I really don't want to lose the country

Chapter 16 Buy!how much money to buy

"How? They agreed?"

Seeing Zhang Yi returning, Ye Qing probably knew the answer.

Zhang Yi said: "Your Highness! They all expressed their willingness to join the reception, but they still have to go back and ask the leaders of each meeting for instructions."

The mode of Ye Qing's reception is very simple. The Six Clubs will provide Ye Qing with all kinds of drinks in the world and transport them to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing is providing spirits for the Sixth Meeting.

How much spirits the Six Clubs can take depends on the amount of alcohol they serve.

Not only did they provide Ye Qing with drinks for free, but they also had to pay a lot of money when they took away the spirits.

In this way, Ye Qing can get the raw materials without a single penny, and there is no cost to export.

On the contrary, the more drinks and ingredients Six Club provides, the more he earns.

It's like a white wolf with empty gloves.

But Liuhui can also make a lot of money, and it doesn't suffer.

Naturally, he is also willing to accept it, and will work harder.

To get more, you need to give more.

The dependence on Ye Qing will also increase.

As long as the cooperation is in-depth, Ye Qing can slowly eat up Liuhui.

"That's good. Whoever disagrees, we'll kill him right away. At worst, we'll fight against the three big gangs alone." Ye Qing snorted coldly:

"The three major gangs actually don't want to break faces with us, and they also know the meaning of the emperor sending me to the civil affairs workshop."

"Yes, Your Highness, as long as the sixth society compromises, the three major gangs will not dare to fight with us. Next, we will have time to slowly accumulate strength and grow stronger." Zhang Yi nodded in agreement.

Then he looked worried again: "I'm afraid that our emperor doesn't want to see us live in peace with the three major gangs, and will challenge the three major gangs in advance."

The instigator lying in the palace together.

Ye Qing felt a little bit of resentment.

With the deepening of understanding of the civil affairs workshop and the three major workshops, Ye Qing knew that he was really just a chess piece of that emperor.

And it is a pawn ready to sacrifice.

"Ye Zhen, why did you choose to sacrifice me, because my mother is just a commoner maid."

As his strength grew, Ye Qing became more and more confident.

"So Your Highness, we should try our best to avoid conflicts with the three major gangs during this period, especially the Tiandihui side. We should keep a low profile." Zhang Yi reminded.

Ye Qing said: "Don't worry, Ren Woxing knows how to do it?"

The purpose of the Tiandihui's establishment is not to oppress anyone, but to preserve and guard the territory it has laid down.

After all, the power of the rivers and lakes is just a secret force, and it cannot be on the big stage.

So Ye Qing said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, you can recruit a large number of children from good families to expand the guard to more than 100 people. Just ask what you want. Now we have money and can afford it."

"It's Your Highness!" Zhao Yun said:

"Your Highness! I hope that everyone in the guard can ride a war horse and practice riding first, because this is a very difficult skill to learn and it takes time to get used to it. Moreover, if the guard rides a war horse, once an emergency occurs, it can also be the first Arrive in no time."

"Okay! Then buy it! You need to build the armor and put it on." Ye Qing is not stingy at all with his guards, so he is very generous.

Zhang Yi on the side said: "His Royal Highness, horses generally cost 40 taels of silver, and better war horses cost more than 100 taels. So, the cost of war horses alone costs 1 to [-] taels."

"so much?"

Ye Qing was also a little surprised.

The cost of riding a hundred people is equivalent to the savings of a small gang for many years.

Zhang Yi continued: "Your Highness, this does not include the usual feeding expenses and the usual consumption of the guards.

If each person builds a set of battle armor, the total cost will be around [-]. "

If you are not at home, you do not know that diesel, rice, oil and salt are expensive.

Calculated in this way, raising a hundred-man cavalry team cost tens of thousands of taels of silver at the beginning.

Only then did Ye Qing understand why wars cost money in ancient times.

Only then can I understand why the number of cavalry troops was generally small in ancient times.

I really can't afford it.

After a little thought, Ye Qing said, "Buy it! Buy it for any price."

"The money we earn is used to spend, otherwise what are we doing to gather all this wealth?" Ye Qing said:

"Like Wuxianghui and other gangs, the accumulated wealth is not spent, and it is not used to strengthen our strength. In the end, it is not cheap for us, so money is a bastard, and we are earning when we have nothing. Now the most we need is money, but it is money. manpower."

"Your Highness is right. Zhang Yi didn't think carefully." Zhang Yi replied sincerely.

"Okay, Zhang Yi is in charge of buying the horse." Master Ye waved Zhang Yi away.

At the same time, I also thought about the expansion of the mansion. In short, there were so many and complicated things suddenly that Zhang Yi was suddenly overwhelmed.

Zhang Yi also has to prepare a reception with Liuhui, and is also responsible for the acquisition of horses, and if it is on the stalls to expand the mansion.

I'm afraid I don't have time for other things.

"I hope that next time I can reward some counselors and civil servants!" Ye Qing's eyes revealed expectations.

Since it is an invincible system, it should be able to understand his thoughts.

So Ye Qing didn't call the system out either.

Instead, they turned around in the mansion.

To expand the mansion, he has his own ideas.

Turning around, Ye Jiang picked up half of the blue brick in the corner, and asked a servant who followed:

"Are all the houses in my Dazhou built with this kind of blue bricks?"

"Your Highness, only rich people's houses are built with this kind of blue bricks. The common people's houses are built with rammed earth and walls, and the poorer people outside the city build wooden frames. They don't have any tiles, so they just tie up the bricks. thatch.

In winter, when the cold wind blows in, many people can be frozen to death!"

"Only rich people can use blue bricks, so these bricks are very expensive!" Ye Qing seemed to have discovered a business opportunity.

Red bricks are often used in later generations. Red bricks are easy to fire and strong enough, so they are the first choice for building houses.

It is also a reason for large area use.

So he said to the man: "Go, you are in charge, recruit me masons and kiln craftsmen, the more the better."

The man was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "It's Your Highness, Cao Min will definitely help His Highness with this matter, definitely, definitely!"

Ye Qing shouted, "Wait! There are 50 taels of silver here. Use it as a scene. If you don't believe it, just throw it with money. Even if you throw it, you have to buy it for me Craftsman, understand."

Ye Qing knew that the best craftsmen should be in the Ministry of Industry of Da Zhou.

But he can't use it now, so he can only find some good people from the people. As long as he guides them, these people will definitely be better than those from the Ministry of Industry in the future.

As a descendant, he understands the role of craftsmen too well.

Technology is the primary productive force.

Workers and craftsmen are the way to make the country rich and powerful.

"Your Highness! The carpenter's shop sent someone to deliver the plaque, please check and accept it, Your Highness!"
