"How is the Hou Mansion?" Liu Tian frowned.

"The Hou Mansion doesn't intend to care about our life or death at all, even if the army has become like this now, the Hou Mansion has not allocated any funds at all." The general said and sneered again.

"You mean to say that now the Hou Mansion has learned about the breakdown of the army's funds, but has not made any response at all?" Liu Qian felt that this was really a very strange thing.

According to Lin Feng's temperament, if he knew that the Hou Mansion-like army had reached such a level, he would definitely not sit idly by.

So the only possibility was that Lin Feng didn't know the current state of the army at all.

"Tell me about the current situation of the army." Liu Tian said, and felt a little insufficient: "All the problems, whether it is food or clothing, as long as it is related to money, tell me." ”

However, the general felt a little strange: "I told you, can this matter be solved?" ”

Liu Tian nodded very solemnly: "Yes, after telling me, this matter will definitely be solved, you believe me, Lin Feng must not know the current situation of the army and will let you be here." ”

Lin Feng...... The general didn't know what kind of person Lin Feng was, but he heard outside that this Lin Feng son was the successor of the Hou Mansion, and as soon as he came up, he directly made the Hou Mansion a little chaotic.

Although it was chaotic, he also heard about it, what was the second room for accepting bribes and was arrested, and the third room emptied the money of the Hou Mansion and wanted more dowry and so on.

Thinking about it from his point of view, he felt that Lin Feng was understandable at all for doing this.

Although Lin Feng seemed to be very young compared to Lin Lang, the general felt that Lin Feng had rectified very well this time, so he waited for when Lin Feng could give the army some help.

But after waiting for such a long time, Lin Feng himself had never been to the army, and there was no reply to the documents he asked people to hand over.

Every time I went to the Hou Mansion to find Lin Feng, I was either stopped by the porter, or I was taken to the side hall by the people in the second or third room to listen to gossip for more than half an hour.

If money is mentioned, the people in the second or third room will definitely say that the Hou Mansion has no money, or they will push everything on Lin Feng.

So now he is desperate to hate Lin Feng.

However, Liu Tian said that Lin Feng didn't know about this at all.

Yes, he hadn't seen Lin Feng once, how could he possibly know.

After a while, the general thought about it completely, and then said: "Okay, I'll believe you once, if you don't have a letter this time, don't blame me for taking these soldiers who are not well fed and clothed to the door of the Hou Mansion!" ”

"Three days, three days at most, I will definitely give you an accurate answer." Liu Tian said firmly.

She followed the general around for a walk.

The general's surname is Han, so most people in the army call him Lao Han.

Old Han told Liu Tian all the problems in the army.

Because this army is an independent army of the Hou Mansion, the imperial court will not manage it, and these veterans who follow the Hou Mansion have been following the Hou Ye since they were young.

At that time, Hou Ye also promised these veterans that when they got old, they would not be left without support, and would let them retire in the army.

But over the years, the money in the army has not been paid, and the number of old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers has increased a lot.

After Liu Tian knew about these situations, he also felt very sad.

These soldiers are all here for the reputation of the Lin family, and the old marquis also gave them such a promise, but until now, the people who let them live such a hard life without support are also the Hou Mansion.

After Liu Tian understood the situation here, she returned to the Hou Mansion.

"What's wrong?" Lin Feng looked at her coming back with a look of disappointment.

Liu Tian asked his subordinates to go down first, and then said to Lin Feng: "Do you know about the affairs of the army?" ”

Lin Feng knew that there was an army in this Hou Mansion: "I know that the Hou Mansion has raised an army, but over the years, the affairs of the army have never been something I can interfere in, and even the money allocated to the army has not come out of my side." ”

"But now that you are the head of this Hou Mansion, it is better for you to pay attention to the affairs of the army." Liu Tian told Lin Feng everything he had seen and heard in the army.

Lin Feng was stunned: "Could it be like this?" But isn't there a sum of money allocated to the army in the Hou Mansion's account? This money has never been broken. ”

There is indeed a large amount of money allocated to the army on the books of the Hou Mansion, and it has never been broken, and he has asked the bookkeeper that this amount of money has been set from the past and will be given out every month, which is why the Hou Mansion has such a serious deficit.

But if such a sum of money had been in the army, how could it still be what it is now?

Liu Tian and Lin Feng both felt a little strange.

"Could it be that someone intercepted this money?" Liu Tian frowned, and now there was only one way to explain it.

"Who could have intercepted this money?" Lin Feng thought about it and felt that it was wrong.

