- As soon as the capital commander Si asked Ganzhou Guard to recruit troops on his own, Xiao Yeyang sent people to post recruitment notices at the gate of the guard station and outside the city gate.
After receiving the news, Fan Tong and Xia Jianren both gathered in front of the notice outside the guardhouse gate and looked at the content on the notice. One frowned and showed disapproval, while the other remained silent and didn't know what he was thinking.
Fan Tong shook his head: "Okay, why do you think of recruiting troops? The guard station is so poor that it can't even provide food and wages for the border army. How can you get the money to recruit troops?"
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡
Now the envoys are commanded to let the Ganzhou Guards recruit troops and prepare their own food and wages. Doesn¡¯t that mean that the food and wages have to be provided by the Ganzhou Guards?
Xia Jianren glanced sideways at Fan Tong, who looked worried, and sneered: "What are you worrying about? The current Ganzhou Guard is not headed by you and me, but by the newcomer from the fifth rank Xiao Town. Even if the guard I don¡¯t have any money, but the Xiao Mansion has it. Xiao Zhenfu wants to recruit troops, so he will naturally take care of the money issue.¡±
The disapproval on Fan Tong's face became more and more obvious: "I know the Xiao Mansion is rich, but the army consumes a lot of money every day. How long can the Xiao Mansion support it?"
Xia Jianren smiled and shook his head: "Whatever, it has nothing to do with you or me."
Hearing this, Fan Tong was a little dissatisfied: "You and I are the commanders of the Ganzhou Guard. How come such a big thing as recruiting troops has nothing to do with us? No, Xiao Yeyang may not understand the consumption of the army. I have to persuade him. Advise him."
Xia Jianren saw this and quickly grabbed Fan Tong: "Xiao Yeyang must be recruiting 50,000 border troops. What's the use of talking about this?"
Fan Tong frowned immediately. He knew that the number of border troops stationed in Ganzhou Guard was not enough, so he even urged Master Wei to do so, but Master Wei blocked him every time.
Now the commander-in-chief has issued this decree to recruit troops on his own. Isn't this a move to abandon the burden?
Xia Jianren saw Fan Tong's expression change, and there was a hint of sneer at the corner of his mouth.
He really couldn¡¯t understand why Lord Wei valued Fan Tong more between him and Fan Tong. Is it because he was stupider?
Xia Jianren ignored Fan Tong and returned his eyes to the notice again.
The deep-seated reason why Mr. Wei asked Xiao Yeyang to recruit troops was that he understood that recruiting troops was expensive. When Xiao Yeyang could no longer afford it, he would naturally leave.
Mr. Wei still wants to squeeze Xiao Yeyang away.
Seeing the notice, a lot of people gathered around him, and Xia Jianren laughed inwardly.
Life here in Ganzhou Wei is poor. In order to save food rations, some families will still let their families join the army, even if they know that they may die if they join the army.
Not to mention that the guard station is now recruiting soldiers. In addition to taking care of food, it also pays salaries. There will definitely be a lot of people coming to join the army.
I hope that Xiao Yeyang can recruit more troops, so that he can leave Ganzhou Guard and Xiliang as soon as possible.
Xia Jianren no longer thought about recruiting soldiers and walked towards the guard station. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw Chen Qianhu from Ganxi Qianhu Station walking out with a happy face.
"Chen Qianhu, why did you come to Ganzhou City?"
When Chen Qianhu saw Xia Jianren, he paused for a moment, then smiled and stepped forward to greet him: "Master Xia."
Xia Jianren glanced at the place where Chen Qianhu had just come out, and asked with a smile: "Did Xiao Zhenfu come to you?"
Chen Qianhu nodded and said nothing more.
When Xia Jianren saw it, his expression moved slightly, and he sighed in his heart: Xiao Yeyang's methods are really good, he gathered thousands of households from Qianhusuo so quickly.
"I see that your face is full of joy. Is there something good going on?"
