Chapter 15: Wushan County
Ye Bin was wearing ordinary cloth clothes, carrying a huge amount of money, blending in the crowd, with a little embarrassment on his face, wandering in Wushan County.
Why is it embarrassing.
This has to start before entering Wushan County......
Before entering Wushan County, Hua Tuo handed over a letter to his apprentice to Ye Bin, then said goodbye and left, leaving Ye Bin alone, and entered Wushan County in a daze.
The people of Wushan County are dressed strangely, some wear necklaces and bracelets made of beast skulls, some are dressed in gray coats, and they are in a hurry, and there are even people with horizontal flesh and naked bodies.
However, although these people are eccentric, they are still in normal attire here, but Ye Bin is different.
When he first entered the county seat, Ye Bin only had a tiger skin apron to cover his lower body, carrying a huge package on his back, like a wild man, so that everyone stopped and watched.
Rao is Ye Bin is not thin-skinned, and he is also very embarrassed, but fortunately, he didn't find any players here, which can be regarded as a comfort.
The package contained twenty hides, and a total of ten silver coins were sold.
In the game Century, there are three types of money in all countries.
Copper, silver, gold.
1 Gold = 100 Silver = 10,000 Copper Coins.
Of course, these are just the most common coins, but there are others such as gold bricks, gold bars, gold ingots, silver ingots, etc.
However, those are all things that only exist in rich and noble families, and it is rare for ordinary people to see them.
In the game, the prices are very uneven in various places, for example, the animal skins carried by Ye Bin can only sell for 10 silver coins here, but if they are in a prosperous area, they can also sell at least 50 silver coins.
Although Ye Bin didn't know much about these things, he still heard about them, but he was not interested, so he would go somewhere else now.
Although this Wushan County is not very large, it also has a population of hundreds of thousands, and the tall city towers south of Shenci Mountain, which looks majestic and intimidating.
Ye Bin, whether in reality or in the game, saw such a huge city for the first time, and he was unconsciously fascinated.
"I don't know when I will be able to have such a city!"
Ye Bin didn't know that this kind of county seat was still too far away for players, and upgrading from a village to a county seat was far from being as simple as imagined.
Groups of soldiers dressed in gray-brown uniforms and armed with wooden poles and iron-tipped spears, with lazy faces, roamed the streets and alleys.
"This is the System Soldier?"
Ye Bin frowned, thinking suspiciously, the system soldier in his heart should be dressed in armor, holding a steel knife, and his face is stern.
In fact, this is Ye Bin's thoughts, although the land of Shenzhou is rich in resources, but at this time, mining relies entirely on manpower, and if you want a team of soldiers to be fully armed, you need a lot of money.
In the game, a soldier can have about three layers of fully armed soldiers, then it can be called elite.
And most of the armies only have generals who wear armor.
After two days of familiarization in Wushan County, Ye Bin finally had a general understanding of this county seat, and also understood the geographical location of Shenci Mountain.
It turns out that this Shennongjia is actually the modern Shennongjia, but the Shennongjia in the game has made many changes, and the biggest change is that the Shennongjia has expanded a thousand times.
The god gives the mountain to the north to refuse the division, the west is close to Bashu, the east is bordered by Jingxiang, the Yangtze River crosses through, there are countless large and small lakes.
With such a big place and such abundant resources, why didn't the imperial court pay attention to it, or even ignore it?
The Eastern Han Dynasty did not have an air force at this time, and it was very difficult for the plains soldiers to climb the mountain, not to mention these for the time being, the most important thing is that the Shenci Mountain, that is, Shennongjia, is full of swamps here, and there are countless poisonous insects and beasts, and the imperial court has sent many people to explore this place.
But most of them returned in vain, and after a long time, no one cared.
In fact, these are not the main reasons, under the telling of an elder, Ye Bin finally has a general understanding of this place.
There are three forces around Shenci Mountain that cannot be offended, one is the Tujia family, the second is the bandits, and the third is the merchants.
The Tujia people are the native mountain people of the gods-given mountains, they have grown up here for generations, and they have long been deeply rooted in this place, and even the county orders of the surrounding counties have to look at the face of the Tujia.
They have a brutal temperament, are brave and ruthless, and when they disagree, they draw their swords against each other, and they are very domineering.
Shenci Mountain is rich in resources, the terrain is dangerous, and it has a natural attraction to bandits, these bandits are haunted, and the government has tried to suppress bandits countless times, but they have not succeeded, but have suffered heavy losses.
Shangjia is considered to be the worst force in force, but they are still not to be underestimated, although it is said that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, Shangjia was not taken seriously, and the status of Shinong Industry and Commerce was the lowest.
But they have an astonishing wealth in their hands, a wide range of channels, and a wealth of connections, which is breathtaking.
They joined forces to control prices and grain prices at will, and even the county decree had nothing to do with them, so they could only let it go.
"Tujia, bandits, merchants!"
