89. Scenery in the city
"Stop, pass." As the long procession progressed, after half an hour, it was finally the turn of Dati and Shuhan to go through the formalities of entering the city, Dati handed the two passes to the soldiers, and then stuffed a gold coin behind the passes and handed them to the soldiers.
Shu Han witnessed everything beside him and didn't speak, the soldier got the pass, naturally felt the gold coin behind him, looked at Dati and Shu Han with his eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and motioned to the two pawns around him to search Shu Han's carriage, the two received the eyes of their bosses, walked forward and just pulled them casually, then walked back and said, "No problem." ”
"Let's go." The boss spoke.
The two of them followed the people in front of them and walked forward, until they entered the city, Shu Han breathed a sigh of relief, but Dati on the side was very relaxed, Shu Han sat next to Dati, and couldn't help but turn his head and look at the carriage, a white cloth covered more than half of the area of the body, and below, there were three hundred kilograms of tiger meat and tiger bones.
The life of the overseers has been very difficult before Shu Han came, in order to subsidize the family, many people will take advantage of the time to get off work to earn some extra money, one of which is hunting, although now life is better, but hunting has become a daily entertainment activity for the overseers, on the one hand, exercise, on the other hand, boasting of martial arts, this colorful big cat, was caught by Dati three days ago.
At that time, Dati was very happy, no matter which part of this tiger is, it can be sold at a very high price in the Black Iron City, and such a little meat can be worth at least about two hundred gold coins, so Dati and the others are naturally reluctant to enjoy it themselves, so they want to sell it, and when the time comes, they will send the money back to everyone to share together.
But if you go through the normal channel, such a valuable thing must be approved, and the cost of the approval will be about 100 gold coins, which is equivalent to a direct loss of half of the profit, and if you take the trail, you only need to pay the price of one gold coin to solve the problem.
And this kind of thing is very common in the Black Iron City, different from the heavily guarded decades ago, and now with the Black Iron City becoming stronger and stronger, it has been more than thirty years, the Black Iron City has not fought a large-scale war again, and the residents of the Black Iron City have not heard the sound of soldiers for forty years, and the garrison has long been slack.
Not to mention this colorful tiger, it is the pistol firecracker, as long as you stuff enough money, they can also open one eye, close one eye, and let you give things away, this point, Dati has been in the system, so he naturally understands clearly, so he is not worried at all, and Shu Han on the side is afraid to death.
I'm afraid that things are not as smooth as Dati said, this is a three-hundred-kilogram thing, and the possibility of being found is too great, but obviously, as Dati said, the level of security in Black Iron City is indeed not very good, and a gold coin can be regarded as a blatant violation of the law and crime, which can be regarded as an eye-opener for Shu Han.
Walking into the inner city, Shu Han only felt that everything in front of him was so weird, the reason why it was described as weird was because many of the buildings in the inner city were obviously remnants of the pastoral era, and even Shu Han could vaguely distinguish what he once looked like from his appearance, and the key thing was that it seemed that there were still people living inside.
However, these buildings have been greatly remodeled, there are steel plates everywhere, and the asphalt road on the ground has also turned into a dirt road, but unlike the outside world, when you enter through the city gate, you can immediately see rows of street lamps, and judging from the appearance of them being wiped clean, it is obvious that these lamps should be usable.
"Cyberpunk." Shu Han said to himself, everything in front of him, just like the world in the game, the most striking thing is a tall tower in the distance, about a hundred meters, standing there, people can see it at first glance, the left half of the entire tower seems to have collapsed, there is still a tree growing on it, the roots are stuck around the wall, and on the left half is the finished tower.
A street leads directly to the gate of the tower, for this tower Shuhan is no stranger, Hai'an CBD International Financial Building, the reason why you can recognize this building, is really because this building is too famous in Hai'an City, 370 meters high, is a landmark building in Hai'an City at that time, Shu Han also once bought a ticket to go up, standing on it, you can overlook the whole picture of Hai'an City, when the weather is good, you can even see the sea outside the Egret District.
And it is very characteristic in appearance, like algae in the sea, twisting and rotating upward, the streamlined design makes him have a completely different style from other buildings, very sci-fi, in Hai'an City, you can hardly find a second tall building like this, so Shu Han can recognize it at a glance.
It's just that now this building seems to have been cut by some force more than half of the height, the upper half has disappeared, and a series of attached high-rise buildings around it have also become twenty or thirty meters of small buildings, I don't know what happened at the beginning, at the same time, the original glass outside the high-rise building has disappeared, only an empty shelf remains, rust corrosion and long-term wind and rain, the whole high-rise building from a distance, brownish-yellow, with sparse cement buildings, giving people a feeling of desertion.
And in the Black Iron City, you can see such a scene everywhere, modern buildings have been baptized by time and time, into ancient buildings with vicissitudes, and the gravel paved roads on the ground are unimaginable, hundreds of years ago, this was once a glorious city that never sleeps.
"Cyberpunk? What is that? Dati asked.
"Nothing, what's that building?" Shu Han wanted to know what these buildings of the previous era were in the eyes of the people of this world.
"That's the Gao Ze Tower, the headquarters of Skywalker, the center of the entire Hai'an City." There was respect in Dati's words, Shu Han nodded, Gao Zeta, Gao Tian Zeyuan, is it really a bit of Darwinian evolution, the meaning of the survival of the strong, Shu Han laughed sarcastically, and turned to Dati and said, "Where are you going now?" Do you go to the black market to sell meat first, or do you want to go to the company with me? “
"I'm going to sell the meat first, and if I get caught by the gendarmerie, I'll have to pay for it again." Dati shook his head and said, Shu Han didn't stop him, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's act separately and meet in the company when the time comes." “
After that, the two acted separately, Shu Han relied on the map given to him by Bo Rilang, and walked towards the headquarters of Zhangjia's company, the core urban area of the entire Black Iron City is not large, the city wall is only three kilometers, and the whole city is square, that is, an area of about nine square kilometers, compared with the big cities of hundreds of square kilometers in later generations, the two legs are completely enough.
It's just that against the paper map, Shu Han is a little unfamiliar, no way, in modern times are all used to navigate, and now suddenly he has to distinguish between the southeast and northwest, it is really a little difficult, but fortunately, Shu Han has reviewed how to look at the map in modern times, especially the Black Iron City is a cube, the southeast and northwest are relatively easy to find, and he walked to the company along the signs on the street.
Along the way, Shu Han saw a lot of people, compared to the people outside the city, the citizens here should be more energetic, and at the same time they are wearing brand new clothes, some of them are also very fashionable, and another feature is that many of the people here do not have skin diseases, and some of them even have skin like snow, which looks like a baby's, and I don't know how to maintain it.
