Li Chun appeared quietly behind Li Po. When Li Po saw her, she was already sitting there, dozing off little by little.
Red Eyes had already come over and sat on the ground behind Li Bi. Then she lowered her head and started wiping her scimitar, which was one size larger than others.
When Li Po and Li Bi were almost done discussing it, they looked around and suddenly felt that there seemed to be some yin and yang in their home.
But if he wants to add a man to his family, he can only work hard on his own.
Li Po sighed in his heart. This is not a good time to have children. Even he is afraid of losing his life if he is not careful, let alone other people. How can he have the time?
Raising children?
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, the couple washed up. Li Bi seemed to have just remembered and said to her husband: "It's time for us to find a mansion. We will always live here. You really want to treat your restaurant as a Chinese military headquarters."
Can’t settle the account?”
Li Po was a little reluctant and muttered, "There's nothing wrong with it."
Li Bi rolled her eyes and didn't say anything.
Li Po knew that he might not be able to live in this restaurant for long.
After all, the restaurant is just a restaurant. It lacks a lot of the majesty of an official. Before, it could be said that Heng'an Town moved its home. Li Pochu took over the military power. In addition, there was a series of wars. There was no time to pay attention to it, so it was regarded as this place.
Temporary residence.
But things are different now. Yun Nei is united and has the strength of an iron bucket. It would not be appropriate to continue like this.
Li Po felt that he was a very nostalgic person. Well, in fact, he was just being pretentious. With his current status in Yunnei, he was just a standard local emperor.
Even if he were bullying men and dominating women here, no one would dare to take care of him, let alone a mere mansion.
In fact, he didn't even need to say anything. As long as he showed a little intention, many people would think of dedicating their own houses to please the general of Heng'an.
You know, the two owners of Bahianlou are now big shots in Yunnei.
Needless to say, Wang Qing was another boss who was quite unlucky. He was arrested and taken to Heng'an Town over and over again. He was really frightened.
But now, there are many cattle and sheep, and there is a large pasture in Yunnei. There is also a brothel in the south of the city to entertain soldiers and generals from Heng'an Town.
Speaking of this, even people who have been tortured a lot before have to admit that General Li is a kind person.
This is still a reference. Compared with the greed of the previous Heng'an Town General Han Jing, Li Zhenjiang is almost synonymous with upright officials.
Didn’t you see that they are still living in Bamianlou?
Therefore, Li Po's official reputation in Yunnei is very good. Of course, compared with his reputation for being good at fighting, it is much inferior.
In any case, it is not difficult to find a mansion in Yunnei City as the governor's residence.
It's just that this person's needs at each stage are very different.
Just like when they first entered Mayi City, Li Po and Li Chun just wanted to find a sheltered place to stay and live a small life at home.
Now, the mansion and other things have taken a back seat. There are a lot of things waiting for him to do, and what is he fighting for? It's his career, his power, his wealth.
This is all caused by people, and Li Po is no exception.
It's just that when Li Po thought about it, he felt a little bit shadowy in his heart.
You know, he and Li Chun only stayed in that courtyard in Mayi City for one night, and then it was burned to the ground.
The residence in Mayi Ranch is now a pile of dead people. Nearly 10,000 Turks were buried there. Yuen Long immediately abandoned the place and built some more houses at the end near Yun Nei.
He also had his house in Heng'an Town, but it was even worse. It had become a sheepfold.
After going around in such a circle, Li Po wondered, was he destined to have no fixed place?
Of course, this cannot be entirely blamed on him. The world is in turmoil and there are too many displaced people, but he is not the only one. People who can live in a safe place at this time and are not afraid of wind and rain, even those big bosses, probably don’t have the confidence to do so.
Woolen cloth.
Li Po did not pretend to say anything like "the place where you are is home". Although he did feel that way, he simply agreed and agreed.
On this day, Li Po ordered the captains to gather together.
Except for Chen Yuan's absence, there are now a total of nine military commanders in Heng'an Town, and they all came to Bamianlou one after another to gather together.
The horses' hooves were clattering, and the soldiers' armor was clanking. In an instant, the eight-sided building was filled with a chilling air that was a bit colder than the cold wind in early winter.
The captains met at the door, either beating their breastplates or holding their fists, saluting each other, talking and laughing as they went inside.
As the captains arrived one by one, they took their seats one after another.
In the lobby, the captains gradually stopped smiling and their voices became softer. They were all wondering in their hearts, what if something big happened?
