Beili replied in a deep voice: "The military pay allocated by the imperial court to the Northwest Army has not been released yet. This time it has been delayed for half a year. It is a bit difficult to support the army with our own money alone."
"Someone in the military camp took the opportunity to cause trouble. They have caused trouble several times. It is not an option to continue like this. I am afraid that the morale of the army will be weakened."
When Pei Lin heard this, his expression was unspeakably sinister.
It seems that the old emperor's hand has reached into the northwest military camp.
"Let them make trouble, but I will see who can't sit still. When these people make trouble, I will drive them all out of the Northwest Army."
After hearing what he said, Beili responded immediately, but he was still worried: "Now that the New Year is approaching, and the imperial court does not allocate military pay, I am afraid that the soldiers and generals will not have a good life this year."
Beili felt sad when he thought about it. They were obviously Dayan's soldiers and horses, but in the end they relied on them to raise them privately.
The court was always unable to allocate military pay on time. Even if it was allocated, the food was not good food, but old food from the old year. The money was getting less and less. Every time the court said, let them be tighter. It is not easy for the court, mom.
, is it easy to be a soldier in the army?
He knew that the imperial court never withheld military pay from other armies. For example, the army led by Gao Guogong had never been short of food and pay, and it was short of food and pay as soon as they arrived.
The Dog Emperor was clearly trying to make things difficult for his own prince and wanted to destabilize his military morale.
After hearing Bei Li's words, Pei Lin frowned and said, "Let's allocate the money we can allocate to military pay first, and we'll talk about it later in the year."
"Okay, my subordinates will take care of it."
When Bei Li walked out, the atmosphere in the room was extremely gloomy.
Feng Jing couldn't help but look at Pei Lin and asked, "So the prince is so poor?"
Pei Lin did not deny: "Yes, I am very poor. The Northwestern Army's military pay has never been paid in full, and the grain is old grain. I want the soldiers to eat well, so I have to sell the old grain and use the money to buy new ones."
food."
Feng Jing couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. It turns out that having an army of 200,000 is not a good thing, and you have to worry about them eating, drinking, and sleeping. No wonder Beili has been running business outside.
Speaking of business, Feng Jing thought of many good ideas to make money. She quietly glanced at Pei Lin and said, "What business is Beili doing outside now?"
In fact, what really makes money is smuggling salt and tea, but Pei Lin can't talk about this.
Dayan banned the sale of salt and tea, but in order to support an army of 200,000 people, he could only do this.
Thinking of this, Pei Lin felt a hatred for Emperor Xiaoren in his heart.
After listening to Pei Lin's words, Feng Jing knew that he was not completely telling the truth, but she knew it even if Pei Lin didn't tell the truth.
The only thing left is selling things like salt and tea. These are the real money makers. How much money can be made by restaurants, grain stores and escort agencies? Caravans can indeed make money, but the existence of caravans is probably just to facilitate the transportation of salt and tea.
Feng Jing thought about it, looked at Pei Lin and said, "Actually, I have a few ways to make money. I wonder if the prince is interested in cooperating?"
Although the four children are Pei Lin's children and will not be short of money when they recognize their ancestors in the future, Fengjing still wants to leave something for the children, so she wants to cooperate with Pei Lin in business.
When Pei Lin heard Feng Jing's words, he was not too interested and asked casually.
"What recipe do you have in hand? Can you tell me?"
"Do you want the money to come in quickly or the money to come in slowly?"
When Pei Lin heard this, his interest rose and he stared at Feng Jing: "What's the explanation here?"
“Those who make money quickly are those who make money quickly; those who make money slowly are those who make money in the long term.”
Pei Lin stared at Feng Jing: "Tell me everything."
Feng Jing frowned slightly and thought about whether she should say it. If she said it, Pei Lin would be suspicious, so she didn't say it. Those things are indeed profitable.
She was in a dilemma and didn't speak for a moment. Pei Lin next to her instantly guessed the hesitation in her heart. In fact, he had always been skeptical about Feng Jing's ability, suspecting that she was not the same person.
"Just tell me, I promise not to question your recipe."
What this meant was that no matter how weird the recipe Feng Jing said was, he would not ask further questions.
Feng Jing thought for a moment that making money was more important. Besides, even if she didn't talk about it today, some things that were different from this world would still be exposed later. She would have to give an explanation when the time came. She could find a source for these things now.
Feng Jing thought about signaling Dong Li and others to go out. When no one was in the room, she looked at Pei Lin and said.
"The quickest way to make money is to make salt. I know the formula for making salt. The salt produced by this formula is as fine and white as snow. Of course, I only know the formula. You will need to study this formula yourself."
"In addition, making sauce is a recipe that earns money quickly. There are various kinds of miso, such as chili sauce, three delicacies sauce, seafood sauce, shrimp sauce, crab sauce, beef sauce, pork sauce, etc."
"As for sugar, which is slow to make money, the sugar currently produced in Dayan is all caramel, and there is also jaggery made from sugar cane. With this recipe, I can grind the jaggery into fine sugar, and you can also grow beets and use the beets to make sugar.
, of course, this is just a recipe, and the people below need to study it themselves."
"The last step is to make ice in the summer. This is quite simple, as long as you find something."
The room was quiet, and Pei Lin looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief. At this time, she seemed to be covered with a veil, making it difficult for people to see her true face.
Who is she?
Pei Lin couldn't help but say: "Feng Jing, who are you?"
Feng Jing immediately looked at Pei Lin with a smile and said, "I am who I am. You have forgotten what Master Yuanjue of Xiangguo Temple said before. I am Feng Jing. Master Guangyang also said before that I am who I am. If you
If you don’t believe it, ask him.”
"But I want to tell the prince something?"
Pei Lin narrowed his eyes and stared at Feng Jing: "You tell me."
Feng Jing thought for a while and said slowly.
"Since I was six years old, I have been dreaming every night. The dreams are about things in another world. The people in that world are different from us. Their food, clothing, and play are all much more advanced than ours. I follow
They were watching all the time and learned a lot.”
After hearing Feng Jing's words, Pei Lin was horrified and her face was full of disbelief.
His first instinct was that what Feng Jing was telling was a lie, but considering her medical skills and her casual business experience.
If what she said is not true, how can we explain these strange things?
Could it be that she is the legendary beloved child of heaven, who has been blessed by heaven and is the kind of person with great luck?
Feng Jing saw that Pei Lin hadn't spoken for a long time, with a thoughtful expression on her face, so she sighed and continued.
"I know that this matter is unpredictable and difficult for people to believe. I never told anyone about it in the past, but now that the prince and I have been together, many things cannot be hidden. If the prince does not believe it,
Then there’s nothing I can do.”
Pei Lin did not continue to doubt, but looked at her with complicated eyes: "I have underestimated you in the past."
Feng Jing didn't want to dwell on this topic, so she quickly changed the topic and asked Pei Lin.
"Look at the recipes I just mentioned, are they feasible?"
Speaking of this, Pei Lin reached out and grabbed Feng Jing's hand with a deep look in his eyes.
"Okay, why not? If you take out any of the items you mentioned, you will make a lot of money, let alone the four items. I will ask Beili to hand it over to you later. By the way, how many shares do you want to hold?"
Feng Jing thought for a while and said: "Thirty, you must be worrying about these things after all. I only give out the formula, and thirty is already too much."
Pei Lin agreed: "Okay, let's do as you wish. Later, I will ask Beili to make a contract."
