Chapter One Hundred and Eight

There are three gates on one side of the city wall of the Shen Snake base.

The main city gate stands in the middle, with a width of nearly 100 meters, which can accommodate more than three giant chariots to pass side by side, and can pass thousands of troops and horses out of the city to defend against the enemy in a short time.

Unless it is the king of Chujiang who comes in person, or the national capital is ordered by the monarch to inspect the border passes, he can enter and exit from this gate, and he is only used for military purposes in peacetime.

On the left and right sides of the main door, there is a corner door.

It is said that the corner gate is actually huge, more than 30 meters through, 5 zhang high, no matter how big the car has run.

The Great Zhou Dynasty is respected on the left, so the corner gate on the left is dedicated to the passage of dignitaries and wealthy merchants.

The corner gate on the right is dedicated to peddlers' pawns, or even lower lowly people.

Zhang Jiao is barely a new celebrity in Luyang, but when he comes to Chujiang, he can only be regarded as a foreigner.

Therefore, they honestly lined up at the tail of the flow of people entering the city at the right corner gate, waiting for passage.

He knew that the slavery system had not yet been abolished in the state of Chu Jiang, so he was not surprised to see the poor worms in front of him who had a face and shaved their hair, only a handful of hair on the top of their heads, and were dressed in tatters, and were tied to their wrists with thick hemp rope and dressed in a string.

But there are also some people who look at Kong Wu's strength, sharp and bright eyes, extraordinary weapons, but whose clothes are more unbearable than slaves, and who are only wrapped in animal skins, but they feel very strange and can't guess the calendar.

If you don't understand, just ask.

Zhang Jiao looked left and right, and found that among the people waiting for customs clearance on the left, there was a middle-aged uncle with an honest and loyal expression, white and fat, and as stocky as dough, who looked very talkative.

So he leaned over, pointed at those people and asked with a smile: "Uncle, I am from Luyang, and I don't know the customs of Chujiang."

What do those skinned guys do over there?"

The middle-aged uncle's face changed, and he lowered his voice and said, "Don't mess around, be careful of causing trouble."

Those wild people are not easy to get along with, and if they are not careful, they will make trouble and beat people. ”

Wild people, officially stateless.

It usually refers to the people and their descendants who are weak in the motherland, destroyed by foreign races or conquered by other human countries, and do not want to become slaves and go into exile.

Or the unlucky people and their descendants whose parents are resident residents of the zero or negative zone, who were born and raised in the zero or negative zone since childhood, have never returned to the positive district for household registration, and eventually lost their nationality for various reasons.

200 years ago, there was a country in the Shennongjia area called 'Maned Horse', which is rumored to have been built by the people of the Western Regions who migrated to the Eastern Continent.

The country was founded for nearly a thousand years, but it was finally destroyed by a terrifying beast tide that experts called 'once in 5,000 years'.

It is said that after the beast plague, millions of remnants were left, but because the land was occupied by the Chu River, it was impossible to re-establish the country, and had to go into exile and become wild people.

Before Zhang Jiao came to the Shen Snake Base, he had studied the history of Chu Jiang's rule over Shennongjia and knew this allusion.

He nodded and said, "It turns out that they are maned horse immigrants."

If you look closely, it has a high nose, deep eyes, and brown skin, which is slightly different from our Da Zhou people. ”

The dough-like fat uncle, who seemed to be cautious, seemed to have a problem with being a good teacher, and when he heard Zhang Jiao's words, he couldn't help but interject: "But it doesn't have to be a mane horse."

Tianzhu, a big country in the east of Shennongjia, has five classes, and the lowest Shudras and untouchables can't live at all, and many of them sneak into Shennongjia and become wild people.

I'd rather feed the monsters than suffer at home, really, the harsh government is fiercer than the tiger.

But look at your appearance is not small, how can you call me uncle, I am not so old. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jiao touched the lush beard on his chin that had grown for more than 10 days, and said with a dry smile: "Isn't it strange that there are many people who are polite."

I am 21 years old.

Didn't ask?"

"In Xiaxia, Hou Min is a small businessman who travels in the zero area. Uncle Bai smiled and deliberately ignored Zhang Jiao's age, "Little brother, are you?"

"My name is Zhang Jiao," Zhang Jiao lowered his voice with a grin, and said proudly, "Is it an explorer and a pioneer by profession?"

This time I came to the Shen Snake Base to plan to enclose a piece of land and pioneer planting.

It started as a multinational company, and its name was bright.

The location has already been chosen, and the information bought with money looks barren and tight, but there is actually a water source underground.

Earn it if you take it, and you will definitely make a big deal!"

"Ahh Xiahou Min spit out a word meaningfully, and immediately classified Zhang Jiao in his heart as a child of a wealthy foreign family who is ignorant of the world, or a good fraudster in acting.

And the former can be equated with a sheep's chest, and a vote may be worth 3 or 5 years of trading.

Xiahou Min, who has been in business for many years and cannot be easily deceived, couldn't help but be moved, and deliberately showed a surprised and envious expression on his face: "Reclamation in the zero area often costs a huge amount of money, and Brother Zhang has such strong financial resources and ambitions at a young age.

It's really impressive. ”

"It's a little funny. Zhang Jiao smiled and said softly: "Actually, I am still a big star in Lu Yangguo, and I have never lined up in line to enter and exit the Zero District base.

But people, when you go out, you have to be low-key. ”

"Oh, yes, disrespectful, disrespectful. Seeing his exaggerated performance, Xiahou Min's impression of Zhang Jiao suddenly changed, and he felt that he should not be a brain-dead child from a foreign nouveau riche, or a novice liar who had just entered the industry with exaggerated acting skills.

At this moment, Zhang Jiao raised his eyebrows, as if he remembered something, and looked Xiahou Min up and down: "I am not familiar with the place of life in the Shen Snake Base, and I don't know what to do with the procedures for enclosing land in Chujiang Zero District."

Since Brother Xiahou is also a person in the business world, I don't know if I know the doorway?"

"Isn't that what happened? Xiahou Min secretly thought in his heart, and a strange smile appeared on his face, "I said that he was a businessman, but in fact, he did something similar to a broker."

I've been doing it for decades, so I naturally know a little bit about business. ”

"Since that's the case, then how about asking Brother Xiahou to help me get the line back," Zhang Jiao said in surprise: "Don't worry, I won't let you do it in vain."

The piece of land I want is said to be worth 20,000 gold dollars, and if you can get 20,000 gold yuan, I will give you the benefit of 1,000 gold yuan.

If it can be cheaper, the money saved will be divided into 3% for you.

If it's expensive, as long as it's not too out of line, it's nothing, and you can still be given a commission of 1,000 gold yuan, how about it?"

The rules of brokers are common practice to draw five for every thousand, and it has to go down when encountering big buying.

The exchange ratio of Lu Yang's gold yuan and Jiang Chu's highest denomination currency, 'wrong gold knife', is 1:1.9.

The transaction of 20,000 gold dollars is almost equivalent to 40,000 gold knives, although it is not an amazing big business in the zero area, but it is not worth mentioning, but it is not worth talking about.

Zhang Jiao actually gave a 10 times rake, which is not enough to describe the brain damage.

Xiahou Min immediately judged that he was a liar.

But people die for money, birds die for food, and merchants make profits until they die.

The remaining hope of one in 10,000 to meet a wealthy sand sculpture young man still made Xiahou Min reluctant to give up, and said with a dry smile: "Okay, I'll take this line for you." ”
