Chapter 19 Companies
The fifth flag was even worse than the fourth, with miasma of smoke everywhere, open defecation, littering of garbage and debris, and soldiers lying on trees everywhere.
However, their hundred households were even more timid, and they did not dare to send anyone out until now, ordering everyone not to go out, and to lie flat in the courtyard.
Seeing Yang Xin's caravan, they surrounded one by one with cheers, and swept away the goods in a moment.
Yang Xin had to send ten people back halfway to get 300 catties of rice noodles and 40 chickens and ducks, which barely satisfied their strong desire to buy.
Yang Xin probably understood that the person of the fifth small flag had never gone out during this time, and the silver in his hand had not been spent, so the desire to buy was stronger than that of the fourth small flag.
The fifth small flag alone bought more than half of Yang Xin's materials, and when Yang Xin returned from selling, the five Daniel Zhang who went to the fourth small banner to sell goods also returned, all beaming and selling out the goods.
A group of people cheered in the yard, and Yang Xin shouted: "Today's business is good, the start is good, Daniel Zhang, ask people to kill two chickens and two ducks, make some dough cakes with white noodles, let's have a good meal!" ”
These half-sized guards had long been hungry, and when they heard this, they immediately cheered again, and they all followed Daniel Zhang to the kitchen.
During this time, the food in the barracks, generally voluntarily joined together to cook, Yang Xin and the two did not cook, naturally they were together, and there were many bachelors who were too lazy to trouble together, these people probably accounted for more than a third, the other Chen carpenter's family, Tian Laobo's family are all together, that is to say, most people are together to eat, that is, each person gives some food, cooks a large pot of sorghum rice, adds a little salt to it, and then Daniel Zhang arranges for each family to take turns to cook rice, and finally according to the amount of rice, it is roughly estimated to eat, More out of more, less out of less.
There are only a few people, either who want to save a little more, want to eat less and take out less embarrassed to partner with everyone, or they are not very gregarious, these people also have fifty or sixty people, so they cook their own, some wait for the kitchen to run out and wait in line to use the kitchen, and some just dig a pit in the yard and hang a pot to boil, these are their own pots, when the homeless people do this, but they are also familiar with it.
Now, Yang Xin has brought these 20 soldiers into the group, and the 20 families will eat together for lunch today, anyway, they will treat them at public expense. Daniel Zhang directly arranged for the family to cook, and these half-sized children ran to help kill chickens and ducks, they had not eaten meat and white noodles for a long time, one by one, while working, drooling, and then buying some vegetables from the farmers who set up stalls at the door, a hearty lunch was all alive.
There are a few tables in the courtyard, and a total of 40 people from 20 families will not eat, just like the New Year.
Yang Xin and the princess naturally sat down.
"Come, Daniel Zhang, you did a good job today, reward you with a chicken leg!"
Yang Xin broke a chicken leg and handed it to Daniel Zhang.
Daniel Zhang was holding the whole cake and stuffing it into his mouth, and when he heard this, he quickly took it and sent it to his mouth, and he didn't even have time to say thank you, and everyone laughed.
"The Zhang family boy, now you can bear it, you are really impatient as the captain of the guard, you ate wild vegetables bare-bottomed during the Chinese New Year last year, and now you can eat white-flour chicken legs compared to the landlord's old wealth!"
Uncle Tian on the side was drooling and laughing on the side, causing everyone to laugh.
The people who did not join the barracks were basically watching, watching with envy as everyone ate well.
This Uncle Tian is the best at saying that others are embarrassed to get too close, but he has been gathering by Yang Xin's side, chatting constantly and making himself like a banquet manager.
Carpenter Chen on the side gave him a look, and Uncle Tian saw that his words had attracted everyone's attention, and then said: "I'll just say, our general has the ability to keep our military camp in order, and he can also bring everyone to make a fortune, don't you say?" ”
As he spoke, he yelled at the crowd.
The crowd hurriedly echoed and cheered.
"Tian Lao is right!"
"General Yang is amazing!"
……
"General Yang will also take us to make a fortune together!"
When everyone finished shouting and was about to calm down, suddenly, such a sentence came out.
The crowd erupted and chimed in.
"That's right! The general took us with him! ”
"We can sell too!"
"We all listen to the general, and we will do whatever we are told to do!"
……
The crowd is surging, they all want to join the gang, Yang Xin sneered in his heart, this is the benefit, everyone naturally wants to follow him if there is a benefit, and the interests are tied, there is no disloyalty, because helping him is equivalent to helping himself.
He deliberately set up a banquet in the courtyard, wanting this effect, but it would be difficult to act, and he did not reply.
Uncle Tian said next to him: "General, you see, this big guy wants to join the gang, does the general think about it, everyone has fully supported the general since they entered this barracks." ”
Yang Xin just borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and said, "Okay, it's not like we people eat meat, let's see if you can't eat enough." ”
Uncle Tian was overjoyed and said loudly: "Everyone, the general has agreed, and those who want to join the gang should prepare the silver!" ”
He deliberately shouted loudly, just to confirm Yang Xin's words, so that he couldn't regret it in public.
The crowd cheered and applauded.
Yang Xin stood up, waved his hand, and said, "Everyone, please listen to General Ben's words!" ”
The crowd was silent and listened carefully.
"Everyone knows, do things with General Ben, everything pays attention to a rule, everyone wants to join the gang, what about the conditions, like Daniel Zhang and them, each of them contributed four taels and earned money, General Ben is divided into five layers, and the rest are divided equally between you, whoever leads the way, does a good job and divides more, and the specific amount is determined by General Ben, and those who do poorly, as long as they are not cheating and playing tricks, do their best, General Ben will not ask anything, and still divide the money, if they are cheating and slippery, eating inside and out, then don't blame General Ben for being merciless."
After listening to it, everyone thought about it, this rule is not too much, it is acceptable, and they hurriedly agreed, and some people retreated, after all, four taels of silver is almost all their belongings, and they are all handed over to this recruit who has only been with him for a few days, I don't know if there will be a problem.
Uncle Tian smiled all over his face and said: "What the general said is very true, just do what the general said, since the previous people were all such rules, then there is no reason for those of us who joined the gang not to obey it." ”
"Yes!"
"Everything is under the orders of the general!"
……
Most of the people who wanted to join the gang cheered, and they prepared the silver and went.
Yang Xin was not verbose, striking while the iron was hot, the meal was not finished, he called someone to bring paper and pen on the spot, and while handing over the silver, he asked the princess to record, and immediately added sixty-five new soldiers, four taels per person, and collected two hundred and sixty taels of capital.
Coupled with the original capital of 90 taels, there are as many as 350 taels in total, and today I have earned more than 70 taels, and I can divide half of it, and there are more than 30 taels.
The business is getting bigger and bigger, and the princess has become her own accountant, but she didn't expect that instead of building this homeless tribe into a usable army, she formed a small company.
