent in high school. When choosing a name. Shaking his head triumphantly: "Anzhi Tinglan." As a result, this dad struggled for ten years, but he didn't win. Then he couldn't afford to get sick, and his family fell into the middle of the road. Chang Cheng, a capitalist with no conscience, appeared as a savior, under the banner of taking care of his family, giving money and food, and seeking medical advice. In the end, Tu Poor Dagger saw it and said to the father of these two sisters that the world is too chaotic now, and there are rogues everywhere. Gotta find a good home for the sisters. It is also for the Chang family to find a good support for the future.

If it was for someone else's family, the father who was a showman would naturally not agree. However, I heard that it was for Chen Xie, a big feudal town, and the sisters' father was unexpectedly surprised, and his illness improved a lot. Repeated entrustment is always successful. It must be facilitated.

Every reader has a wish in his heart. Become an official by fame. Since there is no way to take the imperial examination, let's find other ways. So this opportunity is very important and must be seized. If it weren't for the sickness. Their dad is going to come along.

The two little girls were quite pitiful, and when they arrived in Jinan, they were entrusted by Chang Cheng to train Ying Niang for a period of time. Then I dare to send it to Chen Xie, otherwise I won't understand anything, and the old man who will be upset when I turn around will be unhappy, and good things will become bad things. The Chang family was unlucky.

In order to tie up Ying Niang, Chang Cheng took out the dividends of the Shanxi branch of Yicheng dry shares, which was really shameless.

When the study was smoky, there was a high probability that a group of military generals were gathered, and there were both Chinese and foreign. Except for Wang Qinian and Chang Shiren, who were sitting in Fenghe Lushun, they did not arrive, and all the other weighty ones arrived. Among them, the first batch of family members are now mixed instructors. The characteristic of these people is that they are not good at culture, and under Chen Xie's command, they suffer a lot if they have no education level. This is also the reason why Su Haochen, Chang Shiren, Li Yuncong, Lin Ya, Weng Zhengqing, and Wang Ben climbed faster, that is, they read more.

"Zhongcheng, the newly formed recruits, a total of one hundred reinforced teams, close to 30,000 people. It was enough to replace the Caoyun guards along the canal, but the problem was that the literacy rate of these recruits was too low. Jinan is not as good as Dengzhou, and people who have read books and recognize some words are unwilling to be soldiers. Wang Ben was quite distressed when he spoke, and the illiterate learned everything slowly. This batch of recruits really made him nerve-wracking, and to put it in his heart, he would rather go to Jiannu than bring new recruits. It's so painful!

"Isn't there a night school literacy class in boot camp? Isn't it effective? Chen Xie was also very depressed in his heart, there is no shortage of population in the Ming Dynasty, and building a modern army is not just a matter that can solve the problem with a large population. If you are a literate soldier, it is generally about the same for three months of training. For illiterate soldiers, training for three months is actually not too much of a problem, but it is too difficult to train a group of capable grassroots officers from them. Taizu's way of learning war in war and training the team in war is actually quite practical in the realm of Daming. The question is, with whom?

"The effect is very average, and the B-word camp also has the problem of zài. At present, the officers of all units are supported by graduates from the Jiading Academy. These illiterate soldiers, it is not a problem to let them endure hardship, let them be literate, it is really fatal. Su Haochen also took over helplessly on the side, he seemed to be worried about this matter.

Chen Xie pondered for a while and said: "This problem must be improved, and in the future, every combat unit at the team level must be equipped with two cultural instructors. The matter of literacy is still consciously voluntary. If you learn well, you should be encouraged and given material rewards. Don't underestimate this, whether a soldier is educated or not, there is still a big difference. The matter of running literacy classes in the army should be grasped as an important project for the whole army in the future. In order to form an atmosphere of loving the culture of learning among the troops, we do not require soldiers to be able to learn to be talented, to be able to read the written language roughly, and to write reluctantly. Chen Xie started with the Dengzhou battalion, and everyone should see that once the army forms this atmosphere, it will not affect one or two people in the future, but one generation. After these soldiers are discharged, they will definitely have an impact on their children. ”

Wanyu was brushing the records on the side, and among a group of old men, she didn't care about second-hand smoke. Chen Xie had this idea, and after speaking for a while, he snuffed out the cigarette and said lightly: "Extinguish the cigarette, in the future, in public, when there is a person of the opposite sex, you are not allowed to smoke." This article is written into the military rules. In fact, the introduction of this article is nothing but nothing. How can these old men have the opportunity to encounter women in public, only here is Chen Xie, this one is used.

