The remaining 90,000 people who pass the assessment will still be in the Forbidden Army, but their salary will be reduced. After passing the assessment, their salary will be raised back.
Some who failed the examination were either transferred to local garrison or went home directly.
Then here comes the problem.
"When I selected the Forbidden Army generals from the local garrisons, I promised that as long as they entered the Forbidden Army and did not violate military regulations, I would let them stay in the army safely until they are forty years old."
"But now that I plan to let them leave the Forbidden Army, I must have broken my promise. How can I keep my word? I must give them a large sum of money as compensation."
"So Li Aiqing, if you, the head of the household department, think faster, Dasheng will need you everywhere."
Li Qiao: "..."
He is stressed.
But what a coincidence.
"Wei Chen must do his best."
"However, Your Majesty, I have a favor to ask of you."
"Huh? You say."
Sheng Hong became interested.
This is the first time Li Qiao begged him.
"Weichen wants to open a new shop..."
Li Qiao started to talk about the meaning of logistics. Sheng Hong listened very seriously and interrupted Li Qiao twice to ask for some details.
"... Mr. Weichen is really worried about Weichen's safety, so Weichen would like to ask you to introduce some good players to Weichen. Those you introduce must have good skills and good character."
"Now you said that the imperial army assessment will screen out some soldiers. Wei Chen was thinking, why don't we hand over those who need to go home to Wei Chen? The wages in Wei Chen's shop are very high."
"In this way, you don't have to pay compensation, and the minister can also get people."
"Of course, if there are too many people coming to Weichen in the end, then you will take over the business, and Weichen will just get some share as before."
After all, these were soldiers who had just retired from the Forbidden Army and were somewhat sensitive. Li Qiao did not want to arouse Sheng Hong's suspicion.
Anyway, Tao Zhu only valued his safety and didn't care about this business.
He doesn't lack this business either.
Therefore, it doesn’t matter if it is left to Sheng Hong.
In fact, in the logistics industry, Sheng Hong's endorsement is better than that of a third-grade official like him.
Sheng Hong’s credibility is pretty good.
When the people saw that this business was run by Sheng Hong, they would definitely be willing to consign their goods to Li Family Logistics.
"Hmm..." After hearing what Li Qiao said, Sheng Hong thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, just as Li Aiqing said."
Li Aiqing always acted openly, and he was unwilling to doubt Li Aiqing. Now that Li Aiqing was willing to hand over this business to him, he would accept it.
Li Qiao returned home in the evening and told Tao Zhu what Sheng Hong had said. Tao Zhu was surprised and happy at the same time.
This went smoothly beyond his expectation.
However, Sheng Hong actually wants to reorganize the Forbidden Army because of the fifth prince's rebellion?
Sheng Hong’s requirements are so strict.
"However, it is indeed better to be stricter in Shengjing."
"Yes, we are just waiting for the Holy One to send people over. Before that, let's buy some manpower and start up the takeout business of our own store so that everyone can know what logistics is."
Li Qiao said with a smile.
"Okay!" Tao Zhu nodded heavily.
He wanted to buy it before, but Li Qiao was too busy and met the fifth prince who rebelled, so the matter was delayed.
Soon it was Li Qiao's holiday, and all the people from Shengjing came. Li Qiao and Tao Zhu spent a whole day choosing, and finally selected twenty-five people.
These twenty-five people were all young men. Tao Zhu gave them a little training and then let them take up their posts.
By the way, in addition to the takeout from his own shop, Tao Zhu also arranged a new job for them: grocery shopping.
Although the north of the city is not as good as the east of the city, the people living here are from good families. If their families are good, they will naturally have servants, so there is no need for Li family logistics.
But Tao Zhu doesn't care, he doesn't expect to make money anyway, he just wants to introduce to the public what Lijia Logistics is.
Therefore, he put out a small advertisement in this area in the north of the city. If anyone needs fresh vegetables and meat, they can make a reservation with Lijia Logistics the day before. Lijia Logistics will deliver the freshest vegetables the next morning. and meat delivered to your door.
And people only need to pay a penny to enjoy this service.
In the entire north of the city, Shuli Qiao had the highest official position, so Tao Zhu advertised with great confidence. He was not afraid of offending people or deliberately making things difficult for him.
However, he underestimated Li Qiao's influence at this time.
Although Li Qiao was also a popular person in front of Sheng Hong before, at that time Li Qiao had offended the British Duke and the fifth prince. In addition, the third prince was still there, so the whole situation was unclear. Therefore, most of the officials in the DPRK and China maintained meetings with Li Qiao. Greeting relationship.
But now the situation is clear.
The fifth prince is gone, and Sheng Hong seems to be able to remain the emperor for another ten years, but officials are all shameless. He had no contact with Li Qiao before, but now Baba is leaning towards him. This doesn't mean they are just outsiders.
Therefore, many people are embarrassed to visit without finding a suitable reason.
But now Tao Zhu has taken the initiative to promote the Li family's new business in the north of the city. This is an opportunity that has come to his door!
As a result, there was a sensation in the entire north of the city that day. Not only the wealthy businessmen who lived here came to order vegetables and meat, but also the families of officials who lived here came one after another. These people almost broke the threshold of the Li family——
In order to support his own logistics business, Tao Zhu made the appointment at his own home instead of the house where his servants lived.
