Chapter 540 suddenly realized that Quan Xu was a little puzzled, although the whole family army had been fighting continuously over the years, whether it was against Jiannu or facing the Dutch, including the Spaniards, they were basically in a state of crushing, and the casualties were almost negligible.What's more, in this era, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were actually very cheap, and many times, when the generals caught the peasants casually and issued a cheap spear, they were soldiers.As for the war, it is a natural obligation for them, they have no right to ask for anything, the honor has nothing to do with them, even if they win, the reward is extremely meager, for example, the battle to resist the Japanese and aid Korea, hundreds of thousands of soldiers fought for seven or eight years, tens of thousands of dead and wounded, and finally won the war, and the reward was less than one or two silver per person, which is just a joke.In case they die in battle, don't talk about money for their families, thank God for being compensated for a few buckets of old rice!
How much combat effectiveness can an army that has no honor, no due remuneration, and no compensation for the families who have died in battle?
Relatively speaking, the whole family army is very different, they are not soldiers for a lifetime, but have a service period, as short as five years, as long as eight years, in their service can not only get rich rewards, even if they die in battle, the family will also get a large amount of compensation, what else do they have to worry about?
All of them were given the best equipment, the best treatment, and the most rigorous training for the officers and men of the whole family......
The welfare of the whole family army is notoriously good, and recruiting male soldiers, it is almost a fight for the head.Why didn't anyone come to ask about the female soldiers?
What's the problem?
Is it that the wages of female workers are too high?
They can't stand the suffering of the troops?
Thinking of this, Quan Xu found Sanniang and asked, "Sanniang, how much can you textile workers earn a month?"
”When it came to the question of money, Sanniang became vigilant: "Why do you ask this question?"
”"It's okay, just ask!"
Sanniang muttered: "Different types of work, different wages, anyway, the minimum is one or two silver, and the high one can get three or four taels of silver!"
”Quan Xu thought that he had found the root of the disease, and the female soldiers were a little low according to the auxiliary soldiers, so they added three more coins to raise it to one or two or five dollars per month.However, what Quan Xu didn't expect was that he raised his salary to one or two or a half dollars of silver, and still no one came to recruit, and Quan Xu felt frustration for the first time.After more than half a month like this, seeing that the autumn harvest is starting to be busy, it is even more useless to recruit female soldiers.As the saying goes, if you have the intention to plant flowers and flowers, you will not have the intention to plant willows and willows.Just when Quan Xu felt desperate, Cheng Jingxian came to visit Quan Xu, he was actually a middleman, and came to Quan Xu to purchase food.When there was no granary in Liaodong, the grain prices of the Central Plains and the entire Ming Dynasty were decided by those wealthy families and the grain merchants they controlled, who took advantage of natural and man-made disasters to speculate the price of grain to sky-high prices.During this time, they began to fight with Liaodong, how much grain they ate, how much grain Liaodong could produce, and all of them were transported to Jiangnan by a ship of thousands of stones, thousands of stones or even tens of thousands of stones.These grain merchants are trapped, they can be said to have lost all their money and suffered heavy losses, hoping to shake hands with Quan Xu.Quan Xu naturally did not agree, but he did not completely refuse, but directly proposed an agreement: "According to the model of Daming Railway Corporation, establish a Daming Grain Corporation, openly recruit shareholders, and plan to issue 50 million grain shares, 100 taels of silver per share!"
”This request is in Cheng Jingxian: "Master Hou, those of them will definitely not agree." ”"I won't agree, Ben Hou can't take care of it!"
Quan Xu sneered: "Salt, iron, grain, cloth, these essential materials for life, I must hold the pricing power, they must follow the rules I have set and act within the rules, otherwise go on!"
”After Quan Xu's Ponzi scam, after more than three years of layout, he finally trapped the Jiangnan gentry and wealthy families, and just harvested their wool, as much as more than 50 million taels of silver.It can be said that the Jiangnan gentry and wealthy families did not know that the mastermind behind this was Quan Xu, they just knew that after the wool harvesting operation of the Pon's scam, the Jiangnan gentry no longer had the strength to fight a grain price war with Quan Xu.Now Quanxu not only owns 60 or 70 million mu of land in Liaodong, in fact, it also includes Luzon, yes, the rice income of Luzon in the first season has been transported to the Central Plains and has become a new force in this grain price war.In addition to Luzon, the whole army also got 20 or 30 million stone grain in the Indochina Peninsula, and if Quan Xu was willing, he could beat the price of grain to the ground.Cheng Jingxian does not express his opinion on this issue, in the eyes of the Jiangnan gentry, he is already the scum of Jiangbei people and the lackey of Quan Xu."
Master Hou, I heard that you are recruiting female soldiers?""
yes!"
Quan Xu said with a depressed face: "I am going to set up a female soldier unit at the division level of the whole family army, and each unit will temporarily set up two hundred people, a total of 1,600 people!"
