After this incident, the celebration banquet naturally broke up unhappy. Shortly after Hao Dayong left, two Ye Busuo came and carried the knocked out Heitie back.
All the officers were relatively speechless. Bin Shiqian came over and twitched the corners of his mouth to say something, but for some reason he swallowed the words back. Then he shook his head and left, but Qi Wuming came over.
He patted Pang Gang on the shoulder and said: "Brother Pang, Hao Qianhu also has his difficulties, but our tiger skin is hard-earned. If it is really something you can't do, go to Qingzhou yourself!"
Pang Gang knew that Qi Wuming's words meant that if Hao Dayong went back to embarrass Pang Gang, he should go to Qingzhou in person to report the situation to the Song commander. Song Xinghe would definitely give him justice. But Pang Gang never thought In the past, he had to go to Qingzhou to explain something to Song Xinghe. This kind of thing was always getting darker and darker. However, if Hao Dayong really dared to embarrass himself in the future, it would not be that easy. Although the guard station where he was located was under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou, Hao Dayong Dayong is not a member of Lingshan Health Center, and it is not that easy to embarrass himself.
"Brother Qi, I appreciate your kindness, but if Hao Dayong wants to embarrass me, it won't be that easy! Otherwise, I wouldn't mind letting him know what regret is!" Pang Gang's relaxed words were full of emotion. A slight chill.
"Brother Pang, you can't think of it and want to kill an official and become a bandit, right? Your current position is hard-earned." Qi Wuming, who thought that Pang Gang couldn't figure it out and wanted to kill an official and become a bandit, suddenly became anxious. Although he knew Pang Gang It wasn't long, but he was very close to her. He really didn't want to see Pang Gang go to that point.
"Hahaha..." Pang Gang laughed, "Brother Qi, look where you are thinking. No matter how stupid I am, I will not take that road of no return. Besides... ..."
"Nothing!" Qi Wuming quickly stopped Pang Gang's words: "This matter is not big or small, as long as you be careful, I think there will be no problem. You should be careful, brother, I will leave first. !" After saying that, Qi Wuming slipped away towards his tent, leaving Pang Gang standing alone.
"Besides, the Ming Dynasty, which is rotten to the core, may collapse at any time. How long can I, as an officer of the Ming Dynasty, continue to serve?" Pang Gang murmured to himself as he watched Qi Wuming's fleeing figure disappear into the night. .
There was no word for the night, and everyone parted ways on the spot the next day. Hao Dayong returned to Qingzhou with dozens of his subordinates and hundreds of prisoners, while the Lingshan Guardsmen also separated from Pang Gang and returned to their respective guard posts and Wanghai Fort.
When Pang Gang led the soldiers who went to war and escorted the loot back to Wanghai Fort, there was a sensation in the whole fort. Li Xian, Li Yuan and his son who stayed behind came out to greet them. They saw that everyone was safe and sound. After returning, they brought back hundreds of stones of food and a box full of silver. Wanghai Fort was filled with a joyous atmosphere. At the same time, some young and old in the fort shed tears of excitement when they saw that their family members had returned successfully. .
After the soldiers who went out to fight returned to Wanghai Fort, the fort suddenly became lively. The soldiers who stayed behind couldn't help but have a look in their eyes when they saw that their companions who followed Pang Gang to suppress the bandits came back one by one with rewards from adults in their pockets. It was an expression of envy. However, after Pang Gang announced that each of the people left behind would be rewarded with a dou of rice, the cheers of the crowd reached a peak...
In the Hundred Households of Wanghai Castle, Pang Gang was sitting in his room. There was a burning brazier on the ground. Pang Gang was sitting next to the brazier. Next to him was the silver coins left after the rewards were distributed. There was no such thing these days.
There is no such thing as giving credit to the public and giving it to the private. In Wanghai Fort, Pang Gang is completely a local emperor. All the people and finances are under his control, and all the property in the fort naturally belongs to him. Pang Gang, who was not used to these things at the beginning,
I just asked Zandian Huayan specifically for this purpose, who should he ask for military pay from a hundred households in Wanghai Fort?
