Chapter 193 It's a good plan

If Xiao Yunming's bastard followed him with a sneer, he would break that guy's three legs!
Huo Jinyi tilted his head in doubt: "I don't know, I just think the voice is familiar, a bit like... a bit like the person who helped me at the Fifth Prince's Mansion that day."

It's a pity that the crowd had already dispersed. Seeing Huo Jinhe's annoyed face, Huo Jinyi hurriedly patted him: "It's okay, maybe I heard wrong, let's go, I'm almost starving."

After them, another gentleman with outstanding temperament also went upstairs waving a folding fan: "Please trouble me, Zhuyuan."

"First order a portion of Gu Fang Man Yuan, a portion of Lu Zuo Su Tai, and the rest are up to you. Four dishes and one soup are all you need, and you can eat meat or vegetables."

Hey, Xiaochun gasped - just the first two dishes cost 50 taels!
This regular customer is really generous every time he comes!

Jinxiu twitched her brows after hearing this: "Go and do it first, I'll take a look later."

With such an order, could Yingge have something to do with her?
It happened that she also wanted to chat with Yingge, and it was not easy to get rid of Xiao Yunzhi to go out, so she had to explain the recent things that needed to be explained clearly at once.

Regular customers, especially big customers, came to the door. It was understandable for the owner to go to thank him. The guys in the restaurant didn't think much about it, and Ye Xun and Ye Xing who were arranged by Xiao Yunzhi naturally didn't take it seriously.

Jinxiu walked into the private room in Zhuyuan and closed the door behind her.

Yingge's tense handsome face turned, and his eyes turned red when he saw it.

Jinxiu felt quite a headache: "I didn't abandon you, and I didn't intend not to go back, but it's not possible yet."

Yingge, who was blocked from asking questions: ...Hmph!

The redness in his eyes was suppressed instantly, and Zhang Wanniang turned her eyes white and took out a secret letter from her sleeve.

"Here, the fifth prince you want to hear about."

"He didn't know what he was thinking. He actually planned to ask the emperor to go to the border, and he also planned to propose that in addition to the military salary, some silver should be added to reward the three armies."

Jinxiu was puzzled: "The severe drought in southern Shandong has to cause the national treasury to bleed once. How could the emperor agree to such a request?"

While speaking, she opened the envelope and unfolded the letter paper with the message inside, which said——

Xiao Yunming planned to initiate a fundraiser, and use the money raised to help Lunan, and the silver taels originally allocated by the imperial court for disaster relief were sent to the border to reward the soldiers who had stayed there for five years, and by the way, to boost morale, so that better In response to the barbarian attack at the end of the year.

Every year when the deep winter is approaching, the biting cold wind at the border will cut people's skin more and more. The harsh climate of the barbarians is not suitable for the growth of crops. Half of the four seasons have to rely on plundering for a living. This is especially fierce in the New Year. .

The winter of the barbarians is accompanied by non-stop heavy snow. From the beginning of the first snowfall, a five- or six-year-old child can be covered in snow within a few days.

It is not an exaggeration to say that there is no grass in that environment.

The barbarians were born in such a harsh environment since they were young, and all of them have developed a wolf-like temperament.

In order to survive, burning, killing and looting are commonplace.

I am very hungry, and it is not unheard of to put people on the border directly as prey on the grill.

In order to guard the boundary of the border, the soldiers tied their heads to their waistbands almost every day to die.

In addition to visiting relatives, Huo Jinhe returned to Beijing this time to report to the emperor the problem of insufficient military rations and other supplies.

Rewarding the three armies can show the imperial court's importance and gratitude to the soldiers. While replenishing military resources, it can also boost morale. It is indeed the best of both worlds.

As long as there is no problem with the supplies, those who go to reward the army will definitely be favored by all the soldiers!
Xiao Yunming is very calculating!
