Chapter 075: Taeam County
Taeam County is located in the lower reaches of Mohan County, which is far away. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The two counties are about the same size, and because of their proximity to the border, they are not very prosperous.
However, compared to Mohan County, the reputation of Taiyan County is undoubtedly louder.
In the same day, Tianyuan County, Tieji County and became the three southeastern counties of the Yanyang Dynasty.
Taeam County is backed by a special mine that produces an ore called iron rock, which is hard and easy to melt and beat, making it an excellent material for forging blades.
Although the blades forged by iron and rock cannot be listed among the sharp weapons, their sharpness and toughness are not much better than those of ordinary low-grade sharp weapons, and they are mainly used by the government army of the Yanyang Dynasty.
The power of the dynasty should not be underestimated, one is that the dynasty has vast personnel and rich resources, and the other is that the strength of the government army is not bad.
The government army is also the name of the gathering of warriors, but it is led by the lord of the mansion in the Yanyang Dynasty, the general and the like, and the battle is much more fierce than the ordinary warriors through marching and teamwork.
Han Chen had seen a team of fifty people when he was still young in his previous life, but only the fifth-order government army of the Fan Martial Realm was able to win a big victory with his cooperation against a martial artist of the Great Perfection of the Fan Martial Realm.
Since then, Han Chen didn't dare to have any underestimation of the government troops in these dynasties.
Due to the abundance of iron rock, Taiyan County is the main equipment material of the government army, so this county town is also controlled by the Yanyang Dynasty.
Unlike Mohan County, where the family power is at its peak, here, the biggest power is the county seat of Taeam County.
Han Chen and Iron Thorn left Mohan County, and they went directly through the waterway, and it took two full days to finally arrive at the location of Taiyan County.
The dock of Taeam County was set up outside the county town, and after Han Chen and the two got off the boat, they headed for Taeam County.
The distance is still far away, you can see the city wall of Taiyan County standing majestically, the solemn and solemn atmosphere is coming, the layout here is very different from Mohan County, just looking at the appearance has a kind of heavy guarded look.
However, since it is a county town, it is still relatively prosperous.
The gates were wide open, and the carriages, horses, and pedestrians rushed into them, and a long line formed in front of the gates.
"There's a lot of people here." Iron Thorn followed behind Han Chen and said probingly.
Han Chen nodded, he had never been to Taiyan County, and he was also a little curious when he saw this prosperous scene.
But he didn't say much, just walked into the procession, and Iron Thorn followed him honestly.
The speed of the procession was still very fast, and without waiting for a moment, the two of them had already reached the front of the city gate.
On both sides of this large city gate, there are two soldiers in armor and holding long blades.
Seeing Han Chen and the others, the soldiers on the left raised their hands and said angrily, "The entrance fee to the city is five taels per person." As he spoke, he pointed to the huge iron box in front of him, in which there seemed to be more than 200 large and small silver.
Entrance fee? Is there still such a fee?
Listening to the other party's words, Han Chen frowned, thinking about it, it seems that with the prosperity here, the mansion of this Taiyan County is mainly taking the opportunity to make money here.
Five taels per person is really not a small amount, at least it is difficult for those civilian families to make up.
Thinking about it, the monthly living expenses of Han Chen and his wife were only a mere ten taels of silver.
Although he was a little ashamed of this kind of money-collecting behavior in his heart, Han Chen was not stunned who didn't understand anything, and after frowning, he stroked the pouch on his waist, took out a silver ticket and threw it into the iron box on the ground.
The silver ticket of the white flower, which has a full number of 100 taels, fell so lightly.
It's not that Han Chen shows off his wealth, it's just that the silver tickets he has in his hand are still from those Xu family members, and there is no broken silver at all, so he has no choice but to throw away the silver tickets of one hundred taels.
Immediately, the expressions of the two government soldiers who were a little lazy were stunned, and then their faces were surprised.
The person who spoke on the left side hurriedly picked up the silver ticket, and the two hurriedly got together, carefully checked a few points on the silver ticket, and after confirming that it was correct, they glanced at each other, and there was greed in their eyes.
The eyes of the two of them glanced at Han Chen and Iron Thorn slightly, seeing that both of them were young men who were no more than twenty years old, their eyes rolled, and they secretly began to think about something.
When Han Chen saw the expressions of the two of them, he knew that what they were thinking about was definitely not a good thing.
I'm afraid that I see that I have a lot of money here, and I treat the two of me as a fluted boy who is not deeply involved in the world, and I want to extort a few points.
Sure enough, as soon as the thought in Han Chen's heart fell, he saw that the two government soldiers carefully put away the silver ticket, gathered a few points towards this side, and swept their sharp gaze, forcing the restless pedestrians behind him to retreat a little.
