Chapter 17: Distributing Weapons! Walking Hormone!
Merchant Tim left contentedly with his goods.
As a merchant with 100 gold coins, he was already considered a relatively large merchant in Westgar City.
The distance from Westgar City to here wasn't close, and there were many bandits in this area. Smaller merchants wouldn't come to such remote places at all.
Just like those slave traders, after coming from the Beast Kingdom, they were worried that the cat girl would be targeted by bandits on the way, so they preferred to sell her at a lower price in Richard's territory.
This time, Tim also saw an opportunity and brought all his inventory to try his luck.
Sure enough, he hit the jackpot.
"My lord, it was a pleasure doing business with you. If everything goes smoothly this time, I might come back in half a month."
When leaving, Merchant Tim said.
He was very smart.
He didn't ask where the mysterious merchant from the East who bought these things from Richard was.
Because he knew that even if he asked, Richard wouldn't tell.
Who would reveal their exclusive channels to others?
After Merchant Tim left, the broadcast room started to get lively.
Some people stopped chatting and were waiting for rockets.
Sure enough, the rockets came quickly.
[Auntie Wang] rewarded with 100 rockets. Comment: Young man, keep it up!
[666, Auntie Wang is indeed a hero among women, swift and decisive!]
[Auntie Wang is invincible!]
[Auntie Wang, my WeChat is #￥%!@, I am the Duck King of Xicheng Empire, brand number 18...]
[D*mn, there's a duck sneaking in, ban this person!]
[Disgusting!]
[...]
[Richard's Little Fangirl] rewarded with 100 rockets. Comment: Haha!
[Cute Big-Eyed Bunny ] rewarded with 100 rockets. Comment: Darling, stop streaming, I'll take care of you!
[I Love a Stick] rewarded with 10 rockets. Comment: Too many big shots, I'm out!
[Unstained By Green Tea] rewarded...
In the broadcast room, the queue mode for rewarding was activated.
Rockets flew across the sky, of course, except for three real bigshots, most people only occasionally rewarded with a rocket or an airplane.
In comparison, there were many more airplanes.
After this wave of transactions, the number of online viewers in the broadcast room also surpassed the two-hundred thousand mark, setting a new record!
Meanwhile, in the small town, Richard collected all the gold coins. With this money, he had his startup capital.
Next, he had another thing to do.
"Stand up straight!"
On the square of the small town, more than fifty people stood neatly.
This was the foundation of the territory's army.
These people were all from generations of residents of the territory, so they were quite reliable.
Naturally, the territory's army needed to expand. How could this number of people be enough?
In Richard's current territory, besides the people in the small town, there were also more than two thousand scattered people.
With over two thousand people, Richard estimated that he could still put together a military force of over a hundred.
With the current wage of 300 copper coins per person, Richard could afford it.
[Do these brothers run a marathon every day? Is it okay?]
[Come on, they're probably not actually running.]
[I feel like they are, haven't you noticed how quickly they're getting darker?]
[After a few more days, we won't need to hire those coffin dancers specially.]
[...]
In the broadcast room, watching these guys who had been sunburnt from running for the past few days, everyone was a bit amused.
Richard came to them and gestured to a few men.
"Go, bring out the things."
He had already placed all the knives and shields in the rented house. That was also the benefit of Richard renting it.
Although there was storage space, he couldn't just take them out in front of so many people, right?
The few men quickly brought out the knives and shields from inside.
This time, Richard wasn't planning to distribute bows and arrows, but knives and shields first.
Training with bows and arrows took time, and using them also required arm strength and some talent for accuracy.
Crossbows, although relatively simple, also required a certain talent.
Richard still needed to observe these guys for a while.
[Wow, so many knives.]
[The anchor is playing big this time.]
[Police: Open the door, checking the water meter.]
Ignoring the excitement in the broadcast room, Richard distributed all the knives and shields.
More than fifty people excitedly held the knives. These knives felt extremely sharp to them, and they were also quite heavy.
Moreover, there were also shields.
The shields were made of stainless steel and looked quite beautiful. These people had never seen stainless steel before, and their eyes lit up at the sight of it!
"Since you are all my warriors, I will equip you with the best weapons." Richard spoke up.
"Starting today, run in the morning, practice combat skills in the afternoon. You don't need to practice anything too complicated, just repeatedly hack and slash. After practicing with the knives, you can then practice using the shields."
Richard finished speaking, took out a knife, and his gaze suddenly became sharp.
Then, they saw Richard swinging the knife in the air!
A simple swing, but with the force behind it, it looked powerful!
Moreover, due to Richard's high attractiveness and rugged facial features, this swing fully displayed his masculine aura!
Many women in the broadcast room instantly felt exhilarated!
[That swing was so cool, anchor, please do another one!]
[Anchor, do you wake up handsome like this every day?]
[Walkin' hormone!]
[In my next life, I definitely want to reincarnate as a man like this anchor!]
