Chapter 224
Sima Lang said: "Okay, brother, since we have confirmed it, let's arrange specific matters now."
Lu Ning smiled and said, "You go and do your business, I will talk to the generals about military affairs."
Lu Ning looked at Ma Jun and nodded to him. Seeing Lu Ning's eyes, Ma Jun immediately said, "Lord, according to your requirements and instructions, we have now produced 300,000 saddles, 500,000 stirrups, 1 million horseshoes, and only 8,000 chariots were produced, and there are 2,000 cars in production. Among them, the horseshoes are very effective after trial on war horses, but they will be replaced after a period of time. The replacement is also very simple."
Now, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of Lu Ning Army will be greatly improved. Lu Ning said happily: "Thank you for your hard work, and you should remember great achievements. These equipment will be equipped with the army immediately. In this way, the combat capability of our cavalry will be greatly improved, and the lethality of the Feixiong Army is even more terrifying."
After hearing this, Zhao Yun said, "Brother, what are you saying is true. What exactly is it that can help the cavalry improve so much combat power."
Lu Ning smiled and said, "This is the secret weapon of our cavalry. It's just that the technical content is too low and it is easy to be imitated by others, so I haven't used it. Now it should be the time for our army to use it. You will know what it is after the equipment is equipped. Anyway, they are all good things, and you will all like it."
Zhang Liao said: "Brother, what about our next work arrangements?"
Lu Ning said: "Training soldiers, especially the newly reorganized Xiliang cavalry, must be well trained. Of course, the original soldiers must also be well trained, and at the same time, we must strengthen the ideological awareness education of soldiers. After the beginning of spring, we will fight the Huns and Tartars to eliminate them from this world."
Before dawn, Lu Ning returned home alone, washed up and went to bed, and slept until midnight before waking up. In fact, Cai Yan woke up Lu Ning. She wanted to carry her to make a comeback, but she refused, saying that it was in broad daylight, so Lu Ning had to do that. As soon as Lu Ning got up, Diao Chan and Zhen Mi and the others also came over. They asked Lu Ning why they didn't go home early. Lu Ning said that they would deal with some important matters, and that they could abandon their public service because of their own personalities.
Then Lu Ning went to pay tribute to Taishi Ci's mother and visited Xu Shu's mother. After seeing Xu Shu's mother, Lu Ning heard Diao Chan call her mother, which shocked Lu Ning. He never thought that Diao Chan was Xu Shu's sister. Lu Ning looked question marks. Seeing Lu Ning's appearance, Diao Chan smiled and said to Lu Ning: "Honey, I now recognize the old man as my adopted mother."
Lu Ning only reacted after hearing Diao Chan's words. Lu Ning thought to himself how could this be possible? If that was the case, it would be no mess. Lu Ning said with a smile on his face: "Okay, I'm considering who will let you be your elders when you get married to Sister Yan before the New Year? Not all problems will be solved now."
After Diao Chan and Cai Yan said Lu Ning's words, their faces turned red and shy. Although they were happy, they still felt shy when Lu Ning spoke it straight in front of so many people. After hearing this, Old Mrs. Xu said happily: "My daughter is going to get married, this is a great joy. Then I will help my daughter dress up well. You will be the most beautiful and happiest person in the world."
Now, at Lu Ning's house, Taishi Ci sent several young maids. The original Murong Yan came here again to serve Lu Ning's daily life. Lu Ning rested well at home for two days. However, his officials were very busy and used a large army to carry new currency to various places for the people to exchange. The internal affairs officials kept handling specific matters from top to bottom. They also sent a large number of soldiers to various places to post notices, and also explained to the people in various places why new currency was used, etc. Ma Jun was still suppressing a large amount of currency to prevent insufficient currency.
Five days later, Sima Lang and Gu Yong came to find Lu Ning, and Gu Yong said, "Lord, we collected more than 30 billion yuan of five coins in just five days? It is still the peak period for exchange. If we don't deal with the old coins as soon as possible and wait until all the cages are collected before processing, I'm afraid there will be any problems?"
Lu Ning was also shocked after hearing this. How could this be possible? There would be so many five coins in the state of Lu Ning alone? Lu Ning hurriedly said: "Will the people in our jurisdiction have so much money? This is unlikely, there must be a problem in the middle."
After hearing this, Sima Lang said, "Brother, the people in our jurisdiction do not have so much currency, but there are too many merchants in our jurisdiction and too many rich people. Now we use new currency together. Even other foreign merchants who only have small shops in our jurisdiction also send the old coins from other places to our jurisdiction to exchange them. This will of course exceed our imagination. If we do not take any measures, the situation will be worse and our losses will be even greater."
After hearing this, Lu Ning said: "Notify all borders to conduct strict inspections on all personnel and vehicles entering our jurisdiction. If any of the old currencies are confiscated by those carrying five coins, the Zhen family and the Mi family immediately mobilize all the strength of their family to help us throw out the collected old currencies as quickly as possible and buy back all the things we need in our jurisdiction. Even if the fortune is not back for a while, we must take action first. It is okay to ship the goods back a little later. In this way, even half of the losses are worth it. We must not be in our hands anymore. As for the last few billion old currencies, it is not a big problem."
Sima Lang and Gu Yong also left immediately to deal with the urgent matter just now. Lu Ning himself stayed for a long time. Due to such a small mistake, Lu Ning and others lost tens of billions of money. His grandmother's, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Of course, there were still too few civil officials under his command, especially fewer talented people, and only a few of them were young. If they really reached the peak of their ability, it would probably take several years. Lu Ning probably should have a good talk with Master Guan Ning. He has so many disciples, and although not many outstanding ones, he should be able to take a job and do some specific matters. Thinking of this, Lu Ning stood up and took Dian Wei and walked out.
After arriving at Guan Ning's mansion, the disciples in the mansion also knew Lu Ning, so they took Lu Ning in directly. First of all, Lu Ning gave a big gift to Master Guan, and then sat down. Guan Ning said to Lu Ning: "Ziyi, what wind has blown you, why do you think about coming to me, the old man?"
When Lu Ning heard this, he said that Lu Ning's apprentice is just a nameless person. He even rarely comes from the master's mansion. Now that he suddenly comes, he must have something to do.
