Ten taels of silver a day is three hundred taels of silver a month. This money is used to hire a guard, which is indeed a bit too much, but if you hire a mercenary leader, let the mercenary leader obey your orders and be devoted to you.
, and can lead a group of rebellious mercenaries to charge into battle for you, that's not much at all.
And even for the mercenaries recruited by the woman named Olivia, she didn't earn a penny. Each person earned one tael of silver a day, which was only about 300 taels of silver a year. As money to buy their lives, this money, money
Wu Bian definitely thinks it's worth it. He doesn't lack these tens of thousands of taels of silver right now. What he lacks is the force to dare to fight and kill, and to execute his orders unconditionally. If he can buy it with money, then all of this won't be a problem.
.
He thinks so, and for the same reason, Olivia and her mercenaries also think so. As long as they can make money, murder and arson are nothing. Among the adventurers who live in the trench mirror, none of them has blood on their hands.
There were only a few lives in her hands, and even she, Olivet, had split more than one or two heads under her battle axe.
When Dasha brought back the news about where the two huge ships were anchored at the pier, Olivia had completely believed Qian Wubing's words. This man was really not joking.
Of course, if he spends such a large sum of money to recruit people, he will not just find a few guards. Even a dull-minded person can understand this. Three, five, or dozens of people may be possible, but if they want
There are hundreds of people, they are not recruiting guards, they are clearly organizing an army.
Olivia doesn't care what the other party recruits them for, mercenaries, don't they just rely on swords to make a living? In her hometown of Saxony, there are countless people like her who have been mercenaries for generations. This is their way of making a living.
.However, she doesn't have to do this, but she cannot care less about the Mingguo master's ability to pay.
After making a fuss for a long time, the account book in her hand was filled with almost eighty names. According to this number, this Ming Dynasty master had to pay hundreds of taels of silver every day to come out and make a fuss.
In the atmosphere, she secretly calculated an account in her mind. She felt a little frightened by this calculation, and the names of the mercenaries whose names were entered in her account book seemed to have been settled.
Many people had already taken out the last coins they had and started partying, which made her even more worried. If tomorrow comes, Master Ming Guo breaks his promise, or in other words, he completely forgets that he has said such words.
This was not an ordinary disaster. Seventy or eighty angry mercenaries turned into pirates in the blink of an eye. They could kill people and rob ships. They might not be able to do it.
That night, she almost just lay down on the table in the tavern and took a nap. As soon as it dawned, she took Er Sha and others who had seen Qian Wubing board the ship with their own eyes, and boarded the ship to ask for Qian.
Wu Yi, of course, she did not forget to bring her own account paper with her names written all over it.
There seemed to be many mercenaries already on the ship. Amid a little anxiety, Olivia saw the young master of the Ming Dynasty whom she had met last night.
"Not bad, we recruited so many people in one night. These people must be strong!" Qian Wubing took the ghost-like thing, scanned it casually, and put it aside. How could he understand this thing?
.
"They are all strong warriors. Some of them are a little weak. They can adjust their diet for a few days and they will be fine!" Olivia no longer had the freedom and ease of last night. The four fully armed mercenaries beside Qian Wubing were so...
As soon as he stopped, Qian Wubing's aura came out naturally. In addition, Qian Wubing moved his Qi and nourished his body. He was used to giving orders these days. When he and Grisha were together, the aura on his body became stronger.
The person's temperament is not obvious yet, but at this moment, he is on his territory, and there are fully armed guards behind him. In this case, Olivia has not felt it, so it can only be said that she is too nervous.
.
"What I want are soldiers who can fight and kill, not the old, weak, sick or disabled!" Qian Wubing shook his head slightly: "I don't want those with weak health, and I don't want those who are sick. You have to check these for me. These people
, you recruited me, and if something happens, I will only look for you, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Olivia felt slightly sorry for those people. She still understood the simple truth of how much money she got, how many things she did, and how much responsibility she had. As a professional mercenary, these most basic ethics
, she is not lacking at all.
"Keep working hard. I will stay here for a few more days. When everyone is here, I will bring them over and send them to the ship!"
"Can I ask?" Olivia said with some uncertainty: "What is our mission? There are many people. If we don't ask clearly, we won't feel at ease!"
"It's easy!" Qian Wubing smiled: "I want to go somewhere overseas, but there may be some people there who don't like me, or may not welcome me there. Of course, I need these people to take you with me.
Shut up, what else could it be for?"
Olivia closed her mouth tightly, but there was a look of "I knew it" in her eyes.
