Chapter 516 Yan Guozhang(2/2)

When facing his close servants, Yan Keying had to sigh, "When it comes to making money, Zheng is no worse than today's man, but when it comes to his ability to use money, even though today's man spends a lot of money.

, but it is really used on the edge. Look, every time when pay is paid, everyone keeps shouting "Long Live Xie"?

Do you think the soldiers are more loyal to the emperor every time they are paid?"

The family general sighed, "Today's favor to soldiers is indeed unprecedented in the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years. This kind of courage is unparalleled."

Yan Keying shook his head, "The most important thing is that if you see how long live you can keep sprinkling money like this, this is your real skill. A battalion officer can not only get fifty taels of silver per month, but also one hundred and fifty taels of ministerial silver."

, the standard is 250 taels, the alliance is 350 taels, the guard general has 500 taels of silver for one month, and the officers at all levels also have the quota of famous rations.

From the top soldiers to officers at all levels, such generous pay can still be implemented. There is no shortage of pay or food, and even reward for meritorious service. Do you think such an army is scary?"

The general nodded, "There are many people in Husband's camp who want to squeeze in. The elders in Husband's camp all day long dream about entering the war camp to kill the enemy and perform meritorious service. Their biggest dream is to become a camp officer.

The annual salary and rations plus ministerial silver are no less than three thousand taels. If you become a camp officer, you will make a fortune!"

"If you are killed in battle, you will receive fifty taels of silver as a pension. If you are first-class injured, you will get fifteen taels of silver. If you are second-class, you will receive fifteen taels of silver. If you are injured in the third class, you will receive fifty taels of silver. If you are disabled, you will get another thirty taels of silver. If you do this, who is afraid of death?"

"It's terrible that the imperial camp is doing this. No matter they are officials or soldiers, they are not afraid of death, and they are willing to obey military orders. They even look forward to fighting and begging to fight. Who in the world can rival this kind of army?"

The general nodded, "The treatment of the Tatars is nothing more than this, but how many people do the Tatars have? How many times can they fight? If we continue to fight like this, I dare say the Tatars won't be able to survive for a few years."

After all, Yan Keying had been living on the coast of Fujian before. He was a pirate and was not an insider of the system. "Why do you think no one thought of using this method when there were so many emperors in the Ming Dynasty for more than 280 years?"

The general smiled and said, "Sir, I think there must be smart people, and there are many of them. But, just because there are so many smart people, they always have their own thoughts and calculations, just like in this world.

The gentry are not willing to pay even a little business tax, do you think they would be willing to have the court impose massive taxes and then give a lot of money to these Qiu Bawufu?"

"Sea trade is of great benefit to the court, but what do those gentry and bureaucrats do? They firmly oppose the sea ban, but in private they are more active than anyone else in smuggling trade. Damn these guys, they make money and don't pay taxes.

, let them take all the good things,

So, it’s not that there are no smart people in the court, it’s that there are too many smart people, and they all only care about their own interests.”

Yan Keying slapped her thigh and said, "You summed it up well. It's indeed like this. Damn it. Put it this way, I feel more and more courageous as the emperor's son-in-law. He is the only emperor through the ages!"
