Zhu Gaochi looked at He Qiu's style, and soon followed the bad learning, and after the people of the Chamber of Commerce accepted some of the trivial tasks of checking the account books and sorting out the expenses, they also became a supervisor who supervised everyone's work.

Reduced the matter of personally getting on the horse and staying up late to sort out the account books, but went to explain more to the original group of military officials, usually drink more tea and move their mouths.

After all, no one is born a workaholic, and they still want to be lazy if they can be lazy.

Even the dark circles under his eyes that he stayed up late a few days ago have disappeared a lot, and seeing Zhu Gaoxu being supervised by himself, his mood is even more relaxed, I don't know how much.

Think about it, my younger brother, who loves to fight against him on weekdays, works under his own supervision this time, although there are occasional confrontations, but he only dares to shout.

When Zhu Gaochi is working, he can still receive grateful little eyes from everyone, not to mention, he works less and others work more, can this be a bad mood?

It's not that there is a saying, happiness is built on the pain of others, seeing Zhu Gaochu working so diligently, he can sit there and enjoy happiness, Zhu Gaozhi is almost dying of laughter.

However, Zhu Gaochi is also very strange, he can rarely see He Qiu in the camp tent recently, two days ago, no matter how lazy He Qiu was, he would sit in the camp tent from time to time.

That afternoon, Zhu Gaochi finally blocked He Qiu, and he asked He Qiu directly, asking him what he had been busy with recently.

He Qiu didn't hide it from him, and he couldn't hide it.

briefly told Zhu Gaochi that he was busy building a road from the camp of the Ming Expedition to Beiping City.

In this way, the subsequent transportation of grain and grass and the capture of baggage are much more convenient than now.

Zhu Gaochi was taken aback, and asked with some hesitation: "The army has just set off from Beiping, and in recent days, these hundreds of thousands of people have eaten horses and chewed horses, and they are also supplied by Beiping City. ”

He Qiu denied it very decisively, and explained to Zhu Gaochi: "The road I am talking about is not to let the people serve, but to pay them wages." ”

"What's more, the roads I build don't need to use loess to ram the ground back and forth, let alone pick up a lot of stones from other places, in fact, the burden on the people has been reduced a lot."

Speaking of this, He Qiu, who was interested, was extremely happy to give Zhu Gaochi an economic lesson, although Zhu Gaochi said it was foggy, but it cannot be denied that what He Qiu said was indeed not wrong.

He Qiu was afraid that Zhu Gaochi would not believe it, so he deliberately pulled him around the people's yard.

Only then did Zhu Gaochi put his mind at ease, if something happened when the army was marching out, then his father King Yan would inevitably be criticized for a while.

said that the people on this side of the barracks were almost stupid at first.

Who made the edict issued by the government at that time to levy all adult men and women in the vicinity of Beiping.

Originally, as long as the troops marched and fought, they had never seen farmers who were not recruited.

It turned out that every household was one ding, and their hearts were ready.

But as soon as the edict came out, everyone began to talk about it.

This time, He Qiurang issued a notice regardless of men and women, as long as they are young and strong, they will be levied and issued together.

Originally, this group of people was still extremely dissatisfied, thinking that the government was forcing them to death, but when the detailed strategy was introduced, everyone said that He Qiu was a good official.

After all, why ask for this requisition of people's husbands, if you change the original practice of the imperial court, not only do you not need to bring your own dry food, but you will still give them silver.

Each person is paid 10 yuan a day, which is a great thing.

As a result, the people were very active in participating in the logistics of the expedition to the Northern Yuan.

He Qiu did not make up the number indiscriminately, but was extremely meticulous in dividing the labor of the people who came to work.

The young and strong ones are responsible for burning cement and building roads.

And the women took them with them in the camp, and they burned their rations every day, and sewed sacks of grain, and they also had silver.

He Qiu also specially transferred a group of carpenters from the village near the academy to help design and build the wind mill in the original world.

They also deliberately found dozens of shrewd people, some of whom threw away old clothes, some went to buy the necessary needles and threads, and some went to the Changping warehouse in Peiping to transport back military rations.

As for whether it will be said to be a strange and clever skill, He Qiu can't care so much, not to mention that his Taoism is to fall on the real thing.

Looking at these wind mills, the little abacus in He Qiu's heart crackled.

Since he was paying the people and did not let them serve for free, this practice of hanging accounts on military expenses would naturally be discovered by the generals who stayed behind in the army.

Now the general who stayed here is not very happy, you have to be a good man, you can't squander our military funds, if you let the other brothers know, then don't scold me to death.

So, Chen Song and Chen Guerrilla came to He Qiu to reason.

After listening to Chen Song's words, He Qiu said very easily.

"Don't be anxious, I really didn't waste your military spending."

Turning around, he shouted, "Gao Chi, get the map." ”

After Zhu Gaochi showed the map of the Ming Border Fortress to He Qiu, He Qiu enthusiastically pointed it out to Chen Song and explained his plan.

"Guerrilla Chen, look. This is the Miyun town we are in now, if we can build a road, Xuanfu in the west, Daning in the north, and Beiping in the south, then it can be used as a gathering place for the follow-up army to go out. ”

"And once this road is built, it will be able to reduce the loss of military food in transportation, which is of great significance to stabilizing the frontier."

Chen Song's face didn't move, and he said coldly.

"I know it makes sense, but you can't use military money privately."

He Qiu was so angry that he jumped to his feet, why was this person so brainless.

"I didn't use the military money privately, although I gave money to the people, but they couldn't spend the money elsewhere, and they all stayed in the barracks!"

At this moment, Chen Song was taken aback, what kind of operation was this, but he quickly calmed down and said that he didn't believe He Qiu's words.

He Qiu could only ask Zhu Gaochi to take out the account books again and show them to Chen Song.

Chen Song took it and took a look, and his first feeling was that it was pleasing to the eye and looked organized, but he couldn't understand the things inside when he looked at it.

"Why do you send out tens of thousands of taels of silver every day, and most of them can be recovered the next day?"

He Qiu smiled, like a profiteer, and explained to Chen Song unhurriedly.

"Although I gave these people money money, and there are a lot of copper plates, but during the construction of the road, they all stayed in Miyun Town."

"Miyun is now the barracks of the army, and the steamed bun shops opened here are all opened by me, and the money taken from the army, after the work, the people always have to eat, this time, most of the silver money will be returned to the army."

"But because the people are paid by the court to hire them to work, the enthusiasm for road construction is not ordinarily high, but it is much more efficient than the usual collection of people."

After listening to this, Chen Song couldn't figure out this truth, and in the end, for the sake of reality, he could only say from the bottom of his heart: "Good countryman, you are really a big profiteer, you have no conscience." ”

He Qiu is not ashamed at all, profiteers are profiteers, as long as they are of some use to the people, this kind of practice of his own is much better than forcibly conscripting the people, and the cost is very small.
