Chapter 60: New Blood "Just fifteen acres" came from a big house after all.
Even though he was not very popular in the family, he didn't find fifteen acres of land very attractive.
Moreover, although there are not many fields available for resale on the market and the area is relatively scattered, the Tianzihao paddy fields on both sides of the canal only cost five guan of old money per acre, which is equivalent to two and a half guan of new money.
Young people can just find a job in the city, and they can buy an acre of farmland with about two or three months' wages.
Why bother to work hard for fifteen acres of fertile land that they don't know where it is?
"Oh, my Lord Han."
Seeing the disdainful look on his boss's face, Deputy Governor Tang Tao stamped his feet anxiously, "You are really the young master of a wealthy family.
You don't know how difficult it is to make money.
We, all walks of life in Yangzhou City, The remuneration in various industries is high, but you can’t afford to spend money.
Come on.
Not to mention fifteen acres of fertile farmland, even the lowest-grade mountain farmland, fifteen acres is enough for many people to live without food or water for two or three years.
Moreover, according to the official document of the chief executive, these fifteen acres are only open.
In the future, for every additional level of military merit, you can earn two more acres."
"Isn't that right?
My subordinates are just weak, otherwise they would all think of joining the army."
Tan Shu, the secretary, carried three soft bows made of mulberry wood and ran past the two of them quickly.
"Our Huai'an Army has never lost a battle.
As long as we are not unlucky enough to die on the battlefield, how can we not get the credit of the tenth or eighth level after winning a few battles?"
This sentence brings us to the point.
It wasn't that the people of Yangzhou City were suddenly dazzled by the benefits of fifteen acres of land, but that the rewards and risks were really disproportionately great.
That's why young people rushed to sign up to join the army, hoping to gain a foothold at the lowest cost.
"This, his grandma's, this, ah bah" After thinking about all the twists and turns inside, Han Jianhong felt disappointed.
However, when I thought about it, when I was ordered to join the army, I probably didn't have much bright intentions.
As a result, the words of rebuke that had come to his mouth could no longer be uttered.
They turned into spit and spat angrily on the ground.
While they were talking, Tan Wuxi and others had already set up a stall in the courtyard, started recording the names, place of origin, and addresses of the applicants, and then led them aside to do the most basic physical test.
These are the daily tasks of the military bureau, so each of them is extremely skilled at what they do.
Everything was handled in an orderly manner without the intervention of the boss, Han Jianhong.
The young people who came to join the army lined up to do squats, weightlifting, throwing, bow shooting and other basic tests.
Those who successfully pass will be elated, as if they have hit the mark.
And those who failed the test were dejected, as if their entire lives had instantly become dim.
Note 1 Han Jianhong, the governor of the Military Science and Technology Bureau, watched from the side and frowned again.
I always want to find an opportunity to say a few righteous words and tell the young people who come to join the army that fighting as a soldier is not a child's play, and everyone should be prepared to sacrifice their lives for the country at any time.
However, he was afraid that the blow to everyone would be too severe, causing the military department to return to the desolate scene before.
For a while, I suppressed it until my face turned black, my scalp turned purple, and my lips trembled, but in the end I couldn't say a single word.
Just when he was holding back, Han Jiuwu, the servant who was responsible for transporting him to and from get off work, ran over sweating profusely, put his mouth to his ear, and reported in a low voice, "Sir, the young nephew is here.
In the big room Waiting to see you at the door."
"Which nephew, please tell me clearly."
Han Jianhong's face turned even darker when he heard this.
He frowned and ordered in a low voice.
"Yes, he is the eldest son's second son.
Thanks to your connections, he entered the first phase of the martial arts hall."
The servant Han Jiuwu is indeed a considerate person and gave the most appropriate answer without hesitation.
"Let him come in.
If you have anything to say, just say it in the yard.

Didn't you notice that I'm busy now?"
He frowned again, his voice full of impatience.
It's not that he, as an uncle, is showing off, but his experiences in the past few years are really chilling.
If it hadn't been for the purpose of taking care of the children of the clan, he wouldn't have fallen into the crosshairs of his own chief manager and lost his job as salt ambassador.
But what about those tribesmen who have benefited from him?
Who came to visit him when he was down and out?
Who came to drink a few glasses of wine with him and listen to him say a few grumbles?
They can run as far as they can. , as if he, Han Laoliu, were a bitch possessed by a degenerate god, and whoever got in contact with him would suffer eight lifetimes of bad luck.
It's fine now.
I heard that even people like Hu Dahai who were involved in shocking cases have a chance to see the light of day again, so the relatives came to burn the cold stove of his unlucky sixth man again.
Hey, is Mr.
Han a Crab?
If you put down your paws, you won't be able to remember what happened a quarter of an hour ago.
However, whether he is happy or not, the people who are supposed to come will still come.
About three minutes after arriving, a burly young man with a ring of down on his mouth squeezed in from outside the yard, following Han Jiuwu.
When he was far away, he bowed and saluted, "My nephew Qingyun, I have met my sixth uncle."
"This is the military department, there is no need to show family courtesy."
Han Jianhong turned aside with a cold face, then raised his hand to the right corner of his forehead, returning the standard military salute, "You are also a soldier, you should know the rules."
