Chapter 168 Silver is in the warehouse
There are many coins in Luzon, including silver liang, Spanish silver liang and seven silver liang issued by the Ming Dynasty of Luzon.
Shopping conversions on weekdays are also a crazy thing.
However, when the money bank is opened, these things can be converted by the money bank.
This is also a good benefit for Luzon merchants.
After all, there are many kinds of coins obtained in the Southeast trade, so it is not easy to take action.
If a money house can exchange a large amount of silver for silver dollars, it will naturally be something that merchants can't afford.
Soon, many merchants from land and sea, and many local local officials sent back to take out the stored silver and planned to deposit it into Minghai Money House.
Of course, Minghai Money House also needs to charge corresponding handling fees.
A fee of about twenty taels of silver is charged.
After several days, a long queue was set up at the entrance of Minghai Money House, all of which were Ming merchants and their families who came to deposit the bank, as well as local domestic merchants.
Outside the city of Lavag,
Outside the Ming army camp, many Ming army soldiers such as the Huben Shenji and Ji Association, the Changdao Association, and the Land War Association were concentrated outside the camp.
A town will stand outside the tent of the camp, watching these elite Ming army and land towns.
"Today we gather you together is not for training, but for good news." Wang Tong, Lu Zhen, said, looking at the thousands of elite Ming soldiers present.
"The Sihai Chamber of Commerce established the Minghai Money House. From now on, the brothers will be paid their salary and can be deposited in the Minghai Money House with additional annual salary."
The Ming soldiers present looked at each other, not everyone knew what the money house was or what they did.
"You are fighting for the Ming court. You have a military salary of twenty taels of silver a year, and you have a relative rice. You can add more than ten taels of silver to the top of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 100% of the 1
"Everyone eats the Ming court's meal and lives in the military camp on weekdays. Basically, they get dozens of taels of silver a year. They don't spend all the dozens of taels of silver on the women when they go out to drink." Wang Tong smiled and looked at the thousands of officers and soldiers in front of him.
"Everyone went south to Luzon with the Lord, helpless, and rely on the Ming court for dinner, houses, fields, and wives, do you have one?"
"I won't be a soldier for the rest of my life, and I will have nothing in the end." These words touched many Ming soldiers, and everyone was in a daze.
Unlike other Ming troops, Huben Town is mostly veterans, and many are veterans who traveled south from Taiwan.
In Luzon, the veterans who had no support and had no worries could only hold a group to keep warm. This is also the reason why the soldiers in Huben Town are more united and more fearless in fighting than other Ming army towns.
Because they were free from worries on Luzon Island, their only relatives were comrades who lived in the same tent.
I thought I would live and die with the imperial court in Luzon in the future, but today's words from the governor Wang Tong touched all the veterans from Taiwan.
"Now everyone can save all the money saved on weekdays in Minghai Money House. The money house does not charge a handling fee of one or two taels of processing. A lot of land in Luzon is only seven or eight taels of silver. As a five-year soldier, he will save more than a hundred taels of silver. In the future, he will be discharged from his armor and return to his fields. He will buy seven or eight acres of land on the Luzon land, build a house, and marry a wife. It will not be happy." Wang Tong smiled and opened his mouth, and sat on the sand of the camp with a dogtail grass in his mouth, which was particularly casual.
"We work hard for the court, and the court gives us silver. I also know that many of you have actually married women and settled their families here. When the court is stable in the future and the world is peaceful, we will go home and live a good life and take a hundred taels of silver."
"A interested brother goes to the military supervisor to register. The court will give you a day off and go to the city bank to save money. If you don't want to save money, buy land and marry a wife in the future, it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's the silver given by the court, so you can spend it casually." After Wang Tong finished speaking, he stood up and strode into the camp, leaving thousands of Ming soldiers on the battlefield looking at each other, at a loss.
Seeing that the chief general entered the camp, the generals of the military commanders ignored the future, and the Ming soldiers present started to discuss it in a verbal manner.
"Erya, what does this money house mean?" Li Liu was wearing a armor, with a long sword and a musket around his waist. At this time, he was already a squad leader in Huben Town, commanding more than a dozen people.
It was also a blessing that he could endure hardships and work hard to fight and made many contributions when he entered the Auxiliary Military Town.
The rule of the Luzon Ming court was not so peaceful on the surface. Many Turkish chiefs were hostile and guarded against the Ming army. There were also bandits entrenched on the hills due to unrest. Bandits were not uncommon.
These bandits and bandits were in a sympathy with the country and often appeared on the official roads opened by the Ming army. Liu Quan from Weigan specially sent out several auxiliary soldiers towns during training, and by destroying bandits and bandits, the new recruits from the auxiliary soldiers were seen, and at the same time promoted some new soldiers who dared to fight.
Li Liu made contributions to the bandits and cut off the heads of six bandits and got the opportunity to be promoted.
It happened that Huben Town expanded its army. Taking this opportunity, Li Liu entered the most elite Huben Town from the Auxiliary Bing Town and brought Erya over.
"It's the place where you save money. The general means that the court will help us save money in the future. In the future, the court will give us silver. We can give it to the court, and the court will help us save it." Erya muttered.
The silver pay in Huben Town is the best among all the Ming army towns, and all the Ming army officers and soldiers are proud to enter Huben Town.
The annual salary and military pay alone are twice that of the auxiliary military town, which does not include the monthly increase of the rice.
The annual military pay for a soldier in Huben Town is almost equivalent to the salary of three or four auxiliary soldiers.
This also makes it easier for the officers and soldiers of Huben Town to save some money than the officers and soldiers of other army towns.
Some veterans from Huben Town have indeed settled in Luzon, and the monthly salary and military pay they received were also handed over to their families to provide their living.
More veterans are used to saving money by themselves, and of course they will hand over the silver to the military supervisor, put the saved silver in the warehouse, and if there is any need on weekdays, they will go to the deputy director, and then the deputy director will take it regularly.
After all, Mingjun Lu Town has three days off every month. When the officers and soldiers get money from the warehouse and go out to wander around for a few days.
However, you always have to pay a fee to store money in the warehouse. On weekdays, you can only entrust the vice-council leader to withdraw money from the military supervisor. Go to the military supervisor by yourself, and the military supervisor ignores you.
Every time a few assistant chiefs would get some broken silver or something, and the soldier would not dare to say anything.
Now the Ming court has built a money shop. He put the silver in the money shop without charging one or two ounces of fees, and can get it by himself at any time. This is not better than putting it in a military warehouse, being subject to military supervision, assistant chief or other exploitation.
The veterans present were not stupid, and some veterans with some connections in Luzon actually tried to find out.
Although this Minghai Money House was opened in Minghai, the person behind it is Zhongyong Hou, Lord Liu.
As the first person to form Huben Town, Liu Yu was naturally supported by veterans of Huben Town.
After all, whoever gives money will work for him.
Now everyone is taking the most military pay in the Ming army in Luzon, eating the best food and sleeping in the best military camp. This is all given by Lord Liu.