”The whole family army reorganized in the plan will set up eight divisions of type A and four divisions of type B, a total of 12 divisions, and the reorganization will only involve infantry, cavalry, and artillery, and will not involve marine brigades.It is enough for the Marine Brigade to use the brigade as a tactical or strategic unit, so Quan Xu plans to set up a field hospital for each division and prepare 200 female medical nurses!"
Sixteen hundred?"
Cheng Jingxian frowned: "This number is a bit small!"
”"Who's to say it isn't?"
Quan Xu smiled bitterly: "Just these 1,600 people, now there is not even a shadow!"
”Cheng Jingxian said: "Master Hou, there are some ways under the door!"
”"Thank you so much, don't leave today, stay in the house to eat!"
Cheng Jingxian was very short and proud, and secretly happy.I'm really betting on the right treasure.The next day, Quan Xu came to the recruitment site of female soldiers in Jinzhou, looked at the officer in charge of recruitment and said, "How is it now?"
”"Back to the Hou Ye, I still haven't come!"
Jeon Wook was about to speak, when a fragrant breeze wafted over......
Well, a bit of a pungent kind.In his surprised gaze, several women in their double ten-years moved lightly, and they were very young.Although these women are not outstanding in appearance, their figures are average, their makeup is a little thicker, and the charm between their eyes is a little too crisp, but they also meet his conditions, and the most important thing is that the breakthrough of zero is just around the corner!
He greeted him enthusiastically, rubbed his hands and asked, "How many sisters are coming to apply?"
Hurry up, please, please!
”An old lady who still has charm is a zhang away, and the fat powder on her body makes Quan Xu cover her nose unconsciously.The old lady smiled and said, "You little brother, you're quite enthusiastic......
That's right, we're here to apply, what about your superiors?
Ask him to come out. ”The officer next to him was about to speak, Quan Xu patted his chest and said, "I am, I am the person in charge here!"
”Old Xu Banniang looked at Quan Xu with some surprise: "Oh, I can't see that you are young, and you have become an official?"
”Generally speaking, the quality of the clothing of the officers of the whole family army is not significantly different from that of the soldiers, especially the current military uniforms of the whole family army, which were produced in the Ming Dynasty.The only difference is the embroidery on the neckline, which is only cyan for ordinary soldiers, embroidered with a hammer and axe crossed, and if it is a veteran of more than two years, two ears of wheat are added.Lieutenants are embroidered in bronze with one star to three stars, while officers are silver, with two bars and one star to three stars.Of course, Quan Xu has no military rank, and he really can't see it from his clothes."
Not bad, not bad, very promising!"
Xu Lao Banniang raised his handkerchief, and a breath of fat powder almost stunned him, and Quan Xu hurriedly retreated.Old Xu Banniang smiled: "You're still ashamed, Hinata, right?"
”Quan Xu looked at the guards around him, and the guards watched Quan Xu being molested by a woman, and consciously turned around and looked into the distance.Yang Menglong was so worried that she would break her waist.Quan Xu was helpless, coughed and looked solemnly at Xu Lao Banniang and several other women: "You really want to be a soldier?"
”"Not soldiers, what are we doing here?"
The warblers and warblers Yanyan smiled and were unscrupulous, or looked at Quan Xu a little shy, and these women wanted to pinch Quan Xu's face.Of course, Quan Xu's personal guards are not vegetarians, and they intentionally or unintentionally blocked the women out, and finally gave Quan Xu the most basic face."
Okay, let's get down to business......
That one......
Let me tell you about the conditions.First of all, you must be between the ages of eighteen and twenty-eight, and you must be unmarried!

”Old Banniang Xu took the lead and said: "Little brother, don't look at me when I'm younger and older, I'm only twenty-eight this year, twenty-eight and one flowers, do you think I fit?"
”"Suitable!"
Jeon Wook was speechless, and there was no chance to choose.Another woman said timidly: "I'm fifteen!
”"Fifteen, it's a little smaller, but it doesn't matter much, just take care of people."
Hearing Quan Xu's words, the women laughed even more unscrupulously: "We can take care of people, whether they are older or younger, as long as we let our sisters go over, we can ensure that they are taken care of comfortably!"
”"That's good, the second requirement is that you must be careful and gentle, and you must have a certain culture......
The cultural requirements are not very high, just be able to read a thousand words. ”Old Xu Banniang pointed to the women around her and smiled: "We all know books and etiquette, gentle and considerate!"
”"You don't have to say this, your instructor has to say it."
Xu Lao Banniang was a little puzzled: "We have been training since we were children, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, flower ceremony and tea ceremony, all of which are fine, and we still need instructors?"
”Another woman with freckles on her face said, "Yes, little brother, we are familiar with these, I don't believe you can draw one out of the test at will." ”Quan Xu nodded and said, "Okay, since you are so confident, I will test you." ”Pointing to the most petite woman with a fair baby face: "Come here, I'll ask a few questions to see if you can do it." ”Old Banniang Xu smiled and said, "Little brother, are you here to test her?"
”Quan Xu was inexplicable: "If you don't take the test here, where else can you take the test?"
”"How embarrassed is she?
Don't look at Sister Miao'er's seventeen years old, she's still a chick!
