Chapter 176 Recruiting troops!(1/2)
Li Chunlai's contribution this time caused a great response in Yiyuan!
Before, although the Yiyuan County Government was not short of achievements, including just a few days ago, I also participated in the entire process of extermination of the Shanshan Feng tribe, and many people had some minor achievements.
But all of this is based on the slander of external forces.
To put it bluntly, Yiyuan County Government has always been a vassal.
At this time, Li Chunlai completely relied on his own to establish a system and eliminated more than 40 bandits alone!
Moreover, it was because Li Chunlai's troops had a significantly less staff than the bandits.
What is this concept?
Although Mao Laoba was not the absolute core of the Mashouzi Department, he was also an old bandit who had become famous for many years in the eastern part of Yiyuan, western Laiwu, and near Xintai. His subordinates were full of blood debts.
How did this thing be fake?
As the bodies of Mao Laoba and others were hung on several major gates in Yiyuan City for public display, while the people were watching the fun, many wealthy and wealthy families were also re-examining their understanding of Li Chunlai.
When Li Chunlai walked out of Jiang's public housing with great enthusiasm and left with great strides, the wealthy and wealthy families were in a state of unstoppable commotion.
What did this Mr. Li San talk to the eldest master Fatty Jiang?
Although they had already guessed something, Mao Laoba's head would definitely add a lot of gloss to Fatty Jiang's resume.
But this is true for people, they all want to know more details.
pity.
What kind of character is Fatty Jiang? How could he reveal such details that are directly related to the future?
They can only make anxious guesses.
...
Just as the incident occurred throughout Yiyuan, the incident of Mao Laoba and others' bodies did not increase but decreased, and became more and more intense.
Li Chunlai has already started to operate something he has always wanted to do but has never been able to do!
That's right.
It’s recruiting soldiers!
This is also one of the secret reasons why Li Chunlai wants to arrogantly repay his merits!
According to the current situation in Yiyuan, there is no upper limit on how many people a large captain leads.
Of course, the lack of upper limit here is definitely not really not set, there will always be a degree.
For example, if a big captain can have 200 elite yamen runners under his command, who can sit steadily and sleep soundly?
Even under the command of Captain Lu, he seems to have more than 200 people, but the ones who can really fight are probably only 20 or 30, and they are all raised by the heads of the family.
Moreover, a considerable number of these yamen runners and constables need the big jailers themselves to bear the salary and expenses.
In a word, it is very deep and the space for operation is quite large.
As the big captain behind Lu Da Captain, Li Chunlai will definitely not surpass the size of Lu Da Captain.
After a period of repeated thinking, including the experience of destroying Mao Lao Ba’s tribe, Li Chunlai’s goal of recruiting soldiers this time was 60 people!
But there are quite a lot of people in the 60 people on the surface.
At this time, the relationship between various aspects has already been in more than 30 or 40.
In addition to the original fifty people under Li Chunlai's command, Li Chunlai nominally had nearly a hundred "strong soldiers and strong horses" subordinates at this time.
But how could Li Chunlai use his fingers like an arm? He had to look at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face. Could it be that they should go to the battlefield to be cannon fodder?
Then Mr. Li San must not have to stay in Yiyuan anymore.
At least at this time, Mr. Li San still doesn’t have the capital.
Fortunately, Li Chunlai's "territory" had been demarcated at this time. With the East Dazhu as the core, the large areas in the south and east of the city all became Li Chunlai's territory.
Although the oil and water in these territories are not too rich, people always need to watch them.
Including the East Prison, after the bandit captive matter is handled, a certain amount of manpower will be added.
These "relationship households" happen to do this job.
The sixty people Li Chunlai really wanted to recruit were recruited completely according to the standards of "Ji Xiao New Book" and the scale of pure war soldiers.
certainly.
At this time, the conditions are limited, and with many unspeakable restrictions, this thing cannot be put into the open, and it should be mainly introduced by relatives and friends.
The main ones are pure and prime men who have married, have innocent family backgrounds, twenty or twenty or thirty or fifteen.
Since we have to "train troops" and prepare for the future, Li Chunlai offered them generous treatment.
As long as he can be selected, not only will he be responsible for food and accommodation, but all the expenses will be covered by Mr. Li San. He will also earn one tael of silver every month, plus ten kilograms of rice and flour.
