Chapter 106: Military Expansion Plan
"The benefits of sea trade are far beyond what you can imagine. Although the three major families have poor strength, their financial resources are extraordinary. Once the King of Jinjiang dies, it is like a child holding gold in a downtown area. If you want to protect the family, you must find a support. Moreover, the Chen family knows them well. Once Chen Hongjin takes office, they may all be squeezed out, and there are even more people who kick it away and take advantage of sea trade." Chen Hongjin is really his own lucky star. Without him, the three major families would not be in a hurry to invest heavily in themselves. 30,000 taels of gold can raise many people.
"Sir, do we have to expand our troops?" This was the first time Chen Qiba heard that he was really going to plan Quanzhou, and he was so excited. After fighting Jianzhou, he was a contractor here every day and led a group of soldiers to get the house. It would be better to go back to Jian'ou to be his major general. He had long been tired of it.
"The regiments first increase to 4,000 people, the baggage battalion is upgraded to the regiment, and the law enforcement team is upgraded to the battalion. In addition, a personal military battalion must be established to let the evil dog lead me to guard me. Oh, by the way, I have to pick more than 500 smart ones and send them to the Grand Canyon to get familiar with artillery." In fact, the cavalry battalion should be expanded, but it is impossible to get a horse. Now both battalions are not full, so I can only wait for the opportunity. As for artillery, it is still in a highly confidential state. The details outside the canyon are not more than one-handed, but the artillery must be trained first, otherwise it will be too late to train it when it is needed.
"Sir, are there too many eight battalions under a regiment?" Xu Yi thought, there were five hundred people in a battalion and four thousand people in a battalion, which was not conducive to battlefield command.
"Keep the five battalions unchanged, each battalion increased to 800 people, and the battalion was not moved. The personnel were increased in the team, and each team added one deputy." Sun Yu thought for a while and simply added all the recruits to the bottom team, and then it depends on the situation in the future.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you here. Make a plan. Anyway, after the autumn harvest, I have to recruit soldiers from each county. I'll go to the business bank first. Oh, by the way, let's arrange a place for the evil dog brother and sister to live, it's a little better." After Sun Yu said that, he walked out of the warehouse with big strides.
Sun Yu rode a horse along the street, and Jianpu City was a little more prosperous than when he walked. When Jianpu City was fully completed, he would probably be able to go to a higher level.
Jianzhou Commercial Bank is located at the most prosperous entrance of Jianpu City. It was almost evening and there were still many people in the commercial bank. I guess the business was still good. Sun Yu got off the horse and handed the reins to the employee of the commercial bank guarding him, and then lifted his foot in directly.
"Customer, what do you want to buy?" A beautiful maid came over with tea and handed it to Sun Yu. This is the standard service of Jianzhou Trading Company.
"If you don't buy anything, I'll take a look." Sun Yu took the teacup. Since he didn't know him, he would take a look at how the service was implemented, which was considered an investigation.
"It doesn't matter if you don't buy it. The guest can take a look. If you are interested, I can help you introduce it." The maid smiled and continued to say patiently.
"Not bad, where is your boss's wife." Sun Yu nodded, feeling a bit high-end, and the products are also complete.
"The boss's wife is handling affairs upstairs, and she usually doesn't come down. If you have any matters for the guest, I can convey it on your behalf." A trace of vigilance flashed in the maid's eyes, but she still said with a smile. This person is so alive.
Strangely, when you come to a business store, you actually ask the boss’s wife if you don’t buy anything. That’s what you see casually?
"Well, you go up and report it and say that her husband is here." Her boss actually asked someone to pass on the message, but Ju Yao was also trying to protect herself, so there was no need to make the maid embarrassed.
"Ah, are you the governor? I'll report it now." The maid looked at Sun Yu's age, which was really similar to the rumors. She knew who the boss of her backstage was, but she had never seen it before.
"Dong~Dong~Dong" As soon as the maid went up, she heard a burst of rapid footsteps coming from the stairs. Obviously, Juyao didn't want Sun Yu to wait for a long time.
"I have seen my husband. When will I return to Jianpu?" Ju Yao looked on the stairs and was indeed the one she had been thinking about day and night. She said as she went down the stairs.
"I just arrived, I went to the warehouse to hand over it, and then came here. Are you busy in the business? You should also pay attention to rest." Sun Yu stepped forward and helped Ju Yao up. Maybe he was too busy, and he was much more haggard than when he saw him last time.
"At the beginning, it's always a lot of troubles. In a while, it's much better. This Jianzhou Commercial Bank is the property of the husband, so how dare I relax." Ju Yao also felt a little sour in her eyes. She had to look at the monthly account books for a long time. She had to keep an eye on the semicolons and money shops in various places, and communicated with some foreign merchants. In short, there were endless things to do every day.
