Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 1541 Big reward silver

  After listening to Zhu Ping'an's further explanation of hunger marketing, Liu Mu seemed to understand, but also seemed to understand, roughly at a critical point between understanding and not understanding.

Zhu Pingan was not surprised by this. After all, hunger marketing has surpassed this era for hundreds of years. How can it be so easy to understand, but a great man has a famous saying that true knowledge comes from practice. He patted Liu Mu on the shoulder and said softly, "After a while, you will understand everything."

   "Well, although I don't really understand the hunger marketing that the young master said, it sounds very reasonable. In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. I will do what the young master says." Liu Mu said with a face of trust.

   Seeing the trust on Liu Mu's face, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help feeling emotional. It was their luck, and even his own luck, to meet Liu Mu and the others. Having them by his side really helped him a lot.

After Zhu Pingan sighed, he took out two ingots of ten taels of silver from his arms and handed them to Liu Mu, "Brother Mu, we have rested for more than a day since we wiped out the Japanese pirates and entered the city the day before yesterday, and the celebration banquet should be held. You bring it with you." Twenty taels of silver, take someone to the nearby market to buy a fat pig and a sheep back, you can buy some food with the rest of the money, and you can buy less wine. For the food delivered, our Zhejiang Army will hold a celebration banquet, and at the celebration banquet, each person can drink half a bowl of celebration wine as an exception, just have a taste of it, and have a good time."

   "Your order." Liu Zhuang took the silver, nodded vigorously, turned and drove away.

"Oh, by the way, you bring more soldiers, take this thousand five hundred taels of silver notes, plus the 300 taels of today's sale of secret magic knife sore medicine, and go to the bank on the way back to exchange them for broken silver, preferably For about a tael of broken silver, before the celebration banquet starts, we will hold a reward and commendation meeting to honor the previously promised reward for killing the Japanese."

Zhu Pingan looked at Liu Mu's back, and suddenly patted his forehead. He was writing at his desk for too long, and almost forgot important things. When he remembered, he immediately called Liu Mu, took out a stack of bank notes from his arms, and counted two thousand three hundred The two silver bills were all handed over to Liu Mu, and he was asked to go to the bank to exchange for broken silver so that everyone could be rewarded with silver.

Liu Mu didn't reach out to take the banknote, but looked up at Zhu Ping'an, hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but persuaded bitterly, "My lord, you have been worrying about the military pay for a while ago, running around to raise money. In arrears, last month's salary has not been allocated until the end of this month, it is not easy for you to pay everyone the soldier's salary on time, and this reward will not be paid."

"No, no one can stand without faith! The promised rewards must be fulfilled, so as not to lose the morale of the army! In addition, I was really worried about the military pay a while ago, but we wiped out the Japanese pirates the day before yesterday, and made a fortune from the Japanese pirates. You don't have to worry about the salary in a short time, of course, even if you don't have this windfall, the reward must be cashed, this is the principle." Zhu Pingan patted Liu Mu's shoulder lightly, and firmly put the bank note into Liu Mu's hand , insisted that Liu Mu go to the bank to exchange broken silver.

   "Follow your orders!"

Liu Mu admired Zhu Ping'an's persistence and integrity. He looked at Zhu Ping'an with admiration, nodded vigorously, took the bank note with both hands, and felt deeply moved. His son is really a great man! It's really them who can follow him. Blessing!

Liu Mu got out of the handsome tent and met Liu Dadao who was taking a walk outside to bask in the sun. Liu Dadao learned that Liu Mu was going to go out to the public, so he pestered him to go with him. Liu Mu knew that he was suffocated in bed two days ago. Yes, I wanted to go out for a long time, and now I have the opportunity, I don't want to miss it, I thought about it, and I took him along, anyway, I have to take a lot of people out, and there will be no more him.

  At noon, the Zhe Army camp smelled the smell of pork and mutton, and the fragrance wafted for miles.

  Pork head meat, braised pork, braised pork ribs, big pot stewed pork and mutton, mutton stewed radish, mutton balls.

