Chapter 79 Balance
Chen Mu has no idea of making a show, this is a routine operation to win people's hearts.
The Beiyang warlords also knew how to pay the soldiers step by step, and Chen Mu naturally knew.
But based on his own heart, he believed that the role of handing over food to the flag army was nothing more than the leader of a small company in later generations who transferred his salary to employees who urgently needed money. The effect was not bad, but it was not much better. After all, from the bottom of his heart, these fields were from the flag army, and they should get the share they deserved.
At most it is just a good harvest, so Chen Junye has a good omen.
But the truth was much better than he thought. Chen Mu summoned the flag army, and all the fifty flag army members were present. When he heard that the flag headed the flag would give each household ten stones of military ration for food and consumption, many of the rest of the family came.
The food in Shishi was not much, just enough for the general flag army of four or five to have two full meals a day.
The problem lies in Chen Mu's "reasonable" and there is a cognitive deviation from the "reasonable" of the flag army.
The young flag army, who fought bloody battles on the south bank of Xinjiang, stood in front of him, his chest and waist were straight, his face turned red with glory, and he shouted "I am willing to be the general flag" like a tongue-in-law; the old flag army trembled as Chen Mu ordered people to put ten stones of military rations on a large cart so that the horse could not walk. After suffering enough wrinkled faces, he burst into tears.
Not to mention that Yu Ding and the children were crying together.
In the eyes of those who were born as serfs, they were never right about food, money, all the enjoyment and good things in the world, and about themselves.
On the contrary, they should endure hardships, suffer from the burden, starves and freezes, and they should abandon their leaky huts in the cold winter to sleep with their livestock in doghouses and pigpens.
Surviving is the greatest reason.
Apart from this, there is no other luxury.
The first season of rice can produce ten stones in half a year. Even if the later season is less, five or six stones will be more than the most it produces in previous years!
"It's a good thing, don't cry."
The grain was distributed too much. The fifty families of flag soldiers sent it for half a day. It was almost evening when the food was distributed. The flag soldiers were still waiting in front of the General Banner Office with gratitude. Chen Mu had to do something else.
Although he sent out five hundred stones of grain in one day, Chen Mu still had to continue sending it.
"Military rations, Chen has given enough military rations. This is because this year, the flag army fought bravely to death. The general flag was full and only more than 20 people came back. From tomorrow on, we will train them every day. This grain is for your family, so that the rest of the family will not have any worries." Chen Mu looked at the flag army lined up in front and shouted: "There are flag troops in the venue to reward!"
After Chen Mu said this, the flag army wanted to support their ears.
Want to reward?
"I also need to reward you. Lao Zheng, the remaining resident who went into the cave to dig the soil last year, will be given five stones of grain per person!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the flag army lowered and the Yu Dings whispered. The fact that General Chen asked people to dig soil in the cave was not a secret under the General Secretary. Everyone knew it, but except for the ten flag army led by Chen Xiaoqi, the others, both the flag army and Yu Ding, were not willing to do that kind of thing.
Even if I was forced to go there, I would be slow and work hard.
Boiling nitride is a job of making great efforts. Without the banner, even if the Xinji Cave has three times the number of people before, they can only achieve slightly insufficient results.
If you want to take it, you must first give it to it.
Chen Mu knew what Yu Ding of the Banner Army wanted the most, and wanted food.
"Last year they slaughtered two thousand kilograms of nitro earth. This year's big hole, you can continue digging. When the spring next year begins, Chen will see how much you can dig out more than thirty gluten and how much you can slaughter. If it is 4 thousand kilograms, each person will also be rewarded with five stones of grain. If it is 5 thousand kilograms, each person will be rewarded with six stones of grain!"
As soon as Chen Mu finished speaking, the flag army below could not hold back. Someone shouted loudly: "Master Flag, my family will go too!"
"I'm going to my house too!"
This can mobilize the enthusiasm of the flag army's Yu Ding more than the previous twenty stones of grain. Chen Mu smiled and suppressed the flag army's shouting, saying: "Don't worry, the busy farming has not passed yet. When the farming is slack, there should be something for you to do this winter. If you don't avoid it, Chen will not hesitate to reward him. Whoever contributes to Chen will let him live like a person, do you understand!"
"Someone doesn't like to listen to this? What do you mean? Hum?" Chen Mu smiled and waved his hand to sweep the five small flags in the front line, saying, "Chen's small flag was used to be military households. As long as Yu Ding heard the driving force, Chen will give you food to you to ensure that you will not be hungry or freeze; as long as the flag army dares to fight to the death, Chen will guarantee that you will be given additional officials and reward silver, and will never be stingy!"
"I understand everything? Let's break up!"
Chen Mu waved his hand to disperse the flag army, and the flag army left with great gratitude. He called Shao Tingda and others and said, "You are waiting in the yamen. Zhengyan and Junxiong go to Phoenix Street with me - Qimai. It's all you have to do. Go back and rest first. Tomorrow, take people and silver to Guangcheng, buy seven or eight war horses, and five buffaloes come back."
Two small flag officials took the order to leave, and then the personal soldiers prepared horses. Chen Mu walked to Fenghuang Street, Qingyuan City with two swords and hands.
He now understands why the historical dynasties in the past were finally able to find land annexation. He did not need to pay taxes for all the best land in Qianhu, Thousand Houses in Qingcheng, because these 300 acres of land were spread equally into another 4,700 acres of military fields, and these 300 acres of private fields without taxes, and one season of rice brought him 400 stones of grain.
The second season of rice has generally lower harvests than the first season due to the decline in land fertility, but it has potassium fertilizer, so the situation is slightly better.
This means that 300 acres of land can bring him an annual income of five or six hundred taels of silver.
You don’t need to work hard, but you earn much more than you work hard!
He led his troops to fight and kill the rebels on the bank of Xinjiang River. I don’t know how many people he killed, but the reward he ended up with was 500 taels?
Driven by such interests, who has power, financial resources and land will not passively annex the land?
Not to mention that the first season of rice in the hundred households has surplus of thousands of stones of military rations this year.
But the Chen General Banner is not another Wang General Banner. The Li Banner, where Chen General Banner is located, is not the hundred-household office where Wang General Banner is located.
When drinking water, you must not forget the well digger.
So Chen Mu wanted to drive his horse to the Bai family mansion on Fenghuang Street at this dusk. He had to tell Bai Yuanjie that the arrangements of Deputy Qianhu Bai's garrison or the minor reforms in personnel system would work.
His surplus of thousands of stones of military rations was almost full, and the surplus was able to eat a full meal. The best proof was that the rest of the country was able to eat.
The flag army defeated the combat power of the two guards. Yu Ding was the farming season for two Yu Ding, and of course he also ate the food of two people.
By letting the flag army eat up the empty salary that was originally abolished by the garrison, it can bring qualitative changes to the guards.
However, Chen Junye's action of knocking on the Bai family's mansion in the dark was destined to be lost. Bai Jingchen and Zhang Yongshou, a hundred household of the Zhang family, and two officers who had served as commanders of Qingyuan for generations of ancestors, had already gone to Guangzhou Prefecture to be busy with their three people's military achievements and promotion.
