Jingtai first year, Chinese New Year's Eve, Yushan Town.

As early as before Chinese New Year's Eve, Liu Juntao had already sent out invitations, inviting friends from all parties who had congratulated him before, as well as many heroes, to Yushan Town, and held a banquet in Yushan Town, and drank and talked with everyone on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Due to Guo Muying's heavy body, Liu Juntao hesitated to settle him temporarily in Yanzhou City, but Guo Muying insisted on going back to Yushan Town with Liu Juntao for the New Year, and Liu Juntao could only nod and agree.

At the banquet, people from all walks of life led by Mr. Shan and Li Qianhu raised their glasses to Liu Juntao, and Liu Juntao was also accompanied by Liu Zi'an and Lan Siqi, and frequently clinked glasses with everyone.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was a little drunk, and most of them sat down separately, or chatting and laughing, or eating food.

According to everyone's understanding of Liu Juntao, Liu Juntao has always been a rabbit with grass, and always uses the introduction of one thing to do several things together.

Therefore, everyone, including Mr. Shan and Li Qianhu, was not in a hurry to leave, but sat back and waited for Liu Juntao's next words.

At this time, Liu Juntao returned to the main table, and then got up and said loudly: "Everyone! Today's Chinese New Year, I have something I want to say to you, and I ask you to correct me! ”

The play meat is coming!

As a result, more than 200 people present came over one after another, and the whole banquet was silent.

Liu Juntao smiled slightly, looked around, and said, "You are all my friends in Yushan Town, and some of them are still my friends in life and death!" There are no outsiders here today, so I'll be straight to the point! ”

Hearing this, a man in a strong suit laughed and said, "Haha, Mr. Liu said so seriously, it won't be to raise troops, right?" ”

Everyone burst into laughter.

Liu Juntao also laughed and said, "Han Dangjia is laughing! How could I, Liu Juntao, do such a thing? What I'm talking to you about today are two things that are closely related to you, and they are also very beneficial things! ”

Li Qianhu couldn't help but coax when he heard this: "Then Mr. Liu, let's talk about it, what is going on?" Don't hang my appetite for waiting! ”

As soon as the words ended, everyone laughed again.

Liu Juntao said: "One of them is that the soldiers and horses under my command will be expanded in half a year!" ”

Everyone has long known that Liu Juntao has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, not only well-trained and well-equipped, but also most of the officers and soldiers in the army are fierce soldiers who have experienced battle formations, which can be described as strong soldiers and horses.

Now, Liu Juntao has spoken again, and the battalions and horses under his command will be expanded again, how far will Liu Juntao's power swell at that time?

For a while, everyone's hearts were shocked, especially Mr. Shan and Li Qianhu.

The two originally thought that they and Liu Juntao's Yushan Town were a tripartite alliance on an equal footing, but when Liu Juntao was promoted to the chief military officer and opened the town of Yanzhou Mansion, the huge industry of Yushan Town and the invincible combat power of the army under Liu Juntao suddenly made Mr. Shan and Li Qianhu feel that they could no longer be on an equal footing with Liu Juntao!

"Maybe from now on, my family can only follow the same path behind Yushan Town!"

Mr. Shan and Li Qianhu secretly thought in their hearts, but the two of them didn't have any other thoughts, they just sighed.

Immediately afterwards, a question arose in everyone's hearts: What does the expansion of the army under Liu Juntao have to do with their own family?

I only heard Liu Juntao say loudly: "This time the expansion of soldiers and horses under my command is different from the past!" This time, the expansion of my Yushan Town army must not only select honest and strong men from farmers from all over the country, but also select some elite warriors to enter the camp! ”

Speaking of this, Liu Juntao observed everyone's expressions, and saw that everyone was thoughtful, so he smiled slightly, and continued: "I know that you have a lot of capable people, if you are willing to let your own children go to my Yushan Town recruit camp for training and enlist in the army, then you can increase a lot of points in my Yushan Town, and in the future, you can get better treatment than others in business and tuntian." At the same time, you will also have a share of the spoils captured by the army in the future! ”

At this time, everyone fell into deep thought.

