"Master, our military budget for Xiangxi has been released. Please check it out." Ma Xicheng politely handed over the account book.

Wang Zhenyu took the account and looked carefully. The treatment of this army was confirmed in Wuhan. The treatment was as follows: the monthly salary of the brigade was 180 yuan, and the monthly salary of the casualties was 1,800 yuan; the monthly salary of the regiment was 120 yuan, and the monthly salary of the brigade was 1,200 yuan, and the monthly salary of the brigade was 80 yuan, and the monthly salary of the brigade was 1,000 yuan, and the monthly salary of the brigade was 50 yuan, and the monthly salary of the rank was 30 yuan, and the monthly salary of the rank was 30 yuan, and the monthly salary of the rank was 20 yuan, and the monthly salary of the rank was 20 yuan, and the monthly salary of the ranks was 80 yuan, and the monthly salary of the ranks was 80 yuan, and the monthly salary of the ranks was 15 yuan, and the monthly salary of the ranks was 150 yuan, and the monthly salary of the ranks was 80%.

But later, when I was in Nanjing as needed, I made a change and added three subsidies:

Military rank allowance: Non-commissioned officers will make up for five yuan per month, lieutenants will make up for twenty yuan per month, school officials will make up for sixty yuan per month, and general officials will make up for one hundred yuan per month.

Family subsidy: The lieutenant will make up ten yuan a month, the school official will make up thirty yuan a month, and the 80 yuan a month.

Subsidies for senior officers: Regiment-level officers will be compensated ten yuan per month, brigade-level officers will be compensated twenty yuan per month, division-level officers will be compensated thirty yuan per month, and military officers will be compensated fifty yuan per month.

During the war, double salary will be paid, and disability will be compensated at one time at a time at the official position at the level of the official position. At the same time, the Civil Affairs Department of the garrison will be responsible for the production of the registration and payment of 1 yuan of honorary salary per month as living expenses.

If the death is killed, the compensation will be made at 24 times the monthly salary standard of the official position of the member. If there are children, the children will enjoy nine years of free education and ordinary residents will enjoy six years. At the same time, according to the children's wishes and physical conditions, they can be given priority to enroll in military academy studies.

According to this standard and the next expansion plan, the field troops will reach 24,000 and the security troops will reach 12,000. Among them, the monthly salary of the field troops will reach an astonishing 720,000 yuan, and the security troops will also reach 180,000 yuan for the field troops. In other words, it does not count the equipment and logistics expenses, Wang Zhenyu will spend an astonishing 900,000 yuan on the military salary alone. This is still in peacetime, the army is really a bottomless pit.

Wang Zhenyu calculated with his fingers that the industrial construction requires a long time, and the construction of infrastructure such as transportation and model cities is not short. It will be a few years later to create benefits for himself. What he can do now is to use the commercial tax in western Hunan to maintain it.

It seems that I have to rely on bank notes to relieve the finances. The 100 million I have raised now looks scary, but it really doesn’t work much.

Wang Zhenyu did not make any statement about this military budget, but suddenly turned his head to Wan Yaohuang and said: "Director Wan, the military academy is divided into a non-commissioned officer department (mainly training officers below the company, such as platoon leader, deputy platoon leader, department chief, etc., to be selected from middle school graduates and active soldiers for examinations), infantry command department (training officers above the infantry company, and selecting them from officers below the active company based on military merits and recommendations), artillery command department and staff department (training professional military staff personnel), and also set up a strategic research school to specialize in training military intelligence agents and intelligence analysts. As for this military academy, I personally serve as the principal, and you serve as the chief of education. Take the time to start the first phase. Everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as you have a good foundation, it will be easy to handle later."

Wan Yaohuang stood up and said, "Please rest assured, the general will do his best to live up to the general's entrustedness."

Wang Zhenyu pointed to Wan Yaohuang and said, "You guys, it's okay to call me a general now, but they're all humble. They are brothers who have followed me all the way. You don't have to be so reserved. In the future, you are all people in charge of the ruling party and need prestige. Yaohuang, especially you, where did you go on the ship that day?"

Wan Yaohuang's old face turned red and he immediately raised his chest and said, "Yes, Grandmaster, Yaohuang will definitely complete the task."

