Section 95: Crowdfunding
With Tang Tian's support, the problem of horses is not difficult to solve, and the next thing is manpower and funds, how to recruit enough 500 strong men? And how to prepare for military funding?
After the establishment of the government military system, it was stipulated that every three years to fill the vacancies, and the period of service was 21 to 59 years old. During the www.biquge.info service, the soldiers themselves were exempted from military service, but they had to bring their own military supplies, clothing, light weapons (bows and arrows, horizontal knives) and food on the way to the service. For each fire (one fire and ten people), there must be a total of six horses (or donkeys) for transportation, the so-called "six pack horses". Bringing their own equipment was a heavy burden for the peasants, but it was not a problem at all for those who could afford to draw troops from Luoyang.
He invited Yang Cheng and Cheng Boxi to the two brothers, and then posted to the wealthy families he knew in Luoyang, such as Boss Huang, Gao Balang, the three super pharmaceutical merchants Youhu Shang Mo Moye, businessmen Wang Yanliang, Fang Shuozhi, the big slave owner Minimi and the big businessman Kang Caien, who he knew, wanted to do a crowdfunding.
As a result, all the people who posted the post came, so free? I can afford to be a kid, and I'm flattered.
Among the merchants, Huang Boss Gao Balang has a close relationship with Feng Xiaobao, and there is no problem supporting him, while the big slave owner Minimi and the Lite giant merchant Kang Caien are just nodding friends, not thinking that they have a deep friendship, but they didn't expect to come as soon as they posted it.
But I don't know that the success of the big boss is not a fluke, and it is a skill that must be mastered with eyes. . . This kid started from scratch, although the business is small, there is no shortage of money to spend, his kung fu has grown from scratch, his fame has begun, and even his super friendship relationship with the princess has been picked up, which is admirable!
Not everyone can get the Tang princess!
At present, although it is said that Shilang is one, it can't be lower, but the queen personally ordered it, how many of them were given by the queen?
Now Feng Xiaobao is low, and the big businessmen are here, and it is better to give him charcoal in the snow, than to add icing on the cake in the future.
At that time, the snow was fluttering, and the big bosses arrived at the meeting site one after another... Yunfeng Restaurant, that is the property of Princess Qianjin.
Yunfeng Restaurant has three floors, the first floor is for individual guests, the second floor is a private seat, and the third floor is a meeting room for higher cards, where everyone gathers to discuss things.
Feng Xiaobao was waiting for customers at the stairs on the third floor, and he was not surprised to see the big bosses coming, they had already reported that they were coming.
Most of the people invited were acquaintances of Feng Xiaobao, and Yang Cheng offered Cheng Boxi two or three kittens and dogs, and they were reduced to supporting roles.
The foundation of the Yang family is weak, so please don't come to help... This is also the reason why Yang Chengxian's father Yang Deqing is very good to Feng Xiaobao, he has to increase his bargaining chips.
As for Cheng Boxi, he is a concubine and can't compete for many resources.
Just kidding, the dispute between the main branch has been given to you, what should I do with the main branch?
……
In the spacious hall of Yunfeng Restaurant, everyone sat together, in addition to Feng Xiaobao and the three of them, plus the bosses, there were also the chief officials of the princess's mansion, the head of the Golden Sword King (Hexi County Marquis), etc.
Feng Xiaobao bowed his hand to everyone: "Welcome everyone!" Thank you for your support and support! ”
People are saying yes, yes!
"Yang Chengxian and Cheng Boxi and I intend to respond to the will of the imperial court, recruit strong men, and go to the front line to conquer Tibet."
"At present, I have received an order from the Imperial Military Department, allowing me to form three regiments of government soldiers (one regiment of 200 people), and the government is approving the documents!" Immediately, an arhat of Feng Xiaobao stepped forward to show the approval document, stamped with the big seal of the government, which is undoubtedly accurate.
"This is Tang Shiniang of the Tang family in Liangzhou! On behalf of the Tang family, she sponsored my three regiments of people with 800 Hexi horses! Feng Xiaobao asked Tang Tian to say.
