Chapter 253

"Eat chicken?" Zheng Yunhe was stunned!

"Ha ha, it's all right! Before coming today, I specially prepared a gift for Lord Zheng!" Zhang Zhou said with a smile.

"Don't be polite, marquis. The gifts you sent before are rich enough to open the door of the old man. There's no need to be so polite!"

Zheng Yunhe is not shy about his past of being bribed by Zhang Zhou.

"It's different this time!"

Zhang Zhou got up, pushed the door and shouted to the outside. Eleven Lang heard the order and came with a long box. People with clear eyes knew that it was something like calligraphy and painting.

"Hou Ye is going to send me calligraphy and painting?"

"No, it's a poem!"

"Poetry?"

"Yes, a poem about Lord Zheng!"

"Describing me?" Zheng Yunhe became interested and continued to ask, "I don't know who did it?"

In his heart, Zhang Zhou took a hard look at Zheng Yunhe, a "dog's eye looks down on people", and felt disgusted. Is Lao Tzu's poetry not worth money? Do you have to write by famous experts? But his face still smiled and said, "Hezhou Li Shuting!"

"Everyone Li wrote poems for me?"

Zheng Yunhe is in high spirits and can see how much he admires Li Shuting! Zhang Zhou's eyes brightened. This guy doesn't have a short board to use!

"Good rain knows the season. When spring happens, sneak into the night with the wind and moisten things silently!"

The words were not written by famous masters, but by Wei Wuyi. The writing is meaningful and does not lose the strength and edge of martial artists, and the content of the poem has been regarded by Zheng Yunhe for a long time.

"Lord Hou, thank you!"

"This is li..."

"Ha ha, just now I just said that everyone Li's literary talent surprised the world, and Hou Ye's poetry and music were the same. It shouldn't be difficult to write this poem!"

Zhang Zhou was moved and didn't want to admit it.

"It's not a good thing that you know how to hide your clumsiness at such a young age!"

Eleven Lang, standing behind Zheng Yunhe, glanced at Zhang Zhou. It seemed that as long as Zhang Zhou nodded, he planned to kill people. It had to be said that the longer he followed Zhang Zhou, the more serious his idea of active maintenance became.

Zhang Zhou glared at him and said with a smile, "Lord Zheng, I don't like hiding clumsiness, but people in the Jianghu. If you want to live well, you have to learn a little about low-key survival!"

"That's right. Lord hou can now be regarded as an important figure in business! If you are not careful, it's easy to capsize!"

"Lord Zheng, if you praise people like this, I can only take the words back, because the risk of giving them to adults is too great, so I have to be just in case!"

"Hahaha, then you don't have to work hard. I like this poem very much! I just don't think I can repay it! The 10000 Liang previously given to the Duke is still the discount price of the gift he gave me at the beginning, because the current situation of the government office can't give me a silver or two! But the poem of the Duke really gives me the joy of meeting a bosom friend. It seems that I have to use some personal affection in return!"

Zhang Zhou had to be surprised. Zheng Yunhe returned the silver he gave him in this way. Zhang Zhou had to be impressed by his character!

"I can't take out the silver from the yamen, but I can ask some rich families to donate some silver to meet the urgent need of establishing the strategic yamen! I'll give it back to the Marquis! And..."

"What else?"

"The number of 800 troops must not be exceeded, and if the State Army is transferred, I'm afraid it's very difficult for Hou ye to get a real man of tigers and wolves! Moreover, if you do anything, there will be casualties, which these generals don't want to see, so I want to give Hou ye a suggestion!"

"Lord Zheng, please speak!"

"The Marquis can ask for 800 vacancies! As long as the benefits are enough, I think those generals will be very happy to cooperate with the Marquis!"

Empty, to put it bluntly, is to eat empty rates! This is an unavoidable problem in all dynasties! There has been no major war in Datang for a hundred years, which is even more "logical"!

