Chapter 12: Don't miss it

Zhang Sanyi's hot man finally couldn't withstand Qin Chao's sugar-coated shells. If he continued to draw that big pie, it would be impossible for an individual to be moved.

The Tang Dynasty implemented the equal-field system. There was no salary for the soldiers. The soldiers were divided into government soldiers and recruiting soldiers. Government soldiers could also be called professional soldiers, but they did not need to serve in the army all year round. When there was a war, they would draw government soldiers and farm the fields at home. Then, they would divide the personnel into several batches every year, and each batch would rotate on duty for twenty days at a time.

Recruiting soldiers is usually recruited in large quantities when there is war. These are basically errands, responsible for logistics and other work.

Under normal circumstances, recruiting soldiers requires 20 days of labor service in a year, and most of them are responsible for patrolling local public security, guarding the city, etc.

There are two types of equal-field systems. One is to give the land to the soldiers, which are sufficient. Moreover, after the soldiers get the land, they directly enjoy the power of tax exemption. However, the soldiers need to bring their own weapons and equipment, and those with wealth can also bring their own horses.

The self-providing here refers to the official designated location. The soldiers of the government use their own money to purchase unified standard equipment, that is, a horizontal knife, several sets of unified military uniforms, spears and armor, etc., which are controlled equipment. Hyogo will be distributed when needed.

So when ordering the military troops, the first choice was the landlords and powerful peasants who were in good economic conditions at home, because they could fully afford to buy equipment and keep up with the nutrition, which would not lead to uneven military strength.

The equalization of land for recruiting soldiers should be distinguished according to the Huxiang and Kuan Township. Huxiang will not be sufficient, but Kuan Township will be sufficient, or even more, but they must pay taxes according to regulations.

Zhang San and the others were also a kind of military soldiers in the palace, but they were assigned to Qu Tutong's men, so they were listed as personal soldiers.

Zhang San and the others still don’t have much money in their hands, but they are not short of food.

Although it is expensive to have a string of twenty coins, it is not something that can be eaten. It is feasible to have one or two skewers occasionally.

As the main road from Xingyang to Luozhou, there are endless vendors along the way. There are many large merchants in Zhenxie alone, so there are no need to worry about having no business.

Anyway, Qin Chao has already agreed to them that they do not prepare too many ingredients every day. If they cannot be sold, they will just treat it as a matter of redeeming the money and buying meat for a meal. If the business is still not good after a while, even if they are removed, they will not suffer much loss.

However, Zhang San never refused to occupy 10% of the shares. His technology belongs to Qin Chao, his formula belongs to Qin Chao, and the people who work are also Qin Chao. They just paid some money and then started to fight. Apart from money, the rest were nothing in the eyes of Tangren.

Under Zhang San's insistence, Qin Chao occupied 50% of the shares, and Zhang Sanyi's hot people occupied 50%.

The investment funds are 100 yuan per person, and ten people are just the same, and the investment scale is not large.

Next was the preparation period. With enough personnel, Qin Chao once again acted as the manager of the hand-off. He first took out 300 yuan to buy various spices, mainly cumin.

This thing is not easy to buy now, and the whole grains are bought, and you have to find a way to grind it yourself, which is very difficult.

Qin Chao directed two people to make special marks. Without bamboo, iron cannot be used, so he can only make it with slightly harder willow trees.

Qin Chao directed Zhang San to make an oven. The iron cannot be used and the stones are too heavy. It is impossible to dig a hole in Zhenfeng Town like at home. Therefore, the oven is made of wood. At the same time, in order to avoid the wood being burned, after making the shape, thick mud was pasted on the inside and outside of the oven.

Next is charcoal. Tangren barbecue directly lights a pile of fire. When the fire is slightly smaller, it will be hung on it and roasted directly. The heat is uneven. This is also the reason why the ingredients are always roasted but still not cooked inside.

Charcoal is easier to make. Find some dry firewood, ignite it for a while and then bury it in the soil. After half a month, it will be dug out and turned into charcoal. However, Qin Chao may not have been able to wait for that long.

