Chapter 4: Business

The climax of the military parade was that the whole army assembled and practiced marching.

The 5,000 men and horses spread out in formation, filling the martial arts arena within a two-mile radius in an instant.

The military order is neat, shouting to kill the sky, swinging a knife and slashing, stabbing with a gun, the sword light and sword shadow shine in the eyes of the audience, and the killing is like a cold wind, and the hair explodes.

The dusty martial arts exercise made the whole city feel the power and killing power condensed by this team.

The most exciting thing is the final performance of the members of the Thousand Luoliangshan Company.

Five hundred targets, under the fire of the members of the company divided into two teams, after a rain of arrows, they instantly scattered and splashed in the air.

That scene seemed to put everyone in the bloody wind of the battlefield and smell the pungent smell of blood.

At the end of the parade, the scene that made the whole city boil was: boxes were carried into the field, and in broad daylight, the silver in front of them was revealed, and there were sacks and sacks, enough food.

This is also Tang Xidong's instruction, on the spot to distribute military salaries and food, he wants everyone to see that his Tang Xidong's army is different from all the armies of the Ming Dynasty, he has enough silver and grain, his army does not deduct food and wages, and he has money to receive food.

When boxes of silver were distributed, and bags of grain were carried on the shoulders of soldiers, the people of the city were boiling.

In the midst of war and chaos, if you have money and food, you can pry people's hearts.

Many young onlookers saw that the intention in their eyes had now turned into firmness.

After the parade, it was announced that all the soldiers would take a two-day vacation, and Tang Xidong wanted these soldiers to tell everyone in Pingyang City about the benefits they had gained in the new army.

After the soldiers gathered the whole team, the weapons were stored, and then they walked out of the martial arts arena in an orderly manner with food and silver coins.

And the vacated martial arts arena instantly rose with two big words: recruitment!

Yes, the reason why Tang Xidong paraded was because of deterrence, showing off, and recruitment.

As soon as the word recruitment was hung high, the officers were sitting in the middle of the arena carrying tables and chairs, and in an instant the martial arts arena was crowded with crowds, and young people scrambled forward, waving their hands and shouting that they wanted to join the new army.

Tang Xidong got up and looked at the scene where all the goals had been achieved.

He took the lead and left, and the officials, squires and rich people behind him naturally had someone arrange.

Today, he will hold another banquet at the prefect's yamen.

At noon, the hall of the prefect's yamen was still crowded.

The Ming Dynasty did not repair the official office, but it was often dilapidated and old from the outside, and it was another world in the backyard.

Today's banquet, Tang Xidong is not going to hold a Hongmen banquet, but a real banquet.

First, after the parade, he was in a good mood, and second, he had a purpose.

After recruiting, he also needs to buy horses.

Now that the industrial layout is ready, he will accept the business of Binh Duong City in its entirety.

The banquet is a wedding banquet, but unfortunately everyone present except Tang Xidong has no one to drink and have fun with peace of mind.

"Today's military parade, raise the prestige of my soldiers, there can be these 5,000 available men, everyone here has made great efforts, here, Tang Mou thanks everyone." Tang Xidong raised his glass to invite, and more than 100 people hurriedly held the glass, but only he knew what this wine tasted like.

After drinking a glass of wine, Tang Xidong looked at everyone, and then smiled: "What Tang did before was really a last resort, everyone has struggled for many years, and some people have a family business by accumulating from generation to generation, and now they have been fully collected by Tang, I know that you are afraid that you are always looking forward to Tang's life in Huangquan." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was instantly frightened.

"You don't have to deny it, how can you not be scolded a few times when you occupy someone's property? Tang will not give you a sword with a few words of gossip. ”

"If the family property is gone, you can earn it again, if you talk about doing business, no one has ever done Jin businessmen, everyone is a business giant, accounting for everyone's money and family business, Tang is also uneasy, so today's banquet is to compensate everyone."

"Get on the stuff." Tang Xidong waved his hand, and several company members carried a few things from outside the door.

Lifting the red cloth on the first item, Tang Xidong pointed to the neatly arranged small squares and picked up a piece: "This thing, called soap, is an invention of my Luoliangshan, its use is actually just to wash clothes, but don't underestimate this little gadget, today's banquet is over, one person takes a piece back and uses it for his own use, you can understand its benefits." ”

Putting it down casually, he picked up a small red piece again: "This one, called soap, is used to clean our bodies, and after the same ends, one person will take a piece back and experience it for himself." ”

Then he took a small porcelain bottle, shook it in his hand, and then gently pressed the small wooden lid on the door, a burst of incense mist sprayed out, and the hall was full of incense in an instant, looking at one by one, Tang Xidong showed a smile at the corner of his mouth: "This third thing is called perfume, sprayed on the body, it can ensure that the whole body can be fragrant all day long, and there is not much inventory, I will not distribute it to everyone to try, these bottles can be tried by each other." ”

Soap, soap, and the lowest perfume are the simplest things, and Tang Xidong set up the workshop a long time ago and successfully made these three things.

Then the fourth piece is a box, open the box is a box of black ash powder, like stone powder: "This one, say its name, I believe everyone has heard of it, this is the cement I invented in Luoliang Mountain, the official road outside the city everyone walks on the mountain every month, the benefits of this cement don't need me to do more introduction, right?" ”

As soon as the cement came out, sure enough, one by one, the businessmen, their eyes lit up, and they leaned over to watch.

"These four things are where everyone's financial resources are, and they are also Tang's compensation to everyone. As long as there are strange goods, there will be huge profits, I believe that as long as there are these things, it will not be long before everyone will make a lot of money again. ”

"The goods, provided by Tang, how much you want, but you can earn twenty-eight points of silver, don't think Tang is stingy, things are unique, and there will be more strange goods in the future will be provided from time to time, I believe everyone will understand the importance of the benefits, the silver is divided into twenty-eight, but if you can get me a war horse, then according to the benefits of thirty-seven."

"Things are provided for everyone, and the rest is up to everyone. When it comes to the ugly words, whoever does a good job and abides by the rules will be the first to have business in the future, and if anyone is uneasy and kind, and makes me annoyed, then there will be no business at all. ”

Soap, soap, perfume have no technology to speak of, the benefits can be large or small, and unlike cement, it has a certain strategic position.

And cement, Tang Xidong is only the part of the low grade sold to the outside world, and the real high grade is still of great use to him, and how can he provide others with high-grade cement to build a strong city wall?

In case the improvement really forms a general trend in the future, it will be to shoot yourself in the foot.

Tang Xidong will not send people to follow every caravan, but he will send people to the place where the goods are sold from time to time to investigate, and the merchant does not not take shortcuts and make clever names, as long as it is not too much, he Tang Xidong can accept it.
