Once again, I beg for support...

~~~~~~

Looking through the account book, Li Yuanqing looked at it carefully.

Although Ren Qizhu is Li Yuanqing's real uncle, the storage of grain and grass, the most important weapon of the country, is the most critical cornerstone of the entire Changsheng Island, so Li Yuanqing naturally does not dare to be careless in the slightest.

Ren Qizhu's work is still very regular.

He used a cinnabar red pen to carefully annotate and explain the calculations on each page.

Although the Changsheng Camp has not yet fully popularized Arabic numerals at this time, the main reason is that this important military weapon cannot be directly replaced by Arabic numerals. After all, if someone wants to tamper with it, Arabic numerals are too easy.

But Ren Qizhu's neat layout and beautiful handwriting made it all very clear. Li Yuanqing felt a lot more relaxed when he checked it.

According to the rules of the Changsheng camp, grain storage in the warehouse is done every ten days, that is, a small summary. One month is the first summary. Half a year is the middle summary. The end of the year is the final summary.

Li Yuanqing looked through it for half an hour, and it was all very neat and tidy, making it difficult to find any flaws.

In addition, Ren Qizhu only has statistical and management rights, but no usage rights.

The army's military accountant was a balanced constraint on Ren Qizhu, while Shang Laoliu, Ma Guanjia, and Li Yuanqing, who were above him, were a big constraint.

Unless Ren Qizhu bribes Li Yuanqing as well, otherwise, as long as there are false accounts in this account, it will soon be revealed.

In the final analysis, if you want to put power in a cage, the best way is to balance and restrict it, to even out the rights and involve each other.

Otherwise, if one person is in charge of everything and no problems arise, that would be called a ghost.

Of course, Li Yuanqing himself is an exception...

For Changsheng Island and the entire southern Liaoning, he is like the 'Creator', commanding everything from a commanding perspective.

After briefly checking the account book, Li Yuanqing showed a soft smile at the corner of his mouth, "Brother, thank you for your hard work these days."

Less than five million shi of grain, although not a lot, can supply Changsheng Camp, including the entire southern Liaoning, for two or three years without any problems.

In addition, Changsheng Camp is a living water that is constantly flowing. These grain and grass reserves are enough for Li Yuanqing to launch a continuous war for two years.

Although Ren Qizhu had already expected Li Yuanqing's praise, when the praise actually came, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. He smiled quickly and said: "Commander, it is a blessing of the humble position to be able to share the worries of the commander. Commander.

, you take a rest for a while, let’s go check the warehouse.”

Li Yuanqing smiled and took a sip of tea, "Brother, we don't have to be so reserved. I can see your hard work these days, and everyone can see it. If you continue to work so hard, my sister-in-law is afraid

They are going to block my door."

The smile on Ren Qizhu's face couldn't help but get bigger. He didn't expect that Li Yuanqing would have such a high opinion of him. You know, he was actually a big accountant at this time, with management rights but not much decision-making power.

Fortunately, Ren Qizhu is not ambitious and is very down-to-earth in his work. He does not aim too high. He still wants to practice for a few more years to establish his roots more firmly before entering the decision-making level. Although he knows very well that with his status,

Due to his status, sooner or later he will enter the decision-making level.

"Hey, Yuan Qing. It's not like you don't know that once you get busy with these things, you really can't let them go. Besides, this warehouse is so clean. I really want to live here all the time!"

When the two met each other, they couldn't help laughing.

After resting for a while in Ren Qizhu's public room, Ren Qizhu personally led Li Yuanqing inside to check the specific conditions of the warehouse.

These warehouses in the Changsheng camp are very tall and sturdy.

Although the exterior is mainly a rammed earth structure, there are two layers of stone walls inside. Even strong winds of level 10, or even level 123 will not have much impact on it.

The sizes of warehouses vary, but they are basically 80 meters long, 40 meters wide, and 15 meters high.

The main reason is that this place is very close to the sea, less than two miles away. The warehouses are built according to the terrain and local conditions, so they cannot be as regular as on the plains.

When you open the warehouse, there is a door first. There are compartments about two to three meters inside. There are a lot of quicklime, various hygroscopic Chinese herbal medicines, wood, etc., mainly to absorb moisture and isolate the moisture from the sea.

use.

Inside, there is a wide stone staircase.

The warehouse structure is more than 1.5 meters above the ground, and the bottom is a solid foundation of rammed earth, stone, and wooden mixed structures to isolate the "earth atmosphere".

This is mainly to keep the food dry and fresh, and also to isolate annoying little creatures such as mice, mosquitoes, and cockroaches.

Entering the warehouse, you will see neat racks of iron and wooden shelves, with bags of grain evenly stacked on the shelves. There is an aisle in the middle. Although it is not very spacious, it is more than enough to carry the grain smoothly.

On the other side, there is an exit, which is to facilitate the purchase and shipment of goods during busy times.

Li Yuanqing ordered his soldiers to open several grain bags and inspect them. They were all very neat and without any flaws.

After checking a dozen warehouses in succession and finding no problems, Li Yuanqing and Ren Qizhu arrived at a guarding soldier's hut sheltered from the wind.

The guards quickly made room, made hot tea for Li Yuanqing and Ren Qizhu, and went outside to chat and joke with the soldiers.

