The Jashui Camp is located on the edge of Jashui twenty miles outside Suizhou City. There is a small pier there. The camp is near the pier, responsible for guarding thieves and maintaining public order. However, when the Khitans headed south, the thieves jointly launched an attack on the pier. The Suizhou County soldiers stationed in this battle were defeated and the pier was also broken. All the merchants were killed, and the pier declined from then on. The camp also lost its value of garrison and was ordered by Wang Duan to give up.

When Dong Zunhui led his troops out of the city, he happened to meet Dong Zongben who was inspecting the city defense. He hurriedly ordered the soldiers to line up outside the city gate and went up to pay homage.

Dong Zongben looked at the soldiers of the first battalion and saw that although they were not dressed and had loose queues, the soldiers had a rare spirit, which was difficult to see among the soldiers of Suizhou County who had been peaceful for a long time! It was only a few hours before, and it seemed that my second son could really give me a big surprise in the future!

Dong Zongben had already received news that Dong Zunhui was going to the Jianshui camp. After all, rebuilding a camp requires a lot of supplies, and food supply and other supplies also need to be transported from Suizhou. Dong Zunhui dared not leave the city without a report. Before sending troops, the report he wrote hastily to Dong Zongben's desk.

However, even after reading Dong Zunhui's report, Dong Zongben was still a little confused. He asked Dong Zunhui: "Daoan, why do you want to lead the army out of the city? Isn't it more convenient to be in the city?"

Dong Zunhui told the truth in front of his father, "Father, the soldiers of Suizhou County have been in peace for a long time. If they are still in the city, no matter how hard they train, they will not be able to become an elite unit. Moreover, I saw that my second uncle had no intention of training. If my troops continued to stay in the city and saw the second camp spend their leisurely life, the soldiers would most likely cause dissatisfaction with me, and might lead to mutiny.

Going to the Hanshui camp can eliminate the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, and select young and strong from refugees to join the army. First, it can enhance the soldiers' sense of crisis and make them step up training. Second, it can invisibly reduce the possibility of refugees causing trouble and allow refugees to live a stable life.

Besides, I happened to see the map a few days ago. Suizhou City happened to be between Xiangzhou and Anzhou. There were many business trips on the road, and the Shuishi just connected Xiangzhou and Anzhou. If merchants sailed, it was very convenient to travel between the two places. As long as the Suizhou Hanshui Wharf was restarted, it could drive economic exchanges and prosper Suizhou's economy. Of course, the lijin collected can also provide guarantees for the training of the first battalion. However, these are my preliminary ideas and are not perfect. I wonder what your father meant?"

Dong Zongben was very pleased that my family had grown up. He nodded in praise, "Do you need any support? Even if you ask, I will decide what I can provide now."

"I need too much, so I'm not polite." Dong Zunhui said happily: "First, it takes 500 people for three months of food rations. It is not the kind of grain cakes given by the logistics officer, but the real wheat cakes. I have high-intensity training compared to the soldiers. If I don't eat well, they will definitely not be able to hold on."

"Okay, this is easy to do." Dong Zongben nodded and said, "Yesterday, a warehouse of grain was found from Wang Duan's house, and all of them belong to you. I will send someone to the Jianshui camp later. And I promised to allocate all the brothels and gambling houses under Wang Duan's name to you last night, and their income can also make up for the food and fodder consumed by the soldiers. If there is first, there is second, so you can continue talking."

"Well, I hope my father will give me enough cloth and corresponding money. The soldiers are dressed too messy and dirty. I want to customize military uniforms from the Suizhou tailor shop to make the soldiers look like they are in the army." Dong Zunhui scratched his head and said.

Dong Zongben nodded readily, "This is not difficult, just dial it out from the official warehouse. Is there any more?"

When Dong Zunhui saw that there was a door, he quickly began to search and asked, "Father, I hope you can give me some talents who are familiar with logistics supply and good at planning, and it is best to understand business knowledge. I want to rebuild the wharf, and I hope they can help plan. There are also carpenters and blacksmiths, and the Hanshui camp has been abandoned for a long time and needs to be rebuilt. In addition, if the wharf is rebuilt, all the money earned will be my, and the goods will no longer be paid for the entry fee when entering the city."

Dong Zong was not so happy now. He frowned and thought: "There are many people who are familiar with logistics supply, but not many people who know how to plan. Moreover, for the father, he took them back with both soft and hard skills. If he really threw it to you and suffered, they would have a knot in their hearts. Besides, they would not be loyal to our Dong family. For the father, there is a book boy named Jie who fell into the valley. You know him. I have been separated from my father since he was a child. He was smart and smart, able to write and calculate, and maybe he can help."

"Jie Duo Guli, is the one who got lost with the businessman's father?" Dong Zunhui nodded, "I had an exam a few days ago and was very clear about the way of refining goods. Even the boss of the shop said that he would not come out to do business, okay, I'm going to settle this person."

Dong Zongben frowned and said, "Carpenter, you can hire a few carpenters from the city. Anyway, they know that they are working for the army of the governor's mansion, so they dare not vain the price, so I don't need to send it. As for the blacksmiths, your second uncle also needs it. There are not many people in Wang Duan's baggage camp. You can also find a few skilled people from the refugees. They are very satisfied with their food, and see your luck. Lijin belongs to you. Anyway, the dock has been abandoned for a long time, and it takes a lot of money to renovate. If Lijin belongs to you, the governor's mansion will no longer provide the money to renovate. As for the expenses of entering the city, there is no spare money in Suizhou City. I am pointing at it for my father. This cannot be easily exempted. Otherwise, the merchants who are profit-oriented have all gone to the dock!"

"But father, if you are not exempt from the tax on entering the city, how could the merchants come to my pier? They are not stupid, why should you pay the tax twice?" Dong Zunhui shouted quickly.

Dong Zongben smiled and said, "Do you think I am so confused as a father? Although they paid the tax twice, they took a lot of goods and walked quickly. As long as they weighed it, it would be convenient for the water."

Dong Zunhui shook his head repeatedly, "That's not possible. This wharf has been abandoned for a long time, so there must be some discounts, otherwise my wharf will not be able to open."

"Your second uncle didn't mention so many conditions. I haven't seen your strong army yet. How could you agree to these conditions?" Dong Zongben said with a smile. "Oh, who asked me to raise your troublesome son? Let's do this. The tax on entering the city is 10 draws. Any goods transported from the docks can be 15 draws!"

Dong Zunhui smiled flatteringly and said, "I'll get one for thirty. I have to pay a leeway at the dock. I have to pay some discounts! Father, you should pity my son, who left home to start a business!"

"You bastard," Dong Zongben said with a lot of laughter and cry: "Forget it, listen to you, I'll get one in thirty!"
