Chapter 025: A Request That Makes the Leader Very Unhappy
Chapter 025 Requests that make the leader very unhappy
Peng Feng also felt that his requirements were a bit high. The Niujiaodun soldier was thirty, and now there were only eight, with a total of twenty-two. To make up all the vacancy, it was indeed very difficult for the newly appointed Xu Xingxia. As a boss, he still had to do his best on the surface. He said: "If you have any difficulties, you can raise them. As long as I can solve them, I will try my best to solve them."
Xu Xingxia was waiting for this sentence, and immediately raised her head and said, "Master Qianhu, can we send all the money and grain owed by our Niujiaodun soldiers?"
The people around were slightly stunned, their expressions suddenly changed, and some even looked at each other.
The soldiers of Niujiaodun naturally stretched their ears and waited for Peng Feng's answer anxiously. They were all owed for at least six months of food and salary, and the amount was quite large. If they could be paid, it would be great. Even Chen Hai couldn't help but look forward to it. By the way, his money and food were also owed.
Others looked at Peng Feng silently with anticipation. If Niujiadun’s food and salary could be paid, could other people’s money be paid? As a Qianhuo, you can’t just take care of the people in Niujiadun and forget the existence of so many people, right? If you favor one and the other, you will cause a big storm.
Of course, some people looked at the group of people in Niujiaoduan with jealous eyes. Damn, you have already received a white silver reward and are still thinking about such a little food and salary! Even if you want to pay, you should be given the first one to those of us who have no reward! Some people couldn't help but go up and spit at Xu Xingxia. However, when they thought of Xu Xingxia's sharp archery skills, they finally held back. They couldn't afford to offend this person.
Distributing the owed money and grain? Peng Feng never expected that Xu Xingxia would ask for the owed money and grain at this critical moment. Chen Hai had never asked for this before. This caught Peng Feng off guard. For a moment, Lord Qianhu really didn't know how to answer, and his expression was quite embarrassing.
The distribution of money and food has always been very sensitive. What is the most concerned about by military households? Of course, it is their own money and food. If it is not handled well, a big mess may occur. The mutinies in Ningxia Town are one after another, and it is not because of food and money? The relationship between Ningxia Governor Li Maohui, Ningxia Army Preparation Deputy Envoy Li Zhijing, and Ningxia Town General Li Guozhen are quite bad. The two of them always deliberately owed money and food to make things difficult for Li Guozhen.
After slowly calming down, Peng Feng was quite angry with Xu Xingxia. Xu Xingxia was really ignorant. At this time, he asked such an embarrassing question. Can I make the decision on distributing money and grain? The owed money and grain of the court did not send it, so where can I send it to you? Besides, whether to send money or not is up to me. When is it your turn to point fingers? Do you want to rebel?
Wang Shoulu was Peng Feng's confidant. When he found that Peng Feng was unhappy, he immediately raised his face and stood in front of Xu Xingxia, saying in a low voice: "Xu Xingxia, don't talk nonsense! You have already received a generous reward, and are you still thinking about so much money and food?"
Xu Xingxia Ang said, "Wang Baihu, your words are wrong. The rewards are exchanged for their lives by brothers. The money and grain are what we deserve. Niujiaoduan's money and grain have been owed for six months, so they should have been paid."
Wang Shoulu frowned and said, "That's all set. If the boss has no money and grain, why do we have money and grain to you? Even my own money and grain have been owed for a long time. Your Niujiaodun's money and grain are just owed for six months. Some troops have been owed for three years. What's the owed for six months?"
Xu Xingxia said slowly: "Niujiaoduan is the outpost of the entire Ningxia Town. The defenders here have to deal with the Tatar cavalry at all times. I hope all the bosses will consider it. Of course, I understand the difficulties of the court."
Peng Feng waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Shi! Shit all!"
Xu Xingxia hurriedly said, "Thank you, Lord Qianhu!"
Peng Feng stopped talking and turned around and left.
Zhang Qiuqing, Wang Shoulu, Chen Hai and others also left.
When Yu Lijun left, he wanted to say something to Xu Xingxia, but in the end he didn't say anything. The atmosphere was originally a good thing, but he was disturbed by the stupid question raised by Xu Xingxia. Xu Xingxia was a little tender. At this time, it would be strange if Peng Feng was not angry when he asked such a question. This was completely coercive of him, the master of Qianhu! Xu Xingxia's military achievements were diluted in a blink of an eye.
Everyone could see that Peng Feng was quite unhappy in his heart. Xu Xingxia's request was indeed a bit ignorant of the generalities. Nothing else, the court was the court, not the ward, nor the guard, nor the town. Peng Feng agreed to distribute the money and grain, so he naturally asked the Qianhu Office to advance funds. To be honest, Peng Feng was really unwilling to do this. If this matter was about to begin, it would be difficult for others to speak.
