According to Mr. Pang, since the state government collects everyone's taxes. That's to serve everyone. In the future, if there are any difficulties and troubles, everyone. You can come to the state government for help, and think of the recent situation in the countryside. The faces of the big families immediately became eager. But then. But Mr. Pang spread his hands:
"Only. You must know that. We don't have many people. In case several families call for help at the same time. Inevitably, there will be a first-come-first-come......"
Speaking of which. The big families have already understood. Sure enough, Mr. Pang went on to say:
"So I believe everyone can understand that it is the most important to pay taxes. Give us the customers who help the most. We're definitely going to prioritize protection. Of course, this is by no means to say that we don't care about paying less taxes. As long as you pay your taxes. Even if it's just a penny. The government has an obligation to protect you! Just come and ask for help. We are definitely available. You can rest assured of this......"
Although Mr. Pang later rambled on a lot of nonsense such as treating everyone equally. But in the hearts of the big households. In fact, such a thing as a popular uprising has long been planned. If it's just one or two small fireheads. They can be pacified by their own caretakers. If it is really necessary for the state government to send troops to pacify it. That must be a big deal.
At that time, a large group of people must have asked for help at the same time. So Shorthair says everything that is demanding. On-call and the like are all fake. Only the first sentence is very real, "first come, first come".
For short hair, use the amount of tax to divide three, six, nine and so on. The big ones weren't surprised. Replaced themselves. Wouldn't they also take care of tenants who pay a lot of food? These shorthairs can be so straightforward. It's quite straightforward.
There was a bold rich man who got lost his form for a moment. He even asked why he didn't take the opportunity to expand his troops? In fact, this is also a common problem that the big players present are thinking about. It's just that others don't dare to ask, and since you have rebelled, something has happened. He also captured the capital city. There is money and food in hand. Then don't you hurry up and recruit troops? Are you really not afraid that the imperial army will come to encircle and suppress?
The big leader just laughed at this. Invite all guests to the barracks to see the drills...... Now the chengguan team over there is finally looking like it. When there is no task. Usually half of the people maintain their daily training. The other half went out on duty. Rotate daily.
The team members were wrapped in rattan armor. Including the face is completely covered. Whether they turned out to be old or young. It doesn't matter if it's beautiful or ugly. Because individual differences are completely eliminated. It looks like a simple fighter jet. This kind of coldness is strict. The sight with a bit of mechanical aesthetics is, of course, the most inspiring people's fear of the military. Not to mention. The weapons in the hands of these trainees are no longer round-headed wooden clubs. And all of them have been replaced by shiny real guys!
Osayaan's original concept of using the chengguan team as an internal riot police did not last long. The responsibilities assumed by the chengguan team soon exceeded Lao Ao's original estimate. In many cases. The chengguan team members were being used as an army, and their last attack on Wangjiazhuang was an example.
The opponent uses sharp weapons such as broadswords, spears, bows and arrows. There may even be some rudimentary muskets and earth cannons. It would be ridiculous to insist on using a round-tipped wooden stick here. Oshayan is also not a rigid person. Adjust your deployment now. The chengguan team was equipped with the standard weapons of the Ming army.
The original round-headed wooden stick is still in use. But it's only used when patrolling the city. Routine training was also done with wooden sticks. But then they found out that the people they were very fond of watching the chengguan team train. Every day, there will be a large number of bored people outside the school yard to act as onlookers. I don't know where these guys have so much spare time.
Originally, Wang Xinzhi wanted to drive people out directly. However, Pang Yu taught him another roundabout way to charge! Each person receives one copper per day for tea. Collecting money is not the goal. Let those bored people consciously and voluntarily go away.
Really. Once you are told that onlookers will also be charged. There weren't many idlers who came to see the excitement. But now Wang Fei is excited about them. The queue is changed every day. And he put all the equipment on his body. Of course, the weapons are all replaced by real guys...... Just to attract more visitors.
Up to now, the drill of the urban management brigade has become a scene in Qiongzhou Mansion. If people in the city have relatives and friends from the countryside to come to the door. I often take them to the small school field on the edge of Luocheng. It's like Pang Yu used to take his friends to visit the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum...... Anyway, a copper ticket is not expensive. Most people can afford it.
So this dismissal also brought the big families to see the excitement. And Pang Yu gave a general introduction to the price of these equipment: don't look at it just rattan armor. It does not use metal and can be made by hand. But the price is still high. A set of armor. Even the cost of materials and manual work is still about 20 times. The purchase price is 25 percent. Plus the weapons that were issued to the soldiers. Clothing. Equipment. and the cost of training, etc......
