"Your Highness Gao Yi, your subordinates and your clan members have taken over. But there is no need to make people unhappy about this matter. We will bear it and go away!" Zheng Yong was very moved when he heard this, but he didn't believe that Your Highness would stand up for his "unpreienced people" and offend those good people.
"Haha, I won't pay for this meal!" Zhao Bing said with a wiping his mouth.
"Your Highness is just something you have captured by yourself. How dare you ask for your Highness's money? Besides, why don't you make the people in the world laugh at me as a stingy!" Zheng Yong said slightly unhappy.
"Okay, but the food cannot be eaten for nothing." Zhao Bing called Wang De and said, "Since then, the fish fresh in the royal family has been supplied by his family every day, and it has been settled at the market price, but he cannot make much money. Our family's money is also rich."
"Yes, I'll obey your order!" Wang De replied, bowing to Zheng Yonggong and said, "General Zheng, I'll trouble you in the future."
"Your Highness, this..." Zheng Yong hurriedly returned the salute and looked at Your Highness again.
"If you sell it, I buy it. Who dares to fart and ask him to go to the coach's mansion to argue with me!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and refused to let him say it again, and turned his face to say solemnly, "Fu Shuai, look at the price of meat soaring, and the money for food is insufficient. The officers and soldiers are very hard to train and patrol every day. How can they replenish their physical strength without meat?"
"This is easy to say. As long as your highness issues paper documents to the General Office and ask them to increase the price as appropriate." Ying Jieyan stroked his beard and said, but he was not up to the Tao.
"I calculated that each person will increase the monthly amount of 100,000 yuan a year. The current officers and soldiers of the General Office have more than 60,000 yuan, and it will take 72 yuan a year, and even if it is cut by half, it will take 360,000 yuan." Zhao Bing was not in a hurry and pretended to calculate, "These money needs to be raised by the general manager. As long as each digit is charged for one yuan, it will be almost the same. How about the difference being subsidized by the General Office?"
"Your Highness, the General's Mansion ordered the reduction of miscellaneous taxes a month ago, and this would be charged more. I am afraid that it would be untrustworthy to the people, right?" Ying Jieyan also said in an official voice.
"Since the commander thought it was inappropriate, he had to reduce his salary. The officers and soldiers worked the hardest. The king took the lead and the heads of each department all took out three months' salary, probably the same as that." Zhao Bing thought about it and said.
"This... Then according to Your Highness's plan, how about using fish instead of pork and mutton?" Ying Jie Yan Yaran. Your Highness's move is too cruel. Everyone has no place to make money than the prince. Now it is not like the past. Some people who have paid privately now rely on their salary to maintain their family expenses. If they don't have three months, the people below will not beg for food at their own house!
"Ha ha……"
"Oh!" Looking at the smug and laughed, Ying Jieyan had a headache, "Zheng Yong, if you ask your clan to supply the fish that the entire army eats, can you do it?"
"ah……"
"What, Fushuai gave you such a big deal, why don't you thank me quickly!" Zhao Bing kicked Zheng Yong, who was still stunned, and said.
"Thank Fushuai, my subordinates can still catch tens of thousands of kilograms of fish in one day!" Zheng Yong hurriedly said.
"No need to thank me, I'd better thank your highness!" Ying Jieyan waved his hand angrily. This was obviously because His Highness used public money to buy people's hearts and pretended to be public and private, but it was impossible to find fault.
"You don't have to thank me for now. Wait until I explain the conditions and see if you can do it." Zhao Bing waved his hand to stop Zheng Yongdao who was about to show his respect.
"Your Highness just give me instructions!" Zheng Yong knew that this was the time to change the fate of the Han clan, and he had to do it even if he had to save his life.
"Okay." Zhao Bing pondered for a moment, "One, the fish that supplies each army should not be higher than the market price, but it cannot be used to lose money, so it is calculated at 80% of the market price; second, the fish should be fresh, and the inferior should not be used as good ones, and the amount should be sufficient; third, the army should be spread throughout the island, and you must ensure that it is delivered on time and in quantity; fourth, you must ensure that you are not allowed to bribe relevant personnel, otherwise I will disqualify you from supplying.
"Don't worry, your highness, we can do all these things. Now there are people from the I-Nan tribe camping in every port, so you can deliver goods nearby. I'm just worried..." Zheng Yong promised, but hesitated but didn't say it.
"Hmph, who dares to stop the military supplies you handle? If you delay the matter and kill him, I will make the decision for you!" Zhao Bing snorted coldly and said with a murderous intent.
"Thank you for yourselves to live up to my whole clan's kindness, and the whole clan will never forget each other!" Zheng Yong turned over and knelt down and kowtowed, and the elders from several other clans also knelt down and kowtowed.
"It doesn't have to be like this!" Zhao Bing hurriedly helped them up and said, "I have seen that the sea is full of storms and rain. Recently, I will order the department to choose a near-sea area for you to settle ashore and open the market. With income, you can also hire a tutor to let the children read and read, and gain fame in the future."
"How can you repay your kindness with me?" Zheng Yong and several elders in the clan were crying after hearing this. His Highness's name for ridding the thousands of years of untouchables on them and completely changed the fate of their descendants.
"Well, there is something to ask you to help me." Zhao Bing thought about it after hearing this.
"Your Highness told us that our clan will never refuse!"
"The war has been urgent recently, and the enemy may send troops across the sea. Your patriarch is on the sea. If there are any enemy ships coming and going, can we give our army a warning first? " Zhao Bing said that although the navy sends ships to patrol the strait and there are watch-offs set up along the coast, there are always blind spots. And the thousands of fishing boats of the Han tribe are spread all over the sea, and they can monitor the sea around Qiongzhou at all times. With their early warning, it is equivalent to establishing thousands of surveillance watches.
"Qiongzhou is also the place where our gentry lives for generations. How can we allow foreign races to invade? This is also the duty of our clan. Your Highness can rest assured that if an enemy ship crosses the sea, he will be warned first!" Zheng Yong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. His Highness's request was just a matter of nothing, and he responded immediately.
"Okay, you can tell your tribe that if you succeed at this time, I will definitely have a heavy reward and will never be stingy!" Zhao Bing said happily. With their help, not only to monitor the enemy's naval army, clearing up pirates and tracking smuggling ships in the future, he could become a great help for himself. While he was happy, he also gave Zheng Yong the advice that they would make dried fish and scallops that were easy to preserve. It could not only be sold to merchants, but also to supply the army as food for the battles. This would not only solve the livelihood of some people after the 6th, but also increase some income.