"Okay, you go down first. Someone will take you to Miss Grisha to collect your reward!" Qian Wubing smiled: "However, I advise you to be polite to Miss Grisha.
Right now, he is in charge of my money bag. If you offend her, be careful that she will make things difficult for you regarding your remuneration!"
After seeing off this heroic female mercenary, Qian Wubing couldn't sleep at all. Haojing was indeed a paradise for adventurers from the West. It seemed that his recruitment plan was not difficult to implement at all. It was a pity.
Yes, although this place is a paradise for these people, in my opinion, it is no different from a larger pirate den, dirty, chaotic, and without order.
After last night's trip, he didn't feel like he was still interested in getting off the ship and exploring.
It was a pity that he didn't want to get off the ship, and something came to his door. Not long after breakfast, a subordinate came to report that someone from the Xiangshan County government was here.
Xiangshan County! Qian Wubing was startled for a moment. He saw that the mirror was filled with adventurers from the West. He almost forgot that this place still belonged to the Ming Dynasty. If he thought correctly, this place should belong to Xiangshan County, Guangdong.
within the jurisdiction of.
"Who is here?" He was a little surprised. Even if this place is under the jurisdiction of Xiangshan County, and he didn't identify himself, people from the government wouldn't come looking for him!
"It looks like he's a catcher! He's very impressive!" The subordinate of the Jinyiwei also looked weird. As a Jinyiwei, a local county government's catcher showed his authority in front of him. He must have been a little depressed, so he followed
It seems that Lord Qian has never had such an experience since he went on a mission.
"Let Grisha say hello!" When Qian Wubing heard this, he immediately didn't want to talk to him. It's not that he was proud of his status. With his current status, if he saw a county government arresting a chief, the arresting officer's family must be at least a third generation.
A good person will do what he does, and he will not lead his affairs with such dignified royal guards.
Taking a book casually, he almost immediately forgot about this matter. In his opinion, this kind of thing is really not worth spending energy to think about. If you have this time, you might as well study it carefully.
Let’s take a look at what these maritime merchants wrote about the customs and customs of Fusang.
About half an hour later, Grisha opened his cabin door, with a strange look on her little face.
Seeing Qian Wubing reading, she didn't bother him. She just moved a small brocade and sat down, holding her chin and looking at Qian Wubing.
"What are you doing!" Qian Wubing looked at her like this for a while and couldn't help but ask, why did this girl look like Zhu Yunniang when she was teasing him.
"I think we seem to have been blackmailed!" Grisha couldn't hold it back after all, and burst out laughing: "Sir Qian, we seemed to have been blackmailed by a petty official of your Ming Dynasty just now! I am now
But you don’t know what to do?”
"That catcher?" Qian Wubing reacted: "Is he here to beat our Qiu Feng?"
"So you call him a catcher, but I thought he was a tax collector!" Grisha smiled and nodded: "To say that there is an unjust person living on our ship who takes money instead of money, but almost everyone in the trench knows about it.
Okay, this place is only a big place, it seems that the head catcher is also interested!"
"Just give me a little money to spend!" Qian Wubing waved his hand nonchalantly: "What a big deal!"
"I do think so!" Grisha pouted: "But she has a big appetite, so she first checked our cargo hold, probably trying to find faults with our goods, but she couldn't find any faults, and then we checked our cargo from the ship.
He started to find fault with the people, and he hinted that as long as I know how to do it, he can pretend not to see the cannons on our ship and the weapons in the hands of those people!"
"Then what? Then what did you do?" Qian Wubing asked, tilting his head.
"I asked someone to seal a red envelope of fifty taels of silver for him, but the man didn't seem to see it and didn't extend his hand at all. The people around him also laughed at us. We are treating them like beggars!" Grisha said.
Spreading his hands, he said, "No matter how much money I have, I can't bear to give it to them. Giving them money is to give Ming Dynasty face, but not to give them face. I excused myself because I can't make the decision, so why don't I come to you?"
"Why are you nagging them so much!" Qian Wubing frowned: "You have no shame, just throw them off the boat. If you dare to get on the boat again, break their legs!"
Grisha stuck out her tongue and nodded happily. I didn't know why she was so happy, but I saw her running out like a gust of wind.
Without much effort, Qian Wubing heard the yelling and splashing sounds outside. He shook his head, sighed, and returned his eyes to the page he had just opened. This matter, let Ge
Lisa, go ahead and figure it out. It’s better not to show up or not show up. People’s words are terrible!
