The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 305
With more than 500 million taels of silver in hand, Jiang Chuan has enough confidence to recruit soldiers.

Of course, he does not plan to operate the more than 100 shops in hand, but intends to sell all of these shops through bidding.

The targets are these shops, and the targets of the bidding are naturally those businessmen in Datong City.

Those businessmen have initially established a good cooperative relationship with Jiang Chuan.They found that it is very beneficial to cooperate with this young Marquis. For one thing, this man does not have the idea of ​​emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business like those in power in the past dynasties, but he values ​​businessmen quite a lot.Secondly, the tax rate levied on businessmen is not high, and he has a clear attitude towards protecting the legitimate interests of businessmen.

This is the obvious reason.

Of course, the more important and deeper reason is that among these businessmen there are many people with keen eyesight and long-term vision.

They naturally understand what the world is like today.The troubled times have come, and the princes with soldiers in their hands have become the most important investment objects.

The future master of the world will inevitably be born among these princes.Even if the situation of great unification does not appear at that time, but a situation of separation and rule of various countries appears, then these princes will also be the lords of a country in the future.

Making friends with them now and losing appropriate benefits is for greater and longer-term benefits in the future.

Anyone who can become a big businessman has naturally heard the stories of Fan Li and Lu Buwei.In the hearts of many businessmen, these two are the highest goals of businessmen, their idols and role models.

And Jiangchuan is undoubtedly one of the targets of investment by these Datong businessmen, and it is a major target.Maybe they will invest in Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and other princes in the future.

This is a normal phenomenon. Anyone who trades in stocks knows the truth of spreading risks and not putting all eggs in the same basket.

Businessmen understand this truth, and Jiang Chuan understands this truth even more.

He offered these shops to these businessmen through bidding, in order to repay the investment of these businessmen, and let them see that investing in themselves is absolutely profitable.Not only long-term benefits, but also immediate real benefits.

These shops are all mature shops that have been run for many years by those who were cleared out by Jiang Chuan.This is still on the bright side, and there are related import and export channels and customer resources that extend behind it. These are the most valuable things.

Although with the collapse of the Qing Dynasty, many of the resources can no longer be used.But the remaining value is still supposed to be objective.

Although Jiang Chuan understands this truth, he doesn't understand business and is not good at it.More importantly, he has no extra energy to handle these things.

Instead of doing it yourself, it is better to leave these shops to professional people.

Jiang Chuan wrote a letter to Bai Jinxiu, asking her to spread the news and see the reactions of the merchants.If the merchants are interested, they can even send troops to escort them to Quang Ninh to see for themselves.

At the same time, Jiang Chuan also wrote a letter to Liu Ji, asking him to seal up the shops of those who were cleared out in Liaoyang, and to start a cleanup operation in Liaoyang.

Liu Ji looks conservative and stable, but in fact he is also a staunch Han nationalist. He hates these illegal businessmen who treason and seek glory as much as himself, even worse.

At any rate, Jiangchuan also came from a harmonious society of national unity, but for Liu Ji, all the foreign races at this time belonged to the barbarian state.Fornication with barbarians and betrayal of Chinese orthodoxy is a great crime.

Therefore, Jiang Chuan is not worried about the strength of Liu Ji's clean-up operation in Liaoyang.

At the same time, in the letter, Jiang Chuan also explained one thing, that is, the matter of keeping hair and changing clothes.

The cities in eastern Liaodong have been occupied by the Tartars for many years.Under the threat of the Tartars' butcher knives, all the common people were forced to shave off their Han Chinese hair buns, leaving behind the ugly money rat tail.

Now that the three cities in southern Liaoning have been recovered by him, there is no doubt that the Chinese clothes must be restored.

Of course, the hair is shaved so short, it will take a long time to keep it in a bun like before.Hair can grow slowly, but clothes must be changed immediately.

The reason why this matter was not done at the beginning of breaking the city was because there were too many things to do, and secondly, it was because of the instability of the people's hearts, so it has not been started.

Now that Jiang Chuan has just used thunderbolt methods to deal with a large number of wealthy businessmen who served as lackeys for the Tartars, it is the time when his majesty is in full swing.At this time, it is just right to announce that she will keep her hair and change clothes.

In the letter, Jiang Chuan asked Liu Ji to seize the opportunity to announce that he would keep his hair and change clothes.

After sending out the letters to Bai Jinxiu and Liu Ji, Jiang Chuan asked Sima Muyi of the Chinese Army to draft two orders.

The first is the conscription order: no matter in the city or in the countryside, all young and healthy men between the ages of sixteen and thirty, without disabilities, and of normal mind can sign up to join the army.

Those who successfully enlisted in the army will be issued an honorary military card by the government and hung on the door of their house, and the whole family will be exempted from corvee service for one year, and various taxes will be reduced by half every year.

Moreover, those who enlist in the army are paid one or two or five renminbi a month per person, with full board and lodging.If there is military merit, there will be other rewards, and the rank will be awarded according to military merit.

This trick was actually learned by Jiang Chuan from Shang Yang.

In the past, Shang Yang reformed and implemented reward farming wars in Qin State.Anyone who has made military achievements or cultivated well can be awarded the title of title.

It is precisely because of this that everyone in Qin State at that time was warlike, everyone yearned for war, and everyone on the battlefield scrambled to be the first. This made it step by step from a poor and barbarian country that lived in a corner and was despised and despised by the six Kanto countries. The strongest Warring States will eventually unify Liuhe.

而当时秦国的爵位总共有二十级之多：1公士；2.上造；3.僭枭；4.不更；5大夫；6.官大夫；7.公大夫；8.公乘；9.五大夫；10.左庶长；11.右庶长；12.左更；13.中更；14.右更；15.少上造；16.大上造；17.驷车庶长；18.大庶长；19.关内侯；20.彻侯。

这二十个爵位中，1到4相当于士；5到9相当于大夫；10到18相当于卿；最后两级相当于诸侯。

From Jiang Chuan's point of view, the titles of these titles are weird and complicated, making it difficult to understand.

So Jiang Chuan decided to use the military rank system of the modern army as a blueprint, and combine some realities to formulate a military rank system that is more suitable for this time and space.

When the time comes to commend soldiers for their military merits, they can be awarded corresponding military ranks according to their military merits.

There are corresponding benefits and corresponding positions behind each level of military rank.

The military rank system is a complex system, and it cannot be decided by patting the head.Jiang Chuan intends to draw up a framework first, and then discuss it with Liu Ji and Hu Zongxian before formally promulgating it.

　The first update arrives, and there are more updates.Thanks to "Zhutuan" for the five hundred rewards.
