Chapter 874: Unexpected Joy
The medical battalion is a unique establishment of the Jiangning Army in Daming, where almost all the medical officers and nurses of the Jiangning Army are gathered.
Since the debut of the Jiangning Army, whether it is the Liaodong, the expedition to Mongolia and the destruction of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, after so many major battles, the mortality rate of the Jiangning Army has been maintained at a low level, and it can be said that the medical battalion has made great contributions.
In this era, once a soldier was wounded, the mortality rate was quite high. It is simply a miracle that the Jiangning Army was able to reduce the casualty rate of soldiers in this era from 780 percent to less than 5 percent, and this is one of the reasons why the morale of the Jiangning Army has been able to maintain a very high state since its establishment.
Because the soldiers know that as long as you are not too unlucky, your head is cut off on the spot or you are killed on the spot, otherwise even if you are missing arms and legs, the medical officer of the medical battalion can pull you back from the hands of Lord Yama, so it is not surprising that the morale of the soldiers on the battlefield is high.
After several years of expansion, the medical camp has also changed from two or three big cats and kittens to a huge organization with more than 500 medical officers and more than 2,000 nurses.
Not only that, at the beginning of the establishment of the original medical battalion, due to the shortage of personnel, Yang Feng even hit the head of Qinhuaihe with the idea, and attracted many Qinglou women from Qinhuaihe to come over to fill the number, so at the beginning of its establishment, the reputation of the medical battalion can be described as a stinky ten, and people think that the medical officers and nurses of the medical battalion are just a group of camp prostitutes.
But look at it now, who else dares to say this about the medical officers and nurses of the medical battalion, without their women speaking, the soldiers of the Jiang Ning Army will take the initiative to beat him half to death.
Because the gloomy wood was sold for a large price, Yang Daguan's mood was very happy, after all, when he bought this gloomy wood, he only spent fifty taels of silver, but sold more than one billion, and the huge profits obtained from this coming and going are more than ten million times.
As a person who knows gratitude, Yang Feng can't do this kind of muffled thing to make a fortune, so after he came back, he came to the medical camp as soon as he came, ready to visit the girl who sold him the gloomy wood and her mother.
In a small but spacious and bright wooden house, Yang Feng saw the girl who had sold her gloomy wood.
Today's Catherine's complexion is much better than more than half a month ago, although her complexion was also very white more than half a month ago, but if you look closely, it belongs to the kind of malnourished pale, after more than half a month of conditioning, her complexion is more white than that of a young girl, coupled with a tall and convex figure, it looks extremely attractive.
But what has changed the most is that the original stubborn expression on her face has disappeared a lot, replaced by a faint calm.
However, when Yang Feng saw the camouflage uniform belonging to Jiang Ningjun she was wearing, his brows first furrowed slightly, "Catherine, we meet again." ”
Seeing Yang Feng speak, Catherine hurriedly knelt down: "Catherine of the Luzon grass people has seen Lord Hou, I wish Lord Hou all the best!" ”
Hearing Catherine's nondescript title, Yang Feng couldn't help but be happy, he shook his head with a smile: "Get up, Catherine, I don't kneel here, you just need to do ordinary etiquette." By the way, you can call me Master Hou in the future, and the two words of the adult will be exempted. ”
"Yes...... Master Hou! Catherine replied respectfully.
"Hmm!"
Yang Feng nodded: "How is your mother?" Is it better? ”
"It's much better, Lord Xie asked. This time, my mother was able to survive, thanks to the grace of Hou Ye's life, and the grass people could not repay it, and they were willing to tie the grass ring to repay Hou Ye's great kindness. ”
"Huh!"
Yang Feng asked a little strangely: "Listening to your taste, it seems that you have read our Ming books." ”
Catherine replied respectfully: "Yes, although my father was a Spaniard, he had great respect for the culture of the Ming Dynasty, so he specially invited a teacher to teach the folk girls some Ming etiquette and poetry books when he was not outdated. ”
"Well, I see." Yang Feng nodded, and then asked, "Is that ebony also left with you by your father?" ”
"Yes, that ebony was accidentally dug by my father next to a river in his early years, and it seems that more than a dozen were found at that time, but it is located in a remote place, and it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to transport these woods out. The father had no choice but to temporarily put an ebony ......"
"Wait!"
Yang Feng interrupted her, and his face became a little excited.
"Are you saying that your father found not just one, but many?"
Seeing Yang Feng's somewhat excited look, Catherine was taken aback, "Uh...... What did my father tell me at that time? However, due to transportation difficulties, my father ran out of money and could only transport a piece of ebony out, and my father thought that he could sell it for a good price, but he never thought that no one would care about it until his father died. ”
Yang Feng couldn't wait to ask, "Then do you know where your father dug up that ebony back then?" ”
"I know, my father once told the people about the place, but the people never went there."
"Good...... That's great! ”
Yang Feng couldn't help but laugh out loud.
A few years ago, the golden silk nan ebony sold was sold for 1.2 billion yuan, and if he could dig out more than ten more ebony, then he would no longer be able to worry about the military expenses of the Jiangning army.
Don't look at Yang Feng's business in modern times now, it is often more than one billion sales per year, hundreds of millions of profits, but Yang Feng's expenses are also very large.
The army under his command alone has more than 60,000 people in the Jiangning army, and if you add the Fujian Navy, the number of the army is already close to the 100,000 mark, and the 100,000 troops alone eat and chew an astronomical amount every day, not to mention the gold-swallowing beast of the Sailor.
To take the simplest example, the dozens of warships that Yang Feng ordered at the Black Sea Shipyard two days ago cost Yang Feng the 1.2 billion that he sold his ebony. This is just the beginning, once these warships join the Fujian Naval Division, the gunpowder, projectiles, various expenses of the sailors and the maintenance of the fleet to be trained every month are an astronomical amount, so the money is not too much at any time.
Now Yang Feng naturally became excited when he heard the news that there were still more than ten ebony, if he could transport these ebony to the modern society and sell them, even if their value was not as good as the golden silk nan ebony that he sold for the first time, it would be a great fortune, which would also be of great help to Yang Feng.
Thinking of this, Yang Feng couldn't help but have a scorching light in his eyes when he looked at Catherine, as if he thought of seeing a huge gold mine.
Catherine was also taken aback by Yang Feng's gaze, this Hou Ye's eyes were too scary, could it be that he had any thoughts about himself.