   Each dish has a strong military barracks characteristics and is served on the table. The meat is a large piece of meat, and the bowl is a large bowl.

   A table full of wine, meat and gourmet food was arranged in the shape of "Hui" around the temporary school yard.

   There is an empty field in the middle of the back shape surrounded by tables.

   "Hey, it's the celebration banquet. Look at the table full of delicious food. Just smelling the smell, the saliva will flow down."

   "Wow, did you see that there is still wine. When will you be seated? I can't take it anymore."

"Hehe, I followed Brother Liu to the market outside to buy vegetables. We spent a full twenty taels of silver on all the ingredients for this celebration banquet. I bought a pig, a sheep and two carts of vegetables. Tell me You guys, the pig we bought weighs three hundred and two taels, and it is a big fat pig."

  As the food and wine were brought to the table, all the soldiers of the Zhejiang Army were led by officers at all levels to the school grounds. Looking at the tables of delicacies and smelling the aroma of wine and meat, all the soldiers drooled one by one.

   "Hehe, the dishes are all served. Let's all take a seat." Surrounded by Liu Mu and others, Zhu Pingan stepped into the open field in the middle of the back shape, and said to the soldiers with a smile.

   "Thank you, sir." All the officers and soldiers thanked each other, and couldn't wait to take their seats under the leadership of the corps leader.

"Today's meal is a belated celebration banquet. It is a celebration for our Zhejiang Army's extermination of the Japanese pirates in Shangyu the day before yesterday. You all did a good job in eradicating the Japanese pirates, and today's celebration banquet is what you deserve."

   After all the soldiers were seated, Zhu Pingan looked at them approvingly and said loudly.

   "They are all well-led by adults."

   "If it weren't for the adults who predicted the enemy ahead of time and planned in advance, let alone exterminate the Japanese pirates, we might capsize."

   All the officers and men spoke one after another, all admiring Zhu Ping'an.

"Hehe, it should be your credit and it's your credit, so don't be polite. Oh, by the way, today's celebration banquet makes an exception to drink alcohol, but each person can only drink half a bowl of wine at most, and there will be severe punishment if there is too much. The boss must earnestly take on the responsibility of supervision and prevent Ben Wu from drinking too much."

  Zhu Ping'an smiled.

   "Oh, it's a pity, with such a good dish, I can only drink half a bowl of wine."

   "Half a bowl of wine is not enough to fit between the teeth."

   Hearing that they could only drink half a bowl of wine, many soldiers could not help but lament.

   "Alcohol is banned in the military camp. Today's celebration banquet, if you make an exception and allow us to drink half a bowl of celebration wine, we will be satisfied."

   "That's right, it's good to drink some."

  Someone could see it, and comforted him with contentment.

   "Before the celebration banquet begins, let's delay everyone's tea time." Zhu Pingan said to everyone with a smile, and then clapped his hands.

   Papa.

  Accompanied by applause, everyone saw eight soldiers, a group of four carrying two heavy large boxes across the crowd into the open space in the back shape.

   "Open." Zhu Pingan Langsheng said.

  Eight soldiers opened the box in response, and there was a burst of dazzling white light

   "Ah, my dog's eyes are about to be shaken blind, so much money."

   "A lot of silver."

   A group of soldiers screamed suddenly.

"When our Zhejiang Army was established, I promised you that every Japanese pirate killed would be rewarded with thirty taels of silver. The day before yesterday, our Zhejiang Army beheaded fifty-seven Japanese pirates in Shangyu, and every Japanese pirate killed would be rewarded with thirty taels of silver. , that’s 1,710 taels of silver. Now, I’ve fulfilled my promise, and the whole 1,711 taels of silver in these two boxes will be distributed to you now.” Zhu Pingan pointed to the two boxes facing each other. The generals said.

   "Long live!"

   "Long live my lord!"

   All the officers and soldiers heard the words, and they were already in high spirits before drinking.