Su Haochen saw Chen Xie's eyes, and immediately said: "To rectify the various guards of Caoyun, we must naturally start under the rule of Shandong." There are two of the three Davids of the canal in Shandong and one in Nanzhili. Considering the problem of overlapping jurisdiction, don't stimulate Zhang Zhongcheng, we only have to rectify Pingshanwei and Ren Chengwei. Shandong was commanded by the envoy, and Zhongcheng learned that it would be called. Ren Chengwei is in Yanzhou Mansion, so he can only go to Zhongcheng in person, and others are afraid that they will not be able to control the field. Going to Dongchang Mansion with a humble position, under the banner of Zhongcheng, he can also scare people. There is also a big river guard in Huai'an Mansion, so I can only ignore it for the time being. ”

Chen Xie nodded and said lightly: "Benxian has been in office for more than half a year, and he has been immersed in military training, and he has not taken care of local affairs, nor does he plan to take care of them. Just let them fend for themselves, and if something goes wrong, there is just an excuse to clean them up. The importance of Caoyun will not be repeated here, Benxian personally led 10,000 recruits to Yanzhou in person, which was regarded as a field training for recruits. Su Haochen, you take 10,000 recruits to Dongchang Mansion, you understand what to do. Those who are interested, give a way out, and those who are not interested, let the bayonet speak. Dengzhou camp is based on this rule, and there are not so many spittle stars to waste. It will take another time now, and when we go back, we will be ready and wait for orders. ”

The military meeting was over, and it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. Chen Xie returned to the backyard residence, there are only two women with status, one Gu Xi and one Ying Niang. These two women have their own careers, and they are busy outside during the day and come back after dark. This will, I'm afraid that they are all busy with their own affairs, so Chen Xie won't bother.

Walk to the courtyard on the east side of the large courtyard in the center, this place should be the place where the lady of the main house is entrenched, isn't there no wife? At the gate of the courtyard, Ying Niang stepped forward to greet her: "Master, the two nies of the Chang family are waiting for you in a courtyard behind." Do you want to check it out? ”

Chen Xie hummed and said, "What do you think?" Ying Niang smiled: "It doesn't matter how the slave family thinks, you have to see it." ”

Chen Xie shook his head: "Even if they look like saltless mothers-in-law, you have to keep them." I've got to make a show and show some people. You go and bring it and see. "Chen Xie now has two nests, one is Zhangjiazhuang's nest, and the boundary is the territory of Yuzhu and Yujing, and Ying Niang is not good at reaching out. Here in Jinan, Ying Niang is naturally not polite, she is arranging the whole thing. She has told Chen Xie about all these things she has done, and she will only do it if she has tacit consent.

When a woman gets older, she will be suspicious, and she will worry about her own status. Chen Xie is more tolerant of her mother, her role is not small, not only the intelligence department is in hand, but also Yuanzhong, and now Jinyiwei is a thousand households in Nanjing.

Two little girls sat side by side on the bed, leaning on each other's shoulders and dozing off. It's not very old, this will be the time to grow the body, and it's normal to be a little sleepy. When Ying Niang came in, the two opened their eyes together, saw the appearance of the person who came clearly, and immediately stood and bowed their heads and spoke: "Slave Chang Zhi (Chang Lan), I have seen Aunt Yuan." ”

Chen Xie sat in the chair with a golden knife, squinting his eyes and thinking about it, the things in the backyard were so complicated, Chen Xie didn't want to think about it. Ying Niang can manage it, Chen Xie still can't wait for it. What kind of freedom, liberation and other things, there seems to be no market in the Ming Dynasty. Holding a copy of "Historical Records" in his hand and pretending to be a cultural person, in fact, Chen Xie did read it again. The greatest pleasure of reading history books is to look at human nature. The things recorded in history are things of the past, but they are also things of the present and things of the future. It is just a constant repetition, and in the final analysis, it is human nature and interests that play the leading role in history. If you don't understand this, no matter how familiar you are with history, you will read it in vain.

Ying Niang led two girls who were only about one meter five to come in, Chen Xie raised his eyes and saw that he was dressed in a more standard Ming Dynasty, with a skirt on his body and a bun. followed Ying Niang and stepped forward to say goodbye: "The slave family has seen the master." ”

"Raise your head!" Chen Xie has now completely entered the role, and there is no psychological pressure at all when he says this kind of thing. (To be continued......)
