Temple.

The holy land on the grassland, standing in the middle of the vast grassland, rì mulberry represents the place where the sun rises, or the place where the sun can be seen here, the whole grassland has also been divided into east and west grasslands with the rì mulberry mountain as a marker, the east of the rì mulberry mountain belongs to the jurisdiction of the king of the left, and the west is under the jurisdiction of the king of the right.

The temple is on the Rì Sang Mountain, the Rì Sang Mountain is nearly 10,000 meters high, ordinary people can't go up at all, but every year there are always countless grassland people who gather here with the intention of going up the mountain to worship the gods, but they can't go up can only worship under the mountain, over time, a city is formed under the Rì Sang Mountain, a city that is not smaller than the capital of any country in the Central Plains, called the Divine City, which is not under the jurisdiction of the left and right kings, but is directly managed by the temple.

There are millions of resident residents in the Divine City, and tens of millions of floating people come here every year to worship, and there are countless business opportunities here, not only the major forces of the grassland, but also the countries of the Central Plains have also set up shops here, one is to do business, and the other is also based on the core of the grassland, and it is also convenient to inquire about the news.

It is worthy of being the greatest city on the grassland.

Wang Mang looked at a freshly baked document in his hand, this document was taken out by King Zuo Xian before for the tribes to distribute, and now he actually followed Wang Mang's footsteps to the Divine City, and the speed was not fast.

Wang Mang secretly thought that it was impossible for King Zuo Xian to pass things over so quickly at his speed, and it was likely that before King Zuo Xian took it out, he had already ordered someone to make an appointment to spread it to the Divine City first, after all, this is the largest news center in the grassland, if the news spreads here, as the itinerant people who come to worship disperse, the news can quickly spread in the vast grassland, and the speed of transmission will be faster.

A temple knight walked straight up to Wang Mang, stretched out his hand and said: "Receive the great sacrifice order, please hand over the documents in your hands and destroy them by the temple, according to the commander of the high priesthood, this news must not be spread at will, and violators will be blacklisted by the temple." ”

Wang Mang was stunned, and handed the documents directly to the Templars, he had already seen that many Templars were searching for this document all over the city, even in this restaurant, there were also many Templars searching for documents, and the owner and men of the restaurant were invited by the Templars to the side to accept the reprimand.

"You're not a steppe?" said the Templar suddenly.

Wang Mang's god remained unchanged and said, "Isn't the Divine City open to the people of the world, I want to come here to admire the great deeds of God, isn't this okay?"

"Take over the commander of the high priesthood and comprehensively investigate the suspicious characters in the Divine City. The Templar said coldly, "Who are you, where are you from, how long have you been here, and what are you going to do?"

"My name is Han Li, a Korean, I came from Korea to worship the great miracles of God, and I just came here today. Wang Mang did not hesitate to use the name of Han Li, the ancestor of South Korea.

The Templar looked at Wang Mang and said coldly: "I will verify what you said, and you are not allowed to leave the Divine City until you get permission, and those who leave without permission will be killed!"

With that, the Templar turned and left.

Wang Mang shook his head noncommittally, with his strength, he just wanted to leave, what could these Templars do?

Looking at the temple knights who suddenly appeared all over the city to search for documents, Wang Mang knew that what Zuo Xian Wang had done had an effect, or that he had succeeded in beating the grass and startling the snake, and if the temple was above board, there was no need to care about these "lace tabloids" at all.

Looks like something is really wrong with this temple.

Wang Mang walked out of the restaurant, Wang Mang has always felt that the restaurant is the best place to find out the news, so as soon as he entered the Divine City, Wang Mang entered this seemingly crowded restaurant, but after doing it in the restaurant for a long time, he found that the diners in the restaurant were like dumb people who only ate and did not speak, even if they spoke, they must be gods, and they didn't talk about anything other than the gods.

This is a city of gods, the city is full of devout believers, almost everywhere there are grassland people with vicissitudes of life kneeling on the ground and kissing the ground under their feet, muttering about the worship of the gods, of course, there are some people interspersed with believers to do business, but they hardly do anything except business, Wang Mang got the documents from one of the businessmen, and now these documents have been confiscated by the Templar Knights.

