Chapter 601: Rich and Easy to Do (1st Update)
Money and grain are the foundation of everything, and without money and food, empty slogans are the style of the royal history and clear streams. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
But anyone like Wang Shouren knows that if you want to train soldiers and horses, what kind of soldiers you train depends on the amount of money after all.
To put it bluntly, you get what you pay for.
Of course, a good commander can take one tael of silver to train two taels of silver, but if he meets someone like Qian Qian, one tael of silver is estimated to only be able to train a soldier of one penny of silver, as for the other nine coins of silver, I'm sorry, it has already gone into his pocket.
But if there is no one or two pieces of silver as the foundation, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.
Hearing that he was rich, Wang Shouren became determined in his heart.
Things have to be done slowly, but with Wang Shouren as a helper, things are much smoother, Ye Chunqiu first took the time to enter the palace to tell Zhu Houzhao about the recruitment of scholars, as for using the warrior camp as an imaginary enemy, he was not so stupid as to even explain this.
Then it was time to recruit people, because everything was done by yourself, so you had to recruit a few scribes first, and the camp was in the Taiye Pool near Dong'anmen, which belonged to the Forbidden Garden, but it was not within the scope of the palace city, and it was obviously the land of the royal horse race, which was to prevent future whims, and wanted to build the palace.
There was already a deserted camp here, which looked a little shabby, but it was quiet, Ye Chunqiu asked Sun Qi to hire some craftsmen to repair the camp and remove the nearby weeds.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, there are many things to do, such as recruiting scribes in the army, recruiting a doctor, and a man, and having to purchase some horses, as for the military uniform, it was designed by Ye Chunqiu himself, with the light brain, he searched for some general information about the military uniform, Ye Chunqiu did not plan to let these people wear heavy armor to fight hard, to a certain extent, the stronger the protection, the worse the mobility ability, but it is better to be simpler, but it is not easy to suppress it, this kind of thing will naturally be stranded for the time being.
Everything was ready, and on the other side, Wang Shouren led people to recruit people everywhere.
For a while, there were very few applicants.
No one......
Actually, understandable, town. Country. What is the Army? Obviously, whether it is the inner court or the outer court, there is no such establishment, it is estimated that in everyone's eyes, it is just the level of the township bravery, not to mention that good men are not soldiers, and the standard of recruitment in this town is also high, and at least the children who have passed the children's test are still the lowest standard, as for age and height, there are also standards.
In this case, it is strange that people can be recruited.
However, after Ye Chunqiu checked the accounts of the crystal workshop, he settled down and had money.
Crystal began to gradually become popular, which is inseparable from large-scale promotion, and now the sales are huge, almost the original high-temperature furnace and the new furnace started day and night, but also in short supply, this can be manufactured on a large scale, but the cost is low, and the price of the high-priced things, it is simply a profiteering, so now there is a surplus of 37,000 taels, this is just the beginning.
With this, Ye Chunqiu's confidence was enough, and he discussed it with Wang Shouren, and then lightly increased the monthly salary to five taels.
Five taels of silver is by no means a small amount, it is sixty taels a year, which is enough for a family to live a solid life, at least without worrying about food, clothing, housing and transportation.
In this era, because there has not been a large-scale influx of silver in the Americas, the price of silver has not plummeted, and ordinary people can have one or two silver in a month.
Gradually, there were more people who came to apply, although many of them were indiscriminate, and they were all blocked back by Wang Shouren, but there were also many children who failed to do their jobs and had to make a living outside to apply.
Jingshi is not big, and the news circulates quickly, so it didn't take long for the news to spread, and it immediately aroused a lot of criticism, in fact, this is all taken for granted.
Ye Chunqiu now runs to the camp every day, and this morning he got up like this, but this early in the morning, he had just washed up, but someone came to the door, only to see Deng Jian's face full of righteous indignation, and the first thing he said when he saw Ye Chunqiu was: "Ye Chunqiu, our friends are exhausted." ”
Friends......
Ye Chunqiu had just dressed up and was about to go out, but then again, Deng Yushi was really idle enough, he had nothing to do when he was full, so he deliberately ran to his house, just to tell him this?
After Deng Jian said this, he flicked his sleeves angrily and wanted to leave.
Ye Chunqiu was a little ridiculous, and hurriedly stopped him: "Brother Deng, stay and stay, you have to make it clear." ”
Deng Jian turned around, just waiting for you to ask what's going on.
He looked angry, and said in an unkind tone: "You are embarrassed to ask, you have a good cultivation, it is okay to train the soldiers, you are not afraid of being laughed at!" It's your business, but ...... Why did you humiliate Sven so much that you let the scholar be Qiu Ba? Although this boy has no fame, he has also read the books of the sages, and you are ......."
In fact, Ye Chunqiu was mentally prepared for being criticized, but he didn't expect that the matter would be so serious, and he actually went online to insult Sven.
Ye Chunqiu frowned and said, "Be a true friend?" ”
Deng Jian snorted coldly without hesitation: "Naturally, my words count, okay, the words have come to this, farewell." ”
"Wait." Ye Chunqiu stopped him again.
Deng Jian was actually a little reluctant in his heart, no matter what, Ye Chunqiu was not bad to him, but he hoped to force Ye Chunqiu to get lost and return by cutting his robe, and now when he heard Ye Chunqiu say slowly, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and waited for Ye Chunqiu's next sincere repentance and lost way.
Ye Chunqiu lowered his voice and said: "This boy's enlistment in the army can be regarded as a pen from Rong, there seems to be nothing wrong with it, let alone ...... Many people do not go in and out, so what's wrong with letting them serve the country? ”
Deng Jian was stunned for a moment, and then became furious: "What's wrong? A dignified scholar, follow you to dance with a knife and a gun, and a scholar from Rong, that should also be a strategic strategy and a decisive victory thousands of miles away, read the book of sages, but go to fiddle with guns and sticks, and be a pawn, you ...... You're embarrassed to say it. ”
"But the people have already been recruited, do you want to rush back?" Ye Chunqiu spread his hands, looking very helpless.
"Hmph, it's better to rush back anyway, don't you know what the outside is talking about you? Now they are saying that you are not doing your job properly and are asking for merit. Think about it, if you have such a reputation, you will ...... in the future What a good ...... it is."
Ye Chunqiu could feel Deng Jian's anger, but he could also read the kindness in Deng Jian's words, he smiled knowingly, and then said: "Actually, there is one thing, I forgot to say." ”
Deng Jian's thick eyebrows were suppressed: "What's the matter?" ”
Ye Chunqiu leaned in and whispered two words in his ear.
