Chapter 320 320: People from Tianhai 【Ask for a monthly ticket】
The common people soon discovered that there are other "big people's hobbies" that they don't understand besides makeup aesthetics.
For example-
Competition items.
They have watched wrestling and other things in advance, and many of them are even "die-hard fans" of certain contestants, and they dream of wanting their bodies. Therefore, the wrestling promotion match officially started, and the support of these fanatical fans resounded through the sky.
Trying to overwhelm the opposing player with momentum outside the court.
But they don't understand some of the competitions after that.
They really don't understand, and don't understand.
The competition event is called "riding".
But the "riding" is not a horse but an adult fat pig.
Twenty contestants gathered in one place.
Just wait for an order and start to set off. On the way, you have to go through seven or eight different road obstacles. The competition field is winding, and every obstacle hides a "surprise", such as jumping obstacles, wading, climbing, skating, crossing mud...
The top three contestants who arrive at the destination first can divide up the twenty fat pigs participating in the competition according to the ratio of five, three, and two. It is said that these fat pigs were all pigs raised by Shen Jun himself! The meat is delicious and has no fishy smell.
Curious things are always attractive. The common people who were still immersed in the fierce fighting in the first wrestling promotion match were attracted by this project again, and they ran to the "watching area" pulled out beside the track to see the demeanor of the pig-riding warriors.
Twenty contestants: "..."
They say they were drawn by force to compete, not some weird penchant for riding pigs, does anyone believe it? I wanted to participate in the competition passively, but I could hear the competition rewards clearly, and my eyes shone with the light of victory, like a hungry wolf seeing its prey.
First place, ten pigs!
Another pig that Shen Jun raised with his own hands!
Selling it is also a big income!
Don’t look down on pigs, even those who are a little bit richer don’t bother to eat this kind of smelly meat, but for the poorest people at the bottom, they may not be able to taste meat twice a year. No matter how smelly the pork is, it is still meat! There is also a market.
As for the difference between pigs that have been castrated and pigs that have not been castrated, not many people have noticed this.
With an order, twenty warriors rode pigs out of the slaughterhouse.
During the period, there were many situations.
The common people were overjoyed to see each other.
Some pigs don't obey orders at all, they lie on the spot and refuse to move, non-violent and non-cooperative; The Warriors were bumpy.
Seeing the Warriors was a rush.
I can’t wait to let the pig ride on me to complete the race—anyway, the race requirement is that one person and one pig reach the finish line at the same time, and no one is required to ride on the other. A group of ordinary people watching the game trotted along, eager to cross the line to help drag and drop.
"Run faster, run faster, I'm about to be overtaken!"
"Number One, pay attention to Number Three behind him, Number Three is going to sneak attack!"
Oh, forgot to say.
Each warrior holds a polished and smooth stick wrapped in thick coarse cloth. The stick can be used to stab the body of the enemy player, but it cannot attack the face of the player or the pig under their crotch. For a moment, there was chaos on the field.
The participating warriors were sweating profusely, and the commoners who accompanied them were also shouting hoarsely. The robes of these warriors were also allowed to come out to cheer and cheer—well, maybe there is more to watch.
"For ten pigs!"
"Think of your ten pigs!"
"You must grit your teeth and hold on, dog pillar!"
"There are three more obstacles, roll over in mud!"
"Quick, quick, stab the front one down!"
This game took a total of more than half an hour.
The three fastest players got into a fight before the finish line. Finally, the fourth runner carried the pig half-back and half-drag. He used the cover to climb to the finish line and picked the peaches. None of the onlookers and Paoze who watched the excitement made a sound to remind them.
Three contestants: “…”
Among the serious competition events, there will always be one or two strange events with very unscrupulous painting styles.
For example, a certain ice play event is the victory of two contestants in a group, two people with three legs, and the first to cross the line. It is okay on the flat ground, but the problem is on the ice. Even though everyone had taken solid protection, they were still thrown dizzily.
Everyone: "..."
Seriously doubt Shen Jun's original intention of organizing this event.
Said to let them relax and have fun...
Are you just playing with them? ? ?
At the end of the first day, everyone was tired and didn't want to move.
The entire event will last for five days.
The sixth day is New Year's Eve.
The only thing that makes them feel gratified is that there will be a fireworks show on New Year's Eve that is not inferior to the opening ceremony.
In the past few days, the common people lived contentedly.
Vendors who took the risk to buy goods from other places also made a lot of money-although the purchasing power of the common people is not strong, but the number of people is large and the duration is long. Clearance above the purchase price.
Some traders saw Fugu's potential with sharp eyes.
Signed several deals with the "Fugu Department Store" under the name of Zhisuo, and all of them smiled brighter than flowers.
Thirty years, rule the office.
Except for going out to play for a while on the first game day, Shen Tang spent the rest of the time squatting in the office to work. In the past few days, he never left his abacus, and the beads were crackling. It is also rare for Qishan not to go on a business trip, and even recruited Gu Chi as a coolie to settle accounts.
This also has something to do with their being drunk and shameful a while ago. I hope that time can dilute the memory in everyone's mind.
"Master, the calculation is over."
Shen Tang took the letter form from Gu Chi.
The three of them are counting the general business situation of the small market and various shops in the past few days, as well as the collected city tax. Seeing returns for the first time.
"Hey, it's difficult..."
Shen Tang sighed while feeling relieved.
Now these merchants are all persuaded by Shen Tang's order Zhizhi, and they have used various profit-making methods, but they are all small merchants with a small business scale and few products. The best-selling lanterns were sold out on the second day of the opening ceremony, and it was hard to find a lantern for Fugu, and merchants could only watch the loss of customers.
If I go to buy now, I can only wait for the Lantern Festival before selling.
If you miss the Shangyuan Festival, hoarding lanterns is depressing inventory.
Merchants' business is not good, they can't make money, and Shen Tang can't collect listing tax. In addition, after the beginning of spring, it is necessary to purchase seedlings and related agricultural tools, which requires large-scale merchants with good reputation and a large supply of goods. And this is exactly what Fugu lacks the most.
In poor and remote areas, people are unwilling to take root and invest.
Worrying about things in my heart, I will not have a good New Year.
"Master, why don't you let Chi go to Tianhai."
"Go to Tianhai? Ask Wu Xian for help? Isn't that good? Isn't Zhao Dayi here to remind people that Zhao Dayi hasn't gone back to spend the New Year with his family? Although he wants to help us gain a firm foothold in Heyin before leaving, Wu Xian If we insist on recruiting him back, we have nothing to do." Zhao Feng was so easy to use that she didn't want to return him.
Unexpectedly, before Shen Tang sent people over, Tianhai had already sent people over.
