Liao Wenru and Liu Ning returned to Qingzhou at the same time.

On the fourth day Liu Ning was waiting in De County, the sergeants led by Liao Wenru came back. After the two groups returned to Qingzhou, they returned to Qingzhou.

Yang Yipeng did not set any trap in the capital, and the ten night pearls were safely delivered to their destination.

The day after they returned to Qingzhou, the middle-aged man showed up at Xinyi Police again, delivered another fifty thousand taels of silver, took away the letter Liao Wenru brought from the capital, and returned the receipt written by Xinyi Police

.

The first escort mission was completed at the cost of the loss of thirty-one members of the Xinyi escort team.

Among these thirty-one people, twenty-five died in the fighting, and six died due to excessive injuries that could not be treated.

There are four other seriously injured sergeants. Their lives have been saved. Whether they can fight on the battlefield in the future depends on their recovery.

Xinyi Absi received a reward of 100,000 taels of silver, more than 200 war horses and southwest horses, a small amount of bows, arrows and ordnance.

Wu Zongrui and Yang Yipeng did not quarrel with each other. Both parties remained calm and did not make the slightest move.

The reputation of Xinyi Escorts has spread. In a short period of time, Qingzhou, Dengzhou, Laizhou and Jinan and other places are spreading the word about Xinyi Escorts, saying that Xinyi Escorts is strong and can escort any materials.

The Xinyi Essi store in Qingzhou Prefecture suddenly became busy.

Liu Yousong became extremely busy, welcoming countless members of the scholar-bureaucrat family and many businessmen.

Needless to say, the escort missions in Shandong are the most frequently asked questions about escort missions from the south to the north, such as escort missions from South Zhili to Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi and other places.

This is an arduous task for Xinyi Escorts. Goods from many places in the south are transported by water to Dade County and other places. They need to be disembarked and then transported by land to Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi and other places. Everyone knows that Shaanxi bandits are

Rampant, if the team transporting goods is attacked by rogue bandits, the goods will definitely be lost.

It is precisely because rogue bandits are rampant in Shaanxi and there are a large number of bandits in Shanxi and Henan that land transportation is almost cut off. The risk of escorting goods to these places is too high and the rewards are not very generous. After all, most of the goods transported are daily supplies.

The biggest problem facing Xinyi Escorts is whether to accept these escort tasks.

As for the scholar-bureaucrat families, most of them require the escort of valuable materials such as gold, silver, and jewelry. Under normal circumstances, these gold, silver, and jewelry will be sent to the capital or other places where the family's children are officials.

Liu Yousong is very considerate and records all the questions asked by the guests.

"I think that Xinyi Escort Company should not expand its escort tasks too widely in the short term, especially in places such as Shaanxi, Shanxi and Henan. The situation in these places is complex. If you are not careful, the goods you transport will be lost, and the escort service will be lost if you are not careful.

The safety of the sergeants of the Division cannot be guaranteed. As for the fact that some people are requesting that gold, silver, jewelry and other money from Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan and other places be transported to the south, or to North Zhili, this can be considered. Gold, silver and jewelry are easy to carry.

Even if we encounter rogues and bandits, we can evacuate quickly. As for daily supplies, it takes a long time to transport them and is too difficult..."

Liao Wenru spoke very smoothly, probably after thinking for a long time.

Most of the opinions put forward by Liao Wenru were that considering the difficulties that sergeants may face, especially those life-threatening escort tasks, it is better not to take over.

Wu Zongrui turned his head and looked at Zeng Yongzhong.

Liao Wenru's opinions should represent the military.

Zeng Yongzhong thought for a long time before speaking slowly.

"I think the escort tasks in Shaanxi, Shanxi and Henan are still acceptable, but Xinyi Escorts can treat them differently. The volume of goods for each escort must be large, and several small batches of goods can be collected together and shipped at once.

When escorted to the destination, and on the return journey, you can carry gold, silver, jewelry, etc. so that the two ends can be connected..."

...

Everyone looked at Wu Zongrui, waiting for the decision.

Wu Zongrui stood up and walked to the middle.

"Everyone knows the original intention of the establishment of Xinyi Escort Service. Now that our escort business has expanded, we must undertake all escort tasks. There are indeed great dangers in Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan and Beizhili.

, but we, as captains, have to face the danger head-on. If we are timid, wouldn’t it be against the original intention of the captain?”

"Our sergeants need to be tempered, real tempered. The last time we went to Beizhili to escort Ye Mingzhu, hundreds of sergeants were tempered. The momentum they displayed has been very different."

"And we accept many escort tasks, and we can also take this opportunity to further strengthen our strength. Think about it, if our escort business expands to all parts of the north and south, wouldn't it require a large number of escort personnel? Under such circumstances, we will recruit more

When people enter the Xinyi City, even the imperial court has nothing to say."