Tao Zhu was shocked.
Li Qiao was also shocked when he returned home.
But finally my heart fell back into my stomach.
It was obviously abnormal that few colleagues had emotional contact with him before. He was the popular person in front of Sheng Hong.
It's finally normal now.
Chapter 157 Logistics opens up the situation, Shenghong takes it back. It’s getting cold.
Li Qiao's business depends on quality. He knew that everyone came to support him to build a relationship with him and would definitely give Li Family Logistics a good review, so he specifically told the twenty-five new boys to ensure quality and quantity. Hurry, don't smash the Li family's sign.
These twenty-five new boys are said to be more than a year old, full of gold and jade, prosperous and prosperous, with spring and bright scenery, fragrant fruits and vegetables, and more than ten thousand books in reading.
Tao Zhu transferred Zhao Shen from the dim sum shop and put him in charge of the logistics business.
Compared with duck shops and hot pot shops, the dim sum shop has the most stable business and does not require Zhao Shen to keep an eye on it.
Compared with Li Dashan and Li Ershan, Zhao Shen was smart and more suitable for dealing with wealthy businessmen and petty officials in the north of the city.
Zhao Shen got the task and took it very seriously.
But this was a new business, and even his Uncle Qiao didn't have much confidence, so he couldn't make any mistakes, lest this new business fall into his hands.
The twenty-five new boys were arranged into the Sanjin courtyard where Li Qiao Taozhu lived before. At midnight the next day, Zhao Shen went out to the Sanjin house and led the twenty-five boys who were younger than him. The boy who was not a few years old went to the vegetable market.
Because it was the first day of trial operation, Tao Zhu only took 100 orders yesterday.
This was not much, and those who placed orders seemed to be afraid of causing trouble to Tao Zhu. Everyone ordered a small amount of vegetables and meat. Zhao Shen quickly bought everything with the order in hand.
These twenty-five boys were already very familiar with the north of the city, so Zhao Shen divided them into five, and divided them into groups of five according to the area to deliver the goods to each door.
And those who placed orders for vegetables and meat, such as some wealthy businessmen, were already waiting at home.
They rarely have the opportunity to come into contact with Tao Zhuli Qiao. The order was placed in front of Tao Zhu yesterday. Although they don't know if Tao Zhu still remembers them, they take it very seriously, so they wait at home obediently.
And, running errands and buying groceries?
This service is really fresh.
Hearing the knocking at the door, these people quickly opened the courtyard door.
Standing at the door were the clerks from Li Family Logistics whom I met yesterday at Li Family. These five clerks were wearing uniform brown cotton shorts, with the four characters "Li Family Logistics" prominently embroidered on their chests.
When the five young men saw them opening the door, they immediately put smiles on their faces. They first greeted them and made sure they were the ones who placed the order yesterday, and then handed over the vegetables and meat they bought yesterday.
These vegetables and meats are placed in exquisite bamboo baskets. The bamboo baskets are brand new, the vegetables are juicy, and the meats are fresh.
And the prices are clearly written.
After these people confirmed that it was correct, they paid for the vegetables and meat, and then paid a penny to the Li family clerk.
Then this transaction is completed.
Li family.
Li Qiao went to work, and Tao Zhu stayed at home to take care of the children as usual. It rained yesterday, and although it wasn't heavy, it rained for a full day, which immediately suppressed Qiu Laohu's momentum. .
Although it was sunny today, the temperature did not rise back up, so Tao Zhu was going to take out the autumn clothes that had been in the closet for half a year and dry them in the sun.
Two days ago, the Ministry of Works sent two walkers for the two cubs to play with.
After continuous improvement by the Ministry of Industry, today's walkers have become sophisticated and diverse in shape.
Li Changfeng's chubby friend's walker is in the shape of a tiger and looks majestic.
Li Yunfan's little chubby friend is in the shape of a cat, small and cute.
The two little guys had already used walkers when they were learning to walk, but walkers at that time had a single shape, and they learned to walk in the walker purely based on instinct.
Now that they are almost one and a half years old, they have their own little preferences. As soon as these two walkers were delivered to them, they fell in love with them.
In fact, they both knew how to run long ago and no longer needed the walker, but they still played for half a day every day.
The two of them are interested in walkers, which just allows Tao Zhu to do other things, and Li Xia can take care of them both.
Since the clothes were taken out to dry, Tao Zhu simply pulled out the bedding.
Just after I finished my work, Mrs. Wen came.
Sister-in-law Wen attaches great importance to Zhou Yun's pregnancy. When Tao Zhu was pregnant, the Seventh Prince specially sent Doctor Chen and Chef Zhao to live in the Li family. She came here today to ask Tao Zhu whether Doctor Chen and Chef Zhao were pregnant. Some exclusive anti-fetal prescriptions, meals, etc.
Although Tao Zhu is a younger brother and Zhou Yun is a woman, and everyone's symptoms after pregnancy are different, Sister Wen feels that Dr. Chen is recognized by the Seventh Prince, and it is better to know about it than not to know about it.
