Chapter 59 Recruitment

"Hey! Xiao Li, what is it written on it?"

"Recruitment, this is a recruitment notice written by the Queen's son-in-law."

"The Queen's son-in-law? The one who beat the Americans who surrounded the palace away?"

"Yes, it's him."

"Then tell me if there are any requirements on this. The shipyard is about to be completed. We will have no work to do by then. I heard that the queen's son-in-law is also a Chinese man, and like us, she has no braids. It would be nice to be in the army under him."

When Li Ming heard this, he immediately thought that he and his younger brother were about to lose their jobs. Once they lost their jobs, they would always spend all the money they earned. Thinking of this, he quickly looked down.

"It is only recruiting Chinese people. It requires aged 18 to 25, strong and not braided, and the best way to read. If you have a skill, you will have a monthly salary of $15 and a pension interview. Those who are interested can sign up at the gate of the Honolulu Palace."

"Hey, Xiao Li, the above said $15 a month?!"

“Yes, $15 a month!”

"15 US dollars! The foreigner's military salary is not that much! I'm just 25 this year, and I plan to try it. Xiao Li, are you going?"

15 US dollars, which is indeed more than the military pay of foreigners. Moreover, the military pay is 15 US dollars, and the pension will definitely not be less. Li Ming decided to give it a try too.

"Okay, let's go together!" Li Ming squeezed out of the crowd.

After leaving for a while, I saw another notice written in English: "Recruiting soldiers is only recruiting Hawaiian natives. It is required to be 18 to 25 years old, strong and strong, and support the queen. The monthly military salary is $15. Those who are interested can sign up in front of the Honolulu Palace."

"Hey? Xiao Li, why is there another notice to recruit only natives?"

"I'll know when I arrive in Honolulu."

When Li Ming and the others walked to the palace, they found that there were already many people queuing up, including 6 rows, 3 rows of Chinese and 3 rows of natives, and there were dozens of people in each row. Li Ming and the others quickly lined up.

It was not Li Ming's turn after a long time. The fellow villager who followed Li Ming couldn't help but say, "Hey, Xiao Li, why does it take so long?"

"It's almost there, there are 1,2,3...12 in front, it should be soon."

"It's been one hour (two hours)!"

After more than half an hour, it was finally Li Ming's turn.

"Age." Liu Jun, who was making the record, looked at Li Ming and asked expressionlessly behind him.

"21." Li Ming answered truthfully.

"Name."

"Li Ming."

"Hometown."

"Jinhua, Zhejiang."

"But what other relatives?"

"There are mothers and younger brothers at home."

"Can you read?"

"I know, I know, I have studied for two years."

"Do you have any specialties, such as being very accurate in marksmanship."

"Uh...no."

"Can you water?"

"Yes, I'm very good at water!"

"Then do you have anything to ask?"

“Is it really $15 a month?”

"Not bad, but this 15 US dollars is not easy to make. Our training is very hard, and it is 10 times harder than working in a factory. Do you think it would be like joining the army in the Qing Dynasty? Hehe, our military law is strict! If you stand in a wrong position, you will be beaten by a military stick. Do you think it is so easy to make money by 15 US dollars?"

Li Ming naturally knew that the 15 dollar was not easy to make, but he didn't expect that it was so difficult to make. If he stood in a wrong position, he would get a military stick, but he decided to give it a try.

Li Ming continued to ask, "That pension..."

"The pension depends on your personal credit, of course, at least $1,000."

1,000 US dollars! If you are a soldier in the court, the salary will be only two months, no more than 20 taels of silver. If you are a soldier in Hawaii, the minimum pension will be 1,000 US dollars, which is 800 taels of silver!

Can my life be worth 800 taels of silver? Li Ming asked himself.

Yes! You must be able to! And you must be more than 800 taels of silver!

"Take it seriously?" Li Ming asked.

"What our young master has is money, what is the mere $1,000?"

"Okay, no matter how hard this soldier is, I will be the one who is going to be!" Li Ming said firmly.

"Hehe, you can't help it. If you can't meet the requirements set by the young master after three months of training, you have to put on the bed and leave."

"I will definitely do it!"

"I ambitious, very good. Come to this episode in 7 days. Next!"

Compared with the Chinese, the indigenous people next to them are much simpler to recruit soldiers.

Because the indigenous people are loyal to the queen and Qin Ge only plans to let the indigenous troops station in Hawaii, it is planned that the indigenous people will only recruit 30,000 people.

The Queen's Chief of Guards, Haharo, personally checked it. His question is very simple, name, age, where to live, good, and come to this episode in 7 days, next one.

As long as it meets the standards, Qin Ge gave him the order to recruit 30,000 people as soon as possible, so as long as it meets the standards, hahaha, let them pass.

In the palace, Qin Ge and Anna were looking down.

Anna said, "How is it? I said that my mother's people will definitely be more enthusiastic than the Chinese."

"I have nothing to say. How many times the local residents are as high as Chinese? You can compare this with me!"

"snort."

"When the time comes, you can practice your people yourself, and I will practice mine, how about it?"

"What! This doesn't work. I'm the only one here, I have to train 30,000 people alone?" Anna was not happy after Qin Ge said this. "At least send an officer from a company to me."

"What! A company officer, do you think that those who have fought can train soldiers? You will laugh at me if you can send 5 people to you. Moreover, I need to strengthen ideological education, but unlike everyone on your side, everyone is loyal." Qin Ge said.

"Send 5 people to me? Then why are you looking for these people to do? These are 30,000 people!"

"I said, "My wife! Is it useful to send someone here? First of all, the language is not clear and communication is difficult. Secondly, the Chinese are not sure that they can command your people. This is your people!" Qin Ge emphasized.

"I can arrange for the translation if I can't speak the language, and I can ask my mother to come forward if I can't command. These are not a problem at all." Anna said.

"Okay, I'm convinced you. If you can call my people, I will never stop you, but you can't get my name." Qin Ge said helplessly. If he had known this indigenous army, he would have to take away many officers and para-armed officers.

"This is what you said! Li Wei!"

"Madam, what are you asking?"

"In the name of Mrs. Ben, let Erbao draw an officer from a company to command me."

"This..." Li Wei looked at Qin Ge in embarrassment.

"Is there any problem?"

"If you ask you to go, go. Can my wife still call you? Let Erbao keep the elites, and those with a little talent will be sent to my wife for exercise!" Qin Ge said.

"yes!"
