Jin Feng put away the box and smiled at the Ninth Princess.
He knew that he must have accomplished something by assisting the Ninth Princess in annihilating the invading enemies.
However, this kind of matter involving interests has always been the hardest hit area of party disputes in the court. If the main war faction and the main war faction and the main war faction do not argue for a month or two, there will be no results.
But in just a few days, he had obtained the tiger talisman, which meant that the Ninth Princess must have used the backup force left in the capital.
"My husband has done what he promised Wuyang, and Wuyang will naturally do what he promised him!"
The Ninth Princess said: "It's just that the other rewards are still being discussed by the court, and it is estimated that it will take some time to come down."
Jin Feng guessed right. She had worked hard to get this spot.
Although she had already obtained a place in the second-class army, knowing that the Ninth Princess wanted to give this army to Jin Feng naturally aroused unanimous opposition from the Lord Harmony Faction.
Just kidding, Jin Feng only has one escort agency in his hands, and he is making such a big fuss. If he is given a second-class army, what will happen to him?
The Ninth Princess and the Qing family have sacrificed a lot of interests, and Chen Ji has recently been a little fooled by the Ninth Princess's battle report, so this matter can be accomplished.
As for other rewards, such as fiefs, titles, money, etc., the Ninth Princess knew that Jin Feng didn't care, so she didn't fight for them until the court had enough quarrels.
On the other hand, the qualification to build monuments did not involve much interest for the courtiers, and they were easily obtained.
"What are you going to name this team, sir?"
Ninth Princess asked with a smile: "Just pick a good name and it can be engraved."
"Let's call it Zhenyuan Army." Jin Feng thought for a moment and replied.
"Zhenyuan, it can shock people far away, it's pretty good."
The Ninth Princess nodded slightly: "By the way, sir, there is something else I forgot to tell you."
"What's the matter?" Jin Feng asked.
"that is……"
The Ninth Princess was a little embarrassed and said: "Although the Ministry of War approved the quota, the Ministry of War said that the Ministry of Household Affairs did not allocate money and food for the Zhenyuan Army, so... So in the first few months, you may need to advance the military salary yourself."
"I……"
Jin Feng wanted to curse at that moment.
When others become generals, they embezzle military pay and rations, and they all become fat and fat.
When I got here, not only was I greedy, but I also had to give money to advance military pay.
This is the difference between having foundation and not having foundation.
Other dandy generals are deeply entrenched. Even if no one in their family is an official in the court, there are some among their relatives.
The only people Jin Feng can rely on are the Ninth Princess and Duke Qing.
The Ninth Princess could only hide behind the scenes. He and Qing Guo Gong were not familiar with each other. The two parties only had pure interests. Naturally, Qing Guo Gong would not go out of his way to help him.
"Wuyang has not handled this matter well. I will find a way to urge the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War to allocate money and food as soon as possible."
The Ninth Princess also felt a little embarrassed.
"No need, it's just an army. If it doesn't work, I'll let them all go to suppress bandits, or work part-time as bodyguards. No matter what, they can make a living."
Jin Feng shook his head.
The reason why the Ninth Princess stayed in the capital was, to put it bluntly, the people she cultivated during her stay in the capital, or the favors she left behind, or the leverage she gained from certain ministers.
Use a little less for both favors and handles, and good steel should be used on the blade.
For a little money, Jin Feng felt it was a pity to use it up.
Jiangnan has always been prosperous, and it has always been the place with the most fireworks and willow alleys.
Soap is very popular in Jiangnan, and the supply in many stores exceeds demand. If you deliver it today, you don't have to wait until it is sold out tomorrow.
Some branches have also begun to collect prepayments, and you have to pay in advance to get the soap.
Even though he spent a lot of money to buy food, Jin Feng made a lot of money every day.
Jin Feng wanted a quota in the army just to legalize his equipment and weapons, not because of greed for money and money.
That's too low-end, and he really doesn't like it.
"Your Highness, now that the war is over, what are your plans?"
Jin Feng handed the box to Da Liu and looked at the Ninth Princess.
"I want to go to Xihewan. Sir, do you agree?" Ninth Princess asked with a smile.
"Of course I welcome you, but can Your Highness go?" Jin Feng glanced at her sideways.
"Sure enough, sir, I saw it," the Ninth Princess whispered: "Although this battle is over, who knows whether Gada will bring people to take revenge? Moreover, the main faction in the court has not given up and is still making trouble.
So I guess I’ll have to stay in Xichuan for a while longer.”
"No, we have all won the battle, so why are the Lord and the faction making such a fuss? What are they trying to do!"
Da Liu complained.
In fact, when Jin Feng was talking to the Ninth Princess, he, as a guard, was not qualified to interrupt.
But he couldn't bear it anymore.
After saying that, he realized that he had overstepped his bounds, and quickly lowered his head: "Your Highness, sir, I'm sorry, I talked too much!"
Jin Feng had no sense of hierarchy and replied with a smile: "Just ask if you don't understand. It's good."
"Then what do they want?" Da Liu scratched his head and asked, "What good does it do to them if Dakang is bullied?"
"In the final analysis, it is still for profit."
Jin Feng said: "There were two caravans passing by the official road some time ago. You should have seen them, right?"
"I saw it," Da Liu nodded.
"In fact, there has always been trade between Dakang and Dangxiang, Khitan, and Tubo. Our ironware, salt, porcelain, cloth, wine, tea and other things are very popular in the grasslands and plateaus.
Caravans carrying these things can exchange them for a large number of cattle and sheep, and can earn several times the profit by reselling them.
The money the Dakang caravan makes every year from Dangxiang and Khitan should be much more than the annual tribute paid by the imperial court!"
Jin Feng said: "There is no one with a big family background behind these caravans. If a fight breaks out, wouldn't their financial path be cut off?"
"So that's it!"
Da Liu suddenly understood, then gritted his teeth and said: "Sir, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Even if they want to make money, they can't do this, right?"
Jin Feng was about to continue talking when he suddenly saw the Ninth Princess, waved his hand and said: "Your Highness, I am going to say something treasonous, please step aside first."
"Sir, you have already pointed at me and scolded me. You said that your father will not give you face even when he comes. Are there any other treasonous words that I cannot listen to?"
The Ninth Princess rolled her eyes at Jin Feng angrily: "In your eyes, sir, am I such a stingy person?"
She was deeply impressed when Jin Feng pointed at her nose and scolded her that day.
The Ninth Princess was very wronged at that time, and no one had ever scolded her like that since she was a child.
But when I thought about it later, I realized that maybe it was only then that Jin Feng truly regarded her as one of his own.
"Then I said it?" Jin Feng asked tentatively.
"Tell me, I also want to hear what your husband thinks of this matter." Ninth Princess joked: "Even if you call my father a fool, I will admit it."