As soon as these words came out, there was a buzz in the crowd.
Everyone who comes knows a lot of things, compared with the grassland horse, the Hexi horse is taller, more impulsive, and more load-bearing, and its weakness is that it is difficult to raise, and the pressure on logistics is great.
Eight hundred Hexi horses, a big deal!
If you count as a hundred guan, it is worth 80,000 guan! (There are twenty-five to fifty ordinary steppe horses, and there are cheaper ones, but they are not enough for military formations)
"There are a lot of people who know me, and I don't talk nonsense!" Tang Tian stood up and said bluntly: "On behalf of the Tang family, I sponsor Feng Dalang's eight hundred Hexi horses!" ”
She showed off the voucher for the donation of horses.
Take the lead! The chips of 800 Hexi horses were dropped, and everyone was enthusiastic, and they couldn't let a girl get rid of a group of gentlemen.
"Okay, those who have money will pay, and those who have people will pay people, please!" Feng Xiaobao shouted.
Boss Huang has the closest relationship with Feng Xiaobao, and first stood up and said: "Everyone, Tang Shiyi Niang first gave everyone an example, how can we wait to be behind, I will donate 10,000 yuan!" ”
10,000!
Don't look at Tang Tian's eight hundred horses, but they are real things, and Boss Huang's 10,000 yuan is real money, and it is by no means a small amount.
Gao Hachiro immediately followed up and said: "I will also donate 10,000 yuan!" ”
The three big pharmacists are Hu Shang Mo Moye, businessman Wang Yanliang, and Fang Shuozhi, who also generously donated 10,000 yuan each!
The big slave owner Minimi and the big merchant Kang Caien, who knew each other, glanced at each other and smiled at each other, Kang Caien stood up and said, "The two of us are 15,000 yuan each!" ”
As soon as the words came out, everyone looked sideways, and they didn't have a very close relationship with Feng Xiaobao, but they didn't expect it to be so powerful!
The two big Hu businessmen are relaxed, they know far more inside stories than many people, such as Kang Caien, who knows how Feng Xiaobao came to be "Jiang Shilang"!
Xiaobao opened up the relationship with the queen, and even the majestic Pei family was deflated under his hands, such a fierce man or a teenager is like this, and he is willing to spend his blood to support it.
The Lits are good at making money, but they claim they're better at getting along!
If you look at the potential stocks, smash them with a lot of money, and smash him dizzy, it will be in vain.
With 80,000 yuan as a foundation, and then the "friends" of the Yang family, the Cheng family, and Feng Xiaobao's neighbors, such as an old man named "Cao Sanlang", who has three shops for rent in Nanshi, usually not inconspicuous, and ordinary clothes, but donated 3,000 yuan! The proviso condition is to bring his grandson Cao Ba to birth.
The number of donations continued to rise, until it reached 101,000 and stopped.
This is a lot of money, if it weren't for Luoyang, it would be able to mobilize such a huge amount of resources!
With the money, the next step is manpower recruitment.
Feng Xiaobao himself found fifty people, who were his disciples, from the Luoyang area, and many people's families had intersections with Feng Xiaobao, such as Cao Ba and Zong Jiu. (The son of the old neighbor of Lao Junguan)
Princess Qianjin's Mansion gave Feng Xiaobao another hundred strong men!
Her 100 strong men are incredible, and 80 of them are all strong people, not like ordinary government soldiers at all!
When dispatching them, seeing them skillfully mounted their horses, wielding their weapons with ease and pleasure, the people who knew the goods secretly muttered: "This is a long-time warrior!" ”
They are a group of people with the highest quality among all the people, especially their leader Fan Wuxian, with a national face, fierce eyes, a bloody aura, fierce and sharp, and extremely brave, he is definitely a general-level figure in the army, and he actually threw himself into a small team like Feng Xiaobao?
Where did Feng Xiaobao get such a treasure?!
