Chapter 053 The new official takes office (Part 2)

While eating, Hu You started chatting with the people in charge of food. Seeing that Hu You, the captain, seemed to have no temper, after drinking a few glasses of wine, several grain officials also let go and said anything to him.

"The elder brothers have been in the army for a long time, and they are very knowledgeable. When I first came, I don't understand many things. I want to ask you about them, but I don't know if it's okay?" Hu You asked with a glass of wine.

Rikelme frowned when he heard Hu You calling his brothers and several grain officials. However, he did not speak out, wanting to see what Hu You wanted to do. He felt that Hu You came here, it was definitely not as simple as eating.

The grain official was poured several cups of wine by Hu You, and he was already drunk. He actually patted Hu You on the shoulder and praised his old qualifications: "Sir, please ask if you have anything. As long as I know, I will tell you."

"Then I'll thank you in advance. Well, that's it. I don't quite understand the daily ration distribution of soldiers. You are a grain official, so you must know."

"Of course, this is what I do, so I don't know. Before, each person above the captain had two kilograms of rice per day, or the same noodle grain. The meat was two liang of the captain, and each level was one liang of meat, and each level was one liang of meat. For example, if you are a captain, you will have two jin of rice and six liang of meat per day. The soldiers will have one and a half jin of grain and one liang of meat per person."

It is worthy of being a professional person. If you drink it like this, the grain official can still explain it clearly.

"What about now?"

Speaking of the current standard, the grain official was a little hesitant and seemed to have thought of something. Another grain official next to him saw that the grain official did not say it, thinking that he had forgotten it, and quickly said:

"It's a year of disaster, so life is naturally not as easy as before. But it's easy to count, it's just half the standard, eat food a day and two days."

"Well, so that's the case. I still have something to do, so let's drink it slowly."

Hu You said, turned around and left.

After Hu You walked away, the previous grain management said: "Why do I feel something is wrong?"

"Hey, what's wrong. Let's drink it again. Today, I'll drink it happily."

Hu You left the grain warehouse and his face was so heavy. Before, he saw the soldiers eating wild vegetable porridge, and he felt that there must be something wrong with it. Although it is a year now, military rations are the first to provide. There is a certain guarantee. It is impossible to eat wild vegetable porridge.

Rikelme was also very nervous now. He also drank the wild vegetable porridge just now. Each person had seven taels and five in food supply every day, and according to three meals a day, there were two taels and five in rice for each meal. Even if it was not enough, it would not reach the level just now. Not to mention half a tael of meat every day, there was no trace of meat in the porridge.

"Sir, what are you going to do?" Rikelme asked tentatively. For some reason, Hu You always didn't say anything, and he felt a little confused.

Hu You looked at Rikelme coldly for a while and felt that he should have nothing to do with this matter, so he said, "I suspect someone is detaining military rations privately. Don't make any statement about this matter first, and I will discuss it after I investigate it clearly."

The new official took office for three fires, and Hu You decided to light a fire on the issue of food.

"Yes, the lieutenant," Rikelmei responded. He knew very well that someone was going to be unlucky. Rikelmei knew about the deduction of food in the army. He did not ask about this matter, first, because the generals never had less food and grass. Second, the grain officials were sent by the upper class, and if they touched them, it would be equivalent to slapping the upper peak in the face. Third, this has been a common phenomenon. Any official has no shit under his butt. If you mess with others, be careful that they will bite you to death. Tearing the face will not be good for anyone. The soldiers did not speak out. It is better to have less trouble than more. Whoever is full is fine, and it is easy to cause trouble for themselves.

Hu You has been wandering around the world for so many years, and he has known these things more clearly than anyone else. If he just wants to keep going in the army quietly, he will be better than anyone else and be more beautiful.

However, this is not Hu You's ideal. He wants far more things than these people can dream of. Therefore, Hu You will seize this matter. Because he knows that only those who win the hearts of the people can win the world.

The people's hearts are a strange thing. Sometimes it is easy to get, but it is difficult to get. For example, when a person is about to die of hunger, you give him a piece of bread, and this person may belong to you. Even if he doesn't work hard for you, he will at least be grateful to you. When a person has everything, if you give him a piece of bread, he will not be grateful to you, but angry because he thinks you are insulting him.

The problem of food may be a small problem in the eyes of others. Regardless of the officials, the soldiers want to speak out, but their voices are too small and no one can hear them. Therefore, this problem will not become a problem. At least before the problem breaks out, it will not be a problem. Just like the riot in Langtian, before the outbreak, no one will look at the victims who have no food to eat.

Now no one cares about this issue of food. It is a great opportunity for Hu You. As long as you use it well, the benefits for him will be unimaginable. It is not just the support of 300 soldiers, but he will get more, more than similar ones.

However, Hu You also knew that you must not do anything randomly and use wisdom. Otherwise, if you offend all your superiors because of this, Hu You will be finished.

After sending Rikelme away, Hu You had been thinking about the operational problem. Before he knew it, he came to his tent.

"Captain, ah, no, hello, sir."

Hu You knew it was Hou San when he heard the voice. This boy's mouth was very strong for his successful takeover of the troops this time. It was precisely because of his propaganda in the army that he was so easily accepted by Riquelme and the others.

Hu You smiled and said, "It's you kid, why are you standing at the door?"

"Hehe, I heard that I was going to arrange a guard for you, so I took the initiative to ask for my life. They knew my old subordinates, so they asked me to bring my troops down."

"Let's sit inside and have a good chat."

"Yes, Master Captain."

"You guy is doing well. You have only been in a few months and you have become a husband." Du Xiaotian sat down on the chair.

Hou San laughed and said, "Hehe, I'm far inferior to the lieutenant."

Hu You was very satisfied with Hou San's sensibility. He spoke out with the lieutenant, and did not become arrogant because everyone was in the same barracks.

"Yeah. Let's sit."

"Next, this is hare meat."

Hu You threw a piece of rabbit meat roasted in the mountains.

"How are Zhu Daneng and the others? Do you have any news?"

Hou San was not polite and bit the rabbit meat and said:

"I don't know much. Not long after you left, our new recruits were mixed with the veterans. I once asked, and the news was very disbanded. I think they should have all gone to Langtian. Otherwise, I would definitely find them."

Hu You nodded and said, "How are your subordinates doing? Do you listen to you?"

"Of course." Hou San said with dedication: "It's not me who brags, they are like I listen to you, and they are just like what I want them to do, nothing else."

Hu You smiled and said, "You guy is so strong that you can do it. You can follow me in the future. Be a guard first, and I will help you with the chance."

When Hou Sanyi heard this, he immediately put down the rabbit meat and saluted, "I have not brought my love to Master Xie."

"All right, I don't have to do this for me in private. I'll be watching my brothers. I'll never let my brothers watch it."

"That's right, we brothers all know that the Lord is righteous."

After chatting for a while, Hu You said:

"Hou San, I have something to ask you to do. This matter is dangerous. Will you do it?"

"Sir, look at what you said. Since the natural disaster, my life is yours. What do you want me to do? Just give me a command. I will never say anything."

"Okay, enough brother. This is the case. I suspect someone in the army has detained food and supplies privately, but I don't know much about the specific situation now. So I plan to ask you to investigate this matter secretly. It's better to get me some evidence back."

"Sir, I am the best at this kind of thing. Just leave it to me."

"It is because I know you are good at it that I asked you to do it. But this is of great importance and I want you to keep it completely confidential. Apart from you and me, no third person is allowed to know. Can you do it?"

"I promise not to say anything if I beat you to death."