At that time, Hua Yan almost laughed to death. It was not until Hua Yan explained to Pang Gang that he realized that he belonged to the Tun Army. Officials with less than 100 households in the Tun Army did not receive military pay. The entire property of Wanghai Fort belonged to him.
Is it necessary to receive military pay?
When he first heard the news, Pang Gang almost lost his brain. It's all mine. Don't let this surprise be too big, okay! With Hua Yan's explanation, Pang Gang finally understood another aspect of the Ming Dynasty's guard system.
, The guard posts in the Ming Dynasty are generally hereditary, which means that Pang Gang's current job as a member of the Wanghai Fort can be said to be a lifelong tenure. If he is not promoted or does something treasonous and unethical, he will be dismissed from his official position by the emperor.
Everything within a dozen miles of Wanghai Fort is decided by him, and the life and death of everyone here is determined by his thoughts. Moreover, Pang Gang can also pass this title, including the title of Baihu, to his son and grandson.
It was passed down from generation to generation until the Ming Dynasty ceased to exist.
"Damn it, who said that the garrison system is a cheating system? This is obviously a system that doesn't want to be too happy! Whoever says that the guard system is not good in the future will be the first to slap him!" Pang, who is a vested interest group
Comrade Gang was immediately filled with guilt. This system is really good news for officials! Although he was very excited at the time, Pang Gang, who soon woke up, sighed again. It seems that this Ming Dynasty lasted for more than two hundred years.
My lifespan is coming to an end, and no matter how good this system is, I won’t be able to enjoy it for a few more years.
Sighing, he threw the few ingots of silver in his hand back into the box, and began to make calculations in his mind. He found more than two thousand taels of silver from the warehouse in Dog Tooth Mountain, and divided 40% of them into more than 800 cars.
After dividing the soldiers who participated in the war, there were still more than 500 taels left. This money seemed to be a lot, but now there were too many places to use silver, money was needed everywhere, and I had a headache.
The current foundation of Wanghai Fort is too weak, and there is not even a decent shop in the entire fort. Such a place cannot attract a large number of refugees to settle here.
"You have to think of a way to make money! With money, you can buy more pig iron to exchange for weapons and equipment. With money, you can transform the outer wall of Wanghai Fort into a diamond-shaped fort with stronger protection. With money, you can appease the people inside the fort.
The hearts of military households." Pang Gang murmured, sitting silently on his chair, but his mind was spinning rapidly.
"How can I quickly accumulate a considerable amount of funds to improve my own strength?" Pang Gang thought over and over again, and his mind was about to get too big.
"Huh? By the way, I can build a cement factory! As long as I make this thing, I won't have to worry about running out of sales!" A bright light flashed in his mind, and Pang Gang stood up with a slap on his thigh in excitement.
In later generations, Pang Gang worked in a cement factory for half a year when he just graduated from university. He was extremely familiar with the cement production process. It can be said that as long as there is limestone and clay and a crusher and vertical kiln driven by animal husbandry are built, Pang Gang will
We are sure to make cement.
Cement is an indispensable material in various buildings in later generations. Looking back on the history of its emergence, it can be said that in 1796, the British Parker was using marl to bake a kind of brown cement, called Roman cement or natural cement. By 1824
Asputin, an Englishman, fired limestone and clay into cement. The hardened color was similar to the stone used for construction in Portland, England. It was named Portland cement and patented.
In 1813, Picasso, a French civil engineer, discovered that cement made from a three-to-one mixture of lime and clay had the best performance. Since then, cement has appeared in large quantities in later generations.
Once a cement plant is built, it can be used for everything, whether it is the construction of the Wanghai Castle wall, building roads and bridges, or building houses. When you think about the 1.868 billion tons that the country produces every year in future generations, accounting for more than 50% of the world's output.
Knowing how big our country's demand for cement is, Pang Gang suddenly felt hot in his heart.
Thinking of this, Pang Gang stood up and was about to go out to find someone for discussion when he saw Li Xian walking in from outside.