Chen Qianhu hesitated for a moment, knowing that Xia Jianren was the commander of the capital, so he said vaguely: "I just came here to report the planting situation to Mr. Xiao."
The Ganzhou Guard is the poorest among the nine guards in Xiliang, and the Ganxi Thousand Household Guard is the poorest among the five thousand households in Ganzhou Guard.
In previous years, even if the military households in Qianhu Station in Ganxi risked their lives, after turning in the military rations, the remaining food could at most keep the military households from starving to death.
But this year is different. The grain seeds grown by Mr. Xiao during spring plowing are really drought-resistant and high-yielding. When he thinks of the crops growing happily in the fields, Chen Qianhu smiles again on his face.
Chen Qianhu was happy, but Xia Jianren quickly frowned and turned to look at the notice outside the gate of the guardhouse.
He had forgotten that because of the high-yielding grain seeds brought by Xiao Yeyang, the harvest of the health center this year would probably not be much worse.
With food, you can raise soldiers. No wonder Xiao Yeyang dared to recruit soldiers.
Mr. Wei, was it wrong to let Xiao Yeyang recruit his own troops?
With this thought, Xia Jianren shook his head. Even if there was a bumper grain harvest this year, considering the situation of the Ganzhou Guard, how much more grain could be harvested? Xiao Yeyang would definitely not be able to support the army.

However, half a month later, the health center officials gradually realized that something was wrong.
The reason is that there is a briquette factory outside the city gate of Ganzhou.
Xiliang uses coal for making fires, cooking, and to resist the cold. As soon as the briquettes came out, there was no need to publicize them. Everyone saw at a glance that the briquettes were much better than the briquettes they usually use, and they rushed to buy them.
The officials also used it at home. When they inquired about it, they were all stunned to learn that the briquette factory was actually run by the Wei Suo.
In just half a day, the news spread throughout the entire Guard Command Department.
After Xia Jianren heard about it, he was stunned for a while: "Xiao Yeyang found the coal mine?"
Coal mine
Xia Jianren was shocked. If Xiao Yeyang really had coal mines, feeding tens of thousands of soldiers would not be a problem!
¡°No, this matter must be reported to Mr. Wei immediately.
"It's a pity that the servants sent by Xia Jianren were captured by two secret guards not long after they left Ganzhou City.
Xia Jianren and Fan Tong were both members of Wei Hongcai. Xiao Yeyang came to Ganzhou to investigate and find out.
He didn¡¯t want people from the Commander¡¯s Department to interfere with what he was going to do, so he would naturally be on guard against these two people.

Shiqukou.
Wang Wu saw another long transport team passing by at the foot of the mountain, and quickly went to find Wang Qi.
At this moment, Wang Qizheng was standing in front of the wasteland reclaimed by the Wang clan, looking at the green crops in the field, with hope shining in his eyes.
It has just entered June, and there is still some time before the autumn harvest. But looking at the growth of the crops in the field, he can already imagine the scene of this year's bumper harvest.
"gentlemen!"
Wang Qi heard Wang Wu¡¯s shout, moved his eyes away from the crops, and walked towards him: ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±
Wang Wu gasped: "Sir, follow me to the top of the mountain quickly. Another convoy transporting supplies passed by the foot of our mountain! I saw it. The person leading the team is the person who delivered food to Xiao Mansion before."
Hearing this, Wang Qi smiled and said as he walked: "What's all the fuss about?"
Wang Wu wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Don't you want to know what was sent to you this time?"
Wang Qi paused for a moment: "No matter what you give, the Xiao Mansion will eventually benefit the people of Ganzhou Guard."
At this time, the two people passed by the tribe's house and saw the tribesmen using briquettes to boil water. They saw that the briquettes lit a fire after a while, and both of them smiled.
Wang Wu: "This briquette is really much easier to use than briquettes, and the price is cheaper. I should have bought more when I went to Ganzhou City last time."
Wang Qi said ¡®hmm¡¯, and turning briquettes into briquettes seemed simple, but it was improving the lives of Xiliang people little by little.
