Chapter 39: General Xing spent more than 100,000 taels

Hearing this, the corners of Yuan Liyang's mouth opened slightly, and the light in his eyes flickered slightly.

"Like...... It can indeed be ......"

The emperor didn't tell himself what he was doing, it was obviously something that wasn't very important.

Since it is an unimportant thing, it obviously occupies a seat in the warehouse, so it is better to let Xing Daorong and Chen Heishan help throw it away.

When the time comes, if Xia Yan asks, he will say that the two of them want these things, so he agrees.

Wonderful!

Thinking about this, Yuan Liyang no longer had a sad face, and began to drink with the two of them.

Day 2......

"Come on, come on, a total of 1,600 catties, these 800 catties will be sent to General Xing's school! These 800 catties will be sent to the school field led by Chen! ”

The conscription is divided into five routes, and each army has its own exclusive school field.

Among them, Zhuge Liang, Di Renjie, and Huo Quai's school field is in Guancheng, which is where the original Yu State is located, while Xing Daorong and Chen Heishan's are in Nanling.

In the school field, each commander will explain the mission to his soldiers.

In addition to this, the soldiers are trained to reach their highest morale before the start of the battle.

At this point, Zhuge Liang, Huo Quzhi and Di Renjie did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and they were with the soldiers every day, constantly formulating war strategies.

As for Xing Daorong and Chen Heishan, who have a school field in Nanling, they are too lazy to go to the school field.

The basic big and small matters can be conveyed by the adjutant general, and as for what kind of training stuff will not be discussed.

Neither of them has trained for a few days, and they also train the army, isn't that nonsense.

Life is short, it's better to drink!

And all of this is also in Xia Yan's hands.

Xi Kingdom and Candle Country are the two most important battlefields, so I still need to pay relative attention to the matters of these two battlefields.

Therefore, the two of them must stay in Nanling, and they must not get out of their control.

It's just that at the moment, it seems that everything is going on in perfect shape.

There seems to be nothing unusual in the school fields in the two places, and every day is the most normal drill training, but the two commanders have not appeared for a day.

After several inquiries, Xia Yan also learned that the two of them drank in Chen Heishan's courtyard every day.

The two of them were like they hadn't drunk in seven lifetimes, drinking from morning to night, and after sleeping all night, they continued to drink again the next day.

This can make Xia Yan greedy, the good guy himself can only drink one cup a day here, but you two can give me a drink from morning to night, what kind of fairy day is this?!

So Xia Yan also proposed more than once that he wanted to "communicate" with these two ministers.

However, this little bit of caution can be hidden from Grandpa Luo, and they are all rejected.

"Your Majesty, the dragon body is important, you see that you fainted in the main hall a few times ago."

I have to say that if it weren't for the system's regulations that you can't kill people, Xia Yan would have wanted to give this old eunuch to Ga a long time ago.

How long has it been since I arrived here, and I still only have one cup a day, and I am not allowed to add another drop.

Now seeing that his careful thinking has been exposed, Xia Yan no longer insists on it, but silently goes to the study.

The more times like this, the more you have to calm down, and the day when you go back is not far away.

After all, judging from the performance of these two Bodhisattvas in the Chen Mansion now, it should be stable for them to go back.

Drink all day and night, and the time you are awake is not a few hours, what can you do?

As the two most important battlefields, as long as the two of them don't come out of the moth, then their feat of picking five can obviously ensure their rapid demise.

Small Goals...... That's a small goal...... When I go back, I can do everything......

With an extremely relieved smile, Xia Yan also silently fell asleep.

Well, another book is going to be ruined.

After many days......

"Your Majesty, we have sent a war post to the five countries in the morning, and the troops are also preparing in their respective school fields at the moment, do you want to go on an inspection?"

Below, Xu Jing asked with a serious face.

Xia Yan above didn't blink his eyelids.

"No need."

After a while, it seemed that he felt that he should give them an explanation, so he said quietly.

"They are all my most elite courtiers in Great Xia, you should believe in them, and I believe in them."

Hearing this, Xu Jing's face was full of determination.

"Yes, trust them!"

Then he immediately told one of the guards that he could let the five-way army go.

With the issuance of the decree, the Fifth Route Army also began a mighty march.

This also means that he is not far from the death of the country, and this time it is really not far away.

As a result, Xia Yan also began to ask with interest about the situation of the household department in recent days in his spare time.

Yuan Liyang quickly stepped forward to explain.

"Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, General Huo, and Di Shangshu all want the most basic weapons and equipment and siege equipment, and the three of them each spend about 50,000 taels."

"Among them, Chen led the least flowers, he only asked for 50,000 arrows and 5,000 bows, and the cost was even less than 10,000 taels."

Xia Yan nodded, this is also about the same as his budget, if it is a long-term manufacturing, the cost will inevitably be reduced a lot.

However, since a lot of equipment takes a while to manufacture, it requires a large number of craftsmen to rush to work immediately, and the cost will naturally go up a lot.

In general, the cost of equipment for 50,000 people is 150,000 or 60,000 taels, which can be regarded as a money-saving plan.

"So if you calculate it like this, there are still more than 100,000 taels of silver left?"

"Uh...... There are probably less than 50,000 left. ”

“????”

Hearing this, even Xia Yan was a little confused, didn't he have more than 300,000 taels of silver?

Yuan Liyang's face showed a slight hint of helplessness, and then began to speak.

"General Xing spent more than 100,000 taels."

"! Cow Pie! ”

Xia Yan didn't expect that Xing Daorong could spend so much money, so he hurriedly asked, "What did you spend?" ”

Speaking of this, a trace of bitterness appeared on Yuan Liyang's face.

Then he told the deeds of Xing Daorong.

That's shipbuilding, there are 70 of them, and all of them are the same kind of small ships that were built before.

In order to ensure that all the ships could be delivered before today, Xing Daorong directly recruited a team of tens of thousands of craftsmen from foreign countries.

It should be said that although the labor is cheap, the cost of tens of thousands of people is also extremely huge, and a huge amount of timber is transported to the Xicheng Taihu Lake every day.

Everyone didn't sleep at night just to rush to work, and after a series of operations, all seventy ships were built this morning.

It is precisely because of this that the original seventy ships that cost about sixty or seventy thousand taels of silver were spent more than 100,000 taels under Xing Daorong's operation.
