Before Liu An arrived at the Central Army tent, Li Jixun had already met him, and he had welcomed him for half a mile.

"Brother An, come here so late, is there something good?"

"You can't wait any longer, and you can't wait any more. I have to authorize the official to run a team in the South China Sea, not called a chamber of commerce, but a cooperative, which is nominally to help Chameng. It is to educate and train Chameng people. In fact, it is for pepper, agarwood, wood, hemp, and spices."

Li Jixun didn't understand: "Does it take to dispatch troops late at night? There is no precedent for this matter. Do you have any official documents from the Privy Council?"

"It's not that I'm going to send troops. I asked the officials for a reward. The officials allowed the imperial soldiers to invest money to win the ranks. But I think there should be an upper limit for this matter, the upper limit for officers, and the number of soldiers who can invest at will. As long as they don't have money to live, they can't afford to pay for the business of Hujia."

Li Jixun was shocked.

When will civil servants get rich and still think of poor people joining the army?

In other words, these people were rich in Song Dynasty and had never owed military pay, but they had to deduct food expenses. They ate very little meat in the military camp. The most hateful thing is that they had not given enough salt.

Li Jixun turned to look at Cao Fu: "Little Fu, go to the two battalions to ask, are they willing to invest money?"

"Is this a question?"

"Let you ask."

"Yes." Cao Fu clasped his fists and walked out quickly.

There was a sound of light drums, about 150 numbers. Li Jixun and Liu An stations were stationed one hundred steps away, and there were two battalions neatly, with a total of 1,000 people.

Li Jixun stepped forward and pointed at Liu An: "Brother An, you don't know each other, have you heard of it."

"I've heard!" the imperial guards answered neatly.

Li Jixun said again: "Ange'er is going to go to the South China Sea to make a fortune. You know, you have to transport peppers back. Peppers in the South China Sea also have to be bought for money, and you also have to eat and drink on the way. Therefore, Ange'er plans to bring you money together, and you always have to make money. If you want to buy, take a step forward."

One thousand people, step forward neatly.

Who doesn't like to make money?

How much can you eat by relying on military pay? People will not be rich without external wealth.

Li Jixun turned to ask Liu An: "Is it my Beidaying or the imperial guards?"

"I have confronted the Imperial Army of Bianliang, guarded the Imperial Army of 500 miles, and the Imperial Army of the Imperial Army of the important places. But there is a limit on military officers, so don't be too many. I can't explain the official family."

Li Jixun waved his hand: "Okay, go back and sleep. Eight million coins, you won't be embarrassed about this share."

"Don't be embarrassed."

"Okay, send An Ge'er out of the camp." Li Jixun was not in a hurry to drive Liu An away, but he wanted to contact others immediately. Eight million was not too much for almost 250,000 imperial guards, plus military officers.

Even the savings of the military protection money and the savings of bills of exchange, which are currently nowhere to be piled up, can be immediately pulled by Liu An away, and then subdivided the military and carefully compiled the book.

Just talking about soldiers, one person has 2.5 million stakes.

This is not considered an officer.

The senior military officer has a very rich family, so Liu An said that there must be a limit on this matter.

Li Jixun knew the court better than Liu An. He only said the upper limit of 8 million guan after thinking. No matter how small it is, it is not enough to get a share, no matter how many, he is afraid that the military officers will cause trouble in the court.

The next day, a very magical scene appeared in the south of Bianliang City.

A fleet of one mile long appeared outside the manor of a fifth-rank official who was seized. Each car was a heavy car. If the ground had not been paved with stones, ordinary dirt roads would definitely not be able to withstand such heavy car.

Every car is full of money.

String it with long hemp rope, one string is standard for one hundred people, and a whole truck is piled up.

There were five steps and three steps on both sides of the road. The soldiers of the imperial guards were transporting their money to the manor.

A censor made suggestions on this matter in the court.

The emperor only answered one sentence: I understand.

Then there was no following.

When asked again, Lu Mengzheng stood up and said: There is no need to discuss this matter again. Don’t waste time. Whether Carboniferous is independent is the priority. Today, a result must be discussed.

On the evening of that day, Liu An had to work overtime in the palace, so he had not returned home yet.

Zhang Qixian has arrived.

Liu An's Earl's Mansion had three meals a day. At this time, some people had two meals and some had three meals, and the era of three meals had begun.

Pan Duoxin prepared dinner, which was very rich.

Liu Le, Liu Yi, Lu Yijian, and Zhao You were eating in the outer courtyard. Pan Ziling, Liu Jing, and Liu's mother were eating in the inner courtyard.

When Zhang Qixian arrived, he came to find Liu An, and he had some disciples and old officials. He came to discuss investing more money, because he heard that Kou Zhun had invested 200,000 guan, and Kou Zhun's disciples and old officials had already reached nearly 330,000 guan, so he came to Liu An to ask about this.

But as soon as he arrived at Liu's mansion, Zhang Qixian encountered dinner and dinner.

Lu Yijian stood up and said politely: "Mr. Zhang hasn't used supper yet, are you going to go together?"

"No, no..." Zhang Qixian subconsciously said politely, but he regretted it halfway through the politeness.

The main course was served.

Roasted duck in the hanging stove, unique to the Earl's Mansion of Anping, is definitely a hard dish.

Lu Yijian was a simple young man. Seeing that Zhang Qixian was polite, he didn't think much about it. He sat down and prepared to have a meal.

But can this rice be eaten?

Liu Le's chopsticks were hung in the air and could not go down.

Zhang Qixian's eyes were very stressful. Liu Le remembered that this kind of eyes were once with his father to deliver goods, but he didn't arrive at the village to rest at the wrong time, and only a few cakes filled his stomach.

At that time, this was how his father Liu Lang looked at the pancake.

At this time, the power of Zhang Qixian's eyes was definitely ten times that of Liu Lang.

Seeing Liu Le's chopsticks hovering, Lu Yijian was curious and looked at him. Seeing Zhang Qixian standing by the table, his eyes frightened him.

Liu Yi, who had just rolled a few slices of duck meat into the cake, couldn't bite his mouth because he also saw Zhang Qixian's eyes.

Zhao You, who had his back to Zhang Qixian, happily bit a duck cake rolled with his own hands in his mouth: "Yeah, yeah, it's so delicious. This sauce is good, it must be Qingzhou sauce."

Liu Le stood up, and Lu Yijian also stood up.

Liu Yi, who had the cake at his mouth, had no choice but to put it down and stood up.

Lu Yijian looked embarrassed: "Mr. Zhang, would you like to add a pair of chopsticks?"

"Since my nephew invites you again, I'm not polite." Zhang Qixian said, pulling a chair from the side, tearing a chicken leg first, and then grabbing a piece of scallion pancake.

When Liu An returned home.

There is not even a cooked food in the kitchen. As for meat, there is no meat except live chickens, ducks and sheep.

Liu Yi came to Liu An with tears in his eyes: "Brother, a thin old man from home is so scary, so scary. He is gone from food at home, he is still so thin..."

"Come on the bowl, let's have a vegetarian noodles." Liu An didn't want to worry about it, just take a few bites.

Liu'an's study.

Zhang Qixian kept a smile on his face.
