Chapter 643 A Thousand Dollars Buy Bones?

While the manager was still pondering Lorraine's sentence "I haven't had anything to do with it yet", Lorraine took Vera and Leo to get rid of the manager and walked straight into the theater.

Lorraine stood there and looked at it, and saw that the interior of this grand theater was extremely wide, slightly round and egg-shaped, magnificent and vast, and could accommodate 5,000 people.

The interior is stepped in shape. Step by step, all the way down to the stage in the middle.

The design of the Grand Theatre is so exquisite, you can clearly see the performances on the stage from any position. The interior of the theater is also very rough, the stage is made of logs, and the seats are all stone slabs.

At this time, the atmosphere in the scene was in full swing, the sound of "buzzing" vibrated Lorraine's eardrums, and the temperature inside was much higher than outside.

The venue was full of people in the dark, with at least 90% attendance, and it was full of people from front to back, who were eagerly watching the performances on stage.

The only good seats in the front rows near the stage are specially prepared VIP seats, with seats and chairs, and they are also full of richly dressed spectators, clearly separated from the people in the back.

Dozens of judges sat in the first row like dogs, all with fat heads and big ears, and their faces were full of red light.

Looking at that dress, it is probably a character with some status in this city.

And on the stage, someone is performing a talent show. There are more than 300 contestants who have signed up for the competition, and it will take a long time for them to pass all of them, so everyone will not have a long time to perform.

The people who came up first reported their homes, and then either sang, or danced, or came to a performance by a traditional artist who sells strong pills.

It's like a talent show that Lorraine was used to seeing in her previous life, and it can't get along with the selection of a lone thief.

The judges also commented on this one by one, scored and discussed, and selected the contestants to enter the next round of the competition.

Even in the corner of the stage, there is a seller of rat poison. The man was naked, revealing his skinny flesh like a washboard, holding a packet of medicine in his hand, and chanting loudly: "...... The rat took my medicine and it couldn't run away if it kicked its legs......"

And there are still a lot of people who really pay for it. Then the spectators in the venue swarmed up, and the rat poison seller was carried out after he fell down.

The audience in the VIP seats in the front row laughed at this episode, and the ordinary audience in the back row was unwilling, and those who paid for it and didn't get rat poison pestered the brothers to ask for things.

Leo saw that this place was completely different from what he imagined, like a lively vegetable market, and he couldn't help frowning, and said, "What's going on? Why don't I see any of them?"

Bai also screamed in disappointment, although it didn't expect a beautiful woman with a high slit, but it also hoped that there would be more rich people, and it would be convenient for Uncle Bai to touch their wallets when the time came. But when I came in, I saw that most of them were poor ghosts.

Even some of them had clothes like those begging for food, and they were extremely ragged.

Not to mention touching their wallets, even your own wallets have to be carefully watched so as not to be touched.

Lorraine couldn't help but sigh when he saw it: this is really 'no oil and salt shop that won't open'. At this level, it is obviously the registration fee in the pit, but these guys can actually recruit so many people, and so many people actually make a serious selection. The program is quite complicated, and it looks like it's going to be a matter of fact.

I don't know how these heartless guys were deceived?

Could it be that the fools in this world really can't be fooled?"

But Lorraine was even more happy, because those who came to run for the election had different colors of clothing, and at a glance they knew that they were all over the world and everywhere, so it was convenient for them to collect intelligence.

And since they can participate in this competition for a high prize money, it is easier to believe that it is easier to get information from their mouths, that is, to spend some money, anyway, it is public funds, Lorraine is not distressed, he will not save money for the Vatino.

I can't say it, it's best to make a false count, and go back to let my cheap old man report it.

At this moment, someone appeared in Lorraine, accompanied by the chief steward, and immediately whispered.

Then it was like a pebble thrown into the lake, causing ripples. The whispering voice gradually spread.

Almost everyone turned their eyes to this side, whispering and guessing the identities of the people in Lorraine.

Lorraine didn't care, but asked the manager, "Where is the best box here?"

The manager couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and then replied respectfully, "The third box on the left is the best." It is right in front of the stage, and you can see it clearly. ”

After he finished speaking, he saw Lorraine looking at him with a strange look, and he couldn't help but feel weak for a while, and said in his heart: "My lord, I don't know what you command?"

