Chapter 202 Soldier Salary

"Oh!"

Zhang Tie did not expect such a big transaction as soon as he came here. In his thinking, in such a small county, it is enough to sell three or four hundred catties, but he did not expect to sell nine hundred catties.

More than 900 catties of refined salt, that is 800 taels of silver, enough to pay a soldier's wages for a month.

Speaking of the salaries of soldiers, I have to say here that this month has been a huge waste.

He didn't care about the actual salary for the time being. After all, it was only paid every three months, but the system salary of soldiers was paid once every month.

Although the wages of the soldiers stationed will be cut in half, even if the wages of more than 1000 soldiers are cut in half, it is still a lot of money.

At present, Zhang Tie has three types of arms, one is Song soldiers, the other is female soldiers, and the last is Jianghu arms.

Among them, the salaries of Song soldiers and female soldiers are the same, from the first-level to the fifth-level arms, the salaries that need to be paid a month are 160, [-], [-], [-], and [-] system currency respectively.

Except that the salaries of the fifth-level arms are different, the salaries of soldiers of other different levels are basically doubled.

Compared with these two arms, the salary of Jianghu arms is much higher, twice that of Song Dynasty arms.

After all, the basic attributes and equipment are much better, and the salary is higher than that of the Song Dynasty, which is also a normal thing.

Among the more than 1000 soldiers, there are more than 100 Jianghu disciples, including [-] true disciples (fourth level) and forty inner disciples (third level).

Of the remaining 450 soldiers, there are 25 recruits (first class), 25 five regular soldiers (second class), 95 archers (second class), [-] strong shooters (third class), [-] Famous Sword and Shield Soldiers (Level [-]).

After the salary is calculated, [-] system currency is needed a month. This is still the case when the salary of the soldiers stationed is halved. If it is not halved, it may cost as much as [-].

Based on Zhang Tie's current economic situation, if he only relies on the existing system currency, he can only pay for half a year at most. If he adds the income from the grocery store, he can barely pay for a year's wages.

This is also the reason why Zhang Tie came back and continued to run the business. Whether it is silver or system currency, they are all in short supply.

As for running a business, not only can you get silver taels, but you can also get experience and system coins. Although the rewards for running a business are not very high, they are still good.

Moreover, there will definitely be emergencies during the escort, and these emergencies will turn into tasks.

[Escort mission! 】

[Task content: Escort the Deng family caravan to trade abroad. 】

[Task reward: experience 30000, system currency 10000. 】

[Task status: In progress. 】

After a little joy, Zhang Tie asked the two salt merchants: "I wonder when the two will trade? Is it cash or bank notes?"

The two salt merchants said without thinking at the same time: "The transaction is now, with Yan's bank notes."

Zhang Tie raised his eyebrows hidden under the mask, and just casually said that he would trade with bank notes. He really didn't expect that the other party really had Yan Guo's bank notes.

It seems that Yan Guo is on the bank note and is very popular with other countries. Not only is it used by Zhao Guo, the enemy country, but even South Korea is also used.

"Alright, Hon Hai, go get someone to bring over nine hundred catties of refined salt."

Zhang Tie first ordered his relatives to go with Hon Hai to pick up the goods, and then turned around and said to the three merchants: "Everyone, wait patiently, the refined salt will be delivered soon, I wonder if you want to buy other goods, other things are also available It's all good."

Zhang Tie's words were mainly addressed to the only grocery store merchant among the three merchants.

From the very beginning, the merchant in the grocery store had been quietly watching the actions of the two salt merchants, and he didn't step forward to check the goods in the small box.

Hearing what Zhang Tie said, the three merchants all turned their gazes to other small boxes. The merchant from the grocery store came to a small box first, and the other two salt merchants also walked to another small box to watch. the goods inside.

The moment he saw the dried meat, the owner of the grocery store was stunned. He obviously didn't expect that there was still meat.

"It can be eaten directly."

The Wudang disciple carrying the small box glanced at the merchant in the grocery store and reminded him.

The Wudang disciple's words made the merchant in the grocery store tear off a piece of air-dried meat and put it in his mouth. The numbing and spicy taste filled the merchant's taste buds.

On the other side, two salt merchants watched as they grabbed wine jugs and poured themselves a glass of wine each.

The two first smelled the aroma of the wine, and nodded in satisfaction. The pure aroma of the wine contained a hint of grape fragrance. Just from the aroma of the wine, it can be seen that this wine is extraordinary.

And in fact, that was exactly the case. After the two drank it, their eyes lit up, and they immediately started to drink heavily. The two drank a bottle of wine directly.

After the three merchants tasted all the food and asked the price, they directly chose to trade with Zhang Tie, and the quantities were quite large.

Among them, air-dried meat was sold at a price of one hundred copper coins per catty, and a total of three hundred catties were sold.

A bottle of wine costs one tael of silver, and 330 bottles are sold, adding up the two, a total of [-] taels of silver.

After the acceptance by both parties, the transaction was formally completed.

When the transaction on Zhang Tie's side was completed, the transaction on Deng Wei's side was almost completed. Both parties were smiling, and it seemed that the development was going very smoothly.

Compared with Zhang Tie's groceries, medicinal materials are much more expensive than refined salt and wine. This time, Deng Wei's income is probably several thousand taels of silver.

When the two parties parted, the three businessmen who had dealt with Zhang Tie all punched Zhang Tie.

"Brother Zhang, you must remember to inform us next time you come!"

"Well, definitely."

Zhang Tie nodded, feeling slightly relieved.

After this transaction and conversation between the two parties, the business route in Hongyang County has been settled. In the future, such things as refined salt can be directly transported by someone to carry out the transaction. There is no need for Zhang Tie to handle it in person. .

After the entire caravan completed the transaction, Zhang Tie ordered someone to send some products to the magistrate of Hongyang County, and after buying some replacements for the caravan, he continued on the road, preparing to go to the next stop for trade.

The good start made Zhang Tie and Deng Wei very happy. They couldn't help looking forward to the following itinerary, and they both felt that the next itinerary should be smooth.

But Zhang Tie and Deng Wei never imagined that when they set off, a conspiracy against them was also being plotted in Hongyang County.

With such a large transaction volume, it is natural that some people will have evil intentions and want to get something for nothing.
