"Too little?"

Yuan Bai was slightly surprised, he looked Heifu up and down, and said with some contempt: "Looking at Heifu's clothes, the family doesn't seem to be rich, how much money can you come up with?" ”

"I really don't have a lot of money." Heifu smiled: "But I can use myself as a bet, if I don't get the first place, I can personally go to the Yuanbai family to be a servant for two years, and plow the fields and farm for you, what's the matter?" ”

"Two years of servitude?" Yuan Bai was a little hesitant, but this black man has a strong physique, he should be a good way to do crop work, and he is known for his bravery, even if he is used to watch the family nursing home, he will not lose it.

So Yuan Bai stretched out four fingers and said: "A word is certain, if you can't be the first, you will be a servant for me for two years; If you really get the first place, I'll give you 4 golds! ”

"4 gold?"

Heifu laughed and said, "Yuanbai bullied me and didn't know how to count, 4 gold is 2304 money." As far as I know, a servant's salary for a day is at least 6 yuan, and he works day and night, and in two years, it is more than 4,000 yuan! Why is the price of your family's rent of servants so cheap? ”

Yuan Bai was exposed to the trick, his face turned red, and now, he was indeed a little unreasonable not to increase the price, so he had to grit his teeth and say: "Okay, if you get the first, I will give you four thousand dollars!" ”

Four thousand yuan, although it is not much, but for the current Heifu, it is a huge amount of money, and Heifu immediately bowed his head: "A word is a certainty!" ”

"Good!" Yuan Bai was also very happy, feeling that he had taken a big advantage, so he said: "I'm going to ask an acquaintance scribe in the county to come and write a deed for you and me, cut the wood into a letter, and never regret it!" ”

With that, Yuan Bai went back to Jiashi and told his subordinates about it, and he said it as a big joke, and the group of people immediately burst into laughter, and they all laughed at Heifu for being stupid and inadequate.

As everyone knows, after turning around, Heifu's heart was also happy, and he said secretly: "What is missing, I was worried about not enough money to spend a few days ago!" Four thousand dollars, it's coming! ”

"What's the chief, what did that Yuanbai tell you?" At this time, the other nine people in the Hafush also came over.

After Heifu told them everything he had just done, Ping, Ke, and Bu, who lived in the county seat, were suddenly shocked and said: "Shi Chang, you are afraid that you have been fooled, that Yuanbai, his family was originally a merchant in the Chu State, and he was very wealthy, and he often borrowed debts to ordinary soldiers and officials, and when he returned them, he would collect heavy profits. ”

Dongmen Leopard also said with a heavy face: "When my father was still alive, he also borrowed debts from the Yuanbai family, but when it came to repayment, it was a lot more!" ”

Heifu nodded, it seems that this Yuanbai family made a fortune by borrowing debts, although the Qin State also prohibits pledges as debt guarantees in the law, and those who cannot pay off their debts can be repaid with labor, but the Yuanbai family should be very careful to walk on the edge of the law.

He asked, "How did such a person be created?" ”

Dongmen Leopard said: "I remember that it was the fourth year of the king, there was a famine in the Qin country, and the king ordered that the soldiers could get the first-class title if they paid 1,000 stone of grain. This Yuanbai family was already a public scholar, and it was at that time that he paid a thousand stone of grain in one go and got the title of Shangzao. ”

It was the only time that the Qin State exchanged grain for a knight, but unfortunately Heifu didn't catch up, and even if he caught up, he didn't have food. 1,000 stone of grain, according to this year's grain price, is equivalent to 80,000 yuan, so it seems that this Yuanbai family is really rich.

At this time, the others also realized the seriousness of the matter, and Ping, Ke, and Wu couldn't help but complain, and it could be seen that they were afraid that Heifu would implicate themselves.

Heifu laughed: "The second and third sons are relieved, this matter is just a personal contract between me and Yuanbai, even if I lose, I will do things alone, and I have nothing to do with everyone." ”

Shizhong's Chaobo and the others breathed a sigh of relief, after all, they had only known Heifu for a few days, and there was no need to accompany him on this trip to troubled waters.

Only Ji Ying was so anxious that he was about to get angry out of concern, in his opinion, this matter was simply Heifu jumping into the fire pit by himself. He muttered: "I still have more than a thousand rewards to spend, if I can't get the first place at that time, I will give all this money to Yuanbai, so that the Heifu brothers can be less servants for a few months." ”

Although Ji Ying seems to be unreliable on weekdays, he is quite righteous at the critical moment, Heifu was a little moved, patted Ji Ying and said: "Hugh wants to say sad words, I believe that we will be able to win the championship!" ”

Dongmen Leopard agreed: "Yes! Hugh wants to say that those are useless, and then we must win the first place, let Yuanbai, let Jiashi, and all the others who look down on us have nothing to say. ”

However, the others still looked at each other without much reaction.

