"so much?"
After traveling here for a few days, Jiang Yan has roughly understood the prices of goods in this era. Five thousand yuan is enough to make half a millionaire.
Quite rich.
You have to know that farmers nowadays have trouble even getting enough food, and they simply cannot save any money throughout the year. Even if they have savings, it is estimated to be only a few dozen or a hundred yuan, but Lu Yunsheng actually has a full five thousand yuan.
Seeing his young wife's surprised expression, Lu Yunsheng smiled and said, "I don't have to pay for food in the army, and the military uniform is also issued by the army. I basically have no place to spend money, and I save all my salary."
"In my first year in the army, my monthly allowance was 6 yuan. In my second year, I became a squad leader. There is no subsidy for squad leaders, but my allowance increased to 7 yuan a month."
"In the third year, we were on a mission and the deputy platoon leader was injured and had to retire. I was promoted to deputy platoon leader and officially got a salary of 45 yuan per month. In the fourth year, the platoon leader retired and I was promoted to platoon leader, with my salary rising to 63 yuan."
"In the same year, our company participated in a fierce battle, and less than half of us survived. The company commander, deputy company commander, and several platoon leaders were all killed. After I came back, I was promoted twice to become company commander, with a monthly salary of 80 yuan."
"In the sixth year, the deputy battalion commander of our battalion also retired, and I took over as deputy battalion commander with a monthly salary of 89 yuan."
"Last November, the former battalion commander was transferred to the Northern Army Corps. After discussion, the superiors decided that I would take over. My salary was also increased accordingly. Now it is 101 yuan per month."
"In addition to wages, there are bonuses for missions. Over the years, the total amount is about 1,200 to 1,300."
Every time Lu Yunsheng said something, Jiang Yan calculated in her mind. Lu Yunsheng's salary and allowances added up to more than six thousand, nearly seven thousand yuan.
However, Lu Yunsheng has only been in the army for eight years, and he was promoted so quickly because his superiors were either transferred, retired, or died.
It is conceivable that being a soldier in this era is not a safe profession, it is really life-threatening!
But look at it from another perspective.
Lu Yunsheng is a disaster star. It's like there is a curse on him. All leaders and superiors are in danger at any time and should be prepared to give way.
Looking at the amount of money recorded in the payroll and the various receipts clipped in it, Jiang Yan felt a surge of excitement in her heart and suddenly felt like she had made a fortune. In an instant, she became a half-millionaire.
Jiang Yan was so happy that she looked up at Lu Yunsheng and asked generously, "How much pocket money do you need?"
"Pocket money?"
Lu Yunsheng didn't expect that he would have pocket money. He had heard other comrades complain that they would become paupers after getting married.
Before Lu Yunsheng could speak, Jiang Yan continued, "Everyone is in a bad situation right now. If the soldiers below are in trouble, you as the battalion commander must still support them. How about this, I will give you ten yuan a month."
Lu Yunsheng originally thought that his wife was just giving him one or two yuan as a token of appreciation, but he didn't expect her to give him ten yuan directly.
He smiled faintly, "That's too much, three pieces will do."
"Three dollars is not too little, I'll give you five. If there is any extra, you can save it and buy me a gift later."
The money originally belonged to Lu Yunsheng. If she didn't even give him pocket money, people would say she was stingy and a bitch.
Besides, how can a man buy her a gift if he has no money? If he takes money from her, he will spend it on himself in the end. Jiang Yan has confidence in Lu Yunsheng.
Hearing Jiang Yan's little plan, Lu Yunsheng smiled happily, "Okay, I'll save the extra money to buy you a gift."
After placing the payroll on the table, Jiang Yan returned to the master bedroom and took out the banknotes she had brought with her to total the amount.
"With your money plus the money I extorted from the Jiang family, and the money given by my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, our family now has a total of 5,424 yuan, and a lot of various bills."
Jiang Yan was pleasantly surprised, her palm-sized face burst into laughter, "Lu Yunsheng, our family is very wealthy, so rich."
Her skin is naturally fair, and when she is in a good mood her complexion becomes even brighter. Her little face, with its rosy whiteness, is extremely beautiful.
Lu Yunsheng couldn't help but reach out and rub the top of her head. "Just say this in front of me. Don't say it outside. If someone has bad intentions, I will report it."
"Yes, I remember."
Jiang Yan lightly nodded her fair chin, and Lu Yunsheng's heart warmed up. His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he suppressed this inexplicable anger.
"Let's go, let's go to the city early and come back early."
Putting all the money and bills into the cloth bag, actually storing them into the space, Jiang Yan put on the cloth bag and hurried to catch up with Lu Yunsheng.
Today we didn't drive a 212 jeep like yesterday, but a truck. Probably because we were considering buying furniture today, so we borrowed this vehicle that can carry large items.
There was also a young soldier next to the car. He didn't look very old, about fifteen or sixteen years old, still a kid.
Seeing Jiang Yan coming out, he hurriedly smiled and greeted her, "Hello, sister-in-law."
Jiang Yan smiled slightly, "Hello, my name is Jiang Yan, what's your name?"
"My name is Jiang Manfu." The young soldier scratched his head embarrassedly, feeling a little shy.
"We want to buy some large pieces of furniture, so we're sorry to bother you today." Jiang Yan has a natural liking for such simple people, and the smile on her face is very sincere.
"It's okay. I happened to be on my day off today, so I came out to help the battalion commander."
Afterwards, Jiang Yan sat in the back seat, the young soldier sat in the passenger seat, Lu Yunsheng drove, and the three of them drove towards the city.
Seeing that today's route was different from yesterday's, Jiang Yan asked.
After listening to Lu Yunsheng's explanation, she realized that they were going to another city. Although the military district was in Zhanchuan, they were actually closer to the urban area of the other city and could arrive in just two and a half hours.
Generally, when shopping in military district family compounds, people will choose to go to the neighboring Shanglin City. Firstly, it is closer, and secondly, the economic conditions there are relatively better and there are more types of goods.
