Chapter 133 Task: Rent Collection
Regarding how to absorb the soldiers in Zigui City to work, Li Yan was ready to go to Zigui City again on the grounds of collecting rent, but Wei Minsheng said: "You are now the minister of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, how can you quickly open up the situation by doing everything yourself?" Moreover, there is no need to put yourself in danger of such a certain danger.
'Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case', it's okay to know that we are powerful, but I'm afraid that those who don't know the height of the sky, in case something irreparable happens, it will be useless to break his body into ten thousand pieces.
So, in the future, if there is a danger like this, you should make full use of our task publishing platform and place a task.
The mission must explain the risks that exist, so that people who are willing to do it even though they know that their lives are at stake can be recruited as peripheral members or even full members.
Since they are willing to pay with their lives for the benefit of the lodge and everyone, then I will promise them a future. ”
When Li Yan heard this, the lord was thinking about his own safety everywhere, and it was impossible to say that he was not moved in his heart.
This method proposed by Wei Minsheng can not only solve the problem of insufficient manpower in the Ministry of Foreign Trade, but also promote it together with all parties and rapidly expand the scope of foreign trade.
So after Li Yan and Wei Minsheng discussed, they issued the first task of the Ministry of Foreign Trade through Xiaobao.
……
Early the next morning, next to the TV screen in the auction hall outside the villa, an official member of the villa named He Mao was explaining the relevant tasks to these illiterate people, which is now a position that all those who have passed the assessment of the villa must go through, it is said that it is to familiarize everyone with some affairs of the villa as soon as possible, and it is also a test of the knowledge learned.
If there are words in the task that you don't know, it is a very humiliating thing to not be able to say the requirements of the task in front of so many people.
However, there is something unusual about today's task list, a special task appears on the screen, this task is displayed at the top of the screen, and the task content is shown in red and bold.
Seven or eight hundred people gathered in front of that screen and listened to the mission narrator read out the mission released by the villa today.
These people who come to the auction house to take over the task are basically those who are older, less receptive or have just arrived at the villa, and there is no reason not to want to join when they see the generous treatment of the official members of the villa.
The family is frugal, as long as one person can pass the assessment, then the family's hard life will come to an end.
But those who have a strong ability to accept have already passed the assessment, and the rest are either too old or too young, and the burden in the middle is heavy, often the old and the young, and a person's basic income every day can barely survive, and there is almost no surplus.
According to the rules of the villa, if you want to become an official member of the villa, passing the assessment of the villa is almost the only way, and learning is the premise of the assessment.
But if you want to participate in the study in the villa, you have to pay Huaxia coins, and for these people who are poor and overburdened, the easiest way to get Huaxia coins is to do more tasks.
In the past, the reward for tasks was either Huaxia coins or credit contribution points, which were of little use to people outside, but the official members of the villa were eager to do so, although each task only had a value of a few tenths, but it was often snatched up once it was released.
Because they know how to read, sometimes they take the task through the internal network of the villa before they can finish reading it, and these illiterate people sometimes don't even know what the content of the task is, and the task is gone.
Fortunately, those official members are not interested in competing with everyone for the reward, which is the task of Huaxia coins, otherwise these people who want Huaxia coins can only stare dryly.
He Mao first read out the reward content of this special mission, and when everyone heard that the reward content of that special mission was a peripheral member quota, everyone was boiling.
Although it is only an opportunity to become a peripheral member, the peripheral members of Huaxia Villa are required to receive a fixed salary, and the treatment is similar to that of those who become official members by kinship, the only difference is that they cannot live in the core area of the villa.
After becoming a peripheral member, you have enough time and a stable income to support your studies, so as long as you are not really stupid, it is only a matter of time before you become a full member.
He Mao raised his left hand, stopped the commotion in the crowd, and continued: "Although the reward for this task is a quota for a peripheral member, the content of the task is: to get a rent of five thousand taels of silver from the Shu army in Zigui City.
The condition for completing the quest is to bring back the entire rent.
The possible consequence of an unfulfilled task is: loss of life in the course of performing a mission.
This is the first task issued by Minister Li, who has just established the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and according to the notes of the mission, this task also has a hidden task completion condition and additional rewards, but you must accept the task before you are eligible to know. ”
After He Mao finished reading out this special task, he continued to read out the content of the next task to the crowd.
But after everyone learned that there was this special task, almost half of them lost interest in the general task that followed.
