"Dalang, half of Dutingyi has finally been taken down for you. How can I thank me?"

That night, in the Songlin Pavilion in Gao Qiu's mansion, Zhao Ji told Wu Haogu about the sale plan for Duting Post that was finalized in Chongzheng Hall in the morning.

That's right, Wu Haogu works overtime again tonight and drink and have sex with prostitutes with officials! Today, the number one courtesan of Kaifeng Prefecture Yan Xixi and her mother Yan Po'er, a mother and daughter are with Zhao Ji, one on the side! Wu Haogu is next to Chunlan, who is the woman who took Zhao Ji from being a virgin! Tonight, Gao Qiu asked Li Shishi to accompany him... It's really hard to be a favorite minister of the emperor!

After hearing the good news that Zhao Ji said in person, Wu Haogu didn't seem to be too high, and just thanked him softly.

Zhao Ji thought Wu Haogu had not won the project of Dutingyi, and he smiled and comforted: "Dalang, there are opportunities in the future, and he will never let you suffer."

This attitude really touched Wu Haogu a little.

"Your Majesty," he quickly explained, "I am not worried because I did not take down the entire Duting Post, but because I am regretful that I have not established a Kaifeng Prefecture official land sale system."

Wu Haogu originally wanted to introduce "buying and auction", but now an imperial edict solved the problem. Half of Duting Station was worth 1 million yuan. This is actually not harmful to Wu Haogu's economic interests. Not to mention that no one will come to grab the order, and there is no need to pay additional municipal taxes and deeds. Just use the imperial edict to transfer the contract to Kaifeng Prefecture.

However, "bidding and auction" is a system. There are so many official places in Kaifeng Prefecture City and there is no mechanism. Will Wanjia Real Estate Bank, which is under the Republic, take over in the future?

Zhao Ji smiled and said, "Let's talk about it next time... By the way, the great edict for setting up the Xiyuan Construction Institute has also been drafted. Who will you come to this magistrate?"

Wu Haogu’s suggestion that the establishment of the Xiyuan Construction Station under the supervision was Wu Haogu. In his plan, the renovation of Qionglin Garden will become the construction of Qionglin Palace, and the construction of Qionglin Palace will become the construction of Qionglin City. If everything goes well, ten to fifteen years later, next to the disrepaired Kaifeng Prefecture City, there will probably be an extra small and sturdy new city. The government office responsible for building this new city is the Xiyuan Construction Station!

As usual, there should be two wise officials in the West Garden Construction Institute, one is an internal official and the other is an external official. What Zhao Ji is asking now is who will be the external officials among the wise officials?

Wu Haogu glanced at Gao Qiu who was hugging Li Shishi. He wanted to take down this official, but Wu Haogu had other ideas.

"Your Majesty, I recommend Pan Shiyilang."

"Pan Shiyi?" Zhao Ji originally wanted to be Gao Qiu, but after hearing this, he glanced at the future Taiwei Gao, "Dalang, is Pan Shiyi unwilling to lead the troops?"

"Your Majesty, he can't take troops." Wu Haogu said with a smile, "The Eleventh Brother is a big businessman in Kaifeng Prefecture, with a family capital of millions... How can such a wealthy businessman lead troops to fight in the world?"

"That's right." Zhao Ji frowned.

Pan Xiaoan, a wealthy businessman, worked as a military commander in Yanzhou for a while, but it seemed that he had not achieved much. He was just a waste of time.

But Pan Xiaoan is not good. Who can lead troops in the Kaifeng Imperial Army system?

Wu Haogu smiled and pointed at Gao Qiu, "Your Majesty, I think Brother Gao can manage the warriors in front of the hall for His Majesty."

What? What? Gao Qiu was a little anxious when he heard Wu Haogu’s advice. How could he have become an official in charge of the samurai in front of the temple? What kind of good things can a group of samurai warriors in charge of the countryside?

"Haha, this is going to be a pain in Gao Qiu." Zhao Ji smiled when he saw Gao Qiu's face, "Dalang, what do you think you should do?"

Wu Haogu smiled: "How could Brother Gao be afraid of hardship? Besides, the jurisdiction of the samurai in front of the palace is an important task... If 1,000 families can be selected, then there will be around 500 warriors serving in Kaifeng Prefecture all year round. These are all elite cavalry like the Western thief's Iron Harrier and the Iron Lin Army of the Liao Kingdom! Who else can manage such elites except Brother Gao?"

Gao Qiu actually couldn't control those iron cavalry well, but there were really few people around Zhao Ji, and there was even no suitable candidate for the entire Song Dynasty.

The Song Dynasty now has neither a real military academy system nor a manor family, so naturally it has no ability to cultivate military talents.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that there were no good generals in the Song Dynasty. Otherwise, how could Yue Fei come out? His family probably raised horses for the Han family in Xiangzhou or rich peasants. Didn’t Yue Fei learn a lot of martial arts?

The Song Dynasty just had no mechanism to provide military talents for a long time and stabilize the military talent. Most of the officers of the Song Dynasty's Central Army were compensated by the generals who did business and the children of the civil servants and magistrates' families. They had no problem in doing business, doing art, and taking the imperial examinations. They could fight...

Therefore, the Central Army of the North and South Song dynasties had a problem of zero combat power. The root of the Jingkang shame was that the combat power of Kaifeng Imperial Army and Hebei Imperial Army was equal to zero.

