The common people soon discovered that besides cosmetics and aesthetics, there were other "hobbies of big shots" that they didn't understand.
For example--
Competition items...
They had already watched wrestling and other things in advance, and many of them were even "die-hard fans" of certain contestants, coveting their bodies in their dreams. Therefore, when the wrestling promotion competition officially started, the cheers of these fanatical fans could be heard throughout the sky.
.
Trying to overwhelm the opponent's players with momentum off the court.
But they didn't understand some of the later competition events.
They really don't understand and don't understand.
The competition event is called "riding".
But the "rider" is not a horse but an adult fat pig.
Twenty players gathered in one place.
Just wait for the order to start, and you have to pass through seven or eight different obstacles on the way. The competition venue is winding, and every obstacle hides a "surprise", such as jumping obstacles, wading, climbing, skating, and crossing.
Muddy road……
The top three contestants who arrive at the destination first can share 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 raised by Shen Jun himself! The meat is delicious.
No fishy odor.
Exotic things are always particularly attractive. The common people who were still immersed in the fierce fighting in the first wrestling promotion match were attracted by this project, and they all ran to the "viewing area" pulled out next to the track to catch a glimpse of the pig-riding warriors.
style.
Twenty contestants: "..."
They said that they were forcibly selected to participate in the competition, rather than having some weird hobby of riding pigs. Does anyone believe it? I wanted to participate passively, but when I heard the rewards of the competition clearly, my eyes were shining with a sure-win light, as if I was seeing prey.
The hungry wolf.
First place, ten pigs!
It’s another pig that Shen Jun raised with his own hands!
It’s also a huge income from selling it!
Even though the nobles look down on pigs, even the slightly richer people disdain to eat such smelly meat, but for the poor people at the bottom, they may not be able to taste the smell of meat twice a year. No matter how smelly the pork is, it is still meat!
Marketing.
As for what is the difference between slaughtered pigs and pigs that have not been slaughtered, not many people have noticed this.
At the command, twenty warriors rode out of the pigs.
There were many situations during this period.
The common people were overjoyed to see it.
Some pigs do not obey orders at all, lying on the ground and refusing to move, non-violent and non-cooperative; some pigs have a bad temper and want to lift the people off their backs; some pigs attack each other and remove the people on their backs.
The warrior was shaken hard.
The warrior looked anxious.
I wish I could let the pig ride on me to finish the race - anyway, the competition requirement is that one person and one pig reach the finish line at the same time, and there is no requirement for anyone to ride who. A group of common people watching the race followed along and trotted along, wanting to cross the line to help drag.
"Run faster, run faster, or you will be caught up!"
"No. 1 pays attention to No. 3 behind you, No. 3 is going to make a sneak attack!"
Oh, I forgot to say that.
Each warrior held a stick in his hand that was polished and rounded and wrapped in thick coarse cloth. The stick could be used to stab the opponent's body, but it could not attack the player's face or the pig under their crotch. For a moment, there was chaos on the field.
group.
The participating warriors were sweating profusely, and the common people who were accompanying them were shouting hoarsely. The robes of these warriors were also allowed to come out to cheer for them - well, maybe it was more of a spectacle.
"For ten pigs!"
"Think of your ten pigs!"
"You must grit your teeth and hold on, Gouzhu!"
"There are still three obstacles, roll over the mud!"
"Quick, quick, push the front one down!"
"Boss, there's a foul!"
This game took more than half an hour in total.
The three fastest runners got into a fight before the finish line. In the end, the fourth player was half-backed and half-draged, carrying the pig. They used the bunker to successfully climb to the finish line and picked the peach. The onlookers and the spectators, Pao Ze, were all excited.
No warning was given.
Three contestants: "..."
Among all the competitions with serious painting style, there will always be one or two weird projects with very informal painting style.
For example, in a certain ice-playing event, the winner is the one who is the first to cross the line with two players in a team, two people with three feet. This is fine on flat ground, but the problem is on the ice. Even if everyone has taken thick protection,
Still dizzy from being thrown.
Everyone: "..."
I seriously doubt Shen Jun’s original intention of organizing this event.
Said to let them relax and have fun...
In fact, you are just playing with them, right???
At the end of the first day, everyone was exhausted and didn't want to move.
The entire event lasts 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 as good as the opening ceremony. People can choose to have the reunion dinner at home and then go out to watch the performance, bringing a successful end to the year.
These days, the common people live contentedly.
Vendors who took risks to purchase goods from other places also made a lot of money - although the purchasing power of the common people was not strong, the number of people was large and the duration was long. The few batches of goods that came in were all eaten, and the ones that were not eaten were also punished.
Come forward to clear positions higher than the purchase price.
Some traders are keenly aware of Fu Gu's potential.
I also signed several business deals with the "Fu Gu Department Store" under the name of the government office, and everyone's smiles were brighter than flowers.
At the age of 30, he governs the office.
Except for going out to play for a while on the first competition day, Shen Tang spent the rest of the time squatting in the office and working. In the past few days, Shen Tang had never left his abacus, and the beads were being set.
Chi works as a coolie to settle accounts.
This is also related to the fact that they were drunk and embarrassed a while ago. I hope time will fade the memory in everyone's mind.
"Lord, it's over."
Shen Tang took the letter form handed over by Gu Chi.
The three of them were counting the general business conditions of the small market and various shops in the past few days, as well as the city tax collected. Although it was only a small amount of money, but - this was the first time after Shen Tang invested a lot of money in Fu Gu. Seeing the rewards for once.
"Hey, it's difficult..."
Shen Tang was relieved and started to sigh again.
Now these merchants were all persuaded by Shen Tang's command office and used various profit concession methods, but they are all small merchants with small business scale and few goods. Once the goods are out of stock, they cannot quickly replace them - such as these few The best-selling lanterns sold out on the second day after the opening ceremony. It was hard to find a single lantern for Fu Gu, and merchants could only watch helplessly as customers were lost.
If we go to purchase goods now, we can only wait until the Lantern Festival to sell them.
If you miss the Lantern Festival, hoarding lanterns is just a waste of inventory.
The business of the merchants is not good and they cannot make money. Shen Tang cannot collect the listing tax. In addition, after the spring, he has to purchase seedlings and related agricultural tools, which requires large merchants with large scale, good reputation and abundant supply of goods. And this , it happens to be what Fu Gu lacks the most.
In remote areas, people are unwilling to put down roots and invest.
I am worried about things and cannot have a good time during the New Year.
"My lord, why don't you let Chi go to Tianhai?"
"Go to Tianhai? Ask Wu Xian for help? Isn't this bad? Isn't it right to come here to remind people that Zhao Dayi hasn't gone back to celebrate the New Year with his family? Although he wants to help us establish a foothold in Heyin before leaving, Wu Xian We have no choice if we insist on recruiting him back." Zhao Feng was so useful that she didn't even want to return him.
Unexpectedly, before Shen Tang sent someone over, Tianhai had already sent someone over.