Ye Bin frowned, he didn't expect that near Shennongjia, there would be such chaos, and he didn't know how the people here endured it.
"These three forces should have colluded with each other for a long time, otherwise, it would never have been rampant to this day."
Ye Bin is not the county commander here, so he can't worry about it, but he can't ignore it, after all, this is his foundation in the future, although he has no ambition to completely control Shennongjia, but at least Shennong Valley he does not allow outsiders to get involved.
I heard a lot of rumors in Wushan County, but I never heard anyone mention Shennong Valley, which made Ye Bin a little puzzled.
The area of Shennong Valley is huge, at least Ye Bin doesn't know how big it is, but just the place he saw can accommodate at least tens of millions of people, such a big place, the imperial court completely ignored it, and the Tujia and the thieves also looked unaware.
He heard Cheng Aliang, the leader of the three commanders, say that someone once attacked Shennong Valley, although he did not succeed, but this can at least prove that Shennong Valley is not isolated from the world, how can no one know?
Pressing the doubts in his heart for the time being, Ye Bin has two most important things to do when he goes out of the valley, one is to find a way to upgrade, and the other is to find a lord token.
He has a rough idea of this escalation method, and he just needs to try, but this matter can't be messed around, he can only wait for the opportunity.
As for the lord token, he has no clue for the time being, this thing is a product exclusive to the player, in this Wushan County, he hasn't seen the player yet, and he hasn't heard of anyone building a territory nearby, and he can't find a place if he wants to ask.
As for the forums, there is generally no inside information published there, and if you want to find answers there, it is better to buy lottery tickets.
"This little brother, the old man looked at you with frowning brows and an irritable look, do you think you have something on your mind?"
Ye Bin was startled when he heard someone talking to him, looked up, and found that this person was of medium appearance, dressed ordinarily, and had a burly figure.
"Yellow Turban?"
Ye Bin secretly speculated about this person's intentions, these NPCs must not be underestimated, otherwise, they don't know how they died.
"Little brother?"
Ye Bin nodded with a smile and said, "I really have doubts below!" ”
The old man smiled and said, "I don't know what the little brother is worried about?" Can you say it explicitly? ”
Ye Bin shook his head and said, "Outsiders can't help with this matter!" ”
The old man didn't care, and still said with a smile: "Actually, even if the little brother says it, the old man may not be able to help much, but the old man can introduce a place to go, where the little brother will definitely get the answer." ”
Ye Bin smiled, this person is not strange, the two don't know each other at all, but they came up to talk, looking familiar......
Seeing that Ye Bin didn't seem to believe it, the old man said:
"There is a great good heavenly master, who accepts a wide range of followers and purifies all sentient beings, which can free people from suffering, so why not give it a try?"
Ye Bin smiled secretly, this person was originally recruiting people for Zhang Jiao, and they all came to Wushan, which is really not to be underestimated.
"Ahem, this one, let's talk about it, let's talk about it!"
found out that this person was really a member of the Yellow Turban Army, Ye Bin did not dare to offend, when the Yellow Turban Army first revolted, the momentum was huge, shaking the government and the opposition, it was not at all that he, a small person, could be low-grade, once he was hated by others, who knew what the consequences would be.
But he doesn't plan to join the Yellow Turban Army, he is a modern person, of course he knows that the Yellow Turban Rebellion is bound to fail, and the current players are still relatively fragile and can't change history at all.
In fact, it doesn't matter, players are profit-seeking, as long as there are interests, even if they join the Yellow Turban, it's nothing, it's a big deal to rebel when the time comes, but for people with long-term ideals, the Yellow Turban is not a wise choice.
A thief for one day, a thief for life.
People in the Three Kingdoms period paid special attention to their background, if you were once a thief, and you want to recruit celebrities in the future, it will be difficult, and people don't like you at all......
The old man saw that Ye Bin was a little perfunctory, and his expression was a little unswerving, but he still didn't say anything, hugged his fists, and persuaded others to go.
"So flamboyant? Could it be that the Yellow Turban Rebellion is about to begin? No, it should be half a year! ”
Ye Bin thought with some doubts, the impact of the Yellow Turban Uprising was too great, and he had to find the lord token and build a territory before the Yellow Turban Uprising.
With the territory, there will be systematic recognition, and when the time comes, as long as someone recommends it, it is not impossible to add officials to the knighthood.
What is the most important thing to grow? Talent!
How can we have talent? Of course, it is necessary to have a reputation, you don't see Liu Bei's children's shoes, since becoming Uncle Liu Huang, although he is still fleeing from a hundred battles, but the team is getting bigger and bigger, this is the importance of reputation.
"Hey, Lao Tzu was driven here by that son of a bitch, this hatred, Lao Tzu will not forget!"
"Second brother, listen to my brother's advice, that kid is too powerful, let's bear with it, if we have a chance in the future, bite him hard, if you can't kill him, you have to bite him!"
