Chapter 289: Unwritten Rules
Wang Gengyan guessed that there was nothing wrong at all, and after the old man looked around for a while, he said in a low voice: "Gongzi doesn't know, but if a human monk comes to the demon capital to buy a demon pill, what kind of demon pill he buys, he has to pay a certain amount of taxes to the clan, so as to make up for the inner injustice of the clan, if he does not pay taxes, the consequences will be very strict." ”
"Oh, and there are rules like that?" Wang Gengyan asked a little incomprehensibly: "Does the demon clan have to pay taxes when buying demon pills?" ”
The old man nodded and said, "Yes, but the demon clan will pay much less taxes, and they generally rarely buy demon pills, even if they want to buy them, they will buy their own demon pills." ”
Since maybe others peddle demon pills, but they hate others to buy them, this seems very contradictory.
But after thinking about it carefully, Wang Gengyan finally understood, it seems that there are still some restrictions on the peddling of this demon pill in the demon world, after all, all kinds of demon pills represent different races, and each one is a life.
While unable to stop the sale of demon pills, the demon clans thought of collecting taxes to appease the grief and anger of the clansmen. From this point, it can be seen that the price of the demon pill is definitely not low.
Although all the magic weapons on Wang Gengyan's body had exploded, there were still some spirit stones, and after learning that he had to pay taxes after purchase, he began to inquire about the price of the demon pill.
But this question, Wang Gengyan was stupid, he didn't expect that the demon world used for trading was not a spirit stone at all, but like the mortal world, gold and silver were used as circulating currency.
It stands to reason that it is very easy for a monk to get something like gold and silver, and almost every monk has some of them.
Wang Gengyan rarely walks around in the mortal world, and he has some silver taels on his body, but the amount is not much, it is okay to have a meal in the hotel or something, but it is not enough to buy demon pills.
An ordinary demon pill costs five hundred taels of silver, and the more expensive one is even calculated in gold, which is only the price of purchase, and after buying it, you will have to face those demon clans who collect taxes around you. It's no wonder that this store is so rarely visited, it's just too expensive.
Wang Gengyan touched his storage bag, but finally gave up the purchase and turned around and left the store.
But he hadn't taken a few steps. The old man suddenly exclaimed, "Hey! It's a bit unruly to just look at it and not buy it. ”
“?”
Wang Gengyan turned to look at the old man, his face was dazed, and he thought to himself, it seems that he has to buy it, what kind of rules are there?
The old man's expression was very strict, not like the kind of man who buys and sells. Said slowly: "There are unwritten rules in the demon capital, but if you walk into the shop that sells demon pills, you must buy it after reading it, and the old man is not a pit for you, if you don't believe it, you can go to Baidu to inquire." ”
"What kind of rules are these, it's just too tricky, isn't it?" Wang Gengyan pulled his face and said: "Buying and selling is something you and I are willing to do, how can there be a reason to buy and sell." ”
"Hehe, Childe's words do make sense, but it's just a transaction of ordinary commodities, and the demon pill is the crystallization of the demon clan's lifelong practice. Losing it is equivalent to losing one's life, and it is mostly a forbidden thing, and it causes constant disputes, and it is a blasphemy if you let people watch it at will, and you don't buy it. This is something that the demon world cannot tolerate. ”
Wang Gengyan was a little confused when he heard it, his mind was always confused, and he couldn't understand the true meaning of the old man's words at all.
But this is the demon world after all, and Wang Gengyan doesn't want to conflict with others because of something that he doesn't understand at all. So I had to call the ** over.
"Do you have anything of silver or gold on you?" Wang Gengyan asked.
"Nope." ** replied.
"Do you have gold and silver with you?" Seeing that there was no gold or silver, Wang Gengyan asked Du Kui.
"The old slaves seldom went out and went, and they didn't carry any gold or silver." Du Kui's voice was very low, after answering Wang Gengyan's question. and he was silent no more.
Seeing that there was no gold or silver on the two of them, Wang Gengyan's eyes couldn't help frowning, he had always heard people say that 'it is difficult to divide the money to defeat the hero!' He had never understood the meaning of this sentence, but now that he had experienced it himself, he realized how embarrassing it was.
"Shopkeeper, except for gold and silver. Can I exchange it for other items? Under the scoundrel, Wang Gengyan had no choice but to ask tentatively.
The old man thought for a while and said, "Yes, but I'm afraid the equivalent of this exchange will not satisfy Childe." ”
Looking at Wang Yan's face, the old man continued: "In addition to gold and silver things, things such as magic weapons and pills can also be exchanged for demon pills. ”
"How to trade?"
Now that he was able to exchange magic tools and other things, Wang Gengyan was no longer worried, and walked back to the storefront.
What kind of magic weapon can be exchanged for demon pills, the old man took out a booklet, on which various exchange conditions were densely written, and after Wang Gengyan read it, his face looked extremely ugly.
"Isn't that too bad? Two medium-grade magic weapons are enough to exchange for a defective demon pill, you might as well grab it, hum! Wang Gengyan threw the booklet on the counter, extremely dissatisfied.
However, the old man didn't care, and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, Childe, this exchange table is common to all the capitals, and it is the same everywhere, if you don't believe it, you can ask." ”
It was still that sentence, which suddenly made Wang Gengyan speechless, angrily took out two medium-grade magic weapons, and casually grabbed a demon pill and walked out of the store.
The transaction in this store was completed, but after going outside, Wang Gengyan encountered new troubles, and all the demon clans surrounded them, asking to watch the demon pill bought by Wang Gengyan, waiting to draw taxes!
"Glass Beast's Nedan, haha...... It's from our glass beast clan. After seeing the demon pill, an obese middle-aged man laughed loudly.
Wang Gengyan hated this kind of occasion very much, threw the only magic weapon on his body to the fat man, turned around and left.
Wang Gengyan didn't want to stay in the place of Demon Immortal Building, he was just curious, and planned to buy a few demon pills by the way, but in the end, he was pitted by these unwritten rules, and he was extremely unhappy.
"A demon is a demon, it's unreasonable!" Wang Gengyan scolded in a low voice, and soon took Du Kui and **, and returned to the Demon God Temple sullenly.
However, just when he was about to step into the Demon God Temple, the sky above his head suddenly darkened, and a large cloud appeared indifferently in the sky, followed by a "bang", and the dark clouds instantly turned into black dots and rushed towards the demon capital.
At the same time, the bell in the demon capital also rang out, and people flashed everywhere, and there was chaos.
"Report ...... Fox Emperor, enemy attack! Enemy attack! A dark shadow quickly passed by Wang Gengyan and shouted loudly. (To be continued.) )
