The deafening sound of firecrackers sounded outside the door, and as soon as he heard the movement, Quan Dashan, the deputy commander of the pro-soldier team, immediately approached Wu Shigong with several pro-soldiers to protect him. Quan Dashan was transferred to the pro-soldier team this time to make up the class, and after a period of training, he will be at least a deputy regiment commander when he is released, so no matter training and guarding, Quan Dashan is meticulous.

Tao Xin's mother, Tao Shi, has sent someone to match, and in a few days it will be Nacai's day. But Tao Xin was very anxious, because both men and women could not meet each other after Nacai, so today he wanted to talk to Xiaojie in the name of meeting Wu Shigong.

Wu Shigong didn't make the light bulb anymore, and stayed at home to see Tao Xin's hateful face, so he simply came to participate in the opening of the stock exchange. And the deputy commander Quan Dashan personally led the team today.

Seeing the whole mountain coming, Wu Shigong waved his hand outward and said, "It's all your own people here, don't be so nervous." ”

After coming to the stock exchange, Wu Shigong regretted a little, and the guests who came over were busy visiting him, which made Wu Shigong annoyed, so Wu Shigong instructed the shopkeeper of the stock exchange to let him find a secluded room for himself to rest, and now those who can get close to this room, in addition to the officials who participated in the opening of Ru Ningjun, there are only the three bosses who are listed today.

But it's boring to just stay, so Wu Shigong beckoned the three bosses to come over. Chang Meng, Bian Chengwang and Li's mother immediately came to visit, but except for Chang Meng's normal expression, Bian Chengwang and Li's mother both had a bitter face.

Originally, Bian Chengwang and Li's mother were supporting the stock exchange, so they originally planned to issue a maximum of 1,000 taels of shares. However, in order to get off to a good start, the shopkeeper of the stock exchange forced them to increase the number of their issuance to 5,000 taels.

Chang Meng's reclamation firm is okay, anyway, if you have more money, you can recruit more people, buy more farm tools and seeds, and use it to enclose more land. Open more Tuntian Zhuangzi. But Bian Chengwang and Li's mother are different.

Bian Chengwang's ironware workshop is also on this scale, and Li's mother's Qinglou chain is unlikely to be overwhelming. Moreover, because these two people were able to cope with a small scene, they had little experience in the construction and management of large-scale factories and entertainment venues. In addition, at this time, all the bosses hope that their industry is just a unique family, and they are not very happy that outsiders come to participate in the shares, so now they are a little reluctant in their hearts.

Suppose this: If the modern red and purple CSRC personnel knew that the issuance of stocks at the end of the Ming Dynasty was like this, I wonder if they would be shocked and dumbfounded?

Wu Shigong didn't care about their psychological activities, he first asked Chang Meng: "Do you have any problems with the reclamation business now?" ”

Chang Meng hurriedly bowed down and replied, "Master! Nothing else, just too many comptoir guards. The little one is about to ask the lord for help, hoping that the lord will send some people who can lead the troops. Train the small guards, and then take care of those guards. The little ones don't understand this! ”

"Oh?" Wu Shigong smiled and said, "How many guards do you have there now?" ”

"Excluding the families of Mr. Li and the other squires, the villain has collected more than 8,000 by himself, and the silver obtained from the securities is ready to be used on them."

"Huh?" Wu Shigong suddenly became interested. "Just five thousand taels of silver, how long can you use these eight thousand people?"

"The small merchant guards are not paid. A death pact was made: they worked for our firm for three years. After that, the comptoir gave each of them thirty acres of land. But this land also has to pay our Runing Army's tax on one acre of land. Of course, these guards also had some rewards after they took the fields, and they did not accept them from the trading houses. In the next ten years, they will also form a reserve army, and once the merchant company gives the order, they will also go out for free. Otherwise, the land allocated to them will be confiscated by the merchant. And five thousand taels of silver is nothing more than their pension. ”

"What about their grain and grass?" Wu Shigong asked again.

Chang Meng immediately laughed: "Master! Have you forgotten that there is a supply from Mr. Li and those squires? Otherwise, why should we give them a share in the Reclamation Firm? ”

"Hahaha-!" Wu Shigong was also happy. It's really my own negligence. But what made him happier was the discovery of a new way to raise soldiers.

In fact, all the soldiers of the Runing Army are professional soldiers, and although the combat effectiveness is very strong, the pressure on military salaries is very heavy, so it is difficult to expand the army on a large scale. The essence of Chang Meng's method is compulsory soldiers, which can easily mobilize a large number of soldiers.

And Wu Shigong felt that these two recruitment methods could be combined, professional soldiers trained sergeants and officers, and compulsory soldiers became grassroots soldiers, so that the Runing Army could quickly expand its army.