"Let's go up first." It's really inconvenient to stand here, in broad daylight.
"My husband follows me." Ju Yao seemed to know Sun Yu's intention, and her face turned red and she raised her foot to walk upstairs. Sun Yu followed behind. Looking at Ju Yao's twisting waist, she felt a burst of nameless fire surging and could not suppress it at all.
"If I have a discussion with my wife, you will be here to guard it, and no one can come up." Sun Yu ordered to the maid below the stairs. It would be rare to pass the world of two people and do not want to be disturbed.
"Don't worry, sir, I'm here to guard it." Although the maid didn't know what was a big deal, she was sure to do it after sir's instructions.
When Ju Yao heard this, her feet suddenly became soft and she almost fell down. Sun Yu's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and he stepped forward to hold her waist.
"My husband has worked hard all the way. I will cook two dishes to treat you to me." Ju Yao's face turned red. She wanted to struggle for a while, but she felt weak all over.
"I'll eat you first, let's talk about the food later." Sun Yu picked up Juyao and headed towards the bedroom. He felt a little hungry at first, but now he was full of other thoughts and didn't have time to eat.
"Mr., this is still in broad daylight." Ju Yao exclaimed in a low voice. This is too anxious.
"For your husband, I love to have fun during the day, and let my wife obey." Sun Yu put Juyao on the bed, closed the doors and windows, and then threw herself on.
......
"My husband, I'll go down and cook some food." When the wind and rain stopped, the sun had already set. Lanterns were hung at the doors of each shop. There was no saying of a curfew in Jianpu City. At this time, there were still people coming and going on the streets.
"Give me an order and just go to the restaurant to buy some. You are tired, so I'll have some wine with me later." Ju Yao was already working hard every day, and she had another trouble just now, and I'm afraid she's exhausted.
Ju Yao nodded, went down to give instructions to the maid, and went back to the room to serve Sun Yu in dressing.
"I'm not going out for the time being when I'm back this time, right?" Ju Yao asked while tying Sun Yu's belt. The two of them were far apart and there were only a few days to stay together.
"Well, you don't have to go far, just stay in Jianpu. The army should be expanded later, and I'm afraid you have to stay in the military camp most of the time." Even if Sun Yu is busy, he still has to go to the military camp frequently. All the soldiers must know who is their real lord. In terms of government affairs, it is not a problem. Anyway, someone will deal with it. The government is out of the gun, so you must not forget this.
"Your husband will do your business if you have something to do. I don't have time to spend more time with you. If Qing'er's sister is here, it would be great." Ju Yao knew that Sun Yu had a concubine in Jiangning, and that was Sun Yu's first woman with a reputation. She was younger than her, so it would be appropriate to call her sister. She was busy with trivial matters in business every day and had no time to take care of Sun Yu's daily life. She felt guilty.
"Oh, I think about it too, why don't you do it? Let's think of something in the future. This time I brought you something and opened it to take a look." Sun Yu handed over a delicate box.
"This is too expensive. I can't take it. I should send it to Sister Qing'er first." As soon as Ju Yao opened it, there were twenty-eight pearls with excellent appearance and size. As long as you find a craftsman to take care of it, it would be the top-notch necklace. However, Qing'er started earlier than herself, so she should give it to her first.
"I have kept Qing'er's part too. I don't understand these jewelry, so I will give it to you. I will find someone to make it first, and I will have a suitable opportunity to take it back." Sun Yu also took out another box, which was also twenty-eight pearls inside, and he didn't know what style it was good to make.
"Mr. Langjun, you said that I have a ruby hanging on this string. As for Sister Qing'er, how about I choose a blue one?" Ju Yao picked up the pearl and looked at it, and decided to add another gem pendant, which would definitely be more beautiful.
"Okay, watch it." Sun Yu touched his stomach, he was really hungry, and the food should have come.
When the food came, Ju Yao added another oil lamp and ordered the jealous crucian carp that her husband liked, for fear that he would get stuck in his throat.
"Ju Yao, why don't you go back to the governor's mansion to live, it will be safer than here." Sun Yu picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"I will stay here for a while first, and then move to the governor's mansion when things are settled." Ju Yao also knew that she would move in sooner or later, and it was not appropriate to live outside. But now there are so many things, so I'd better wait until I'm free to move.
"It's okay, when you want to move, tell me. Even if you enter the governor's mansion, you will be free to enter and exit. Don't worry about keeping you in and out for your husband." Sun Yu had no intention of trapping a woman in the backyard, as she would get sick and had something she liked to do, which was actually quite good.
"Yeah, I know." Ju Yao has always been worried. When she enters the governor's mansion, she will inevitably cause gossip in and out every day. If the husband says this, she can feel more at ease.
