“Sell insurance!”

For two copper coins, you can buy an adult man to promote your business. If you add two more copper coins, the sound of his promotion can be heard by people within a hundred meters.

As for this makeshift stall, Windlow was giving final training to a young girl.

"That's the trick, got it? If anyone asks you a question that's not in your trick, come to me."

As an imperial merchant and a basic noble, Windlow no longer does business himself.

In the past, when I was an ordinary merchant, I had to consider various situations, do sales myself, and shout loudly myself, but now, of course, all of this can be outsourced.

The necklines of young girls had to be pulled down very low, and if Windlow was willing to pay a little more, it could be pulled down even lower.

This is undoubtedly very attractive to people who are about to face the war.

After all, any commander with normal IQ would prohibit soldiers in the army from soliciting prostitutes to reduce their combat effectiveness when a battle is about to break out.

Many people were attracted by the beauty, and they were all curious about the word "insurance" that was shouted out.

The girl also used the words she had prepared in advance and began to recite this new thing.

"Pay the insurance fee of one silver coin now. If you lose your left hand in the upcoming battle at Blackfire Pass, I will compensate you with three silver coins. If you lose your right hand, I will compensate you with five silver coins. If you lose both hands, I will compensate you with eight silver coins."

"If you lose one leg, you will be compensated with 2 silver coins. If you lose both legs, you will be compensated with 10 silver coins."

"If you die in battle, I will compensate your family members who left their contact information with you with 20 silver coins!"

There is such a good thing?

You know, joining the army in the Empire is not a particularly lucrative job.

Not to mention the pitifully low salaries of provincial soldiers, most of a soldier's income comes from war.

Once war breaks out and the provincial troops need to go to the front line, their wages will increase, and the wealth looted through the war can also be distributed to every soldier.

However, the retirement pay in the provincial army was very low. One could only get a few silver coins when retiring from the army. If one retired due to injury, the maximum compensation would be three weeks' salary.

If you die in battle, you will have nothing.

The launch of this insurance business by Windlow just happens to meet the soldiers' current urgent needs, that is, wealth insurance.

For the soldiers, their only tool to make money is their own body. If this body is broken, they will naturally not be able to continue to obtain living resources.

Most retired soldiers could only get a few silver coins in retirement pay. In addition, various small nobles in the empire lobbied the big nobles, resulting in the small nobles eating up all the land compensation that should have been given to them.

If you retire with everything intact, you can still be healthy and continue to make money.

But if they are injured and retired, how will they solve the problem of the first wave of food rations? Some soldiers even have families, and if they die, their families will immediately run out of food.

This insurance gives them a new option.

Even if you are injured, you can still get a few silver coins to solve the urgent problem.

Besides, everyone had more or less money before the war because of the triple military pay, so using it to buy insurance was also a way of giving yourself an insurance policy.

The only problem is, why do soldiers think you will compensate them after they buy insurance?

Of course, there is no good explanation for this Windlow.

Insurance is a new thing and has not yet been recognized or verified by anyone.

Secondly, in terms of title, he was just an ordinary baron, and the imperial prestige he possessed was not enough to gain everyone's trust.

Only by joining a gang can you gain everyone's trust, which is not a difficult thing. It is just a case of taking advantage of the power of another.

While the people he hired were shouting and explaining the business, Windlow also found a few big shots, hoping to get more credit guarantees.

Among all the nobles present, the noble with the greatest legal power in the empire received Wendlow.

Karl Franz himself expressed great interest in this so-called insurance.

As the emperor of the empire and the supreme commander of all the armies at present, Karl Franz immediately realized the importance of insurance on the battlefield.

What the imperial troops lack most is the ability to hold the line, and within the ability to hold the line, morale is a huge problem.

Although there are few armies in the world with stronger morale than the Empire, the Imperial Army relies too much on morale.

Since the emergence of firearms, the melee capabilities of the imperial troops have almost plummeted, and all damage output tasks have fallen on ranged infantry and artillery.

In order to ensure that the long-range infantry and artillery can output as continuously as possible, the front-line infantry must hold the line.

People always have various concerns. Once the concerns increase, morale will naturally become low.

If a person has no worries, there is no need to worry about his morale collapsing.

As soon as Karl Franz understood the meaning of this so-called insurance concept, he immediately agreed to endorse Windlow.

It seemed that he had seen this newly promoted imperial nobleman a long time ago. At that time, he was still an imperial merchant. Unexpectedly, in just a few years, he used his own wealth to buy the title of baron.

This also proves that he is quite capable. Emperor Karl Franz only needs to spend some prestige for this matter, and he doesn't even have to pay a copper coin, so he naturally agreed to help.

He took out his seal and asked Windlow to stamp insurance policy after insurance policy.

With the emperor’s personal endorsement and guarantee, the insurance sold out immediately.

Because for all soldiers, they only face three situations.

First, if you don't buy insurance and you get killed in battle, it doesn't matter to you, because you're dead, but it's not worth it if you don't leave a penny to your family.

Second, if you didn't buy insurance and still survived, this would be the best situation.

Third, if you don’t buy insurance and get injured, you will have no choice but to retire. You may even spend money lavishly and end up having no money to spend after retirement.

Fourth, I bought insurance, wasn't injured, and the loss was only 1 silver coin. Before the war, my salary was triple, so I didn't particularly need the money.

Fifth, if you buy insurance and get injured, you can still get a good compensation for your losses.

And the most important thing is that it has the genuine endorsement from the emperor himself. In other words, as long as you buy insurance and meet the requirements, you will definitely get insurance compensation.

Almost all soldiers bought insurance worth one silver coin from Wendlow.

With an income of a full twenty gold coins, is there a possibility that after the battle, Windlow will face the problem of losses?
