Chapter 7 Beauty Bonus
"Empress, will we be rewarded for capturing the blue-faced ghost?"
Luo Feng was still thinking, but Xiaojiu could not help but ask. A bandit had ten stakes of money. Everyone had already discussed it just now. The bandit leader was the second brother of Qin, so each of them could have two stakes and bounties, which was twenty stakes.
"Hahaha!"
Zhang Yichen laughed, "The eighteen ghosts on the blue face all offer rewards. Since you captured these thieves, you will naturally have a reward." As he said, he said to Luo Feng, "You can think about the errands of the constable first, and it is not too late to reply after going back. No matter what the result is, your reward will not be less than you."
When everyone heard this news, they were so happy that they almost jumped up. Twenty taels, if they really could get it, they wouldn’t have to worry about hunger and cold this winter.
"Not only will you offer a reward, you have also saved your daughter from this county, and you will also have a reward for your appreciation."
Zhang Xutuo valued Qin Qiong more. After all, Qin Qiong was a soldier who had been trained in the army, and his previous performance in capturing bandits was even more remarkable. Unfortunately, Qin Qiong was from the Right Guard. After asking, he learned that he was also the personal soldier of the General of the Right Guard, so he could only shake his head and regret it.
Lai Hu'er is a general trusted by the emperor today, and he was named Duke Rong. Lai Hu'er was originally from Nanchen, but later he swam across the river alone to join the Sui Dynasty and joined the army. In just over twenty years, he became the general of the Right Guard and Duke Rong from a small soldier. His promotion speed was much faster than Zhang Xutuo.
It is impossible for Zhang Xutuo to poach the enemy. Besides, he is now transferred to the county magistrate of Qi and no longer a member of the twelve guards. He is now in charge of county soldiers and is not in the same system as the military soldiers of the guards, so it is even more impossible to poach people from the Right Guard.
"Mr. Zhang, I still have to thank you more today." Zhang Yichen asked his daughter to come over and thank Zhang Xutuo.
"I was passing by Zhangqiu, and I happened to be entertained by you in your county government. How could I not help you when you encounter something, but I didn't help me."
"If the county magistrate is not in a hurry to rush, why not go back to the county government and ask Zhang to hold a good banquet and treat them together, and thank these heroes and righteous people."
Zhang Xutuo looked at the sky. It was getting late at this time and it was dark. It was not suitable for traveling. It was just between Zhangqiu and Licheng counties, and it was closer to Zhangqiu City.
"Well, then I'll go back to Zhangqiu."
········
"Xiao Wu, what were you hesitating about just now? The county magistrate personally asked you to do a constable. What a great errand." Uncle Luo San asked anxiously.
Luo Feng held his broken bag with a wooden stick and walked with his fellow villagers to follow the teammates Zhang County Magistrate and Zhao County Magistrate and his team. The bandits and corpses had been taken over by the county people. They were so happy that they were leisurely. Even Zhang County Magistrate even asked them to give them some dry food.
Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu were holding a steamed cake and gnawing, looking like a starving ghost was reincarnated.
"There are many benefits to being a constable, but I have to ask my family first for such a big deal."
"What else do you want to ask? Think about it, your family is a whole family, but now your father and four brothers are recruited to serve, and you probably won't be able to come back at this time. Now there is not a single strong man in your family. How can you plant the land in your family after the spring? Your family was originally in the place, and you could live by relying on ironwork to exchange for some money and food, but now your father and brothers are not at home. Can you build the ironwork stove by relying on you?"
"It's better to be a constable. You know, this regular constable is not as good as a constable. Although there is no monthly salary and food, the benefits are less open and secret? No one can do without any constables. Among these three teams, the best job is fast-tracks. You usually have various filial piety and tribute salary. If you want to be a member of the service, you won't know whether you have any food or drink in the future. Moreover, if you are a constable in our Nanshan Village as a constable in the county town, our village will be taken care of in the future."
Luo Feng smiled and said nothing. He also felt that the benefit of the constable was quite good, but he was still a little hesitant. First, he hadn't asked his family yet, and I wonder if Luo's mother would agree. Another thing was that he felt that the Liao Dynasty was about to begin, and the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty were about to begin.
At that time, there were war fires everywhere and people were chaotic and bandits everywhere, so it was difficult for the officers and soldiers of the Guards to be the ones, let alone the arresting officers and soldiers in the yamen.
"It's a pity that you are too young now, otherwise you, Brother Qin, would have helped you to order a mansion soldier. Once you are selected as a mansion soldier, you will have a job as a mansion for the rest of your life. Don't worry about eating anymore, you will eat imperial food."
As a military soldier, he can give land and land, and the amount of land will be sufficient. A hundred acres of whole land is not like the people. When he reaches age, he has to rely on the local area to divide the land and there are too many fields. For example, Luo Feng is now sixteen this year and has started serving. He was originally about to share land and land. However, because Zhangqiu is in the heart of the Central Plains and has a narrow land and many people, although he is sixteen or more, the government has no land to give him any.
Even the five strong men in his family had only a total of three fathers and two brothers who had land. Each person had twenty acres, and a total of sixty acres were divided into land.
If the five strong men in their family were subject to the equal land order, they would have to be one hundred acres, not to mention that women could still share the land and give land at the beginning of the country.
As a government soldier, regardless of these, the superiors will ensure that the government soldier can obtain a full 100 acres of land. Moreover, this 100 acres of land does not have to bear the tax on renting and regulating these taxes. The amount of planting is their own. Just go to train in your spare time and prepare a set of equipment.
"There is no such easy thing as a mansion soldier. My family's conditions are not up to the standard of selecting a mansion soldier. Besides, even if I can, my family has no money to buy a set of mansion soldier equipment."
"That's right." Uncle Luo San couldn't help but shook his head and sighed. Everyone knew that being a soldier was good, but it was not so easy to be a soldier. Not to mention the conditions, he still had to have money.
········
Before entering the city, there was a person coming out of the carriage, but it was the thin maid.
She took out two things and gave them to Qin Qiong and Luo Feng respectively.
"My little girl said thank you for your life-saving grace. This is a little thank you, I hope you will accept it."
After saying that, the maid turned around and left.
"Fifth Brother, what did Zhang Xiaoniang give you? Take a look."
Wrapped with a gauze scarf, Luo Feng opened it, and there were several gold leaves inside. It seemed that it would probably weigh two or three taels. One or two taels of gold in the Sui Dynasty could be exchanged for about five taels of silver or eight jin coins. These gold leaves could be worth at least twenty jin coins, which is a great thank you.
Qin Qiong also opened his thank-you gift, but it turned out that it was not a golden leaf, but a small bronze mirror.
"Ah, there's only a bronze mirror." Xiaojiu said disappointed when he saw that it wasn't Jin.
Luo Feng's eyes widened and looked at his second cousin Qin Qiong with some envy.
Zhang Xiaoniang gave her a few taels of gold, but she gave Qin Qiong a bronze mirror. This is obvious. Compared with her second cousin, Zhang Xiaoniang prefers her second cousin.
