In the early morning, the soft sun shines across the mountains, dispelling the cold dew at night, and forms colorful rainbow walls on the undulating hills, which are very beautiful!

On the school ground, five hundred new recruits stood straight. After several days of training, they had begun to slowly adapt to Liu Ruyi's training intensity and understood that "there will not be a pie in the sky." It was not as easy to eat Lord Liu's meal as imagined!

Under the martial arts stage, a few big Luo baskets made of mahjong were placed, and there were orange pieces inside, with silver light flashing. I went up to take a look, and I was afraid there would be no less than a thousand taels of silver!

Today is the day when Liu Ruyi pays the settlement fee to these new recruits!

Although the expenses are very high at the moment and cost money in many aspects, Liu Ruyi is a very pragmatic person. "If you want a horse to run, you must first let the horse eat enough." After experiencing various strange baptisms in later generations, Liu Ruyi's heart is naturally enlightened! Instead of spending a lot of money and doing face-saving projects that are meaningless, it is far better to let these military men get their own benefits!

Caishi Town is in a mess, and it also requires some extra money from the military households to better stimulate the development of all aspects. ‘Use it for the people and take it from the people’, this is the long-term solution!

Five hundred new soldiers were divided into five columns, and under the leadership of their respective team leaders, they walked towards the martial arts stage in an orderly manner, because Liu Ruyi had to personally distribute these silver to the hands of each soldier. Although Liu Ruyi would add a lot of burden to this, everything seemed insignificant compared to the rewards he received!

"Hold it, this is yours! Do it well!" Liu Ruyi picked up two taels of silver, handed it to a new recruit army man, and patted his shoulder with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Liu! Thank you, Mr. Liu!"

The military man's face was flushed and he took the silver tremblingly, but tears flowed down unknowingly. He knelt on the ground, "bang, bang, bang, bang", kowtowed seven or eight times in a row, causing bleeding from his forehead.

"Brothers, don't have to be so polite!"

Liu Ruyi smiled and helped him up, but did not reach out when he kowtowed! Some things are said so, but the etiquette system that should be had is not enough. Otherwise, how could Liu Ruyi form an army?

"Good man, why are you crying?"

Liu Ruyi smiled and punched the military man in the chest, "Practice well, don't lose someone! When you make military achievements in the future, you will get more merits and reward money, so that you can let your wife and children live a good life as soon as possible! That will be the best reward for someone!"

"Yes! Master Xie's teachings! The young man will fight hard!" The military man kowtowed to Liu Ruyi a few more times, but his words were full of firmness!

Liu Ruyi waved her hand at him with a smile, "Go down and have a rest, I'm looking forward to your performance!"

In this way, Liu Ruyi, each of the five hundred military men, comforted and encouraged each other, and personally distributed the settlement fee to them.

These tasks are not completed from early morning until noon.

From beginning to end, Liu Ruyi always smiled until her mouth cramped, but she still didn't feel impatient!

If a person’s heart is exchanged, although efforts may not necessarily be rewarded, if you don’t give, there will definitely be no reward!

At this time, on the side of the martial arts stage, there were more than a dozen healthy women carrying several large pots of hot broth and several baskets of thick steamed buns, and placed them in front of the soldiers.

Liu Ruyi has always implemented the "high-voltage" route when training troops!

The ancients said: "A filial son appears under the stick"!

Most of these military men are ignorant of the truth and the way of saints. For them, it is obviously not as effective as sticks and whips!

As the military men gradually got on the right track, the intensity became increasingly greater. Not only did they have to complete five kilometers of off-road every day, but after practicing the queue, they also added weapons to practice. In this way, eating only some porridge will obviously not meet the physical needs of the military men!

At present, although everyone's food can't be consumed regularly and regularly as accurately as in later generations, Liu Ruyi can barely maintain this amount of broth!

"Come on, line up, come one by one!"

The healthy women in charge turned out that most of them were servants in Liu Ruyi's mansion. As the number of military men increased, those people were obviously too busy. So Liu Ruyi selected some people who worked quickly and diligently from the families of local military men, and paid wages and rations every day, which was a disguised solution to some employment pressure, so that they could earn some wages and improve their lives.

The person who was the leader just now was the small flag official. No, he should be the wife of Wu San, deputy logistics manager of Caishi Town, Li Shi, and Li Guihua!

Li Guihua is less than thirty years old and is quite pretty. Unlike Wu San, who is slick and likes to be conscious, she is very arrogant and works quickly. She not only obeys Wu San's clothes, but also has a very prestigious among the military households. She can be regarded as the Ming version of the strong woman.

"Come on, this brother, a bowl of broth and three steamed buns! I can't finish it, but don't take it too much. Don't waste it!" Li Guihua quickly handed the broth and steamed buns to the Junhan in front of her, and shouted loudly to the crowd: "Brothers, after eating, don't forget the great kindness of Lord Liu!"

Her voice was loud and her voice was very nice. The soldiers respected her very much and nodded!

Liu Ruyi stood on the platform and looked at Wu San with a smile, "Brother Wu San, Sister Gui Hua, but it's much more than you!"