Early the next morning, Qin Chao and Zhang San and others had breakfast, and then couldn't wait to greet the three soldiers. The two carried the ovens they had made yesterday. One carried a bag of charcoal that had been buried for a day, and held a ceramic jar in his arms. The prepared mutton skewers were inside. The group of four went straight to Zhenxie Town, five miles away.

The three soldiers of the mansion were originally planning to wear casual clothes, but at Qin Chao's strong request, the three of them finally had to wear military uniforms. Although they were not wearing helmets and armor, there was a horizontal sword representing the soldiers of the mansion hanging around their waists, and it was very cool to walk along the way.

In fact, Qin Chao's move is indeed very useful. After entering Zhenxie Town, several groups of gangsters wanted to cause trouble for Qin Chao, but after looking at the three soldiers surrounded by Qin Chao as coolies, the gangsters could only sigh helplessly and leave.

The stall of a mutton skewers is not complicated, just put the shelves there. Qin Chao walked in the town for a long time and finally chose a restaurant called Rundelou.

Runde Building is large in scale, with two floors and luxurious decorations. Lamb skewers were all scattered in the future, but here, Qin Chao was sold as a high-end luxury item. If you don’t find a place with a high quality, how can you sell it for a twelve skewer for a skewer?

"Dalang, what, are you doing here? The three of us are watching nearby. If someone comes to cause trouble, we will come over immediately." Wang San, a soldier from the palace, walked to Qin Chao, lowered his head and said with a shy look on his face.

"Okay!" Qin Chao thought for a while. The three soldiers stood beside him, and their business seemed to be difficult to do, as long as no one came to cause trouble.

"But yours help me ignite the fire before leaving." Qin Chao said immediately.

It’s not a problem to ignite the fire. Throw a pine needle in it, and then you can still have some small wooden sticks. After you wait, just put charcoal directly. Charcoal is not mechanical charcoal, so it’s especially easy.

The fire was already boiled in the oven after less than half a cup of tea. However, because the charcoal has not yet been fully formed, the flame is a little bit difficult to control, but for Qin Chao, this is nothing at all.

Zhenxie Town is located about 35 kilometers east of Luozhou and about 35 kilometers west of Hulao Pass. Although there are several towns that must be passed along the way, those places are either too close to Hulao Pass or too close to Luozhou, so most vendors choose to rest briefly in Zhenxie Town.

In addition to having a better geographical advantage, the wealthy families in Zhenxie Town are also more flexible in mind. The streets are about two miles long and are all built with two-story shops, inns, or restaurants, one by one, while there are only those three or two in other places. In terms of resources, Zhenxie Town is far behind.

Selling mutton skewers was not Qin Chao's dream. Now it was just a matter of making a living, and there was also the dog's system.

If you make money, Qin Chao will plan to drink wine next. The wine processed by himself will have a higher profit.

However, Qin Chao's ultimate dream is to develop in Luozhou and Chang'an. There are many large households there and strong consumption capacity. Although the flow of people in Zhenfeng Town is large, it still cannot be compared with Luozhou and Chang'an.

But this seems to be just a thought. With the Dog Said system, Qin Chao felt that he had been tricked again. If the system issued a task, he had to accumulate reputation. It was just a little bit of time, and the system allowed him to make money. Should he get married and have children next...

After looking at the three soldiers who were 10 or 20 meters away from the stall, Qin Chao felt a little confident. Those who collected protection fees would naturally be solved by Wang San and the others.

Lamb skewers are not new, but Qin Chao's skewers are definitely new items. It is unrealistic to rely solely on customers to come to the door.

When you open the door to do business on the first day, you naturally have to build momentum for yourself. Not only do you have to build momentum, but you also have to attract people to give them the desire to buy.

Qin Chao took a handful of lamb skewers, just ten skewers, reached out to try the temperature of the charcoal fire. The temperature was just right, so he placed the lamb skewers on the oven.

Qin Chao's move did attract a lot of people, but this is far from enough. Qin Chao's killer move has not yet been used.