The two of them had bad intentions, and the gaze of the person who was speaking on the left swept over the bag on Han Chen's waist, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with a smile, "Taiyan County is a key place guarded by the Yanyang Dynasty, and pedestrians must be strictly searched. ”
Han Chen remained silent, quietly waiting for their next step.
"So, hand over your pouch and we'll check to see if there's anything forbidden." The soldier stretched out his right hand and said in a somewhat threatening tone.
Han Chen didn't speak, and the iron thorns behind him were a little annoyed, "What are you checking for prohibited items, why didn't you see you checking those people before, don't you think that we are really easy to bully when we are not old?" ”
The soldiers were a little rampant and sneered, "Boy, don't talk nonsense, what kind of place is this!" How could our soldiers from Taiyan County bully you two little boys, just hand over the bag and check it. ”
Iron Thorn was about to say something, Han Chen raised his hand to stop his move, and said indifferently, "I don't know, what exactly is the contraband you are talking about?" ”
The soldiers were slightly stunned, originally looking at the iron thorn man tall and big, he should be the leader of the two, but now it seems that the kid behind him is looking at this horse's head.
These two soldiers collect entry fees at this city gate on weekdays, and they have made a lot of money since then, and now they see two big fish who are so rich and look so easy to bully, so they naturally don't want to let go.
"Contraband is contraband, you just have to hand over the bag and let us check it. If you don't have anything special in your bag, I'm afraid you won't be able to check it. The soldier said fearlessly.
Han Chen laughed lightly, his eyes gradually became a little colder, "I have a lot of things in my bag, including tens of thousands of silver taels." ”
Having said this, the greed on the faces of the two government soldiers was even heavier, and their faces were full of joy, and the secret path was really profitable.
Originally, I thought that this kid was going to compromise and honestly present the bag, and when the time came, the two of them casually found something from his bag, and said that it was a prohibited item, and the bag was detained.
Tens of thousands of taels of silver, which is much stronger than the two of them working at the city gate for more than ten years, at that time, how could they still be a mere government soldier guarding the city gate, and they could also smash a centurion, a thousand-torn or something like that.
The extravagant thoughts of the two had not yet been broken, and Han Chen's words came over again, "It's just that the two of you have the ability to come and get it." ”
"Huh?" The two of them stared at each other, and their faces sank, "What do you mean by this kid?" ”
Don't you understand the literal meaning? If you have the ability, I'll give you the bag. ”
"What a rampant boy, he dared to say this in front of our soldiers, I really don't know how thick the sky is." The Nafu soldiers, who had been silent, laughed angrily, "What nonsense are you talking to him, leave this kid's pocket, and then you can expel him from the county under any excuse." ”
The other soldier hesitated and did not answer immediately.
The person next to him was a little anxious, "The transaction of tens of thousands of taels is not something that can be seen when you see it, if you don't do it, don't blame me for swallowing it alone!" ”
There is so much temptation for silver taels. Confused, how could the soldiers beside him still be able to withstand it, gritted his teeth, and his face was hideous, "!" Why don't you do it, I'll let it go, as long as I get these tens of thousands of taels of silver, even if I kill someone in front of the city gate, I can suppress it! ”
"That's it!" The people next to him echoed, and then the spears in the hands of the two shook and they were about to capture Han Chen and the others.
These two people have not yet reached the point of madness, so they raised their hands and did not go straight to the point, but wanted to capture Han Chen and Iron Thorn alive, after all, they were only trying to make money and not kill them.
At the gate of the city, which was originally very lively, there was suddenly such a scene, followed by those people who were still in a hurry to enter the city, and suddenly there was a noise, and they hurriedly retreated to the back, for fear of being contaminated with some disaster.
These two soldiers are all fifth-order martial artists in the Mortal Martial Realm, and because they have received orthodox training, the martial arts they display are very different from different martial artists.
The martial arts of the government soldiers are all based on killing, and there are no such cumbersome phantom tricks, so you can see that the spear shadow is sudden, and the spear suddenly stabs straight towards Han Chen's chest.
The fifth-order of the Martial Realm, the strength is too low.
Han Chen's body was on one side, and he raised his hand seemingly casually, and it happened to be directly on the barrel of the gun, his right hand trembled violently, and a surging force surged out from the barrel of the gun.
The screams sounded, and I saw a flash of blood in the palm of one of the government soldiers, but in this Han Chen's anti-shock strength, it was directly cut by the spear and two sharp marks, but it was snatched away by Han Chen.
Just as the spear of another government soldier also arrived, Han Chen held the gun in his hand, and suddenly waved it, with a crisp crack, the gun in the hand of the house soldier was directly broken into two, and he was also pumped hard by Han Chen, and he was sent flying.
Things happen suddenly, they end faster.
The two fifth-order martial artists of the Mortal Martial Realm really couldn't get into Han Chen's eyes.
In an instant, the two of them were injured and fell to the ground, babbling and moaning sounded, and the two government soldiers did not get up for half a sound.
