Chapter 236: Seeking Wealth and Danger
"Wow......"
In an instant, exclamations rang out!
White-flour steamed buns, this is definitely a luxury food. Of course, for those who rely on eating tree bark and Guanyin soil in front of them.
This white-flour steamed bun is definitely a big temptation, confusing, no one has ever gotten so many white-flour steamed buns from the previous gold owners, especially these steamed buns brought by Mao Wenlong are absolutely fresh on the surface.
Looking at the onlookers, the eyes that leaked out of their eyes and the look on their faces, Mao Wenlong immediately understood. Why would Yuzhong be so confident to do this for himself?
Yuzhong's face was full of pride, since he saw the color of the steamed buns brought by Mao Wenlong, he knew that Mao Wenlong was indeed as rumored, Yexian was a rich place.
Just imagine, even if it is the military rations issued by the imperial court, how much sand or sundries are mixed in it. And at this time, no matter which steamed bun is made, who would have the luxury to make it with such high-quality noodles?
A simple steamed bun can already fully show Mao Wenlong's strength, which Yuzhong is convinced of.
"The white flour steamed buns from the best noodles are absolutely not mixed with any sundries. It's here, and I'm sure everyone should see it. This time, the gold lord needs a lot of manpower, as long as you have good skills or young strength, then congratulations, the gold lord wants. Without further ado, start now! ”
Yuzhong proudly howled in front of all the onlookers, and then ordered his son Yuwei to take his original men and horses and go down to pick people in person.
Soon, the crowd of onlookers was divided into three groups, those who were young and strong, with a little bit of work on their hands, and those who were singled out to be substandard.
Yuzhong walked quickly in front of Mao Wenlong, hugged his fists and asked for instructions: "Chief soldier, now that the people have been distinguished, preliminary estimates, there are nearly 10,000 people here today, of which about 3,000 do not meet your recruitment standards, and the remaining 7,000 or so meet your recruitment standards." ”
Mao Wenlong was quite satisfied with this base, he nodded and said, "Then start sending steamed buns to recruit people!" ”
Yuzhong smiled at this time: "Chief soldier, the villain has an idea, I don't know if to talk about it?" ”
Mao Wenlong glanced at Yuzhong unexpectedly and chuckled: "If you have something to say, just say it." ”
Yuzhong didn't dare to slack off, and immediately explained: "That's the case, the gold owners who came here all hope to select the strongest and best people. Therefore, when distributing food, it is generally thrown out directly for them to grab, and whoever grabs more will naturally have the ability, which is clear at a glance. ”
Mao Wenlong immediately glanced at Chen Jisheng, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Mao Wenlong chuckled: "I didn't expect there to be such rules here, it's very good, just do what you say." But in this way, wouldn't there be casualties later? ”
Yuzhong explained nonchalantly: "General soldiers, casualties are inevitable, of course, these people who want to participate in the food grabbing will also have self-knowledge." If you don't think you have that ability or are afraid of death, you won't participate. ”
Mao Wenlong was stunned, so he didn't say anything more, and signaled Yuzhong to start immediately.
After Yuzhong received the order, he returned to the carriage and shouted condescendingly: "The old rule, the gold lord needs some good people, so there will be a competition for food next." The rules are the same, and those who want to participate come to the front to sign up on their own, and they will be responsible for their own casualties. ”
All the people looked indifferent, they were obviously accustomed to such things, and they did not cause the slightest wave.
Soon, some conceited men came forward to sign up one after another. They all understand that this is their chance to live a truly good life in one step, and as long as they can win this game, they will inevitably be reused by the gold owner in the future.
And this also means that as soon as they run to the past, they will be one level higher than others. High rewards come with high risks, and because of the avoidance of cheating, the game is a matter of life and death.
There is a high probability that the participants will die in the game, and the probability of this will be very high, because the game is a melee for every 100 people, which is equivalent to killing the enemy on the battlefield, and the danger is everywhere.
However, today's Mao Wenlong is obviously the most luxurious financier in recent times, and as soon as he came, he pulled three carts full of rare white-flour steamed buns, which shows that his strength is not trivial. When Yuzhong began to call for registration, unexpectedly, the people who signed up were very popular.
After a small commotion, the number of people who signed up was counted and reached about 500. This is absolutely unprecedented, and Yuzhong is so excited that he is shaking all over.
Without superfluous nonsense, the game was divided into five and started at the same time.
Five hundred white-flour steamed buns were brought out, and under an order from Yuzhong, they were scattered to the more than 500 people who were distinguished.
The shouts sounded as soon as possible, and the participants rushed to the steamed buns that had not yet landed with their bare hands.
Immediately on the playing field, there were screams, angry scolding, and violent shouts.
And the onlookers are not at all more negative than the people in the game, and even they are more enthusiastic, cheering for their companions, and there are many people who are not idle when they see the excitement.
In short, the whole clearing seemed to come to life in an instant, and there was still the lifeless appearance of before.
At first, the five hundred people who were separated were able to fight on their own, but the situation quickly got out of control, and soon it became five hundred people fighting at the same time.
This time the situation is even more tragic, and the casualties on the field of play are gradually expanding, just like killing the enemy on the real battlefield, in order to grab more steamed buns, win this game. Someone has used any trick, sneak attack, and it is even more commonplace to make a secret move.
However, Mao Wenlong and Chen Jisheng have always paid attention to the five men on the field who have always been allied, and these five people have advanced and retreated together from the beginning. Unlike others, who are all fighting on their own, the five of them are all fighting steadily, and they don't have any advantages at first, but after a long time, the advantages of the alliance between the five of them immediately appeared.
"Do you think these five people will be able to win later?" Mao Wenlong asked Chen Jisheng beside him lightly.
"If nothing else, they will be the ones who will win. And these five people should not be ordinary people, they should all be veterans who have been on the battlefield. Chen Jisheng made an assertion without hesitation.
"How so?" Mao Wenlong couldn't see the doorway inside.
"The formation of these five people seems to be unremarkable, but it is definitely an experienced veteran on the battlefield who can cooperate so tacitly. Moreover, they fought steadily and steadily, never greedy for merit, and congratulated the general army on their victory and recruited good talents. Chen Jisheng patted the horse lightly, but stared at the five people in the light, thinking about how to get these five people under his command.