In fact, according to Li Chunlai's thoughts, he still wanted to recruit people according to the scale of the military household system of the state and the dynasty. He not only had to control these young and strong men, but also their families.
It’s a pity that it’s a bit difficult to think about it at this moment.
——Li Chunlai doesn’t have that much land.
But Li Chunlai was not in a hurry.
At this time, it was the stage of consolidating the foundation. He had already ordered Hong Bin, Li Xiulian, Yang Deshan and others to find suitable land near the city, buy a ready-made farm, or buy a large area of land that may not be very good, build a farm and develop it by himself.
To count it, the conditions for the Dongjiazhuang mansion are very good.
But it is a bit far from the county town, which is not convenient for Li Chunlai's plan at this time.
The wealth Li Chunlai obtained at this time was already ten thousand taels, supporting 60 new recruits. In addition, the number 30 elite under his command was barely maintained even if he wanted to open up new businesses.
In particular, Li Chunlai increasingly realized the truth that "a cannon fire will make you ten thousand taels of gold."
Last night, Li Chunlai's actual cost was only some labor money, plus explosives, and even the subsequent rewards were calculated, which was less than fifty taels of silver.
However, more than 140 taels of silver were found on Mao Laoba and others, and various jewelry items were worth at least 300 taels.
In such a few minutes, I made a pure profit of more than 200 taels.
What else can make money faster than this?
Li Chunlai also discovered that these bandits, like to do desperate tasks and like to put valuable things on themselves.
Unfortunately, there are definitely not so many bandits, and Li Chunlai cannot "swallow the lake and fish" and still want to "sustainable development".
...
As the news of Li Chunlai recruiting soldiers was released, he received great results that evening.
Whether it is Hong Bin, Chen Liuzi, Liu Heizi, Ma Wu, Liu Hui, Zhang Huang, Tian Jing and others, including the brothers in Yiyuan City, they all have many poor relatives.
When the four gangs heard the conditions offered by Li Chunlai, how could they let the fat water flow into the outsiders' fields?
On that day, more than 100 suitable personnel were found for Li Chunlai.
Li Chunlai was a little confused after receiving the news, but he didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
But after careful consideration, he also understood.
With the level of productivity at this time, what kind of work can you do to achieve a scale of more than one or two taels of monthly silver, and can you also keep food and accommodation stable?
Make an inappropriate example.
This is almost equivalent to the fact that in later generations, Li Chunlai, a big boss with a strong official background, directly offered a monthly salary of 50,000 yuan, and recruited brothers for food, accommodation and all the money!
How can this not make people lose their heads?
Just his name Li San is already a gold sign.
...
Just as Li Chunlai was carefully screening the list of these personnel and preparing for a detailed interview tomorrow.
In the junction of Yiyuan and Laiwu, among the mountains of Stepmother Mountain, Ma Whawk finally received news from Yiyuan.
"Play!"
As soon as he heard this news, the horse whistle, which had been suppressed by the government army, immediately threw a large exquisite porcelain bowl that was drinking wine to the ground.
It fell to pieces immediately.
Immediately, his eyes stared at the bandits who were sending the message and cursed: "What's going on?! What's going on?! Is that shitty boy from Mao Laoba?! How could their number 40 or fifty people be destroyed by the only twenty or even the two?!"
The bandit in charge of sending messages was named Song Liu. Because he had big eyes and was very clever, he was nicknamed "Song Dayan".
He is also one of the Eighteen Arhats.
Moreover, he ranks very high, second among the Eighteen Arhats, and is the core figure in the intelligence work under Kushanfeng.
When Song Liu saw the horse whistle like this, his calves became weak. How could he not know that their whistle was not happy recently and was about to find a reason to relieve the fire.
But at this moment, he could not escape at all, so he could only bite the bullet and said, "The boss, the specific situation, the small one, the small one can't explain clearly for a while now. There are all things to say in Yiyuan. Some people say that Li San'er knows magic and is very proficient in gunpowder. Some people say that Li San'er is extremely brave and has the courage to be unworthy of thousands of men. But..."
Song Liu swallowed and continued, "The boss, the young man thought this was not reliable. According to the young man, Xiao Li Saner has recently gathered many good players.
The most famous ones are Chen Liuzi, who is like a bear, and the "a gun" Zhang Huang, the "rolling dragon" Tian Jing and others.
