Chapter 478: Mercenary Regiment and Sheriff
"Don't be too busy thanking you yet, it depends on whether you are willing to do it." Lin Qiao said.
"Look at what you said, the path pointed out by Lord Zhou, how could we not want to do it." Zhang Xianzhong said.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to do a good job." Zou Qun continued.
"It's not easy for others to say, you, as long as you want, there should be no problem." Lin Qiao looked at Zou Qun and said, she was deeply impressed by this person, after the incident at that time, his brother was still worried about the retaliation of the Han Department, and wanted to start a full-scale war with Dalintai, and sent people to contact the two banners on the left and right of Sunit, as well as the Karaqin Horqin and other departments.
"Brother Zhou just came back from Sunit, and he found a salt lake there...," Lin Qiao said.
Zhang Xianzhong and the other three listened with blinked eyes, and they didn't understand what this matter had to do with them, they knew Zhou Chengyun's background, he was born as a salt merchant in southern Jinnan, and found that the salt lake was naturally a great benefit to him, but what can these people do, dry salt?
“... A large number of manpower is required. Lin Qiao continued.
Hearing this, the three of them were used to collecting wool, which was risky but profitable, and they were a little reluctant to let them do this kind of hard work as transporting grain.
But this day is not right, isn't it spring and summer to dry salt?
Lin Qiao looked at the faces of these people, and knew that they wanted to diverge, "Don't worry, I don't want you to dry salt, you people are far from enough, besides, even if you are willing to go, Brother Zhou is still not willing to ask you, the pit is abducted and stolen, who knows if you will steal salt." ”
Zou Qun and the three of them looked embarrassed by Lin Qiao's words, so they could only laugh and keep silent.
"There are a lot of people in Salt Lake, what Brother Zhou and Brother Zhiwen mean is to let you recruit people, listen up, it is to go to the Han Department in the west of our tribe to recruit people, don't go to those places in the east, recruit young people, one person will give you thirty catties of food, and the women and children will also have ten catties each, how about it, now you are interested?"
Zhang Xianzhong's eyes lit up when they heard this, it turned out that they were exchanging people for food, this business had to be done, and it sounded like it was more profitable than exchanging wool.
"Do it, we do it." The three of them didn't discuss, so they nodded in response.
"Remember, you are not allowed to forcibly pull people, you need to be willing, when you get to Dalintai, Brother Zhou will send people to ask one by one, if one person is unwilling, you will be deducted ten points." Lin Qiao warned.
When Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai heard this, they were disappointed, they thought it was a simple matter, and when they arrived at the place, they took a bundle of ropes and brought them back.
Zou Qun didn't think it was too difficult, he already knew a lot about the situation of the Han Department, and he had been in and out frequently in the past two months, and he learned more about the situation, which was really not difficult for him.
"Alright, that's it, we have to go, and we have to inform the other teams." Lin Qiao took the reins on the horse, "Brother Kewang, let's go." ”
"I've wanted to leave for a long time, so I'm just waiting for you to speak, Qiao'er."
When he was about to fight, Lin Qiao suddenly turned his head and said to the three of them, "By the way, you people, Brother Zhiwen also thought of a very nice name for you - mercenary group, each mercenary group can have its own exclusive name, think about it, and you will start registering and changing tokens after tomorrow's meeting." ”
"Also, Brother Kewang will not be called the captain in the future, Brother Zhiwen will call him the sheriff of our Dalintai."
After that, he snorted lightly in his mouth, and together with Sun Kewang, he went with the cavalry.
Looking at the torrent rolling away, Zhang Xianzhong's mouth flipped up and down, "I said, what kind of person is Brother Zhiwen in this Nizi's mouth, and Zhiwen in that kid's mouth." "I don't know who he was talking to.
"I heard that he is also one of the big proprietors of Zhuolu Trading Company, and he came late this year, but last year he went out to explore, it seems that he is waiting for Lord Zhou to come back, so that he can make a big move." It was Zou Qun who answered.
After the two of them reacted, they both snorted coldly and went their separate ways.
At the same time, Zhiwen, who was being discussed, was sitting in Lin Yuan's sweat tent and chatting with Zhou Chengyun.
"Xiao Zhi, if you don't sit in Zhuolu Mountain, why did you run away from outside the Saiwai." Zhou Chengyun blamed.
"Hehe, I can't be idle, the acting king is basically settled, what to do next, Song Xiance will deal with it, and I will not see the effect until next year's summer grain harvest at the earliest, I have nothing to do, just come out and take a walk."
Zhou Chengyun shook his head, not to mention the rest, he also knew that the woolen cloth was not in a hurry to launch for a while, and the sweater was from weaving to sales, up and down Zhuolu Mountain, together with his sales channels in Jiangnan, he was already familiar with the road, so he didn't have to worry about it at all.
As for the autumn grain, the sweet potatoes and potatoes have been planted, just waiting for the harvest of the winter moon, and there is really nothing to worry about.
"Don't say it, Brother Zhou, the few ideas that Zhiwen came here are all good ideas, and they will definitely make these outlaws a lot more restrained in the future, and Dalintai will not be so smoky anymore." Lin Yuan said on the side.
"This kid just has a lot of crooked ideas." Zhou Chengyun said this in his mouth, but he had to admit in his heart that Zhiwen's method of deducting points and punishing was indeed much easier to use than the previous extensive control method.
"Xiao Zhi, how could you come up with the idea of giving these people the title of a mercenary group, and let them choose their own names and establish names." Zhou Chengyun asked.
"We hired them to do things for us, they are a team one by one, and they will inevitably use force when they act, isn't it a mercenary group?" Zhiwen said that the words are uplifting, but in fact, it is just a little bad taste in his heart.
As soon as he arrived at Lintai, Zhiwen was shocked by the earth-shaking changes in this tribe, and the teams that kept going in and out of the sweat court and befriended wool and money and food made him feel extremely familiar.
Originally, he came up with the idea of recruiting people to transport grain and wool back and forth between Zhuolu Mountain and Dalintai, but Zhou Chengyun recruited people to collect wool, but he just expanded the scope of work in his idea.
But right now, these people are taking the money and food of the Zhuolu Trading Company, doing things for the Zhuolu Trading Company, and even working hard, but it reminds Zhiwen of the mercenary group in the fantasy of Europe and America in the later generations, thinking about it carefully, there is really no difference, the Zhuolu Trading Company issued a task, and these people received and received a reward after completing the task.
It's just that the current tasks are still long-term, and there are no restrictions on the tasks, and you can release the kind of one-time tasks in the future, as long as someone receives someone else, it will be gone.
It is this kind of long-term task, which can also increase or decrease the amount of tasks issued according to the demand for wool, which... It's all about the relationship between the mercenaries and the mercenary unions.
