Not long after, the Qin family announced good news.
Qin Heng, as the representative of the Qin family, announced on his behalf, "Brothers, after our discussion, we decided to give out three thousand taels to reward those individuals who have performed particularly well during this period. There are not many people, only six, each with five One hundred taels. Next, those whose names I read will come forward."
Surprise, this is definitely a big surprise.
Those who have performed particularly well during this period did not expect to be rewarded by the Qin family. This is a pie from the sky.
It can be said that these people basically serve the Qin family. The Qin family's approach is really comprehensive.
The Qin family used this method to tell everyone present: The more you work, the more you will get, and if you perform well, we will all see it.
These six places were all selected from the third and fourth tiers. Those whose names were read were very excited, while those whose names were not read also secretly decided to work harder in the future. Because there is nothing that can touch the hearts of these low-level men more than having their hard work and efforts being seen and remembered by those above.
The Qin family added another fire to the already lively atmosphere.
That night, many men got drunk. After drinking, everyone hugged each other and cried.
They never knew money was so easy to earn.
There is no doubt that this time, the Qin family is the biggest winner. In cash alone, more than 20,000 taels were allocated. Even if 3,000 taels were taken out to reward outstanding performers, there would still be 17,000 taels in cash.
Not to mention, there are three carts of medicinal materials in the convoy, all of which belong to the Qin family alone. The starting capital for these three carts of medicinal materials was the four thousand taels allocated by Qin Sheng, because Lu Songli explained from the beginning that the medicinal materials purchased with this money were intended to be transported to Pingzhou for his own use and not for sale.
In a border area that is often invaded by foreign tribes, medicinal materials are scarce resources, and everyone can understand that.
They had no objection at all to the Qin family taking away so much money.
This income of more than 70,000 taels of silver came from nothing. It was all planned by the Qin family. They were just contributing their efforts. If it weren't for the Qin family's planning, they wouldn't even get a tael of silver.
If someone takes more, that's their ability. They worked hard for half a month. The work was not dangerous and the food and supplies were good. The bosses eat meat, they drink soup, it’s so normal.
Now, these brothers, the minimum is fifty taels of gold, which is five hundred taels of silver, and the most is eight hundred taels, one thousand five hundred taels. In such a short period of time, they have become rich. .
They are not exaggerating. The good land on the outskirts of Chang'an city is ten taels per mu, and five hundred taels can buy fifty acres. The rent collected alone is enough to feed the family for a year.
"Brother, you don't know how hard it is for us escorts. If we stay in the escort agency all the time, we will only get two taels of silver a month. We can make more money by going out as escorts, but when we go out as escorts, we have to keep our heads in our pants. Those on the belt will only earn a few more taels of silver."
"Brother, isn't it the same for those of us who are escorts? Maybe we can have a little more money than you. We escort prisoners twice a year, and we can get fifty or sixty taels of silver. But it's also very hard for us as escorts of prisoners. Throughout the year, countless pairs of shoes are broken. Who understands this suffering?"
"Don't you servants have any gray income?"
"Are you talking about exploiting prisoners? How dare you? Unless the prisoner's relatives take care of it, we dare to take some, but we don't dare to ask for more. We don't dare to exploit and abuse prisoners. If we offend those prisoners who can be rehabilitated in the future, That would bring trouble to yourself and your family, we are not short-sighted people like that!"
"You're right bro, smart."
"Stop talking about this, come on, drink!"
Xu Zheng and Yang Wei were also eating barbecue and drinking wine. They were very restrained and did not get drunk. The two of them were helpless when they saw the people below drinking like this.
This time the two received five thousand taels of silver each. During this time together, they became familiar with each other and couldn't help but ask each other about their next plans.
Yang Wei wanted to wash his hands in the golden basin. He wanted to send the Qin family to Pingzhou safely. After returning, he would carefully consider the matter of washing his hands in the golden basin. With five thousand taels on his back, his family can live comfortably for the rest of their lives.
Xu Zheng disapproved of his idea of washing his hands in a gold basin. Without the protection of Yang Wei's escort agency, wouldn't their little family be like a three-year-old child holding gold bricks and causing trouble? How could this be better? He should use this money to make Yang Wei Escort Agency bigger and stronger.
After hearing this, Yang Wei felt that what he said made sense, and then he couldn't help but ask about his plan.
Xu Zheng did not hide anything from him and told him that after the Qin family was safely sent to Pingzhou, they would move to Pingzhou with their family after returning to Chang'an.
"What?!" Yang Wei shouted excitedly.
"Shh!" Xu Zheng signaled him not to get excited.
Yang Wei took two deep breaths to calm down the excitement in his heart. Forgive him, he was really surprised.
"No, after you return this time, your family will move to Pingzhou?" Are you going to be so exaggerated?
"Well, Jia Ci already had this idea before I set off."
"But ideas are just ideas, and they may not necessarily come true, right?"
"You don't know Jia Ci. Once she decides something, she usually works hard to achieve it. Besides, I personally support this decision."
“Isn’t Chang’an better than Pingzhou, a small border town?”
"Chang'an is good, but you have to be qualified to enjoy the various benefits of Chang'an, such as academies, good masters..."
When Xu Zheng mentioned this, Yang Wei was also discouraged because his son could not enjoy the benefits.
"Are you willing to give up your clothes?"
Xu Zheng smiled and asked him, "You saw the behavior of the Qin family's children just now. Don't you have any ideas?"
Yang Wei thought of the behavior of several children of the Qin family just now. They all saw it, including Chen Changan. He could understand a little bit of their conversation, but he already felt that these children were very thoughtful and powerful.
It was when Xu Zheng saw this scene that he strengthened his determination to move from Chang'an City to Pingzhou. His mother's decision was right. As the saying goes, birds fly far when accompanied by luan and phoenix, and people who accompany virtuous people are of high quality. Those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black.
Mrs. Qin Sixth Young Master is his nephew's biological aunt. It's impossible for her to ignore her biological nephew, right? The children in the family are relatively united, so they should be able to benefit from it to some extent, right? If you are lucky enough to be taught a thing or two by her and influenced by your ears and eyes, you will definitely be more successful in the future than if you were not taught.
Isn't it because adults like them work so hard just for the sake of their children?
He was just an official in Chang'an, not a high official, so he had nothing to let go of. And precisely because he was from Chang'an City, it shouldn't be difficult to find a job in the Yamen when he arrived in Pingzhou.
"Besides this, Chang'an City has other benefits."
"Other benefits, convenience in life? Needless to say, I don't consider this."
"But Pingzhou is on the border and is often invaded by foreign tribes. You have to consider this, right?"
Xu Zheng asked him back, "Do you think those in the Qin family will let themselves and their families be exposed to danger?"
