Chapter 120 Quanzhen Golden Elixir
"This minister sent someone to beg for the Quanzhen Gold Elixir from Quanzhen Sect Changchunzi Qiu Chuji. It is said that it has the ability to nourish the golden body and prolong life. It is specially dedicated to Your Majesty."

Who doesn't want to live a long life, Ning Zong heard that it was Qiu Chuji, his eyes lit up, and he quickly glanced at Murongying.

Dissatisfaction flashed across Murongying's eyes, but she had no choice but to step forward and take the box.

He brought it in front of the emperor, and the emperor opened the box, and sure enough, he smelled a scent of pills. There were three porcelain vases in the box, which were so well made that they didn't look like ordinary things.

He picked up a porcelain vase, and saw a picture engraved on it, under a snow-capped mountain, two people were sitting on the ground.

Ning Zong said: "I heard that in the 13th year of Jiading, Qiu Chuji went to the Western Regions at the age of more than 70 years, met Temujin, and realized the meeting of dragon and horse (Tiemuzhen is a dragon, Qiu Chuji is a horse), is this true?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true. The Daoist Master Changchun is so profound that even Temujin asked him for advice on the way of longevity."

At this time, Temujin had long been called Genghis Khan, but whether it was the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty or the ministers and workers, they were still called Temujin to look down on the barbarians.

Qiu Chuji's name was very famous in the Southern Song Dynasty at this time, and Genghis Khan specially invited him to meet him to discuss the way of governing the country and keeping in good health. Ningzong was very happy to hear that the golden elixir was Qiu Chuji's mechanism.

"Okay, okay, okay, the prime minister has a heart."

Shi Miyuan lowered his head with a smile on his face.

A few days after Shi Miyuan entered the palace, the newborn little prince suddenly died violently, and the unlucky Ningzong lost his beloved son again.

In the last ten days of January, Zhao and Rui lingered, very reluctantly, dragging their family and a huge team of hundreds of people, under the lonely eyes of Ningzong, they were about to leave the capital for Qingyuan Mansion.

Ning Zong's body also suddenly deteriorated, and he took the golden elixir presented by Shi Miyuan every day, entrusting the golden elixir to cure his illness.

Xinzhou mine.

Jiading 16th New Year.

Rows of miners stood upright, most of them were team leaders and deputy team leaders. Although their clothes were still shabby, their spirits were much better than before. After Zhao Yurui took over the management, food and The wages are much higher than before, and every ten days they take turns to rest and take vacations, so after two months, everyone's energy has improved a lot.

Many people looked like refugees before, but now their faces are rosy.

The young Quan Yong stood at the front, with Qin Dong, Shi Gou'er, Qian Wu and others standing beside him behind him.

From October last year to the present, after more than two months, the entire mine started to work and recruit people at the same time according to Zhao Yurui's requirements. Finally, [-] households were recruited, including [-] miners, and [-] miners. There are three thousand households with money.

Because Zhao and Rui were treated so well and the food was good, from Xinzhou to all directions, people from all the nearby prefectures came to seek refuge, so that in the end it was overcrowded, so they stopped quickly.

But Quan Yong remembered Zhao Yurui's words, there must be survival of the fittest, otherwise some people will not work seriously with their wages.

"Come here." At this moment, Quan Yong looked serious and waved his hands back.

Qin Dong immediately stepped forward and took out a piece of paper: "The team leader I am reporting to go forward."

"6 groups, 8 groups, 19 groups——"

Following his announcement, the team leaders stepped forward one by one and stood in a group. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

After reporting a total of [-] groups, Qin Dong said loudly: "In the past two months, these [-] groups have had the highest output and the greatest effect. According to the requirements of the big shopkeeper, each group leader will be rewarded with five coins at the end of the year. Long three guans, and each group will reward two guans."

"Send money."

Following Qin Dong's final yell, Wow, a large cart behind the scene was pushed in front of everyone, and then fell to the ground, and piles of copper coins fell on the ground in strings. All light.

Many team members who did not report showed various envious expressions on their faces.

Then each group stepped forward to collect the money, and when they got the money, everyone shouted: "Thank you, big shopkeeper."

As for who the shopkeeper is, no one knows.

But when everyone called out, they were all sincere and willing.

It took nearly half an hour for this round of money distribution.

Then Qin Dong stepped forward again: "My team leader, go forward."

"2 groups, 5 groups, 23 groups--"

These group leaders stepped forward happily, thinking that they were going to give out money again.

"You groups, the output is extremely low, the bottom [-]. Next month, the team leaders and deputy team leaders of each team will deduct their regular wages, and each household will deduct another [-] yuan, and the team leader and deputy team leader will be removed. Re-select."

"In your group, vote yourself. Whoever doesn't work hard will be kicked out of the mine."

"Each group drives out five households first."

Ah, there was an exclamation at the scene, and then someone yelled: "Wang Pizi, that bastard, told him to work hard and be lazy every day, he killed him."

"My surname is Li, your mother has become a team leader, so why don't you work by yourself, harming our whole team?"

Immediately there was a quarrel at the scene. Some team leaders blamed the subordinates for not working well, and some deputy team leaders scolded the team leader for quitting, cheating and being lazy.

Everyone was arguing, and they were about to fight.

"Clatter clatter" suddenly came the sound of running in the distance.

When everyone turned their heads, they saw a strong team trotting forward with sharpened wooden sticks in their hands. The team was neat and well-mannered, like an army.

The scene suddenly became silent, and everyone's faces showed horror.

"Group 2 comes first, vote for five households." Qin Dong said sharply: "The two leaders of Group [-], go back with Qian Wu to vote, and there will be rewards for reporting."