Every time an allocation is made to the army, the date is set, and just a few days ago, the army was allocated money.

The silver was given directly from the treasury, and there was no intermediate process at all, so who was the person who withheld the silver?

This matter needs to be investigated, but now the army can't afford to wait.

Lin Feng thought that now he must first take out another sum of silver and send it to the army, improve their food, and improve their daily life.

Liu Tian accompanied Lin Feng to the account room.

"Such a large sum of silver?" The bookkeeper was also stunned.

This monthly amount of money for the army is not a small amount, he just gave it out two days ago, and now he wants it again, how can he take it out at once.

"Childe, you are clear about the situation in the Hou Mansion now, such a sum of money is really not a small amount, this has just transferred the profits from other shops to use, if you transfer another amount of silver out, it will be difficult for the Hou Mansion to maintain at that time."

"Can't you just think of a way?" Lin Feng was also in a hurry, now he was clear about the situation in the Hou Mansion, but the army couldn't wait any longer.

After listening to Liu Tian talk about the situation of the army, Lin Feng was really worried.

First, I am worried that the living conditions of the people in the army are so bad that I don't know how long I can survive.

Second, they felt that if they treated their soldiers like this, if they were extremely hungry and frozen, they would definitely rebel at that time.

In order to prevent the soldiers in his army from rebelling, Lin Feng wanted to send this sum of money over no matter what.

"There's nothing you can do, you know the situation of the Hou Mansion, it's not a small amount, and now the shops outside can't be sold, otherwise it's a sum of money that can only be saved by selling two shops." Mr. Bookkeeper has no choice, the current Hou Mansion is an empty shell, even if he wants to help the army, he doesn't have the ability to do it at all. ，

Liu listened to the words of the bookkeeper, and then a thought: "There is no such silver in the Hou Mansion, but I have it in my hand." ”

Lin Feng was stunned, did he want to borrow money from Liu? No, it can't be like this, how can he ask Liu to borrow money?

Probably seeing Lin Feng's hesitation, Liu Qian stepped forward and wrote an IOU: "You signed this IOU, and when the time comes, you will pay me back, you don't have any burden in your heart, now the affairs of the army are the biggest thing, do you want to let so many people in the army starve to death and die of disease for the sake of your own face and the face of the Hou Mansion?" ”

Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, indeed, now the entire army is waiting for this life-saving silver.

If he abandoned these soldiers for the sake of his own face, if something happened to him at that time, he would have no place to regret it.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng stepped forward and wrote his name on the IOU.

Liu Tian immediately put the IOU in his cuff: "I'll go and help you get the silver now." ”

Her money was all in the bank, and she only had a few silver tickets on her.

After returning to his room and taking out the deposit ticket, Liu Tian immediately went to the money bank.

She didn't ask for cash, but just exchanged some silver tickets, after all, silver tickets are easier to carry.

didn't wait for the second day, he went back to the Hou Mansion directly, and then asked Lin Feng to send him to the barracks.

At this time, the sky was already a little dark, and Liu Tian was worried that Lin Feng would go alone, and those soldiers would be unfavorable to him because they were prejudiced against him, so he also followed.

As soon as he got out of the carriage, two soldiers came over: "It's already dark now, why are you back again?" ”

They didn't know what Liu Tilt was, and they didn't know what Willow was doing when he came back.

They only knew that Liu Tian had come once before, and that time he was let into the battalion commander by Lao Han, but it didn't take long for him to come out and go around again.

Originally, women were not allowed to enter the army, but now that this woman not only came once, but also came back, the soldier naturally wanted to ask.

"You go and talk to Lao Han, just say what I promised him, and now I will fulfill my promise, and this one is Lin Feng." After Liu Tian said this, the soldier froze in place.

It was another soldier beside him who elbowed him that he came to his senses and ran to the tent.

After a while, Lao Han greeted him: "Miss Liu, why are you ...... so fast?"

When he saw Lin Feng, Lao Han was also stunned: "Young Marquis." He raised his hand and saluted.

Lin Feng stepped forward and helped: "It was I who didn't manage the Hou Mansion well to let you suffer such grievances, let's go first." ”

Lao Han immediately ordered someone to let them in, and then personally brought Lin Feng to the camp tent.

"Have you eaten?" Lin Feng glanced at the somewhat dilapidated camp tent and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"It's the time to eat, and the room should be almost ready now." As Lao Han spoke, two soldiers walked in with two sweet potatoes and a bowl of water.

"That's what you eat on weekdays?" Lin Feng looked at the sweet potatoes and clear water on the table, and only felt that his heart was very congested.