Wang Mang walked slowly in the city, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this city was strange, he walked to the Central Plains countries in the city to open the market, here and outside only one street, but very different, this market is full of vitality, but outside the market is lifeless.

"Childe's face is very raw, and he looks like he has just arrived in the Divine City. A figure suddenly appeared beside Wang Mang, and arched his hand towards Wang Mang: "Childe needs to be served, the attendants of the small shop are all carefully selected, and the attendants of the small shops on the ground within a radius of hundreds of miles of the Divine City know it, and it is definitely worth the money." ”

Guide?

Wang Mang was stunned for a moment, vaguely knowing what the shopkeeper was talking about, he took out a few taels of silver casually, and said, "The attendant doesn't need it, but there are some things I want to ask you about." ”

"This ......" The shopkeeper did not put away the silver taels, but said: "In this divine city, there are many things that cannot be inquired about, Gongzi asked, I can say what I can, if I don't know, I won't say." ”

"I see that the inside and outside of this market are like two worlds, and the outside seems to look very dull, and I don't understand. Wang Mang said.

"Childe seems to be here for the first time. The shopkeeper said, "Let's put it this way, this city is a city of faith, and the people in the city are all devout followers of the gods, and they don't come here to do anything else, just to worship." ”

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said: "I originally thought that there were millions of people living here, and there were tens of millions of floating people every year, in terms of population alone, it was even one of the largest cities in the whole continent, and from the perspective of the floating population, it was the best place to do business, but I didn't expect that this was actually a city of faith, and those who came here came to worship, and the money was also dedicated to God, so they wouldn't come to us to buy things at all, hey!"

"Sigh what? There are so many of them, there are always a few people who come to buy something. Wang Mang said: "It's not that the shopkeeper thinks that he has made less money." ”

"Where is the profit, it is clearly a loss to make money. The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "Let's put it this way, because there is a large population here, and it is the closest place to the temple, under the arch of countless temple knights, this is probably the safest place in the whole grassland, so the housing prices here are not low, and the prices of the shops here are even higher and scared to death. ”

Shaking his head and sighing, the shopkeeper continued: "As early as more than ten years ago, I had the opportunity to sell the store out, but unfortunately I didn't have a plate at that time, and now I can't get out if I want to. ”

"What do you say?" Wang Mang said: "If you want to make a plate, there is still a reason why you can't get out?"

"It's not that there is another fight on the grassland, and then countless grassland nobles flock to it, in less than half a year, this divine city has increased the population of millions of people, most of them are the nobles on the grassland, these people have money, they come here to buy a family business, and in a short period of time, the housing prices of this divine city have risen to a new level. The shopkeeper smiled bitterly: "Now a small courtyard in the Divine City is sold for millions of silver, which is like robbing money." ”

"The price is high, boss, if you sell the store, won't you still be able to make a little money?" Wang Mang said with a smile.

"Sell it to whom. The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "The house prices in this city are all regulated, they can be high but never low, for example, my small shop, the market price is now 2.5 million silver, which can be higher than this price, but it must not be lower than this price. ”

"How do you say that?" Wang Mang said.

"This fang city is specially opened up by the city of God for our Central Plains people to do business, this point living in the city of the prairie people know, now the people who come to the city of God are all grassland people, even if we have a house here, they will not come to buy it, they will not live with us, because we are not believers in the gods, for those grassland people, we are all dirty pagans, they want us people to die, how can they buy a house here to live with us?" Therefore, I have no chance to sell this shop to the grassland nobles who poured into the Divine City, so I can only sell it to the people of the Central Plains, the question is who will buy it?"

Looking at Wang Mang, the shopkeeper smiled and said: "Just like Gongzi, now that you know the situation in the market, I will sell the store to you at the benchmark price of 2.5 million taels, do you want it?"

Two hundred and five only!

Wang Mang shook his head, although he was rich, he didn't do business, and he had nothing to do with buying a shop here.

