Except for two children, a family of four sat around a humble table, and then an old father asked, "Dongsheng … Tell us what you really think … Bring back so many cattle and sheep at a time and owe so much foreign debt … Our family finally settled down. Aren’t you afraid that the usury will make us home again, but we can wander outside and starve …"

Three pairs of different eyes stared at Wang Dongsheng’s mouth because of the long-term hard work and the age.
"Mom and dad … and the baby’s mother … I think so … On the surface, we owe the Governor 132 silver, but the Governor is a man who won’t make any interest with us … This foreign debt of 132 silver is still 132 silver when it is owed for another two years …"
See old father face don’t believe expression Wang Dongsheng continued, "you think about us these refugees in addition to this life is there anything that can make the governor’s adult care …"
"If it weren’t for the Governor’s adult, our family might have starved to death and fled the country … where can there be a good day … the Governor’s Office will not only take everyone to wasteland and give everyone silver and food, but also give everyone ten acres of land in a year … so good the Governor’s adult will calculate our villagers …"
"In my eyes, our Governor General is a bodhisattva … not even better than a bodhisattva … I thought that when we were rich, we would set up a longevity card for the Governor General and pray for him every day …"
Wang Dongsheng’s explanation made everyone’s face worry suddenly less.
However, regardless of whether the governor will interest or not, the foreign debt of 132 silver is still
Wang Dongsheng seemed to see what his wife was thinking and continued to analyze, "Because we owe the Governor 132 foreign debts, I promise we can pay them off in two years at most … then these cattle and sheep will be our own …"
"Two years, one hundred and thirty-two silver … Dongsheng, did you burn your head out …" After hearing Wang Dongsheng’s words, his wife had not spoken yet, and his old father had stepped forward with a face of disbelief.
Because I haven’t planted land before …
When I went out when I was a good year, I was grateful that all kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes could really fall into my own hands.
And now sitting in front of him, with a full face of arrogance, told himself that he could earn 132 silver in two years …
One hundred and thirty-two taels of silver is sixty-five taels a year on average …
Before that, it was impossible for me to earn by working hard for half a generation …
At this time, not only the father, wife and mother, but also the expressions of disbelief shot at themselves.
Wang Dongsheng, who is full of confidence in himself, directly analyzed, "My head has not been burned …"
"Do you think that in the spring of next year, our family will be given forty acres of land at one time …"
"Because the Governor has given us a deep well, there will be no shortage of water in these lands … plus we have cattle to plough deeply … and it is definitely not a problem to harvest a load and a half of grain in an extra acre of land …"
"An acre of land with a load of half a dozen acres is 60 loads of grain … except for paying taxes on the governor’s office, we can spare 30 loads of grain in a year …"
"Even if we keep 20 loads of grain as rations, we still have 10 loads of grain that can be exchanged for silver …"
"In addition, we will be able to complete the cultivation of 40 mu of land in a short time after the spring ploughing with oxen, and then we can help cultivate another three or four mu of land with oxen … so that we can have an extra four or five loads of grain harvest a year …"
"Fourteen or five loads of grain can definitely be sold for sixty-five taels of silver according to the current food price …"
See family a face of dumbfounded expression Wang Dongsheng continued.
"Besides farming, three fat sheep at home can also help us earn silver …"
"Three fat sheep in the year even if you give us three lambs, when they grow up, we can sell thirty taels of silver less … if we don’t sell these three lambs and continue to raise them … in the year after next, the flock at home will become twelve more …"
"When the time comes, we can not only pay off 1,320 taels of silver to the Governor, but also save dozens of taels …"
"After two years, we will pay off all our debts … and the grain tax will be reduced by 20% … Then our days will get better and better, and there will be no such days of starvation …"
Chapter two hundred and nineteen Pay increase proposal
With the same idea, not only the whole wasteland of the Wang family, but also every citizen has not missed this opportunity to earn money, and more or less they have brought back one or two sheep …
More than 10,000 cattle and hundreds of thousands of sheep were scattered in various wasteland sites, and were digested by millions of villagers in less than ten days.
Faced with this result, Wei Zheng believes that after the autumn harvest in 2008, he will certainly get unprecedented gains from this effort.
Because of Wei Zheng, I know that there will be no signs of this drought in the next seven years. With the continuous development of wasteland reclamation, food prices in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces will certainly remain stable due to a large amount of grain output, but other provinces outside Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces are different …
The drought continues, the grain harvest continues, and the food prices everywhere will become higher and higher.
However, with the continuous grain output and self-intervention, the grain prices in the two provinces under their jurisdiction will definitely drop to a certain extent.
In this way, I can buy food from the villagers in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces at a very low price and then sell it at a very high price to earn a large price difference …
In this way, the benefits you get will be higher than selling cattle and sheep directly, and it will be much higher
Not only that, millions of villagers in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces will also get a large part of the benefits from it, so as to remember the governor’s office, remember their own good keys and always be behind them …
And this invisible benefit is the real best interest for yourself.
