Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 2414 Not in time

  『Is it called no clothes? In the same robe as the son. Wang Yuxing taught me to repair my spear. The same hatred with the son. 』

  『How can I say no clothes...』

  In the school grounds outside the lecture hall on the outskirts of Chang'an, soldiers shouted in discordant voices. Anyway, this is a martial arts lecture hall, not a concert, and whether the rhythm is correct is not within the scope of consideration at all, but whether the voice is loud or not, and whether it is imposing enough.

  Ma Yan led several instructors and stood beside him. Although his face was serious, there was warmth in his eyes. He is getting old now, and he really can't lead him in the army. After all, people like Lian Po and Huang Zhong, who are old and strong, are still a minority. All kinds of youthful injuries lead to this or that problem.

   Mayen is no exception.

It's a pity that Ma Yan's knowledge level is not very high. He understands some things, but he can't explain them. Therefore, he can only take the position of a butler in the martial arts hall, responsible for some chores, disciplinary pickets, etc., to teach and teach in detail. Ma Yan Still can't do it.

Most of the middle and low-level non-commissioned officers who participated in the training in the martial arts hall did not have the opportunity to advance to a higher level. They would complete basic literacy and arithmetic assessment tests, battlefield detection and tactical analysis, etc. in the martial arts hall. Some people will stand out in this process, while others will be eliminated and lose the opportunity to improve.

  Under the hussars, the army is still the most desirable occupation for ordinary people.

Among the hussars, not only are the salaries high, but there is also a matching system of meritorious service, and pensions for those who die in battle. Even if he becomes a local commander or thief Cao, even if he does nothing, he just exchanges military merits for acres of land, and the knowledge he has learned in the army is enough to become admired by his surroundings in the local area.

  In addition, the soldiers under the hussars have a high degree of military honor. Professional soldiers cultivated by strict military discipline are naturally more disciplined than the ordinary recruited soldiers of the big man. Coupled with the propaganda of military newspapers, storytelling, five-party Catholicism, etc., and a set of red and black shirts that can be taken home after retiring, they are respected by ordinary people on the road. If there is some meritorious service, even the blind date of children is much better than ordinary households.

  For those refugees who migrated from other places, if they get married with the families of soldiers under the hussars, it is basically equivalent to standing on their feet...

  In the past few years, Hussar Generals have been marching steadily, and the demand for soldiers has also increased with the increase in territory. There is an urgent need to expand the front-line combat troops, and the martial arts hall has also made new adjustments according to changes in the situation.

Originally, the lecture hall was only aimed at the soldiers who won the competitions in the army, as well as the middle and low-level military academies, but now the Hussar General said that he would expand the lecture hall. The battalion was merged into the lecture hall, so that the lecture hall not only faced the middle and low-level military academies, but also included the training of these recruits.

   As for Ma Yan, when he gets older, he likes to see some young people.

  But these energetic young people also represent this one thing.

   Messy with exuberant qi and blood.

General Hussars's training method originated from later generations, but after improvements by Xu Huang and others, it has now become more suitable for the current situation of the big man. The strict military discipline is almost squeeze-style training, and this training mode, for Originally, those refugees, or people who were used to suffering, were generally able to bear it.

  After entering Guanzhong Sanfu, as the scope of conscription expanded, the composition of soldiers gradually became more complex. When faced with harsh training and military discipline, some people inevitably rebounded.

Feiqian's reform this time is to focus on Ma Yan and set up an instructor corps, changing the original recruit training mode of a single general to the instructor corps system, and the training method has also been slightly changed to make it adapt to A wider range of military sources.

  Although corporal punishment and beating and scolding in the army are still the same, according to the new drill code, the instructors have also added some methods to soothe soldiers' emotions, such as singing, wrestling, Cuju, etc., so that the tense nerves of soldiers can be adjusted to some extent.

  Ma Yan watched, and then saw another instructor leading these brats to practice, and walked into the martial arts hall with his hands behind his back.

