Chapter 0153: It's All Up to You
The bus and carriage business of Rongguo Mansion suddenly reversed from a bottomless pit of filling money to a golden rooster that made money, which made those families who were waiting to see the jokes deeply disappointed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
In this kind of envy, jealousy and hatred, the vast majority of these families have received the emperor's military training decree.
At this moment, they were no longer interested in caring about the affairs of Jiafu and began to face their own problems.
For the vast majority of families who have received the decree, this decree is a problem. And it's a big problem.
Now they find themselves in a situation similar to that of Jiafu before. They are also facing a big hole in filling the money.
This big pit is the government soldiers.
Happy families are all alike, while unhappy families have their own misfortunes.
The saying is reversed, the more true.
Unfortunate families are all similar, and happy families are happy in their own way.
These families are all facing similar misfortunes: lack of people and lack of money.
The shortage of personnel is a lack of talent, and the second is a shortage of soldiers.
If you lack money, you will lack everything. Without money, nothing is empty talk.
Among the four major families, the Rongguo Mansion and the Ning Guofu of Jia Mansion were each assigned 300 government soldiers. The Wang family was apportioned 300 people. The Xue family did not apportion tasks, which was the easiest. Because the historian is a waiter and his family background is declining, he takes care of them and only appoints 100 posts.
However, even these 100 people are also an unbearable burden for historians.
The descendants of the Shi family have long been reduced to a minimum, just to maintain a faΓ§ade. Even the needlework in their own house was done by the heroines themselves. Where is the money left to raise soldiers?
In desperation, Shi Ding and Shi Nai came to Jiafu to borrow money from their aunt Jia's mother.
Even for large families, raising soldiers is actually a bottomless pit. A young and strong laborer who is not engaged in production, but has to train in the army without production is a huge burden for everyone.
Jia Mu naturally understands this truth.
Although Jiafu still has some family funds, it is also difficult to come up with a large amount of money at once. The other businesses don't make much money, and although the silk business and the bus and carriage business make money, they have just opened and have limited income.
In addition, if such a large amount of money is lent, will the historian be able to repay it in the future? How did Jia's mother explain to the people of the Jia family?
These are all questions.
Jia Mu was embarrassed for a while, so she was not embarrassed. Not only was it not embarrassing, but it suddenly became easier.
Because the mandarin duck gave her an idea.
So he smiled and told his two nephews, you go back, this matter is on me.
Seeing that his aunt agreed, Shi Ding and Shi Nairu listened to Lunyin and went back happily.
Mother Jia took care of this matter, and everyone in the house felt strange. What can the old lady do, such a big thing, so easily agree?
Jia Mu did take care of this matter, but she subcontracted it out casually. To whom did you subcontract it? Naturally, it was subcontracted to Brother Min.
It turned out that when Jia's mother had nothing to do, the mandarin duck lay on her ear and told her a word.
This saying has recently been circulated among the subordinates in the house, called "If you are in trouble, find the fourth master." β
Jia's mother encountered a dilemma, so she looked for Jia Min.
Jia's mother said that she would do it, and immediately sent Baoyu's chief to follow Li Gui to Yeduju, saying that the ancestor wanted to discuss with him about raising funds for military training, and asked Jia Min to go back to the house to see her immediately.
Jia Min was also working on the military budget, and he was very happy to hear that the ancestor was going to discuss money with him. thought it was a matter of discussing how much money to give him, so he hurriedly came back with Li Gui.
waited until he heard what the old lady said about the Shi family, and then he was dumbfounded.
"What the old ancestor said isn't true, right? There is no money, and there is no one, so what shall I give him a hundred men's share? β
"Others naturally can't do it, but Brother Min is an exception. It doesn't cost a few dollars, they have that family background, you know, if they find me, can I ignore them? β
Can't afford to spend a lot of money?
Food, clothing, shelter, salary, weapons, war horses, horse materials, grooms, men, ......, plus a piece, even according to the minimum standard, a person has at least more than 100 taels of silver a year.
It is said that when the cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold. Do you know what that means?
It's not that as soon as the cannon goes off, you can get ten thousand taels of gold. But as soon as the cannon goes off, it will cost ten thousand taels of gold.
"Since the ancestor agreed, this matter has to be done. But where does the money come from? How much money can the government give? β
"Where is there any money in the house? You are in the group of three, aren't you in charge of the big things in the house, whether you have money or not, you still don't know? β
"Then how much do the six hundred people from our two provinces pay?"