"What Oshi does is to lick blood from the edge of a knife. If you are afraid of death, don't think about it."

"There are big waves in the sand. I believe that our sergeants will be able to become stronger after being trained several times."

"The Escort Division has been established. I think the sergeants' salary should also be adjusted. The monthly salary of ordinary sergeants is based on three taels of silver. The sergeants who participate in more escort tasks will receive more rewards. At present, we have many arrangements

The sergeants take turns to be responsible for escorting. In the future, we will carry out selection and let those sergeants with outstanding abilities take on more escorting tasks."

"The selection of officers and the performance of the escort mission can be considered. Those sergeants who are calm and calm in the face of fighting can be promoted to officers."

"Don't be afraid of death. The more we are afraid of death, the more timid we will be in doing things, and the greater the loss will be in the end."

"Sir, please tell Liu Yousong my opinion and ask him to work harder. For any escort tasks undertaken in Shaanxi, Henan, Shanxi and other places, the goods need to reach a certain scale before they can be escorted. As for the

Escort charges should also be treated differently. Shaanxi has the highest escort charges, followed by Shanxi and Henan. Those in Henan charge fees according to the rules we have set. I think those who are eager to transport goods to these places are all extraordinary merchants.

I can afford the money."

"It should be noted that Xinyi Insurance Company's business is getting better, and the audits must be more stringent. Many people are staring at our Xinyi Insurance Company, hoping that something will happen to us. For those businesses that pretend to be mysterious, no matter what the background of the other party is.

, don’t take it over easily.”

...

Wu Zongrui’s words set the direction for the future development of Xinyi Security Bureau.

Everyone dispersed, but Liao Wenru and Liu Ning stayed.

"Wenru, Liu Ning, I know you are worried that the loss of the sergeants will be too great. These sergeants have been trained by you hand in hand. You will not feel comfortable if someone is killed or seriously injured. But you must remember that if Ci does not control the army, we will not

We will deliberately send our sergeants to dangerous places, but we do not allow our sergeants to enjoy themselves comfortably. If that happens, our sergeants will gradually become useless and will be held back at critical moments."

"You have all seen the situation of the sergeants in various military stations, including the canal transport soldiers. In De County, the canal transport general military office organized hundreds of the most elite sergeants to challenge our less than two hundred sergeants. The result was that the fifth canal transport military camp

The sergeants were defeated, which shows how effective they are in combat."

"I have long said that our sergeants must become an out-and-out iron army, able to deal with any dangerous situation and defeat any powerful opponent. To achieve this goal, they must constantly accept dangers and challenges.

, only after experiencing the tempering of blood and fire again and again can they become truly strong."

"Any sergeant who dies during the escort process must provide enough silver taels as a pension. Don't skimp on this. All the sergeants see what we do. We will reward the fallen sergeants with two taels per sergeant."

The pension of one hundred taels of silver has caused huge repercussions in the army. Presumably, for the sergeants killed in the imperial army, the pension for each sergeant is less than twenty taels of silver, and there are many deductions."

"Our army has extremely strict military regulations, so there must be sufficient guarantee of pay. At least the sergeants can rely on pay to support their families. Only in this way can the sergeants return to their hearts and have a real sense of belonging to the army."

"Wenru, Liu Ning, I emphasize once again that military regulations are the soul of our army and must not be lost. No matter who in the army, even you, must not violate military regulations, otherwise you will encounter

Severe punishment."

"Recently, I have heard many things about the sergeants stationed in Dengzhou and Laizhou. Most of these sergeants are Han Chinese from Liaodong. Not only the common people and farmers in Dengzhou and Laizhou are afraid of them, but even the people here in Qingzhou are silent about them.

"There are rumors from the outside that they are very powerful, they fight bravely, are not afraid of death, and have very strong combat effectiveness. In my opinion, they have no combat effectiveness at all. An army without the constraints of military regulations is not an army, but a bandit."

"When we, Xinyi Escorts, go to Dengzhou and Laizhou to escort goods and money, we must pay special attention to them. If they do not take the initiative to provoke, we will ignore them. If they find trouble or even rob the goods, then we will do it without mercy.

Don't show any kindness to them, if anything happens, I will take responsibility for it."

...

Wu Zongrui was a little excited when he said it, especially when he mentioned the garrison in Dengzhou and Laizhou, his mood was obviously not very good. This made Liao Wenru and Liu Ning feel strange, but they did not dare or would not ask.

Wu Zongrui emphasized the army's military aircraft regulations. This has been engraved in the minds of officers such as Liao Wenru and Liu Ning. They will never violate them. In fact, complying with military aircraft regulations is not that complicated. In the final analysis, it is just four words. Qiu has no fault.