The shopkeeper has some regrets, he said that these are actually a temptation, he has been doing business here for so long, the shopkeeper knows very well that there are many shops in this city that are not self-employed like him, but the strongholds of the major forces in the Central Plains in the Divine City, these people don't care about the quality of the business, anyway, they don't expect to survive in business, he is looking for Wang Mang just to see if Wang Mang is the person sent here by the Central Plains forces, if so, his shop will be counted, his former old neighbor Li Laosi encountered such a good thing the year before last, and ran away, now looking at Wang Mang's appearance, it is obvious that he is not here to inquire about intelligence, and his plan to sell the store has failed。

"What is Childe doing here, can I help?" The shopkeeper couldn't sell the store, so he wanted to see if he could find any business opportunities in Wang Mang.

Wang Mang said: "The name of the Divine City is very big, come here to see and see, it can be regarded as increasing knowledge, where is the shopkeeper?"

"Qin people. The shopkeeper said: "Qin is a small country, and Gongzi is from a big country, right?"

"Qin is not a small country. Wang Mang said with a smile: "The shopkeeper must have not been back for a long time, before I came to Shencheng, I heard that the Qin State had sent a letter to Guguan to annex Korea." ”

"Annexation of Korea?" The shopkeeper exclaimed: "How is this possible, South Korea is a big country, although I am a Qin person, I never think that Qin can swallow Korea, Gongzi is not deceiving you." ”

"What do you lie to do. After Wang Mang knew that the person in front of him was actually a Qin person, he had a good impression in his heart, and said: "This news must have spread now, even if I don't say it, you will know it soon." ”

"This ......," the shopkeeper said, "It's not that I don't believe it, but what Gongzi said is a little unbelievable, a few years ago, I also communicated with merchants from Qin, and I heard that the new emperor of Qin is a well-known waste...... The lazy emperor, ignoring the government and politics, all the power of the court is controlled by the queen mother and the ministers of the court, so that the Qin State has already destroyed the country, and in just a few years, the Qin State can annex Korea, which is unbelievable. ”

I'm afraid I want to say that I am a waste devourer, right? But the lazy emperor will take the nickname.

Wang Mang didn't care about the shopkeeper's comments about him, some of his behaviors in the past few years were really not good, if it weren't for Shangguan Wan'er who had been escorting him, maybe before he woke up, the Qin State would have been gone, and it was normal for old Qin people like the shopkeeper to be a little dissatisfied with him.

But this is all in the past, as the so-called Shibei Sanrì should be impressed, the current Qin State has long been very different, and his status in the eyes of his relatives has also been very different, looking at the entire Qin State, I am afraid that no old Qin person dares to say that he Wang Mang is a waste emperor.

The person in front of him has been in the Divine City and has not been back for a long time, and it is normal to have some misunderstandings about him, Wang Mang is too lazy to praise himself, so he said: "The Qin State has become very different now under the leadership of the Qin Emperor, and it is normal for the shopkeeper to avoid living here and not knowing, if the shopkeeper has the opportunity to go back, maybe he can see a different Qin State, as long as the shopkeeper knows a little, the Qin State is very strong now." ”

The shopkeeper looked at Wang Mang suspiciously, and suddenly said, "Isn't the son also from Qin?"

"That's right. Wang Mang nodded and said, "To be precise, I am a Korean, but Korea has now been annexed by the Qin State, and the Korean Emperor Han Yu has also claimed to be a Qin person, so I am naturally also a Qin person." ”

Wang Mang originally planned to admit his identity as a Qin person, but suddenly thought that he had already told the temple knight that his name was Han Li and he was from South Korea, at this time, if he said that he was a Qin person, there was a risk of being exposed, after all, this was where the temple was located, and there were countless masters in the temple, Wang Mang didn't think that he could really be a master of refining gods on the grassland.

Although the shopkeeper still didn't believe it, he didn't dare to believe it, so he said: "If Childe needs help in the Divine City, if he can do it, he will definitely help." ”

After speaking, the shopkeeper left directly, the businessman saw people very accurately, he felt that this son had a dangerous aura on him, this is not an ordinary person, he has no idea of clinging, only the idea of staying away.

Wang Mang didn't know why the shopkeeper suddenly became cold to him, as for the shopkeeper's so-called help, Wang Mang didn't care at all, people had already said that they could help, implying that they should not come to others if they were really in difficulty, shook his head, walked forward, and went in and out of some shops at will, for different lengths of time, until he entered a small shop and stretched out five fingers to the shopkeeper.
