Chapter 92: The Financial Crisis

Modern military basic training is by no means unreasonable. The days on end made the soldiers feel like they were in hell, but it also changed everyone's mental outlook a lot.

Qiao and Zhu always thought that Meng Han was only a lord who came to meddle in military training in order to show his authority. This is understandable, he is a lord, and naturally has the right to command his own soldiers. However, the two were really worried at first that Meng Han's finger-pointing would bring everyone's training to a halt and even have a negative impact.

However, after seeing the changes in the warriors, they also had to admit that the seemingly unreasonable simple training of the lord had excellent results. And those standard actions and passwords, when executed by everyone at the same time, still give people the feeling of a real handy commander.

The neat queue, the neat footsteps, Qiao and Zhu led the team by themselves, of course, they have experience. Simple movements and passwords make everyone feel like one person. The two of them would not hesitate to believe that if Meng Han ordered everyone to walk towards the castle wall, then even if they hit their heads, there must be only one voice.

It was only after a few days that the two realized that this was the real army, this was the army that people dreamed of, and those they had seen before were nothing at all. Meng Han repeatedly emphasized the order and forbidden, and now the two of them completely understood what it was like.

Qiao and Zhu had been in the mercenary group outside, and they had also mixed in with some nobles' personal soldiers, but they had never felt like this. Even the most experienced nobles' personal troops, when fighting, it is impossible to carry out orders in such a uniform manner. As for those mercenary groups, needless to say, compared to these pro-soldiers who can only be regarded as strong men now, those experienced mercenaries are more like a rabble.

The two of them firmly believed that if these people were to face the sand pirates now, even if they did not have any combat training, what they had done in front of them would be enough to keep them firmly on the opposite side of the enemy, and there would be no sign of collapse. And this is just the simplest movement of some of the movements taught by the lord and the effect of a few days of training.

Now, Qiao and Zhu no longer dared to underestimate this young lord. The fact that it happened in front of them, and even in person, had clearly told the two of them how deep the lord's military attainments were. I guess what I saw in front of me was just the skin of the lord, a simple action that was called a regular action, and I really didn't know how shocking and exciting it would be when the lord really started combat training.

It must be said that the twins' own efforts also played a huge role in this. Under Meng Han's order, and stimulated by everyone's common ideals, all of them, regardless of whether they had practiced basic Dou Qi or not, all took out their greatest strength to join the training. Even Qiao and Zhu began to spare no effort to train after realizing the benefits of Lord Lord's method, if you really want to talk about it, they are the hardest couple.

Of course, Meng Han did not forget to ignore the training of personal strength while increasing the surname of discipline and cooperation. After dinner, it was time for Qiao and Zhu to take the fighters who had practiced basic fighting qi to teach the new fighters who had not learned.

And that's not all, every morning when they get up, these warriors have to line up and run from the barracks to the edge of the Elven Forest and back, or go around the Dwarven Mountains and come back. The queue training and military posture training in the morning, the same practice in the afternoon, and the practice of fighting spirit in the evening, the plan is very tight, and even the rest time is almost compressed to the extreme.

Every day, even the strongest Qiao and Zhu would be tired and their whole bodies were sore, because Meng Han asked them to carry twice as much weight as others. As long as you lie down on the bed, you can fall asleep immediately, and you have never had the trouble of insomnia.

That's not all, the lord often thinks of strange ways to increase everyone's suffering. For example, in the middle of the night, there was a sudden rise and an emergency gathering, calling everyone out of bed and going to the toilet en masse. Or often let the elder brother team and the younger brother compete against each other, the loser will be corporal punishment, and the originally close brother who is harmed, now as long as he is on the training ground, as if he is with the enemy, he will be red when he sees it, and he will unconsciously train and scream.

Originally, if the lord had practiced and personally led everyone to train, the effect would have been better. It's a pity that the adult's thin little body can't withstand such a toss, and every time he uses the most comfortable and leisurely posture to issue orders, just move his mouth, and then let everyone break his legs.

No one complained, adults are magicians, and their bodies are weak, so they naturally understand. Besides, everyone understands that adults are not trying to toss them for no reason, but so that they can become real soldiers, the strongest personal soldiers who can protect their companions and adults.

