Chapter 605 Reasonable Distribution
As soon as they finished discussing the matter, Hongluo came to inform Qin Sheng that General Qin Liu had arrived.
After Qin Sheng came in, Lu Songli assigned the task to him, "Enter the village quietly without making any noise."
Qin Sheng nodded, "Okay."
When Liu Guanlin found out that he only had one meal, the army was assembled.
He immediately wiped his lips and went to see General Qin Sheng and Qin Liu.
…
When Zhan Ruoshui returned to Qigongyuan, Lin Ye, Bi Shaoning, Sheng Peiguang and other disciples came to greet him.
"Master, Senior Brother Wei and Senior Brother Zhou, you are finally back!" Sheng Peiguang cried.
When he saw the big dark circles on his disciple's face, he was startled, "I haven't seen you for more than half a year. How did you become like this?"
Sheng Peiguang said resentfully, "Master, can't you see? We are tired."
After the master and two senior brothers left, their workload increased dramatically. They are not only responsible for the research and development of the projects they are working on, but also take care of their masters' projects.
Later, the junior brother also left to assist the East China Sea Expeditionary Force in the East China Sea, and their situation became even worse.
Zhan Ruoshui remembered that before leaving, he handed over the small project he was preparing to finish to his disciples to keep an eye on, and he felt a little guilty for some reason. But soon, he straightened his back again. When something happens, isn't it right for a disciple to obey him?
"The dividends are quite large, right?" Wei Wenqian asked in a faint tone.
Sheng Peiguang paused and smiled, "That's right." Otherwise, with this workload, they would have run away long ago.
Lin Ye and Bi Shaoning also smiled helplessly. It wasn't that they didn't want to be lazy, but that Pingzhou had given them too much, and it would hurt their conscience to be lazy.
"Master, it will be good if you come back. I will rest for a few days."
"Okay, is three days' rest enough?"
Three days? They slept and passed away! "Seven days, no more."
"Okay."
…
On this day, I heard that the army was going to distribute a batch of supplies. When Sun Congyi learned about it, he jumped a few times with joy.
He quickly went to find his father, "Dad, have the supplies to be distributed been delivered?"
Sun Ming: "Well, I will write a note to you later. You take the note and take someone to claim your subordinates' share. The military salary during this period will also be paid out together with the military salary established during this period." Bonuses for meritorious service.”
Sun Congyi's eyes lit up, are you going to pay military pay? And bonuses?
"Dad, can you write the note to me now?"
Sun Ming glanced at him, "What's the hurry? I still have something to tell you."
Sun Congyi patted his chest and said, "General Sun, please give me your instructions!"
Sun Ming said directly, "In the afternoon you will be responsible for escorting a batch of old weapons to the weapons manufacturing department."
These weapons had been damaged in recent battles. Taking advantage of the lack of large-scale battles in the coming period, they were sent to be refurbished and repaired or melted and rebuilt.
"As you command!"
Then, Sun Congyi took people to collect supplies.
Carloads of supplies were delivered to the training ground, and soldiers began to line up to receive them.
This time, each soldier received two sets of military uniforms, a pair of rubber shoes, two towels, two bars of soap, and a military kettle.
The soldiers of the Sun Army couldn't put it down one by one holding the supplies they received.
One of the soldiers giggled, "Why are they giving out soap again? Two pieces of soap are given out, how can they be used up?"
One piece of soap distributed is half a catty, two pieces is one catty.
The friend next to him said, "You can send it home if you don't need it. My wife likes our Pingzhou soap very much."
Then, the voice of their commander rang out, "The soap is given out so that you can bathe and wash clothes more frequently, take care of your personal hygiene, and reduce the number of people killed and sick!"
"We are Pingzhou soldiers now. Don't behave like before, slovenly and slovenly. It will embarrass our Sun family army!"
The soldiers begged for mercy, "I know, I know, we must wash up diligently and not embarrass the Sun family army!"
Some soldiers got the shoes and put them on their feet directly.
"What are the soles of these rubber shoes made of? They feel very durable."
The quartermaster who came to help distribute supplies this time heard this and thought to himself, of course I can't tell you that the soles are made of rubber.
They went to Zhuya Island to cut rubber wood before, but the main purpose was actually to cut rubber.
After the rubber came back, it was sent to Qigongyuan. This sole was developed by the No. 7 Industrial Research Institute and then sent to the military workshop for mass production.
