Chapter Sixteen
Then, the two Japanese looked at Wang Hu and waited for Wang Hu to explain...
"Taijun, this is the case... Our Yangjia Village defeated the Russians this time, but our Yangjia Village also took care of the losses. The entire copycat, including us, was less than fifty people, and there were many old, weak and wounded..."
"What's more important is that because the parody has been trapped in Songshuling by the Russians, the parody's grain is almost finished..."
"In this situation, we don't need to fight against the Russians. We will disband ourselves..."
Finally, I met a copycat that dared to fight and could also fight the Russian army to serve him. Of course, the two of them would not watch the Yangjiazhai disband by themselves.
Because at least 80% of what Wang Hu said was true, the two Japanese believed it as soon as Wang Hu finished speaking.
After looking at each other, a Japanese man directly spoke to Wang Hu: "Wang Jun, the Great Japanese Empire will not watch the copycat disband. You serve the Great Japanese Empire, and the Great Japanese Empire will definitely help you solve these difficulties..."
After saying that, the Japanese turned his attention to Yang Xingguo directly, and then asked with a serious look on his face...
"Yang Jun, we misunderstood you just now... Now, I want to know what our Great Japanese Empire can do to help the Copycao continue to develop and serve me the Great Japanese Empire..."
Of course, Yang Xingguo would not let go of such an opportunity to quarrel.
Under the gaze of the two Japanese, Yang Xingguo deliberately pretended to be very anxious and quickly answered...
"Silver, our Yangjiazhai wants silver... With the money, we can buy food... With the money, our Yangjiazhai can recruit soldiers and continue to serve the two Taijun..."
"Yo Xi..." Yang Xingguo's answer did not exceed the expectations of the two Japanese.
After some thought, the Japanese who had just spoken asked again: "I don't know how much silver Yang Jun needs... As long as the quantity is not too large, the Great Japanese Empire will definitely help Yang Jun solve this problem..."
"Ten thousand taels of silver..." Yang Xingguo said without thinking.
There is no doubt that the two Japanese rejected this number.
After all, the two Japanese are not God of Wealth...
Yang Xingguo eliminated dozens of Russians, and although they received a lot of rewards, even their military rank was promoted one level. However, no matter how many rewards and promotions were, they were worth less than 10,000 taels of silver.
After a brief discussion, I kept talking to Yang Xingguo, and the Japanese named Nakata spoke directly...
"One thousand taels of silver... The Japanese Empire can support Yang Jun with one thousand taels of silver to solve the problem of copycat..."
Since it was a lion who spoke up, Yang Xingguo did not expect the other party to agree. However, Yang Xingguo still knew about bargaining.
As soon as Nakata said the answer of 1,000 taels of silver, Yang Xingguo shook his head and ordered: "No, Nakata Taijun, 1,000 taels of silver is too little, it is not as good as before when he went out to rob a village once... at least 8,000 taels of silver..."
Nakata followed without hesitation and said, "Yang Jun, eight thousand taels are too much. The Japanese Empire supports Yang Jun at most two thousand taels of silver..."
After some bargaining, Yang Xingguo finally received support from 4,000 taels of silver.
Of course, the four thousand taels of silver could never be taken out by the Japanese themselves.
As the saying goes, the wool comes from the sheep. Although the Northeast is now controlled by the Russians, the Japanese have also controlled many bandits everywhere in the Northeast.
Just like the two Japanese in front of them, they controlled at least ten bandits like Yangjiazhai.
As the Supreme Emperor of these bandits, the two Japanese had a way to easily get four thousand taels of silver from other bandits...
After the two Japanese took Yang Xingguo's promise, they hurriedly left the village to raise money.
Wang Hu's eyes at Yang Xingguo changed again.
I originally thought that Yang Xingguo was already very powerful in the war. Unexpectedly, Yang Xingguo was so powerful in negotiations that he easily got 4,000 taels of silver from the Japanese.
You know, the other party is a Japanese, how dare he, Yang Xingguo...
Of course, these are all later stories... With the 4,000 taels of silver promised by the Japanese, Yang Xingguo, who was just worried about the future of Yangjiazhai, finally had a little more confidence.
Before Wang Hu and Zhou Zhongju could recall the shock just now, Yang Xingguo asked: "Second leader, second uncle, I want to know how much money the imperial court outside the mountain paid to ordinary soldiers... As far as I know, there are many mines opened by Russians in the mountains. In the mines, how much wages the Russians gave to absent from work..."
Not long after, Zhou Zhongju replied: "The court now has two types of troops. The new army can get 15 taels of silver in a year. As for the old army, it is thankful that they can get 10 taels of silver..."
"As for those absenteeism who mine for the Russians, they can get about fifteen taels of silver every year... but many absenteeism die in the mine every year, but they don't get compensation for one tael of silver..."
"Fifteen taels of silver a year, and you may even die at any time..." Hearing this, Yang Xingguo fell into deep thought.
Soon, Yang Xingguo's eyes shot out two rays of light.
Then, he affirmed to the two subordinates who were still puzzled, "Aren't we still discussing just now? The brothers in our hands are gone, and there is no place to replenish them... Now, I have a way..."
"In the past, when we snatched things from the village, we were left with the big head and the small head... In this case, it would be thankful that ordinary bandits could get ten taels of silver in a year."
"Now, I want to change this rule... I hand over all the things I snatched. As for ordinary brothers, no matter whether they have gained or not, they will pay two taels of silver every month according to the army... Those old and weak who stay in the parody will pay one tael of silver every month... And, as long as we accept it, the young and strong people who are willing to join our Yangjia Village will first pay twenty taels of settlement fee..."
"You said, in this way, will the young and strong people outside the mountain join our Yangjiazhai..."
At this time, Zhou Zhongju spoke: "In this way, you will definitely be able to recruit a lot of young and strong men from outside the mountain to join my Yangjiazhai!"
"Although the bandits' reputation is not very good, we give a lot of money..."