Regarding Liu Juntao's proposal, a few people mistakenly thought that Liu Juntao wanted to merge his own industry, so he would take the first step to seize his own manpower!

But these people think about it, what is the value of their own family? So what is Liu Zongbing's worth?

When you think about it, these people all figured it out.

And most people are very interested in Liu Juntao's proposal, after all, Liu Juntao's army has never been defeated, if his own family can join in, Liu Juntao will fly in the future, and his own family will definitely be able to follow suit!

So, Li Qianhu asked loudly: "Mr. Liu, how many of the quotas for this expansion are going to be allocated to us?" ”

Liu Juntao stretched out two fingers and said, "Two percent!" ”

"Twenty percent?"

Liu Juntao said with a smile: "The detailed plan for this expansion has not yet been sorted out, and the specific number of people has not yet been determined. However, no matter how much the number of troops and horses under my command is expanded, at least it will not be less than 10,000 horses, that is, at least more than 2,000 people will be allocated to everyone! If the brothers sent to the new barracks in Yushan Town for training exceed 20% of the total strength, I will select the best and integrate them into each battalion, and all the brothers who failed will be sent back to their families, as if I Yushan Town helped everyone practice! ”

More than 2,000 people!

Such a number of people is still very objective, and even if your own son is not selected, you can learn a skill, you must know that the elite of the soldiers and horses in Yushan Town is seen by the world, why not?

For a while, everyone was tempted!

Mr. Shan took the lead and said loudly: "Mr. Liu is concerned about the imperial court, and Yan Shenggong has always admired him very much, so this expansion of the army, Yan Shenggong will also fully support it!" ”

Li Qianhu also said that he would go back and send his elite soldiers to be trained with Lei Bo, the commander of Ren Chengwei.

The rest of the people also expressed their positions, and Liu Juntao was also very satisfied when he saw this.

After that, Liu Juntao continued: "The second thing is that all industries in my Yushan Town will be fully opened!" ”

Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, and hurriedly asked.

Liu Juntao continued: "Among the workshops in my Yushan Town, there are Liu's Erguotou, Yushan Town glaze, horse-drawn carriages, Huangming brand cement, etc., all kinds of goods, all of which are best-selling products in the world!" This time, I will announce the manufacturing skills of these goods, if you are willing to open your own factory to produce these goods, you can pay money to buy a production license, in exchange for the corresponding production technology, this is the specific price list! ”

After Liu Juntao finished speaking, Lan Siqi asked some of his subordinates to distribute stacks of papers to everyone, and Mr. Shan, Li Qianhu and others looked down one after another.

"Huangming brand cement production license: 100,000 taels of silver!"

"Liu's Erguotou Production License: 80,000 taels of silver!"

Then, everyone stared at Liu Juntao with a foolish look, and their faces were full of incredulity, Liu Juntao actually gave away all his cornucopia!

Who knew that Liu Juntao immediately changed his words and said: "But I have a word first, you want to get all kinds of skills in my Yushan Town, there are also many restrictions!" ”

Mr. Shan and Li Qianhu said almost in unison: "I want to hear it!" ”

"One: This production license has a time limit, and the production license for all goods is only valid for three years, and after you buy it, you must renew the silver every three years, and the amount is the original purchase price! The Ministry of Commerce of Yushan Town will come to collect it on time. ”

When everyone heard this, this meant that although they had bought a production license for a certain kind of goods, they had to hand over a lot of money to Yushan Town every three years!

But before everyone could digest this article, Liu Juntao continued: "Second: after you buy the production license of a certain goods, the Ministry of Commerce of Yushan Town will come to collect a commission every year, which will be charged at 2% of the total price of the goods you sold that year!" Of course, in order to avoid unnecessary disputes, the Ministry of Commerce will send people to audit the accounts from time to time. ”

Everyone also understands this, Liu Juntao not only asks everyone to pay a large sum of silver every few years, but also takes another layer from their profits every year!
