Qin Feng suddenly understood that Xiao Zhen was originally a wild path, and his insistence on survival of the fittest was very simple. If the strong are above the strong and the weak are below the weak, if he can't stand this intensity, he will be a deserter when he goes to the battlefield in the future.

"Young Master, either I came to Kuyao or qualified soldiers with me. They were forced to come here without having to choose. But if they were qualified soldiers or not, they had to sifted it again. This time is the best time."

"As soldiers, they do not have the quality of fighting and cannot endure hardship. What should such soldiers do? Now that we are not as strong as we are, we can only have elite soldiers!"

Xiao Zhen was making a sound, Qin Feng frowned, and he was indeed inexperienced in leading the army. Then he turned around and looked at Xiao Lingyao. Seeing that she was thinking, he said, "Ning'er, what do you think?"

"Although the number of people in Kuyao has increased significantly, the infrastructure you mentioned is very large, and we still lack personnel. The soldiers brought by General Xiao can be used for great use, but if they are only used as coolies, wouldn't it be useless?"

"When the urban construction is over, they have lost their ambition to join the army, which is inappropriate." Xiao Lingyao said firmly: "I think General Xiao's idea is safe. He just needs to combine work and rest, and to give both kindness and power. They must be trained and supported urban construction, and they must get more."

Seeing Qin Feng's face stunned, Xiao Lingyao knew what he was thinking. She had just added military salary to these soldiers recently. She was so stingy that she was willing to add more. She was just thinking about what idea she was making.

Long Qi and Xiao Zhen also looked over curiously. Xiao Zhen didn't know Xiao Lingyao's nature of loving money, but Long Qi knew something.

Faced with the baptism of the three people's eyes, Xiao Lingyao said: "It's better to set up a diligence award. If you can persist in not taking leave in a month, you can get a reward. As for what the reward is, it naturally cannot be silver."

Increased military pay has led to a significant increase in the monthly military support expenses. If the money is rewarded, it will be painful!

"Do you want to replace it with things?" Qin Feng said: "The most important materials in Kuya nowadays are food and salt."

Xiao Lingyao was told to the point: "I just wanted to use salt to replace silver as a reward. The soldiers all came from Dongyue and knew the price of this salt, but now we rely on the sea to make a living, so the salt will not be short of in the future."

From the perspective of value and public awareness, using salt as a reward is indeed the best way. However, Qin Feng added: "Salt can be used for your own use, but under this dynasty, salt cannot be bought and sold freely. It would be fine if there were family members, if there was no..."

This salt can only be used in your hands, and it is less valuable, right?

"It would be better to give the soldiers who received the reward a power - they can send salt back to the official home and recycle it to obtain the corresponding silver. How about it?" Xiao Lingyao blinked and said, "It is up to them to decide whether it is for personal use or recycling."

Qin Feng was surprised. Isn’t this just cashing out with things? But judging from the scale of family members brought by the soldiers, most people will choose to use it for their own use. There must be a few who really cash out, and the expenditure of silver is limited.

Rong Ningqing, if he doesn't touch his brain, he will make a big splash when he moves. Qin Feng nodded and said, "The salt pond is still under construction, and there is a lot of salt stored in Ku Cliff. This plan is feasible. We have to trouble Mrs. Xiao to arrange the manpower to make records and settle the settlement at the end of the month."

He patted the board and saw Xiao Lingyao smugly tilting his eyebrows, like a cunning little fox. The long-lost fox's tail appeared behind her again, appearing vividly.

Qin Feng felt that he could only see the tail clearly, and the corners of his mouth were pulled up. Although it was not considered a waste of money, it was a successful resource utilization. Xiao Zhen's methods were too strong, and Xiao Lingyao's proposal could neutralize this kind of strength.

Isn’t this a full attendance award? Just getting the Ku Cliff and then using it, it can be seen that people’s ideas have been interconnected from ancient times to the present, but they have different statements and different forms. Qin Feng thought that this rule works, so why don’t people live better?

Salt was an indispensable and important element in ancient society. It was always managed by the government. When the salt was sparse, it could be worthy of the hard circulation of currency. Xiao Lingyao was an ancient man, and he carefully pinched this opportunity.

"Very good, very good. My mind is not as flexible as the little master." Xiao Zhen is now calling Xiao Lingyao with everyone. At first, he felt awkward, and he could speak up as he called too much: "Then it's settled, I'll discuss it with my wife again."

Long Qi looked around from the side and thought to himself that no wonder he chose this place as the military camp tent. This place must have water sources. It is best to face mountains on both sides. If it is in a desert area, you should also find a place similar to the slopes on three sides, which can prevent enemies from all sides and prevent disasters.

There is a water source here, and it is a lake, not by the sea. Generally speaking, it is best to build a tent around such a lake.

First, it relies on water sources, second, it is not a large river and river, which is blocked from the outside world, first, it can prevent waterlogging, and second, it can prevent foreign enemies from crossing the river and lake and entering the military tent. Moreover, the slope here is obviously higher.

The water source is so close, so there is no need to worry about building a water intake system. Long Qi thought about this and kept rubbing his fingers, and couldn't help but think about doing water intake system in the past.

The so-called water intake system actually uses bamboo pipes to connect the water source and the camp, and then uses a cylinder-like thing to allow the water source to flow back into the bamboo tube, thereby flowing into the camp, but how is that so convenient as it is now?

It is worthy of being Xiao Zhen. The choice of this camp is the best. Besides, Qin Feng turned his head and saw Long Qi looking around and approvingly. Just as he was about to ask, Long Qi said, "Young Master, the lake is obviously not far away, why do you need to build a water intake system?"

Just now, Qin Feng and Xiao Lingyao were studying the water withdrawal system that entered the account along the bamboo tube, and reached out to check the size of the water flow.

"It is indeed closer to the lake, but it takes manpower to get water back and forth. Now a person wants to use it as two or three people, so he no longer needs to waste manpower on such things. If you can use technology to solve things, wouldn't it be more effective?"

After Qin Feng said that, he patted his hands and said to Xiao Zhen: "I'm very good at choosing here."

Xiao Zhen’s choice is naturally not wrong, but Long Qi actually seems to be knowledgeable. Logically speaking, if he has never led a soldier, he would not have had this understanding. People in this dynasty have limited opportunities to receive education, and even fewer people can receive military education.

Long Qi's ability to have this kind of qualities means that he has received teachings or grew up in the army. When he thinks of Yuan Buqi's claim that Long Qi has a noble prime minister, Qin Feng had a vague guess in his heart.

"General!" Deputy General Fang ran over from a distance, bowed and greeted everyone, and said, "General, it's not good. Some soldiers have heatstroke, but one of them is more serious, I'm afraid..."
