The captain of the guard led his people to guard the growth of the sacred tree, and Shade stared at it every day.
Suddenly someone came from outside to report that it was the Phoenix Kingdom's escort force that had sent money.
Shad looked confused and looked at the captain of the guard, suspecting that there was a liar in the house.
Akeem glanced at him and explained: "The escort of Phoenix coins and precious metals is not under the control of the inner court. They have specialized troops."
"Then let me go and take a look?"
Akeem was helpless and nodded: "Go ahead, it's real money."
When Shad arrived at the city gate, he saw a long queue with many animals on trailers transporting boxes. The animals were all rented from Pangxun.
After the guard prompted, someone from the team came over to salute, took out a book and showed it to Shad: "The Armed Escort Force is a department under Phoenix Bank. I am the captain. You can just call me Falcon. At the back are the funds approved by my king. , a total of 12 million, will you count it on site or go to the city to see it later?"
The scale of the armed escort force is at the battalion level, and they are basically non-disabled soldiers. A small number are selected from the city defense army, and are assigned to the garrison. They occupy the reserve establishment, which is actually the 1st Battalion of the 51st Regiment, which is the 251st Battalion, and has operational ownership. at Phoenix Bank.
In fact, it was originally planned to be placed in the 11th Regiment, but the affairs of the Model Regiment were very complicated, and the escort task was relatively important and required a group of people to be occupied for a long time. So we simply separated it and recalled some reservists to do it.
"...Let's go to the city and have a look." Shad wiped his forehead nervously, not sure if he was sweating.
More than ten million!
Because Fatel is pushing banknotes, gold coins have increased slightly recently, but after conversion, the money is still worth 600,000 gold coins, which is five to six yuan per capita in Nanpangxun!
Enter the lord's mansion courtyard and ask people to count them.
The money was neatly stacked in the small box, and counting was very quick.
One hundred phoenix coins come in a pack, placed vertically in a box on one level, arranged in odd and even pairs. The 10-yuan coins come in four rows of 9 packs and three rows of 8 packs. There are a total of 60 packs, which is exactly 60,000 per box. One yuan and one dime are smaller, with 70 packages in a box, which are 7,000 and 700 packages respectively.
His subordinates quickly compiled the sum and reported it to Shad. It was exactly 12 million, not even a dime.
Falcon came closer and said, "Please sign."
Sha De couldn't understand and quickly called Hui Qin Yu's men.
"It's the consignment note. You just need to sign here."
After signing, Falcon handed over another book: "This is a limit on the scope of use of the funds. You have to make the accounts. Our administrative team will come over for acceptance when the time comes. If the accounts are not correct, you have to fill the gap."
"ah?"
"Do you think this money was given to you for free?"
"Ah no, no, no, I just think...it's too particular, too particular!"
Falcon's expression didn't change during the whole process, and he didn't seem to care about what he was thinking. Before leaving, he said, "Read the booklet carefully. My king will not treat people who work hard."
"Yes Yes Yes!"
After sending the escort troops away, the Lord's Mansion quickly imposed a martial law and invited a few mages to stay at home in the city. He was a little afraid of leaving so much money at home.
Follow Falcon's advice and read the brochure carefully.
In fact, it is a work-for-relief implementation plan. All the money will be distributed in the form of wages, and the salary standards for implementation and organization personnel are specified.
The money that Shad can get is the acting mayor's salary of 800 yuan a month and the security subsidy of 200,000 yuan a month.
According to the regulations in the booklet, if he can guarantee that there will be no collective fighting or large-scale casualties, he can take the 200,000 yuan a month alone... obviously he can't.
If we hire a team, 200,000 people can hire nearly a thousand mixed second and third ring personnel per month. If we add some weaker ones, we can increase the number by another 50%, which is barely enough to maintain basic order.
But this arrangement obviously makes no money.
Shad is not as stingy as Katia, the original lord of Montenegro, but the Phoenix King wants him to rectify the people's hearts in advance. With these unspecified payments, it is obvious that he has a certain degree of discretion.
After lying in the room and doing calculations, I quickly came up with a better plan.
Based on the lord's army, a portion of the profits will be given to large households to mobilize their private soldiers, and then some people will be hired among the people. The total cost will be around 150,000. He earns 50,000, and the number of personnel can reach more than 2,000.
The 50,000 yuan was actually taken from the Lord's Army, because even without the money from the Phoenix King, the Lord's Army would still have to pay for their military pay. Now they were just given some bonuses to work more, and their expenses were limited.
After understanding your job, and then looking at other money, you will see that there are many more rules and regulations. The salary is all set, from a few dozen yuan per month to 300 yuan per month. There are also daily positions and pay-per-trip positions. Shipping prices are available.
This part is basically one person at a time, and it is easy to keep accounts.
It doesn’t mean that there are no loopholes at all. If Shad wants to make money, he can completely reduce the scale of public employment to extend the total use time of the money. The 200,000 public security subsidy can be received for a few more months.
But he was timid. On the one hand, he did not dare to test the bottom line of the Phoenix King. On the other hand, there was a sacred tree growing in the city. In the eyes of outsiders, it was already the territory of the Phoenix Kingdom. If he did not quickly start defense work, he might be attacked at any time. Fatal's attack.
So I calculated my share of income and quickly started a relief project.
There are not as many literate people here as there are in the country. More than half of them are in the hands of a few large households, and most of the rest are doing accounting and other work in various shops. The number of people who can be squeezed out to do relief management is relatively limited.
It seems that the big players still have to cooperate.
The big families in Pangxun in the north and south have been frightened recently. Many of them are selling their land. Due to the chaotic situation, the price is low. I feel distressed, but I can only bear the pain, otherwise many of them will be confiscated in the Phoenix Kingdom.
As for selling the real estate and escaping, it wouldn't be a problem. After all, the Phoenix Kingdom had defeated Fatel's Royal Legion, and the surrounding areas had noticed the development over the years. It would be difficult to find someone with comparable strength after escaping.
Therefore, as long as Lord Shad provides money, there are still big people who are willing to cooperate with others. Even if it is not for money, if you leave a serious attitude towards work, you will most likely have the opportunity to enter the public service system in the future, and it will be easier to do business in the future.
Organizational skills need to be exercised. Shad has never dealt with such a large-scale transfer of personnel before. By the time the clerical and management staff were organized, the sacred tree had already reached the stage of organization.
The captain of the guard came to say goodbye: "The fertility cannot keep up with the growth of the sacred tree. You should produce some sugar water to accumulate fertility first. I will come back next time."
"thanks, thanks!"
Shad was sincerely grateful this time, sugar water, this is a real strategic material.
In addition to being used to avoid being beaten by others, it also has a certain relationship with relief funds.
Many people in Nan Pangxun are using Phoenix coins, but there are still many people who are very stubborn and still cling to the Fartel currency, saying that wooden money is not money.
It is understandable that ordinary people have this attitude. In the final analysis, it is caused by some weird currencies in history.
But now, sugar water can only be bought with phoenix coins. Sugar water can't be bought with fartel gold coins, not to mention silver coins and copper coins.
As long as the sugar-producing function of the sacred tree is normal, the 12 million in hand is real money, and no one can refute it.