Wang Zhenyu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "You guys!"

Then I looked at the wall clock on the wall. It was given by Hans, a German. I don’t know what the foreigner thought. He actually gave it to someone if he had nothing to do. Fortunately, I didn’t care about this: “Well, it’s almost six o’clock. I don’t care about food here, I will go home to eat and have a break.”

After saying that, Wang Zhenyu got up and went to find Ye Ziwen. His wife was complaining this morning.

Looking at his cousin who was leaving, Ma Xicheng shook helplessly, and grabbed Wang Zhenbang who was about to pack up the record book and was about to leave, saying, "Fifth brother, you should notify the kitchen. Let us brothers accompany you and invite everyone to have a meal..."

The construction project of the model Xin'anjiang started at the end of July, and the first to break ground was the Xiangxi Army Officer's School. In order to start the project as soon as possible, Wan Yaohuang, who was in charge of military academy affairs at the time, even turned into a rogue and asked Yang Wangui to slap in a scoundrel and forced the engineering battalion directly under the brigade department to be a migrant worker. Many years later, the engineering system regarded this education leader as an enemy, and it became a routine.

With the conclusion of a series of cooperation agreements with Belgium Huabi Bank, German Lihe Foreign Company, and Luxembourg Albed Company, in mid-August, the roads and the construction of the Shang Town in Jingzhou were completely handed over to the local government and gentry, and a labor army composed of nearly 20,000 prisoners was transported to Anjiang by water. In order to ensure the construction progress and quality, the garrison government issued an order. The 20,000 prisoners were pardoned for their crimes, and after serving for three years, they were repatriated and granted military citizenship based on their performance. During this period, the monthly salary was three yuan.

Although the salary is very low, at least there is hope, so the phenomenon of escape disappears. Compared to being captured and executed by fierce soldiers, it is really nothing to work hard here for three years. And what if you can escape? Will you continue to be a bandit?

Bandits and beggars are inevitable products of class rule. The more extravagant the rulers are, the larger the number of this class will be...

The 20,000 labor force was uniformly accepted by the Xin'anjiang Construction General Command. Although the railway also requires personnel, considering that the route and terrain survey work has not been completed, these low-cost labor forces were concentrated in Anjiang.

The first job is to build a dock. Chen Shao quickly obtained the planning plan designed by a German designer, and Wang Zhenyu grabbed a group of people and agreed after studying it all night. However, all equipment needs to be transported to Anjiang by water, and building a dock has become an urgent task. Wang Zhenyu also made a special instruction: "The rails required for railway construction in the later stages also need to be used for docks, so it is recommended that a modern dock is also built in Hongjiang and Qiancheng."

More than 3,000 most powerful workers built a 600-meter-long and 300-meter-wide flat land on the edge of the Yuan River in less than five days. Then the Baota brand cement produced by the Jingzhou Cement Plant was sent over, pouring 20 cm thick cement. The steel frame structure warehouse, office building, lighthouse and four huge gantry cranes were all in just fifteen days. This speed surprised the German engineers very much.

Then ships of cement and building materials were loaded and unloaded here. The port management team under the command selected 200 solid workers to be responsible for loading and unloading the wharf. The entire Jingzhou Cement Plant, which had not yet been fully completed, used the part that had been put into production, and kept transporting 300,000 tons of cement to the Anjiang Model City construction project in just 20 days. The entire Anjiang River was also full of noises and was in full swing...

On the morning of September 10, Chen Shao, commander-in-chief of the Xin'an River Construction General Command, Chen Quzhen, deputy commander-in-chief of the Industrial Project Group, administrative project team, life area project team leader, Ye Zuwen and Liu Guojun and others were all standing honestly at the Yuanjiang Wharf, which had just been put into use for a few days, as if waiting for the arrival of an important figure.

With a whistle sound, a 30-ton steam ship docked, which is the freighter of Yuanjiang Shipping. At present, Yuanjiang Shipping has been merged into Xiangxi Development Company, and the entire Yuanjiang River Basin has had to join Yuanjiang Shipping under semi-force and semi-discussion. With a large number of sailors familiar with water transportation, Ye Zuwen immediately decided to show his strength. What to do? Buy a ship. The price of a 30-ton freighter in Shanghai is 15,000 yuan, the price of a 50-ton freighter is 20,000 yuan, and the price of a 70-ton freighter is 30,000 yuan.