For example, the quota of Suzhou army is 10000, but in fact it is only 8000. No matter what task is assigned or where it is pulled, it will be calculated by 10000 people!

The 2000 military salaries fell into the pockets of the pacifying general himself, even in the forbidden army and the border army, but it was not so obvious. Zhang Zhou once took over the 2000 forbidden army for a short time. In fact, there were less than 1700 people! At the beginning of Wuzhou Wuyang war, it was claimed that 30000 elite state troops were destroyed, but the actual full amount was only more than 20000! Even in some states, the actual number is less than half of the quota. When it comes to an emergency, large stakeholders will be asked to send their servants to fill up!

However, this matter is also an open secret that can not be publicized. Even Pei Yuanzhao will not be serious about this matter. At the beginning, there was no full amount of troops in Wuzhou battle and all States sent troops. Pei Yuanzhao did not have any dissatisfaction with this, let alone ask about it or punish anyone. As long as you ensure that you can provide enough combat effectiveness when necessary!

If Zhang Zhou asks Yu Zhonghai for 400 people, Yu Zhonghai can't resist the order, but he will certainly be unhappy, because it really weakens his own strength, and he also has to distribute the materials and wages of 400 people. Therefore, even if he won't hinder it, he will have resistance in his heart. Zhang Zhou will inevitably be subject to restrictions everywhere in his future work, and finally let him run through the Qin River with many obstacles!

It's different to ask for 400 vacancies. You don't need to really weaken your own strength, and you don't need to really allocate food and salaries. You can also take this opportunity to wash yourself white, and even encourage Zhang Zhou to make a feat of "the death of the whole army" to wipe out your long-standing debt in the number of troops!

Zhang Zhou got these 800 places and could play at will! Do you want these 800 people to really stand in front of themselves, or do you want to talk on paper and put it in your pocket? It's all free to play as you want!

Zheng Yunhe knows this even better. He has no sense of indignation about the vacancy phenomenon, but very friendly tells Zhang Zhou that this "vacancy" is an operational opportunity!

Zhang Zhou respectfully saluted Zheng Yunhe, saying that he had been taught!

——————

Zhang Zhou looked at the dispatch document in his hand and the silver note returned intact. The arrest of Zhao Qijue, King Jing, has made many generals vulnerable and sensitive. They should pay more attention to themselves, a marquis who has a close relationship with the crown prince, and their courtesy has been greatly improved!

Zhang Zhou judged that Yu Zhonghai, a general in Suzhou, should be Zhao Qijue's man. When he saw himself, although he still held the momentum of a senior general, he showed great respect and politeness to Zhang Zhou everywhere in his words and deeds! There was no excuse for Zhang Zhou's mention of the amount of troops. He completely cooperated with Zhang Zhou and resolutely rejected his gifts. In short, he wanted to have a good relationship with himself, hoping to get one or two good words from the crown prince at the critical moment.

But Zhang Zhou really didn't think of it. If he really came to that day, what can he help?

With the acquiescence of the government and the strong cooperation of the pacifying general, Zhang Zhou wanted to run a team of hundreds of people, which was easy.

The benefits can't be absorbed alone. Although the personnel assigned to the economic and strategic yamen are only the State Army, and Zhang Zhou still pays his own money for food and salaries, after all, it is a formal official identity, which is also an expected and impossible leap for those rural villagers. Hu Guohai got 200 places and gave him a chance to reward his confidants. Of course, these people don't need to work in the yamen, let alone participate in training operations. They just change from mud legs to formal officials in the Yamen. How can they not be grateful and happy?

The remaining 200 places were arranged for Changping to draw out some good and trustworthy people from his jurisdiction to officially join Kyushu business as a soldier of the economic and strategic yamen!

Compared with those in Changping, Zhang Zhou trusted Changping more. The Qinzhou people still have to fade slowly. Some deep-rooted things in their bones, and even have many ideas, can only be grabbed from the rescued dolls.

