Rebirth of the Playboy I

Chapter 97 Military Expenses
Zhou Xingyun, who was a little out of order from the fright, carefully looked at the various expenditures. Among them, [-] million was the salary of the [-] Eagle Guards, and the rest were all kinds of weapons and maintenance costs.

Looking at next year's budget, including the elimination and replacement costs of various weapons, it will be a full 20 ​​billion 400 million.

Well, Zhou Xingyun couldn't understand those a lot of technical terms, he only saw the total budget.

All these expenses have to be borne by the old Zhou family themselves, and the treasury of the Ming Dynasty will not pay a penny.Moreover, it was paid by the old Zhou family itself, not the Zhou family, which means that all the money must be paid by Zhou Xingyun himself.

Who told this to belong to Liang Guogong's private guard, not the private guard of the Zhou family.

However, in the Ming Dynasty where guns are strictly prohibited, being able to support a team of private guards is an absolute honor.

Except for Dongtai Wang Zheng's family, there are only two of them, and there is no semicolon.

But thinking about the annual expenditure of more than 20 billion Ming coins, it makes people feel a ball of sadness.

No wonder the unscrupulous old man is so stingy, he was forced by money.

Sister, raising a private guard is really not a job for ordinary people.

"Zhou Wei, have you reported this year's military budget to the Duke?"

He couldn't afford the money at all, and Zhou Xingyun didn't think that the unscrupulous old man who knew his family background would let him pay.

"The lord said that everything is up to the son to decide."

Clasping his hands into fists, Zhou Wei replied flatly.

"Test."

Zhou Xingyun's mood was already in a state of torrential rain.

More than 20 billion, let him rob the bank.

Well, there are private guards. It seems that robbing the bank in Qingping Mansion is a good choice, but I don't know if there is 20 billion in cash in the bank.

Well, let him fantasize first.

"Primary brother, call."

"Hey."

Zhou Xingyun picked up the call without looking at who was calling.

"Son, the ancestor worship ceremony is over!"

"Dad, the military expenses..."

Hearing the voice of the unscrupulous old man, Zhou Xingyun was overjoyed for a moment, and he didn't even care about asking how the two elders were doing, and directly asked about the military budget.

If this unscrupulous old man really doesn't care, then he is really going to rob the bank.

At this time, Zhou Wei quietly exited the door without the prince's signal at all.

"...Son, ask dad for money as soon as you open your mouth, and don't ask how your mother and I are doing. This is not what a good son should do."

Lying on the beach chair with his legs crossed, Zhou Hejun looked around at the beauties in bikinis and said something teasingly.

"Dad, how are you and Mom doing?"

Zhou Wei was still waiting outside the door, Zhou Xingyun could only swallow his breath and ask.

"Well, your mother and I had a great time. Son, how do you feel when you go back to your hometown to host the ancestor worship ceremony?"

Zhou Hejun couldn't help but become a chatterbox as his son's temperament changed.

You know, in the past ten years, he was too embarrassed to joke with this taciturn son.

If there is a chance, we must calculate the general accounts of the previous ten years.

It's fun to tease my son.

"As long as you and mom are having fun, I'm fine too. Dad, what about the military budget of the Eagle Guard?"

Gritting his teeth and speaking word by word, Zhou Xingyun once again shifted the topic to the military budget.

Now, he is not in the mood to talk about other topics with the unscrupulous old man.

"Here, I just transferred some money to your account, please check it."

After pressing the transfer confirmation button on the tablet, Zhou Hejun said with a smile.

It's really easy not to go to my hometown to take care of those troublesome things.

"Okay, I hope you and Mom have a good time."

Feeling the vibrating sound of the text message on the mobile phone, Zhou Xingyun hung up the phone after saying a word, and hurriedly opened the text message on the mobile phone to read it.

"2224000000."

After counting the numbers displayed above, it was really not too much, and Zhou Xingyun didn't even want to complain.

However, this unscrupulous old man is definitely a small treasury, and he transferred 20 billion when he said transfer.It's a pity that none of the money belongs to him, and it will be paid out soon.

Let Zhou Wei from outside the door come in, Zhou Xingyun approved the military budget for next year on the spot, so as not to worry about the large balance in Cardi.

In the past two lifetimes, he had never seen so many deposits. Thinking about those zeros made people extremely excited.

Let him calm down first, calm down.

As the private guard of the old Zhou's family, the Eagle Guards will not have any corruption. The heavy honor and the annual salary comparable to that of a senior white-collar are enough for everyone to work hard for it.

What's more, there are special personnel to supervise the use of these funds.

Tired Zhou Xingyun rested in bed all afternoon and didn't get up until dinner time.

Following the lead of the beautiful butler, they came to an extremely spacious auditorium. As soon as Zhou Xingyun entered, the noisy auditorium fell silent instantly. Everyone stood up and bowed down to greet him: "I have met you."

"Everyone sit down and be casual."

After experiencing the battle in the morning, Zhou Xingyun obviously calmed down a lot when he spoke.

What's more, in his previous life, he was considered a small manager with dozens of people under his command. These people in front of him are no different from his subordinates.The most important thing is that this is a family banquet now, not to be majestic, it's better to be more easy-going.

When the crown prince took the main seat, everyone sat down and looked at the main table quietly.

Feeling the gaze of thousands of eyes on the field, Zhou Xingyun picked up a glass of wine and stood up: "At the beginning of the new year, I wish you all the best and a happy family reunion."

"Thank you, son."

At the same time, they stood up and held up their wine glasses, and everyone responded loudly.

After being seated again, the atmosphere became lively again.

The people present have basically experienced these years of banquets, and they don't have too much restraint, so they can do whatever they want.

Looking at the lively scene in the arena, Zhou Xingyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, facing so many people, he was still under a lot of pressure. After all, the people present here were not ordinary employees, and many of them had made a name for themselves in the official and business circles.

Every year in the ancestor worship ceremony, the clan will check everyone's qualifications, needless to say, those who commit crimes will definitely be excluded.As for how to arrange it, there is already a set of long-standing assessment methods, that is, the contribution to society.

The most concise example, a billionaire who has hundreds of employees in arrears of wages and an ordinary employee who does not pay much but occasionally donates to charity, the former is directly ignored.

Use the most practical measures to put pressure on the tribe and urge them to become people who contribute to society.

As for how to evaluate and how to be fair, there are special personnel responsible and supervised.

This is also one of the secrets of the Zhou clan's invincibility after thousands of years.

In the evening after the ancestor worship ceremony, the old Zhou family would give a banquet to those who came to the ceremony.

Firstly, to thank them for their hard work this year; secondly, to strengthen the bond between the clansmen, the Zhou clan can only develop and grow if the clansmen work hand in hand; thirdly, it is natural to show the presence of the old Zhou family head, By the way, integrate the personal connections of the whole clan. After all, the Zhou clan's glory can only be achieved with the old Zhou family.

As for the seating arrangement, Zhou Xingyun didn't care at all. Anyway, the two tables on his left and right were occupied by clan elders, and it wasn't even fun to talk.

This in itself is a political task.
