At Chenshi the next day, that is, at seven o'clock in the morning, the gate of Toad Village slowly opened.
There was a large group of people at the door. These were the people who had been shaken by hunger and injuries and chose to join the Toad Village. They begged and guarded at the gate of the village all night. They were already exhausted. At this time, they saw the door finally opened.
They all looked at me with a mixture of expectation and pleading.
Facing this scene, Cheng Dalei didn't express much. A table was placed in front of the door, with Cheng Dalei, Xu Shenji, and Huang Sanyuan sitting behind the table.
"We want to join Toad Village."
"Please take us in."
"Quiet, quiet." Xu Shenji maintained order: "If you want to join Toad Village, you must go through an interview and meet the conditions."
"I want to join Toad Village." The man with a broken leg came to the table.
"Name?" Huang Sanyuan asked, holding up his pen.
"Sun Jiu."
"What did you do before?"
"I'm cooking for the master."
"Is there an injury on your leg?"
"I was hit by the axle. It's not in the way. I have strong arms and can do any kind of work." Sun Jiu tried his best to stand up straight.
"Your situation is very difficult to handle." Huang Sanyuan sighed and asked Cheng Dalei with his eyes.
Sun Jiu's heart beat nervously, and he begged: "Please, please take me in. I can endure hardship and work. If I have a lame leg, it doesn't matter."
Cheng Dalei checked Sun Jiu's information and was surprised to find that Sun Jiu was an excellent chef. This was beyond Cheng Dalei's expectation.
"Stay here for now, level C."
"Thank you, Mr. Boss, and thank you, Mr. Huang." Sun Jiu was overjoyed. He seemed to have completely forgotten that he left on his own initiative yesterday. At the same time, he was a little strange: "What is Class C?"
"You will know this later. Go in first and have someone look at your injuries. Remember, you are in the internship period now. If you do not perform well, you will be kicked out at any time."
Sun Jiu didn't understand the word internship, but he understood that he was being retained. At the same time, he felt a little uneasy, fearing that he would be kicked out at any time.
"Next." Huang Sanyuan waved his hand.
If someone is the first to eat crabs, things will go much smoother next. Cheng Dalei has decided on grades A, B, C, and D. Those who want to join Toad Village must go through harsh and even difficult interviews before they are hired, and some people are directly eliminated.
.
Faced with such a situation, people are panicked, fearing that they will be eliminated and become homeless. Some people not only think about what they want after insisting on leaving yesterday, but now they are crying and shouting to join. Some people are being
After being eliminated, there were many cries and pleas, but Cheng Dalei showed a heart of stone that he had never seen before.
Cheng Dalei wanted to deprive them of their dignity by making things difficult. Let them understand that Toad Village is not begging them to join, but conversely, joining Toad Village is an honor and a recognition. People never care about things that they can easily get.
Cherish, only things that you have worked hard to obtain can be regarded as treasures, even if the treasure is just a straw.
The people who joined Toad Village also received excellent treatment from them, including treatment for injuries and medical treatment. There is currently no doctor in the village, and only Qin Man, who knows a little bit about herbal medicine, can temporarily fill this position. However, the village has
With the "Healing" skill, the injuries of these people are not a big problem.
At least each of them could have a bowl of hot and filling rice. The aroma of rice wafting from the village made the hungry people down the mountain eager to eat.
While I was busy with these things, another thing happened at the foot of the mountain.
Lu Hen led a small group of people and came from the direction of Luoye City in disgrace. When he saw the lively scene here, he was subconsciously startled. What were these people doing?
"General Lu, General Lu!"
Suddenly someone called him loudly. Lu Heng raised his head and saw Cheng Dalei waving to him excitedly.
Lu Heng didn't really want to see Cheng Dalei. The attack on Toad Ridge failed and he became a laughing stock. People said that Cheng Dalei killed him with just one move.
In fact, he was injured by Qin Man first, otherwise Cheng Dalei would have no right to fight against him.
When I patiently explained to them: Cheng Dalei is actually not good...
Then they will say: Hey, you can let others defeat you with one move. How can it be that if they can’t do it, you can? If you can, you can let them defeat you with one move.
What you say must be accompanied by an exaggerated tone and a winking smile.
From Luoye City to Blackstone City, Toad Ridge is the only way to go. Lu Heng didn't want to meet Cheng Dalei, but he had to meet him.
"General Lu, didn't you go to give birthday gifts to King Youzhou? Why did you come back?" Cheng Dalei trotted over, his tone surprisingly cordial.
"Yeah, I'll be back after finishing my work." Lu Heng responded casually. He didn't want to fight Cheng Dalei, and he couldn't fight him. Qin Man was still on the mountain.
"It depends on the situation, isn't it going well?"
"Why didn't it go well? It went well!" Lu Heng yelled as if his foot was stepped on. But in fact, his trip to Youzhou City was not only not smooth, it was terrible.
Youzhou King Yang Longting was the actual ruler of this land, so Xue Banchuan urgently needed Yang Longting's support after usurping the throne, but there was something Xue Banchuan didn't know.
Thirty years ago, when the Rong tribe invaded, Han Huju defended the isolated city to buy time for reinforcements from the rear, so that he could defeat the Rong tribe. Han Huju became famous through this battle and became the lord of Blackstone City.
Everyone knows these things, but what everyone doesn't know is that the person who led the supporting army was none other than the current King of Youzhou, Yang Longting. Without Han Huju's insistence, Yang Longting would not have been able to preside over the force to repel the Rong clan.
, and he could not become the later King of Youzhou.
The two joined the army at the same time and worked hard in the same team for three years, becoming brothers. Xue Banchuan had been with Han Huju for so many years without knowing anything about it.
Originally, Yang Longting didn't know that Han Huju was dead. Youzhou City was far away from Blackstone City, so it was difficult for the news to spread. That is to say, it was only when Lu Heng sent a birthday gift this time that Yang Longting learned the news.
Faced with Han Huju's death, Yang Longting only said one word: death.
He withheld the birthday gift, killed several of Lu Heng's followers and washed their knives, and let a few of Lu Heng go back. He informed Xue Banchuan that he had lived well these days, and that he would send troops to attack Black Rock City, and personally pour a memorial ceremony in front of his deceased brother's grave.
Xue Banchuan's blood.
Lu Heng didn't tell Cheng Dalei these things, lest he gloat about his misfortune. He tried to change the subject and asked, "What are so many people doing?"
"Oh, our Toad Village is recruiting people, with good salary, five insurances and one housing fund." Cheng Dalei waved his hand excitedly: "Is General Lu interested in joining?"
Lu Heng was agitated and looked at Cheng Dalei with a ghostly look, thinking, have you made a mistake? We are enemies. I don't want to kill you all the time, but you actually want me to become a bandit with you.
Facing Lu Heng's expression, Cheng Dalei sighed helplessly and stretched out his hand to Lu Hen: "Okay, bring it here."
