Chapter 1125 Give Money Again
Chapter 1125 Give Money Again
Zhou Guo said yearningly: "I don't know when I can go to the capital to take a look."
She still wanted to go and take a look at the emperor's feet.
Zhou Dacang said: "Don't worry, there will always be such a day."
The uncle and nephew talked a lot, most of which was spoken by Zhou Guo and listened by Zhou Dacang.
She talked about the North and family matters, and also let him know what changes had taken place at home during the years he was away.
I heard that Zhou Mai and the others still had no intention of getting married, and that there was only Xiaohua and a younger generation in the family. Zhou Dacang couldn't help but sigh, "Your sister has already given birth to two children after marrying into the Zhao family. Before that, the Zhao family had only one son for three generations. Didn't the Zhao family take away our family's fortune?"
The next generation of his Zhou family will have at least four male children. Can't they have even one more?
Zhou Guo said, "Are you still worried about this? Don't worry, they said that as long as you get married one day, they will follow you to marry a new bride and add a child to the family."
Zhou Dacang shook his head, "Compared with me, these guys."
The two of them had dinner together. After Zhou Dacang helped her pack up, they returned to the tent.
Early the next morning, she was called over by Xu Xiushan.
Except for a few personal soldiers, even Xu Sibei was not in the main tent.
He waved at her, "Come here, Dad will give you something."
Zhou Guo walked over and asked with a smile: "What are you giving me? It's so mysterious?"
Xu Xiushan liked her like this. He smiled and took out a box from his arms, "Here you go."
Zhou Guo opened it and saw that it was another box of banknotes. He couldn't help but ask, "Dad, didn't you say you had no money? Where did you get all this money from?"
The last time I gave her money was at the beginning of this year. It’s not even been a year yet, and the money is back again?
Xu Xiushan waved his hand and said, "It's been almost a year. Wasn't the last time we were short of money at the beginning of the year? It's been a year already and Dad is rich again."
She counted it and this time it was more, four hundred thousand taels!
I couldn't help but ask, "Dad, you gave me this money, do you have money left to pay the soldiers? Otherwise, you can keep this money for yourself, pay the soldiers, or buy new clothes and shoes for the soldiers."
Xu Xiushan said, "I'm keeping it. It's extra. I originally wanted to use it to collect food and grass, but you transferred this food and grass here, didn't you? I'll give it to you with this money. Just think of it as Dad buying you. This is a little less, but Dad only has this much. You can bear the loss, okay?"
He really had nothing left, and the rest had to be kept for paying soldiers and purchasing things. This was the most he could spare.
Zhou Guo thought about it and picked out 100,000 taels from it, "You can't be without money, you can use this 100,000 taels for emergencies, I still have some money, and I haven't spent much of this year's money yet."
Xu Xiushan's face turned serious and he waved his hand, "Just take it. Dad has saved all the money you need. If I say these are for you, then they are for you. If Dad wants more, can't he go and earn them?"
In this world, ordinary people have no money, but in the homes of the rich, money and grain are piled up like mountains.
On normal days, they are rich and unkind, and they bully the people in their hometown. Now is the perfect time to take it out and use it. If you don't help them use it, how will their family use it all?
Zhou Guo put the money into the box neatly, stuffed the box into his arms, and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, Dad. With this money, I can pay monthly wages to the brothers below for a long time."
Xu Xiushan looked at her face which had finally regained some flesh, and sighed, "It's not easy for you either. You need money to support so many people. I heard that you pay your people more than other places?"
Zhou Guo said: "Not really, our own people are different, but those temporary workers are the same as those outside. We can't use all of them up by our family, other families also need temporary workers."
The most important thing is that she doesn't have the ability to pay so many people high wages, so this part of the profit can only be given to her own people.
Xu Xiushan nodded, "You did the right thing. It's not good to be too prominent. It's easy to become a target of public criticism."
"General, the wounded have to be treated and can leave at any time." Xu Sibei came in from outside and saw Zhou Guo was there. He said happily: "You are here too, it's just right, I don't have to look for you."
Zhou Guo smiled and nodded, looking at Xu Xiushan.
Xu Xiushan nodded and stood up. "Let's go and take a look. These brothers have fought through life and death in my Xu Army. Now they are leaving. As the commander, I should go and see them off."
All the generals currently in the off-campus camp are here, and no one knows when they arrived.
"General!"
The general nodded and said, "Let's go and see these brothers off."
More than four thousand people have already stood in the parade ground.
Everyone's face was filled with anxiety about the unknown, not knowing what was waiting for them ahead. Normally, people like them would stay in the camp to do logistics.
They are already useless people.
The other soldiers were also moved. These people’s today is their tomorrow.
Who knows, one day they might become like this too, and who knows where they will be sent.
The generals went up one by one to speak.
Finally, it is Xu Xiushan.
He walked towards the station with steady steps, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.
He was in his fifties or sixties, with no big belly and a tall and sturdy figure. He stood on the platform with his hands behind his back, glanced at the faces of the people below, and spoke slowly.
"You are all the heroes of my Xu Family Army and my wealth. Even though your hands and feet are not as flexible as before, you are still part of my Xu Family Army! You were in the past, you are now, and you will continue to be in the future!"
The people below felt tears in their eyes. Are they still Xu's army?
"It's for your own good that we are letting you leave the camp now. The generals and I have already chosen a perfect place for you!"
He waved to Zhou Guo, "Child, come up."
Zhou Guo walked forward step by step.
She has been walking around like a man these years, and her every move is no different from that of a man.
A gentleman, gentle and unparalleled.
Everyone naturally knew her and knew that she was General Zhou's niece, and now she was General Xu's adopted daughter.
Zhou Guo stood beside Xu Xiushan, looked at the thousands of people below, and bowed sincerely.
The crowd was in an uproar at this moment, because very few important figures would salute them. Even generals would only drink a bowl of wine before leaving. They had rarely seen such a ceremony.
My favorable impression of Zhou Guo couldn't help but grow.
Xu Xiushan pointed at her with a smile in his eyes and said, "This is the child of the Zhou family, and also the child of my Xu family, Xu Anbei. My Xu family army is not going to give up on you, but to give you a new life. You will follow her today, and the young master will guarantee your future and give you a stable life in the rear. Under her, Xu Anbei, is in the hands of my Xu family, you are still the Xu family army!"