"Yes."
Han Qingyun immediately stood up straight and raised his hands in salute.
Then he quickly put on a smile and whispered, "Uncle Six, I haven't seen you for a few days.
You look much better than before."
"Of course, your sixth uncle, I have a big heart and a fat body, and I can eat and sleep."
Han Jianhong raised the corners of his mouth and responded with a smile, "If you have anything, please tell me immediately.
As you can see, today's situation is a bit special.
So Many people come to join the army, and as the governor of the military department, I have to tighten the control."
"Yes, Uncle Six, you have always been serious about your work.
Even the instructors at the martial arts hall admire you for this."
Han Qingyun heard this and immediately smiled and flattered his uncle.
Then he moved his body closer and added with a bit of reluctance: "Actually, my nephew came to you today mainly because he wanted to report to you.
My nephew graduated from the infantry department of Jiangwu Hall today and will soon add Join the 2061st Regiment of the Second Army, serve as the deputy of the first company of the first battalion, and concurrently serve as the commander of the third capital, and be promoted to the post of deputy lieutenant for guarding against aggression. " "Deputy centurion of the 1st Battalion, 1st Regiment, 6th Brigade, 2nd Army Corps."
Han Jianhong instantly converted the other party's words into familiar terms, and at the same time, a sincere smile emerged on his face, "Not bad.
Well, he is a disciple of the emperor after all.
He became a deputy centurion right after graduation.
When I was your age, I could only squat beside the governor and join the army."
"Six, Uncle Six" Hearing this, Han Qingyun couldn't help grinning and complaining in a low voice, "Uncle Six is teasing me again.
How can I, a company lieutenant, compare with you?"
"Why not?"
Han Jianhong frowned in surprise.
Immediately, he smiled and shook his head.
At that time, the Xuzhou Left Army only had a thousand combat soldiers and more than 4,000 auxiliary soldiers.
Therefore, the position of a combat soldier as deputy to a hundred households was far more valuable than a staff officer like him who had no soldiers to lead.
But now, Huai'an's army has as many as 130,000 to 40,000 soldiers.
Of course, the future of a small company deputy is not as good as that of a senior staff officer who can stay at the staff headquarters and can see General Manager Zhu himself at any time.
After understanding this section, he guessed the purpose of his nephew's visit today.

Then, he shook his head with a smile and said in a low voice: "Deputy Lieutenant Yuhang is not bad.
His military salary is five thousand dollars a month.
It is higher than me, the governor of the military department.
Besides, you are under the command of General Xu Da, and you have many battles."
Fight hard, our old Han family will have to look at you from now on."
"Uncle Sixth" Han Qingyun was so anxious that he stamped his feet.
He had just learned where he was going today, and he originally wanted to find out about Uncle Liu, who had been the salt ambassador, to see if he could change his position.
Even if you can't enter a promising place like the Privy Council, you must at least find a way to join the First Army and make achievements with Manager Zhu.
Unexpectedly, the other party refused to take action at all.
Instead, he kept making excuses for the situation.
"I'm telling the truth."
Han Jianhong knew what his nephew was thinking, so he simply lowered his face.
"They are all raised by their parents.
Why should others go to the front line and fight with real swords and guns, but you should stay behind and watch.
Besides, since you have finished studying the martial arts school, you should know that you can defeat a hundred thousand enemies by shaking your fan."
This kind of thing only appears in dramas and cannot be reality at all.
In fact, from the perspective of our chief executive, As for Xu Da, Hu Dahai, and Wu Liangmou, who today's status is not exchanged for their lives and the seven legions are commanded, together with the chief and deputy brigade commanders of the following brigades, who have not personally carried a sword to the front line.
I want to rely on myself to read more.
With just a few books, you can command the veterans under your command.
That's bullshit.
You don't have any real skills.
Who would trust your life in your hands?"
In desperation, he spoke in a slightly higher voice, which immediately attracted many auxiliary soldiers around him who had just passed the selection process.
Everyone raised their ears and were dumbfounded.
Han Jianhong himself, the more he spoke, the smoother his thoughts became, and the more he spoke, the more eloquent he became, "The military is the place where connections are least important.
Whether you are a mule or a horse, you will know it when you are taken to the front line for a walk.
At the moment of life and death, everyone is the only one."
I don’t care whose nephew you are, or whose nephew you are.
As a descendant of you, if you dare to rush forward despite the rain of arrows, everyone will be willing to give you the back.
If you weaken your legs before you see the enemy, even if you are the grandson of Lu Zeng, everyone will still be weak.
Damn you.
Don’t expect everyone to listen to your stupid dick’s orders.”
"I know you are not convinced."
Seeing his nephew's face turning purple with embarrassment, he paused and continued loudly, "I also know that you all have your own selfish motives.
It doesn't matter.
When I defected to the General Manager, I followed him.
Like you little bastards, you also want to retreat from the front and charge from behind, and you also want to die.
I'll do the meritorious service, but now that you've become a soldier of the Grand Controller, now that you've put on that armor, sooner or later you will forget those evil thoughts, and sooner or later you will remember who you are, who you are for, and what you are fighting for.
Only then will you realize that you did not deserve to be born in this world, and you did not deserve to be a seven-foot man in this life."
