Chapter 32: King Sun Yan's Brilliant Touch
At dawn the next day, Qin Hong came to the Xiaohewan military camp again with his own soldiers.
He felt that he didn't look carefully yesterday, and he couldn't see the doors and doors inside from this little thing in the barracks, so he would have to look at it a few more times!
It was still discovered from afar, and this time it was a sergeant named Blackface.
When I entered the camp, it was just the time when the morning exercise was over and breakfast began.
The smell went straight to the nostrils, and the old man didn't recognize it, and said with a grin: "I came in a hurry in the morning, and I didn't care about breakfast." Can you have a meal? ”
Sun Zheng thinks this old man is very cute, is this a gesture of favor to me?
Cut, civil officer!
Following the old man's wishes, he took the old man directly to the canteen.
The old man was shocked again, and looked at the military appearance and discipline of the people. The dining hall is also neatly lined up, beating food one by one, and there is almost no noise during the whole process.
The old man and Sun Zheng sat opposite each other, and the soldiers spontaneously gathered at another table.
Breakfast is spicy soup and large meat buns. The old man looked at it very seriously, everyone was the same, and he didn't deliberately make any difference because of their appearance.
As soon as I bit it, I almost moaned with happiness.
Take a sip of the hot spicy soup, it's amazing! So much salt, so much seasoning, is this a guess that the old man is coming today? And a boiled egg per person? Can't live this day?
But the old man didn't say anything, he thought about it for most of the night last night, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he couldn't figure it out.
After breakfast, I saw that the soldiers had washed the dishes and placed the dishes and chopsticks neatly in the kitchen cabinet, and even the chopsticks were in the same position. When you look closer, each cabinet is marked with a flower code character, like a Hu Ren number.
After a short break, the morning formal training began, and the soldiers put on armor, put on leggings, and carried strange-looking bird guns, and scattered into different areas for training in small teams.
The old man looked at it for a while, and asked out loud: "Sun Qianhu's bird gun is made by the internal prison?" ”
Sun Zhengxin said that I said that I am afraid that you will not understand the system manufacturing, and you say that it is an internal supervisor, even if it is an internal supervisor.
"Why didn't you see the fire?"
"It's not time yet! This is just the beginning of getting acquainted with firearms, and it is conservatively estimated that it will be at least another month before it is the turn to fire. ”
"How long has it been? The old man saw that these soldiers were quite effective, and in terms of orders and prohibitions, they were not much worse than those elites in the army...... Well, more than that, it should be the only time that the old man has seen in the army for several years! ”
"I'm embarrassed to praise Qin Shuai, God knows how much effort it took to make these fools distinguish between the left and right."
Qin Hongle was happy: "The new recruits are veterans of more than ten years, and there are many who can't recognize the left and right and can't tell the direction. Exercises and battles can only be made up with the big numbers. ”
Looking at the soldiers from a distance as they trained in various tactical subjects, it seemed that the progress and subjects of each team were slightly different.
The old man remembered a question: "When you came yesterday, you led the team to practice, and when you came today, you were practicing again." You soldiers, how many days do you? ”
Sun Zheng was stunned: "I am in a hurry to practice every day, and I dare to every few days?" You can't stop for a day until you've developed effective muscle memory! ”
The old man was startled, and suddenly thought of the trick: "You are here, usually this kind of food?" ”
"That's a must! If you don't have adequate nutrition, how dare you practice like this? I'm tired and dead. ”
Qin Hong was convinced, why did he say that he was poor and rich? People who practice martial arts eat a lot! Those generals and sects of the rivers and lakes, which are not poured into the stomach with massive resources, can only provide a few masters by luck.
But in this era, not to mention pro-soldiers, even pro-sons, there are not necessarily people who can give up more resources and desperately provide for a group of rice buckets.
With his military training method, the old man can raise ten times as much, and there is still left!
This King Sun Yan, how much money can he make? With just a few inns and dart boards, can you feed three hundred pro-soldiers?
With doubts, the old man hurriedly ended his patrol. Hui Ya changed into civilian clothes and went to visit a street in the four seas.
When you step on this street, you can clearly feel that it is different from other places. The cleanliness of the street alone is eye-catching. Every once in a while, a woman with a broom is cleaning.
Looking up at the signboard, there are wine, tea, cloth, ready-to-wear and the like, in short, almost all the businesses that can be used in ordinary life can be found on the streets of the four seas. Of course, the most conspicuous ones are still a few restaurants and restaurants.
The old man walked around the whole street, and found a building on the street with a thousand houses hanging on the brocade clothes. I could see a group of people coming in and out of something busy, and when I heard it closely, it turned out to be helping a few merchants mediate disputes.
