Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 116
"Master Wu, be careful!
What is a poor military household?
Speaking of which, aren't we all military households?
This is our brethren!

Let the brethren fight with you, with your head in your belt, fighting the Tartars, fighting the thieves...

After today, I don't know if there will be tomorrow.

Of course they have to eat well. "

Zhao Cheng glanced at Wu Chun with displeasure, with a natural tone.

Wu Chun was choked immediately.

What Zhao Cheng said was too idealistic.

Who doesn't know what Xuanfu Town, and even the whole of Daming, is like?
But he was standing on the moral high ground, and he really couldn't refute it.

Behind them, the following servants stared at the meals and swallowed.

Hearing Zhao Cheng's words warmed my heart even more.

If all officials are like this, they dare to work hard!

They are all great boys, who is worse than whom?
"Brothers in the back, how much food and salary do you guys get for a month? Five taels?"

Looking at the servant's reaction behind him, Zhao Cheng was secretly amused, and asked suddenly.

"Three...three taels. This is what I actually got."

The famous servant Ding said it out of reflex, and then looked at Wu Chun with some unease.

"Three taels, that's a little bit less! Now, frontier guards usually get five taels, right?
There are even higher ones. "

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the treatment of frontier soldiers was extremely low, but the treatment of servants was not low.

Ordinary sergeants, three or five fights a month, are often owed.

But as the most elite servants, this is the confidence of the generals, and their salaries will not be owed.

And the treatment is very good.

Not only is there a cotton armor to wear, but the monthly salary is generally around five taels, or even higher.

Being a servant alone can easily support the whole family.

The servants in the late Ming Dynasty were almost the only ones who dared to go all out.

Fight bandits, fight Tartars...

Almost all rely on servants.

"A lot!"

Wu Chun spoke with some displeasure.

This Zhao Baihu, this is shaking the morale of his subordinates face to face!
"We follow the east city of Shengchuan, we don't directly confront the Tartars, and we pay three taels per yuan, which is to raise soldiers for a thousand days.

I, Wu, think that I have never treated my brothers badly, and my treatment is no lower than that of other colleagues. "

"Ha ha!"

Zhao Cheng smiled lightly.

"That's the problem! Because everyone sucks."

"you……"

Wu Chun stared, and his anger surged up again.

In the end, it was forced down.

Zhao Cheng reached out and patted the servant on the shoulder.

"Brother, do you know how our strong army is treated?

Ordinary sergeants of the Qiangdi Army start with 1000 yuan of food stamps per month.

A small catty in our strong land, a thousand catties is about five stones.

Moreover, the price of food stamps is soaring now, this is a benefit I give to the sergeants in disguise.

You can consider joining our strong land army, our door is always open to you. "

Zhao Cheng distributed food coupons to all his subordinates.

Food stamp prices are skyrocketing now...

This kind of welfare is equivalent to the benefits of soaring housing prices for the aborigines in big cities in later generations.

"Zhao Baihu, how can you do this?"

It was that Qianhu who was in a hurry.

This is poaching in public!

This hoe swings quite well.

Even they were moved.

You can get five stones of grain in a month...

Ten years ago, five shi of grain was equivalent to five taels of silver.

But now, food prices are soaring, and the treatment of servants has not kept up.

Looking at those servants again, they were obviously moved.

"Hahaha! What are the three adults in a hurry?
just kidding!Just kidding! "

Zhao Cheng laughed and covered it up.

However, he took the opportunity to wink at the servants.

The three of Wu Chun were about to explode with anger.

However, there is no way to take Zhao Cheng.

At this moment, there was a sudden singing sound, from far to near, countless voices gathered together, and the voice was loud.

"Just as the pear blossoms are blooming all over the sky, the gentle veil is floating on the river;
Standing on the steep bank, Katyusha sang like a bright spring.

Standing on the steep bank, Katyusha sang like a bright spring.

The girl sang a beautiful song, she was singing about the eagle in the steppe;
She is singing about her beloved, and she is hiding her lover's letters.

She is singing about her beloved, and she is hiding her lover's letters.

O song of the singing girl, fly away with the bright sun;

To the soldiers on the far frontier, convey Katyusha's greetings.

To the soldiers on the far frontier, convey Katyusha's greetings.

The young soldiers stationed at the frontier miss the distant girl in their hearts;

Fighting bravely to defend the motherland, Katyusha's love will always belong to him.

Fighting bravely to defend the motherland, Katyusha's love will always belong to him.

Just as the pear blossoms are blooming all over the sky, the gentle veil is floating on the river;
Katyusha stood on the steep bank, singing like a bright spring.

Katyusha stood on the steep bank, singing like a bright spring. "

The lyrics are beautiful and very hot and bold.

It's more like the style of the southern barbarians.

However, the enunciation is clear and the voice is very nice.

When the singing came here, the sound of neat footsteps came.

Looking out from the bright glass window, one can see groups of sergeants coming in neat lines.

They were all wearing brand-new mandarin duck war jackets, which were bright and fiery red.

Carrying muskets with knives on the barrels...

Cold light.

majestic!

mighty!

When this team came head-on, it gave people a strong sense of oppression.

The boys all held their heads high, confident and singing loudly.

Wu Chun and the others, have they ever seen such a scene?
They have led soldiers all their lives, and their ancestors have been officials of thousands of households for generations.

But the soldiers they saw were just like ordinary military households, like beggars, lifeless, unable to beat a fart with three sticks.

Or they are as rebellious as the servants.

They have never seen soldiers like this before.

"No wonder you can defeat the Tartars!"

Wu Chun murmured and swallowed.

Turning to look at Zhao Cheng, there was really fear in his eyes.

How can this little hundred household officer know how to lead troops?
"Hello sir!"

Seeing Zhao Cheng, these sergeants stood at attention, knocked their feet, swung their right arms, raised their brows high, and saluted.

This etiquette is something that Daming does not have.

However, it can give people a strong sense of shock.

The blood of Wu Chun and the others also warmed up.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Cheng stood at attention and returned a salute.

"Brothers have worked hard!
Let's eat! "

The sergeants all leaned their guns neatly against the wall and put them in units of small flags.

Then, lined up, everyone took a silver plate and started to cook.

"Whose meal shall we eat?"

A strong sergeant shouted from the front of the line.

"Let's eat Master Zhao's meal!"

All the sergeants shouted in unison.

"Who do we listen to?"

the sergeant asked again loudly.

"Let's listen to Master Zhao!"

Hundreds of sergeants, the sound is loud, like thunder, the explosion makes people's blood boil, and the explosion makes people have no time to think about other things.

There is only one thought in my mind:
Eat Master Zhao's meal!

Listen to Master Zhao!
