308 When the plan is in progress
In the end, after discussing the gains and losses countless times with Tan Songyun and other members of the secretarial team, Li Tianyang resolutely issued these two orders.
In the meantime, in order to appease Chen Yumo and do her ideological work, Li Tianyang also deliberately went back to Bengang to live for half a month, and took Mrs. Wu, Sanniang and Yumo to play around Bengang.
For most of the year, although there was only a more than a day's voyage between Bengang and Jilong Harbor, but because of the relationship between the Dutch, Li Tianyang was not able to go home and live with the old lady for a period of time, the old lady, including Yumo, naturally had a lot of complaints, this time Li Tianyang was inevitably nagged by the old lady Wu, this is all later, but in the end, Li Tianyang's purpose was still completed, Yumo finally reluctantly accepted Li Tianyang's explanation, and fully operated financial resources behind the scenes to escort his plan.
However, because of this, the villagers of Bengang and Jilonggang have benefited, and the equipment of tens of thousands of clothes and pants will definitely not be completed in a short period of time only by relying on the workshops of Bengang and Jilonggang, so under Li Tianyang's suggestion, Yumo and his administrative staff, together with the members of the neighborhood committee, will package the raw materials and distribute them to the villagers under the jurisdiction of the neighborhood committee, and they will work on behalf of them, which can not only make the villagers earn a little extra money, but also speed up the progress of Li Tianyang's assembly.
Of course, as a result, the cost of the team is naturally larger, but the so-called fertilizer does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and the villagers in the two towns are cheaper, which is equivalent to open source in disguise.
According to the plan, when the recruits have been training for half a year, as they leave the division, a complete set of corresponding standard equipment will be delivered to each soldier.
The equipment is as follows: two sets of long-sleeved tops, two tank tops underneath, two trousers, two underpants, two leather belts, two pairs of cloth shoes and a set of leggings.
After considering the production capacity of the entire team, it was decided to use a standard Tang knife and a pair of spears, as for long-range bows and crossbows, because of the limited production capacity, they could only use the previous mixed bows and crossbows, and then replace them in batches when conditions permitted.
Coupled with the second item of Li Tianyang's plan, the problem of the musket regiment, the remaining 1,000 arquebuses, after Yumo and the members of the accounting office carefully calculated, the entire plan Li Tianyang and them needed to spend at least 100,000 taels of silver.
Finally, the small 100,000 taels of silver earned by He Yong and Changsheng's two ocean-going fleet runners last time ago were only 30,000 taels of silver left after filling the deficit and reconstruction of Bengang and Jilong Harbor, which could only meet 1/3 of the budget requirements.
"It doesn't matter, anyway, there are still many months before the completion of the recruit training, we can first use the money to find a few shopkeepers to buy back the raw materials we need, and then deliver them to the villagers to make them." Li Tianyang has already come up with an emergency solution, and in the face of Yumo's flying pigeon biography, he gave a solution: "The villagers' wages, you can first issue them an IOU, press the seal, and promise that they can come to us to cash in when we are financially rich." ”
"If the villagers are really short of money, and they need it in a hurry, we can also pay for the same value of goods to exchange for them."
Having said that, Yumo also saw that Li Tianyang was determined to complete this matter, so she didn't bother with it anymore, according to the method given by Li Tianyang, and then discussed with her think tanks for a long time, and simply issued a set of banknotes that could only be used in Bengang.
As early as the time of the Great Song Dynasty, Jiaozi, an ancient banknote, has been born, but with the changes of the times, this convenient currency has gone through the Jin Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, and there are traces of it, but in the Ming Dynasty, it was destroyed in one fell swoop.
A great Ming treasure banknote reduced the trust of the entire dynasty among the common people and merchants to almost nothing. Until now, during the Apocalypse, although there are still traces of treasure money, its value has depreciated # to an outrageous point.
The Ming people who moved from the Ming Dynasty, in the face of the small denomination banknotes issued by Bengang Yumo, it would definitely be a lie to say that they did not have a little worry in their hearts. But when Yumo gave a death order and asked Qixintang to fully cash out the value of the team represented by the banknote, many villagers hesitated to use it a few times, and then reluctantly accepted this newborn banknote.
Of course, in order for me to avoid a run on the currency, Qixintang temporarily uses the planned supply system in terms of supply, because of the shortage of funds and the lack of materials, each household can exchange no more than one tael of silver per day for banknotes, so as to maintain the basic operation of Qixintang.
On the side of Jilong Port, it is even simpler, with the aftermath of victory, Li Tianyang negotiated with several well-connected firms and owed some funds, and at the same time mobilized with the villagers in Jilong Port, telling them the dilemma that the team is facing now, while cashing out part of the villagers' wages, he also let the Bengang government make a part of the IOU to everyone, so that they can relieve.
In this way, under the circumstances of a thousand difficulties, batches of weapons and equipment with uniform styles and styles were piled up in the warehouses of Jilonggang and Bengang Qixintang.
Seeing that winter was approaching, Changsheng and their Dongwei ocean-going fleet came and went, bringing back a lot of money to solve a lot of dilemmas of lack of money for the team, and the soldiers of this recruit training camp were about to complete their training.
The reason why this recruit training is much longer than the previous batch is that in addition to these ten-day observations to eliminate the hidden spies, the bad habits of the pirates are not so corrected, which is also one of the important reasons.
Hongtang's rules have always been in line with the army, and after the pirates got used to a casual life, they suddenly even had to be controlled by people when they walked and slept, and the resistance brought by this was naturally indispensable.
However, after experiencing the previous incident of pirates gathering to make trouble, Hongtang's instructors paid special attention to the psychological dynamics of the soldiers in the recruit camp, and they were able to react to any unfavorable signs that appeared during the period as soon as possible and deal with them in time.
In addition, the treatment and welfare of Hongtang's team are indeed very different from the previous lives of these pirates, and their relatives have also been properly settled in Bengang and Jilong Harbor, so whether it is for themselves or their families, even if the pirates are for this rare opportunity, they are definitely not willing to easily leave Hongtang's team.
