Chapter 12: Wealth and Beauty

Hong Chen said with a smile: "Because of this, it is more necessary to set up a province and vigorously develop!" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you know that the south of the south, central and south, not far south, is the Little Western Ocean."

"As long as my Great Yan soldiers go south along a few great rivers and conquer those tribes that are more barbaric and backward than the tribes in the south and central, I can occupy a fertile plain area with three or even four crops a year, which is larger than my existing territory of Great Yan."

"Dayan also wants to build a port city on the coast of the Little Western Ocean, trade with the surrounding countries, and earn dozens or hundreds of times the profits!"

"At that time, gold, silver, money, food, rare treasures, and foreign beauties will continue to pour into my great flame!"

Wealth and beauty are the eternal pursuit of men, not to mention everyone present!

But everyone in Dayan remained reserved, and only the five of Hong Ming were deeply attracted by the scene described by Hong Chen and couldn't extricate themselves!

They have lived in the north for a long time, and they have fought with the Xiongnu, Dangxiang, Xianbei, Wuhuan, Goguryeo, Buyeo and other northern aliens in the past, but they all know that these aliens are poorer than the other, otherwise they would not all be worried about coming to the south to rob the Liang State.

Now Hong Chen pointed out that the south south of the south is rich and fertile, with many wealth and beauties, as generals of a hundred battles, how can they not want to conquer?

It's just that Gao Ming has promised to open up Yinping County and assist in Tuntian, so it's not good for him to take the lead first.

Hong Hui thanked Hong Chen for his great kindness to him, and wanted to make meritorious service in Dayan as soon as possible, so he immediately clasped his fists and bowed: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead a thousand Yunlong elite soldiers to take the south of Nanzhong for the emperor!" ”

Hong Meng hurriedly echoed: "Your Majesty! I am willing to go together! ”

Hong Yan and Hong Yin also expressed their willingness to accompany the southern expedition.

Hong Chen was very pleased: "Four Aiqing, don't worry! ”

"You and Hong Ming Aiqing, now you have to select more than 10,000 recruits from the existing soldiers and original families in the national capital, as well as the men who volunteer to participate in the Yunlong elite soldiers, train diligently, and strive to train strong soldiers who can be used by the end of the year, and then consider the southern expedition."

"However, after I ascend the throne, Gao Ming Aiqing will take two or three thousand Yunlong elite soldiers to Yinping County to pacify the party and the people, and bring the entire territory of Yinping County under the complete control of my Dayan."

"In addition, there are many miasmaes, poisonous springs, mosquitoes, etc., which are very easy to breed plagues, so I must prepare a large number of medicines, food, and necessary equipment for marching and combat, so that you can adapt to it for a period of time before you can march south when the weather is cool."

Hong Yin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Hong Ming will go to Yinping County, then the four of us will each take two or three thousand Yunlong elite soldiers to the counties in the south-central and southern regions, and train the troops while pacifying the tribes in the south, killing two birds with one stone, will the emperor see it?" ”

Hong Chen nodded: "Hmm!" Absolutely! ”

"The four Aiqing will go to the counties and counties of Southwest Province to appease the local tribes, and those who go along with the Great Yan will prosper, and those who go against the Great Yan will die."

"If there are men who are suitable for the conditions of Yunlong's elite soldiers, I will allow you to recruit and expand on the spot, and build a southern expedition stronghold in Tuntian, which can be used as an immigrant settlement in the future, the more the merrier."

"If the conditions are average, they will be handed over to the local government for resettlement."

Hong Yin and the four of them were extremely excited, and they all thanked the emperor for his grace.

Hong Chen said again: "When the time comes, veterans and disabled generals who have not yet served in the military will stay, and at the very least, they will be the seventh rank captain, and they will be dispersed to the Great Yan Army and the provincial, county and county soldiers to train new soldiers, especially equestrian. ”

After Gao Ming's five people agreed, Hong Chen announced that Jiang Tai would be appointed as the governor of the military academy.

Luo Hui is the governor of the eastern capital, Huo Wu is the governor of the southern capital, and Peng Zhong is the governor of the western capital, all of which are from the same product.

