"Sir, do you need a guide?"

"Sir, do you need a servant?"

"Sir, buy a newspaper!"

"Sir..."

As soon as Zuo Yi walked out of the isolation fence outside the central tower, many children immediately surrounded him, recommending themselves or peddling goods to him.

The children, all in their teens, had curly yellow hair and blue or red eyes, apparently descendants of immigrants from the Kingdom of Seles.

There are fifty or sixty thousand transcendents from Great Xia in the Dragon City Fortress, and the number of immigrants is more than one hundred thousand!

With the exception of a few mages, knights, and artisans supported by the Kingdom of Celes, most of the Celes immigrants were commoners and pariahs, and although they were of humble status, their role in the city was irreplaceable.

Workers in the workshops, farmers in the underground farms, cleaners, handymen, waiters, shopkeepers, individual craftsmen... Without the hard work of these people, the current Dragon City Fortress would not be able to sustain for a single day.

Zuo Yi once read an investigation report on the Dragon City Fortress, and believed that these Celes immigrants had actually become an important bargaining chip for the Celes Kingdom to maintain its influence on the Dragon City Fortress, and their role was even greater than that of the mages and knights sent by the royal family!

And most of these Celes who traveled thousands of miles to the Dragon City Fortress to beg for a living were bankrupt and bankrupt, and most of them couldn't get along in their hometowns, so they took the risk of choosing this city as their new home.

You must know that the Dragon City Fortress is located on the northwest border of the Kingdom of Seles, and it is always facing the threat of the orcs.

Who would want to make a home in the local area?

It is said that the most attractive thing about the Celes civilians in the Dragon City Fortress is that the class gap in this city is not very large, and the transcendents of Great Xia are quite friendly to them, and there are no nobles above their heads to kill and kill, both in terms of environment and security, they are far beyond the vast majority of cities in the Celes Kingdom.

Of course, if you want to live a better life in Dragon City Fortress, you have to work, even for children.

Zuo Yi didn't have a single coin in his pocket, so he ignored the salesmen, and reached out and pointed at a little girl about ten years old who was looking for a job tour guide: "What's your name?"

There are four or five children who want to be Zuo Yi's tour guide, and she is the only girl, thin and small, although her clothes are a little shabby, but she is dressed neatly and neatly, unlike the other sloppy ones.

"Hello sir. ”

The little girl held back the joy in her heart, stepped forward and saluted Zuo Yi respectfully: "My name is Nia, I am honored to serve you, I was born in Dragon City, and I am very familiar with this place. ”

She speaks Chinese very standardly, and she basically can't hear that awkward accent.

And Zuo Yi chose her, and the other children scattered in disappointment, waiting for the next target.

"Good. ”

Zuo Yi nodded and said, "Now you take me to the bank." ”

The currency circulating in the Dragon City Fortress is not the Xia Yuan of Great Xia, but the gold, silver and copper coins of the Celes Kingdom, and the transcendents who come from Great Xia can take the gold to the bank for exchange.

The bank in the Dragon City Fortress was jointly opened by Great Xia and the Kingdom of Celes.

If the transcendents of Great Xia want to live in the Dragon City Fortress, they can either bring gold to exchange it, or go to various tasks issued by the Dragon City Management Committee to get paid, or join the Dragon City Guard and various departments under the Management Committee.

Zuo Yi didn't plan to stay in the Dragon City Fortress, of course he wouldn't do a mission to work, his spatial ring still stored hundreds of tons of gold, just take out a piece is enough to spend here.

Nia immediately said, "My lord, please come with me, the bank is in front." ”

Doodle!

At this moment, with the sound of a whistle, a black four-wheeled steam car drove past the two men.

Zuo Yi couldn't help but take a few more looks.

The environment, the roads and buildings, the attire of pedestrians, and the steam machines that drive on the roads give rise to the smell of the Industrial Revolution.

"This is a Bison III steam car..."

Nia introduced: "The latest production from the Bison Steam Machinery Factory costs more than 100 gold coins. ”

The metal currency of the Kingdom of Seles, 1 gold = 10 silver = 1000 copper, in addition to copper horn auxiliary coins, the purchasing power of 1 copper is roughly equivalent to 1 summer yuan, and more than 100 gold is more than 100,000 summer yuan.

It's a luxury here.

Zuo Yi was curious: "You know everything about cars?"

Nia puffed up her chest and said proudly, "My dad works at the Bison Steam Machinery Factory!"

No wonder that.

Under the leadership of Nia, Zuo Yi soon came to the bank.

He exchanged a 10Kg gold brick for the gold coins of the Kingdom of Seles, which was filled with a large bag of more than 3,000 pieces.

Zuo Yi casually grabbed a few gold coins and gave them to Nia: "The tour guide fee will be given to you first." ”

"My lord, it's too much. ”

Nya blushed suddenly, waved her hand again and again, and said, "One silver coin is enough." ”

"If you take it, take it. ”

Zuo Yi forced it into her hand, and then put the money bag into the space ring: "Let's go." ”

Nia's eyes were red: "Thank you, sir." ”

She dutifully took Zuo Yi on a tour of the Dragon City Fortress and did her best to answer Zuo Yi's questions.

Zuo Yi understood almost everything, and seeing that it was already dark, he said, "Okay, let's go here, it's not early, you go home quickly." ”

Nia didn't expect her task to be completed so quickly, she was stunned for a moment before coming back to her senses, and then bowed deeply to Zuo Yi, and said gratefully, "Thank you, sir!"

Zuo Yi gave her a full six gold coins, equivalent to two months' salary of her father!

Zuo Yi couldn't help but reach out and rub her head, and said, "Go ahead." ”

Nia said "um", turned around and ran, like a rabbit chased by a hound, panicked and timid.

Zuo Yi smiled dumbly.

He stopped a horse-drawn cab that had just passed by and asked the driver to take him to the biggest and busiest tavern in town.

The largest and most lively tavern in the Dragon City Fortress is called the Tonglong Tavern, and when Zuo Yi came over by taxi carriage, the tavern was already very lively, gathering one or two hundred drinkers.

There are many Celes people in these drinkers, and there are also transcendents in Great Xia, and the waiters who serve drinks in the tavern are all beautiful blonde girls, all of whom are charming, bold and courteous, which is probably the fundamental reason for the prosperity of business here.

Unlike the guests whose eyes were glued to the tavern girl, Zuo Yi looked for a target in the crowd and soon made a discovery.

He ordered an ale at the bar and walked straight to his target with his glass in hand.

"Hello everyone. ”