The thought of these Wei Zheng faces unconsciously reveals a smile … a smile full of ambitions for the future.
Then directly responsible for the local garrison expansion fruge with a full face of anxiety suddenly walked up to his report.
"There was an accident here in the local garrison of the guard …"
"Although the article on expanding the army and recruiting soldiers has been sent for half a month … but according to the summary of the local garrison, it shows that half a month has passed and more than 15 thousand people have come to join the garrison voluntarily and passed the examination … the number of recruits is far from urgent …"
"You mean no one wants to join the garrison …"
Zhang Wu nodded and answered, "It’s a guard …"
"The monthly salary of ordinary soldiers in the local garrison is two taels of silver, which is twenty-four taels of silver in a year, but because of the wanton reclamation in the two provinces of Shuaishan and Shaanxi, the grain price of ten acres of fertile land can also be easily earned, but four taels of silver …"
"In this case, not many people are willing to serve as soldiers …"
Weizheng nodded and didn’t speak to the horse.
Although he knows that with the large-scale exhibition of wasteland, the grain prices in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces will definitely intervene by themselves, and the annual income of ordinary people will definitely not be as high as they thought.
But after all, this is not a short time to see.
And it is impossible for the governor of Shaanxi to tell this speculation himself, because no matter how much or how little this reduction is, it will affect the confidence of millions of villagers in Shaanxi and Shaanxi provinces
There is only one way for people to become soldiers, and that is to increase their salaries, otherwise no one is willing to give up this comfortable day and join the army and face death at any time …
Thought of here, a face of serious defense directly decided to "increase the salary … if you want to impress the people, there is a way to increase the salary."
"Now the monthly reimbursement of butch and leopard troops is three taels of silver, and the monthly reimbursement of garrison troops is two taels of silver … Since all civil and military officials in Shaanxi and Shaanxi provinces have increased their salary subsidies, the soldiers who brought us security may also live on what meager reimbursement, and they also have families to support behind them …"
"Pay more …" Hearing these two words, Zhang Wu frowned.
Wei Zheng stared at a face of worry and woke up. "We doubled the army without telling the imperial court and paid the soldiers a salary. One million five hundred and two thousand silver is posted in the governor’s office every year … If we add the soldiers’ food and equipment, it will be two hundred and two thousand silver a year …"
"If you pay more, even if every soldier pays more every month for a year or two, it will be 1.22 million … at the end, you will worry that the Governor’s Office can’t bear such a price. After all, there are 50,000 butch and leopard troops to support besides the hundreds of local garrison …"
Zhang Wu said yes, although it is a matter of his own words, this sentence is full of gold content.
In a word, millions of taels of silver go out.
Because of their expansion of the local garrison, it means that they have to expand the army of tigers and leopards.
But in this troubled times, the importance of the military will always rank first in the mind.
I have to bear the economic pressure brought by the increased salary, no matter how big it is.
After some meditation, the defender’s face was full of dignity, and a strange smile appeared.
Zhang Wu looked at the big answer with a pair of worried eyes.
"Let’s do that and pay all the troops in Shaanxi and Shaanxi provinces … because these officials have their own way to pay …"
Speaking of which, Wei Zheng’s tone of voice has unconsciously become serious to Zhang Wuda’s decision that "according to the current food price, it is not enough for ordinary soldiers to buy two taels of food a month to satisfy the soldiers. Handsome decided to raise the monthly salary of ordinary soldiers to four taels of silver …"
"You know, it’s best for the imperial court to pay only three taels of silver a month in Ningjun … If we are as high as four taels, most of the villagers in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces will be moved …"
"Ordinary troops pay four taels of silver a month. After entering the Tiger and Leopard Army, ordinary soldiers pay six taels of silver a month."
Even though Zhang Wu is ready for Wei Zheng’s upcoming pay increase, he still didn’t expect Wei Zheng to increase the pay directly to more than double the original.
At this time, a face of shock, Zhang Wu did not answer the horse, but fell into deep thought, thinking about the amount of pay that Shanshan Governor’s Office would have to bear in a month after the army increased its pay.
I don’t know. I was shocked …
In the face of nearly one million Liang in a year, Zhang Wu’s first reaction was to bear it by the Governor’s Office.
Zhang Wu, a military commander, doesn’t believe that the annual income of Shanshan Governor’s Office will exceed that of the imperial court because one million taels of silver is almost incompatible with the annual tax revenue of the imperial court.
Besides, in addition to supporting hundreds of thousands of troops, the Shaanxi Governor’s Office also has several civil and military officials to support.
So a full face of shock, Zhang Wu almost woke up consciously, "Marshal … This is really a million taels of silver …"
I have thought that these silver-coming road signs have not been scared by this number.