Besides, Peng Feng could not bear the responsibility. The entire Thousand Households had accumulated all the money and grains that were owed, and there were at least tens of thousands of taels of silver. Where did Peng Feng go to find tens of thousands of taels of silver? However, at this time, it would be a bit bad to refute Xu Xingxia's face. In the future, this Niujiao Dun would have to rely on this kid! If Xu Xingxia had not killed seven Tartars, Peng Feng might have dragged him out and drew thirty military sticks.
Peng Feng took two steps, stopped again, turned around and said to Wang Shoulu: "Shoulu, you can arrange the distribution of money and food at that time."
Wang Shoulu hurriedly said, "I understand."
Gao Meng, Zhang Quanfu and others' hopes were immediately extinguished.
Isn’t this a joke to ask Wang Shoulu to distribute their money and grain? Wang Shoulu had a little conflict with Xu Xingxia just now. Will he be willing to distribute the money and grain of Niujiaoduan soldiers smoothly? Peng Feng agreed. Wang Shoulu was detained, and everyone’s money and grain would not be able to get it. Damn, they are all bastards!
Xu Xingxia pretended not to understand the trick at all, bowed to Wang Shoulu and said, "Then I'll ask Lord Baihu."
Wang Shoulu smiled coldly and said indifferently: "I will do my best."
Xu Xingxia smiled slightly and didn't say anything. How could he not understand Peng Feng and Wang Shoulu's thoughts? But he was too lazy to say it. Peng Feng was very angry, but he was afraid that Peng Feng would go wild. Now, it was not the time to let Peng Feng go wild. Anyway, he had completed the task he asked Peng Feng. As for what he did, he didn't need to pay attention to. The soldiers below would only vent their anger on the top.
This is what Xu Xingxia needs. At this time, it was also considered after careful consideration. As a boss, you must make your subordinates grateful for hope, promising and courage. Proposing the request to Peng Feng to pay arrears is a manifestation of this courage. I can do what Chen Hai cannot do!
At the same time, this is also quietly sowing the seeds of dissatisfaction with their superiors deep in their hearts. He is unwilling to go past them and please their superiors. In his eyes, he is the biggest boss! Once the seeds of dissatisfaction are watered and fertilized, they will grow vigorously and soar to the sky.
When talking about the issue of distributing the arrears of money and food, Peng Feng was relieved and no longer in the mood to stay at Niujiaoduan. He said to Zhang Qiuqing casually: "I'll go back to Weizhen Fort first. Ask them to pack up their things and bring the spoils, and go back to Weizhen Fort! Give them a few days of vacation and reunite with their families!"
This is to start hanging red flowers and parade the streets. Although Xu Xingxia was quite unhappy, some things Peng Feng would not forget. It is rare that there are such Tatar cavalry corpses as spoils. If Peng Feng doesn't show off his good looks, it wouldn't be Peng Feng. Wu Datou probably was near Weizhen Fort at this time, and he happened to be under his nose, making a big fuss, deliberately stimulating him.
Soon, Peng Feng's servant temporarily took over Niujiaodun's defense. In this way, the more than ten people in Niujiaodun could be used as heroes in the battle and go back to Weizhen Fort to hang red flowers, which was praised by people. However, Zhang Qiuqing, deputy deputy, was obviously very unhappy Xu Xingxia. He said to Xu Xingxia coldly: "Have you packed up? Let's go!"
Judging from his tone, it was not like he was going to celebrate the merits, but like he was going to the execution ground. This made Niujiaodun's soldiers even more dissatisfied with their superiors, but were full of gratitude to Xu Xingxia. The new General Banner suffered a lot of grievance for the money and food of his brothers. The so-called grace of water should be repaid with a spring of water. We must remember this great kindness.
"Gao Meng!"
"Zhang Quanfu!"
Xu Xingxia called out the two small flags under his command.
From later generations, he had no difficulty in changing his roles. Gao Meng and Zhang Quanfu had no objection to the change of Xu Xingxia's status. Others shot and killed twenty-three Tartars and were promoted through real military achievements. Relatively speaking, what can he be?
"All notice!"
"Two columns are not allowed to go in a mess!"
Xu Xingxia ordered Niujiaodun's soldiers to put the corpses of the Tartars horizontally on the horse's back, lined up in two columns, followed Zhang Qiuqing and others, and slowly set off towards Weizhen Fort. Perhaps, Peng Feng, Zhang Qiuqing and others did not want him to continue to show off, but Xu Xingxia would not miss such an opportunity.
If you don’t let others know your name and don’t establish prestige in other people’s minds, how can you rule one side in the future? Transferring one side is not something you can do by daydreaming. You have to have a large group of people who support you. To have such a group of people, you must give them benefits, confidence, and hope.
