Chapter 105: The City of Gold
Obviously, this is an official notice that I am wanted.
Crime: Thick ...... Die to shame?
Reward: 10,000,000 taels...... Rotten tea dregs?
Requirements: Captured alive (this is a good request).
This...... Is it really a notice issued by the government?
Really.
The red official seal in the lower right corner of the notice clearly told the onlookers: This is not a joke.
Are you kidding!
I am a great hero, a rising star in martial arts, the hope of the rivers and lakes, and the future savior of the ninety-nine states, but because of his brazenness, he was offered a reward of 10 million taels of rotten tea dregs?
Who did this to you?
I was so angry in my heart, I stared, gritted my teeth, rolled up my sleeves on both sides, and ...... on the spot Pick up a handful of wet mud and paste it on your face.
There's no way, heroes don't suffer immediate losses.
By the way, why is there wet mud on the ground near the city gate?
Looking at the camels and horses that kept walking by, I suddenly realized that I didn't want to pursue such small details.
Nausea......
"Little brother, do you look familiar?" I was throwing up when someone tapped me on the shoulder.
When I looked up, it turned out to be a heavily armed soldier.
Behind him, there was a whole team of similarly equipped companions, all of them fierce.
"This military master, what's the matter?" When I stood up, the somersault technique quietly kicked in, and my body was raised several inches.
"You ......," the soldier looked at me suspiciously, and then turned his head to look at the sign, "I warn you not to do such a thing that is detrimental to the appearance of the city again." ”
"You say this? This is the custom of our tribe, pray for the blessing of the camel god......" I handed the wet mud in my hand to him, pretending to be stupid.
"Get out!" The soldier looked disgusted.
"Yes, yes." I took the opportunity to blend in with the crowd.
As he walked, he muttered in his heart: My son still dares to take care of Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is gone, and all the rest are grandchildren......
Well, it's comfortable.
Look left and right to make sure no one is following me, hurry to the drinking mrough next to me, and wash the wet mud off my face.
The little black horse, who bowed his head and was about to drink water, silently twisted the horse's face.
I was about to leave, but a rough-faced man flashed out and blocked my way.
"Little beggar, dare to pollute the uncle's horse drinking water?" The rough-faced man said angrily.
"What little beggar?" I was furious, "You didn't see this little master...... What a taste it is to rotten clothes......"
It was only then that I realized that after tossing and turning in the desert for a night, the clothes on my body were already miserable.
As the saying goes, people rely on clothes, and if they don't have decent clothes, the tone of their voices will inevitably be three points lower.
"Hey, take a closer look, it seems to be a bit of a taste." The rough-faced man showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, flicked two fingers on my clothes a few times, and suddenly grabbed the placket of my clothes: "Stinky boy, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and pay the uncle's water money!" ”
"Do you have to lose money to use your water?" My eyes widened.
"What do you think?" The rough-faced man's eyes widened wider than mine, "Water in the desert is as expensive as gold, and this tank of horse water has to pay at least this amount." ”
As he spoke, he held out a finger.
A finger?
That's a lot of learning.
A penny is naturally impossible, a tael, or a hundred taels?
I didn't believe it, and he dared to ask me for a thousand taels of horse water.
"Tell me, how much do you want." I took a few taels of silver from my bosom and tossed them in my hand.
"Yo, the beggars are really generous now." The rough-faced man looked like he was not surprised, "Uncle Ben is not short of these taels of silver, you have to pay me a hundred water chips." ”
"Water chips?" I scratched at my hair.
"I don't even know about the water chip, it turns out to be a sheep." The rough-faced man sneered.
Sheep is a local vernacular, which means that you don't understand anything, and it's easy to deceive.
But when he said that, I was relieved.
Even if I'm a sheep, this guy is obviously a bull, and he doesn't know how to turn when he runs.
When I first arrived, my eyes were darkened, and I just happened to ask him to familiarize myself with the local situation.
With that in mind, I asked him, "Then tell me, what exactly is a water chip?" ”
"It's not easy." The rough-faced man said, "Water chips, water chips, just listen to the name, of course, it is the chips you need to use to buy water." ”
"You need chips to buy water!" I was taken aback.
"Or do you think?" The rough-faced man said disdainfully, "There are many rich people in this golden city, but having money does not mean that there is water, if you want to buy water, you must have water chips, and how much water chips you can buy." ”
Terrible!
I have long heard that in the Golden City, there are as many rich people as dogs, and local tyrants are everywhere; With so many rich people, how can the authorities contain them?
The trick of water chips can be described as a high-end means that is not bloody.
In the Golden City, there are capable people.
"That'...... How can I get water chips? I asked again.
"If you're a resident of the city, you can get a certain amount of water every month." The rough-faced man said, "It's a pity that you're not, so you can only go off the rails." ”
I listened.
"There is water to sell on the black market." The rough-faced man said, "The price of each water chip is 300 to 500 taels, and it is often still priceless." ”
"Isn't that 100 water chips 30,000 or 50,000 taels?" I was dumbfounded.
"Thirty tens of thousands of taels of silver, it's not a matter at all in the Golden City." The rough-faced man shook a finger, "Since it is a capital offense to sell water chips, there are usually no more than five hundred water chips that appear on the black market every day. ”
"There must be another way, right?" I say.
"Of course." The rough-faced man grinned, "Selling water chips is a capital offense, but ...... Gambling on water chips is not prohibited! ”
Gambling on water chips?
Looking at the obscenity on this's face, I knew what he was thinking.
"Even if I want to gamble, I don't have the capital." I spread my hands.
"Don't worry, I really want to gamble, I'll help you find a way to do it." The rough-faced man said as he shook his chest.
Yes, your solution is to sell me.
"Thanks, I'll figure it out myself......" How could I not understand this guy's black words, and I turned around and wanted to slip away.
"Still want to run?" The rough-faced man sneered, his arms fluttered together, and two strong winds suddenly blocked my way.
I was secretly shocked in my heart: the martial arts of this product are not weak.
Character name: Rough-faced man
Character Relationship: Malicious
Commonly used weapons: fists and feet
Martial Arts Realm: Practice Makes Perfect (Sixfold Realm)
Internal cultivation is: open 50 veins
……
His martial arts realm may not be as good as the old rivers and lakes like Black Lianhuan and Jinyan Biao, but his level of martial arts cultivation is obviously a grade higher than those copycat kings.
In Yuan and Heng Prefectures, a person of his level can already become a strong party.
But in this golden city, it is only a land snake of extortion.
I finally came to my senses - it turned out that I had really arrived at a place where dragons and tigers were in the middle of the world, and the masters were like clouds!