Along with these, there is also the food of the pro-soldiers. Three meals a day, meat for each meal. Meng Han even trained hard, and he was not stingy in nutrition, he wanted the strongest warriors, not the warriors who could save food. After a few days, the cost of these pro-soldiers alone made Grace can't help but feel a little painful.

"It's still a long way off!" Meng Han faced his two butlers in the Lord's Mansion, expressing his dissatisfaction with great regret: "Everyone's military uniforms must be unified, and the equipment must also be unified. Swords, bows, daggers, everyone has to be equipped, as well as armor and mounts, it's not enough!"

Meng Han counted while wrenching his fingers, and soon found that he seemed to be counting more and more, and this was only the cost of a hundred people for less than a month, no wonder in his previous life, the military expenditure was so huge. As long as you start to raise the army, you have to keep investing, and it is simply a bottomless pit that swallows money.

"My lord, we don't have much gold anymore, and we must make money right away. "Grace and Alice had to tell their lord the truth. Although Meng Han's business of exchanging the base of a scroll for one gold coin every day was still continuing, the construction of the castle and the training of the pro-soldier team were about to spend the last bit of gold in Huangsha Town.

"Why am I so poor!" Hearing the bad news of having no money again, Meng Han was simply depressed and wanted to look up to the sky and howl. However, this is also what he asked for, Grace and Alice have long said that there are not enough gold coins, and Meng Han also had a whim to get a pro-soldier team.

"How's your plan going?" Seeing the two beautiful housekeepers looking at him with a resentful face, Meng Han couldn't help but feel a little weak. However, he does not regret what he has done, some money must be spent, and if he does not spend it, he will feel unreliable.

"We're done, please see, my lord. The two women each handed Meng Han a plan for him to look at. This is what Meng Han requires, a production plan, a sales plan.

"Still recruiting people?" Meng Han only looked at it for a moment, then frowned. The money is not enough, and I have to find someone, where is the cost?

"My lord!" Alice hurriedly explained: "The bathroom equipment you mentioned, even if those pipes and toilet towers are produced, they still need someone to install them! ”

Alice is ambitious, and wants to take care of all the after-sales products, and the plan is very big. However, if this plan is realized, it is true that the benefits can be maximized, and the ones who will get the benefits will definitely be Huangsha Town and the lord himself.

"However, the cost will be even greater, and there will be no way to make money until this new group of recruits is proficient. It's not that Meng Han doesn't want to maximize profits, but the reality doesn't allow him to do so. There is no bank in this world that can take out a mortgage, so he can hold on for a few more months, waiting for those workers to train and come out.

Relatively speaking, the production plan is more reasonable, or the use of existing manpower, there is not much change.

"Alice, according to this sales plan, we need to sell these things to the big nobles. Meng Han patiently began to communicate with Alice: "Do you think those big nobles will pay attention to me, the lord of Huangsha Town?"

"Probably, not really!" replied Alice with a shake of her head.

"So, how do we sell things to them? We don't even see the people who can call the shots. Looking into Alice's eyes, Meng Han continued to ask.

"I don't know. Alice is also the first time to contact such a big business, and she wants to work hard to do it perfectly, but her lack of experience makes her not see the problem here.

"Sometimes, you can't make enough money on a person's side. Meng Han smiled and comforted the two women: "When necessary, we must let others earn a part of it, so that we can achieve our goal." Do you understand?"

The two women shook their heads in unison, not understanding what Meng Han meant. Meng Han was about to explain, but there was an assistant of Grace outside, Grace went out to listen for a while, and suddenly walked into the lord's mansion with some surprise and reported to Meng Han: "My lord, a team of people has come, and one of them is a nobleman, and they say that it is a territory inspection official sent by His Majesty the King. ”

"Oh, what's the inspection?" Meng Han asked in surprise, but immediately overjoyed: "I was sleeping, and someone brought a pillow." is short of money, someone will send it to the door, what a chance!"

In the incomprehensible gaze of the two women, Meng Han stood up excitedly: "Is there a better advertising spokesperson and partner than His Majesty the King's inspector? Go, go with me to meet this adult!"
