Chapter 156: Flintlock Musketeers
After Jiang Chuan looked at the three jade plates, he found that the golden light on the jade cards had all disappeared, and only three jade cards were left lying quietly in his hands.
At this time, the principal next to him said, "Congratulations to the lord for getting the assistance of the three sages. According to the price of 10,000 gold coins and 1,000 reputation points for each sage to summon, your lordship, you have consumed a total of 30,000 gold coins and 3,000 reputation points. This fee will be deducted automatically. ”
Jiang Chuan was stunned for a moment, looked back at Xiao Buyi, the chief manager behind him, and found that he nodded and said that he had received the news of the deduction.
"Dare to ask Mr. Principal, when will I be able to meet these three sages?" Jiang Chuan asked back.
"Rest assured, my lord, within three days, the three sages will appear before you. However, it is necessary to inform the lord that these sages do not have any memories of their lives, and only one of their knowledge and abilities is still retained, so please let them go. ”
The director of the temple explained.
Jiang Chuan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then understood what he meant. These sages came from different dynasties, and if they still retained their original memories and national feelings, they were likely to get together and fight.
For example, if Shang Ying is summoned one day, and he meets Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and even Chu and Han characters such as the overlord of Chu, one is to help Qin become rich and strong, and the other is the person who destroyed Qin, it is strange that these two groups of people can not fight.
So the setting of the system is still good, very user-friendly. Only retain their knowledge and ability, but all these things are cleared out of the hatred of the country and the family, and even rearrange some different memories for them, which avoids these things.
"Thank you so much, Jiang Chuan farewell." After Jiang Chuan said goodbye, he took Xiao Buyi to the Hanlin Academy, which was not far from the Xianliang Temple.
The manager of the Hanlin Temple is called the Great Sacrifice Wine of the Hanlin Temple, which is equivalent to the president of the university.
After inquiry, the scholars here are divided into three levels: lifting jinshi, lifting people, and showing talents.
To recruit a jinshi, it costs 1,000 gold coins and 200 reputation points. It costs 500 gold coins and 100 reputation to recruit a lifter. It costs 100 gold coins and 50 reputation points to recruit a talent.
Of course, since there are levels, there are differences in the abilities of these people. Of course, Jinshi is the best, and Xiucai is the weakest.
Jiang Chuan summed it up, and finally recruited ten jinshi, twenty lifters, and one hundred talents, spending a total of 30,000 gold coins and 9,000 prestige points.
Of course, it is also an automatic deduction, and the bills have been notified to Xiao Buyi, the head of the City Lord's Mansion.
The Great Sacrifice Wine said that these 130 scholars would find Jiang Chuan to report within three days, and at that time, they would take the jade slips on each person's body as a letter.
With these 130 scholars, Jiang Chuan felt that the basic framework of his political power in Liaodong could be almost erected.
After saying goodbye to the Great Festival Wine, Egawa went to the mint again. The mint also had a director who received Egawa.
Egawa learned from the director that in order for the mint to mint money, it had to build a vault. The purpose of the vault is twofold, one is to store the gold reserves in the territory, and the other is to regulate the tax rate.
This Jiang Chuan knows that the original game set up was to use the treasury to adjust the tax rate.
Jiang Chuan thought of a question, and after asking the principal for confirmation, it was confirmed. When the system was in the Age of Discovery, almost all of the territory's income was derived from trade.
Now that there is a need to build a treasury, it means that taxes can now also be a source of income.
But since there is a tax, it is necessary to let the people of the territory have money in their hands. Where the money comes from, it must be minted by the mint, which is then issued and exchanged.
Jiang Chuan asked how the currency issuance was calculated, and the principal told Jiang Chuan that the issuance was based on the system's gold reserves and issued on the premise of 1 to 10.
For example, the system's gold reserves are now 270,000 taels, which is equivalent to 2.7 million taels of silver. If one tael of silver is exchanged for ten pieces of silver, it is 27 million pieces of silver, and if it is converted into copper coins, it is 270,000 copper coins.
Hearing this number, Jiang Chuan was also taken aback. He also knows a little about financial knowledge, but he also knows that the currency issued by any country needs to be based on gold reserves, which is commonly known as using gold to press the bottom of the box.
