There is an official yamen north of the East Gate of Tianjin. It was originally the Military Preparation Office of the former Ming Dynasty. It was built in the fourth year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty. The Military Preparation Office of the former Ming Dynasty governed the military, judicial and urban construction matters of the Three Guards. It is a high position and powerful position. The government is naturally large in scale, rigorous in layout, and solemn in the open and solemn. Now this is Shi Shilun's temporary yamen.

Firecrackers were heard everywhere in Tianjin, and there was a celebratory atmosphere everywhere. The newly relocated governor of Zhili Shi Shilun sat upright in the signing room with a sad face. The joy of being promoted to governor of Zhili has dissipated, and he was replaced by concerns about severe drought. He was ordered in the face of danger. The governor of Zhili was in charge of military and civil affairs in Zhili, Henan, Shandong and other places. The three provinces are all severely affected areas of spring drought. If the drought resistance and disaster relief are not effective, he, the governor, may not be able to do it for a long time.

After sipping strong tea, he recalled in detail the situation when the emperor saw him. Zhenwu did not mention a word of drought, but actively prepared for work-for-relief. Is this apprehension that the news leaked out caused panic? Or is he already confident about relief? Zhenwu had just ascended the throne and changed his throne and encountered a severe drought. There was no reason not to pay attention to it, but he was afraid that he had other ideas. At present, Zhenwu was not clear, and it was better to pretend to be confused and act rashly, but he still had to prepare for the future to avoid being in a hurry.

Putting this head down, he was worried about his personal soldiers. The Governor of Zhili was the head of the Governor of the world, and his every move was particularly eye-catching. The Governor had the personal soldiers of the first and third battalions, the Governor's Band. Even if the number of people was reduced a little, the basic 2,000 soldiers and horses were indispensable. The problem was that the Governor's Office was located in Tianjin. Zhenwu also understood that Tianjin was the face of the court. Should these 2,000 soldiers and horses be based on the standard configuration of the elbow camp soldiers or the standard configuration of naval soldiers?

From the bottom of his heart, he was more inclined to naval soldiers. Not only were the simple and generous coats, but he was also solemn and strict in command, and his training was not comparable to the leopard camp. However, as the governor of Zhili, he seemed to be innovating in the navy. However, judging from the measures to form a new guard army in Zhenwu, he seemed to be promoting the new army. It seems that he had to ask the Zhenwu Saint to ruling this matter.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. The governor of Zhili looked so majestic, but it was actually hard to bear. It was not as good as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi or Yunnan and Guizhou. The sky was high and the emperor was far away, and everything could be independent.

After sighing, he frowned again, using work for relief, targeting coolies with no skills. What project is suitable for the maximum use and solve the possible large-scale refugee wave?

In the southern suburbs outside Tianjin, purple bamboo forest.

Zizhu Forest is located on the west bank of Haihe River. It was originally just a village temple. It is very small in scale and is unknown. However, after the Navy Workshop expropriation, Zizhu Forest became famous and became a long-lasting topic that Tianjin people talked about after dinner.

However, in two years, the Zizhu Forest was beyond recognition. The previously simple village temples and Zizhu Forest Temples had disappeared. Instead, they were replaced by large factories and well-planned road houses. As some craftsmen in Honggang in Shanghai moved over one after another, a large number of craftsmen from all over the world also came, and a group of merchants with a keen sense of smell followed. The entire Zizhu Forest Buddha became lively and prosperous overnight and soon developed into another prosperous center in Tianjin.

Half a year ago, when a large number of Eight Banners flocked to the military workshop, it was icing on the cake, adding a bit of prosperity to the purple bamboo forest. There was no need to worry about the business of the wine shops and teahouses in the places where the bannermen were crowded. This was not only known to the businessmen in the capital, but also to the businessmen with a little knowledge. Therefore, when the bannermen came, all kinds of teahouses and restaurants in the purple bamboo forest came into being, and they all had a prosperous business.

After the old Jiu Yinzhen returned to the villa of Zizhulin from the Tinzigu Palace, he was lazy to summon the nobles who were stationed in Tianjin to manage the flag affairs. Instead, he directly ordered people to post notices in various workshops in Zizhulin and to spread the news at teahouses and restaurants of all sizes. At present, there are only 4,000 bannermen in Tianjin, and those sent to Tianjin to manage the flag affairs are all unfavorable, and they are all ungrateful. Yinzhen has no good impression of them and wants to take this opportunity to teach them a lesson.

The next morning, the assessment will be made public, and the same standard as all craftsmen are used to open rivers. Those who cannot be converted into formal craftsmen will be allowed to re-examination in March. Those who still fail to pass the re-examination will be expelled from the workshop, and their relatives and children will be re-exiled from the new army of the Imperial Guards. The family will be sent to Shengjing to assess those who commit favoritism and fraud, exiled to Australia, gathered people to cause trouble, exiled to Ningguta, and became slaves with the armored people.

As soon as the news spread, the entire purple bamboo forest immediately caused a sensation. The civilian craftsmen had long been dissatisfied with the behavior of the bannermen who did not work hard and were living in workshops all day long. When they heard the news, they all applauded, while the bannermen were panic and worried.