Guan Ning, Peng Yi, and Li Dang, the former commander of the Imperial Forest Army who opposed the surrender, were the commanders of Zheng Erpin, and there were still seven vacancies for the commanders, and after Jiang Tai, Luo Hui, Huo Wu, and Peng Zhong led the important generals under their command to return, they would be elected by the four.

There are fifty people under the command of the second rank, and Hong Chen only announced five Hong Ming, Bai Wei and Peng Li, and the vacant personnel are still elected by Jiang Tai.

Admiral Zhengsanpin has 100 people, and five people, Jin Feng, Ye Fan, Lin Tai, Wang An, and Zhao Kai, were selected.

From the governor of Sanpin Province to 200 people, more than 50 disciples of the Prince's Mansion were selected.

The jurisdiction of Zhengsi Pinti was set to 400 people, and more than 100 guests from the Prince's Mansion were selected among them.

From Sipin County, the number of people was set to 600, and the remaining guests of the Prince's Mansion were selected among them.

The total number of soldiers in the five grades was set at 1,000 people, and all the up-and-coming original family members of the Prince's Mansion were selected among them.

As for the staff of the Prince's Mansion, the lowest will be the deputy chamberlain of the Sanpin Division, but this matter must be selected by the secretary of the ministry, and the prime minister or the deputy minister in charge of the ministry will personally appoint.

In this reward, the Peng family benefited the most, but no one was convinced.

Hong Chen called Peng Yu, Qin Yun, Guan Ning, and Li Kang to the imperial study, talked about the salaries and benefits of civil and military officials, rewards and punishments, and talked about the list of officials who could be selected from the major families and local families.

After the four of them left to discuss with the people in the Qinzheng Palace, Hong Chen summoned Wei Zeng and Jiang Xing and began to dictate, and the two of them took turns to write that he was going to cooperate with the major families, or various workshops run by the government, how to select the site for construction, and all kinds of new items to be developed and produced.

At the end of the afternoon (1 to 3 o'clock in the afternoon), after a hurried lunch, Hong Chen called Guan Ning, Li Kang, Bai Wei, Peng Li, and Hong Ming to discuss various military affairs innovations in the Military Academy, and Peng Li and Hong Ming wrote new military orders, military discipline, and other rules and regulations.

The time (five to seven o'clock) has passed, the sky is getting dark, Hong Chen called the people of Guanning, came to the Hall of Light, and called Peng Lan'er, and ate the imperial meal with everyone attending today.

After the dinner, Hong Chen only left Wei Zeng and Jiang Xing to assist, and began to discuss the matter of the joint venture workshop with the masters.

Hongchen provided a site for the construction of factories in and around the city, and provided various technologies to ensure the circulation of products.

The owners provided funds to recruit workers and were responsible for the management of the workshops.

Hong Chen wants sixty percent of the pure profit of the factory, and each master can only get forty percent, it seems that the emperor has taken a big advantage.

Including Peng Yu, Xu Ping, Xiao Jue, who was elected as the secretary of the Ministry of Posts, Shi Chong, who was elected as the secretary of the ministry, and so on, more than 30 masters expressed their satisfaction, as long as they followed the emperor to cooperate in business, it would definitely be a sure profit.

But the key point is that Hong Chen only provided matches, glass, clocks, looms, oil presses, papermaking, down, fast food, herbal tea, fruit vinegar, pot helmets, baked naan, ink pens and chalk, soap and soap, washboards, washing brushes, toothpaste and toothbrushes, wine, tables and chairs, carriages, abacus, barber knives and scissors, and other 100 kinds of technological inventions.

In their opinion, as long as they promote and use each other, they can make a lot of money!

At this time, Hongchen asked Peng Yu to provide the loss of assets of each family, the Xu family with the most losses will receive six inventions, and the maiden family of the original concubine Song Huan, who has the least losses, will also receive two.

Then let each family draw lots in the wooden box, and Song Lian, the head of the Song family and the deputy secretary of the Ministry of Rites, took the lead in drawing two bamboo sticks.

"Congratulations to the head of the Song Lian family, for obtaining two inventions: glass and toothpaste and toothbrush!"

After Jiang Xing finished speaking with a smile, Song Lian instantly had a bitter face.
