Chapter 338 Busy recruiting guards outside the city
The imperial court's official porridge factory is located in the east of the city, so it is also the place where disaster victims gather the most.
In a tent near the Xincao Gate, the fat man stood in front of a large public notice board with the words:
"Jingshitang recruits people, asks..."
Of course, don’t expect that there will be a few of the victims at this time who are literate, so the thin man is holding a steel gong and beating "Dangdang" and slowly, he starts to surround a large group of victims.
Such a scene happens several times a day. When the gong sounds, the victims will know that another big city owner is coming to "buy people".
However, this time it is quite special. The Jingshitang Medical Center in the city recruits people, saying that only a young man aged 15 to 18 is required to be strong, but he has to sign a dead contract. If he signs, it means he will be a "slave" in the future.
Of course, the conditions are also very generous. As long as you are admitted, you will give your family two stones of rice, which is equivalent to 240 kilograms.
Maybe someone would call Chen Buer a profiteer, buy someone and sign a dead contract, but it would be too dark to give only such a little food.
But don’t forget that in this chaotic and chaotic year, other families buy a maid and servant, but only a bag of coarse grains, but the amount of 50 kilograms of dried rice that has been seeped into small stones is not more than 50 kilograms.
In comparison, Jingshitang is simply Guanyin who saves the suffering.
Besides, giving too much food is definitely not a good thing. There has been a "civilian change" among the victims outside the city. Now it is just the victims who rob each other, and it is possible to siege the city later.
Whoever has more food in his hands and who is outside the city is the target of public criticism, will definitely become the target of other victims robbery or even killing people. In order to eat in one bite, they can only turn into beasts.
So Chen Buer was not short of money or food, but the situation forced him to not give him more food.
Of course, it was said that he had signed a death contract. After that, Chen Buer paid the young men and they could still send the money to their families if they had it.
The prerequisite is that their family members are still alive.
The victims gathered more and more. Looking at the mountains of food piled up in the awning, everyone drooled, and many people were even ready to move.
But the Chen family guards' bright sword was there, and no one dared to act rashly.
What they didn't know was that behind these guards were all automatic rifles. If anyone was seeking death, Chen Buer would never be polite. Anyway, the government has no longer cared about the murder, and the outside of the city has entered a state of disarray.
There is always the first person to eat crabs.
At this time, I saw a middle-aged man stepping forward, followed by a boy.
The middle-aged man stepped forward and nodded and bowed:
"Young Master, this is my third son. You see, he is strong and strong enough. He is definitely a good job in work. He also practiced some fists and feet when he was in his hometown. He can tell a little word. Master, look..."
Chen Buer glanced at him: "Oh, all-round civil and military talents, young man, I ask you, your father is going to sell you, are you willing?"
As long as he said he was unwilling, Chen Buer would never accept it. No matter how good the conditions were, he wanted was willing loyalty, not a person with resentment.
The young man gritted his teeth, stepped forward and clasped his fists and said:
"It's so good for the young master to know that I was willing to sell my body, and I took the initiative to propose that my family has too many people, with grandfather and nephew. I'm so hungry that I'm so hungry that I'm afraid I can't hold on if I don't have food anymore.
Although the boy is a foreigner, he has always heard of the name of Jingshitang Medical Center and has never heard of Jingshitang criticizing his subordinates. Therefore, the boy is willing to sell himself as a slave and ask the young master to fulfill his wishes."
As soon as these words were said, people around were talking a lot, and even Chen Buer was a little surprised:
"Your words are not like ordinary farmers, and you are really willing to be a slave? I have to practice martial arts, not medical treatment."
"Young master, I live a wealthy life in my hometown. My family has been to school for me and I have also studied martial arts. However, the drought has been stolen, and all the food in my family has been banned from burning. In desperation, our family has to escape to Bianliang."
Chen Buer understood that this young man was probably a small landlord in his hometown.
"May I have your name?"
"The boy's name is Zhang Xinran, he is 16 years old this year."
Chen Buer was still very satisfied: "Good boy, then you can stand aside first. You will need to have a physical fitness assessment in a while and you can only be admitted if you pass. But don't worry, you will not be able to treat you badly after the admission."
The young man and his father nodded and stood aside.
If there is the first one, there will be the second one. Two stones of grain is really tempting. There are dozens of disaster victims outside the city, and the young man said at least tens of thousands, while Chen Buer only has 200 people. Of course, he can choose the best among the best.
So many people came forward one after another, some led by parents and some were obviously orphans.
Chen Buer gave a few instructions in the thin man's ear. His request was first to recruit orphans, not to save food, but to the orphans have no choice but to rely on them. If you treat him well, you will be more loyal.
Zhang Xinran has good conditions in all aspects, but he already has self-thinking and will think about himself when encountering problems. Are such people talented?
He is definitely a talent, and he may also be a talented person or a handsome person.
But Chen Buer was not trying to rebel. People with too many ideas were not very suitable. What he wanted was a brave person. When he heard the order, no matter whether it was a deep abyss or a mine formation ahead, he would move forward and never retreat.
It exceeded Chen Buer's expectations, more than 2,000 young men signed up in less than half a day, which was just a preliminary pass.
As for those who are skinny and bone-skinned, those with disastrous heights, those with yellow and hungry faces, and those with sick faces can only be eliminated.
What Chen Buer wants is a "crash class". There is no way, he can only choose the right person.
The assessment is different from others, first of all, the vision is the focus.
You are going to fight and get a shot. If myopia is myopia, astigmatism will definitely not be qualified. So Chen Buer learned from later generations to create a vision chart for on-site test.
The second is the physical strength test. This test is very simple, that is running.
Let's run for one kilometer first.
Originally, Chen Buer wanted to come for five kilometers, but was stopped by the thin man. These young men couldn't even eat enough, so they didn't have the energy to run a long distance.
So in the end, it was changed to a two-kilometer run. This distance was also a huge test for those teenagers who were starving with stars.
But that's exactly what happened. Those who could persevere in the end were either first-class physical fitness or first-class perseverance. This was the person Chen Buer wanted.
As for the popular archery, horse rifle, weight carrying, wrestling and other events in ancient military camps, there was no excessive assessment.
Chen Buer prepared thermal weapons to attack from a long distance, but because there were few people, he had a disadvantage in the surging large army, that is, he could not be close to him.
