Hua Zixuan asked Wu Ling what a war servant race was.

Wu Ling: "The Battle Servant Race is the most popular entertainment on Mars. There is no electricity on Mars, so there is no entertainment related to electricity, let alone movies, television, and mobile phones.

So the Martians have to be entertained, right?

Singing, opera, and the like are all luxuries, which only the city lord and some big slave owners can afford. Because these people who are engaged in art are very good on Earth, they will not immigrate to Mars.

Therefore, there was a slave gladiatorial fight in ancient Rome on Mars, and the slaves who participated in the gladiatorial fight were called war servants, of course, the death was in vain, and no one was responsible for the death of the war servants. ”

Hua Zixuan asked again: "What's going on with the King's Cup?"

Wu Ling: "Every year after the southern hemisphere of Mars enters winter, the climate here becomes extremely harsh, and people's outdoor activities basically stop. From this moment on, the top eight teams of the war servant team in Hellas City were summoned by the city lord for the final competition, and the final strong one would win the King's Cup. ”

Gasol: "Just a broken trophy?"

Wu Ling: "This trophy is not ordinary, it is made of pure gold, melted down, and can mint 500 gold coins." ”

"Five hundred?" Hua Zixuan and Gasol looked at each other, "You can redeem fifty slaves." ”

Wu Ling sneered: "Theoretically, no slave master would do this." I don't know how many servants are killed in the annual war servant competition, and how many slave owners go bankrupt because of this, and it is a great risk to get these five hundred gold coins. ”

Hua Zixuan: "Dad, since the risk of the War Servant Race is so great, and you are old, how good would it be for you to keep the fifty gold coins we bought to enjoy your old age?"

Wu Ling smiled weirdly, "I, people are not old-hearted, I must dance with the little lady of the city lord to be willing." ”

At this time, Wu Wei came out of the house, rubbing her hand on her apron, "It's time to eat." ”

Gasol tilted his head, "I bet it's not a big meal, if it's a big meal, it won't be able to do it in such a short time." I suspect, it's baked potatoes or boiled potatoes, right?"

Hua Zixuan: "No, I just heard the sound of hot oil coming into the pot." ”

Gasol was overjoyed, "Yes, let's go, let's see what delicious food the girl has made for us?"

There was only a few things to eat and sleep in the house, and there was no furniture.

There are no tall trees on Mars, everything that needs to be made of wooden planks is a luxury, and wooden furniture is only available to the aristocracy.

Hua Zixuan and Gasol entered the house, saw a pot of vegetables on the table, and pulled their faces down, "Fried shredded potatoes?"

Gasol said to Wu Wei: "The first day we came to your house, why don't you let us eat something good?"

Wu Wei shrugged, "I've already said it, in order to buy you two, my family almost smashed the pot and sold iron, usually my father and I are reluctant to eat oil in order to save money, and the potatoes are boiled and roasted." ”

Gasol: "Did the potatoes provoke you? Why do you Martians eat it all at once?"

Wu Ling came in from outside the house, sat on the stone bench, and then motioned for Hua Zixuan and Gasol to sit down as well, and said:

"Mars has a harsh natural environment, and the crops that can be grown in a large area are the most productive potatoes, so the poor eat it. ”

Wu Ling gave each person a bowl of shredded potatoes and sniffed it, "Hmm...... I haven't seen oil in months!"

Hua Zixuan and Gasol looked at each other, and the word 'regret' was written on their faces, "Eight lifetimes of blood mold, how can you be such a poor slave master?"

The puppy Harpy came in with his tail wagged, and Wu Ling didn't forget to give it a copy.

Gasol said to Wu Wei: "Sister, what do you eat as a staple food?"

Wu Wei glanced at Gasol, "I'm sure you're the only slave in Hellas City who dares to call your master a sister." Also, we only have potatoes to eat, but the method is different. Even potatoes can't be eaten by you, we only eat two meals a day, and our potatoes are only enough to eat for two days. ”

Gasol and Hua Zixuan looked at each other again, their faces full of despair.

