Chapter 2631 The capital becomes famous(1/3)
After you have your household registration.
The senior man took the remaining three people, Wen Rensheng and another man and woman, and they soon entered the capital again.
Then he found a powerful local gentleman and asked about sumo wrestling.
Not long after, after demonstrating his immense power, the wealthy gentleman was ecstatic.
Under the arrangement and leadership of the wealthy gentleman, they came to a sumo wrestling ring to compete.
In the sumo ring, everyone from high-ranking officials to street vendors were watching enthusiastically.
It's just that everyone's sitting position is different.
One by one, they roared happily and placed their bets, encouraging the sumo wrestlers they were optimistic about.
When Wen Rensheng saw this, he also shook his head.
It’s such a drunken dream.
Who could have known that in just a decade or so, the prosperity here would fall under the iron heel of barbarism.
Prosperity and strength cannot be commensurate with each other until after the industrial revolution.
At this moment.
No matter how good the prosperity is, it cannot be transformed into real battlefield strength.
The mighty Song Dynasty entered the prosperous commodity circulation for the first time, but was brutally interrupted.
When Wen Rensheng sighed, the senior players came off the stage to engage in sumo wrestling.
He just saw the clue after watching one scene.
Sumo wrestling is nothing more than throwing another person to the ground.
Sumo wrestling was very developed during the Song Dynasty.
"Tokyo Menghualu" and "Menglianglu" record that the sumo wrestlers used by the imperial court were sergeants on the left and right sides of the imperial guard, named "Uchidōko".
There are also professional sumo wrestlers in the market, and they all have names.
The winners are rewarded with: flag tents, silver cups, colored satin, brocade jackets, Huizi (banknotes), horses, etc.;
It has become very professional and highly ornamental and practical.
There are also famous female sumo wrestlers. "Menglianglu" records their names: Sai Guansuo, Xiao Sanniang, Black Fourth Sister, etc.
As long as you rely on strength to suppress your opponent, prevent him from getting up, and persist for a period of time, you can win.
It's such a simple process.
Simple, direct, violent, raw strength and wrestling skills confrontation, the outcome is as clear as a child.
Coupled with the background of the times, thieves were everywhere in the wild, and people had a primitive pursuit of force, so it was naturally easy for them to prosper.
The veteran quickly started his first game.
"The sumo wrestlers competing below are masters from the Western Regions invited by Mr. Liu!"
"He is a descendant of the Western Han Dynasty's Western Expedition, and his name is Fang Gaoyi."
"I returned to my hometown today and am about to show off my talents!"
Following the host's words, Fang Gaoyi, a veteran, officially left.
He has gone through three missions, and in each mission, he killed and injured countless indigenous people.
It can be said that a murderous aura naturally condensed in him.
But he had been restrained before.
After all, many newcomers to reincarnation have not yet adapted to their psychological qualities.
It scares people to the point of collapse when they come up, which does him no good at all.
But now, at the end of the competition, he no longer restrained himself.
Opposite him was a muscular man.
He is physically strong and possesses very flexible skills.
As soon as I got up, I started to learn the movements of tigers and monkeys and jump around.
Shouting from the mouth.
Fang Gaoyi's eyes turned cold, murderous intent burst out, he took a step forward, grabbed the opponent's body directly, and blocked it with his left leg.
Simply and directly throw it to the ground!
When his murderous aura burst out, his opponent was restrained.
One moment, he was in a trance, and the next moment, he was dizzy and fell to the ground, being pinned down by someone!
"one two three……"
As the host called out the number, the opponent was unable to stand up.
“Very good!”
"Well done, one more!"
"What a pity, I pressed the wrong one!"
"This new sumo wrestler is still awesome!"
The citizens shouted.
And at this moment, another round begins.
"In the next game, Fang Gaoyi will play against Fei Yanzi continuously. The ante will be increased! At least 20 copper coins!"
Because the dealer only draws water, in order to ensure the enthusiasm of punters, it is necessary to arrange similar opponents.
If the disparity in strength is too great, it would be meaningless if everyone tried to suppress one side to win.
In the end, there will be a consistent bet, and you will only win one penny, which is not enough for the banker to draw money.
After going back and forth a few times, no one placed a bet.
"The betting methods are: Fei Yanzi can stick to five numbers, stick to ten numbers... Fang Gao loses one hand, loses two hands..."
These are all different ways to place bets.
Soon, senior player Fang Gaoyi won easily again.
Among the people, there are many knowledgeable people.
"This guy is very powerful!"
"I'm afraid only the best sumo wrestlers can compete with him!"
"Press him!"
As Fang Gaoyi won many battles, everyone soon chose to bet on Fang Gaoyi.
The result is that the winner makes little money.
Soon no one was placing bets anymore.
The dealer is not afraid of someone winning money, but is afraid of being deserted and no one is playing.
So someone found Fang Gaoyi.
"You must lose the next game."
"Black, so damn dark!" Fang Gaoyi said, "Okay, I agree."
"Very good, these are ten taels of silver. You should keep them first, and I will give you another 20 taels later." The man was very happy.
That's right, when it comes to betting, it's absolutely impossible to be clean.
Snow-white silver was won by others, which is a sin.
So Fang Gaoyi used a flaw and was knocked down once by the opponent, and then he quickly got up again.
"Hahaha, I made the right move, I can earn 10 coins!"
"Damn it, why didn't you have the energy at the beginning?"
"Nonsense, he has won 10 games in a row. No matter how strong he is, his physical strength will be insufficient."
Seeing this, everyone began to place bets on his opponent.
When Wen Rensheng saw this, he couldn't help but feel funny.
Sure enough, the ancients had already mastered the tricks played by later generations, as long as they were not based on science and technology, but on these crooked ways.
Many scams of later generations took shape long ago in ancient times.
Because people's hearts have never changed.
Compared to changes in technology, human nature has been fixed almost since 2000 years ago.
In Wen Rensheng's opinion, this senior man's physique was at least 40 or above.
To be continued...
