Chapter 259: You really don"t know the hunger of a starving man
"Very well."
Upon hearing these words, Xia Ping looked at these examinees and waved his hand, saying, "Then scram." Don"t be an eyesore here.
However, none of these examinees moved, revealing extremely difficult expressions.
"This, this!"
One of the candidates gritted his teeth and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I also know that this request of mine is too much." "I wonder if you can let us have a sip of water."
"We"ve been exposed to the sun for a few hours since the beginning of the exam." Our body is dehydrated, and we"ve lost a lot of energy. "If this continues, we"re dead."
He bowed his head to Xia Ping.
The group of people looked at Xia Ping pitifully.
"Drink my a.s.s!"
Feng Hetang immediately jumped out and yelled at the examinees, "Weren"t you all so arrogant before? You kept telling us to get lost. You were so arrogant and despotic and didn"t put us in your sights. Now that you"ve been beaten up by my big brother, are you all cowards?
"To tell you the truth, my big brother told you to scram and spared your lives." That is already the greatest gift, and yet all of you still want a yard after taking an inch. You still want to drink water? If you drink pee, you will have your share!
He looked at these examinees with contempt.
"d.a.m.n fatty, don"t go too far!" Each and every examinee was incomparably sullen. They simply wanted to give this d.a.m.n fatty a good beating. Why was there such an abominable lackey in this world? This was forcing them to death.
"So what if I"m going too far?"
Feng Hetang looked like he was asking for a beating. "So what if I"m bullying you?" "Come and bite me if you have the guts."
"You don"t have any skills at all." All you do is talk nonsense here. Go home and find your mother to drink milk. Drinking milk is more nutritious than drinking water. "It suits you."
What the heck!
Many of the examinees clenched their teeth. If it weren"t for the fact that they knew they couldn"t beat Xia Ping in a fight, there would definitely be a group of people who wanted to rush over and beat this hateful fatty into a pig"s head.
"Yes, it"s not impossible to let you drink water, but you have to pay a price." Xia Ping rubbed his chin. He suddenly felt that it was a pity to let these people leave just like that. He might as well make use of the waste.
Besides, there was so much water in the wine bottle tree. A few of them couldn"t finish it.
"Price? What price?" The entire group of examinees focused on Xia Ping.
Xia Ping extended two fingers. "I will allow you to drink water at the wine bottle tree." "Drink as much as you want, but each person must pay 200 million Federation coins as the price for drinking water here."
Two hundred million federal coins?!
When they heard this, all the examinees present were dumbfounded. They looked at Xia Ping as if he were a madman. Did he know what 200 million federal coins were?
For ordinary people, it was an astronomical figure. They would never be able to earn money in their entire lives.
Even for a martial artist, they would have to spend several years living frugally to earn money.
But now they were only drinking water. This guy actually wanted them to pay 200 million Federation coins. Was he crazy?
"You"re robbing!" An examination candidate said so indignantly.
Xia Ping smiled and said, "No, I earn more than robbing."
The group of examinees was speechless. They could not find any reason to refute such reasonable words.
"Of course. If you don"t want to drink it, I won"t force you. After all, I"m not a businessman who forces others to buy and sell things. "I"ve always been fair." Xia Ping expressed that he wasn"t someone who liked to force others.
The group of examinees were filled with grief and indignation. How was this forcing them? This was clearly forcing them. Within a radius of a hundred miles, they couldn"t find a second clean water source; only this place had it.
If they left this place, they would probably die of thirst and be dried up by the sun. Thus, even if they were beaten up by Xia Ping, they were unwilling to leave.
"My brother said 200 million is 200 million." "If you think it"s too expensive, then don"t drink it."
Feng Hetang shouted, "Do you think you"re in a big city?" "In the outside world, a cup of water might be worth one Federation coin, but in the Sandstorm Ruins, it"s worth two hundred million."
"This is not money for water, but money for saving lives!" "Without this water, all of you are dead, understand?"
"Tell me, is your life worth 200 million?" "Now that I think about it, is this 200 million still expensive?!"
Upon hearing this, the group of examinees were stunned.
"Hearing what you said, 200 million is really not expensive." An examination candidate said foolishly.
With a slap, one of his companions slapped him and scolded, "Are you stupid? Don"t listen to that fatty"s nonsense. He"s being unreasonable. Profiteers are all like this. "Don"t be fooled."
"B-But I don"t have that much money on me?"
One of the candidates spoke without much confidence.
"You don"t have that much now, but you will have it in the future." Xia Ping was not worried at all. "I can lend you 200 million first, then you can slowly pay it back. "Three percent interest per month."
Shameless!
The group of examinees gnashed their teeth in anger. Three percent interest per month, and it was still profitable. to think that this fellow could think of such a thing.
If they really signed such a loan, the interest would be lost for a few years. They would have to work for this b.a.s.t.a.r.d for the rest of their lives and be his slaves.
They would all be students of Yan Huang University in the future. After graduation, they would all be in the upper echelons of the federal government. However, they could only be slaves to this b.a.s.t.a.r.d and work for him for the rest of their lives.
This way, they would have no future at all. It would be complete darkness. Even if they really became students of Yan Huang University, they would not feel the slightest joy.
"Impressive, Big Brother." "They actually want to get a loan shark." Feng Hetang was full of admiration. "If they sign this loan shark contract, these people won"t be able to run away." They"ll be your hired thugs and slaves for the rest of their lives.
"You"re too greedy. Why do you need so much money for a high school student? "Aren"t you afraid of being stuffed to death?"
An examinee gnashed his teeth as he glared at Xia Ping. There were 120 people here. If everyone had 200 million, this fellow would have earned over 20 billion.
This number was simply terrifying. No aristocratic family would underestimate this number.
"You make it sound so easy." "There are many places in this world where money is needed." Xia Ping looked at the other party in disdain. "I usually go to brothels and gamble." The cost is huge. I have to keep mistresses and female celebrities. Do you think these places don"t need money? I can"t make ends meet every day. "You really don"t know the hunger of a starving man."
The mouths of the group of candidates twitched. He went to prost.i.tutes and gambled, even still wanting to keep a mistress and a female celebrity. Of course, he would not be able to make ends meet. Even if he had hundreds of billions of a.s.sets, he probably could not afford such an extravagant lifestyle.
This was the first time they heard someone talk about squandering in such a refreshing and refined manner. He was simply shameless to the extreme.
A full man does not know the hunger of a starving man. If there was such a starving man in the world, I want to be one too! Many candidates were filled with grief and indignation.
