lied to Kangxi

Chapter 969
What Yuzhu didn't expect was that the recruits who were expected to be recruited in three months were full after only one month.

Not only that, but there were also many strong and strong men who came here admiringly from Shandong and Henan, and blocked the entrance of Daying.

"Xiao Lu, the military salary is still too high!" Yu Zhu was very happy, but also very helpless.

Lu Wu smiled and said: "Shan Zhang, there are so many people outside, but they are all good materials for auxiliary soldiers! Your old man once said that soldiers should be paid as high as possible, and when the auxiliary soldiers are full, they can give at most two coins. That's it."

"That's right, the elites from Shandong and Henan love high wages the most. As long as we leave a gap in the door to become soldiers, we don't have to worry about them not actively dedicating their youth and sweat." Yuzhu said With a cigar in his mouth, there was a sly look in his eyes.

In the northern region of the Qing Dynasty, as long as there was an errand related to the yamen, it was acceptable to pay little or no money.

The premise is to leave them with the hope of becoming official servants.

Why?The economic situation in the northern region is generally not as good as that in the Jiangnan region. As long as you do some errands with the yamen, you can earn a lot of gray income.

The errands in the yamen seem to be low-level slaves, but in fact, as long as they don't make fatal mistakes, they basically become hereditary good business.

Many untold secrets are also passed down from father to son, from son to grandson, from generation to generation.

Why do you have a stable income, even the grassroots will settle accounts, how can you not flock to it?

The level of Yuzhu's new army is much higher than that of the county government, state government and government government, and there is no way to compare them.

After explaining the truth clearly, following Yuzhu's order, the big men from Shandong and Henan who were crowded outside the camp gate were recruited into the barracks in the name of auxiliary soldiers.

A soldier's monthly salary is ten taels, and an auxiliary soldier's monthly salary is one tael, the gap is extremely huge.However, the food and lodging of the auxiliary soldiers does not cost money, nor does the military uniform cost money.

Every year, after rigorous evaluation, 3% of the auxiliary soldiers will join the ranks of combat soldiers.

In fact, this is a conspiracy set by Yuzhu.

The expense of 1000 soldiers is really too high, more than [-] million taels of silver a year.

The so-called auxiliary soldiers are actually no different from combat soldiers, but the military pay is ten times less.

Don't ask, just ask, who told you to come late?

The commander-in-chief is kind enough to allow you to serve as soldiers and eat food, which is considered extraordinarily merciful!
Take a look at the disaster areas on both sides of the Yellow River. How many disaster victims are poorly clothed, full and hungry?
Lu Wu knew in his heart that just judging from the situation of robbing heads outside the camp gate, the expenditure of 800 new troops was only more than [-] million taels of silver a year.

Instead, the officers privately thought it was more than 3000 million taels of silver.

There is definitely no way to save the officers' salaries, weapons and equipment, and the daily expenses of raising soldiers.However, the military pay of [-] soldiers is much less!
It saves more than 1000 million taels a year, and more than 1 million taels in ten years, which is already a considerable amount.

Dashuai, he is really tall in Gaojiazhuang!

The consequence of the rapid recruitment of the 6000 new army is that the [-] members of the old new army, everyone is promoted, and everyone leads troops, the youngest is a platoon leader.

Choice must be greater than talent, this is the iron law!
As long as you follow the right people, you will have the great hope of Wudingshi!

If Kang Mazi was still in power, such a huge cost of raising troops would definitely be helpless.

However, Yuzhu's insight far surpassed that of the old emperor.

Can colonize Nanyang!
One hundred thousand new troops seems to be a lot. Similar to the Philippine Islands, Indonesian Islands, and Indochina Peninsula, there are hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in each colonial settlement. Not only are they not many, but they are too few.

After the cake grows bigger, the cost of Yuzhu raising soldiers can be almost ignored!
Otherwise, relying on only 4000 to [-] million taels of government revenue would not be able to support such a huge new army.

One hundred thousand troops gathered at Dagukou. How could such a big movement be hidden from those who are interested?

Tong Aman, Tong Mang's notoriety spread widely, and immediately spread throughout the capital.

Yuzhu doesn't care about these things, he just does what he should do.

A man who dares to act and act boldly, Nima, you have already raised soldiers, so are you afraid of what others will say?
The expansion of the army by [-] will definitely greatly stimulate those masters in the northwest.

Hehe, if you don't raise the flag to clear the king's side, it will be too late!

A few days later, Zhang Tingyu came.

Since Zhang Tingyu took refuge in Yuzhu's sect, he has faithfully passed on various news secretly.

Unlike Ma Qi, Zhang Tingyu's thoughts were extremely meticulous, and the accuracy of the information he delivered was astonishingly high.

In fact, Yuzhu also trusted Zhang Tingyu.

Unless it is a disaster of genocide, a well-educated and insightful person like Zhang Tingyu, once he changes his family, will never be a second-five boy again.

Erwuzi, is it so easy to be a boy?
Hong Chengchou surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and in the end, wasn't he also nailed to the pillar of shame in "The Biography of Two Officials" by Qianlong?

Qian Qianyi thought the water was too cold, so he took the initiative to shave his head, knelt down and surrendered to Ta Qing, but Ta Qing didn't reuse him.

The big traitor Fan Wencheng was highly valued by Huang Taiji, but his new wife was snatched away by Duoduo and played with him for three months.

"Heng Chen, I haven't seen you for a while, I miss you." Yu Zhu raised her hand and gave up her seat with a smile.

