"Then I don't know how many soldiers the Marquis wants to recruit?"

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man named Ye Jin, with a square face, a shirt with big sleeves, a bodice with a broad belt, and a cage crown on his head, with a rather refined charm.He always has a faint smile on his face, giving people a good impression, and he sits on the top of the happy table.

Gao Changgong and Gao Xing looked at each other, and replied: "I have carefully calculated that only [-] soldiers and [-] civilian husbands are in hand to keep Xuyi safe."

"Sixty thousand!"

Everyone looked at Gao Changgong in surprise and started whispering to each other.[-], food and supplies are not a small amount.

"Master Hou knows that the imperial court is not allowed to recruit soldiers privately." Ye Jin, who was happy to take the lead, frowned slightly and said.

Gao Changgong took a careful look at him, and said: "Of course, I am clear about recruiting soldiers privately and agreeing to rebel. My plan is to supplement the original [-] soldiers, and then recruit [-] soldiers from the refugees who went north. The brave warriors are the backup, and my son is happy to train them a little bit. First, they can help us defend the city, and second, they can solve the problem of too many refugees. After the crisis is over, they will be dismissed."

At this time, Gao Xing stood up, first clasped his fists to everyone, and then said: "Uncles, the Japanese are pressing on every step of the way, attacking the city and pulling out the stronghold, like a broken bamboo. The refugees who fled north flocked into Xuyi City It is also increasing day by day. They are our flesh and blood compatriots, the people under the rule of the Holy One, how can we abandon them and ignore them?"

Gao Xing looked at everyone with burning eyes, and then said in a deep voice: "However, the treasury is empty, and my father is powerless. The soldiers have no pay for three months, and there is a possibility of mutiny at any time! My father sleeps and eats every day, and dare not There is no slack in the slightest, for fear that the refugees will cause trouble. But these problems are imminent, and if they are not resolved, it will definitely lead to catastrophe!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, Gao Changgong stood up straight, bowed again and said: "Everyone, the safety of Xuyi depends entirely on your hands, Gao Changgong is begging you here!"

"I beg you, if you have money, you will pay for it, and if you have food, you will pay for it. My father will definitely report your achievements to the emperor, and what you have done will surely be a good deed for your descendants, so that all people will admire and praise you!" Gao Xing also bowed and begged at the same time, The words were sincere, and the voice was slightly choked.

Everyone was helpless, looked at each other and agreed to Gao Xing's father and son's request.They knew it well, and now that the war had not yet reached Xuyi, the father and son could still ask each other kindly, and they were very courteous.Once the war really comes to Xuyi, I am afraid that all the assets of myself and others will be lost.

The next step is to discuss how much each person will contribute. What makes the ten people very depressed is that Gao Xing resolutely does not want coins, except for a small amount of gold and silver, only rice, chestnuts, cloth and other real objects.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, wars continued, dynasties alternated frequently, and the economy was chaotic and declining.The ruler minted new money for the purpose of exploiting the people, coupled with the flood of private money among the people, this caused a large amount of depreciation of coins and economic decline.Many times, transactions between people were barter, or real money was used.

Now that the war is approaching, the most important thing is supplies. Coins are just a symbol, and in many cases, no amount of money will work.Gao Xing knew this very well, so he resolutely refused coins.

When everything was settled, seeing the depressed and heartbroken expressions of the ten exploited people, the happy father and son looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.

This was something the two of them had discussed that night.People live in this world, no matter how lofty or sacred their pursuits are, they must eat.In this era of frequent wars, those who join the army are more likely to make a living, and those salaries subsidize their families.As for being loyal to the emperor and loving the country, it is empty talk to those of them who have no clothes and no food to eat.Based on this, Gao Xing and Gao Changgong made this plan to raise money.

Gao Xing coughed, and then said gratefully: "Uncles, you are Xuyi's benefactors, and you are also the boy's benefactors. I am very happy and grateful." He saluted humbly, then changed the topic, and said with a smile: "Boy Knowing that you have donated so much family wealth for nothing, you must have some complaints in your heart."

"No, Mr. Gao is too worried. It is our responsibility to protect Xuyi together." Zhang Cha quickly waved his hand in denial.

"Peace in Xuyi is our common wish, and we have no complaints."

"Boss Zhang said so."

Everyone smiled and denied it.

When Gao Xing raised his hand, everyone fell silent and looked at him puzzled.A gentle smile appeared on Gao Xing's face, and he said slowly: "Your money is not from heaven, but from hard work. It is human nature to have some complaints in your heart when you are asked to fund the recruitment of soldiers. My father and I understand We are grateful to all of you for your generosity, but also ashamed of being the master of Xuyi."

"Mr. Gao is serious. The reputation of Lord Hou for being generous, benevolent, and brave and good at fighting has long been heard. We still want to thank Lord Hou for giving us the opportunity to defend Xuyi together. How can we complain?" Ye Jin said.

Looking at him with a happy smile, he said: "Uncle Ye is loyal and benevolent, and I admire him. But I still feel a little bit sorry, and I want to make up for you uncles."

"Oh? I would like to hear more about it!" Ye Jin looked happily, her face unchanged.

