Chapter 49 Mercenaries
When I came back in the evening, I saw Fan Mingjun's bitter and longing eyes.
"Uncle Fan, I have cooperated with Yang Feng to develop two projects in our name. I didn't tell you because I didn't know if it would work out. ”
"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay, you can decide. Pham Minh Jun laughed happily.
"It's basically done now, but once these two projects are launched, we may be understaffed and we need more people. You must know that mining and mining here all rely on manpower, 6,000 migrant workers and ants are attached to the mountain, and in the pits, it is not enough to look at more. Jin Xiaogu said.
And 4,000 soldiers, although it is a lot, but you must know that the field spread out by manpower is very large, to keep the secret and not look at how to do it, the need for manpower is naturally more, at least 1,000 people are required for each rotation, plus when the time comes to sell sulfur ore to other places, and people need to form a convoy to transport it over, and each shop must be stationed with people, 4,000 soldiers are a bit too little.
"How much do you need?"
"The more the merrier. ”
Why cooperate with Yang Feng, Jin Xiaogu has other considerations.
Since the secret has come out, and it is a secret that tens of thousands of people know, and it is only a rough technical secret that slowly crushes the rock and sifts it, there is no question of how long it can be hidden, and it will be discovered if it takes a little longer, although he Jin Xiaogu will subdivide the process as much as possible, not let people be replaced, and try to delay the time when the secret is exposed, but those who know it will understand it at a glance.
Since it is such a secret that is easy to be discovered, if you want to make money, you can only take the first step, form a scale in the early stage, and form a group operation. Jin Xiaogu was also on guard against this. He doesn't know how to smelt, and he doesn't know what others will say about his so-called sulfur mine, if something happens at that time, there is an interest group on his side, which is also another consideration why Jin Xiaogu dragged other country lords to the ground, and it was also the reason why he only said that the trial operation was three months to half a year at that time.
Now that the trial operation is successful, looking for Yang Feng to cooperate, not only to tie Yang Feng to the chariot, once there is a problem in the mine, others will be investigated, and Yang Feng can resist for a while, how to say that Yang Feng is also a local snake. At the same time, dragging Yang Feng is also conducive to the rapid expansion of the scale, not only in terms of policy, manpower, and the talents needed can be satisfied, but he can also secretly learn what he needs on the side, for example, how to refine metals here. One of the two joint projects is the development of iron ore.
The other one, hehe, of course, is the toy that was planned to be rented to Wu Lin at the beginning. To put it mildly, this thing is profiteering.
However, the scale of the mine can and must be expanded indefinitely, and if not, you can find a new mine, in the final analysis, to ensure the safety of his Jin Xiaogu's life. But selling toys can't be rudely and simply scaled up. Although the thing was found in this world, it was possible to ruin his own reputation, even if he didn't care about stinking this otherworldly culture where he didn't belong.
Once his reputation stinks, or he gets some good or bad reputation in this area, it will be a bit difficult for him to deal with others normally. Although there will inevitably be people in the group he wants to contact who are interested, and it is possible to become a good friend at that time, there are both positive and negative sides, and there will inevitably be people who hate him, for example, those guilds with libraries, once they are unwilling to deal with him, it will be a big loss for him.
"We don't have enough to lead hundreds of thousands of people in twenty-four places?" Fan Mingjun was a little surprised.
"It's not enough fighters, it's seriously insufficient. Jin Xiaogu explained.
The only way to control an interest group is to control the force of the group. Now in the interest group he wants to make, the gap between him and Yang Feng is still very big, if he doesn't want to be controlled by Yang Feng in the future, he can't keep introducing new things, that will only provoke Yang Feng's desires, and he wants to control him more and more.
And if he wants to take the way of personal force to despise everything, he hasn't even touched the high-end combat level of this world, how to get it!
If it really doesn't work, and Yang Feng turns his face, then he can only abandon this piece and start a new stove elsewhere. But when the time comes, the same contradiction will be encountered.
Or, you can completely push Yang Feng to the front desk and kill him!? Stink him, like selling toys!
