Zhang Liao glanced at Lu Ning and nodded when he saw Lu Ning. Zhao Yun and Zhang He were also thinking after listening to Lu Ning's words, because they were also thoughtful and people with ideas would also analyze the problem. Although Zhang Liao's words were a bit shocking, they were not unreasonable. If you consider them from the overall situation, it would be absolutely correct.

After thinking for a while, Lu Ning suddenly said to them: "I have something to ask you all, don't hunters bring hunting dogs with them when they go up the mountain to hunt? Why haven't I seen it before! Especially when I went hunting with hunters in Shanhou Village, I didn't see hunters bring hunting dogs. What's going on?"

After hearing this, Li You said: "Lord, we rarely use hunting dogs when hunting. We all hunt based on our own judgment. Of course, if the hunter's home lives exclusively or there are too few people, we will raise dogs, but in general, there are not many breeding. The common people mainly keep dogs by guarding the door."

After hearing this, Lu Ning said, "Can we get a good hunting dog? We will also raise a batch of hunting dogs and raise them with special people. Others cannot feed them. Let the hunting dogs only eat food specifically for the food they are in the hands of the raised people in the future."

Li You replied: "Lord, this is easy. We just need to pay for the hunter to buy it. We will send special people to raise it. But the weight will not be very large at once. Ordinary dogs are easy to find, but it still takes some energy to find hunting dogs. We need to send people to search in the mountains. If the price is right, it will usually be sold as long as you find it."

Zhang Liao said: "What do you want a hunting dog to do?"

Lu Ning did not answer Zhang Liao's question, but asked: "Wenyuan, you are from Mayi. Are your dogs afraid of the cold? In winter, on snowy days, do they dare to run around outside?"

After hearing this, Zhang Liao laughed and said, "Brother, what are you asking about this? Our dogs here, if they don't say it snows, they will run out even if they get a knife. What are they afraid of cold? I haven't heard that dogs are afraid of cold."

After hearing this, Lu Ning was very excited and laughed and said, "That's fine, just be not afraid of the cold. Oh, do you ask me what's the use? It's very useful, it can be used to track, keep watch, call the police, and pull things."

Zhang He was even more impressed. Brother, have you made a mistake? How much can you pull with a dog?

Zhang He looked up at Lu Ning and said, "Brother said it is used to pull things. How much can a dog be pulled? It is also used to keep watch and track, no, right?"

Lu Ning saw that it was not only Zhang He who had doubts, but Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao and Li You were both puzzled. What was going on?

Lu Ning said: "Dogs must be much more pulled than people. There is no doubt about this. It is true that you can't tell me clearly now. You will know when you use them in the future."

After hearing this, Zhao Yun said, "Brother, are you clear-headed now? You are not talking nonsense?"

Lu Ning looked up at them and said, "I know very well. Do you think I'm confused and talking nonsense? I didn't say anything. At that time, the dog will not only pull things, but also pull the wounded, pull the spoils, grab the seized supplies, etc. When I go back, I will arrange for Ergou to sell hunting dogs and strong big dogs."

Zhang Liao and the others shook their heads again and again. Are they drunk? What a joke? A big dog with strength is not as big as a person.

Zhang Liao stretched out three fingers with his left hand and said to Lu Ning: "Brother, how many fingers are these?"

Lu Ning laughed and said, "Several, three, do you really think I'm talking about alcohol."

Zhao Yun murmured in a low voice: "It seems that my brother is not drunk."

Lu Ning said: "Okay, since you are in good spirits, let's study the salary issues of our soldiers now? The rewards and punishments for external conquests and the distribution plan for seized materials in the future? We will not study them with the fifth brother. The fifth brother is too pedantic in some aspects. If he participates, he will probably object with both hands."

Zhang He said: "Brother said it was a soldier who wanted to pay his salary?"

Lu Ning said cautiously: "Yes, otherwise how can we mobilize the enthusiasm of soldiers to kill the enemy? Besides, some soldiers also have families, and some of them are strong laborers in their families. Now they come to fight the Tartars with us, which is due to hatred, but we also need to consider the actual problems of soldiers. Even single soldiers should consider that they can get married in the future and want to marry a wife. It must be spent money. Don't let the soldiers become a pauper after being a soldier for a few years, and they can't even afford to be a wife. That's not possible."

After hearing this, Zhang He said, "Brother, what you said makes sense. Since ancient times, those who served in the army have no salary or something. In fact, they only joined the army after they could not live a life. Some were arrested by arrested men. If they could pay salaries to soldiers, they would certainly inspire the soldiers' enthusiasm, improve the soldiers' combat capabilities, and attract more people to join the army to resist the invasion of the Tartars."

Zhang Liao said: "Brother, you have a good idea. The key is that we have money and grain to pay for the soldiers now. This is not a small number. The fifth brother called me all day long, saying that he was too tired to follow the elder brother, and he had no money, and had no food. You still have to ask him to take out money and grain to pay for the soldiers now, and he would definitely disagree."

Lu Ning laughed and said, "Of course I know that my fifth brother won't agree, so I don't let him participate in the research. Otherwise, how can I continue to study? Besides, we have no money, no food, so that we can use the talent of my fifth brother. If we have everything, what will the fifth brother do every day? It's either that I have nothing to do; it's just that he has to be so busy that he doesn't even have time to sleep. Only in this way can his talent be reflected, he will be happy in his heart, and he will have a sense of accomplishment. Did the third brother forget the situation when his fifth brother was kidnapped? It was completely a matter of being a big clan and a famous scholar. I won't be with you a wave of rough people, and I will never do anything, and I have no stance to take others into consideration."

After hearing this, Zhang Liao laughed and said, "This is true. I think that the fifth brother was kidnapped by Zhang Chuang. He was completely uncooperative. No matter how much good things you said, he just didn't say anything, he just stood up and raised his head, arrogant and rude, and looked down on anyone. At that time, we were all thinking about kidnapping in vain. This kid must be a dead pig and was not afraid of boiling water. He also knew that we would not treat him. At that time, we really wanted to step forward to repair him."

Zhao Yun smiled and said, "What's the reason why the fifth brother stayed obediently?"

Zhang Liao laughed happily and said to Zhao Yun: "At that time, the fifth brother was a stubborn bull. He didn't even blink his eyelids when the eldest brother said anything. Later, the eldest brother angered him, saying that he didn't understand this way or that, saying that he was not true, and that he had a false name, but he actually didn't understand the same thing. He was a person who deceived the world and thieved the name. Then the fifth brother was angry and spoke, and he fell into the trap of his elder brother without realizing it. It was too late to find out at that time."

Zhang He smiled and said, "It means that the fifth brother was scolded by his elder brother and stayed."

Zhang Liao said: "It can be said that."

Lu Ning said: "Okay, let's not talk about the fifth brother. I want to give each soldier one or two silver taels every month. When the finances improve in the future, the soldiers' military posts will be added. If they have made military achievements, they will be rewarded for their combat enthusiasm. In addition, since the soldiers are paid, they will have to pay for them when they go to the military prostitute venue in the future. They cannot let the county government always pay for them. If a soldier who does not pay for the military prostitute, I will be punished with strict discipline. If it doesn't work, I will cut off his little cock and make him a eunuch."

Lu Ning laughed as he talked, and Zhang He, Zhang Liao and the others also burst into laughter.

Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Brother, you have paid a lot of silver for a lot of money, which is equivalent to one hundred yuan. This is much better than farming at home."