The old man listened with great interest for a while, and found that these people in strange uniforms did not have the usual face of the servants, but spoke very casually like acquaintances next door. Of course, after the mediation, both parties have to pay a few pennies, but looking at the appearance of the two people, this money is more like taking advantage.
At lunchtime, the old man entered the Four Seas Restaurant.
The welcoming servant was very enthusiastic: "How many masters are here?" Are you coming back to our store for the first time? Do you want a private room or a lobby ......"
Of course, choose the lobby, otherwise you can see something.
There are not many dishes, but they are all hard dishes. The signature rice is beef and mutton steamed buns, the entourage has good teeth, ordered hard bread, the old man asked for two butter cakes, and ordered a bowl of water.
The sea bowl with a large human head, a thick layer of oil floats on it, and the chopsticks stick in to catch it, and most of the bowl is meat, which is rich!
Meimei eats a meal, checks out, and the average is fifteen cents per person. It's not cheap, but it's far from expensive.
Roughly calculated, there were more than forty tables in the entire lobby, and each table was crowded with diners. Five or six are common, and there are seven or eight. In the lobby on the first floor alone, at least 200 people dine. It's not a turnover, and this pull can also be sold for three times. Can you eat two sheep? The price of cattle and sheep in Guyuan is so cheap that the herdsmen want to vomit blood, and a cow is only up and down.
Just at noon, you can earn a tael of silver on the first floor, and the big head must still be in the upstairs box.
Yesterday a few of them said that this street packed 3,000 taels and sold it to him? It seems to be a loss! According to his earning method, he will be able to return to his capital in half a year.
For comparison, the old man turned to other blocks, and the commercial activities were indeed quite frequent, but compared with other people's Sihai Street, it was impossible to see at all.
Not!
A few days later, the old man went to the barracks outside the city. This time it was lunch, and when I met dumplings, the old man ate very happily.
"The old man has been to Sihai Street, and he is quite touched!" The old man explained his intention very directly: "This time, I want Qianhu to help the old man take care of the entire Guyuan City." A Sihai Street is nothing, and the entire Guyuan City must be like Sihai Street in order to attract merchants and stabilize the hearts of the people.
The old man plans to immigrate from the mainland in the spring of next year and clean up the abandoned fields in the north! But all of this requires money. The cabinet ministers, when they coaxed the old man to come, they talked wildly, and now they hear the old man asking for money and food, but they just pretend to be deaf and dumb.
Senhe said that day that as long as it was beneficial to the three sides, he would strongly support it. Now the old man needs a thousand households, and I hope that thousands of households will not shirk. You and I will work together to fulfill Your Majesty's entrustment as soon as possible. ”
The old man is a man who understands.
After coming to Daming for so many years, the old man is the high-ranking official Sun Zheng has ever seen who looks like a serious doctor. Such a request, of course, cannot be refused.
However, Sun Zheng did not directly intervene in the governance of Guyuan, but formulated a development outline after a few days of thinking.
This outline has made very detailed plans and arrangements for the future development of the entire Guyuan.
It includes setting up different trading areas inside and outside the city, and setting up a supervision team to maintain fair trading. The dispatch of public security, health and other personnel in the sub-districts of the city.
And most importantly, how to make a profit!
In terms of people's livelihood, just the method of raising chickens on that scale, if you really follow his approach, more than 100,000 sergeants on the three sides can eat eggs every day!
His method of composting and composting and intensive cultivation still needs to be verified. But look at this set of processes, it doesn't look like nonsense.
After reading this compendium, Qin Hong only felt that he had lived in vain all these years. It turns out that it is so easy for the government to make money. There is no need to squeeze those peasant households desperately, as long as they provide a good environment for those merchants and collect a little tax appropriately. The point is, this model, as long as it is slightly modified and adapted to local conditions, can be applied everywhere!
As for the old practice of the Ming Dynasty not collecting commercial taxes, it! The old man confiscated the commercial tax, just like Sun Qianhu said, and collected sanitation fees, management fees, and service fees for security and firefighters!
was poked open by Sun Zheng this layer of window paper, and the old man suddenly brightened, only to feel that everything in front of him looked like Brother Kong Fang.
Qin Hong is a master of military and politics, and he has been in the officialdom for a long time, with several ups and downs, and he is not under anyone.
A few reports were handed to the cabinet, and after a lot of skinning, the sword suddenly went sideways. If you don't give money and food, I can raise it myself, there are so many displaced people in the Guan, you can't afford to feed them, so you just pack them and send them to me. I'll use them to open up wasteland, and I'll raise troops in my own fields.
The cabinet is glad that it is not enough, Lao Qin has grabbed two hot potatoes, good people!
Before the arrival of midwinter, the vigorous development of Guyuan began to go through the process.
