Chapter 1678-Military Pay
that the king of Zhao does not fief the land and lives in the capital, why do he need to be pro-soldiers""your Highness, that is a poor remark."Zhao Xuanji did not back down and said, "since you have...Chapter 1678 military pay
misunderstanding is a misunderstanding, which can be solved by making it clear.
but since he cooperated with the performance, there should be some "reward", of course.
Huang Jitian can only pray that Li Chen will not open his mouth a little later.
Wang en, who had no idea about these intrigues, looked at Li Chen, took a deep breath and said, "the villain needs 52."
52.
the exit of this number, the expressions of people around them are very strange.
for ordinary people, 52 is really a lot of money.
is that in previous years, when the weather was favorable in the Qin Empire, the annual income of a household would not exceed five or six taels of silver, and 52 was equal to the income of the whole family for ten years, which was a huge sum of money.
but compared to the status of Li Chen, the imperial crown prince, 52 is a bit insulting.
is a meritorious escort worth only $52
other people's expressions are strange, but Li Chen doesn't care. Instead, he takes a tone like spring breeze, "well, then tell me, why do you want 52 silver"
Wang en also risked everything at this time. He said: "the villain was originally an ordinary non-official family in a small place in Gansu and Shaanxi. Although he did not have any dignitaries, he managed a few acres of thin land in his family, and his life was more than less than that. But later, his family fell, sold his property, and owed a large amount of debt. The villain had no choice but to join the army at Yueyaguan. Fortunately, Wu Shuai appreciated it and was promoted to be Wu Shuai's personal guard. It's just that the salary of a soldier is so low that even with capital and interest, it is almost impossible to pay off the debt. "
"so the villain wants to beg his Highness for a reward of 52 yuan, send it home to the villain and pay off the debt. The villain is willing to go through fire and water for his Highness."

finished, Wang en slammed his knees and knelt on the snow, kowtowing heavily to Li Chen.
Li Chen bent down and personally helped Wang en up.
whether it is Wang en's not a wonderful story or the 52 yuan, it is a small matter in Li Chen's eyes.
what he saw and heard was the failure of an otherwise wealthy family, and the two key points that the salary of a soldier was too low.
if it is only a family with poor management that leads to bankruptcy and debt, it is not surprising. No matter how beautiful the prosperous times are, there will be ups and downs specific to individuals. It is impossible for the whole country to rise and fall, and everyone is immortal. But Li Chen is very clear that such families are not a minority in the Qin Empire. In recent years, due to famine or war, the political situation of the court was unstable, and countless families were still displaced.
this is a matter that must be taken seriously for Li Chen, the king of this ancient empire.
another thing is that the military pay is too low.
"how much are you paid" Li Chen asked quietly.
in fact, he knows this number.
but if he discovers that the actual pay received by the soldiers does not match the number that Wu Jingcang quoted himself, then a large number of people are bound to roll down afterwards.
"if you go back to the crown prince, as Wu Shuai's pro-army, the salary of the villain is actually quite good. The month before the fixed monthly ration of two stone, two jin of salt and two pounds of silver, and the villain has family members to take care of, so on this basis, he can receive an extra stone of grain and one jin of salt every month. If there is a war, it will be doubled. If there are casualties, the pension will be counted separately."
Li Chen knew it well, and his face relaxed a little quietly.
this figure is exactly the same as the data Wu Jingcang gave himself, and there is no error.p Zhao Xuanji from planning for decades in the imperial court.but what he is afraid of is that when King Wen gets involved in the name of King Qin, there is a good chance that nothing will happen to h...