After drinking the tea to warm himself up, Li Yuanqing smiled and handed Ren Qizhu a cigar, lit one himself, and said with a smile: "Brother, you know about Lushun, right? What do you think about this matter?"

Ren Qizhu frowned tightly.

In fact, he has been thinking about this issue along the way. Think about this issue from the perspective of the decision-maker, not the executor.

After pondering for a moment and regaining his composure, Ren Qizhu said: "Commander, the Lushun matter is really a bit tricky to talk about! It means a humble position, Lushun has to help, but~, you must pay attention to methods. Teach them.

It’s better to teach them how to fish than to fish. We must do it step by step and slowly.”

Li Yuanqing smiled and took a deep breath from his cigar, "Brother, Yuan Qing is willing to listen to my detailed explanation."

Ren Qizhu also smiled, "Yuan Qing, this method is actually very simple. There are some bird feeders at our beach..."

…………

It was already evening when Li Yuanqing returned to the official hall.

After having a warm dinner with his wife and children, Li Yuanqing returned to the inner study to deal with documents.

Wan'er is on duty tonight.

Although she has given birth to a baby daughter for Li Yuanqing, Wan'er is much more beautiful than before, and her every move is full of the arrogant charm of a mature woman, and her nobility is overwhelming.

After handling a few less important documents, Wan'er brought a cup of tea to Li Yuanqing.

Feeling the alluring fragrance on her body, Li Yuanqing smiled and hugged her slender waist, placed it against her crystal-clear earlobe, took a small bite, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you in the past few days, my Wan'er misses me.

Is it done yet?”

Wan'er's pretty face blushed slightly, "Master, I haven't missed you...but I've missed you as much as I wish."

Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing: "Tonight, if nothing happens, I will go to your yard and take a good look at my precious daughter."

"Um……"

Wan'er's pretty face was bright and red, and Fang was even more happy. She said "hmm" like a mosquito, and hurriedly stepped aside, not daring to disturb Li Yuanqing's business.

This is the most distressing thing about Wan'er.

She would only take good care of Li Yuanqing's life, and would never interfere with Li Yuanqing's government affairs. She would come and leave as soon as she was called upon.

She was also Li Yuanqing's most beloved concubine.

On the island, his status in Liaonan is also high.

There are not many important documents today, but there is a letter written by Mao Wenlong.

Wan'er went to read by the brazier nearby, and Li Yuanqing also calmed down and carefully read Mao Wenlong's letter.

In the letter, Mao Wenlong briefly analyzed his next military plan for Li Yuanqing, which was very different from when Li Yuanqing went to Pi Island to meet Mao Wenlong.

Mao Wenlong still wanted to win an important Houjin town, such as Laozhai, to prove his achievements and glory, and to improve the morale of his subordinates. "Looking for a feudal lord from three thousand miles away!"

Regarding this, Li Yuanqing was somewhat unconvinced.

At this time, the situation in western Liaoning has gradually evolved from "liquid" to "solid".

To put it bluntly, the warlord system has already taken a regular shape, namely Liaoxi, Liaonan, and Liaodong.

Because Western Liaoning is the gateway to Guancheng and has a literati group stationed there, the generals of Guanning in Western Liaoning do not dare to overdo it yet, but the signs are already showing.

At this time, Liaonan and Liaodong were basically independent.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally important to expand achievements, but more importantly, it is necessary to stabilize the internal situation.

But Mao Wenlong has such aggressiveness, and Li Yuanqing has no reason to stop it...

To a certain extent, Li Yuanqing also needed Mao Wenlong's "big move" on the Eastern Front to draw the attention of Hou Jin.

However, the gains and losses are difficult to calculate.

However, being able to fight, as long as you don't suffer a huge defeat and the entire army is annihilated, is naturally a good thing.

A strong soldier is actually like iron. Only after countless hard polishing can it become good steel and grow into a truly strong soldier.

Coupled with Mao Wenlong's shrewdness, it was basically impossible to suffer a huge defeat, including the annihilation of the entire army.

Li Yuanqing thought about it for a while, and from the perspective of a bystander, he replied a decent letter to Mao Wenlong. The main purpose was to remind Mao Wenlong to be prudent and not to make rash advances.

After all, Houjin's main force is no joke.

They went crazy, but they were crazier than mad dogs.

After dealing with Mao Wenlong's letter, Li Yuanqing relaxed his hands and feet, and was about to ask his soldiers to send him out, say love words to Wan'er, and tease the atmosphere first. At this time, a soldier outside reported, "Shang Laoliu wants to see you."

Li Yuanqing was stunned for a moment, but after a moment, he came back to his senses, waved his hand to Wan'er, kissed her hard on her red lips, and said with a smile: "Go back and warm up the bed for me. Also, I want to hug you tonight."

You sleep with Ruyi. I have something to do when I go out and will be there in a while."

Wan'er's pretty face turned red with embarrassment, but she was extremely happy. She nodded obediently and gently sent Li Yuanqing to the door, then reluctantly left.

When they came to the front hall, Shang Laoliu had been waiting for a while. When he saw Li Yuanqing coming, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Yuan Qing, Lao Shen, this time... I'm afraid that something really happened!"
