Chapter 272 As long as it is money, it is not a problem
The Mutian Marquis Mansion is very large, not even below the Prince's Mansion in Qinglong City. As the highest-ranking noble in Panlong City, the Yang family is like a local emperor in Panlong City. Even if there are several marquises of the same status here, they are not as big as the Mutian Marquis Mansion.
Although scale does not represent everything, it is a powerful symbol of status. At least in Panlong City, no one dares to ignore the words from the Yang family. However, Yang Ye still saw the destruction and twilight in this huge marquis mansion.
Although he arrived at the corridors and courtyards of the old house in the deep courtyard along the way were brightly painted and even big red lanterns were hung, after lunch and a short rest, Yang Ye couldn't sleep, so he asked someone to accompany him to visit the Hou's Mansion.
The buildings of the Marquis' Mansion are also arranged according to the central axis. The front yard is the place where the Marquis' Mansion handles various things. Two civil and military yamen were set up in the outer government, and several rooms were set up at the bottom of the yamen. The regulations were a bit like the cabinets in the imperial court, but they were only reduced in size, in charge of fiefdoms and all external affairs, including the Yang family's personal guards. On the east side of the front yard, there was a schoolyard, with five hundred personal guards stationed, stables, warehouses, etc., and on the right there was a warehouse and the courtyard of the inner ministers in the mansion.
The atrium is a core, which is the office of the Marquis Mu Tian of all dynasties, and is also responsible for welcoming the guests and receiving imperial edicts. The inner palace is also set up here, in charge of major affairs and minor affairs of the Marquis' Mansion, and hundreds of servants and maids in the mansion. On the left and right sides, there are living areas for servants. Later, the inner courtyard is divided into two parts, east and west courtyard, which is where Yang Ye's family lives, and the east courtyard lives with relatives of the Yang family.
Behind the backyard is Houhu Garden. Here, a narrow artificial lake occupies two or three hundred acres of land, with water pavilions, flower gardens, and even several small buildings that enjoy the wind, which can be lived in!
Just walking out of a few corridors, the entire Marquis' Mansion seemed to have faded its youth. Although it was still clean, the pillars in the corridor had begun to lose their paint. The further away, the farther they went, the remote place, as long as the uninhabited yard was covered with weeds, and it was completely ruined.
Yang Ye walked around without saying a word. In the huge Marquis' Mansion, there were few servants who could see. Apart from the lively moment, there were no figures at this moment. After a circle, he walked into a bamboo forest, which was already in the Houhai Garden. However, it was obvious that the location of this bamboo forest was very remote, so he didn't take much care of it.
"Yang dare to do it, right?" Yang Ye breathed the fragrance of bamboo around him and said calmly as much as possible: "If I remember correctly, you seem to be one of the managers in the Hou Mansion. If I have something to ask you, you must answer truthfully!"
Yang Dandang was in his early twenties. In short, he was also a distant relative of Yang Ye. However, he had already been out of seven or eight years of service. He had been serving the Marquis' Mansion since his grandfather and became a servant. He was selected to listen to Yang Ye's assignment. First, he was old and capable, otherwise he would not be able to capture Dongfang Qian's eyes.
"Even if the prince asks, the old lady has instructed her to try to satisfy her requirements for the prince. If you want to know, you will say whatever you dare to be sure!" Yang Dandang did not have too much flattery, and seemed to have been prepared long ago, so she was waiting for Yang Ye to ask.
Yang Ye was still very satisfied with his attitude and said, "I think there seems to be no one in many places in the Marquis' Mansion, and there are no one to clean up some places. If the entire Marquis' Mansion is to operate normally, how many maids will need in the mansion's mailbox?"
Yang Gandang pondered for a while, but Yang Ye stopped, turned his head and looked at Yang Gandang and said, "What, don't you know?"
Yang Gandang shook his head and said lowly: "There are 637 first-class, second-class and third-class servitude servants, of which 382 female servants are less than ten years ago. If you want to ensure the normal operation of the entire Marquis' Mansion, you will have at least 800 male servants, and at least 600 female servants!"
"Oh, that is to say, one thousand four hundred people are required to ensure the normal operation of the Marquis' Mansion?"
"This is the lowest number of people. Our Marquis Mansion covers an area of 300 yuan. In addition to daily maintenance and the maintenance of Houhai Garden, it must be at least 500 people. This is not included in the front yard. There are temporary short-term workers there, and the guards are responsible for raising mounts. In addition, they serve the old lady, are responsible for the maids in each yard, and allocate them to the Miss Cast, and the minimum specifications of the maids in the Miss Hall!"
“What if it’s open?”
"That's about two thousand!" Yang Gan Dang replied.
"Then you follow this number. You need the best ones to sign a lifelong death contract according to this number!" Yang Ye came back this time, although he did not bring a lot of gold and silver tickets, Yang Ye was not short of money at all. The Ninth Bank opened smoothly. As long as nothing unexpected happened, a lot of money would be sent soon. Not to mention that before Nalan Bingyue left, she gave Yang Ye 10 million of the remaining money after building the Ninth Super League Castle. Yang Ye was not short of money.
Although Yang Ye didn't know how difficult the Hou Mansion was, Yang Shengcai also said that the Hou Mansion was short of money. As Panlong City, the first family must have the temperament of the first family.
"But...!" Yang Dan subconsciously wanted to stop him. Although he was only a third-class manager, he could also contact the finances of the Marquis' Mansion. It was very difficult to maintain the current situation, not to mention recruiting more than twice as many people as possible. Moreover, the money was spent every year, at least 200,000 to 300,000 gold coins, and signing a lifelong contract was even more expensive.
"If it's a money issue, it's not a problem. Yang Zhong, go back and send one million gold coins to the account in the mansion. This money will be used to recruit people. In addition, repair all the marquis's mansion. If it's not enough, find Yang Zhong!"
"ah!"
"I ask you, how many personal guards are there in our Marquis' Mansion now? How much is the monthly salary?" Yang Ye continued to ask.
Yang Gandang was a little unrecovered and said subconsciously: "The Marquis' Mansion now has the Eighth Battalion of the Queen Guard, including the first Battalion of Female Guards. The rated number of female guards in the Queen Guards is 600, and the female guards are reduced by half. There are 4,500 people in total, and the salary is six gold coins per month! At the end of the year, there will be rewards!"
"How many? Six gold coins per month!" Yang Ye thought he had missed the news. Six gold coins per month. Damn, the group of city guards in the imperial capital who only know how to eat and drink have a monthly salary of eight gold coins per month. My private army of the Marquis's Marquis's Mansion only has six gold coins per month.
"Yeah! Prince, is there any problem?"
"The problem is big. This is the private soldiers and personal guards of the Marquis' Mansion. I work hard for me. I have a six-month gold medal. What are you kidding!"
"That's right, there are too few that. The ordinary miscellaneous soldiers of the Ninth Supervisor Battalion have thirty gold coins a month, at least one hundred soul masters, double the soul lieutenant, and double the soul general!" Yang Zhong also nodded fiercely from the side. Following Yang Ye, spending money like water. Yang Zhong's immunity to money has greatly improved. With six gold coins, he couldn't even buy a table of wine and food.
