"Mingda, follow this format and post it in the nine counties under your command. Remember to post more of it, and don't leave it behind in remote places. There are many heroes in the wilderness. There were still more than ten days before the recruitment date, so it was likely that there would be enough people with intentions to come.”Liu Chong made up his mind and said firmly.
Liu Chong knew that his recruitment order, which did not ask for background and moral character, but only for talent, would definitely attract a group of people who were depressed and frustrated under the current system. He did not know if there were any more famous people from the Three Kingdoms who came to seek refuge. He could only blame himself for not being particularly familiar with historical knowledge. The few that he had were mostly impressions from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Otherwise, he could invite them one by one according to historical records. Although they might not care about him, he could invite as many as he could.
"Yes, sir! Your Highness!" Zhang Ping was only responsible for putting forward his own suggestions. If Liu Chong had his own considerations, he would firmly implement them.
The recruitment order quickly stirred up a whirlwind in the Chen Kingdom. Especially after seeing the recruitment conditions, many people were tempted.
Groups of commoners could often be seen gathered in various places in the Chen Country. Those literate scholars finally found a place to use their skills: " Recruiting order: His Highness the King of Chen has informed us that the world is currently in chaos and our military equipment is weak. In order to protect the Prince's mansion, we are specially recruiting brave warriors to serve as guards. Anyone between the ages of 18 to 30 who is brave or has special talents can come forward to be recruited. There is no age limit for those who have special talents. Regardless of their background, those who are recruited will be given a one-time settlement allowance of five gold coins and a monthly salary of ten stones. The assessment will be held on the first day of September. There will be no waiting after the deadline.”
A thin figure was trying his best to squeeze through the crowd, as if he wanted to hear what was going on.
"Little monkey, why are you f * cking squeezing? You want to be a guard with that small body of yours?”Someone in the crowd recognized him and called his nickname as he joked.
"Old Wang, don't look down on others like a dog. This daddy has a unique skill. Originally, I didn't want to present this treasure in front of wangye, but since you've said so, this daddy really wants to give it a try. When we reach wangfu, this daddy will teach you a lesson!”The skinny young man threatened.
"You? If wangye wants to find you, you might as well use those five gold coins to raise a dog!”As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd burst into laughter.
"You! Damn it, let's ride a donkey and read a song! Five gold? I'll let you go home and drink the northwest wind.”With that, the thin man passed through the crowd and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
"Aiyo! Why is my purse gone?" The guy called Old Wang searched his body and realized that there was no money bag. He shouted anxiously. It was his wife who asked him to come out to buy food. Now, it was all gone. It seemed that he could only wait to kneel on the washing board when he returned home.
"Haha!" Seeing that the guy who mocked him just now was so anxious that he was stomping his feet, the thin man laughed happily in the corner. He was holding a purse in his hand.
Suddenly, his laughter came to an abrupt stop. His eyes revealed a look of horror, and the hand holding the purse began to tremble. His entire body felt as if it had pierced through a shadow, and he felt a chill.
A tall tower-like man stood in front of him. The man was more than eight feet tall while the skinny man was only six feet tall. The huge difference created a huge pressure. His muscles bulged tightly. His coarse clothes could no longer cover his entire body, exposing his strong muscles. The man had two halberds on his back and was carrying a strong wild boar in his left hand. The wild boar seemed to weigh more than 100 pounds. The man carried it like carrying a chick. His right hand reached out to the skinny man. When he opened his palm, it was covered with thick calluses.
"Hand it over!" His voice wasn't loud, but it had an irresistible power.
"Take... Take what?" Before he could finish his words, the burly man suddenly widened his eyes and glared at him.
The skinny man suddenly shivered and loosened his grip on the pouch. The pouch fell onto the huge palm. His legs could no longer hold on and he fell to his knees.
"Thief, if I see you again, I'll tear you apart!”After the burly man finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards Old Wang, who was crying.
Under everyone's surprised gazes, she threw the purse in front of him.""Watch your mouth in the future! Don't spew shit all day long!"
Old Wang was suddenly overjoyed as he recovered the money bag. He was stunned for a moment."Thank you, strong man. Thank you, strong man. I won't dare to speak nonsense again in the future.”After saying that, he quickly put the money bag away and left the crowd.
Only when the burly man's figure left his sight did the thin man's cold feeling disappear. It was as if he had walked through the gates of hell.
"Who is that guy? Just how much strength did it take to lift such a fat wild boar with one hand like a pagoda? Why was he so scared by his glare that he almost peed his pants! Ah! Pants!" The skinny man stood there in a daze and quickly reached down.
His pants were still dry. The skinny man heaved a sigh of relief and felt relieved. Fortunately, he did not pee. At least he still had some face.
"I'm doomed today!" Sighing to himself, the skinny man suddenly remembered a sentence on the recruitment order: "Those with special talents can come forward to be recruited.”
Special talent? Is this unique skill of mine considered a talent? The skinny man muttered to himself, and his eyes gradually turned from empty to more determined.
"If you're not recruited, then just take it as going there to broaden your horizons. I heard that those refugees from Runan are working there for His Highness and are even given food and wages. Hehe, it's not bad to do a few jobs at the same time.”The thin man finally convinced himself and headed towards the recruitment point stipulated in the recruitment order-Xiang County. Anyway, he was a guy who ate his fill alone, and his family was not hungry. He also did not have any property, so he was happy to be free.
Little did he know that just as he decided to go to Xiang City, the burly man who had scared him half to death had already sold the wild boar he had hunted and was heading to the same destination as him.
A few days after the recruitment order was issued, all kinds of people with different purposes began to move toward the recruitment point. As a result, the closer they were to Xiang City, the denser the flow of people on the official road. People from all directions rushed to the same destination-Xiang City.