……

In the afternoon of this day, Yuan Bai really invited a scribe from the county as he said, plus Chen Bai will witness the two of them, write the deed, and cut the wood into a letter.

Half of the deed was handed into the hands of Hef, only to see that it read:

"Twenty-one years of October Wuzi, the county hundred general Chen, a certain scribe and other books: Yunmengxiang Gongshi Heifu said to himself, after ten days, he will die more than the most, if he can't get the most, he is willing to be a servant of the wall cypress and serve for two years for his cultivation. Shangzaoyuan Bai also said to himself, if the public man Heifu gets the most, he is willing to give 4,000 money to Heifu......"

After that, it was the two of them who signed their names.

At this point, this matter has not only been known to all the more people, but also is a certainty, with the protection of the law, if someone repents afterwards, the other party can go to the county jail, let the order enforce, equivalent to a private contract in the future, and have a notary.

Everyone thinks that this black man is really going farther and farther on the road of death, not only competing with General Binbai, but now he has signed this contract that looks like he must lose, and Heifu is walking on the road, and everyone in the school field is pointing at him.

After this incident, although Heifu still said it lightly, he also began to unconsciously step up the training of Bensh people.

But how easy is it for a group of peasant children who have almost no educational experience to learn to stop the intermittent transfer method, and to distinguish between turning left and right at the first time. And when turning backwards, there are always people who turn in the wrong direction, which looks very chaotic.

The experienced Chao Bo helped him think of a way to let everyone take off the shoes of his left foot and wear them only with his right foot, so that the number of mistakes he made was less.

Moreover, the training of the Qin army is not as good as the military training of later generations, it can be beaten, but if it is wrong, Heifu will go down with a stick mercilessly! Counting down, the three people in the county seat, Ping, Ke, and Can't, and some wooden peons are the ones who have been beaten the most.

However, Xiao Tao, who had few words, once again impressed Heifu, and he was actually the one who made the least mistakes in the team, and he couldn't help but praise a few words.

But even so, the overall progress was not fast, and their training stalled on the afternoon of October 4 and the morning of October 5. Add to that all kinds of worries, the fatigue of high-intensity training, and the confusion about Heifu's different way of training. In addition to Dongmen Leopard still being high-spirited, Xiao Tao silently comprehended, and Ji Ying reluctantly insisted, the morale of the people in Guishi was extremely low.

"It's not okay to go on like this......" During the meal, Ji Ying told Heifu about his concerns.

Heifu nodded, he knew that the exemption from next year's shift, the jug of wine, the reward of ten dried meats, and all kinds of punishments during training were no longer enough to keep the weak-willed people to the end. And the people, who are used to being looked down upon, are also indifferent to the cynicism of the others, and he needs to give them more stimulation.

So that afternoon, Heifu went to ask Chen Baijiang to let him take some time to come out and repair the leaky roof, although Chen Baijiang was a little dissatisfied, but this was a normal request, so he agreed.

So, in this afternoon, the people who have been tense for the past few days finally have a time to relax. Under the leadership of Heifu, they went to the school yard to find dry thatch, borrowed a ladder, repaired the thatched roof, and then pasted the thatch with mud and pressed it with wood. After it dries and hardens, there is no longer any need to worry about rain leakage when sleeping at night.

After this was done, everyone was a little happy to think that they would no longer have to be wet by the leaky rain at night, probably because they had worked together to shorten the distance between them, and they chatted lively, and the previous dullness was swept away, and Heifu tried to talk to everyone.

In his previous life, when he was a freshman military training instructor at a university, he also encountered similar problems, some male students did not cooperate, always made trouble, and the overall morale was very low. At this time, you can't just punish them, which will make them more negative about it, but you should try to communicate, get to know them, and even become their friends, so that the little boys who don't care about the world can actively participate in the training.

When the atmosphere was at its most enthusiastic, Heifu ignored the fact that his hands were still full of mud, and said to everyone: "Second and third sons, the reason why Heifu made a contract with Jiashiyuan Bai today is not for anything else, but for a breath!" Yuan Bai expected that we would be defeated, Jiashi laughed at us, and the other guards also thought that we would never win the first place, but Heifu believed that you could do it, and I hope you also believed in Heifu......"

"What's that?"

Everyone was a little moved, and after saying this, Heifu raised his head and said the most crucial point.

"When the big competition is over, if you have the most, in addition to the meat and wine rewarded by the county lieutenant, the four thousand yuan, Heifu will never swallow it alone, and he should share the money with the second and third sons!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes lit up!
