Everyone had angry faces and had to ask the store owner for an explanation.
The store owner was so frightened that his face changed, and he hurriedly slapped himself in the face, "The villain is talking nonsense, the villain is talking nonsense, please don't be angry!"
The Royal Forest Army and others looked at Zhao Xiaole, who motioned for them to retreat.
Then everyone viciously put away their weapons and retreated.
Although what the store said was harsh.
He pointed out Zhao Xiaole's current embarrassment.
He is currently in a situation where no one is available.
With just these people, if they followed him to Yun Mansion, it would only be a matter of time before they were all killed or injured.
If they were left to rest at Tianmen Pass, people in the world would not let them go. Chang Kun, who was already injured, would not be able to stop tonight's sneak attack.
Zhao Xiaole was used to being surrounded by people in front of him and leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade when he went out. Unfortunately, when he arrived at Prince Pingxi's Mansion, everything was different.
If you don’t want to be low-key, you have to show off.
How can there be so many good things?
After some thought, Zhao Xiaole made a decision. He looked at the store owner who was still acting,
"Don't cry yet. I would like to ask you, can you recruit some idle people in Tianmenguan?"
The store owner was stunned after hearing this and stopped crying. "If the guests are willing to spend money, many people are willing to sacrifice their lives."
The store owner understood what Zhao Xiaole meant and it was indeed a good idea.
Zhao Xiaole nodded, "Money is not an issue. Since you know there are people willing to sacrifice their lives, help me recruit a large number of people. I will form another escort team."
"This is a good thing, and it is indispensable for your benefit."
The storekeeper nodded, his voice no longer choked, "I wonder what kind of people you want to recruit? Third-rate masters and second-rate masters have clearly marked prices. It is difficult to recruit first-rate masters with money. Although there are exceptions, most people rely on
It was solicited by favor.”
The shopkeeper stopped here.
He was afraid that Zhao Xiaole thought too much and would blame him again.
Zhao Xiaole also understood what the other party meant. The seven top masters of the Seven Star Gang gathered together because of their familiarity.
Once they reach their level, they all have their own reputations, and just relying on money to recruit people will make them feel very faceless.
Therefore, he refused to be hired.
Among the second-rate masters, there are also some who are arrogant and unwilling to bow down for money, but they also want to make a living, and this has gradually formed the custom of being hired. Therefore, many people do not object to this matter.
Then, a problem naturally arises.
Second-rate masters make money through employment, but how do first-rate masters make money? How do they support themselves? Money is not like food, which can grow from the ground.
It's also very simple. Top-notch players have cards. Once they show off their skills in a strange place, they will immediately be friends with the local gentry.
Warm hospitality and complimentary expenses are not a problem.
This is to prevent them from killing rich people or stealing and robbing when they are short of money. After all, it is difficult for first-class masters to be restricted.
Although the money given by others cannot be used as a cart, it is enough for their expenses when they go out.
In the place of household registration, some gentry's donations and the property they purchased were enough to support themselves.
Similarly, when a first-rate master accepts these benefits, he is also obliged to protect the safety of a party, and the name Xia comes from this.
Second-rate and third-rate masters will also receive some hospitality, but the weight is far lower than that of first-rate masters.
What should I do when the money is not enough? In view of the reputation of the knight and the supervision of the local top masters, most people with low martial arts skills do not dare to openly attack.
Even if the patrons don't give away money because they have someone behind them, there is nothing they can do.
In this way, it is natural to accept employment and make money.
In fact, many people in the world are still rushing to do these things. After all, there are not so many ways for them to make money.
First-rate experts are equivalent to the level of big bosses. Compared with those who can't let go and set up street stalls, second- and third-rate experts, who are like white-collar workers and workers, carry this banner.
Seeing that Zhao Xiaole was not impromptu, the store owner took everyone to a small, clean courtyard. After the arrangements were made, he discussed the details with Zhao Xiaole in the living room.
Chang Kun and others all looked ugly.
After all, Zhao Xiaole had to hire guards because they were too incompetent.
But if Zhao Xiaole doesn’t hire anyone, they can’t even protect their own safety.
Everyone was caught in a tangle.
Because of this, they looked at the store owner with more resentment, which frightened the store owner.
Zhao Xiaole had to drive out the others, leaving only Chang Kun and the guard with the banknotes.
The storekeeper secretly told himself that he must not show off his talents later and offend these injured guards again.
"Sir, the current market price for second-rate masters is 800 taels of silver per month, and for third-rate masters is 200 taels of silver per month."
"As for first-class masters, some of them will often come to small shops. However, these are drinkers who come to drink. More people gather in Fengchen Forest. If you really want to recruit people, you may want to go there to see them.
look."
Chang Kun's eyes flashed with anger again, "Damn it, how come these people's asking price is so high? Did you get a benefit in the middle?"
The shopkeeper was half-sat on the chair. He was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground. He quickly looked at Zhao Xiaole and said:
"Sir, I didn't get any kickbacks. Those Seven Star Gang members have very good reputations. If they find out that they were hired by the master, they will definitely not be able to hire them if the price is too low!"
Zhao Xiaole snorted, "It doesn't matter if you have more or less money, but the person you hire must be reliable."
"For third-rate masters, I allow you to offer up to five hundred taels, and for second-rate masters, I allow you to offer up to two thousand taels."
"If there is a first-rate master who is willing to join us, I can give him ten thousand taels of silver per month."
After saying that, at Zhao Xiaole's signal, the guard behind him coldly took out the banknote, counted ten thousand taels and threw it to the store.
Zhao Xiaole said: "This is the reward for you. Go and do your business. I don't want to buy a second yard."
"Yes, yes, I understand."
After the shopkeeper got the money, he looked ecstatic and secretly happy to be able to serve Zhao Xiaole. He almost kowtowed and left the hall.
A little worry appeared on Chang Kun's face, "Sir, I'm afraid these outsiders are not of the same mind as you."
Zhao Xiaole sneered, "It doesn't matter whether they have the same intentions or not. They mainly use it to put up a facade to prevent the prying eyes of some young people."
Compared with so much trouble, a little money is nothing.
You know, Zhao Xiaole spent one hundred thousand taels of silver on a visit to a brothel, and the money was more than enough to hire a guard.
After the news was released, it turned out just as the store owner said, when others learned that Zhao Xiaole was recruiting people, not many people were willing to accept the employment.
