Chapter 111: Internal Meeting
Xiao Cheng is back, and the regular meeting that happens every ten days can finally be held normally again.
The Weming Department was completely destroyed, and Shentang Fort could finally begin its large-scale expansion with confidence and boldness.
This three-room large tile-roofed house with a courtyard in the best location was the first to be erected and was prepared for Xiao Ding's family. However, it was occupied by Xiao Cheng in advance.
Snow is falling outside the house, but inside the house is as warm as spring. The ground dragon is burning so warmly that no one can wear their thick leather jackets.
"Tell me one by one!" At the top of the long table, Xiao Cheng saw two prepared pen stickers and knocked on the table.
This is the rule set by Xiao Cheng.
There is a meeting every ten days. Any problems are raised directly at the meeting. If they can be solved on the spot, they will be solved immediately. If they cannot be solved on the spot, the relevant departments and relevant manpower involved will be coordinated.
"Too few doctors!" Chen Qiao was the first to stand up and said. "The weather is getting colder and colder, and there are more and more patients with frostbite and other types of diseases, especially those prisoners of the Weiming tribe. Now several of them die every day.
.Although he is a prisoner, he still has a life. To die like this would be a bit..."
"We have tried our best to invite all the doctors from the surrounding areas, including many witch doctors from various party departments!" Luo Gang spread his hands and said: "But there is no way, there are only so many people, what is needed
It is difficult to collect all kinds of medicinal herbs at once, and you need to go to Yan'an Prefecture or even Jingzhao Prefecture to buy them, which takes time."
"The prisoners of the Weiming tribe are also our rare property. We still need to take good care of our own property." Xiao Cheng said: "Of course we still have to do the work, but in terms of food, clothing, housing, etc., we can improve their conditions.
Divide them into groups again and do different things according to different physical conditions to minimize unnecessary attrition. In addition, more medicinal materials should be prepared. The doctor should try his best to find a way. We here want to attract people at once
It is unlikely that a good doctor will come to you."
Zhu Laoyao continued: "According to the current progress, when the main force of Guangrui Army arrives, the house should be basically completed. Now we have allocated some manpower to start building stoves and making fire pits in the house, and the carpentry team has also begun to build
If we make some tables, chairs and benches in batches, we won’t be able to talk about their beauty, but they can be used anyway.”
Xiao Cheng nodded: "We still need to store a large amount of pebbles, charcoal and other things. These things can be purchased from the tribes in Hengshan. They usually make charcoal themselves, and things like pebbles are not rare here.
Look around to see if there are any open-pit ones that are easy to mine."
The youngest Zhu took a small notebook and wrote it down one by one, nodding in agreement.
Luo Gang took a look around and then said: "Although the market has only been running for less than a month so far, overall, it is still stable. We have collected money from both ends. When we enter the market, we have to collect money.
Fees and corresponding taxes, and at the same time, we can make a fortune by trading our goods with them inside. Overall, in this first month, we made a net profit of about 10,000 yuan."
Looking at the calm faces of everyone, Luo Gang became a little anxious: "Don't underestimate this Wan Guan. The main reason is that the operation has just started, the goods are small, and it is not large-scale. Many people are only doing transactions tentatively.
Basically, none of the merchants from the Song Dynasty behind us have taken the initiative to come over. Only our own caravan is doing this. But even so, we have made 10,000 guan. After one year, that is 100,000 guan. According to reports
I estimate that if everything develops normally, 30,000 to 50,000 yuan a month should be no problem in the future. Maintaining this profit, Guangrui Army's military expenses will be more than enough in the future."
Xiao Cheng smiled and said: "We all see Yu Ting's efforts. We are very satisfied with the results of the market now. Trading is a place where exchanges are made in detail, and reputation also requires long-term operation and maintenance.
Only when we can establish it, we believe that it will get better and better in the future. Maybe next year or the year after that, there will be a profit of 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a month."
Luo Gang's words made Luo Gang smile. The hard work he had put in during this period of time suddenly turned into light smoke and flew away. He felt that his body was a little lighter.
On the other side, there is a man who is not very familiar to everyone. He is wearing an old sheepskin jacket and a big felt hat. The two long hat ears are hanging down, which covers most of his face. This man always
He only appeared in the camp once every ten days and a half. Everyone knew that there was such a person, but they didn't know what he was doing. Anyway, every time he came back, he would go to see Xiao Cheng.
"Dingbian City has not been very peaceful recently. Miao Shou and his son were still jumping up and down at first, but after the Weiming tribe was completely destroyed by us, he disappeared. Now the father and son actually started to attack Ding
The family property in the border town is transferred to Yan'an Prefecture and other places. According to my observation, there are always three to five cars traveling every day. The father and son are very rich." After saying this, the man smiled and stuck out his tongue to lick
Licking his lower lip, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill.
