Chapter 584: Surrender (1)
Eat well, live well, and be physically strong and go to war
In order to let those who join the army fight with peace of mind, these soldiers are paid a lot of military salaries every month, and the military salaries of these hundreds of thousands of troops are a large amount of expenses when you think about it.
Those who were wounded and lost their lives because of the war needed a lot of money.
Moreover, Qiao Xiaowan also had to arrange a compromise for the aftermath of those retired soldiers, so that these soldiers who followed them to fight the generals had nothing to do after they were injured.
There is also the armor and ordnance she makes.......
Qiao Xiaowan now invests in the army every month, at least 300,000 taels of silver a month.
It costs money to raise an army!
It's too expensive!
But at the expense of money, you can't lose these soldiers who shed their blood.
Fortunately, Zhao Wenjing also has a money-making industry, although Qiao Xiaowan didn't ask, he also knew that Zhao Wenjing made a lot of money, and Qiao Xiaowan didn't know how much worse it was compared to himself.
Of course, Qiao Xiaowan has never asked what she will do with making money and managing men's money, and Qiao Xiaowan has always had an intuition that Zhao Wenjing's industry will be in her hands sooner or later.
She will take out what she should take, as for the remaining money, Qiao Xiaowan will keep it for other use, in the future, Zhao Wenjing will really sit in that position, when the military academy, welfare institute, publicly-funded school, Qiao Xiaowan will promote them one by one, and the expenses of the entire big week will be a lot of money at that time.
The money she is making now is far from enough.
Of course, now that the world is not stable, the store she opened is only in Jiangling Prefecture, if she goes to Chang'an by then, her store will be opened throughout the whole week, and she will make more money than now.
Support her to open a military school, and there is absolutely no problem with the office school.
......
The people of Jiangling Prefecture have been celebrating Zhao Wenjing's return recently.
And at this moment, in Qiao's mansion, Zhao Wenjing, Qiao Xiaowan, Han Chen, and Keke are sitting face to face.
From Zhao Wenjing's recovery to the north, Han Chen announced to the whole world as soon as possible, the true destiny of the Son of Heaven returned, and Han Chen was willing to be loyal to His Royal Highness the Prince, and the entire northern part of Subei was the land of the Zhao family.
As soon as this announcement came out, the world was in an uproar.
Even the courtiers in Chang'an City were stunned.
Some of the courtiers who were originally loyal to the regent were immediately panicked.
Before, Han Chen's attitude was ambiguous, neither rejecting Chang'an's overtures, nor clearly expressing his position on Zhao Wenjing's position, but now Han Chen is commensurate with his ministers, and Zhao Wenjing is already the crown prince he identifies as His Royal Highness and the future emperor.
In the entire Great Zhou, except for Chang'an's generation, other places are Zhao Wenjing's territory.
Even if they wanted to, they couldn't turn the tables around.
Chang'an suddenly panicked, and all the major families thought about it behind closed doors, or found a way to contact people related to Zhao Wenjing, and they had already been ready to surrender as soon as possible.
Of course, there were also courtiers who were loyal to His Royal Highness the Regent, but that was already a very small number.
.......
"Your Highness!" Han Chen and Keke knelt on the ground respectfully, their faces were respectful: "It is an honor for His Highness to take the time to meet Wechen. ”
After surrendering, you should put on the attitude of being a courtier, which is knowledge, self-knowledge, and the duty of a minister.
Zhao Wenjing's face was indifferent.
He hasn't forgotten Han Chen's kidnapping of his little night.
Han Chen knelt on the ground without raising his head.
It was Qiao Xiaowan who glanced at Zhao Wenjing, and Zhao Wenjing coughed lightly before saying, "Get up." ”
Han Chen got up just now, but he also stood aside with his head down, not daring to sit down.
Zhao Wenjing didn't let him do it, he was a minister, and they still had old grudges.
