Blessed by abundance, be a Terran curse

As we all know, in a three-way balance of power, one side will definitely be weak.

Among Wei, Shu and Wu, Shu was the weakest and was the first to perish.

So who is the weakest side of Casimir?

If you count the newly arrived Utopia, Casimir's weakest party is actually Mr. Huang himself.

Because he has not built any industrial chain yet, what Casimir fears most is the recognition of the Utopian superpower.

So even if he is the weakest, Mr. Huang can still act like:

Open the door to free trade!

This is what the great powers are like. They don’t need any reasons to do anything.

To be fair, Casimir didn't want Utopia to interfere in his affairs at all.

After all, if he fails to seize the opportunity, Casimir will fall into foreign hands.

No matter how hard the Knights and the Chamber of Commerce fight, it is only a fight at home. No matter which side wins, it will still be their own family who will ultimately control Casimir.

For the next few days, the front page headlines of Mobile City were all filled with advertisements for the Knights' Games.

In this fast-paced and roaring era, such explosive news and novel entertainment projects have undoubtedly attracted the attention of almost everyone.

Especially the working class in mobile cities, who have a little money and like to try new things of this era.

Combined with the low but not completely cheap ticket price, all the tickets for Huangcao were sold out on the first day the advertisement was released.

In order to continue to expand its influence, Huangcao united with the Knight Lord and the Chamber of Commerce to place advertisements on several other mobile cities.

As for how they saw it, it naturally depended on the videotape...

While the picture quality isn't great, the filming techniques and editing style make up for it.

Huangcao continued to open several audition venues and issued a recruitment letter for players, hoping that all the strong people in Casimir would participate in this competition.

The speed of information transmission between mobile cities has been pushed to the extreme.

But once you leave the city, the speed will instantly drop back to ancient times, and the transmission of information depends entirely on transportation.

Fortunately, all countries now have the prototype of cars, and the transmission of ordinary information no longer relies on manpower.

Why mention "normal"? Because expedited information still has to be transported by humans.

In this world, there really is a race of people who can run faster than cars.

……

One month later.

With the investment in advertising, the Changsimir Knight Competition became an instant hit, and almost the entire country's attention was focused on these forty girls.

In order not to put pressure on these girls, Huang Cao did not release any information except for the photos of them wearing armor.

Even they don’t know what’s happening in the outside world. They only know that they have become the focus of the whole country.

This is an experience I have never had before.

The petty bourgeoisie in the mobile city have long wanted to see the noble ladies fighting and have a fantasy about the so-called aristocratic life.

This competition undoubtedly broke the boundaries between nobles and commoners.

As long as you sign up, no matter how bad you are, you can compete with the noble gentlemen.

Therefore, many self-proclaimed folk masters also signed up to participate in the competition, but this led to a shortage of audition venues.

So Huang Cao contacted the Chamber of Commerce again.

"Let them continue to sign up, and let as many people as they want come, without having to worry about funding."

Huang Cao said.

"But Mr. Huang, we don't have enough space. There are already 20,000 contestants registered."

The spokesperson looked embarrassed when he heard this, but he immediately saw the financial resources of Mr. Huang.

Huang Cao took out a water-blue diamond that was bigger than a human head from somewhere.

"I think this is precious enough."

The spokesperson was speechless. Although diamonds are precious, they do not have much practical value as jewelry.

But what if it’s a diamond bigger than a human head?

And it also has the color of the ocean.

The spokesperson swallowed his saliva and made a direct call to the board of directors behind him.

As expected, his supporters couldn't resist the temptation.

Such a large diamond is a rare item and can definitely become a family heirloom.

Chapter 220: Ranger, and Ranger’s Father.

"Of course, don't expect me to give this thing to you. This diamond can only be used for auction. All the proceeds from the auction will be used to purchase a new audition venue. Of course, if you are willing to provide the land..."

It's impossible for me to give it to you for free, even though the cost of this thing is less than ten gold coins.

Because these gold coins are used to buy very pure carbon.

Spokesperson: "Of course, but we are willing to provide a portion of the funds to advance the auction costs. Please select the audition venue first, and we will reimburse you after the auction."

I watched the man in front of me happily carry away a diamond that was bigger than my head.

Huangcao did not stay here for long, but instead continued to invest more resources in the corresponding industries.

The market is wonderful. Where there is demand, there will be production.

He has to prepare everything before the game, otherwise he will ignite the audience's enthusiasm but end up pooping a lot when the game starts.