Lorraine sighed and said, "Since you know which box is good, you still don't lead the way, are you people so uneducated?"

I have to teach everything personally, really, it's good to be at home for a thousand days, but it's hard to go out for a while. There's nothing wrong with that. I just went out, but I couldn't find even a better subordinate. I have to say everything myself, so I can't be a little bit of a look?"

After saying that, Lorraine shook his head, with a helpless expression on his face.

The manager immediately blushed with shame, and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, my lord, please come here." Please ...... here."

Although there are many people in this theater, like all entertainment institutions of this kind, they deliberately reserve one or two VIP seats just in case of a big person's attendance, and this kind of box hangs high above the heads of the ordinary seats, not to mention the sight, and the independent space is still very quiet.

The general customer immediately turned around and led Lorraine to a private room, and then had people bring tea and drinks, and snacks such as fruit and pastries.

Leo and White, both of whom are long-grown, have always been hungry when they see something to eat, and thirsty when they see something to drink. And although Vera is a little better than them, she can't leave her mouth.

When the three of them saw something being delivered, they immediately cheered and rushed over together, this kind of strange 6 things were different from what they had ever seen.

Lorraine ignored them, but turned to look at the manager, frowned, and said, "By the way, I haven't asked yet, how did you think of holding such a competition?"

The steward laughed and said, "Don't you know, sir? It is held in almost every city. ”

He looked around, then lowered his voice and said, putting on a look of saying the news, and said: "It is said that this is the prime minister's idea, first of all, our clan attaches great importance to the predecessors of the heroic thief, and wants to use this method to recruit that hero." And thunderbolt...... Thunderbolt got the news and started doing the same. However, I heard that their bonuses are not as high as ours. ”

According to the living habits of the Lingshan clan, every time the Thunder Flash clan who is against them is mentioned, a lot of adjectives must be added.

He had a habit of wanting to be vile, shameless, cowardly, and disregarding the overall situation for his own selfish sake in language...... The Lei Shan clan had a strong contempt, but for a while it was not clear which faction this uncle was, after all, in the upper echelons, the two clans were still related to some in-laws, so for the sake of safety, he just flashed the specific terms for the Lei Shan clan under the official propaganda.

And at the same time, because of his cautious heart, he was slightly proud, in his opinion, this uncle is full of style, and he shouted at the door to kill people, but he was afraid that he would not come

Lorraine was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this was just a copy of the 'golden city bones'.

Lei Daxia ransacked the big museum of the Holy City, famous all over the world, although in the original big 6 because of the Holy See blockade news, Lei Daxia is not so famous, but here, the deeds of the grand thief Lei Guanguang and Bai Guangguang are passed down vividly, and everyone even has a detailed list of what he stole from the Vatino Museum.

And he had already released the wind at the beginning, and after Lei Daxia succeeded, he immediately fled away and returned to Amelia 6.

A thousand years ago, he was driven out of another big 6, and hundreds of years ago he was tossed by the Holy Cross Expeditionary Force, Amelia has been educated since then, the Vatino Holy See is their enemy of the sky, Lei Daxia This is a great breath of evil for the old and young masters of the Semitic race, and his identity is extremely mysterious.

Lei Shen and Lingshan, these demons, have been angry all these years, and suddenly such a hero was born, of course, they have to be recruited. In order to raise the image, as long as you can recruit, you can claim that your own people have won the greatest victory over the Vatino in hundreds of years, which is more face-saving.

It's just that they don't know the origin of this hero, and they don't know the home address or anything. It's impossible to learn from Brother Dabei to play a fake of 'three visits to the thatched house, corporal Lixian' or something...... Uh, good story.

If everyone wants to win over this mysterious hero, of course, they can only desperately strengthen the propaganda offensive.

"Big brother, we have good treatment and high benefits here, long holidays, and a young and beautiful female secretary with a hot body to accompany us at 24 o'clock.

Come to us and get to work."

Lorraine couldn't help but smile when she thought of this. It seems that this is indeed preparing for war, otherwise, these ruffians would not be so hard to recruit talent. Those who have meat and oil are deficient, and they can't even arrange for their own brothers-in-law. And how can it be recruited. History has proved countless times that these hired high-tech talents were finally squeezed away by them.