Wu San smiled. Just as he was about to praise Haikou, he saw his wife not far from the audience. He suddenly closed his mouth and had to smile embarrassedly!

"San Master, don't you often say, Sister Guihua..." Chunwa has not gotten married yet and does not understand the wonders of men and women. He looked at Wu San, full of doubts!

"You guy, you will know when you marry a wife!" In front of Liu Ruyi, Wu San did not dare to have an attack, but just glared at Chunwa fiercely!

Several officers around were laughing loudly, and Liu Ruyi also smiled slightly, and she felt much more relaxed!

*********************

Time is like a spring with a string tightened. No matter whether you want it to be fast or slow, it will always follow its own pace, slow but never stop!

A few days later, the training of the new recruits and military soldiers has gradually become regular, and the fort walls on all sides of the town are almost completed, leaving only some tiny finishing projects. Liu Ruyi also has time to better think about some of the necessary daily infrastructure in the town.

After all, it is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people! These three or four thousand people are not small. Liu Ruyi can raise them for a while, but not necessarily for a lifetime!

Although Caishi Town is scarce, the mountains also have the benefits of mountains, that is, it is rich in vegetation and many trees. Although it cannot be reclaimed and cultivated land on a large scale, it has unique advantages in developing breeding and animal husbandry!

On the south side of the town, the mountain is relatively flat and the water system is abundant. As long as it is slightly renovated and utilized, it is enough to build some small-scale pig farms, sheep pens, chicken and duck farms, etc.! Develop some mud on the east side and plant some easy-to-farm rice and corn. Although it is not said that the harvest can be achieved, at least self-sufficiency can also alleviate some of Liu Ruyi's financial pressure.

However, there are too few people in the town that can be used, and there are even fewer clerks and officials. Although there are so many troughs in my heart, when I was about to implement it, Liu Ruyi felt that her scalp was numb. She couldn't do everything by herself, right? What's more, Liu Ruyi was not sure about all kinds of farming matters!

On this day, in the newly built small garden in the backyard of Liu Mansion, Liu Ruyi sat opposite Mr. Feng!

It is said to be a small garden, but it is actually a small vegetable garden. Several ancient trees were transplanted from the mountain, and some flowers and plants were planted on both sides. On the rest of the ground, some unknown weeds grew wild grass!

Because Zou was born in Jiangnan, he prefers decorations with the atmosphere of Jiangnan water towns. In the past, he had no ability, so Liu Ruyi could only run around with his mother. Now, the dust is gradually settled, and the mother and son have a solid place to settle down. Liu Ruyi also wants to satisfy his mother's insignificant wish.

‘Filial piety is the first of all virtues!’

Thinking of the first time my mother saw this small garden, she looked as surprised as a little girl, Liu Ruyi's heart was filled with warmth, so she specially invited Mr. Feng to discuss how to transform and build this small garden.

"Ruyi, you are building a small rockery here and planting a bamboo forest there. Don't worry, the old man has no other skills, but these things are experts! Haha!" Mr. Feng smiled and planned the future scene of the small garden.

"I'm working hard, my grandfather! Ruyi is so busy. These things are so good!" Liu Ruyi shook her head powerlessly.

"Haha, it's okay! Young people should be so energetic!"

Mr. Feng picked up a glass of fine wine and sipped it gently, "Ruyi, you are a good child. I don't worry about Qing'er! But don't be too anxious, you have to eat the food one by one! I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!"

After Mr. Feng said that, he glanced at Liu Ruyi meaningfully.

Liu Ruyi was stunned and quickly reacted, and hurriedly bowed to Mr. Feng, "What are the opinions of Mr. Feng? Please give me advice!"

"Haha, it's not a question of high opinion! But, are you thinking about it? The old man has a little bit!" Mr. Feng said with a smile, but his fingers were taken into the wine glass, rubbed the stone tabletop, and wrote two words lightly, "Gold Mine!"

Liu Ruyi suddenly woke up. Why didn’t she expect this?

This gold mine is under his own rule. There are many craftsmen and miners. I heard Li Lianyang mention it before that there are only craftsmen, but there are probably 40 or 50 households. These resources are really more valuable to Liu Ruyi now!

Although craftsmen are not valuable, in the current Ming Dynasty, these people have gradually become private slaves of officers at all levels and become tools for them to make money. Liu Ruyi sent people to Jinan City several times to ask the ward to assign some craftsmen, but they were all suppressed by Yang Yibin, a thousand households. This point of Feng Laozi is undoubtedly like a bright light in the sea of ​​suffering, which clearly pointed out the direction for Liu Ruyi!

What a bad eunuch? Others are afraid of it, but Liu Ruyi doesn’t care!

"You are so wise! Ruyi understands!" Liu Ruyi laughed loudly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all!

"Ruyi, this matter is risky, you still need to be careful!" Mr. Feng gave a worried instructor.

Liu Ruyi nodded, "Good old man, please feel free, I know what I know!"

At this time, Xiao Liuer ran in with a staggering and stuttering, "Young Master, something big happened!"