"Five thousand taels of silver? We're afraid we'll never earn that much money in our lifetime. ”
"That is, five thousand taels of silver is enough for the family to live comfortably for a lifetime, and the owner of this village is not afraid that the person who takes over the task will swallow the five thousand taels of silver privately?"
The people around looked at this young man who had obviously just come to work in the villa like idiots, and the ignorant were fearless!
"It's easy to take away this money, I'm afraid I won't spend it! Do you think the owner of this Huaxia Villa is an ordinary person? ”
The young man who had just arrived noticed that the eyes of the people around him were a little strange, and said puzzledly: "When I first came to your place, I couldn't figure out a lot of things, and I ask you to tell me the reason." ”
The middle-aged man who asked the question earlier said: "Based on what you just said about embezzling silver, you know that you have only been here for a short time, have you participated in yesterday's mountain villa conference?" ”
"I've attended the conference before, but I'm too far away, and I haven't understood a lot of things, do those ministers and other things have anything to do with us ordinary people?"
"It's a big deal, you see this special task, isn't it issued by Minister Li of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, who just became the minister and gave us a way to become a member of the outside of the villa. But that's not the point, the point is the white cloth hanging on the valley, I don't know if you see something famous? ”
The young man thought for a moment and said, "As soon as you reminded me, I remembered that the figures on it could speak, as if they were real, much clearer than shadow puppetry, and I don't know how they acted." ”
"Acting?" The eyes of the people around him almost popped out, where have you ever seen such a real play?
The middle-aged man patted his forehead and said, "You still think it's acting?" ”
The young man said, "Isn't it? It's just too far away, and I didn't hear what was being played clearly. ”
The middle-aged man shook his head helplessly, and said: "Let me tell you the truth, the figures on the white cloth are real, not some acting, the owner of the village held a meeting in this auction hall, and then used the great magic power to show us what happened here through the white cloth, do you know what it means?" This is clearly a 'clairvoyance'! You dare to embezzle the owner's silver, as soon as the owner uses this magical power, there is no way to hide within a thousand miles, where can you escape? ”
These people have seen the movie "Hero" played in the villa before, and they still remember the picture in it, and the shooting technique of switching cameras has become "clairvoyance" in their eyes.
You can see the owner of this village, you can see wherever you want, even on the battlefield full of arrows, you can come and go freely, even a falling leaf can be seen clearly, and everything that happened at that time can be reproduced.
If you want to do things like the owner of the village to hide from the world and deceive you, it is really an old birthday star who hanged himself, and he is afraid of a long life.
The young man's mouth opened wide and said in disbelief: "Does this owner really have such magical powers? But even if he can see it, as long as he is ready to go down the river on a fast boat, it is not difficult to travel thousands of miles in a day, and it is difficult for him to reach out and catch people out of thin air. ”
"I don't know what the black box in the hand of the steward Wang is, that thing, they call it 'walkie-talkie', even if it is different people from different places, they can talk at will, I heard the steward Wang and the person in charge of recruiting workers in Zigui City talking very casually, understanding the situation in the city.
This thing is even more powerful than the 'tailwind ear', think about it, with this 'clairvoyance' and 'downwind ear', you can easily lay a net at any time, can you escape?
You see, although there are tens of thousands of Shu soldiers and horses stationed in the city of Zigui, Minister Li and Wang Wushun, who issued the task, used to be able to come and go freely in the Shu camp without a single soldier or gun, and they talked and laughed when they left.
Even if they were told that they would camp in this Zigui City and pay 1,000 taels of silver to the villa every day, the more than 10,000 Shu soldiers would not dare to let go of a fart. ”
"In this way, there is no danger at all in this matter of going to Zigui City to retrieve the rent of five thousand taels of silver, but Minister Li has just taken office and can't spare it, so he issued a special mission?"
"Not necessarily, after all, Minister Li used to be the guard of Ziguicheng, and his courage and bearing are not something that ordinary people can have, and the fact that the generals of Shu State dare not touch him does not mean that they dare not move an unknown person, so it is not impossible that he may lose his life as mentioned in this task.
However, judging from the rewards of this task, I guess there are other meanings, and there are hidden tasks and rewards, which makes it even more confusing, and I don't know what the mystery is. ”
The young man listened to the middle-aged man's words, and several thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, constantly weighing the pros and cons. Or don't pick up?
PS: With such a hot weather, I would like to thank two people for being able to complete this chapter. One called Willis? Carrier was born November 26, 1876, and is an American. He invented the air conditioner; The other is called Hou Yi, who killed 9 suns more than 100,000 years ago......