"In my estimation, we are short of tens of thousands of fighters at the moment alone. Jin Xiaogu continued. "As we all know, once the sulfur mine starts to be sold, the manpower on the side of the sulfur mine will basically not be able to be drawn, and the remaining thousand soldiers here will have to deal with the conscription at that time, and the rest will be almost negligible, and there may be a shortage of people to maintain law and order in the territory at that time. ”
"And our next two projects, one is an iron mine, which will be at least twice as large as the sulfur mine, and the other is a project that sells toys, which may require fewer people, but not by much. ”
"So many?" It's not enough to gather all the magic warriors in the territory, and if you go to other territories to gather people, you won't agree, everyone needs some reserve strength, Fan Mingjun muttered a few words, "Or, do you think it's okay to recruit mercenaries?"
"Mercenaries?"
"It's those ownerless magical warriors. ”
"Aren't those people all discredited and disloyal, and driven out of the territory?" Jiang Ying had mentioned to him, Jin Xiaogu asked.
"No, a large part of them actually became mercenaries because of the war or something, as for you, it's a wandering soldier. It can only be said that they have sat on the wrong side of things or have not done things, and in this regard, many of these people are actually quite capable, but they are not lucky. ”
"Are you sure?" asked Jin Xiaogu. That's a big deal.
"Sure," Pham Minh Jun nodded.
But even so, are these people useful? Not to mention the wandering warriors, many of these people may indeed be as Fan Mingjun said, they were reused in their original territory, and then they were expelled before they became wandering warriors, since they were expelled, it is understandable that no one has the ability to accept them, but those ownerless demonic warriors should have someone to accept them, but why are they still wandering outside? Naturally, they have no ability, and others don't look down on them.
"Even if their character is fine, there should be all kinds of unacceptable things. Jin Xiaogu asked tactfully. This is the kind of person who is often looking for a job in his hometown, either he is incapable, or there is definitely a big problem with his character.
Fan Mingjun didn't understand what Jin Xiaogu meant, but relieved Jin Xiaogu's worries, "If these people want to resettle, they don't have the permission of the city lord, even if the lord agrees, this is one, two, and they have to help them pay a sum of money to clear the past deposit." ”
"What do you mean?" Jin Xiaogu asked strangely.
"In order to make a living, these people will inevitably steal chickens and dogs, you must know that the wandering warriors can't even do guild tasks, where will they get the money to eat? ”
These handfuls, as well as this kind of margin. "How is this money calculated?"
"One hundred gold coins for first-level warriors, two hundred for second-level warriors, four hundred for third-level warriors, eight hundred for fourth-level warriors, two thousand for fifth-level warriors, and five thousand for sixth-level warriors. Fan Mingjun said.
"Seventh-level, hehe, there is no seventh-level?" Jin Xiaogu smiled.
Pham Minh Jun nodded. Regardless of whether there is a problem with the seventh-level one, naturally some people rush to ask for it.
"What if," Fan Mingjun looked at Jin Xiaogu and hesitated.
"Fan Bo, you say. ”
"If you feel the need, we can take a batch, and then we might get some unexpected rewards!"
"Thanksgiving?" Jin Xiaogu asked.
Pham Minh Jun nodded.
Jin Xiaogu pondered, people who know how to be grateful will cherish this acceptance, it will be much easier to use, and it will work a lot harder to do things, but this is not old or young after clearing the deposit, and it is really a complete embodiment of the truth that the greater the ability, the greater the harm, and he now has a net worth of three or four hundred thousand that he can't afford to pay a few. "How many can we find in our neighborhood?"
"It is estimated that there are two thousand, even if there are not many of them, their combat effectiveness will be very strong. Hearing that Jin Xiaogu said that at least tens of thousands were needed, Fan Mingjun didn't know that Jin Xiaogu wanted to pick and choose, and the larger the base, the better the good, thinking that Jin Xiaogu wanted to eat it all.
The difference between domestic flowers and wild flowers, people who have experienced wind and rain will always be more able to endure hardships, "Where can I find them?" Jin Xiaogu asked.
Since there is no problem with ability, and there is no big problem with character, people who are used to living a free and easy life cannot be restrained, cannot be restrained, and are unwilling to be restrained are several realms, and this conflicts with recruitment. Those who have the ability are reluctant to come, and those who don't have the ability to get along can't look down on others.
If that's the case, how many straw bales do you want to be thankful? Let's take a look first.
"I'll take you tomorrow. Fan Mingjun said.
Maybe it's really useful, but now Jin Xiaogu doesn't know.
