Chapter 5 Migration of Wood Lixin
The next day, Cheng Xia got up early in the morning, remembering the appearance of being pestered by Long Linger last night, he had a headache, this kid, why is he so like a curious baby?
Rubbing the corners of his eyebrows, Cheng Xia felt a little distressed again, the modified God Arm Crossbow, or the wooden M110 is so cheap that kid, it is really a loss, but it is really a loss to be able to use a semi-automatic sniper rifle to dispel Long Ling'er's endless questioning, Cheng Xia still feels that it is quite cost-effective, besides, he already has the idea of making an updated weapon, after all, the discharging speed of 600 meters per second is obviously not enough in this world where cultivators are rampant, if it wasn't for his own tricks yesterday, he fired the bullet while Jiang Yuan was talking, maybe the wooden bullet could really be caught by him。
Don't think about these complicated issues, after washing up, Cheng Xia went to Jiang Yuan to get a notice, and then woke up the sleeping Long Ling'er, and took the escort team and went straight to the east gate of Dutian City......
"Half the price of the flatbread, his son can get off the merchant to receive an acre of land to cultivate, down to eight floors, and his son can be put in the Heavenly Prison as an official? Reduced to nine floors, his son can be admitted to the army? How can there be such a good thing?"
The east gate of the city of Heaven is extremely boiling today, since Cheng Xia posted the notice, the entire east gate suddenly exploded, you know, the class status of the Jinliang country is too big, the army, officials, agriculture, business, technology, military membership is the dream goal of many people in this life, although the repeated battles, the city needs a large number of recruits, but the ancient city of thousands of years, the population has long been saturated, and the conscription is only about 100,000 per year, for a city with millions of people, and a large number of people pour in every year, to be able to be selected by the army, it is already regarded as the ancestral tomb is smoking, and the ancestors bless......
For everyone's reaction, Cheng Xia is very satisfied, such a big temptation, how many people can resist it? However, the cake was released, but there were few people who dared to open their mouths to bite, after all, the emperor had just been captured a few years ago, and the heirless Emperor Jinliang temporarily handed over the entire Jinliang Empire to Jiang Yuan to deal with.
Time flies, the sun is three, and the number of people reading the notice is twice as many as in the morning, but until noon, no one dares to come forward to unveil the list.
All this depends on the eyes of Cheng Xia and others, Long Ling'er on the side has been waiting impatiently, although he knows that Cheng Xia did this to calm the price of grain in Jinliang City, after last year's war, the price of Jinliang City has skyrocketed, and the price of flatbread has risen more than ten times, although he knows in his heart that Cheng Xia can quickly lower the price of flatbread by doing this, and the poor can afford to eat, but for most of the day, no one has unveiled the list, Long Linger is in a hurry, and keeps pinching Cheng Xia's waist, wanting him to think about it
way, but this annoying guy has been tepid and annoying from morning to now, and he is really angry.
After estimating that the number of people had almost reached its peak, and then thinking about whether the pain had reached its limit, Cheng Xia finally decided to start the next step, only to see him stand in front of the bulletin board, and said loudly: "This notice was drafted by General Jiang Yuan Jiang last night, and he also instructed me that there is a big project today that needs the help of compatriots, come and get the tools!"
With Cheng Xia's order, a member of the escort team hurriedly walked over with a wooden stick half a meter long with the thickness of his arm from the side of the bulletin board.
Taking the wooden stick, Cheng Xia went on to say to everyone: "The old general also instructed that if anyone can move this wood from the east of the city to the west of the city, he will be rewarded with fifty taels of gold." ”
"Wow!" The surprise in the morning has not passed, Cheng Xia said this, the crowd of onlookers exploded again, fifty taels of gold is equivalent to 500,000 gold beam coins, if it was before, this is equivalent to 500,000 flatbreads!
After another half an hour, the discussion gradually subsided, and everyone's reflection was unexpected by Cheng Xia, according to Shang Ying's routine of Mu Lixin, someone should stand up at this time, Cheng Xia was helpless, and was about to adopt the next plan, but he saw that in the crowd, an unkempt girl raised her right hand slightly, slowly walked out, and said: "I don't know, can I give it a try?"
The person who came was named Su Shan, who lived in a slum area, and dared to try it only because he saw an acquaintance among the officers and soldiers-the little brother who often came to the house to feed the bread......
Finally a volunteer mouse came out, Cheng Xia was overjoyed, hurriedly and enthusiastically pulled the little girl to her, explained the rules to her, and then handed the wooden stick to the little girl's hand and signaled her to start.
Taking the wooden stick, Su Shan still couldn't believe it, and asked in a voice, "It's just, it's that simple?"
"Well, hurry up, it's yours after you've finished making 500,000 gold beam coins, and you can buy a lot of flatbread when the time comes!"
It was Long Ling'er who spoke, after receiving Long Ling'er's encouragement, Su Shan no longer hesitated, took the wooden stick, walked slowly at first, walked for a while, and found that there was nothing unusual, and after finding that there was nothing unusual, his courage began to grow, and gradually turned into a trot, and he had already run back and forth in less than an hour.
"Hahahaha! Okay! Little sister, congratulations, come on, come on, these 500,000 gold beam coins are yours!"
Looking at Su Shan, who was panting and jogging back, Cheng Xia was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Holding the gold handed over by the handsome official with both hands, Su Shan still couldn't believe that it was true, until she left a small tooth mark on the gold with her own mouth, and pinched her cheek unconfidently, then she excitedly shouted to the crowd: "Mother, mother, it's true, it's true, we have bread to eat!"
With the shout of this little girl, the crowd of onlookers exploded again, since you can get fifty taels of gold for sending wood, will the things on the notice be fake?
For a while, the surrounding cake merchants squeezed on the notice, afraid that the movement would be slow and the notice would not be revealed, seeing such a scene, Cheng Xia was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted to everyone: "Don't panic, don't panic, don't unveil the list, we will send people to investigate the market regularly, as long as the price is reduced, the promise on the notice will definitely be fulfilled!"
Cheng Xia was overjoyed, but he didn't notice that outside the crowd, there was a group of people staring at him viciously, and it was Cai He, who was actually Cai He, who offered a reward for the pair in the Heavenly City that day.
The enemies were very red when they saw each other, especially when they saw Cheng Xia's salted fish turning over and looking proud, Cai He was even more unhappy, humiliating himself that day, and letting his accomplices steal his money bag, how could Cai He, who was born with a golden key, swallow this breath......