  Compared to the single mode of training the generals, the instructor system has both advantages and disadvantages.

  Single recruits train the main general, although the quality of the recruits must be guaranteed, but it will inevitably cause the recruits to be contaminated with some habits of the main general. For the next assignment, it needs an adaptation process. The recruit-instructor model is based on drills, supplemented by instructors, and multiple instructors take turns to train, so there will be no problem of behaviors that are allowed by one instructor but prohibited by the other side.

  For example, when training new recruits in Xu Huang's hands, the heavy infantry is undoubtedly more favored by Xu Huang, the rest of the arms...

   This is roughly the case.

   It's just that the pawns trained in the instructor mode will be worse than those trained by a single general, especially an excellent general. This is unavoidable.

  For example, when Xu Huang trains soldiers, Xu Huang is responsible for the quality of the recruits, and Xu Huang also has to worry about his reputation.

   It's just that more soldiers are needed now, and the single-commander model does restrict the number of recruits trained.

  The recruits are training outside, and in the martial arts hall, there are middle and low-level military academy non-commissioned officers from all over the place.

  Seeing Ma Yan approaching the gate of the martial arts hall, a chief official in the courtyard greeted him. This person is from Xiliang. He lost his hand in the Battle of Chang'an, and was assigned to serve as a patrol inspector in Pingyang for a period of time. Later, he was transferred here to serve as an assistant officer in the lecture hall.

The assistant officer followed Ma Yan and walked in together, and said: "Most of the non-commissioned officers of the military academy for the training camp have arrived, and some have not yet arrived. Most of these who have not arrived are from Sichuan, Sichuan and Longyou. The journey is a little longer. 』

  『So when will these people arrive? ’Ma Yan asked.

  The assistant officer thought about it and said: "It should be soon, the people from Longyou will arrive first... The people from Sichuan and Shu, it will probably take another ten days..."

  Talking along the way, we arrived at the dormitory area for middle and low-level non-commissioned officers who participated in the training.

The recruits outside lived in tents, while the non-commissioned officers who participated in the training in the martial arts hall lived in Datong bunk. There was a toilet next to every five large rooms, and the bathhouse had to go to a farther place. There is a well, and there are still many ordinary non-commissioned officers queuing up to fetch water.

  Seeing Ma Yan coming in, these non-commissioned officers participating in the training stopped what they were doing, or greeted them from a distance, or came forward to say hello to Ma Yan.

   After all, Ma Yan is a veteran for many years and knows many people.

  Ma Yan stopped, pointed to a person and said, "Well, I remember you, you were recruited in the first year of Taixing, and you were pulling fibers on the big river back then!" Then I followed General Xu, right? It looks much stronger now! Are you married yet? 』

  『Report to the general! We got married three years ago, and now we have two children! All boys! 』

  Ma Yan laughed, patted the man on the shoulder, "Not bad. This time, we must seize the opportunity to study hard so that we can get promoted again in the future! 』

  Ma Yan looked around at the non-commissioned officers who surrounded him, "You too! My lord has built a martial arts lecture hall, give you these opportunities, you must cherish them! Study hard, hear? 』

"heard it! ’ The non-commissioned officers responded in haste.

  Ma Yan nodded and said, "One more thing...have you seen those recruits outside?" You have to set an example for them! I haven't given you practice these few days, so you can't relax yourself! In a few days, when your people are due, you have to set rules for these recruits! You are their rules! When the time comes, if anyone has loose bowels, just go back where they came from! Ugly words first! 』

"Do not worry! 』

  『It will be fine then! 』

"Row! we have a deal! Ma Yan waved his hand, "It's gone, it's gone!" Go and do yourself a favor! 』

  The non-commissioned officers gradually dispersed.

  Ma Yan smiled, and then continued to move forward, "By the way, are the food supplies ready?" 』

  The assistant officer took two steps forward, "It's all ready, yesterday the Chamber of Commerce transferred all the supplies to the warehouse, I will show the list to the general when I turn around..."

