Chapter 197

Wu Chong shook his head and smiled bitterly at the middle-aged man, that is, Brother Li:

"Don't you know Ershao?"

How can you not understand that the Li family is a small family, and if you want to survive, you have to rely on a big family.

So the Li family chose the Wu family.

Over the years, the Wu family has been okay with them, but this second young man has not ruined their tossed family.

The Wu family of Qichuan City on Shanbang Island is a Laopan family with huge power, and it is not the first family in Shanbang Island, but it is second only to the Zhou family.

The five surnames of Shanbang Island: Zhou, Wu, Zheng, Xie, and Feng.

Shan Beng Island is like a watermelon that has been cut into five petals.

The Zhou family occupies the southeast, and the base camp is Qiyin City.

The Wu family occupies the south: Qichuan City.

The Zheng family occupies the west: Qiwu City.

The Xie family occupies the north: Qixie City.

The Feng family occupies the northeast: Qi Zhaocheng.

There are six major cities on Shan Beng Island, each of the five surnames occupies one city, but the central Qitian City is the largest and most prosperous free city, and the towering Buddha statue stands on the Qitian Square in the center of Qitian City.

So who manages Qitian City?

Each of the five surnames sent ten great monks and a thousand elite knights to manage it together.

But their so-called management is not to manage the city, but to be responsible for law and order, even if it is the city security patrol.

In fact, Qitian City has no administrators, it has existed for an unknown number of years, it is said that it is such a large city, it has not expanded, it has not shrunk, and the buildings in the city have not been heard of collapsing and renovated.

The inhabitants of the city are all people who are either rich or noble, and on both sides of the cross street are shops, all of which are high-end cultivation resources, and there are also shops on other larger streets, all of which are daily necessities.

The shops on both sides of the cross street are not run by the five surnames, and the owners of thousands of shops have mysterious origins, but no one dares to provoke them.

In addition to the people with the five surnames, some of the people who live in the city belong to people of the same mysterious origin.

These people are different from those who are in business, they rise and rest, and the fertile fields around Qitian City belong to them.

Armed fighting is not allowed in Qitian City, and if it is violated, it will be punished, even if the joint security patrol team of the five surnames does not care, there are people who will take care of it.

The people in Qitian City are free, no one collects taxes or management fees, barter, as long as the two sides negotiate, then trade, if you can't talk about it, you can't laugh at it, and the business can't be benevolent.

The second young man of the Wu family was so arrogant and domineering, but he didn't dare to go to Qitian City to make trouble.

Qitian City is surrounded by five surnames and five major forces, but the access roads are smooth, Qitian City has eight city gates, that is, there are at least eight roads leading to the sea, and none of these roads and five surnames dare to set up obstacles to Qitian City.

Therefore, Qitian City is indeed the most prosperous of the six big cities, and the circulation of goods is the fastest.

Besides, the second young man of the Wu family led people to the old site of Zongyue Wharf.

Tonight's moonlight is bright, looking at the round moon, it should be the middle of July, Zhang Xian sat on a reef and looked at the full moon in the sky, his thoughts flew to the sapphire blue planet in his previous life, tonight on that planet is the "Zhongyuan Festival", also known as "Ghost Festival," or "Menglan Bon Festival", "Day of the Dead", "Shi Gu", etc.

It is one of the three major festivals, and Taoism calls it "Zhongyuan".

"In the middle of July, the local officials descended to determine the good and evil in the world, and the Taoist priests chanted sutras at night, and the prisoners of the Hunger Festival were also liberated. ”

............

Zhang Xian shook his head, there is no such thing in this world, and now he is far away from his home here, and he can't have a wife and concubine......
