?Chapter 109: Chapter 106 Meeting Liang Chu Chapter 109: Chapter 106 Meeting Liang Chu After Zhou Lan left, Yang Zhenshan began distributing reward silver and consolation money.
Consolation money was straightforward since it was distributed per head count.
When reporting the numbers, Yang Zhenshan had made no false claims, and Zhou Lan gave him the full amount, which he naturally passed on in full.
As for the reward silver, there were more than eight hundred soldiers who had followed him into battle, each would receive reward silver for one decapitated enemy head, that is, five taels of silver per soldier. The other soldiers had not participated in the battle but had maintained their posts, so they should also receive a reward, giving them each one tael.
The officers, the small flags involved in the war received ten taels, the General Flag received twenty taels, and the Hundred Households received fifty taels; those not involved in the battle received one-tenth of that.
Yang Mingwu, as the Deputy Thousand Households, received one hundred taels, while Yang Zhenshan himself took two hundred taels.
The civil servants within the garrisons were also given some reward silver by Yang Zhenshan.
Finally, about a thousand taels were left, which Yang Zhenshan handed over to the government’s accounting office for his use.
Distributing reward silver was a joyful matter.
And distributing consolation relieved the families who had lost their loved ones.
Under Yang Zhenshan’s supervision, the reward silver and consolation money were quickly distributed to every soldier and military household.
The soldiers who received the reward silver were naturally grateful towards Yang Zhenshan, holding him in high esteem.
In fact, the reward silver was rightfully theirs, Yang Zhenshan merely facilitated its distribution, yet they held him in the highest regard.
That was because in the past, not to mention reward silver, they had not even received full rations.
Ever since Yang Zhenshan took office, their rations had never been embezzled, and now that they had received reward silver, it was no wonder they revered Yang Zhenshan.
The family members who received consolation also felt greatly comforted, and they too were extremely grateful to Yang Zhenshan.
Nearly fifty taels of silver, for these military households who had lost loved ones, were like sending charcoal in snowy weather.
With this sum of silver, they could live comfortably for at least a few years.
After handling the matters of reward silver and consolation money, Yang Zhenshan called Yang Mingzhi.
“Tomorrow you go to the stable and lead two young horses to give to General Zhou.”
