Chapter 6912 The old ten is the enemy who kills his mother 148
As soon as the imperial edict was issued, although everyone had various discussions, most of them still followed it.
If any of the rich and powerful families didn't have a few warriors, they would agree to send one of them to protect the city. When the situation became so dangerous, they would send retainers to separate the various escort teams for emergency response.
Fortunately, basically all families with many warriors take turns to take up the duties. It only takes a few days or even half a month for a turn, and there is not much to say. The heads of the family will also give more money as a reward for this, and it is a major event to protect the family and the country.
, all agreed.
It would be different if there were no warriors in the family. A thousand taels of silver a day was too much. They all complained, but there was not even a warrior in the family. Naturally, they were all middle and lower class. It was useless to complain at this time, and they could only take the money.
The money is used as compensation, lest any of these unhappy officials take away the family's shop and land, which would cause trouble.
After all, no one is willing to go against the government unless there is an emergency.
At this time, people are willing to hire wandering warriors. For example, in the past, it was good to have a few hundred taels a year for a first-grade warrior retainer. Now, these people are willing to hire these warriors back for a thousand taels or even two thousand taels a month. Naturally, the market is bullish.
.
Even Shura Shiye, who was staying in a hotel, had dozens of people come to him that day, and the price rose from 2,000 taels to 5,000 taels.
After all, we don’t know how many days it will take to attack the city. If we retreat in two or three days, it will not be worth spending too much money.
Shura Shiye naturally refused. He still had to accompany his family to have a kiss every day. How could he be willing to work for others for a few thousand taels of silver at such a dangerous time?
Shura Shiye is the kind of person who always thinks that a few thousand taels is small money even though he has very little money. This weirdo has extremely strong self-confidence and always thinks that he is a great person. Anyway, his status is higher than that of a prince like Yan Zhaoxuan.
Much more, he never thought that he was not worthy of Yuan Wense. Even if Yuan Wense was rich, beautiful and capable, he still felt that the two of them were a perfect match.
Yuan Wense naturally doesn't care, there are three warriors in her family.
In addition to Zu Chongliang, Yuan Wense's family also had a guard chief who was a warrior. However, this guard chief had never been very obedient, so this time he was directly transferred to the front line.
Although the captain of the guard was very dissatisfied, his contract was still within the statute of limitations. After handing over his list and people to the government, there was no fear that he would not go.
There are still two warriors, Zu Chongliang and Niu Er, left in Yuan Wense's family, so there is no need to worry about their safety.
Instead, there was a letter from her former friend Gu Xizhi, who shyly asked her if she could borrow a warrior.
There were several warriors in her family, but her mother was not very favored, so her father sent out a warrior next to Gu Xi's mother and daughter. As a result, they now had no strong guards and were very scared.
It is a difficult book for a family to recite.
Yuan Wense felt that the little girl Gu Xizhi was quite nice. When she first came here, the little girl also supported her in front of others. It was rare for a little girl to do that at such an inexplicable time, so she sent him
Niu Er went over to help for a few days.
Gu Xizhi didn't send any more letters, and just asked the girl to come over and express her gratitude. The Gu family sent a lot of jade items. Because they knew the original text of "Se Loves Jade", most of the items they sent were decent items, worth thousands of silver.
Yuan Wense didn't know if this was considered an exchange of equal value, but she did have a good impression of Gu Xizhi, so she accepted it without mentioning how close she was to the little girl. After all, her reputation wasn't very good now, so she wouldn't get involved in such things.
