The most troublesome thing for Yang Xin is that they only have musketeers, a single class, no melee soldiers, and it is not a big problem to deal with a small number of enemies, but if they go to the battlefield, they will not have the ability to survive at all.

This is also a helpless choice, half of Yang Xin's soldiers are his own shareholders, these people he is reluctant to let them die, the musket is less firepower is not enough, and it cannot form an effective deterrent at all.

The most important thing is that if these recruits are called to close combat, they will not be able to train at all in a short period of time, and it is impossible to form effective combat effectiveness without a certain amount of battlefield experience and long-term training in cold weapons face-to-face fighting.

The elite of the Dashun army is all killed from the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, the elite of the Qing army, that is even more practiced at home since childhood, Jiannu is basically a soldier of the whole people, although the Ming army lacks drills, but it is well-equipped, the strongest Guanning army, that is also trained by countless silver taels and daily battlefield fighting, the Ming army is strong in firearms and equipment, on the heroism of the soldiers, it is far inferior to the Qing army.

Recruit a group of homeless people casually, give them military training, and dare to fight face-to-face with a big knife and spear to win these elites, that is just the wishful thinking of some college student online writers.

And let them take muskets for long-range shooting, from the mental level and experience is much better, so training musketeers is the fastest to become an army, if he practices fifty musketeers, fifty spears and shields, the result is that only those fifty muskets can be used, and the fifty melee soldiers are still a rabble, and they will collapse at the touch of a button, it is better to directly practice a hundred muskets.

As for the problem of the lack of melee troops, Yang Xinjue's current situation, it is unrealistic to train his own troops, and the fastest way to become an army is to spend money directly to buy them, as long as he is willing to spend money, he doesn't believe that he can't buy melee elite soldiers.

Fortunately, Liu Zongmin ended the search, order was restored on the street, and he could sell grain normally again, and a lot of silver was put into the account every day, Yang Xin felt a lot more at ease, but the business was much worse, and the people were robbed again and became poorer, and many people had begun to leave the capital and go to other places to find a way to live.

Yang Xin had no distractions, concentrated on training, and handed over the matter of selling grain to his henchmen.

In this way, after another ten days, the silver obtained from selling grain has exceeded 300,000 taels, and Yang Xin felt that it was time to implement his second-step plan, so at the meeting of the day, he announced his order.

"Open a bank?"

Everyone was confused, and Uncle Tian was still the first to speak, asking: "General, how does this money village open the law?" ”

"General, the Qing army will soon attack the city, we will open a money village at this time, what should we do if the Qing army comes over?"

Aunt Chen's questions are more level than Uncle Tian's.

Yang Xin was confident, took out a scroll of brocade from his arms, and threw it to Aunt Chen.

But Aunt Chen was illiterate, so she showed it to the princess and asked, "Madam, help me see, what is written on this?" ”

Yang Xin shook his head, none of these henchmen were literate, and they were also drunk, so he could only say: "No need to ask, this is an agreement we signed with the regent of the Qing Dynasty, Dorgon, we have the right to do business under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, and it is tax-free, and the Qing Dynasty cannot prevent our money from entering and leaving the Qing Dynasty!" ”

Yang Xin continued: "In this way, we don't have to worry about the fact that the silver can't be transported out of the capital, because we don't need to transport it away at all!" ”

Everyone cheered in unison, with this agreement, it didn't matter if their silver was left in the Qing Dynasty, they could come and withdraw it at any time anyway.

"The general's foresight, I admire it!"

Uncle Tian smiled and took the lead in patting the fart.

Yang Xin smiled and said: "Don't be too happy too early, although there is an agreement with the Qing Dynasty, but at least we must safely guard until the Qing soldiers enter the city, even if the Qing soldiers enter the city, we must guard against the idea of someone in the Qing court beating us, after all, the silver is not in its own territory, it is always risky!" ”

Everyone's faces suddenly became solemn again.

Uncle Tian said with a smile: "General, despite this, it is much easier than running away with nearly a million taels of silver at that time." ”

Yang Xin nodded, and continued: "So General Ben decided to set up a money bank, the name is Daxing Money Village, with Uncle Tian as the shopkeeper and responsible for the business, and Aunt Chen as the account room, responsible for all the accounts and gold and silver in and out. ”

Yang Xin will not be like the money bank in this era, one person is responsible for all affairs, he can separate business and accounts, so that mutual supervision can be achieved to prevent corruption.

Uncle Tian happily accepted the order, but this Aunt Chen was a little embarrassed, and said: "General, I can't read, I'm afraid I can't do this account, why don't I let Mrs. do it?" ”

Yang Xin shook his head and said, "No, Madame will leave the city with me at that time, the two of you will lead all the old and weak women and children in the army to stay, and I will leave you with another twenty family members, led by Wei Wu." As for the problem of your illiteracy, don't you have a literate daughter-in-law in your Chen family? Solve this matter yourself! ”

Yang Xin felt that among the guards, Wei Wu was the most loyal to him, and it was the safest to leave him here to guard, and when he left, he would naturally take away the four sons of the Tian Chen family, and he was not afraid that they would be embarrassed and swallow everyone's silver.

At this time, Uncle Tian said again: "General, since we have an agreement with the Qing Dynasty, there is no need for you and Mrs. to leave, it is better for everyone to stay, it is safer." ”

When he said this, everyone agreed, and the princess's face changed when she heard this, and her heart suddenly became nervous.

In fact, Yang Xin can also choose to stay, as long as he finds a place to hide when the time comes, so that the Dashun army can't find it, but he promised the princess that he would send her to Nanjing, so he must leave, seeing everyone asking, he had to find an excuse and said: "We are all left behind, I'm afraid that the Dashun army is not easy to explain, and sending people under the fence is never a long-term solution, this general wants to take people out to lay down a piece of our own territory!" ”

When the princess saw him say this, she was relieved.

Everyone was a little worried, after all, leaving twenty soldiers, Yang Xin could only take away eighty people, relying on these eighty people to build a city, it was undoubtedly a fool's dream.

But they knew the general's ability, and they all believed in Yang Xin a little blindly, especially those half-sized guards, Daniel Zhang was ready to shout out excitedly at this time, and said: "The general is right, we will never send people under the fence, we will recruit troops and horses when we leave the capital, and now that we have money and food, are we afraid that we will not be able to recruit soldiers?" ”

"Okay, since the general has made up his mind, the old man will no longer persuade him, but how to open this money bank, the old man doesn't know anything, and he still hopes that the general will give advice."

Uncle Tian asked confusedly.

Yang Xin nodded and said: "You first go to the neighborhood to buy a big house, the most expensive kind, and then, even if you open the door, you only accept silver deposits, and give customers three percent interest per year, but you only accept large households with more than 10,000 taels of silver, and you don't have to pay attention to the broken silver with ordinary white surnames!" ”

"What? Not only do we not charge, but we also give interest to our guests, so how do we make money? ”

Everyone was stunned, and Aunt Chen shouted loudly.

Uncle Tian's jaw dropped even more, and he said, "General, the business of depositing 10,000 taels of silver is only done, so how many customers can we find?" Doesn't it turn the vast majority of people out? ”

Yang Xin no longer explained, and said: "Do what I say, before the city is broken, it will be operated like this, how to do it after the city is broken, wait for my further orders, you don't have to rush to do business now, if someone comes to the door, just wait, keep a low profile, wait for my further instructions." ”

Everyone only felt that Yang Xin didn't want to do money business at all, and he was afraid that building a money bank was just a cover for those who stayed in the capital.