Changping looks good. Now, wearing the armor of a school captain with a knife, the absolute visual effect is doubled! Looking at his excitement, it's a great pity that he doesn't have a mobile phone to take a selfie.

"Hou ye, is this true?"

Changping felt a little dreamy, for fear that all this would be fleeting. He didn't expect Zhang Zhou to fulfill his promise so soon, and he was a school captain with a knife. It's too hard to imagine how many people can't get into this position until they die.

"As long as I'm still a marquis, you're a legitimate and genuine Tang army captain!"

Changping naturally understood the meaning of this sentence. Putong knelt down and said excitedly, "Lord Hou, you are so heavy to Changping that Changping can't repay you all his life. In the future, you will go through fire and water for Lord hou..."

"All right, all right, get up. You don't have to show loyalty. What you do is always in your eyes. As long as you do well, you won't treat you badly!"

"Changping understands!"

……

"To be fair, I don't have any good impression on those people under you, but I'm still willing to give them a chance to reform. I hope they will cherish this identity and choose to be upright in the future or be a ghost. I have to think it over by myself. I absolutely have no patience to give them "Well, that's good. If you violate the rules of Kyushu, you're violating my bottom line. Don't think those provisions are just a formality. It's harmless to violate them occasionally. If you are reported and verified, I'll deal with you first! You should keep this in mind!"

Changping quickly answered. Zhang Zhou thought for a moment and continued, "although there are still 400 places in the future, I will make up for them in other places. Your 200 places must be carefully considered and grasped. The survival of the fittest and competition for the top. As for the selected ones, I will carry out strict training for them. How much they can leave in the end depends on their own efforts!"

"Don't worry, marquis. You must strictly screen your humble position, so that you'd rather be short than excessive!"

Zhang Zhou plans to leave some of the 400 people to Qin Huan's men and then transfer some from all over. Zhang Zhou is very optimistic about the discipline of the dead. This is also a means to appease their attachment!

Moreover, it is claimed that there are 800 people, and Zhang Zhou plans to expand the actual number of internal participants to 2000. Otherwise, it may be difficult to do anything in Qinzhou with complex environment.

With the joint efforts of several parties, Qinjiang JINGLUE yamen officially appeared and became the ninth yamen under the politics of Suzhou government.

The bandit forces in Qinzhou have been greatly weakened in their fratricidal struggle, and Zhang Zhou has no idea of completely eliminating them. He needs the Yamen to survive for a long time to help him plan more interests! But he also did not allow those residual forces to make trouble. The training of the mountain army depended on the cooperation of these die hards who were unwilling to belong. Changping and Qin Huan were responsible for all the specific matters. He just set the basic goal: never allow another real robbery; Within two years, all the people in Qinzhou checked again and eliminated all the remaining threats!

With the implementation of the migration plan, the pace of Kyushu's business center transfer from Hezhou to Qinzhou began to accelerate! Both land and water go hand in hand. If you want to keep a low profile, you can't keep a low profile. Fortunately, most joints have been opened and haven't caused too much trouble.

This action tested the transportation capacity of Kyushu commerce and the execution ability of several major caravans. Almost all the principals went to the front line and were responsible for control!

Because Zhang Zhou will be in charge of Suzhou for a long time, Hezhou has naturally moved the decision-making power of many things to Suzhou, allowing Zhang Zhou to make an overall decision, which also makes Zhang Zhou deeply realize that it is not easy to manage his family business, and is more moved by the efforts of Guan Yuniang and Tang Yuer!

Such a large-scale business change cannot be done quietly. While these big families in the southern ten prefectures are wary and vigilant, they are also really afraid of Zhang Zhou. The psychological shadow of "killing big families" can not be erased so soon.

Therefore, the big families of the ten southern prefectures elected several heavyweights to pay a visit to Zhang Zhou.

Zhang Zhou lives in the mansion of Fugui hall. Although many places have been changed and some old marks have been erased, which of these elderly people in the southern ten states does not know the past? In the face of this change of geomantic omen, they sigh one by one.