Later, when the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed by the Mongol Yuan, the same problem occurred. The national defense in the late Southern Song Dynasty did not rely on the Central Army of the Lin'an court, but on the Zhongshun Army system founded by Anfeng Generals and Meng Zongzheng of Huaixi, Meng Ke (the foundation of the Zhongshun Army can be traced back to the Yue Family Army), were all warlord troops with soldiers as generals.

After these two troops were either disintegrated (disintegrated by the Southern Song Dynasty itself) or defeated by the Mongol Yuan, the 130,000 imperial guards led by Jia Sidao, the important military affairs of Pingzhang, were dispersed on the battlefield... Like the Kaifeng imperial guards in Hebei and Kaifeng in the late Northern Song Dynasty, their combat effectiveness was equal to zero.

By the way, although Jia Sidao is quite bad in history books, he is different from those of the priests who have never been to the battlefield in the late Northern Song Dynasty. He was born as a commander who had been in the military for half his life and could fight. But what's the use of him alone? He doesn't understand anything at all.

Therefore, Wu Haogu cannot find a boss who can fight for those 1,000 (now only 500).

There may be some famous generals in the Western Army, but the generals of the Western Army are not from the Kaifeng General Sect system. Zhang Shuye may be a little stronger than Gao Qiu and Pan Xiao'an, but he is a civil servant, and civil servants cannot lead troops. Lin Wancheng and Lin Chong are good at martial arts, but they are not qualified.

So Gao Qiu became the most suitable candidate.

However, Gao Qiu himself didn't think so. He shook his head and said, "Dalang, I don't understand military affairs, how can I lead troops?"

"Then do you know how to ride a horse?" Wu Haogu asked back.

"I understand." Gao Qiu nodded.

"Do you know how to shoot arrows?"

"I understand, too."

"Do you know how to ride and shoot?"

"Learn a little."

"Can you use spears, carbines, swords and shields?"

“There will be some…”

Gao Qiu is a little trippy, and his martial arts are similar to Mi Youren, and of course they are not as good as Song Huizong himself. Compared with Brother Zhao Zhong, Lin Chong and Oligana are far behind. But they are far superior to Wu Haogu and Pan Xiao'an.

"But understanding some martial arts does not mean that you can lead troops!" Gao Qiu still had no confidence.

The military view of the people of the Song Dynasty was to be light on military skills and emphasize strategy, and they looked down on the courage of ordinary men, and Gao Qiu was not brave either.

"It would be good to understand martial arts!" Wu Haogu said, "Pan Shiyi and I don't even understand this... If we go to lead the troops, we will not know if those martial arts men deceived them. Brother Gao, you can at least keep an eye on the martial arts, horses and equipment of the knights serving in the service.

As for the battle formation method of the Iron Cavalry, Brother Zhao can be the training officer... Maybe he can borrow another military officer from Princess Xiping who has taken charge of the Iron Harrier."

How to train and organize infantry? The Military Science Department has already summarized a set of methods. Now it is natural to get cavalry, and cavalry is troublesome than infantry. To get cavalry, you must raise knights first, and then you can talk about organization and tactics. Otherwise, they will all be cavalry that will fall down after running on horseback, and all tactics are fake.

Of course, horse breeding and breeding are also carried out simultaneously, which is also a project that requires persistence to achieve results.

"Gao Qi," Zhao Ji also knows riding horses and martial arts, so he can understand Wu Haogu's words, "Dalang is right... You have to take care of the knights in front of the palace. By the way, you can't call the samurai in front of the palace. You have to call the samurai in front of the palace and return to the palace. Gao Qi, you can be the commander and bring this elite force for me."

Gao Qiu knew that he could not escape, so he had to get up and salute: "I obey the order."

Seeing that Gao Qiu was finally on the right track, he was one step closer to Taiwei Gao! Wu Haogu smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Zhao Ji: "Your Majesty, can I recommend another deputy magistrate and Pan Shiyi to take charge of the West Garden Construction Station?"

“Who are you recommending?”

Wu Hao An ancient road: "Cai Ju'an."

"Cai Jing's eldest son?"

"It's him."

"Okay!" Zhao Ji smiled, "It's time to arrange a good deal for Cai You."

...

"Lu Wangzhi is coming back? Haha, it's so lively now!"

At the same time, Ji Yi, who was still waiting for Zhao Ji to summon him at home, had heard from Zhang Yuan that Lu Jiawen was about to return to the court to take charge of Taifu Temple.

"Qian Yinji and Liu Ai are in a hurry," Zhang Yuan smiled, "Should you be trying to find a way to transfer the job now?"

"Lu Wangzhi is so annoying?"

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "A cruel official, everyone is worried when they see it. Moreover... no one can build a house under the housekeeping office on the left and right sides. The general is not under the jurisdiction of Taifu Temple, can he help build a house?"

"You can only send it to private individuals." Ji Yi smiled.

Zhang Yuan smiled and shook his head, "Do you have the capital to pay for your housekeeping in the left and right store? And Lu Wangzhi's reputation is so bad, who dares to take credit?"

"That's right." Ji Yi nodded. "There are too little things that can be done by the official business industry and business... An Shumi and Lu Wangzhi should have a headache next."

"Well," Zhang Yuan smiled, "No one is willing to help them build a house, there must be a profiteer who is manipulating it. Then it's time for Taifu Temple to find trouble for the Republican Tour!"

Taifu Temple manages a lot of things, including the municipal tax in Kaifeng Prefecture!

Ji Yi nodded, "Uncle Fourth, there is another thing... that is, the students of the Military Academy are transferred to the Buddhist Dojo in front of the palace. Zeng Xianggong and An Shumi didn't let go so easily, right?"