Yuan. As for the big ones, I won’t consider it for the time being. The draft in Yuanjiang is so deep, with many dangerous shoals and many reefs. The engineer battalion divided into three groups and exploded one after another. The bombing was not over until now. Hu Lichun, the battalion commander of the engineer battalion, regretted it. He had known that when he had negotiated the conditions, he would have called a high price. If he hadn’t changed the engineering regiment, he would have been directly the engineering brigade. The engineers also said that in fact, being a construction worker in Anjiang is actually quite promising. At least he doesn’t need to open the road by himself every day, and he doesn’t need to be bedridden on the streets as a bed...

Given the current transportation capacity and river conditions, 30-ton and 50-ton ships are the focus of procurement, of which 200 were purchased by 30-ton ships and 100 were purchased by 50-ton ships. Most of the sailors of the ship gang were resettled and continued to run on the Yuan River. Although the huge profits were gone, it was still good to get a fixed monthly salary. Moreover, the company also promised to retire. Where can I find this good thing? But the boatmen were unemployed because the steamships did not need to pull the fibers when they went upstream. But don't worry, about 3,000 boatmen were eventually recruited to Xin'an River and became a member of the labor army...

As the ship docked, the inner guard troops responsible for the peripheral guards left and became nervous. Wang Zhenyu, who was smiling, held his wife Ye Ziwen's little hand and got off the boat along the escalator. He first shook hands with the people from the construction command center, thanking them for their hard work over the past month, and then holding his father-in-law Ye Zuwen's hand, and said to Ye Zuwen and Liu Guojun: "Thank you for your hard work. If this project was not related to our luck in the next ten years, I would not have been willing to let my father and Brother Liu go to the wind and sun here no matter what."

Ye Zuwen smiled and said, "I have been doing business for my whole life for my father. I can start a business in this forty years. Why do I have to thank you? Instead, I want to thank you, Wen Zheng."

Liu Guojun was even more straightforward, just giggling, and not saying anything else. Just kidding, without the presence of the Wang Dashuai in front of him, he must still continue to open his own grocery store in his hometown in Changzhou? Life is short, and only a few decades, are you willing to surrender to a small shop, or are you willing to experience the big scene in front of you?

Wang Zhenyu then helped Ye Ziwen onto the four-wheeled carriage. Chen Shao and Ye Zuwen were in the same carriage, sitting opposite Wang Zhenyu and his wife. While walking, they introduced the construction of Xin'an River.

Wang Zhenyu was listening and thinking: Although this carriage is comfortable and spacious, it is still not as good as a car in general. When Xin'anjiang is built, he asked his elder brother Liu Hongsheng to help get some American cars.

Ye Ziwen found that her husband was becoming more and more distracted recently. She didn't care about her father and sat opposite him. She habitually grabbed Wang Zhenyu's ear: "What are you thinking about again?"

After saying that, he felt that this was ambiguous, so he let go of Wang Zhenyu's ears with a blushing face, and put his hands on his knees in a hurry.

Wang Zhenyu did not notice his wife's embarrassment, but said to himself: "What bad idea can you think of? By the way, our home will be here in the future. If you go to the administrative district with me to see the German design plan and see what our Wenlu will look like in the end?"

"Wenlu?" Ye Ziwen looked at her husband with a puzzled look, her eyes blinking, very cute.

Wang Zhenyu couldn't help but shave her nose and said, "Is it good to use the last word of your name to name our new home?"

Ye Ziwen's face turned white just now and her pink and white cheeks pressed against Wang Zhenyu's arm and said, "You are sweet, smooth, and uneasy."

Wang Zhenyu laughed: "Why am I not at ease with kindness?"

On the one hand, Ye Zuwen on the other hand was very pleased that his daughter and his wife were loving and lived a happy life; on the other hand, he felt a little uneasy, after all, Wang Zhenyu was already a prince: "Wenzheng, this is not good, right?"

Wang Zhenyu smiled and said, "It's okay."