  『There is no deduction, or is it shoddy? Have you checked everything? ’Ma Yan asked again.

  『I think it’s okay, there’s nothing wrong with it...Why don’t the general go to the storeroom when he’s free? ’ said the assistant officer.

  『Have the people from the Dahan Chamber of Commerce learned how to behave? ”Ma Yan chuckled, “Let’s go, you still have to watch it before you rest assured... You and I must be careful in this martial arts training, so that we can live up to our lord’s entrustment...”

  …(^ω^`)…

  In the mansion of General Hussars, Fei Qian and Pang Tong Xunyou are also doing accounts.

  Pang Tong was on the sidelines, and suddenly threw his pen away, "The Son of Heaven came to the Dahan Chamber of Commerce to buy supplies again, and he must be in debt again!" The money is owed and owed, and it will not be given later! And those who follow the emperor to buy officials are simply shameless! Last year's money was not settled, what about the previous year? Want to buy it again this year! 』

   Fei Qian smiled, then glanced at Xun You and said, "What does Gongda think?" Should it be sold to the emperor this year? 』

  Xun You also put down his pen and said: "This matter... what I am worried about is not money, but the matter of purchasing, I am afraid it may not be..."

  Pang Tong laughed and said, "Does this need to be said?" What do you see? If so many sachets and spices from the Western Regions are used by the emperor alone, would they hang all over his body? This is not a pickle...」

"Ok? Pang Shiyuan..." Fei Qian almost couldn't bear it, he glared at Pang Tong and said, "Shut up. 』

   Xun You coughed, pretending that he didn't hear anything just now.

After a while, Fei Qian said: "If ordinary merchants are half-buyed and half-owed like this, and they don't pay back the money after a few years, basically the merchants will not be able to last long. It may be that the family is ruined in the end... But for us, it is not enough. What a big deal…”

  Pang Tong said: "The key is that every year, the more we owe, the more goods we have to get. After a few years, we will become more and more arrogant, and even don't want to give us money!" 』

  Xun You sighed slightly. He was mainly in charge of finance and civil affairs. Seeing these money and goods sent to Shandong for nothing, even in the name of the Son of Heaven, he still felt a little anxious and dissatisfied.

   This anxiety is multifaceted, not just about money…

In the early days of Tianzi’s purchases, it was still good. What he wanted were some ordinary commodities, and those for daily expenses were not considered valuables. They were all precious things, which made Xun You feel more helpless and sad.

  Emperor Liu Xie, do you really not know about this?

  Indeed, as long as Fei Qian didn't raise the flag to rebel here for a day, then these things should generally be played according to the rules of the big man's game.

   The Shaofu of the emperor of the Han Dynasty purchased some things the emperor needed. Is there any problem?

   It’s not that I don’t give money, it’s just that it’s less and there’s a delay…

  In history, this kind of thing did not only happen in the Han Dynasty, isn't the charcoal burner an example?

  『Then... my lord, what the emperor bought this year...』 Xun You asked with some embarrassment, "How should I deal with it? 』

  『Don’t give them! ’ Pang Tong said, ‘Many of these must not be what the emperor wants! If you really need it, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand, it’s become a habit to pay back what you owe...』

  Fei Qian pondered for a while, then smiled and said: "Is there any idea, I still give it to..."

  Pang Tong sat up straight, "My lord! 』

  Fei Qian waved his hands and said, "It's a little troublesome to explain..."

  Because Fei Qian is not only looking at these commodities, he pays more attention to those things after the commodities.

  For Pang Tong and Xun You, or most of the Han natives, they are not very clear about the power of commodity shocks. In the current economic environment of Dahan, the daily needs of quite a few ordinary farmers are very low. Of course, these ordinary farmers do not have much money, let alone consumption.