Although this is also a good show effect, it is estimated that there may be no chance of creating a good show effect in the future.

Even though more audition venues have been added, Huang Cao still feels that this is not enough.

Because the atmosphere is not strong enough to attract everyone's attention to the game.

Most people just want to watch the fun instead of really participating in it. At most, they just buy a newspaper.

In the future, the Casimir Knight Competition will be a national entertainment method suitable for all ages, and it can even be held by several cities together.

In a sense, this sport also promoted class differentiation, resulting in the release of many conflicts that could be resolved through knightly competitions.

As for the real nobles and the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce, they have no intention of sending their real fighting forces to participate in the competition.

Because this undoubtedly exposes his own cards.

And if all these forty girls were defeated, wouldn’t it be a disgrace to Utopia?

Does Casimir not want to live anymore? !

This is not cowardice, but following the heart.

……

Some time passed.

One month before the competition officially started.

Three months is at most enough for these girls to learn certain fighting skills and stimulate the Originium skills that are already in their bodies.

The girls' strength is still far behind that of real combat knights, but they still inherited the family's characteristics in their blood.

With intentional guidance, the girls can all use Originium techniques normally.

Although most of the time it just adds a layer of special effects to the body, the effect is almost non-existent... at least the fight won't be too stiff.

This is why the kings, princes, generals and ministers on the land of Terra are truly powerful.

Therefore, in order to ensure the implementation of the plan, Huang Cao also signed up for the competition.

He was mainly worried that there were still rangers like his uncle in this era.

It would be a bit funny if the girl he trained was directly defeated in one wave.

In order to avoid being discovered, Huang Cao changed his body shape and put on a heavy armor that was more than two meters high, making it impossible to see his face.

A medieval iron warrior from the ancient times!

At the same time, there were only forty-one contestants on his side.

In order to maintain the popularity of the one-month Knights League, Huang Cao decided to make a videotape of the entire audition process and include it in the video.

In addition, all kinds of endorsement activities are fully utilized, and generous product endorsement fees are given according to the response of the competition.

There is no doubt that participating in the competition is an opportunity for ordinary people to make a fortune.

Since there is no trend of the times, I will just create one manually.

In order to add fuel to the fire, Huang Cao decided to contribute some of his own technology, that is, movies, and movies that everyone can afford to watch.

Video recordings had already existed in this era, but they were all in black and white.

Nowadays, almost all mobile cities are constructed of pure mechanical structures.

I have to admire the materials science in this world.

What's more important is that the stadium can't accommodate many people, and what he wants is for the whole of Casimir to know about knight athletics.

Movies, let everyone buy tickets to watch the knight competition.

Even if you are not in the city hosting the knight competition, you can still be the first to know the schedule.

After each match, we would quickly process the videotapes and send them to other cities, where we would do the editing and noise reduction in the car, maximizing our working time and efficiency.

Meanwhile, Casimir's business and political circles reacted.

Huang Cao made no secret of the fact that he had an affair with the Chamber of Commerce, but the knights could not condemn him.

Because capital is profit-seeking.

Both parties extended olive branches to Mr. Huang, allowing him to quickly take over Casimir.

So in countries other than Utopia, there are dozens more cinemas in the world.

The equipment for playing movies was naturally shipped from Utopia, and was sponsored by Mr. Huang for free.

……

At the same time, in an ancient knight's manor.

A tall man was stroking his sword in the darkness.

"Come back? I thought you didn't want this family anymore."

A blond Kuranta old man said with a slight complaint.

"Father, I'm sure you know the reason why I came back. The Linguang family has been silent for too long. Glory and power should have come with us."

"But you're a ranger too, aren't you? You even want your children to be rangers too."

"Isn't freedom good? I don't want to live my life aimlessly adhering to this ancient tradition, but I am willing to uphold the honor of my family."

"There's no good ending for those who are too competitive, but if this is your decision..."

"Old man, just wait and see. I will make the Linguang family's reputation resound throughout Casimir!"

Looking at the confident young man, the usually serious old man couldn't help but smile.

But he knew that this was also the beginning of the Ranger's setbacks.

Today, the Linguang family is in a crisis of survival. They have lost their land and their money has been given away to the poor.

Only this old house under his feet had not been taken away by those businessmen who wanted to squeeze every last drop out of it because it was too old.

But force cannot solve everything.

Wen has no first, Wu has no second.

There must be more than one ranger in Casimir, and there must be more than one master.

"What's your code name for this competition?"

"In the name of the family, Fierce Knight!"

"That name just sounds awkward to me."
