Money and grain are the basis of everything. Without money and grain, empty talk is the style of the censors and the Qingliu.

But anyone like Wang Shouren knows that if you want to train troops, what kind of troops you want to train will depend on how much money you will get.

To put it bluntly, you get what you pay for.

Of course, a good commander can use one tael of silver to train soldiers with two taels of silver, but if you encounter Qian Qian like this, one tael of silver will probably only be able to train soldiers with one tael of silver. As for the other nine points of silver, I'm sorry, it has already entered his pocket.

But if you don’t have this tael of silver as a foundation, it is difficult for a good cook to cook without rice.

When Wang Shouren heard that he was rich, he became confident.

Things have to be done slowly, but with Wang Shouren as his helper, things have been much smoother. Ye Chunqiu first took the time to enter the palace to report to Zhu Houzhao about recruiting scholars. As for the matter of using the Warriors camp as a hypothetical enemy, he was not so stupid that he even explained this.

Then we started to recruit people. Because we did everything ourselves, we had to recruit a few clerks first. The camp was right at the Taiye Pond near Dong'anmen. It belonged to the forbidden garden, but not the scope of the palace city. It was obviously the land of the Royal Horse Race Cycle, just to prevent the use of building palaces on a whim in the future.

There is an abandoned camp here, which seems a bit shabby, but it is better than quiet. Ye Chunqiu asked Sun Qi to invite some craftsmen to repair the camp and remove the nearby weeds.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and there are many things to do, such as recruiting clerks in the army, recruiting a doctor, and having a keen man, and purchasing some horses. As for military uniforms, Ye Chunqiu designed them by himself. With his brain, he searched for some general information about military uniforms. Ye Chunqiu did not intend to let these people wear heavy armor to fight to the death. To some extent, the stronger the protection, the worse the maneuverability, and it is better to be simpler, but it is not easy to make the system, so this kind of thing will naturally be stranded for the time being.

Everything was ready, and Wang Shouren, on the other hand, led people around to recruit people.

For a moment, few people accepted the election.

No one...

In fact, it is understandable, what is the town and country army? Obviously, no matter whether the inner court is in the outer court, there is no such organization. It is estimated that in everyone's eyes, it is just the level of a local brave man. Moreover, the recruitment standards of this town are also high, and at least they have to pass the children's examination. This is the lowest standard. As for age and height, there are also standards.

In this case, it would be strange if you can recruit people.

However, after Ye Chunqiu checked the accounts of the Crystal Workshop, he became convinced that he had money.

Crystals are becoming increasingly popular, which is inseparable from large-scale promotion. Now, sales are extremely large, almost the original high-temperature furnace and newly built furnace start construction day and night, and there is also a shortage of supply. This kind of thing that can be manufactured on a large scale but is cheap and expensive is simply huge profits. Therefore, the surplus in the account is as much as 37,000 taels, which is just the beginning.

With this, Ye Chunqiu was confident enough, so he discussed with Wang Shouren, and then increased his monthly salary to five taels lightly.

Five taels of silver are definitely not a small amount, but sixty taels a year are enough for a family to live a prosperous life, at least not worrying about food, clothing, housing and transportation.

In this era, because silver in America has not yet poured in on a large scale, the price of silver has not plummeted. It is amazing for ordinary people to have one tael of silver in a month.

Gradually, more people came to apply for the recruitment. Although many of them were just a substitute and were blocked by Wang Shouren, many of them failed to do business and had an average family background. They had to make a living outside to apply for the recruitment.

The capital was not big, and the news was circulating very quickly. So soon, the news spread and immediately caused criticism from many people. In fact, this was all taken for granted.

Ye Chunqiu is now running to the camp every day, and the same is true for getting up early this morning. However, early in the morning, he had just washed up, but someone came to the door. Deng Jian looked full of righteous indignation. The first thing he said when he saw Ye Chunqiu was: "Ye Chunqiu, we are all friends."

Friends all...

Ye Chunqiu had just dressed up and was about to go out. Having said that, Censor Deng was really idle enough. He had nothing to do when he was full, so he went to his house to tell him this?

After Deng Jian said this, he angrily turned his sleeves and was about to leave.

Ye Chunqiu was a little ridiculous and quickly called him: "Brother Deng, please stay, you have to explain it clearly."

Deng Jian then turned around and waited for you to ask what was going on.

He looked angry and said in a bad tone: "You are so embarrassed to ask, it's okay if you are a good editor and train military soldiers. You are not afraid of being laughed at! This is your business, but... why did you humiliate a gentleman so much that you even let scholars be Qiu Ba? Although this Tongsheng has no fame, he has also read the Book of Sages. You are good..."

In fact, Ye Chunqiu was mentally prepared for being criticized, but he didn't expect that things would be so serious that he actually exaggerated to the point of being humiliating.

Ye Chunqiu frowned and said, "Are you really friends?"

Deng Jian snorted coldly without hesitation: "Of course, I keep my word, okay, the words have come to this point, say goodbye."

"Let's go." Ye Chunqiu called him again.

Deng Jian was actually a little reluctant to leave. No matter what, Ye Chunqiu was not bad to him. He just hoped to use the robe to cut off his robe and force Ye Chunqiu to return to his lost path. Now when he heard Ye Chunqiu say, he breathed a sigh of relief, waiting for Ye Chunqiu's subsequent sincere regret, and he returned to his lost path.

Ye Chunqiu lowered his voice and said, "This Tongsheng joins the army and joins the army. There seems to be nothing wrong with it, let alone... many people have no place to go and do what's wrong with asking them to serve the country?"

Deng Jian was stunned for a moment, and then furious: "What's wrong with it? A great scholar, following you to dance with swords and guns, and scholars join the army, that should be a plan and win a thousand miles away. After reading the books of sages, he went to play with guns and sticks and became a pawn. You... you have the nerve to say."

"But the people have been recruited, do you have to rush back?" Ye Chunqiu spread his hands and looked helpless.

"Hmph, in short, it's better to rush back than this. Don't you know how to talk about you outside? Now you are saying that you are not doing your job properly and seek credit and favor. Think about it, if you have such a reputation, how will you... be good in the future..."

Ye Chunqiu could feel Deng Jian's anger, but he could also read the kindness he wanted to him in Deng Jian's words. He smiled knowingly, and then said, "Actually, there is one thing that I forgot to say."

Deng Jian's thick eyebrows pressed down: "What's the matter?"

Ye Chunqiu approached and whispered a few words in his ear.