"Over there in Dongfu, I told them, tell them to pay 5,000 taels a year, our family, you have the final say, you can pay as much as you want, as long as you don't delay the expenses in the house, everything is up to you. Besides, if others can make money difficult, can you still make money difficult? β
600 people, at least 60,000 taels a year, 300 people in Dongfu, you tell them to give 5,000 taels? Where did the remaining fifty-five thousand taels come from?
Now you keep saying that I'm in charge, and I can spend as much as I want? What kind of flowers do I take, there are less than 10,000 taels of silver left in the treasury, and the whole family is still waiting to eat and drink, where is the remaining money?
Can't I be stumped with money? My money is blowing in the wind, huh? Which tael of silver, it's not my hard-earned money that I racked my brains for.
"Yes, Brother Min, you will make money, that is obvious to all. In the future, there will be money in this house, although it is up to you to decide, you don't need to tell me. β
This time, Mrs. Wang looked very kind, and seemed to be really a bit of a mother.
"Yes, Fourth Brother Min, everything is up to you, what you need your sister-in-law to do, just squeak, there is nothing to do. If there is any major event in the future, my sister-in-law will discuss it with you in advance. β
Tema's, who said these scum teammates are stupid, the stupidest person is me. Because I didn't make a budget last time, I didn't talk about the money, which made them take advantage of the loophole.
In the past, I was rushing to manage money, but this time it's good, I know that this money management is a tricky errand, and I just rushed to ignore it, and I pushed it all on.
If I have money, it's okay, but the key is that I don't have money, and I have to earn money now.
Okay, good, count you ruthless. I owe you all in my last life, so I crossed over to pay the debt.
This crossing is really unsuccessful, too unsuccessful!
And you Wang Xifeng, the old lady and the lady withdraw, you came up to assist again. Okay, didn't you say that I need you to do whatever I need you to do, just squeak, no matter what, you have nothing to do, when you have the opportunity, Lao Tzu will take you down, I see if you should or shouldn't you at that time?
Seeing Jia Min go out in a hurry, Mandarin Duck finally calmed down a little.
"Ancestor, don't say it's my idea. If the fourth master of Min knows, I'm afraid he will kill me. β
"It's okay, Brother Min is generous, even if he knows, he won't be surprised. Of course, I'm not going to say it. β
After Jia Mu finished speaking, she seemed to be unsatisfied, and then added.
"Brother Min gave all the shares to the girls, which shows that he takes good care of the girls, which is very similar to Baoyu. He is kind to his subordinates, what are you afraid of? β
Although the mandarin duck felt that what the ancestor said was reasonable, he still disagreed.
Fourth Master Min is also good to the girls, but his good is not the same as that of Second Master Bao.
The fourth master is good to the girls, it is really good for the girls. Second Master Bao is good to the girls, and that is for his own good.
The difference is huge.
A soldier's budget of one hundred taels of silver a year is actually not high. This is still calculated at the level of only being equipped with cold weapons.
Today, in the army of the Daedok dynasty, part of the artillery and muskets are already equipped. It's just that the equipment is not so popular, and the level of firearms is not too high.
According to Jia Min's plan, he was going to equip his soldiers with firearms, at least some of them.
If this is the case, the military expenditure will be even higher, and two hundred taels of silver a year for one person is considered less.
Jia Min is clear about the situation of the Shi family, they really can't afford to raise a government soldier. It is also understandable to find Jia Mu.
Although this matter increased the burden on Jia Min, he quickly figured it out. Not only did I figure it out, but from another point of view, I saw this matter as a good thing.
The post of 100 people of the historian was given to him, and in the future, the historian will only be in the name of the top, and he will be able to report to the emperor when the time comes.
These 100 people are trained here by him, and he spends money to raise them, and in the future, they will basically belong to him, and in fact, they will become part of his army.
The tradition of an army is closely related to the style of its founder. This army of government soldiers was created by Jia Min, and his loyalty to him in the future will definitely be very high. From this point of view, it makes a lot of sense for Jia Min.
The example of the historian is actually of universal significance.
Many of today's families, although they are still known as families, have various titles. In fact, many have declined.
In the final analysis, it still depends on the money. With money, you can recruit people, and you can provide the soldiers with living support, proper equipment, and adequate training.
In fact, although the war is fought on the battlefield, however, in many cases, the victory or defeat is decided in the rear.
Fighting a war is essentially about money and economic strength. Whoever has strong economic strength will be able to train high-quality soldiers, equip them with advanced weapons, and provide stronger logistical supplies.
In many cases, this is the key factor in determining the outcome of a war.
From the historian's family, Jia Min thought of Feng Ziying's family again.
I don't know if they have a part this time, but if they do, it would be a good choice to follow the model of the historians to carry out the training tasks of their families.
