The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

"Your Majesty, do we need to respond to this?" Li Zhenhua asked.

"Reaction, of course! But not to the natives and Spanish, but to ourselves!

From now on, each army will begin to recruit and expand its troops, recruiting young people of appropriate age from local residents to join the army, with no limit on the number. "

Zhu Heyi had no intention of participating in the battle between the natives and the Spanish. As far as the Ming Dynasty was concerned, both the Spanish and the rebellious natives were enemies.

Since they are all enemies, the more deaths, the better.

For now, there are still too many indigenous people in the entire Philippines. Although it does need these indigenous people as labor, once there are too many indigenous people, it may have an impact on the future social environment.

Now it happens that the fighting between the Spaniards and the natives can consume part of it.

In addition, in terms of recruitment, Zhu Heyi has no plans to recruit ordinary soldiers in the military camp for the time being, except for special arms.

Using the current first-level military camps to recruit soldiers cost a lot of money, but they also had to retrain them. It was not cost-effective.

He also has to keep more silver coins in case he can buy high-value products in the Miracle Market.

"It's Your Majesty."

……

Soon, recruitment notices were plastered all over Manila.

At the same time, notices for recruiting internal officials (palace maids) and administrative officers were also posted.

The recruitment of internal officers was proposed by Zhu Heyi. He had been talking about finding a maid for Her Royal Highness Princess Ming Dynasty before, but it had been postponed until now. This time, it happened to be posted at the same time as the recruitment notice was posted.

The political officer was proposed by Xu Jingming. Since Zhu Heyi entrusted the entire political affairs of Manila to him, Xu Jingming was extremely busy every day.

After doing it for so long, the old man finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he planned to recruit a group of political affairs officers to assist in handling the government affairs of Manila City.

……

"There's a notice posted in front. Come on, hurry up and take a look!"

As soon as pedestrians on the street heard that there was a new notice from the imperial court, they all rushed to where the notice was posted.Within a few minutes, the places where the notices were posted were already crowded with people.

"Look! His Majesty is recruiting troops! The sound of the moon is worth 4 taels of silver!" A young man in the crowd said, pointing to a notice.

"Erlang, although we are illiterate, please don't lie to us. It's four taels of silver! Those big soldiers of the Qing army with braids only have 1 tael and 5 taels of silver. You think your majesty's money comes from the strong wind." !”

"That's right, Zhang Erlang, please tell us the real monthly salary."

The crowd of onlookers obviously did not believe the young man's military pay of four taels.

After all, the monthly salary of the Ming army was one or two taels of silver, and the current Qing army's monthly salary was one or two taels of silver. The monthly salary of [-] taels of silver given by Zhu Heyi was already two or three times as much as the two.

Seeing that no one believed in him, the young man felt a little anxious and blushed for a moment. Fortunately, he was not the only literate person in the crowd. A middle-aged man stood up and said.

"Please be patient, this young man did not lie to you. The monthly salary mentioned in this notice is indeed four taels of silver."

"Isn't this the shopkeeper Wang of Xinyue Zhai?" Someone recognized the middle-aged man who spoke.

"It's really Shopkeeper Wang!"

"Can it be said that the monthly salary of this soldier is really four taels of silver!"

Because the person who spoke this time had a certain influence, the crowd of people watching gradually began to believe him.

After a while, someone asked loudly.

"Erlang, does this notice say there are any requirements for becoming a soldier? And where can I sign up?"

"Yes, please tell me more."

Obviously, they are already attracted by the extremely high military salary of four taels of silver per month.

The young man saw that the people around him had already believed it, and he didn't care that everyone had misunderstood him before. He glanced at the notice and said.

"We only require able-bodied males between the ages of 16 and 28 to register until tomorrow. The notice states that the military will set up multiple registration points in the city."

"We have to wait until tomorrow!" A middle-aged man shook his head and sighed.

"Man from the Ma family, don't wait until tomorrow. You won't be able to do it the day after tomorrow. You are already in your forties, and His Majesty only wants young men between 16 and 28 years old." People around him teased.

"Hey, can I come over and join in the fun?" the middle-aged man replied angrily.

"Erlang, aren't there two notices next to this? What do those two notices say?" Someone asked again at this time.

Zhang Erlang looked at it and responded: "This is the notice that Your Majesty wants to recruit internal officers, but as long as women do not want eunuchs. The other one is Governor Xu's notice to recruit political officers."

As soon as Zhang Erlang finished speaking, many people's eyes lit up in the crowd below.

"Internal officer!"

They all know that His Majesty is young and vigorous now, but there are no women around His Majesty.

If you take this opportunity to send your daughter to the palace, then the moon will come first, and if your majesty catches your eye one day, she will really turn into a phoenix and soar into the sky!

Although given their family status, they would naturally not dare to think about the position of queen, but the position of imperial concubine can still be given a try.

The imperial concubine is also His Majesty's woman. Once his daughter becomes the imperial concubine, won't they become relatives of the emperor?

"I suddenly remembered that there was something else going on at home, so I left first."

"My sow is about to give birth. I have to go back and take a look."

"My son is getting married today, and I will leave first."

"It's getting late. I have to go home to nurse the baby. Let's go."

……

Due to various reasons, most of the crowd that was originally gathered was reduced by half in an instant.

Those who remained were beating their chests and lamenting why there were no women of the right age in their families!

But soon they suddenly remembered that there were indeed no women of the right age in their families, but what about their relatives and friends?

Although once a daughter from a relative's family is selected, their own family will definitely benefit the most, but as relatives and friends, they can still drink the soup anyway.

As a result, the remaining group of people also left in a few breaths, leaving only the young man standing there with a confused look on his face.

"What happened??"...

I'm afraid Xu Jingming never thought that his journey of recruiting political officers would become so difficult because Zhu Heyi wanted to find some maids for Zhu Zhaoyu.
