Chapter Forty-Five Thousands of Threads

Ying Yi then said to Lian Biao: "Once various affairs in the valley become busy, the people you lead must also take action. Road construction and supervision, driving away wild beasts, protecting the people, etc. are all within your scope of responsibility. There is a long way to go." "

Lian Biao took a breath and clasped his fists: "Don't worry, sir, Lian Biao will never fall into any trap."

Ying Yi nodded and said to the scholar: "No matter what you do, you must first set the rules. Whether it is opening roads or making gun barrels, I do not intend to ask the people in the form of labor. The army has military pay, and the people work for me. There must also be wages. Those who open the roads must be paid, and those who make poles must be paid. As for how much the wages should be, it is up to you, scholar. Remember not to be harsh."

After hearing this, the scholar couldn't help but be a little surprised and said: "I know that you are kind-hearted, but you only have two million taels of silver. If you spend it wantonly, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand much trouble."

Ying Yi waved his hand: "Of course I know. I have secretly calculated that the salary in Bibo Valley is about more than 200 taels a month. The military salary is about 4,000 taels a month. If there are casualties in the war, it will be more than 200 taels. I want more. For ten thousand spear shafts, my budget is 2,500 taels. That is to say, I will pay four cents of silver for making one spear pole. One person who leads the way will have twenty cents a day, and three batches of people will be counted as three thousand people. It consumes sixty taels of silver a day and one thousand eight hundred taels a month. Added together, the amount of silver consumed in the first month is less than ten thousand taels."

Sun Xiucai listened and took notes, nodding slightly.

Ying Yi said: "If there is a way to make military uniforms, let it be made among the people. One for spring and autumn, one for summer, and one for winter, two sets of each. Each soldier has six sets of uniforms. There are more than three thousand people, nearly Twenty thousand sets of military uniforms are priced according to the quality of the military uniforms. If the quality is average, it will only cost dozens to hundreds of taels. Military uniforms are changed once a year, which means that the annual expenditure on military uniforms is only a few thousand taels at most. But the armor is a big deal. But I don’t think about it for the time being.”

"No matter how you calculate it, two million taels of silver, at least within a few years, will be no problem." Ying Yi concluded: "I will also contact businessmen to purchase supplies. When we develop ourselves, we can still sell goods. . By that time, a healthy and good operating mechanism will be formed, and there will be no need to lose everything."

"And although the money seems to be consumed, it actually falls into the hands of the people. Once the people have money, the economic cycle can be restored. Food, salt and other daily necessities no longer need to be provided for free, and shops can be built. If you sell it to the people, you can recover the silver."

"In general, this is a long-term plan. It can only be presented in writing for now, and there may be many omissions." Ying Yi said, sighing slightly: "After all, there are not enough people."

Finally, Ying Yi thought about it for a moment and said to the scholar: "Mr. Zheng has experience and talent. If you don't understand what I'm talking about today, or if you encounter problems when doing things, you can ask him for advice."

Sun Xiucai couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "That's what your Excellency said."

At this moment, a cry came from outside the cave: "Brother Ying, little brother Ying!"

That voice that sounds like a drake's throat, who is it if it's not Wang Zhongguan?

Ying Yi smiled and said to Sun Xiucai, "Go and do your thing."

Then they saw Wang Zhongguan rushing in from outside the cave. Seeing his happy face, he must have encountered something good.

Sun Xiucai and Lian Biao bowed to Wang Zhongguan and left the cave.

Wang Zhongguan laughed loudly and took out a small furry thing from his arms, and said happily: "Brother Ying, look!"

Ying Yi was stunned and couldn't help but take a closer look: "Oh, the lieutenant is so awesome!"

He gave a thumbs up: "The king of the mountain was arrested by the Zhongguan!"

It turned out to be a tiger cub.

Wang Zhongguan smiled happily: "No! Our family is very lucky today. We went into the mountains with Hu Miao and saw a mountain king. We finally killed him with a baby. We thought this baby was quite cute, so we brought him back. ”

Ying Yi was startled: "Did you really kill a mountain king?"

It turns out that he had been a frequent visitor to the mountains before, but he had never encountered a tiger. Unexpectedly, Wang Zhongguan went into the mountain and not only killed the tiger, but also took away the cubs.

"Here, I'll give it to you." Zhongguan Wang threw the tiger cub away and said with a smile, "We can't feed a cub without eggs."

Ying Yi was startled: "What are you saying, Zhongguan? After all the hard work, I don't dare to take advantage of Zhongguan's favor."

It must be returned to the Zhongguan.

Wang Zhongguan waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no. Our family will always go back to the capital. It's not a big deal to have a tiger boy with you."

Ying Yi thought it right and couldn't help but sigh: "The Zhongguan is going back to the capital. I'm also very busy here and I don't have time to take care of this little thing."

"Then let's just kill it." Zhongguan said, "At least it's a few kilograms, and it can be stewed for a meal."

Ying Yi laughed: "Zhongguan didn't kill it before, that's his blessing. Since he is blessed, he should keep it first, and he can't sway Zhongguan's good intentions."

Wang Zhongguan laughed loudly.

Then he changed his voice and asked: "I don't know what the situation is outside the mountain right now. Our family is waiting every day with great anxiety. I'm afraid Long Live Lord doesn't know how anxious it is."

He sighed again and again.

Ying Yi said: "Commander, don't be anxious. I will take people out tomorrow. As soon as there is any news, I will inform you immediately."

"That's perfect." Wang Zhongguan breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't look at our family hunting and playing all day long, but it feels really uncomfortable."

Ying Yi smiled secretly, nodding his head with deep understanding on his face.

Then I heard Wang Zhongguan say: "The Lord Zheng has been missing all day and is hiding in a cave. He is not a good person to our family. It's a good thing that you were there to help him, otherwise he would have been killed by the bandits."

Ying Yi was startled and couldn't help but wonder, was this testing him?

Zheng Yunzhi has been put under house arrest by him, and it seems that Zhongguan Wang has seen some clues.

Ying Yi said: "The county magistrate is very busy now. There are more than 20,000 people in the valley, eating, drinking, and having diarrhea, and they have endless things to do. Even though the county magistrate has been missing all day long, he is still thinking about the overall situation."

Zhongguan Wang sneered: "The overall situation? What Long Live Master considers is the overall situation. He is just a county magistrate, what the heck."

"Forget it." He waved his hand: "Our family is just waiting for your good news."

That night, Ying Yi didn't sleep for half the night.

I was thinking about all kinds of things in my mind, sorting out the mess again and again. Thinking of the wandering thieves outside the mountain, thinking of a tiger, thinking of the people in the valley, and thinking of myself, I felt like there were so many things.

The next day, it was bright and clear, and Ying got up the next day.

From a distance, I saw several people walking and punching on the cliff opposite. It turned out to be Zheng Wu, Zheng Liu, and Zheng Jiu.

To be honest, Ying Yi is still a little embarrassed when facing them now. After all, what he did was not very kind. However, Ying Yi felt no guilt in his heart. He just did what he thought he should do. Zheng Yunzhi originally asked him to practice martial arts and literature, but now it is not easy for him to see Zheng Yunzhi.

Now seeing Zheng Wusan practicing martial arts on the top of the mountain, he couldn't help but look at them quietly.