You must know that since the formation of the Heng'an Town Army, it has rarely been seen that people have arrived so neatly.
Among the nine captains, some were just wrapped in leather robes, some were wearing armor, and some were covered in dust and covered with sweat. Obviously, they were all found everywhere, and they were not prepared in advance.
Everyone had arrived and everyone was drinking hot tea. Before long, Li Po came out from behind.
As soon as he appeared, people in the lobby stood up with a roar, bowed and beat their chests, saluting him.
This is actually the most attractive thing about military power for aspiring men. It orders and prohibits people and gives orders. Apart from the imperial power, there is no other power in the world that can be as majestic and full of evil spirit as the military power. Even the imperial power sometimes has no way to deal with this.
comparable.
And when you enjoy the taste, you will often become obsessed with it and find it difficult to extricate yourself.
Li Po had already adapted to this life of military power. He walked directly to the top, sat down safely, and then waved his hands and said, "Sit down and talk."
After everyone sat down, he said calmly: "I called you all here today, mainly because I want to talk to you about a few things."
"The first one is, of course, rewards based on merit. This year, it has not been easy for everyone, whether you go out with me or stay at home. Throughout the year, even if you are a common man's family, you have to
Happy, happy, not to mention us soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles..."
Everyone was thinking about it. After hearing this, they breathed a sigh of relief and smiled involuntarily on their faces.
But he heard Li Po change the subject and said with a smile: "But in this year and age, there is really nothing to reward. Officials, you can't be promoted. If you are promoted, you can only sit in my position. I guess you don't dare to, money
Well, it’s of no use to the generals in the army.”
"I heard that in Mayi City, a bucket of rice costs dozens of guan. How many people can afford it?"
"Tell me, what is all this about?"
Everyone just started to smile, but then their faces froze. Thinking about it, they were also frustrated. Now, having a full stomach is really the top priority of the Heng'an Town Army, and other things really don't matter.
But the Lord is crying for poverty... A few astute people are already pouting secretly, there must be another story waiting in it.
Bu Qun's eyes were rolling there, and his heart was itching unbearably. He wanted to say a few words in agreement, but the words did not come out, so he wisely swallowed them back.
This is different from usual times. Flattery at this time is not only easy to slap on the horse's legs, but also easy to offend colleagues. He prefers to talk a lot, but this does not mean that he is stupid.
As some people expected, Li Po looked around and continued with satisfaction: "So, we can only learn from the Turks."
"We still have some idle pastures here. When you go back, report the names of those who have made meritorious deeds. The cattle and sheep pastures will be a reward. These will also allow the soldiers to have less worries."
Everyone nodded secretly. In this way, even if they, the captains, did not like the reward, they could still have an explanation with the people below.
Everything you say now is false. Keeping a family fed, clothed and warm is what the soldiers care about the most.
Bu Qun finally found a way to speak, and immediately said eagerly: "The general is wise, and rewarding the sergeants like this is much more practical than anything else. With the military's morale united, there will be much to do in the future."
A few captains bared their teeth in amusement, but Lao Bu had his old habit again.
Li Po also smiled, "There's a lot to be done...General Bu, tell me, what does it mean to say there's a lot to do?"
Bu Qun was stunned and said in his heart, I just said that, do you take it seriously? You are the same person, why do you have to jump down every time I hold you in my arms? It’s not just jumping down, but also stepping on it.
I have two feet, this is so unethical.
But the words still need to be answered, "If the general rewards the meritorious soldiers like this, then everyone will know the benefits of going north. In the coming year, the general will lead his troops to the north again. How dare everyone not die? Kill two birds with one stone. The general is really capable of leading troops.
Fang is so admirable."
Hey, this man has really grown up. Li Po touched his chin, and he actually made up things that he didn't expect. It's rare.
Okay, since what you said is good, I'll let you go this time.
"Well, General Bu is right..."
Bu Qun was already overjoyed and immediately got carried away. Before Li Po could finish speaking, he repeatedly handed over his hand and said, "General, don't say anything about General Bu from now on. In front of the general, I am just a captain. Don't say that I am a captain."
Well, among all the people in the cloud, who can be called a general in front of the general?"
At this point, he suddenly paused, thought of someone, and immediately started to make amends, "Haha, except for General Li, haha..."
Li Po gritted his teeth and smiled so uglyly, if I don't repair you, you will go to heaven.
