Chapter 31: Only recruit children from good families
"This recruitment, we have to select soldiers according to the standards of the Qi family's army, as long as the son of a good family can bear hardships and stand hard work, even if he is a slender coolie, as long as he is healthy, we will all want it, the number is tentatively set at 1120 wrestlers with an establishment, 1120 auxiliary soldiers without an establishment, and the salary of the auxiliary soldiers is 24 taels per month."
"Do as you say."
Suddenly, a brocade-clothed guard came in to report, "My lord, Yang Jialong, the governor of Tongzhou, wants to see you?" ”
This Tongzhou Zhizhou actually came to the door, although Yang Tingjian was the Jinyi Wei Zhenfu, but Yang Tingjian did not have any emperor's edict to do, not to mention that it was an extremely sensitive recruitment, so it was better not to offend these magistrates.
"Let him in!"
Yang Jialong has already inquired clearly, the big man of Jinyi Wei who came to Tongzhou is Yang Tingjian, the town of Nanzhen Fusi, and it is said that each other was still their own family five hundred years ago! Since it was Nanzhen Fusi who came, it means that he did not come to investigate his Yang Jialong's drifting, which made Yang Jialong feel a lot more relieved.
After Yang Jialong got the communication, he hurriedly followed the Jinyiwei who led the way into the living room where Yang Tingjian was, Yang Jialong is also a veteran of officialdom, the rules of officialdom are very familiar, although all the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty hate Jinyiwei, but these local officials see Jinyiwei, just like a mouse sees a cat, it is impossible to be disrespectful, and it is the court executives who dare to blow up in front of Jinyiwei, and it is not their turn to be local officials.
"Yang Jialong, the governor of Tongzhou, meet the adult, the lower official does not know that the adult is coming to the local area, and he has not welcomed him from afar, which is really a dereliction of duty of the lower official, and please forgive me."
Yang Jialong, as a sixth-grade civil official of the imperial court, of course, could not kneel down to Yang Tingjian, the military attache of the four-rank brocade guard, but as soon as Yang Jialong entered the door, he immediately nodded and bowed, looking very respectful and well-behaved.
"Hehe, Lord Yang doesn't have to be like this, and the official has no other business, just to come to Tongzhou to recruit some brocade guards and enrich the Fusi Yamen in Xiannan Town, I never thought that it would alarm Lord Yang, since Lord Yang is here, please stay and have a few drinks."
Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian hurriedly retired and went to handle the errand they received, and Yang Tingjian asked people to hurriedly call the post station to prepare a meal.
Yang Tingjian and Yang Jialong talked while eating and drinking, and the relationship between the two got along very well, when Yang Jialong learned that Yang Tingjian was still his own family, and he was also a famous family, he kept setting almost, Yang Jialong, who was already in his thirties, wanted to recognize Yang Tingjian as a distant uncle, according to Yang Jialong, Yang Tingjian's character was one level higher than him.
This meal of wine has an extra nephew in his thirties, which really makes Yang Tingjian cry and laugh, but it's good, at least Yang Tingjian will not be impeached by the magistrate in an exaggerated manner on the issue of recruiting troops and horses in Tongzhou.
Now Yang Tingjian has only crossed over to the Ming Dynasty, which is the most solid step taken by Yang Tingjian, but Yang Tingjian at this time is also the most vulnerable, because they have no power of their own at all. Those scholars couldn't help much.
"Lord Yang, this time I came to Tongzhou to recruit troops, and I have to talk about it."
Yang Jialong's face was red and his neck was thick,
"Uncle Tingjian, you can see the outside, there are not many others in Tongzhou, there are many children of good families who come to Tongzhou to beg for a living, this recruiting little nephew can't help much, but this horse purchase, the little nephew will definitely find thousands of good horses for Uncle Tingjian."
Yang Tingjian still doesn't adapt, a middle-aged man who has only known him for less than an hour calls himself an uncle, but what can Yang Tingjian do, fortunately, Yang Jialong is not very bad, but in the big dye vat of Daming officialdom, he can't get out of the mud without staining.
When Yang Jialong said goodbye, Yang Tingjian immediately took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels of silver and handed it to Yang Jialong:
"Jialong, when we met for the first time, my uncle didn't bring any meeting gifts, so this bit of silver should be used as my uncle's meeting gift!"
"Uncle! This is unacceptable, unacceptable. ”
Where did Yang Jialong dare to accept Yang Tingjian's silver, and hurriedly refused. Now where does Yang Tingjian care about this bit of silver, anyway, he snatched it from the thieves, and now he has just taken the first step, it is better not to be noticed and impeached by the civil official group, Emperor Chongzhen said very clearly, if something happens, all the responsibility is borne by him Yang Tingjian alone, and Emperor Chongzhen will definitely not bear any responsibility for him.
"Take it! You don't have a good time as an official in this place, and besides, this is a meeting gift from your uncle. ”
In the end, Yang Tingjian personally sent Yang Jialong out of the inn, which made Yang Jialong feel his own unique face, he secretly thought, this trip, it was really a good harvest, and it was easy to find a backer, if you work up and down in the future, it will not be difficult to be the prefect.
This time, Uncle Tingjian wants to buy war horses, and he must spare no effort to do it, even if there are not enough horses in Tongzhou, he must use his connections to let those horse merchants transport more horses to Tongzhou.
……
In the afternoon of the same day, all wharves in Tongzhou posted notices for Jinyiwei to recruit wrestlers, and there was a reader next to the notice who was tirelessly interpreting the notice:
"I said Xiucaigong, the annual salary of the brocade guard is really thirty-six taels? And there is no deduction. ”
"That's still fake, Jinyiwei is the emperor's pro-army, and the one who dares to deduct Jinyiwei's salary."
"Do they want these porters?"
"It's recruiting people like you! You see that the notice is clearly written, as long as you are a child of a good family! ”
"Da Niu, let's go and be a brocade guard! We work hard every day at the dock to earn dozens of dollars, and it is less than one or two in a month, and my mother has not eaten for a long time. ”
"Ergou, our skinny appearance, will Jinyiwei want it?"
"Big Niu, we are all working hard every day, we eat poorly, and we have lost a little weight, but our strength is not small, let's try it! Anyway, there is no registration fee. ”
"Okay, let's go home and say hello to my parents first."
As soon as the notice of Jinyiwei recruiting wrestlers came out, Tongzhou City took down the coolies, but they were boiling, especially those young men who worked hard, they were originally hopeless to live, and suddenly there was a ladder to change their fate, how could they not rush to it, it was a must.
The wharf is bitter and wants to try, they all want to be a brocade guard, earn the thirty six taels of silver every Chinese New Year's Eve, which is almost half of the Zhixian Yulu, which is simply a dream good thing for those who are bitter haha! No wonder they're so enthusiastic.