"We recruit one soldier at a time. and it will cost fifty or sixty taels of silver to arm him. In the future, there will be a fixed monthly salary and food expenses...... And that's just the auxiliaries. The specifications of the field army were far more expensive than the muskets they used. ”
Pang Yu pointed to the back. Several regular guards stood solemnly with rifles on their backs. Although the Qionghai rifle was made by the industrial group itself. All materials and man-hours are provided free of charge. But it is also impossible not to calculate the cost of the previous industrial group roughly calculated: if the cost of R&D tests. machine qì loss. and the scrap generated in the production process are all added to the cost. And then count the sheathed bayonet that came standard with each gun at the factory. Leather bullet pouch. and sixty rounds of ammunition inside. The cost of a Qionghai rifle is about 100 taels of silver.
In the future, it will be mass-produced. The amortized cost may be lower. But the final price must be more than sixty taels of silver. Even at the end of the Ming Dynasty, when silver was overflowing. That's a pretty high number this year. The average cost of a house in the city is about thirteen taels of silver; The average selling price of an acre of ordinary land in rural areas is less than two taels.
If you count the artillery. Hand grenade. Thunder ...... To fight a war is to fight money. This sentence is really a wise saying.
Although I don't fully understand the purpose of the equipment introduced by the other party. But the big families quickly understood the meaning of Mr. Pang's words, and they wanted to recruit troops on a large scale. But you have to be able to recruit it. Look at each other. The big ones were very smart and immediately kept silent.
The reckless man who was the first to ask was still secretly glad in his heart: these short hairs were polite. did not take the opportunity to ask him to come up with money to expand the army. If only Shorthair had really opened this mouth. He probably only had the luxury of going home and hanging himself. Even the auxiliary army equipment far exceeded the troops of the regular army of the Ming Dynasty. What can ordinary people raise? I'm afraid that even with the power of Qiongzhou, I can't raise much.
However, after seeing the armament of the Shorthair Army. The confidence of the big families in them has increased a lot. As Mr. Pang said earlier: as long as they have needs. The rhetoric that you can help here also seems a bit credible? …… Many people's eyes turned back to the plaques that were previously only considered chicken ribs. The mind began to move.
The Chinese people have always been pragmatic. If these plaques were just an honor. They don't care about the difference in the inscription. But now. This thing is still a talisman...... And the effect of this amulet is still big and small? That's different!
I heard from Mr. Pang. There is a fixed standard for the title of "model taxpayer". As long as the amount is reached, it can be awarded later. Many people immediately forgot about their previous fear of being slaughtered again. Instead, he quietly made a small calculation: is it necessary to have a little more blood. Buy such a plaque to go back? In case of trouble in the future. There's a hope, isn't it? Even if you don't need it. The short-haired soldiers are so strong. It seems that it is unlikely that the Ming court will want to recover the lost. It doesn't hurt to spend a little more money to get closer to them.
As for the so-called pacesetters who were already close to the standard. Enthusiastic households. At this moment, he jumped his feet again and again and regretted it: why was he so short-sighted before? Rather than be the queen of the cow. If you want to get a plaque, of course, take the best! These big fish are all released, do you care about the two small shrimps?
So he immediately beat his chest and paused. Suddenly, Tianliang found out. said that he remembered that his family still owed a large amount of headless debt to the government in the past. To this day, it is an honest and good person who must return it in full. In today's Qiongzhou Mansion, several popped up at once. As the government, of course, we must vigorously commend such good people and good deeds. It's the same even if it's a short-haired government.
All day today. The happiest is probably the owner of Wang Youcai, the owner of Wang Ji's coffin shop in the city, and their family also makes plaques. Today's plaque business of the day is worth the previous year. And the short hair payment is extremely refreshing. It's all paid in full silver!
"Phew. The plague creatures. Can't you figure it out...... It's actually their own money......"
Looking at the empty room standing outside the coffin shop. Not only is it not unlucky, but it is also elated. One by one, the old wealth of the lord waiting to receive the plaque. The young man of the Wang family was very disdainful and spit on him. According to the simple idea of this working people: those old people want to come directly to them and the Wang family will do it. Why send so many things to Shorthair. Then the short hair gives such a piece. Isn't it still the craftsmanship of their royal family? He also feasted on these people. It's almost time to finish. I was treated politely. But it is also a strong and slaughtered family. One by one, they were ready to say goodbye contentedly. But. At this time. There is a Mr. Lin Fenglin, who is also said to be the leader, but he has several followers. Laughing and singing at the door. To all the big ones who go out. One of them handed him a beautifully wrapped wooden box......