There are only those who charge into battle as cannon fodder, or who endure hardships and are not good...... And so on these jobs with the "temporary worker" brand, everyone will find someone else to be the black pot for the dead ghost, and the fine is put in their own pockets, and as soon as it is exposed, the temporary workers will be fired, and then recruit a batch to continue playing.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, just by knowing this one thing, he could see the subtleties and get so much information.

Although in the past, you could get a lot of information by reading books, but you often only knew about the event, but did not know, or in other words, did not understand why the event happened.

After being a governor himself, after dealing with all kinds of things, he experienced a lot of things.

And Tong Guò's own experience has really understood what is behind the matter, so his eyes have been opened. There are many things that can be mentioned a little to understand the mystery behind it.

This is also known as the problem of different heights of the station. If you don't climb to such a high step, you won't get the corresponding information, and your horizons will naturally be limited, such as the interests involved behind the things in the bureaucracy, Lorraine does not sit in the seat of the governor, it is difficult to see through the cats inside, and it is impossible to make corresponding accurate judgments.

This is also the reason why in ancient times, information was not available, people were ignorant, and therefore, there were many religious believers. And now, people know more, and naturally, if they believe that a great god can cure a disease, there will be less.

Lorraine happily sat down in his place, then threw a gold coin over and said, "Well, it looks good, and then I'll reward you." ”

The manager was stunned, and reflexively reached out to take it. He thought it was just a silver coin, but then he was pleasantly surprised to see that it was a double-sided gold coin of pure gold.

He was overjoyed, bowed deeply at the moment, and said, "Master Xie." ”

At this time, he finally determined that this uncle was indeed the loser of a certain noble family. Otherwise, they will definitely not take this kind of gold coin as a reward casually, and if they dare to take money like this, they will not be able to afford it.

You must know that although this gold coin is only one, it is enough for an ordinary family of six to eat and drink for a month's living expenses, which is a small amount for ordinary people like him.

Lorraine glanced at the stage a few times, and said very boringly: "It's boring." ”

He pretended to think about it for a moment, and then turned to the main pipe: "Can you call some of the contestants and tell me a few jokes or chat with me?" ”

The manager looked at Lorraine, gave a deep salute at the moment, and said, "Your Excellency, don't worry. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and walked out quickly.

Leo was eating a bunch of unknown fruits, and when he looked up at the manager's hurried appearance, he couldn't help but be a little strange, and said, "You called someone in, why is he in such a hurry?"

Lorraine sighed lightly and said, "It's not simple, this guy must want to talk to those who are going to come in first, how to get the kickback." ”

Leo sighed, nodded and said, "It's a talent." ”

After a while, I saw the chief manager walking in with a few contestants.

Lorraine looked at their dress, indeed those who often wandered around, and nodded in satisfaction at the moment.

These people are often on the move, have keen eyesight, and have a lot of knowledge, and if something unusual happens, they will always notice it as soon as possible.

The chief had explained Lorraine's identity to them, and as soon as they entered, they first saluted respectfully, and then stood aside with their hands down, without making a sound.

Lorraine took a stack of gold coins from his purse, slowly placed them on the table, then playfully picked them up, then released his hand and let them land on the table with a series of crisp sounds.

Seeing his action, everyone present widened their eyes and held their breath. After going south and north, I have experienced more, and naturally I know more about the value of money than those who just stay in the ivory tower and don't touch the spring water with their fingers.

And you can still earn such expensive gold coins, which is not an opportunity that comes every day. Even many people have never touched a gold coin in their lives and seen what gold really looks like.

The atmosphere in the room was a little solemn for a while.

After a while, Lorraine suddenly smiled and said, "You don't have to be so restrained, I just called you here to relax and play a game." ”

He paused for a moment, and then said: "You think you are also going to the old rivers and lakes from the south to the north, you can tell me if you have any new sights and stories on the way." If it's funny, I wouldn't treat him badly. ”

As he spoke, he held the coins in his hand again, then let them go again, letting them make a series of crisp and pleasant sounds.

The crowd immediately looked at each other.