Zhang Tingyu was very familiar with Yuzhu's temper, so he sat down on the chair unceremoniously.

For so many years, Zhang Tingyu has served Kang Mazi and Yuzhu successively.

Kang Mazi's personality was lenient on the outside and taboo on the inside, he said he had no doubts in his mouth, but he was extremely suspicious in his heart, so he was very difficult to serve.

Yuzhu, while daring to employ people, is more inclined to trust the balance of the system.

In other words, while reusing you, there must be a force that can restrain you, and it is done in the open.

To be honest, Zhang Tingyu prefers an upright lord like Yuzhu.

In a society ruled by imperial power, what the ministers are most worried about is the change of orders from day to day because the lord is too fickle.

It is Yuzhu's habit to talk about the ugliness first, to clearly define the scope of power, to determine the supervision system, and then to perform tasks according to their talents.

This so-called, the suspect should use it!

What kind of person is Zhang Tingyu?

He knows better than anyone else, how can there be a monarch who does not doubt his subjects?

Instead of randomly suspecting each other, it is better to simply rely on the system to suppress the misjudgment caused by speculation to the lowest point.

"My lord, I came here this time to obey the orders of my mother, the empress dowager." Zhang Tingyu opened his mouth and explained the purpose of his visit.

Yuzhu smiled slightly, he and his aunt had already discussed it.

If he really wanted to go to Beijing, my aunt would directly send Zhang Tingyu to invite him back in person.

Zhang Tingyu is not only handy in doing such a big event, but also doesn't need to worry about leaking secrets at all.

"Hengchen, the reputation in Beijing is not good, right?" Yuzhu deliberately teased Zhang Tingyu.

Zhang Tingyu didn't dare to talk nonsense, bowed his waist and said: "To tell you the truth, there are indeed some objections in Beijing, but it's nothing to worry about!"

Even though Yu Zhu was not in the capital, but with Wu Sidao and Sun Chengyun, the two door gods, who were staring at every move in the capital, who would dare to make a mistake?

"Hengchen, do you think it's appropriate for me to return to Beijing at this time?" Yuzhu trusted Zhang Tingyu's ability very much.

Zhang Tingyu said without hesitation: "Returning to the Lord, I think that it is not suitable to enter Beijing at this time. If the 30 new troops have trained, it will not be too late to enter Beijing."

Yuzhu smiled dumbly, good guy, the rumors are really powerful, he only trained 30 soldiers, and he dared to spread [-] in Beijing.

A mere Dagukou, a square inch of land, raises 30 soldiers, isn't this nonsense?
However, people in the capital these days believe in rumors the most.

Is there no wind in the hole?

As it turns out, rumors often turn out to be true in the end.

Believe it or not!

"Well, that's my plan too. There's no need to be impatient about going to Beijing." Yuzhu accepted Zhang Tingyu's suggestion, and simply stayed in Dagukou, training [-] elite soldiers first.

It is not easy for Zhang Tingyu to go out of Beijing, so Yuzhu simply keeps him in the guest house.

In the early morning of the second day, Yuzhu's cubs jogged in the morning, awakening Zhang Tingyu from his sleep.

Zhang Tingyu put on his clothes and got out of bed, and came out to have a look.

Hey, good guy, Yuzhu is standing in the yard with his hands behind his back, staring at the little elder brothers running.

Zhang Tingyu opened his mouth slightly, watching with concentration, relaxed and happy, and his heart fluttered.

Since ancient times, the history of the family that turned the family into a country, because they did not manage their children well, led to the death of the second generation, has never ceased in history.

Among them, the most famous example is Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty.

It is clearly written in the history books that under the rule of Emperor Wen, the world was peaceful, the grassroots lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the grain in the country warehouse was too much to eat!
However, Yang Jian did not educate his sons well, which led to being taken advantage of by Yang Guang.

In an instant, the Yang family was wiped out and turned into a stepping stone for the Li family in Guanlong.

Jiushi fell down, but no one came to help him.

I saw that the little guy got up automatically without saying a word, stepped on his short legs, and continued to keep up with the big running team.

Zhang Tingyu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally, he couldn't help smiling.

Jade can't be cut, it can't be used as a weapon!

The most fearful thing about taking refuge in the lord is that there will be no successors!

Now, after seeing Yuzhu put so much effort into shaping the next generation, why is Zhang Tingyu not at ease?
During breakfast, Yuzhu took Zhang Tingyu to meet Alice and Xuewei formally.

The family is good, but that's all.

Yuzhu didn't say anything, Zhang Tingyu had already understood it, and he was already concerned.

These days, Jane is more precious than anything else in the emperor's heart.

Although the treatment was top-notch, how could Zhang Tingyu dare to make a mistake in front of Yuzhu's family?
By the time the meal was over, Zhang Tingyu was only a third full.

After seeing off Zhang Tingyu, more than [-] foreign ships arrived at Dagukou Wharf.

However, these foreign ships were not loaded with arms or commodity goods, but cheap food bought from Nanyang.

Foreign merchants are actually not happy to sell grain.

Because the profit of food is low, and it occupies a lot of space.

However, Yuzhu paid a high price and subsidized the freight, and the foreign merchants reluctantly shipped the grain because of the benefits of long-term cooperation.

If you offend Yuzhu, the huge domestic consumer market of the Qing Dynasty, as well as the urgently needed porcelain, tea and silk in Europe, will be goodbye from now on!

PS: It’s been ten days in a row, with [-] words updated every day. For Xiao Zhuzi, it’s really hardworking. Let me reward you with a few tickets for encouragement. I beg you!