So under their supervision, 2 groups of [-] households first voted for the worst-performing five households.

It doesn't matter whether these five households are the worst, whoever wants to be lazy in the future must think about today's scene.

Someone at the scene yelled that they were wronged, but it was useless. The whole family was immediately kicked out of the mine and the contract was torn off.

Because they have more than 5 households, and 300 households gather in the morning and afternoon each day. There are only the team and deputy team leaders on site, and then the rewards that should be rewarded, and the processing that should be dealt with. There are more than [-] households, and a large number of new team leaders and deputy team leaders have been replaced.

After Quan Yong's actions, no one in the following groups dared to steal, rape and cheat. Anyone who dared not do a good job would be reported immediately, and the whole family would hate him to the bone, and voted to expel him.

In late January, there were several piers outside Lin'an City, the largest one outside the city in the north, and it was also the boarding point for Zhao and Rui's party to go to Qingyuan Mansion.

At this time, people were coming and going on the pier, and a large number of teenagers and female envoys in black uniforms were carrying things.

It doesn't matter that Zhao Yurui and Wei Wangfu have a lot of people, and they also have a lot of property. In just half a year in Lin'an, Zhao Yurui's net worth is already hundreds of thousands. In terms of earning ability, it is estimated that no one in the Southern Song Dynasty can match it.

After becoming the prince, plus outsourcing, the treatment of Zhao and Rui rose sharply. In addition to their due salary, they also had 100 pieces of small silk for spring and winter clothes, [-] pieces of silk each, three pieces of spring silk, and [-] pieces of winter cotton. two.

In addition, there are 150 shi of grain per month (it may be fields in the Song Dynasty, and if there is no land, it will be converted into grain shi and distributed every month. You have to go to Qingyuan Mansion to see the details), and [-] people with you.

In other words, after he was contracted out, and with his status as a prince, he could already bring 150 soldiers.

But to be honest, the feudal king of the Southern Song Dynasty was outsourced and was the top military and political leader in the local area. He could only bring 150 personal soldiers. In fact, it was quite small, and sometimes it was far from enough.

But for the current Zhao Yurui, it was not easy, and they were finally able to organize a team of their own soldiers openly and aboveboard.

Before leaving Beijing, he recruited Li Pingxia as the deputy commander of the infantry battalion of the Prince of Wei's Mansion (the first battalion of the Song Army consists of five divisions or five capitals, each of which is a general, and each is a capital, and each capital has a hundred people).

Li Pinghu, a member of his family, still stayed in the imperial army and did not follow.

Zhou Lai is the head of the capital and the general of the first team. (Each team has two bets, one bet of 25 people, one team of 50 people.)
Niu Bao is the deputy head of the first capital and the captain of the second team.

Li Pingshan is the head of the two capitals and the general of the third team.

Li Pingbao is the deputy capital of Erdu.

In addition, the deputy generals, the deputy generals of each team, as well as the left and right flags, Yazheng, ten generals, and corps commanders are all young men trained by Zhao Yurui.

When he left Beijing, he asked Ningzong for a large number of military officer positions and promoted a group of his own people.

But now he doesn't have enough soldiers. In addition to those who stay in the Xinzhou Copper Mine, there are less than 50 people in the whole mansion. Therefore, after arriving in Qingyuan mansion, he still needs to be recruited.

He already has an extra team in the Prince Wei's mansion, which is currently under the establishment of the Guards and Infantry Division of the Imperial Army, and will report to the Guards and Infantry Division after the staff is ready.

Because there were too many things, everyone was moving their belongings and other things onto the boat. Zhao Yurui stood on the shore, looking at the south street from time to time.

After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, suddenly a carriage slowly appeared in the distance, and the person driving the carriage was none other than Ji Hu'er, the deputy captain.

Zhao Yurui was overjoyed, and hurried over, the carriage stopped on the shore, Ji Huer paid a visit to Zhao Yurui, and then hurried forward.

Zhao Yurui stepped forward and lifted the curtain.

There was a scent in the carriage, and the shopkeeper of Café de Coral, Zhou Qiong, was sitting in it with her maid, Chu Chu. This time, Zhao Yurui persuaded Zhou Qiong to go to Qingyuan Mansion as well, and continue to open a branch in Qingyuan Mansion for him.

Zhou Qiong blushed: "After Chuchu and I leave, what will everyone do?"

"I'll let Ji Hu'er tell Mother Wang about everyone's joy, and I won't treat her badly."

"Mother Wang is trustworthy."

Zhou Qiong's face straightened slightly: "Wei Wang is right, Mother Wang is trustworthy."

Zhou Qiong got out of the carriage soon, and brought Chuchu to the pier. Zhao Yurui called Ji Huer over. Zhou Qiong and Ji Huer explained some things, and Ji Huer went to everyone for fun.

Ji Hu'er was appointed as the deputy commander of the Imperial Army and received his salary, but Zhao Yurui mainly asked him to set up a contact point in Lin'an to contact people and things here.

When Zhou Qiong boarded the boat, the things on the shore were almost moved. The boat will sail forward in a while, and Zhao and Rui will stay on the other boat.

This time they went from Lin'an to Qingyuan Mansion, they will first go to Shaoxing by sea road, then continue along the coastal road to Dinghai County, and then go back to Qingyuan Mansion.

The imperial court dispatched seven large ships to Zhao and Ruizheng, two Fuzhou ships, two Hayfalcon warships, three vehicles and ships, and the smallest one had [-] materials.

Shi Miyuan had just helped Zhao Yurui transfer the Dinghai Navy from Xupu. Zhao Yurui attached great importance to it and decided to go to Dinghai County first to settle the navy affairs, and then go to Qingyuan Mansion later.