"Miao Shou and his son were already frightened. Miao Shou had already submitted his resignation to Envoy Ma and begged to be relieved and returned home. However, Envoy Ma was detained. He probably wanted to wait until his eldest brother came. Since this man had already decided to quit, he didn't want to
If he is in trouble with us, then we are not doing anything wrong for ourselves. There is no need to chase him and chop him down. Although this man is covered in pigtails, if you grab just one of them, he will be killed. But after all, this man is in the northwest.
Colleagues, there are many friends and relatives between superiors and subordinates, and there are many people who have benefited from him inside and outside the officialdom. If you touch one of them, you will inevitably harm many other people. So, weighing the benefits and benefits, let’s treat this person as a
Come on! Without the father and son, there will be basically no resistance to the subsequent rectification of the Dingbian Army. Or to put it another way, there will be someone to deal with this person, and there is no need for us to take the lead. Go on!
"Xiao Cheng raised his finger and pointed at the woolen jacket.
"Miao Shou's actions could not be hidden from the officers under his command. Therefore, the officers under his command naturally panicked and began to work out their own ways. They were all thinking of ways to transfer outside, even to the Xiang army. It didn't matter.
The soldiers don't care, for them, they are just serving as soldiers to eat food, but without the restraint of the officers, the security of the border town is now a big problem, and many young people take the opportunity to commit crimes."
"These criminals, please take a small notebook and write it down. Then we will settle the accounts together." Xiao Cheng said: "It seems that I will go to see our comfort envoy later. I'm sure
If those officers of the border army want to leave, please ask the envoys to open the door for us to take them away."
Everyone laughed.
Now that the officers have been taken away, the rest can be easily manipulated.
Basically, the Dingbian Army, including Xiao Cheng, did not have much confidence in them. They only saw that the tallest among the shortest were the tallest, and only as many as they could pick.
As for the military power, what Xiao Cheng really has high hopes for is the main force of the Guangrui Army that is about to arrive, and the Iron Kites that he is about to establish. As for the local troops and horses, I am afraid it will take a while, and after slowly training, they will be ready.
Only after cultivating it bit by bit can it be put to great use.
It took several years for Xiao Ding to build the Guangrui Army, with troops in front and behind.
Xiao Cheng's eyes turned to Xin Jian.
"In the battle to destroy the Weiming tribe, Li Du finally escaped. We have been worried that Li Xu would react too much and bring an army to retaliate!" Xin Jian said: "But now it seems that we still overestimated this person.
, so far, there is no news or sign that Li Xu will send troops to Hengshan. It seems that firstly, the weather has made him reluctant to send troops on a large scale in this season, and secondly, the attitude of the tribes in Hengshan
, and it also made him dare not take action easily. Once he desperately stepped into Hengshan and was attacked by the Hengshan tribes, his people would not be able to get out of Hengshan. I believe that Xiao Xianxing, the Renduo tribe, and the Tuoba tribe
The news of the patriarch’s interview must have reached this person’s ears.”
"That should be the case!" Xiao Cheng nodded: "But you still can't be careless."
"Yes, although it seems that there is no danger for the time being, we still send a large number of scouts to the direction of the distress army. As long as the distress army takes action, we will definitely know it as soon as possible and make necessary responses."
Xin Jian said.
"The longer the time goes, the less chance he will have." Xiao Cheng laughed softly: "In three days, we will start to select Iron Kites. Xin Jian, He Zheng, you also have to participate, your
My subordinates should participate more and see how many of them can meet the standards I set."
"Erlang, didn't the Tuoba and Renduo tribes promise to send five hundred horses each?" Xin Jian asked.
"He said he would send five hundred cavalry, but I didn't say he wanted all five hundred cavalry. If he can't pass the test, he would be sent back." Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "If he wants face, then find some stronger ones."
Send it to me. Youngest Zhu, have all ten sets of armor made by the blacksmith team been completed?"
Zhu Laoyao nodded and said: "It's all finished. But Erlang, if you have to build three thousand sets of such armor, you won't be able to make it in just a few years."
"It doesn't matter. When the time comes, the Dingbian Army will be able to get a few hundred sets, right? If Xiang Ma comforts the envoy to cry for poverty, the crying child will have milk. If the time comes, there will be a few hundred sets, and it won't be possible.
That's the problem. This way, half of it is put together first. Let's make the rest by ourselves while thinking of other ways to put it together! A can definitely get it together, Ma. We should be able to get it together now too.
, the rest is to keep a tight check on people, we will not accept those who are not qualified. Xin Jian, He Zheng, tell your subordinates, I don’t care if they are old brothers or not, if they cannot meet the requirements,
Chapter completed!
