In a front-line command post temporarily selected by the Tianhu Army in Guanning City, tables have been set up, but the military discipline is strict and there is no meat and no wine.

The logistics soldiers of the brigade headquarters worked together with the cooking squad to make new tricks for all kinds of dishes, and not only that, but also specially took out canned fruits that were specially supplied by the Tianhu Army.

Tables are top-down, of course.

As a military director in the absolute sense, Bi Zisu's position is still the highest.

Secondly, there are more Liaodong generals who were originally stationed here, but the status of the generals of the Tianhu Army who shined in the battle is relatively low.

After all kinds of dishes were ready, Meng Tu accompanied Bi Zisu to enter first, and the soldiers of the Tianhu Army on the side guided him.

And Bi Zisu's consistent style of acting was not restrained, and when he saw that the seat prepared for him by the Heavenly Tiger Army was the highest seat, his expression changed in an instant.

Turning back, he found that the seats of the Liaodong generals who were accompanying him were all either forward or upward.

So, Bi Zisu turned around and said.

"It's enough for the guests to feast on us, the hosts, how can you let the guests sit below, and the generals of the Guanning Army and the generals of the Heavenly Tiger Army will change positions."

Originally, because the Guan Ning generals were too high, they were already sitting on pins and needles, but the Tianhu Army was very gracious, and said vigorously, "It's been arranged a long time ago, it's been arranged a long time ago..."

Hearing this, they stood up in an instant.

Look back at the generals of the Heavenly Tiger Army.

Get up and try to change positions.

Meng To's arrangement was originally to elevate the position of the original Liaodong generals and show respect, after all, the current rank system of the Tianhu Army and the traditional Ming military attache system are not parallel.

Whether in terms of the number of troops led or the qualifications, the current generals of Guanning are higher than the soldiers of the Tianhu Army, so there is this arrangement.

"Don't listen to Lord Bi, all Guan Ning soldiers have also worked hard, sit down! Sit down! Orderlies, hurry up and arrange for the generals to take their seats! Whatever you change, it's all the same! ”

Seeing this, Bi Zisu had no choice but to sigh slightly.

"The gap between people and people."

Thinking back to when he went to Ningyuan City, how could the generals under Yuan Chonghuan have such a demeanor, all of them are masters of seniority.

Whoever sits in a higher seat than anyone can make a fuss on the spot.

Seeing that everyone was seated, Mont Tuo spoke first.

"Generals, my Heavenly Tiger Army was ordered to come to the aid of Guanning City and achieve some results, but all of this is inseparable from the full cooperation of Lord Bi and the generals of Guanning, so today we hereby set up a banquet to replace wine with tea, please don't dislike it."

Such an occasion actually appeared countless times when he was in Beijing.

After all, as Zhu Youzhen's heart, the Tianhu Army is a baby bump, and if something happens, Zhu Youzhen smeared oil from the soles of his feet in the palace, and accompanied by Wang Chengen, he went to the Beijing camp where the Tianhu Army was located to inspect.

After this inspection, they dined on the spot at the Tianhu Army station and ate with you.

It is not only a delicacy, but also a first-class delicacy.

After all, this is the best time to talk about something that has not been discussed, or something that is not too important but has to be said.

As a result, such a table culture has completely entered the Tianhu Army.

It's just that the military discipline is strict, and unlike the people, the Tianhu Army strictly prohibits drinking at all times, and the promulgation of the prohibition originally caused a lot of waves in the army.

But the strong military discipline and continuous training made all the officers and soldiers of the Heavenly Tiger Army have no complaints.

As soon as Meng Tuo finished speaking, the generals of Guan Ning waved their hands one after another.

"What more wine do you need for such a delicacy here?"

"The military discipline is strict, and the Heavenly Tiger Army deserves to be His Majesty's pro-army."

"Yes, yes, right now, the Tartar is still outside the city and has not left, and the business is important... It's important to get down to business..."

Seeing that the scene was almost warmed up, Meng Tuo didn't be polite anymore, and asked Bi Zisu for instructions, and after getting permission, he started the meal.

Most of the soldiers in the early Ming Dynasty were from reckless backgrounds, but the current situation is different, and the reckless way has not worked for a long time.

The imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty is not only the imperial examination that can be a civil official, but also has the traditional situation of martial arts, and the best of them will also be included in the Beijing division to familiarize themselves with military books, refine martial arts, and finally achieve martial arts champions.

……

Quanzhou, Fujian.

Since ancient times, it is the hub of foreign businessmen gathering and overseas trade routes, of course, since ancient times, since the Ming Dynasty, whether it is the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, the attitude towards foreign businessmen is very supportive, and from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty Hongwu period of the increasingly strict sea ban policy, Quanzhou Mansion has changed the prosperity of the past, and gradually declined.

But despite the decline, the most traditional trade conditions are still retained here, and although the sea ban is strict, it is not half-hearted.

The Quanzhou government still retains the basic right to trade with the Ryukyus, and it is precisely because of this last hope that foreign merchants are still willing to travel thousands of miles to the East and then go to the Ryukyus for a turn, after all, the current maritime trade can be described as a huge profit.

The Ming Dynasty's extreme thirst for gold and silver wealth was on foreign merchants, especially the Dutch East India Company's current desire for trade exchanges with the Ming Dynasty.

Let Quanzhou continue to maintain its role as a transit station and hub, although the scale has been reduced, but it will not collapse and disappear.

Inside the government.

The antique Quanzhou Mansion, the interior is not as old as the outside, it can be said to be full of all kinds of local characteristics at the moment, not to mention the pavilion and Yuyu, it is also exquisite and elegant, and the high hall in the middle of the case is also hung with a plaque of righteousness and brightness, but because there has been no case to the government for a long time, and most of them have been sent back to the state and county by the prefect to solve it by themselves, so it has fallen a lot of dust.

But the complicated craftsmanship of gilt and silver and the faint calligraphy skills all tell the wealth of Quanzhou Mansion.

"Lord Liu, is this new imperial examination really going to be held on time? But this imperial examination... In my opinion, there is no place to make money..."

The dialogue in the Quanzhou Mansion was a dialogue between Zheng Cang, the then governor of Quanzhou, and his staff.

"Money? Now this new imperial examination is clearly going to replace the old system, and I can't understand the subjects of this examination, and I still make money? The commanders above don't dare to collect cash, so dare we still fish? ”

"Then even if you don't make money, you shouldn't build it inside, I see that many places here and outside have to pay for us, and this east factory does not allow local rich businessmen to sponsor it."

"Just as... Serve the people, since His Majesty ascended the throne, although the old things of the previous dynasty are rarely talked about, but since the current policies, you see which one dares not listen. ”

"Alas... That's all there is to it... At night.. Juxian Building.. Master Wu set up a few more tables there.."

"It's easy to say..."