One of the young men volunteered to take a step forward and said, "My lord, I don't know what you want to hear. ”

Lorraine shrugged his shoulders, then changed to a comfortable position, put his legs on the table, and then said, "Whatever, as long as it's not boring." Just beat the time. But it's necessary, and it's fun, it's not the kind of hillbillies who come up with it to scare themselves, and of course if it's money-making, so much the better. ”

Everyone couldn't help but glance at each other. These conditions are not easy to meet.

At this time, they were also sure that this young ruffian was definitely the second ancestor of those big aristocratic families, because he was an adult, so he was released to do business or something, and to accumulate social experience, which was the travel of the nobles.

The young man hesitated for a moment and said, "My lord, do you know that housing prices have risen to the end now, and they are about to collapse......

Lorraine was furious at the moment, pointed out the door, and said, "Do you want to talk about this kind of thing?"

The young man smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, why don't I change another one?" ”

Lorraine said coldly: "What is this?" This year, I have made money in the building materials business, and I am talking about interesting. For example, what you know, or what you have heard, which person does what business, how much money is made, etc. ”

As soon as his words fell, someone next to him had already said, "My lord, I know one thing, I don't know if it counts." I don't know why the price of iron ore in the Lusen mining area has risen all of a sudden this year, I heard that many people have gone over to open mines, if you can get some iron ore, it will definitely make money. ”

Before Lorraine could speak, someone else next to him had already answered: "This is already old news, those iron mines that were opened are now under the control of the military, and the compensation given is very small, and those who opened the mines have lost a lot." Not to mention the iron mines, even the blacksmiths in the Rusen area have all been recruited.

I have a relative who got the news early and sold his blacksmith shop to his enemy at a low price early in the morning, and then the whole family ran away.

The ruffian who took over thought he had taken advantage. As a result, the next day he was taken out of the bed by the army and then arrested. Hahaha......"

When everyone heard this, they immediately burst into a burst of gloating laughter.

Lorraine also threw a gold coin with a smile and said, "That's a good point, it's a little interesting." ”

But he already knew in his heart that iron ore and blacksmiths, all of which had been conscripted by the army, meant that they had begun to manufacture weapons on a large scale.

Listening to this meaning, the bureaucrats and the army who handle it are not less profitable.

However, this kind of forced labor will inevitably lead to a low motivation of the workers, and the output and quality will definitely not increase.

Moreover, they have only just begun to prepare, and the supplies are not in order, so it is absolutely impossible to invade in a short period of time, and if you find out the date and scale, you can roughly calculate how long they need to prepare.

The person who got the gold coin was very surprised, pinching the gold coin and wiping it vigorously on his clothes.

At this time, with the encouragement of that gold coin, the enthusiasm of all the people was mobilized.

They are also thinking about the recent interesting things, and the gossip that they obviously know is false cannot be said.

Lorraine then learned that there was an organization of large-scale deforestation in the forests of Galle. It was then discharged to the seashore to prepare for the manufacture of large ships. One of the factories caught fire due to improper cooking, and as a result, it was burned to the ground.

Lorraine knew that freshly chopped wood could not be used to build ships, so it seemed that the other party was planning for the long term.

Another story about the southwestern governor of the Thunder Semine tribe because he accepted bribes in the process of collecting grain, replaced the grain with bags of sand, and the replacement was just enough, but the bag of sand was not enough, and after the matter was revealed, the whole family was beheaded and the storyteller won a gold coin.

At this time, everyone was also alive, telling the latest stories one after another.

And one of the stories also caught Lorraine's attention recently, there were necromancers and death riders roaming the south, saying that they were going to hunt down a woman. After making a fuss for a while, it is estimated that he was not caught in the end.

Because according to the official's temperament of great joy, if they are caught, they will definitely report it in a big newspaper.

Lorraine was silent on the surface, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Actually escaped the necromancer's search, and it seems that Deibol still has two brushes. I just don't know where she is now. And how do I get in touch with her?

At this moment, someone whispered: "My lord, this matter I am talking about is extremely important, the first beauty of our Semitic race seems to already have a sweetheart." In order to resist marriage, she has secretly run away three times. I don't know if the golden crown on the head of His Royal Highness Philip of Thunder has grown moss and turned green. ”

For His Royal Highness the prince who was about to marry the first beauty recognized by the Semitic race, everyone immediately scolded happily: "Ya deserves to let Ya wear a green hat and be a green hat king for a lifetime."