Others also felt the difference of these shoes, "Putting on these shoes, I feel like I can climb mountains and swim without any fuss."
"Also, with this kettle, we will try not to drink raw water in the future. Diseases come from the mouth. The water must be boiled before drinking to avoid getting sick. Do you hear me?"
Pingzhou cares about them in every aspect.
Thinking about the past and then thinking about the present, comparing the two, some soldiers hugged the newly-issued clothes and cried, "Wow, Pingzhou is so good. From now on, I will be born in Pingzhou and die in Pingzhou." The ghost.”
One of the soldiers was so excited that he blurted out, "Little general, I want to give our governor a kowtow."
Sun Congyi said casually, "Then you go ahead."
The soldier was also unambiguous. He immediately knelt down in the direction of Changli and kowtowed three times.
Sun Congyi: ...I said I would knock you, but you really did.
Later, Sun Congyi asked the generals to also pay their salaries.
After posting, he mentioned his afternoon tasks and received an enthusiastic response.
"Okay, everything is done, let's all leave." When everyone was ready to leave, Sun Congyi reminded them, "By the way, there is meat in the canteen at noon today..."
The soldiers couldn't believe it, "Eating meat again?!"
"I asked my elder brother who stayed in Pingzhou to recover. We in the Pingzhou Military Region eat meat once every five days. It seems to be true."
"Oh my god! Does that mean we can eat meat six times a month?!" Isn't Pingzhou too good?
"So much."
The quartermaster is an old man in Pingzhou. Hearing this, he said, "You guys are lucky. Last year, Pingzhou was not that good. We could only eat meat once every half a month."
"I heard that Pingzhou has been engaged in breeding since last year. After taking down Fuyu, we even fenced off a lot of mountain land to raise pigs and sheep. Sir quartermaster, is that right?"
"Yes. The governor encourages breeding and planting industries, saying that he wants to ensure the soldiers' daily meat intake."
"I saw it when they carried the pig in today. Wow, it was really fat."
"The pigs we raise in Pingzhou are said to be the breed produced by mating domestic pigs and wild boars in the mountains. They produce more meat, are less likely to get sick, and have a better taste."
"Wow!"
Hearing the exclamations of his soldiers, Sun Congyi's smile never stopped. Everything that happened now showed that they were right to choose Pingzhou.
After lunch, the soldiers walked out in twos and threes, arm in arm, and when they met acquaintances on the road, they asked them to walk together.
"Where are you going?"
"To the Ji's Bank outside the door."
"Are you going to deposit the military pay you received into the bank?"
"Yes, I plan to deposit part of it." This part is deposited into the bank for emergency use. The remaining part is used for daily expenses.
It is not that they trust the Ji's Bank, but that they trust their governor. The Ji's Bank in Pingzhou is a joint venture between the Pingzhou Prefecture and the Ji's. Pingzhou holds 40% of the shares and the Ji's holds 60% of the shares, but Pingzhou does not participate in the operation of the bank.
So, most of the silver that had just been issued returned to the bank after passing through.
After the military supplies and military pay were fully distributed, Xue Xu came to report to Lu Songli.
After the report, Xue Xu thought for a moment and said, "Governor, are the treatments of our Pingzhou soldiers too generous?"
Compared to the Dali court, the cost of raising soldiers in Pingzhou is two or three times that of Dali...
"Such a huge military expenditure, can it be appropriately reduced? We have a lot of places to spend money if we want to develop in Pingzhou."
Lv Songli shook his head, "Military expenditure cannot be saved. Now we only have two enemies left, Xianbei and Dali, neither of which is weak. Our Pingzhou has the smallest territory, so we must be armed to the teeth."
"If we want to develop elsewhere, we can't save on military expenditure."
In addition, Lv Songli runs Pingzhou as a small country.
After a country makes money, the money should be distributed reasonably, and part of the money must go to the people, so that everyone who contributes to the country's economic development can get the rewards brought by economic development.
When the people have money in their hands, they are willing to spend, which in turn will drive the development of their own economy.
Thereby forming a healthy and benign internal circulation foundation.
Xue Xu was startled. His original intention was good. He thought that military expenditures could be appropriately reduced. As long as they could beat Dali, the soldiers would not complain. But the governor's considerations were obviously more comprehensive.