After eating, it was already dark, Hua Zixuan asked Wu Ling, "Dad, can you introduce us to the rules of the War Servant Competition." ”

Wu Ling stood up and coughed twice, "I'll go out for a walk and let Wu Wei tell you." He said to Wu Wei again: "Arrange accommodation for the two of them." ”

Wu Ling said that, walked out with his hands behind his back, and his coughing sound was heard in the distance.

After Wu Ling left, Hua Zixuan asked Wu Wei: "Daddy took such a big risk to fight the War Servant Competition, just to dance with the little lady of the city lord?

"No!" Wu Wei said as she cleaned up the table, "I also want to dance with the City Lord's wife." ”

Hua Zixuan frowned, "What nonsense! No matter what your purpose, if we can help you get the King's Cup, you have to redeem yourself for the two of us." ”

Wu Wei: "That's for sure, if we can survive to the end." ”

Hua Zixuan: "We?"

Wu Wei: "Yes, I want to participate too." ”

Hua Zixuan: "How many people do you want to participate in the Warrior Servant Competition?"

Next, Wu Wei introduced the rules of the Battle Servant Competition.

The Warservant team is made up of a maximum of three people, and if you are confident enough, you can also fight the other three by yourself, of course, no one will be so stupid.

The rules of the Servant Tournament are very simple, as long as the opponent is beaten to the point that he can't get up, or the opponent surrenders, he will win. The premise is that you must be bare-handed and cannot bring any weapons.

The two sides of the War Servant Match are free to fight, that is, which team you want to fight with, you can go to the battle book, and as long as the other party is willing, you can go to the gladiatorial arena to fight.

The Colosseum was near the Slave Auction House, a building that resembled the Colosseum in ancient Rome.

Generally, the strength of both sides of the war should be about the same, because only in this way can there be something to watch, and there will be more audiences, and only when there are more audiences, the teams of the two sides will get more shares. After all, the fundamental purpose of the slave master to spend money to form a clan is still to make money.

Now Wu Ling's team is still facing a problem, that is, if the war servant team wants to participate in the gladiatorial arena, they must go to the War Servant Guild to register, and they have to pay a registration fee of ten gold coins, but where do Wu Ling's ten gold coins come from?

When sleeping at night, Hua Zixuan and Gasol slept in the same room and laid bunks. The Martians basically slept on the floor, or because of the lack of wood. Mars doesn't rain, so the ground won't get wet.

Before dawn, Hua Zixuan and Gasol were called up, it was Wu Ling.

Gasol rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked, "Dad, what do you want to do in the middle of the night?"

Wu Ling: "Get up and train!"

Gasol protested: "Training should also be dawn!"

Wu Ling: "Don't talk nonsense, do whatever the master wants you to do!"

Gasol and Hua Zixuan came to the courtyard, and Wu Ling was waiting for them with his hands behind his back.

Wu Ling coughed twice from time to time.

Gasol: "Dad, it's unscientific to exercise in the morning......"

"Shut up, follow me!" Wu Ling walked lightly and ran ahead.

Hua Zixuan and Gasol followed Wu Ling and ran wildly until they reached the outside of the city, and the sky was already dark.

Every spring, when the city of Hellas was fortified with its walls, the lord would hire a number of slaves from the master of the slave to work, and the work was piece-rated, and the slave would earn ten copper coins for each brick of salt that he moved to the wall.

The city wall was built with four or five hundred pounds of large salt bricks. The Martian winter is very windy, and some of the upper salt blocks are badly weathered and need to be replaced with new ones.

Wu Ling found the foreman who built the city and introduced two of his slaves to him.

Gasol asked Wu Ling, "Daddy, are you sure that carrying salt is part of your training?"

Wu Ling said to Gasol and Hua Zixuan with certainty: "Moving salt cubes is the most meaningful training on Mars. ”

The two of them looked unhappy.

