In this weird world, I use my body to control all things
Chapter 95: Awarded to the Chief of the Seventh Grade Salt Transportation Department.
"Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, issued an edict: Sun Shouren, the guard of Xingyuan Prefecture, had meritorious service in conquering foreign tribes in the past, and now has meritorious service in suppressing rebellion. He will be granted the title of a male from Anye County, with a salary of 800 shi."
Shiren, who came to read out the imperial edict, looked at Sun Shouren with a smile and reminded him softly, "General Sun, why don't you accept the edict?"
After receiving the reminder, Sun Shouren reacted and immediately bowed down.
"The humble minister accepts the order."
Daqian ministers do not need to kneel to the emperor. Whether they are receiving orders or going to court, they can just bow down and bow.
The reason for this is that the imperial power is not strong enough, but the aristocratic family is strong enough.
Some aristocratic families that have been passed down for thousands of years have even survived several generations of imperial courts and are considered to be extremely terrifying behemoths.
Sun Shouren received the imperial edict with excitement, and even forgot to give money to the deceased.
The reason why he still wanted to lead his troops to fight was because he wanted a title, and now because of the suppression of the rebellion and the accumulated merits, he finally got the title.
Even if he is just a county man, in terms of official position, he can be regarded as a fifth-grade official at most.
But official positions cannot be passed down, but titles can.
According to the rules of the Great Qian Dynasty, anyone who succeeds to the title will not be cut off for three generations.
In other words, this title has to be passed down for three generations before it is reduced downwards.
A county man can pass down the family wealth to at least four generations, ensuring the wealth of his children and grandchildren for the next five generations.
Fighting one's life and making achievements on the battlefield is not the purpose.
Now that his worries were over, how could he not be excited.
"Sir, thank you for your hard work. Please keep this money for tea for the brothers." Seeing this, Chen Mo came forward, took out a pile of banknotes from his arms, and stuffed it over.
When the man saw the banknote, he smiled.
"The rewards from the Ministry of War are at the back, and the county men's seals and ceremonial uniforms are also here."
He pointed to two gilded mahogany boxes on the side. Naturally, there could not be only one imperial edict for knighthood.
A full set of matching expenses will naturally be sent together with the reward.
"Sir, please walk slowly." Chen Mo smiled.
As several people left, Sun Shouren gradually came back to his senses. He was still very excited and could not control the smile on his face.
Although this time I was only awarded a title and no other rewards were given, I wouldn't exchange it for this title even if I was given ten thousand gold.
With the title, he has been a member of the noble class since then.
His children and grandchildren can enter the Imperial Academy and study together with the prince or even the prince.
It can be said that from the first moment he got this title, a new aristocratic family was destined to appear.
And the competition between his descendants and descendants for the next few generations is nothing more than determining the size of this family.
Unlike before, he had an inherent official position, but at most he could only benefit his grandchildren, and it was hard to say what would happen next.
But now that there is a title, as long as one of the next five or six generations of children and grandchildren is up to par, the family can be passed down for a long time.
The people in the palace left, and the Ministry of War came to hand out rewards.
Imperial decrees are not a piece of cake and cannot be obtained by everyone. Most rewards are still drawn up and issued by the Ministry of War.
"Instruct the kitchen to hold a banquet. If there are not enough people, find more people to help. After the banquet, I will give you a reward. After the reward is paid, you will be allowed to take turns to rest and go home."
Sun Shouren received the reward document from the Ministry of War, laughed loudly, and shouted to the many soldiers around him.
The fight is over, and now he is back home.
Naturally, many soldiers had to take a good rest and go home to visit relatives, and the bones of their comrades who unfortunately died had to be sent home.
The pension must also be sufficient, and there must be no deduction on this point. Only in this way will other soldiers under his command be willing to fight for him.
Hearing this, many soldiers were delighted and bowed to thank him.
Fighting on the road for more than a month was quite tiring for them.
Now back in the familiar military camp, many soldiers didn't even bother to lie down on the bed, and just slumped on the ground to rest.