The teahouses of all sizes in Zizhu Forest were immediately crowded. After hearing the news, a group of bannermen rushed to their familiar teahouses. Zizhu teahouses were also crowded, and most of them were inlaid with blue flags. At this time, a large group of bannermen were talking, "I heard that it was a notice sent by Jiuye to post. Could this be what Zhenwuye meant?"

"This is still fine, of course it's what Master Zhenwu means. Isn't it proposed by Master Zhenwu to let us enter the workshop?"

"It's too cruel to expel the workshop, open the new army of the imperial guards, and send the family to Shengjing. We don't have to take the test, and we won't be such a craftsman, and we'll go back to Beijing."

"Don't let the damn stand and say no back pain. Ninth Master is not willing to be a craftsman, so he can go back to Beijing. However, relatives and children still have to open a new army of imperial guards.

Are we going back to the same old situation? We came to Tianjin to improve our family’s livelihood.”

"I have reminded you to not be stumbled. Look at the craftsmen in the workshop, who is like us?"

"Go on the same side, don't ask for a hindshot. Can you pass the test?"

"I can naturally pass the test. This is not a nonsense. My master has long been able to get out of the army. I am not a hindsight. I have not said this today. I have reminded you a long time ago, why did Master Zhenwu let our bannermen enter the workshop? It is only one aspect to solve our livelihood. The court now has no shortage of silver. He earned 70 million taels in one battle in Japan..."

"I have it, you always save some spit. We don't have time to listen to you nonsense. Just be honest, what should we do now?"

"What else can I do? Those who gathered to cause trouble were exiled to Ningguta and became slaves with the armored people. The notice was clearly written. I don't think it was a joke this time, so don't make any trouble."

"Hey, I want me to do it steadily in the military workshop. These are two portions of money and food. Why bother to feel uncomfortable? Isn't the work harder and more tiring? If the people can do it, our bannermen can't do it? It's just that they can't put down their airs and think that there is a maximum share in being an apprentice for the people. What can't be put down? For the sake of the money, they have to put down everything."

The spit was splashing, and one of them walked in quickly and said loudly: "The latest news is that the Thirteenth Master has begun to comprehensively clean up and rectify the twenty-four banners stationed in Beijing in the capital. The day before yesterday, it began to conduct a spring assessment of each banner the day. It was extremely strict. Three percent of the three flags that have been assessed failed the assessment and were dismissed."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel sank. The court seemed to be really playing, and the capital was also rectifying it with great fanfare. After a while, someone asked worriedly: "There has been 30% of the resignation. How to solve this livelihood? I won't just ignore us, right?"

"Look at what you said, how can you ignore it? Now it is the navy, the new guards, and the military workshop. We have a lot more ways out than before. However, when you join the army, you have to be capable. You can't get the military salary. You can still be a craftsman, and you can't do it, so you can only go back to Shengjing to farm."

"I won't have the place in Shengjing. I'd better do it steadily in the workshop. This work is not difficult. If you can't pass the assessment this time, there will be no problem in three months. As long as you are serious and willing to do it, there is really nothing that our bannermen can't scoop down."

This is true. Although Shengjing is the place where the Qing Dynasty is the prosperous place of the capital and Tianjin, who would rather go back to the bitter and cold place? What's more, when you go back to Shengjing to farm, how can you feel comfortable in the workshop?

The crowd was dejected and was about to end the scene. Another young man from the blue flag ran in and shouted, "Brothers, this is a great thing. Just now, news came from Jiu Ye that the assessment of the new army of the Shunyi Imperial Guard has ended. More than 8,000 people passed the qualification. Those who failed the qualification will continue to stay in Shunyi for training without pay. The assessment will be conducted in half a year. All those who passed the assessment will receive the military salary in the vest."

When everyone heard this, they were very happy. They had relatives and children in the Imperial Guard New Army. They originally listened to the Imperial Guard New Army to eliminate half of the Imperial Guard New Army, but now they have only been eliminated less than 20%. They can continue to stay in Shunyi after being eliminated. Although there is no salary, there will be more opportunities to pass the assessment and you can save someone's food rations. Don't underestimate one person's food rations. It is said that half of the eldest son is poor. I am a young man. I am a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man, and the food rations for a year are not a decimal.

Everyone immediately started to talk, "As soon as the assessment is passed, I will scoop the salary for the vest. The money and food for that month are reduced to four or a half, and this year it will cost fifty taels of silver."

"The new army of the Imperial Guards is a new army formed by the emperor himself. Of course, the treatment is generous. Look at the navy. The lowest salary is four taels, and there are additional subsidies when going to sea. After a month, it can be enough to scoop up to six taels. In the battle against Japan, do you know how much reward the navy has received? One million taels, how many people in the South China Fleet are there?"

At this time, a foreman named Tong Shiwu interrupted, "You are still a bannerman, so the little money will make your eyes blurred? Don't always stare at the silver. This is the first batch of soldiers of the Imperial Guard New Army. The first batch of soldiers of the Navy are at least the seventh-rank general level. The minimum salary of the Imperial Guard New Army is the salary of the Vest. What does this mean? The Lord attaches great importance to it! Everyone, everyone understands the principles of the emperor and the ministers, but why can't you understand it when the matter is at the end?" (To be continued.
