Chapter 120: The North Camp is Stabilized
In Beiying, Nanchen had just informed all officers and soldiers of the numerous crimes committed by the former garrison commander and his accomplices, and announced that Beiying had lost a total of 30,000 taels of money, of which 10,000 taels were soldiers' salaries. If they did not feel the loss of Beiying deeply, when it came to the salaries that were closely related to them, they immediately felt the pain as if their flesh was cut, causing an uproar, and the soldiers' anger level was directly maxed out. They shouted directly to severely punish corrupt officials and recover assets! Nanchen took the opportunity to win over the hearts of the people, pointing out that the main criminals had been arrested, and some were still at large. Once the truth is found out, the losses of Beiying will definitely be recovered. At present, Beiying is facing a serious test of lack of both people and money. I hope everyone can unite as one and overcome the difficulties.
Nanchen then asked the officers and soldiers involved in the operation to count the three thousand taels of silver confiscated from the casino and the one thousand taels of gambling money from the gamblers. All of this was recorded as salary. In order to avoid corruption in the future, the income and expenditure accounts of the previous month must be made public at the beginning of each month for everyone to supervise. Such measures are popular with the people. As long as they can ensure that the salary can be collected and no longer disappears quietly, people can feel at ease. People are so simple. As long as their own interests are guaranteed, everything will be fine.
Then he introduced the new centurion Xu Sheng who led the 100 people, as well as the centurion He of the logistics support department and the manager Li of the procurement department. From now on, the money and accounts of the team will be managed by these two managers. They are all talents trained by the prince, and I believe they can work together to make the North Camp better, bigger and stronger!
The crowd applauded and praised him endlessly. The prince sent people when he needed them most, which undoubtedly showed his appreciation for the North Camp. And it was fair that only two centurions were appointed, and the rest were all low-level personnel.
Just when the team was about to disband, Hua Heng arrived with a team of free doctors from the Qingnang Medical Clinic. This scene was not the most shocking, but the long line of people behind them. They also shouted slogans such as "One person joins the army, the whole family is honored", "Don't let the soldiers bleed and cry"... People will empathize with things that are closely related to themselves, so these shocking crowds shouted shocking slogans, and shook more than 2,000 men to tears. They were recognized and moved!
Hua Heng led the free clinic team into the camp, but the large group of people behind him made it difficult. Entering the camp increased the difficulty of management. If they were not allowed to enter the camp, it would not look good to have so many people watching. Nanchen also discovered this problem and asked Manager He to immediately have people carry tables and chairs and place them outside the camp gate in a row, secretly reminding them to write "New Recruitment Consultation Office" on it. The people brought by Xu Sheng immediately understood, so they stood in front of the table and began to introduce the recruits. Not to mention, it really attracted the idle old men to watch. There were more than ten people watching at a table, and they learned a lot of knowledge about the recruits through questions and answers. Manager Li was even smarter and asked people to carry out large barrels of tea and place a large number of bamboo tubes for people to use. Although the tea was not valuable, it was very popular. Think about walking a few miles with the team and shouting for a few miles, and you must be thirsty! The favorability of the North Camp was instantly improved. Sympathy plus favorability, if nothing unexpected happens, will spare no effort to introduce the North Camp to people. The knowledge of the recruits just learned is enough. As long as you are healthy and have a clean family background, you are welcome to sign up. It doesn't matter if you don't have talent, Beiying will teach you how to practice skills. It doesn't matter if you don't have education, Beiying will teach you how to read. In addition, the slogan "One person joins the army, the whole family is honored!" is taken care of both face and money, and it is very safe.
"My little boy is seventeen years old."
"I think it's a good idea. I have several bachelors in my family, so why not send one or two of them to be rehabilitated?"
"Oh, you're making me, an old man, want to sign up."
"Hahaha, you're already an old man, and you're still trying to steal jobs from young people?"
"Orphans are accepted too. I have to go back and tell my neighbor's poor orphan about this."
"Oh, fifteen to forty years old, this age is obviously the age of the son and the father. Is this what they mean when father and son fight together in battle?"
...Well, there's nothing wrong with your interpretation. The person in charge of reception tried hard not to bang the table and laugh, and could only let the smile on his face become more and more sincere.
"If you are interested, you can fill out the form today and register for a free physical examination." Wow, this is the best use of the free doctor. The discussion outside the camp was lively and full of participation. The camp was well-organized, with each team limited to ten people, and the rest had to work and wait for the next rotation.
Hua Heng ran to hand over the task to his second brother, and told him to remember to take care of the medical staff in his family and take care of their food and drink, and he could do whatever he wanted with them. He felt that his task was completed, and he had to go home to accompany his wife.
"Fifth Brother, will this high-profile behavior bring you trouble? Doesn't your ancestral teaching require you to keep a low profile and live in seclusion?" Nanchen was grateful for his brother's help, but he could also see the risks involved.
"Times have changed since then. Back then, our ancestor encountered suspicious people in power, so he was imprisoned and finally had to fake his death to avoid the world. You must remember the ancestral teachings. I only used the name of the clinic, not the name of my master. Don't worry, second brother. I know my limits, and I have made arrangements." Hua Heng understood his second brother's concerns, but he was not so easily manipulated.
"That's good. I need to be busy for a while before I can go home. It's a good opportunity for me to take advantage of this opportunity to reorganize the army in one go! I'll feel at ease if you take care of the family!" Nanchen also explained his future work to his family so that they wouldn't worry.
"Brother, my wife is worried about you, remember to take good care of yourself!" Hua Heng conveyed his wife's concerns, and thinking of that soft-hearted woman, their eyes became soft. "Yes! I know, you go back!"
Due to Hua Heng's unexpected operation, the effect was particularly good! Not to mention the winning of the hearts of the people in the camp, the order of recruiting new soldiers was also unexpected. The number of applicants reached 300 that afternoon, and they were immediately admitted to the camp after a physical examination. It can be said that as long as they were not seriously ill, they were basically accepted, which made those centurions who were alone laugh. In the next few days, the enthusiasm for recruiting people at the gate of the camp was even higher. The people sent by the villa have their own advantages. They are educated, capable, trained, and generous, so their integration into the North Camp from the grassroots is very effective.
The North Camp became the center of attention overnight. As a victim, it not only occupied the moral high ground but also won the sympathy of the masses. There were many people who pleaded for the North Camp to severely punish the ringleader, and the voices were extremely high. This public pressure also had the effect of deterring other camps. Everyone was in danger and immediately conducted self-inspections. Those who had to change their punishments would be punished, and those who had to make up for what was wrong would be made up. After all, no one could guarantee that there would be no problems under their rule. Nanchen had not expected such a trend of self-inspection. He deeply understood the benefits of management according to the rules, which saved him a lot of time to rectify the rest of the camps. Li Chi of the East Camp specially came to visit the North Camp and invited General Nan to go to the East Camp for guidance. He was particularly grateful to Nanchen for showing mercy to his men and letting him investigate himself, otherwise he might also lose face.