Chen Mo, Mo Hu, Xu Dabao and others followed Sun Shouren into the study room, preparing to receive the award.
"Chen Mo." Sun Shouren sat at the desk and opened a document.
"The child is here." Chen Mo bowed and bowed.
"You ascended once, charged twice, killed one general, twenty-three demons, forty-seven warriors, and eight hundred and sixty-three ordinary thieves.
He recorded five major merits, twelve medium merits, and eighty-five minor merits. He was promoted to the fourth rank. You were promoted to the chief of the Salt Transportation Department of Xingyuan Prefecture. You will rush to take up the post at a certain date. "
After Sun Shouren finished reading the document, he smiled very happily.
As his adopted son, Chen Mo performed like this in this battle, and his adopted father's face was also bright.
"Thank you, foster father." Chen Mo took the appointment document with a smile.
It doesn't matter whether there is a military position with no rank or rank. Once you have a real rank, when the Ministry of War makes rewards, if you are promoted, you will no longer be given rewards such as money.
Chen Mo has someone above him, so he can get the official position.
If there is no one above, you can only take the silver coins, and after you get the silver coins, you will probably have to pay tribute to the upper part.
Therefore, it is said that if there is no one in the court, do not be an official.
Chen Mo himself is quite satisfied with this official position. One advantage of being the chief of the Salt Transportation Department is that he can travel between the four military camps.
Because as the head of the Salt Transportation Department, his duty is to patrol everywhere and search for illegal salt dealers.
It's just that no one is fulfilling this duty now. After I take office, I can fulfill it a little bit, three times a month is enough.
This way you can ensure that you have stability and a sufficient number of mirages every month.
"Mo Hu, he charged into the formation once, with three levels of demon slaying, seven strong men, and two hundred and ten ordinary thieves. His hard work has paid off.
Record one great merit, three medium merits, thirteen minor merits, and be rewarded with a Yunling Blood Nourishing Pill. "
Sun Shouren read Mo Hu's reward document again. Compared to Chen Mo, his record did seem a bit poor.
There's nothing you can do about it, the gap in strength between the two is too big.
In other words, not only him, but also Xu Dabao, Sun Li and four others, their records were all bundled together, and they couldn't even tie with Chen Mo.
"You have been promoted to the seventh-grade official position directly from your birthplace. It is an exceptional promotion. The Ministry of War cannot promote you again. If you go up to the sixth-grade without real power, you will probably not be as good as you are now."
Sun Shouren handed over the appointment document and told Mo Hu why his official position had not been promoted.
"The Spirit-Yunxue Nourishing Pill is quite rare. It's hard to find one in our house. By swallowing this pill, you have a chance to gather your inner energy.
Choose a time to practice in seclusion and seize this opportunity. "
Although he was not promoted to an official position, the reward given by the Ministry of War was not bad, a pill that could help foreign warriors condense their inner energy.
If Mo Hu can really cultivate his inner energy, his strength will definitely improve a lot. It will not be difficult to gain another six or seven hundred kilograms of energy at least.
Everyone else also has their own rewards, and they can basically improve their official positions.
Because except for Mo Hu, everyone else was in the ninth rank before, so they were promoted easily, as long as they had some merit.
It is not an easy task for a seventh-grade person to follow the sixth grade, especially the powerful sixth grade.
After awarding several people, Sun Shouren picked up a large pile of documents.
The heads killed by other ordinary soldiers have been exchanged for money and sent to them. However, how to distribute the money to each person's head and how much each person should be given, he has to personally calculate and calculate.
Confucius once said that when things are hard and trouble comes, the disciples will do their best.
Of course, Sun Shouren could not do the calculations by himself, although he had swordsmen, pens, clerks and clerks to do it.
But after finishing it, Chen Mo and others had to do a verification to ensure that the money would not be sent in error.
The verification will have to wait for a while. Chen Mo and others went to the camp to attend the banquet first.