But now that there are still people around, this idea also needs to be discussed and improved, so Wu Shigong is not ready to talk about this topic for the time being. So Wu Shigong praised: "Chang Meng, you have done a good job, and you deserve to be a person from the house." I won't point fingers, sir, do what you want, remember! Don't worry, I'm in the back. As for the people who train the troops, I'll give you an answer when I go back, sir! ”

"Thank you, sir!" Chang Meng, who was praised by Wu Shigong, smiled, and he hurriedly knelt down and saluted to thank Wu Shigong for his praise. Chang Meng is a person who understands Wu Shigong's intentions, so now he has made up his mind to recruit more such guards.

Wu Shigong turned his gaze to Bian Chengwang again. Bian Chengwang hurriedly said: "My lord! Now the villain's ironwork workshop is so big, and there are only so many craftsmen, this time he took so much silver from this stock exchange, the villain is afraid that he won't be able to use it then! ”

Looking at Bian Chengwang's sad face, Wu Shigong couldn't help laughing: "It seems that Bian Dajiang is used to living a hard life, and he is uncomfortable with silver." What did you do with the money? Build workshops, recruit craftsmen, and train apprentices! Why can't it be used? ”

"But my lord! It is certainly difficult to recruit craftsmen now, but there are too many laborers and people willing to be apprentices in the workshop, as long as they pay a small salary, so to build a new workshop is to use some material money, and the villain is still afraid that he will not be able to spend all this silver! Bian Chengwang continued to sigh bitterly.

"Then don't spend it!" Wu Shigong's answer made Bian Chengwang stunned, "You won't save the extra silver in the bank?" You can also eat some interest. I think your brain is rusty, and you don't need to pay back the money from the stock exchange, let alone pay interest, what do you have to bear? ”

Listening to Wu Shigong's words, Bian Chengwang and Li's mother's eyes suddenly lit up, and they only discovered this wonderful thing at this time, so they immediately became smiling.

Seeing that the appearance of these two people was wrong, Wu Shigong hurriedly began to pour cold water: "Don't use your brains, since you sold part of your shares, other shareholders can also come over to check the accounts." So be sure to spend the money on the workshop. Let's give you a thorough explanation! Although the casualties of our Runing Army this time were not large, the casualties of those with armor were much smaller than those without armor, so the stock exchange would then issue 20,000 taels of Runing Army bonds. ”

"Most of this bond will be used for the purchase of armor. This news has been given to you, don't you be unprepared when the time comes, and watch the business be robbed by the Nanyang Iron Workshop in vain? ”

"Really! My lord! Bian Chengwang was immediately overjoyed, "That villain must live up to his trust, go back and start work immediately, and build two workshops of the same scale." ”

But before Bian Chengwang finished speaking, Mother Li on the side couldn't help but speak, and she said coquettishly: "Don't be too partial, adults!" Let's also come up with an idea for the slave family! The slave's little heart is going to be frightened! ”

While speaking, Mother Li was holding her breasts enlargement, and this pitiful and amorous appearance was quite in place.

Mother Li's development to this point is completely dependent on the development of Runing Army. Now Mother Li, as long as the tentacles of the Runing Army reach anywhere, she will immediately follow up, completely in a rhythm of planting colorful flags all over the entire Runing Army-controlled area.

But Li's mother is almost a business, because of the long-term disasters and wars, there is no shortage of beautiful women, and some well-read girls are also forced to fall into the dust, and Li's mother can buy a large number of cabbages at the price of some cabbage. As long as it is packaged, Li's mother can make them popular or simply sell them at a high price to big households as concubines. It's a book of profits. In particular, Runingjun's high salary has created a large number of middle classes, making Li's mother's business can only be described as hot.

Therefore, it is difficult for Bian Chengwang to use up 5,000 taels of silver, and Li's mother can't use it anymore.

At this time, Wu Shigong was also looking at Li's mother. Although Li's mother is now an old bustard, she was also a top brand in Guide City, and her appearance is also very good. And she is not very old, only in her early thirties, and by modern age, she can only be described as a young woman.

So Wu Shigong teased and said, "Mother Li! You're an old man in this business, why do you ask me about a layman? ”

"My lord is making fun of the slave again." Mother Li immediately threw a wink at Wu Shigong, "The slave family is not old, don't call the slave mother!" The slave family's name is Yuenu. ”

Seeing that the situation was not right, Chang Meng hurriedly pulled Bian Chengwang out and told Quan Dashan not to get too close to the house.

"So a moon slave! I'm going to get paid for my idea."

"I'm not coming! Adults bully slaves! You give others a set, that is, you go to the slave house and swallow it. Adults bully slaves. The slave family is not coming! ”

"That's ......"

……

The two of them laughed gradually. Although this occasion is not right, Wu Shigong will not have anything to do with Li's mother, but Wu Shigong doesn't mind having some dewy marriage with Li's mother in the future, which can be regarded as a change of taste!

Since the turmoil in the inner house, Wu Shigong has palpitations, this wife has begged too much, and there are too many children, this is all trouble! Why don't you just look for something fresh outside? (To be continued......)
