Li De immediately approved the recruitment of new soldiers. His decision was not simple, and vanguard soldiers were very expensive.

Not to mention how much supplies and time it takes to train qualified soldiers, just talking about horses is a huge expense.

Even if the Youzhou Chamber of Commerce controls the cattle and horse market in Youzhou, the newly recruited soldiers need at least 300,000.

Thinking about the fact that 300,000 war horses are all a fearful expense.

Several lieutenants mentioned the matter of soldiers and horses, and Li De immediately placed the matter of recruiting soldiers and horses on the guards.

The people of Youzhou have a better life, and the number of children in the family has begun to increase. This time, the recruitment quota is highly valued for the people of Youzhou.

The news was spread as soon as possible. If there are regulations in Youzhou's government orders that meet the requirements, they must respond to recruitment. There is no saying that there is a military registration in Youzhou.

The work of the city guard office was fully carried out. In a few days, the barracks in the suburbs were filled with people. The people of Youzhou met the requirements and needed to respond.

The Pioneer Soldiers do not recruit soldiers on a large scale every year, so the quota is also precious. I would like to say why it is so easy to recruit so many people.

It can only be said that Youzhou now has a population base and is no longer the time to recruit in the surrounding area.

I thought it took a lot of effort to recruit soldiers and horses, and I had to go to the surrounding cities and counties. Now Youzhou has a large population, and it is easy to recruit 300,000 soldiers.

The pioneer soldiers will start training directly according to the post-recruitment practice. Those who fail to persevere in the previous week will be selected.

Pioneer soldiers need elite troops, so the screening method is very direct. Even if the unqualified person cannot pass, it will be considered a training session. Besides, the food for a week is free.

The treatment of the pioneer soldiers is very good. After all the unqualified ones leave, the insufficient quotas will continue to be recruited and will still be eliminated during training.

Only when everyone passes the first level will they hold a meeting and will be officially organized into the team. During the training period, multiple screenings will be carried out. The results during training are very important and will affect subsequent allocation.

Although the vanguard soldiers rarely go to war, they never relax. There are many internal troops, such as personal guards, escorts, vanguards, firearms, etc.

If the training is only qualified, the level of elite training cannot be achieved. Those who can stay will be arranged in the logistics team.

The work will be more dull when it comes to the fall. Although the vanguard is very harmonious within the vanguard, only with logistics can one have combat power.

Li De put recruitment first, and 300,000 cavalry was not easy to train, so the price of horses in cattle and horses increased again.

There are fewer horse reserves in Youzhou Niuma Store, but after recruiting soldiers, the fewer horses sold in the Niuma Store, which directly attracted the attention of many forces.

They can't help but not pay attention, and they are nervous about recruiting soldiers and horses in Youzhou.

No one knows how many vanguard soldiers there are in Youzhou until now, except for Youzhou, and even the people in Youzhou City guarding the palace are not clear.

The vanguard's affairs were independent from the establishment of the city guards, and the information on the troops also belonged to the confidential category.

Li De was a person who could prepare for the future. How could he not make any preparations? When Youzhou recruited troops the largest time, the number of vanguard troops at that time reached 700,000.

The reason why there are less than 400,000 in Youzhou is that many soldiers and horses are stationed in all parts of Youji Sixteen Prefectures.

There were three groups of soldiers transferred to the fishing city, each time there were 50,000 people transported from the sea. The next two times were used to guard the fishing city.

The 150,000 people were directly dispatched from Youzhou, and no troops from other prefectures were drawn at all.

The number of troops in Youzhou has decreased only in only one area. The lieutenants are so anxious to expand their troops, but on the one hand, they really need to replenish their troops, and on the other hand, they are to reserve troops.

Because according to the vanguard system, veterans can choose to retire every few years, these people will count in advance and make arrangements based on their individual service years and wishes.

The lieutenants' work is not just about training every day, but also about doing a lot of work. This time the retirement statistics have been counted, so there are recruiting soldiers to supplement them.

The pioneer soldiers are the foundation of the Youzhou forces. Li De attached great importance to it. At the current price of 300,000 war horses, the current price of the Youzhou cattle and horse market, requires at least 10 million guan.

It also costs nine million jin of money based on the cost price, plus the cost of military armor, Li De thinks that the Li family’s wealth is actually not much.

The commanders were all responsible for executing orders, so the money was still something he, the general, had to deal with.

"Notify the financial officer to raise five million pounds of money."

According to Youzhou's current annual tax revenue, it does not mean that you don't feel sorry for it. This is equivalent to taking away one-third of the wealth accumulated over the years.

No matter how confident I feel, I feel a little weak.

Li De had already predicted the consumption capacity of millions of troops. After recruiting this time, the vanguard army would increase the city guard's expenditure budget every year to pay at least 10% more.

When Li De left the city guard office and returned to the Governor's Office, the Governor's Office had prepared a dinner party and held a banquet when he came back from traveling. The family members were also very good looking at the lively atmosphere.

"Husband, the cost of recruiting troops is very large. Should the money house be temporarily slowed down?" Yang Yuer asked.

"No, the city guard's account is not bad. If the money house matters, it's just to work hard for the wife."

Li De has a lot of things and the money house matters involve the Li family. As the chief governor, he is not good at using all his experiences in this regard, and he always has to think about it and influence it.

Moreover, the financial problems of the city guard's house also have a lot of investment returns in addition to taxes. If the money house is built, the investment returns will be more.

It would be bad for the economy to put so much taxes in the treasury.

No matter when the economy is developed, he is the first priority. He doesn’t have to worry about recruiting soldiers and buying horses as long as he has money.

A few days later, Li De decided to open a Youzhou Money House, which would be more credible and the business loans could be carried out as usual, but there was an extra guarantee for the Li family. The money he borrowed through Youzhou Money House was more standardized and guaranteed.

Then the think tank and Youzhou Chamber of Commerce all intervened in the money shop and submitted a complete plan in half a month.

As the party to implement the plan, the Weili Chamber of Commerce solved the location of the money house, houses and other matters in a few days.

Suddenly, many people saw the extra money shop and thought it was strange. When everyone was curious, the Chamber of Commerce made publicity.

The people didn't care much after they found out. Instead, the businessmen began to pay attention to it. For them, the savings business was to make money with money, and what they paid more attention to was lending.