It is said to be a banquet, but in fact it means slaughtering pigs and sheep, roasting or boiling them, and a group of ten people sit around and cook.
Even if a lot of people are brought in to help, the fire-headed soldiers in the camp will never be able to put on a hundred tables of banquets.
It’s good to be able to serve onion, garlic, chili, white salt, and divided pork and mutton.
Of course, the wine will definitely be enough.
Chen Mo dealt with it casually, that is, he ate half a sheep and drank the rice wine brewed by Santan Army.
After being drunk and full, he went to check the merit list this time. In fact, there was not much to check.
All he had to do was make sure that the Ministry of War's reward was equal to the amount of money distributed.
The reason why he was asked to verify it personally was to prevent some of the top soldiers from being dissatisfied with the money being distributed and going to make trouble with the documents.
And if he verifies it personally, even if someone is dissatisfied, they will not dare to come to him.
"Those bastards are so damn drunk again!" Seeing that Chen Mo was the only one doing things, Sun Shouren couldn't help but yelled with a red face.
Because he had drunk a lot of wine, he had already pulled up the clothes on his abdomen, revealing several scars from swords and guns.
"If you hadn't kept making them drink, they wouldn't have gotten drunk." Chen Mo shook his head slightly and complained.
He is not drunk not because he drinks little, but because he can drink.
Like him, Sun Shouren was not lying on the ground now because he was strong enough, not because he drank less.
Sun Shouren smiled sarcastically when he heard this. Although he felt he was wrong, he couldn't apologize. He sat next to Chen Mo and helped him do the calculations.
It took more than an hour to roughly calculate the amount, and then waited for more than two hours until everyone sobered up in the afternoon, and then the reward money from the Ministry of War was distributed bit by bit.
Whether they are soldiers or soldiers, they are all happy when they receive the reward, and they hurriedly put the money into their arms.
"No one is allowed to fucking gamble for me. I can use the silver reward to buy two acres of land and buy some things for my father, my mother, my wife and my children.
If anyone fucking puts it out for gambling and I find out, I will fucking skin you alive! "
Looking at the big-headed soldier who had received the reward, Sun Shouren both scolded and exhorted.
In fact, if he didn't have a ban, gambling with the military commander Pao Ze would not be allowed.
I'm afraid that the loot some people got earlier has now been lost.
And the reason why we are entrusted now is to allow these people to take their money home safely.
You can't spend much money on eating, drinking and whoring, but when it comes to gambling, it's a bottomless pit that can't be filled.
Everyone shrank their necks and nodded in agreement.
They knew that General Sun was definitely not kidding them.
After distributing the silver reward to the living, the next step is to provide compensation to the unfortunate victims.
There were not many casualties among the soldiers in the camp. After all, each of them wore iron armor and were well-trained.
So unfortunately, only five people were sacrificed, and of the eight hundred soldiers, eighty-two people were sacrificed.
Because they only have leather armor, and the limbs that Dutiandao Qi Refining Monk sacrificed can just break through the leather armor.
The silver reward issued by the Ministry of War and the spoils of war distributed to them do not count. Each of the personal soldiers will be given an additional one hundred taels of pension, and the combat soldiers will be given fifty taels.
This is not a small amount of money. Fifty taels of silver is enough to buy several acres of land.
Then arrange for special personnel to return the bones and provide compensation, all the way doing things under the banner of General Sun.
So that local powerful people and officials know who sent the money, so that no one will have any undue thoughts about the money.
Immediately, many soldiers were arranged to take turns to take a rest, and were responsible for the defense of the camp and the beating of gongs at night.
After Chen Mo finished helping with these things, it was already late at night.
Except for the soldiers who were on duty at night and beat the gongs, most people had gone back to their rooms to rest.
Chen Mo fetched some water, wiped himself clean, and walked back to his barracks.
The wooden boxes containing the Kui Niu bow and most of the harvest were placed in the house.
Chen Mo ignored it and walked aside to calm down and adjust his breathing to prepare for the next transformation.