The other nine people were all a little surprised and excited, looking happy. Businessmen are chasing profits, and if they are compensated, they will feel more at ease.

Looking at Ye Jin with a happy smile, he said, "Boy, I have some business to make a fortune. I want to cooperate with you uncles. I wonder if you guys are interested?"

"How to cooperate? What business?" Ye Jin asked calmly.

Gao Xing shook his head lightly, and then said lightly: "What kind of business, please let the kid shut you first, but I guarantee that it is definitely a serious and profitable business." I want to do it myself, but unfortunately I don’t have enough funds, so I can only choose to cooperate with others. As for the method of cooperation, the way is mine, and the issue of funds depends on you, and we can share the benefits [-]-[-].”

Everyone was stunned and a little annoyed, what kind of thing is this?It's just such a simple few words to talk about cooperation, but also divide [-]% of the interests, which is obviously not sincere, more like asking for money.Just now when Gao Xing's father and son slapped him hard, everyone was very upset. Now Xing Xing asked for money so bluntly, which made everyone even more resentful.But due to Gao Changgong's identity, they didn't dare to show it on the spot.

Among the ten people, there was only one person whose expression did not change at all, and that was Ye Jin.He stared closely at the happy face, and asked calmly: "Then how much money does Mr. Gao need to operate his business?"

"2 taels." Gao Xing also looked at him calmly, and slowly stretched out two fingers.When everyone was confused, they heard Gao Xing spit out two words slowly, "Gold!"

"Hiss," everyone stared round, looking happy in shock.

Including Gao Changgong looked at the happy with a little surprise, thinking: "Xing'er's heart is too dark."

Ye Jin's eyes suddenly opened, there was a flash of light in his pupils, and then they disappeared quickly, regaining his composure.He smiled faintly, and said: "2 taels of gold, that's more than half of Ye Mou's assets, it seems that Mr. Gao has a big business to do!"

Gao Xing smiled noncommittally, looked around at the crowd, and said, "I wonder if all of you uncles are willing to help me? I can assure you, what you pay today will be doubled in the future."

Everyone looked at each other, with doubts, excitement, and helplessness in their eyes.

After a while, Zhang Cha took the lead and said, "Master Gao, this old man is old and can't stand it anymore. This old man contributed 1000 taels of silver, so it's a gift to congratulate Mr. Gao on his prosperous business and wealth!"

"I'll pay you 800 taels of silver, I wish Mr. Gao every success!"

"I gave 500 taels."

……

"Ye is willing to cooperate with Mr. Gao and contribute 2 taels of gold." Ye Jin's calm voice sounded.

The living room was instantly quiet, and a needle could be heard.Everyone looked at Ye Jin in disbelief, but the latter still insisted on me, with a faint smile on his face, quietly looking happy.

Gao Xing was also looking at him, with a little surprise in his eyes, and a slightly sneering smile on his face that hadn't faded away.

"Okay, then Uncle Ye, happy cooperation." Gao Xing laughed and raised his palms, Ye Jin smiled and high-fived with him, and the cooperation was finalized.

So far, Gao Changgong's purpose of inviting Zhang Cha and ten people to come here has been achieved.Gao Changgong was about to leave everyone for dinner, except for Ye Jin, everyone else hurriedly shirked their family affairs, said to invite Gao Changgong and his son back, and left in a hurry.Just a joke, after only a while, the father and son knocked out a sum of money, and if they had another meal, wouldn't they vomit blood?

After dinner, Gao Changgong went to the military camp, and if he was happy, he invited Ye Jin to his room to discuss matters.An hour later, Ye Jin walked out of the Neishi mansion excitedly with a face full of shock and excitement, feeling like a dream, and the happy sentence "Ten years later, we will be the richest people in the whole world" people."

After seeing Ye Jin off, Gao Xing changed into a tight-fitting Hu suit, led the horse, left the house, and went straight to the barracks.Sitting on the horse, happy and smiling, excited, he is really excited.Living without money is extremely painful, and now everything is resolved.

If you want to make the horse run, you have to feed the horse.

That night, I was happy to have a deep talk with Gao Changgong, and I borrowed money from my father to improve the living standards of the soldiers and distribute food and salaries. Only in this way can the soldiers be convinced and train hard.

Gao Changgong is not only the guarding general, but also the internal history of a county. There is no money and food in the treasury that can be "squandered" at will.Therefore, Gao Xing came up with such an idea and reached out to those wealthy businessmen.

When Gao Xing came to the barracks, it was almost noon.

With the stimulation of wine and meat, and the continuous sitting system, the soldiers trained quite hard.However, in just two days, the queue has been quite effective, and the views of observing discipline and obeying orders are slowly seeping into their hearts.

Gao Xing just observed in the dark for a while, then left quietly.

Walking on the street, looking at the smoke curling up from the kitchen, the innocent smiles of the children are extraordinarily peaceful.Sighing happily, he said: "Wei Pohu is almost at Shiliang, he should show those boys a little bit."

Suddenly, a piercing voice sounded, and I couldn't help frowning happily to follow the sound.

"Little beast, where are you running! Catch him and beat him to death!" A piercing voice like a duck sounded, completely destroying the harmonious and peaceful atmosphere.
