Chapter 192: The Power of Money and Power
For people with a bold temperament, Luo Wei's behavior is very unfriendly, although there is nothing to blame in this kind of doomsday, but it is really a bit insulting, it is good to invite you to drink, you pour half of it to feed the dog to test the poison, and you don't drink it after trying, which is really a bit shameless.
"Tie Niu, do the old lady a favor, beat him, and then tie me up and throw him on the bed, I have to train him well today." Qiqi had a bad feeling because of Luo Wei's sentence about how much money a night was, and when she saw this kind of behavior again, she was naturally extremely unhappy.
"He can't beat me." Luo Wei felt that these two people were still a little interesting, and took over the conversation for the first time.
As soon as these words came out, not only Tie Niu and Kiki, but most of the people in the tavern began to laugh, many strong men who were usually familiar with Tie Niu laughed so much that their eyes were red, and a bearded strong man pointed at Tie Niu and laughed: "Tie Niu, look at your ball, you are usually embarrassed to brag to us, you see, a little kid looks down on you." ”
Tie Niu didn't have that kind of temper, and he didn't get angry at this time, he just looked at Luo Yu and sneered, clenched his fists and said, "Why don't we try?" ”
The people in the tavern have already started to make a fuss, this is a place where it is not a big deal to watch the excitement, no one fights for a day and panics, of course, this is a bitter boss.
Luo Wei didn't have much interest in fighting, he just calmly pointed to the red umbrella lying at his feet, and said, "You pick it up, I'll pay for the whole drink tonight." ”
Not only Tie Niu laughed, but all the drinkers in the audience laughed, this shouldn't be a fool, Tie Niu is one meter nine five tall and weighs two hundred and fifty-three pounds, and it is all muscles trained by wind and rain, not soft and cowardly fat, the whole person is a humanoid King Kong, usually eats two catties of rice, and his huge body can even break through an elastic vest, now you let him raise an umbrella?
As if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, Iron Bull pointed to the red umbrella on the ground and said, "This is your thing?" ”
"Yes."
"Don't you feel sorry if it's broken?"
"I don't feel distressed."
"That'll do." Tie Niu squatted down, put one hand on the tip of the umbrella, and put the other hand on the handle of the umbrella, and smiled angrily, "Don't talk about lifting it, I'll break it for you today!" ”
With a loud cry from the Iron Bull, the muscles on his body swelled around because of the congestion, the green tendons jumped violently, and the huge power was transmitted through his arms, and even the floor under his feet made a creaking sound.
But... The red umbrella does not move at all.
"Huh?" Tie Niu didn't believe in evil, and let out another heavy shout, his strength was three points heavier than just now, and his eyes were bloodshot, but... Still not moving.
"Tie Niu, what are you doing? Hurry up, I'm waiting for the imp to invite me to drink. A drinker shouted.
"I'll do it!!" Iron Bull burst into foul language, and tried his best, but he couldn't lift the red umbrella alive or dead, and finally his hand slipped and sat on the ground, cracking the floor.
Luo Wei slowly left his seat, held the handle of the red umbrella very casually, lifted it easily, and carried it on his shoulder.
"This..."The tavern was silent, Tie Niu stared at Luo Wei with wide eyes and stupidity, he jumped up unconvinced, and said scoldingly, "There must be something done on this!" Do you dare to hand it to me now. ”
Luo Wei casually threw the red umbrella to Tie Niu, Tie Niu reached out to take it, the terrifying pressure came from his arms, the red umbrella fell down his arms with an unstoppable momentum, Tie Niu's face turned white, he could feel his bones moaning, his muscles were tearing, and his arms were already unconscious.
Just when Tie Niu's arms were about to dislocate, Luo Wei grabbed the falling red umbrella in time to help Tie Niu get out of danger, otherwise he would have to go to the hospital to pick up his bones.
Tie Niu sat on the ground and was silent for a long time, and finally touched his head and said to Luo Wei: "Convinced." ”
Luo Wei motioned for Tie Niu to sit down, and then glanced at the sluggish crowd, under the effect of the strong, these people who had been coaxing before did not dare to look at Luo Wei, they all turned their heads and did their own things, and the tavern returned to its previous noise.
"Brother, Evolver?" Tie Niu sat down and tilted his head and asked mysteriously.
Luo Wei didn't answer directly, but glanced at him and said, "You are a soldier of the Radiance of the Republic?" ”
"It used to be, but it's already out of the army." As soon as he mentioned his identity, Tie Niu smiled, but the smile was more complicated, there was pride and bitterness, he lifted the corner of his pants, knocked on the steel prosthetic leg, and said, "I broke a leg by the cannon of the Federation pig 4 years ago, and I am too old to have no fighting spirit, so I simply retreated." ”
"Where is the military headquarters in Lin'an City? What are the requirements for enlistment? Luo Wei asked.
"What? Brother, interested in being a soldier? Hey! This is really unusual, I have only heard of soldiers running into the wilderness to be wolf cubs, and for the first time I have heard that wolf cubs in the wilderness are coming to be soldiers. Tie Niu was stunned for a moment, "The military department is very easy to go, and a local knows where it is." The conditions are just like that, the mind is not crooked, the body is not disabled, and most of them can enter after the assessment. ”
"How long will it take to get to colonel?"
Luo Wei's question made Tie Niu laugh so much that tears flowed out: "Brother, you asked this a few years ago, I guess I can seriously analyze it for you, but now that we have made peace with the Federation, it is already a time of peace, most of the soldiers are hiding in the city to assist in defense, how can there be any chance of meritorious promotion, the officers above do not die, the positions are not vacant, where is the position for the people below?" ”
"If you don't have any background, the average soldier will die to be a non-commissioned officer, and the more powerful ones who can be promoted to captain are already in the blue smoke of their ancestors, and the officers above the school level can only enter with a background."
"Doesn't it mean that personal strength has now been put into the consideration of military rank? Why do you still have to look at the background? ”
Tie Niu waved his hand and said, "Hey, that's what I said, the problem is that if you don't have a background, no channels and resources, you can't become much stronger!" Now those powerful families have special teams to earn reward points, and the financial resources are abundant, and the talent training is called a fast, and a small soldier is working hard for two years, which is not as fast as people taking a pill in two seconds, how can you compare? ”
Luo Wei pondered for a while, according to Tie Niu's statement, the so-called consideration of personal strength actually returns to a large extent to the background issue, which is really true, ordinary people will improve a little after a few years of practice, and the young master soldiers from the big family can kill you in seconds if they swallow any bloodline mixture.
Money and power, both in the old and in the new, this seems to be an eternal theme...
