The ensuing transaction went smoothly.

The foolish sheep made a move, and twenty gold coins arrived, and the money was handed over with one hand and delivered with the other. There was no agreement, no communication, not even bargaining, but the two sides understood very well.

In fact, this is a kind of "conventional" ecological chain in the local area.

Then the party who received the goods was happy, and the party who got the gold coins was even more happy, and both parties were happy.

When the honest boy opened his eyes again, he was not locked in a room, let alone locked in a dungeon or something, but in a large square. Oh, and it's too formal to say that the square is actually a relatively flat tidal flat, and then a lot of people are gathered outside.

"Here, bet our new good lad will make it through!" said a thick voice, more akin to a roar.

Then the surrounding clamor rose a few steps at once.

"I'm next, bet he'll make it through three!" a voice said.

"Five, four!"

"Three, three!"

......

In a matter of moments, dozens of people placed bets.

An ancient game that is incredibly simple but fascinating is playing out here.

After a while, the situation became clear.

It's not a ring game, and it's not an arena.

A big man who looked quite a bit of pie patted the honest young man who was still sitting on the ground in a confused state and didn't know where he was, and then explained it to him in a few words, which was nothing more than telling him how he came here.

Then he was given three paths:

One

"We won't hide it from you, we bought you for two hundred gold coins. All you need to do is get two hundred gold coins, and you're gone. Friend. We will not embarrass you!"

Two

"You don't have two hundred gold coins on you right now, do you? Join us for the time being. Work with us, and when you earn enough three hundred gold. You can leave. ...... Why three hundred? Because you have to eat and drink and live with us, and you have to count the money. Right?"

Three

"Friend, you must think this is a. Yes, we agree. So, get up, fight! Among our brothers, you can pick it, the second level, as long as you can pick ten in a row. Then we will not say a word, let you go, and never stop you!"

Then a lot of the guys around shouted, "Come, pick me, pick me! Boy, I'll let you go!"

The words of the big man before are actually not finished:

"Actually, there's another way. Little brother, when you are promoted to the third level, you can also leave. Not only will we not stop you. Then there will be gold coins to offer, one hundred or two hundred, you can choose!"

After saying this, Dahan stopped, waiting for the honest young man's choice.

It's reasonable, well-founded, and modest. The honest boy almost high-fived when he heard it. What a clever set of programming!

The first way, to redeem oneself with gold coins, is justified. -- You can't let us lose, can we? And we didn't get you. You have to settle accounts and go to someone else. We're innocent, right?

This is a path that seems to make sense, but it doesn't work. Because no one still has gold coins on them in this situation.

So the design of this road. Just to make an impression in the hearts of the people who come here. -- We are reasonable! Brother, don't resist too much.

Then it is logical to move on to the next link.

Join, work, earn.

You owe us, and then we will pay it back by doing the work with us, and we will not embarrass you in the slightest. This is called evidence-based.

As for when you'll be able to earn enough, that's another story.

This is the main procedure. If it only goes here, it can only be said to be ordinary, decent, and definitely not clever or anything. And what's really clever about this is that there's one, no, two roads, but they're still the same road.

First, you are strong now, as long as you can do ten in a row, you can leave.

Warriors are always like this, force is reason, convince people with reason, this set is common in the entire continent, and everyone recognizes this set. If you can't do it, don't complain, that's not the work of a manly man. It's okay, if it's not good, it's not okay, everyone's happy word!

Second, it doesn't matter if you're not strong now, you'll always be strong in the future. Just move up one more level and you're good to go!

Well, we're actually good people, not only aren't we bad, we're also very reasonable, aren't we?

This set of procedures can be summed up in three sentences, "put the facts, be reasonable, and give hope." To put it mildly, this is not even just about giving hope, but simply about arousing people's motivation to forge ahead.

After listening to Dahan's words, the honest young man was silent for a long time.

If he had changed places, he couldn't have devised a better program!

It's not the best, it's far from it! But it's the simplest, the most direct, the easiest to execute, and the most psychological.

The vulgar people fell here, so they had to bury their heads in work, and you couldn't afford to make any waves. If you really have the ability, people will not do harm, let you develop, and then generously send the plate entanglement, and send it out of the country as a VIP. How about it, even if you have the ability and great ability in the future, you are embarrassed to come back to "settle accounts", right?

According to the theory in the "Theory of Elemental Cycles", this is also a seed that has taken root and grown.

There are channels for the accumulation of basic strength. (Ask: Where can the canal be as clear as it is?, for there is a source of living water.) There are so many small shops here, or some other aspect, that act as a fertile "dirt". ）

There is capital for development. (The collection of so many warriors is a force in itself, and in the lower chain, it is still very competitive.) ）

There is little or no aftermath. (The grievances of those who are forced to join are controlled by reasonable programming to a very small extent, and if they live here for a period of time, the original "forced" feelings are likely to quickly dissolve and become actively joined, and then the team continues to grow and develop, forming a virtuous circle.) After all, no matter what, for second- and third-level martial artists, it is better to develop in a group than to fight alone. If it is really promoted to the third level, it is estimated that many people will not want to leave if they can go. ）

After listening to Dahan's words, the honest young man pondered. In fact, of course, it is impossible to spend any time on these thoughts. (We all know that.) ：Ｐ）

But the people around him were urging.

After the bet is placed, it is obviously impossible for the gamblers to be too patient, and they are eager to see the results quickly.

"it! it!"

"Boy, hurry up and pick people, don't let Lao Tzu look down on you!"

It's hard to disobey the will of the people, and if you don't do it and choose to work directly, it is estimated that you will be regarded as a bad seed.

So next, the honest boy got up and picked ten people who looked the weakest from the outside. Then those who were picked out, some shrugged, some grinned, some grinned, and some vicious. -- It's not always too pleasant to be singled out as a weakling.

And then it was dry.

The honest young man's appearance really surprised the onlookers next.

Because this honest-looking boy was very fierce in the fight, and although he was out of breath and fought extremely hard, he was overturned eight times in a row! Fortunately, when he reached the ninth, he was overturned. Then a group of people sighed, because no one bet on this glorious and abnormal record, and the dealer took all.

"Brother, it's good! Welcome to join us! We will drink wine together in a big bowl and eat meat in a big bowl in the future!" said the leading man with a big voice while holding the shoulders of the honest young man. (To be continued......)