And for a farmer family, even if they have some spare money, most of them will invest in the most basic food and clothing, and at most buy some production tools, such as saving some money to buy a cow, If you have a little more money, you can build a house for your children to marry a wife, etc., such as some handmade products, expensive consumer goods, etc. Basically, these ordinary farmers have nothing to do with them.

  In the previous Han economic environment, most of the handicraft industry was generated around the needs of the children of the gentry, because these children of the gentry are the most important consumers, and only these people can afford money.

   But now, something is different.

Although many people don't want to admit it, they have to say that Guanzhong Sansuke's goods are indeed more exquisite and more useful than those in other regions. That's why it attracts caravans and brings these goods to other states and counties for sale. . Then, in the process of selling these commodities, there was an impact on handicraftsmen in other regions intentionally or unintentionally.

  In the current Han Dynasty, in the system of small-scale peasant economy, handicraft workers were very vulnerable. On the one hand, these handicraftsmen are an indispensable part of social production, and on the other hand, the laws and regulations of the Han Dynasty are quite contemptuous of these handicraftsmen.

   It's like despising Liu Bei as a straw sandal seller...

  Zhuge Liang often said that he "plowed in Nanyang", but after Liu Bei became an official, he never said that he was a handicraftsman or a straw sandal seller.

  Being lame by Confucianism for three to four hundred years, I think that apart from "scholars", "farmers" are decent people, and "workers" and "businessmen" are not serious.

   In addition, the protection for handicraft workers is not enough. If you get sick or injured, you can't give birth. The whole family will die. What does the loss of craftsmanship have to do with the noble sons?

   Innovation?

nonexistent.

  When you see a good one, you take it and throw it to the handicraftsman of your own manor,

  『Can you do it? 』

  『If you can do it, do it! 』

  Copyright?

   is even more of a joke.

   Not to mention the life, even the things after death belong to the children of the gentry.

  『What is unreasonable? 』

  『I represent the principles of the big man! 』

  Under such conditions, what good life can the handicraftsmen of the big man have?

Even if there are local protections in later generations, they often cannot withstand the impact of some commodities. What's more, in the Han Dynasty, almost no sons of the gentry have such a concept. where is the problem.

In Feiqian, the bachelor of engineering provides scientific research progress and reform, and the craftsman system guarantees the interests of craftsmen and handicraftsmen. Gradually large-scale production reduces the cost of products, and a large number of commodities are cheaper and more exquisite. The current situation impacted the production sequence in other regions. During this process, some handicraft workers could not keep up with Fei Qian, lost their jobs, went bankrupt, and in an environment like Dahan who did not pay much attention to handicraft workers, most of them became refugees. Had to flee, or engage in something completely different from the original, such as selling coolies and so on.

  One year, two years, three years...

Don't look at the many products that Feiqian has now, they are almost sold at low prices, sometimes even at a loss, just like this item purchased in the name of the emperor, but in fact, in the long run, Feiqian is not Not bad.

  The things that are free are often the most expensive.

  In the sales list of commodities, Feiqian gradually provides more semi-finished products and finished products, while the commodities sold from Shandong are more raw materials...

  『Just give it to them...』 Fei Qian said with a smile, 『It’s not that I can’t afford it... Shi Yuan don’t mind. What's more, if you don't give it, the emperor's face will not look good, will he? 』

  『This... is very valuable...』

  『It is the responsibility of the courtiers to present the Son of Heaven! No problem, just give it to them! ’ Fei Qian laughed, “What’s more, it’s not the time yet…”

  『Not yet? 』Xun You frowned slightly. He thought that what Fei Qian said was that it was not time to turn his face, which made him somewhat uncomfortable, because he didn't know whether Fei Qian was targeting the Shandong gentry or the emperor at this time.

  Pang Tong was also thinking about Fei Qian's "not in time". He pondered for a while, then looked at Fei Qian, seemed to think of something, rolled his eyes a few times, and then nodded...
