The Soldier of the Red Mansion

Chapter 56 Rules
I didn't expect that the sentry officer I gave up yesterday left on his own at noon today. This is a good thing, as it saved me trouble.

Wang Xin looked very happy.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. The Dusi above them was really unpredictable. They were still nervous, afraid that if they told the Dusi, it would chill the Dusi and make him suspicious of them.

Wang Xin looked at the panel and announced what everyone cared about most.

"There are fifty-seven houses in the camp. I'm going to rent out half of them. The rent will be converted into rice cloth and distributed monthly, per head. Even if it means we'll be a little crowded down there, how do you do that?"

Wang Xin asked.

One tenth of a room.

It became two rooms per room.

Sure enough.

Everyone had guessed it before, and now that they had the confirmed news, they were all very excited.

Li Wu laughed and said, "What's your opinion? If we squeeze together, we won't lose a single piece of meat."

"That's right, the weather is getting colder, brothers, we need to huddle together to keep warm."

"The Yingli River has been withholding more and more of its reserves lately. The coal supply might even be reduced. Even if we don't rent out our houses, we'll all be crammed together, and we won't be able to survive the winter."

Everyone was talking at once.

The atmosphere was fiery.

Finally, the topic came to Dusi again.

"We are so amazing, how come we all thought of this?"

There is rice cloth available.

The sentry officer, who had never said a good word before, began to flatter the emperor.

"fart!"

"That's our company's ability. Even if others think of it, who can they rent it to without our relationship? This is what our company does." Qi Shannian gave a thumbs up.

Wang Xin looked at the panel again.

He scolded, "Don't listen to my nice words. Just renting out the house is not enough. The money is just enough to make ends meet. I still have to find some work. If I tell you to get married, you have to get married."

In the past, everyone loved to hear this.

Who doesn't want to hear good words?

Just listen to it and have fun.

It’s different now, just like the original words, when Dusi said them, Li Wu and others were fine, while Qi Shannian and others stared at Dusi blankly.

Could it be true?
Everyone has completed their requirements and cleaned up the place thoroughly. I have also fulfilled my promise to them. Now I can make new requests. It's not impossible to do so. I just need to be diligent. So I am confident and justified.

"Manager Zhang has agreed to have rice and oil delivered to the camp tomorrow. You can go and get all the men, but I need you to make it clear that I work one day and rest one day here."

Everyone was stunned.

"That's too much to ask." Qi Shannian couldn't help but speak out, and everyone agreed.

Wang Xin was not dissatisfied.

He emphasized a truth to everyone, "Our Great Zhou has enjoyed peace for a hundred years, and the army has not fought any wars. Many people think that soldiers are just eating for free, but this idea is wrong. The longer the peace lasts, the more we need to train our troops, not to mention that the southeast is still not peaceful."

"Serving as a soldier, eating food, and honing one's skills is not only for the people of the court, but also for oneself. If one day one goes to the battlefield and is defeated, wouldn't it be like giving up one's life?"

Li Wu smiled bitterly, "Dusi is right, but in this world, reason is reason, how can it be done?"

"Dusi thinks it's too simple."

"The Beijing camp is different from the local areas. The waters in the Beijing camp are very deep."

Everyone gave advice.

"Whether I can do it or not is my business."

Dusi lost his temper.

Everyone fell silent and dared not speak again.

"I've told you before, when I come to lead you, I first make demands on myself, and then on you. If you are willing to follow me, then you must follow my rules. If I cannot fulfill my promise, then you can overturn my rules."

Soldiers can't even get enough food.

This is what the Dusi often says, so the Dusi is not in a hurry to train the soldiers, but to find food for everyone.

Qi Shannian stopped complaining and began to worry, "Now that the best seedlings have been picked, all that's left are the old and weak. I'm afraid we'll get half the result with twice the effort. The training won't be effective, and it'll be hard to catch up with others."

"so what?"

Wang Xin asked back.

Qi Shannian was confused.

"The title of Marquis is not my intention, but I hope the sea will be peaceful."

"That's what I've heard."

"I'm telling you all today that I'm not here to be your leader just to get promoted or make money. If I were solely focused on getting promoted or making money, I wouldn't have come to the capital. I'd stay in the Yangzhou Salt Road. I could make a lot of money, so why would I bother living a hard life in the Beijing camp?"

"Brothers come from all corners of the world, and we all eat from the same pot."

"Of course, I'm the same as you." "If I have a bite to eat, there must be a bite to eat for my brothers."

"My brothers have no clothes to wear, but I have clothes, so we must wear them together."

A leader who can’t paint a rosy picture is not a good leader.

In fact, I don’t want to make empty promises.

A lifetime is only a few decades long and it passes in the blink of an eye. I just want to live a happy and peaceful life without having to worry too much about other things.

But after drawing the pie, it must be implemented.

What you said just now was correct.

The Beijing camp is really bad.

Wang Xin also saw it with his own eyes.

Then you can only do it your own way.

Eating is the first thing.

The second thing is to unify thoughts.

"I don't care how others lead their troops, and I don't bother to watch. I have my own way of leading troops, and even the gods can't change it. That is to ensure that my men have enough food to eat, practice their skills, and defend our country."

"So eat first, then start a family. Whoever wants to follow me must follow my rules. My rules are very big."

Wang Xin reiterated again.

Then look at the panel.

The room seemed to freeze.

They all stared at Dusi blankly, as if they had become puppets.

"I will be the generals' right-hand man."

a long time.

Li Wu laughed, breaking the silence.

"Then I'll be the general's feet."

Qi Shannian still didn't quite understand, but he thought what the commander said was really exciting, so he followed suit and flattered him.

Wang Xin also knew it.

Many of these people still don’t understand.

It doesn't matter.

The days are still long.

No one can escape your own eyes.

Trying to get away with it.

impossible.

The stronger the foundation, the higher the house can be built.

Rather than neglecting the essentials and pursuing the trivial.

The foundation is like the beach.

Even if you build a castle, it will fall down with just a push.

The Ji Gate.

cabinet.

Staring at the coral-like candle wax on the blue and white candlestick, Chen Yan became distracted again.

Is your decision right?

Chen Yan didn't know.

But I am only a fifth-rank official and my position has not changed for many years.

He was clearly the chief official of the Ministry of War, yet he looked down upon even the Sima of the Beijing Camp. Even though the other party was of the fifth rank, he was an official of the Ministry, so it should be the other party who took the initiative to salute him.

There is also the young commander named Wang Xin.

What is his relationship with the big shots inside?

He was the prime minister who helmed the cabinet for the next two decades. How did the two of them get involved?

I was speaking well of Wang Xin.

It’s better to tell the truth.

Chen Yan hesitated.

When I meet the Prime Minister later, I dare not say a single wrong word.

Go over each word in your mind thousands of times.