The foreman asked Wu Ling, "Did you bring tools?"

Wu Ling: "Tools, what tools?"

The foreman pointed to the slaves who were working, "How can one person move such a heavy salt brick, two slaves need to tie it up with a rope and then carry it with a pole." ”

"Oh!" Wu Ling smiled disdainfully, "Such a small salt brick, let my servants carry it, this is an insult to them, they have to carry one piece each." ”

Gasol hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, Dad, it's not a shame for four people to carry such a heavy piece of salt." ”

Wu Ling ignored Gasol and said to the foreman: "If they are disobedient, you will be scolded." ”

"Alright!" the foreman flicked his whip into the air with a snap.

The foreman said to Hua Zixuan and Gasol: "Don't force me to beat you, if you want to blame, blame your master, go and use your shoulders to carry the salt bricks to the city!"

Wu Ling: "Obedient children, otherwise I won't give you food at night!"

Hua Zixuan and Gasol had to carry it.

At noon, the construction site cooks rice, which is baked potato chips, and there is also a name for potato chips.

After one day, Hua Zixuan carried 170 salt bricks, and Gasol carried 150 pieces, each with 10 copper coins, earning 3,200 copper coins, which is 32 when converted into silver coins.

Wu Ling appeared at the time of the harvest, he went to settle the salary as soon as possible, and said to the foreman, "We will come back tomorrow." ”

The foreman was also satisfied, "If they are all as capable as your slaves, the construction period will only need one-tenth of the original time to complete." ”

Hua Zixuan and Gasol were lying on the ground resting, Wu Ling came over and kicked them gently, "Hurry up, you guys will bruise the blood if you stop suddenly like this, you won't be able to do it tomorrow, hurry up and move slowly." ”

The two rubbed their waists and got up, "Dad is not all inhuman, and he knows that he feels sorry for us." ”

"Let's go, I'll take you for a walk. Wu Ling walked in front, holding the silver coins he earned, "The money for buying clothes for you is back." ”

Wu Ling led them into the farmland.

In front of them, Hua Zixuan and Gasol had never planted a field, so they didn't know what kind of crop it was, but this vibrant scene also made them feel a lot more comfortable.

"Daddy is so caring, take us to relax. ”

In the vegetable garden ahead, farmers are picking vegetables.

Wu Ling stepped forward and asked, "Does my brother need help?"

Hua Zixuan and the others had a bad premonition, what did this old man want to do?

Farmer: "It would be nice if someone could help, but it won't be paid." ”

Wu Ling: "Just give us some potatoes that you can't eat." ”

Farmer: "Deal!"

Hua Zixuan and Gasol: "Let this old fox be deceived again!"

At night, Hua Zixuan and Gasol almost crawled back, tired.

The two came back with a bag of potatoes in their jackets.

Wu Wei was turning over in the courtyard to practice martial arts, and when she saw the embarrassed two, she pulled a strand of black hair in front of her forehead and said with a smile: "Today's harvest is not small, right?"

Gasol poured the potatoes to the ground, "When I'm on Earth, I can make millions of dollars by fighting a game, when have I ever made people so bad!"

Wu Wei smiled a little gloatingly.

Hua Zixuan: "Sister Wei, we haven't eaten dinner yet." ”

Wu Wei: "You have your rice in the pot." ”

Gasol: "Stir-fried shredded potatoes again!"

Wu Wei: "It's not fried shredded potatoes, it's stewed potato chips!"

Hua Zixuan and Gasol collapsed to the ground, "Did the potatoes provoke you?"

After eating, Hua Zixuan and Gasol came outside the house.

Wu Wei was lying on the roof looking at the moon.

Hua Zixuan jumped and easily went to the roof, thanks to the small gravitational pull of Mars.

Hua Zixuan: "Is the moon on Mars any different from that on Earth?"

Wu Wei Nunu mouthed, "See for yourself." ”

Hua Zixuan looked up at the sky and couldn't help but exclaim, "Two moons?"