After figuring this out, Egawa left the mint, and he felt that now was not the time to issue a unified currency, so it was not too late to carry out this matter in the future.
Since the issue of currency has been postponed, it is naturally unnecessary for the money bank to do so for the time being.
There are no shipyards now, because there is no sea in the territory of the system, it is all land. If you want to build a shipyard, you must build it in the real space outside, and you must choose a good port by the sea to build it.
In the end, all that was left was the Imperial Doctor's Department and the Gun Foundry.
After asking Xiao Buyi, the Imperial Medical Office happened to be nearby, so he went directly to the Imperial Medical Department.
After entering the Imperial Doctor's Office, it was a white-haired Imperial Physician who received Jiang Chuan.
Taiyi Ling is equivalent to the director of the Chinese Medicine Hospital, and he took Jiang Chuan around inside, and there was no one else except Taiyi Ling and two apprentice miscellaneous servants.
After asking the imperial doctor's order, Jiang Chuan knew that he still wanted to recruit the imperial doctor, and like the Hanlin Academy, he had to explain the needs and then spend money.
It doesn't cost prestige to recruit the Imperial Doctor, and the price is really not low.
There are three levels of imperial physicians, ordinary imperial physicians, excellent imperial physicians, and senior imperial physicians. One level higher is Li Shizhen, a famous doctor who has been passed down through the ages, this level needs to depend on luck, and it needs enough prestige to be able to recruit.
According to the description of the Taiyi Order, the level of medical skills of Chinese medicine is directly proportional to age. The older you are, the more experience you have. Therefore, ordinary Taiyi is a middle-aged person in his thirties, and an excellent Taiyi is a middle-aged and elderly person with lace hair around 50 years old. And the senior doctor is an old man with gray hair.
As for famous doctors, they are not within this limit. The so-called famous doctor does not rely on experience alone, but also depends on talent. Therefore, a famous doctor is not necessarily gray-haired, but may also be a middle-aged person in the prime of life.
An ordinary imperial physician costs five hundred gold coins, and an excellent imperial physician costs one thousand gold coins. A senior imperial physician needs two thousand gold coins.
And a famous doctor needs 10,000 gold coins and 10,000 reputation points, and he may not be able to recruit them.
Jiang Chuan thought about it, doctors are more expensive than fine, no matter how powerful a doctor is, he can't treat all the patients in the world. No matter how good a big hospital is, the people also need a small clinic.
Therefore, he recruited ten ordinary imperial physicians, two excellent imperial physicians, and one senior imperial physician, spending a total of nine thousand gold coins.
With these people, he would be able to set up a sizable medical department.
Like those scholars of the Hanlin Academy, these imperial doctors will also come to report to them within three days.
After leaving the Imperial Doctor's Office, Jiang Chuan's last stop was originally to go to the gun foundry. But suddenly on a whim, I wanted to go to the barracks to see if anything had changed.
The barracks were set up outside the city, and after Jiang Chuan took Xiao Buyi and his party to the barracks on horseback, the barracks looked empty except for a small number of sentries equipped with the system.
Because all the soldiers trained in the barracks are out of time and space.
All living beings in this time and space can only be teleported in one direction, irreversible. Only the lord of Egawa can switch souls back and forth.
There is also a big tent of the Chinese army in the barracks, and after Jiang Chuan entered, he found that there was a huge weapon rack directly north of the big tent, on which many long swords were inserted, and each long sword was sheathed, and the scabbard was engraved with words.
Jiang Chuan looked closely, and those scabbards were engraved with knights, swordsmen, archers, crossbowmen, hammer soldiers, halberd soldiers, spearmen, and militiamen.
Jiang Chuan understood that every sword here represented a class of troops that could be trained in the military camp. These are all existing classes.
Hey? There was also a sword in the back, and this sword felt faintly glowing in the scabbard compared to other swords, as if it wanted to attract Jiang Chuan's attention.
Jiang Chuan opened his eyes and looked carefully, and found that there were five words written on the scabbard, and after a closer look, it was: "Fusilier musketeer".
