On the vast Tianyan Continent, there is a big river from west to east, which is the Yanjiang River.

The Yanjiang River meanders through it, dividing the entire continent in two. Its tributaries spread across the north and south of the river and are regarded as the lifeblood of the mainland.

And in the middle reaches of the Yanjiang River, on top of the largest alluvial plain, there is a magnificent city. In the center, a towering castle rises from the ground, like a giant pillar of the sky, leading to the sky.

Whenever the thunderclouds were thick, lightning slashed fiercely at the top of the fort with the power of heaven and earth, but it never hurt it in the slightest.

Heaven is difficult, heaven forges.

This is the origin of the name of the Heavenly Forging Castle.

At first, there was only one castle standing on this plain. However, soon a large number of people migrated here to settle here, and the city's buildings gradually spread outward, and soon took shape.

As a result, the city was divided into an inner city and an outer city.

The lack of walls in the outer city heralded the infinite possibilities for its continued expansion. Since then, the new cities have changed from the old-fashioned design of high walls and moats to become more open, and at the same time incorporate more technical elements of Yanjia, which is called "new modern cities" by contemporary architects.

However, as the "originator" of the new modern city, Tianforan Fort still retains some elements of a "classical city". There is a long embankment along the Yanjiang River that surrounds the west and south of the city to prevent flooding.

Under the south embankment, it is known as the Tianduan Wharf with the largest freight throughput in the mainland. In the middle of it is the commercial district, which accounts for more than half of the city's area.

The inner city of Tiandun Castle, which has traditional classical beauty, refers to the castle area that is fenced off in the center of the city. Here, it is one of the world's Yandao giants, known as the north pole of the four poles of Yandao, where the single family is located.

Counting up, it has only been 20 years since the Shan family migrated here to build Tianforging Fort.

However, with the convenience of land and water transportation, this emerging city, which has almost no history to speak of, has completed several urban renovations and expansions under the governance of the castle owner Shan Tianduan, and has quickly become one of the most prosperous and lively commercial towns on the mainland.

Although Ning Le had already learned about the city from various intelligences, when the wide streets, the noisy market, and the towering castle not far away appeared in front of him, the heartfelt shock still could not be calmed down for a long time.

"No wonder Lao Mo suggested that the master should come to this Tianjian Castle at the first stop, and he didn't deceive me. ”

But......

"It's a little weird. Ning Le couldn't help frowning.

Although Yanshu is now popular, and Yanshi is not uncommon on the mainland, since entering the Tianforging Fort City, there are no less than sixty or seventy people who can determine the identity of Yanshi along the way.

The Heavenly Forging Fort is famous all over the world, mainly because of the Yandao giants who originated here, and secondly because of the merchants who gathered here.

Now there are so many Yanshi in the city, and the degree of gathering is so high. If it's the norm, why haven't you heard it mentioned before?

He thought about it, and inadvertently bumped into a person head-on.

"I'm sorry. Ning Le hurriedly looked up.

"I said you kid, what are you doing with your head buried!" On the opposite side was a thin middle-aged man, carrying a large leather bag, rubbing his forehead and grinning.

Ning Le knew that he was at a loss, and said shamefully: "Are you okay?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Ning Le, pouted and waved his hand, "That's it, it's not in the way." ”

Ning Le secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he didn't meet any difficult people. He nodded, apologized again, and prepared to leave.

"Eh, boy, stay here!" Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man stopped him again.

Ning Le turned his head and looked at the other party suspiciously.

The middle-aged man looked Ning Le up and down, and then said slowly, "It's the first time you've come to Heavenly Forging Castle, right?"

"Uh......" Ning Le nodded hesitantly.

"Yanshi?" the middle-aged man said again.

Ning Le Yiqi: "Uncle, you're not a Yanshi, how can you see my details?"

"Hey, is there anything in the Forging Castle that I don't know about Mr. Zhidao?" said the middle-aged man proudly.

Hmph, when they collided just now, there was a sound in this kid's baggage that only came out when the ink and stones collided. At this time, he appeared in the Heavenly Forging Forge with the ink stone, and it didn't look like he was doing business, so it could only be a Yanshi.

But looking at this dress, I'm afraid that it came out of which mountain, think of the poor bastard who came here to hit the luck.

"Then ......" Ning Le looked embarrassed, "What advice does the uncle have?"

"Just call me Mr. Zhidao. The middle-aged man took out a square card from his large leather bag and handed it to Ning Le.

Ning Le, who was confused, took the card and looked at it, and saw that it was just an ordinary wooden business card, with a few lines of small characters clearly engraved on it:

Zhidao Information Media Consulting Management Center, mainly engaged in information consulting, advertising operations, spreading rumors, derailment investigations, attending parent-teacher meetings, and ranking on behalf of a certain tour. The price is affordable, Tong Suo is not bullied, please consult the director of Bu Zhidao for details. Address......

The more this main business is talked, the more excessively it gets! In the end, there seems to be some strange content mixed in!

The most excessive thing is that this guy is actually surnamed Bu?

"What's wrong with the surname Bu? There are a lot of celebrities in our old Bu family!" Bu Zhidao protested, "My favorite beautiful writer is surnamed Bu." ”

Ning Le, who was full of black lines, handed back the business card: "Hello, uncle, goodbye, uncle." ”

"Eh, boy, don't go!" Bu Zhidao saw that Ning Le was leaving, and hurriedly grabbed him and said hurriedly, "You are also here to participate in the selection, right? I have first-hand information about the selection competition here, to help you pass the test and be invincible, it is definitely worth the money!"

"Selection?" Ning Le stared at the Buzhi knife and winked twice.

"That's right, selection!" Bu Zhidao looked at Ning Le with a sincere expression.

The air was suddenly silent.

Then the two were surprised at the same time:

"What selection?"

"You don't know?!"

-----

Half an hour later.

"That's probably the case. Bu Zhidao spread his hands.

"I see. ”

Ning Le nodded slowly: "That is to say, the single family of the Heavenly Forging Fort can't withstand the pressure of the rapid expansion of the other three major Yandao giants, and they also have to select outstanding and potential Yanshi with foreign surnames to join?" ”

"The kid understands pretty quickly. ”

Bu Zhidao smiled: "Because it's the first time, the Heavenly Forging Fort side has also made a bloody investment, and the conditions for the finally selected Yanshi are not too tempting! Not to mention the basic salary performance year-end benefits, there is also the identity of the guest secretary, the rising development space, and the endless resources of one of the four poles of the Yandao! How about it, is it tempting?"

Ning Le smiled slightly: "Heavenly Forging Fort is open to recruitment, and the world's Yanshi is eager to recruit it. And how to pass the selection has become the focus of everyone's attention. However, this is the first time that the eldest girl has been on the sedan chair, and there is no precedent for the direction and content of the assessment. So you so-called intelligence traffickers have a business to do, right?"

"If there is demand, there is a market! We are the first batch of old people who moved to Tianforging Fort to settle down, how many bricks are there under the east wall of the inner city, they are all clear, and they are naturally familiar in front of the single family. ”

Bu Zhidao looked proud: "So, this outsider has a black eye on the content of the assessment, but we have a lot of valuable information in our hands!

As he spoke, he took out a crudely made booklet from his big leather bag, held it in his hand and shook it at Ning Le.

Ning Le glanced at the crooked line of small words on the cover of the booklet: "Heavenly Forging Secret Scroll: Ten Years of Selection and Six Years of Simulation? Isn't this the first time a selection has been held?"

"Don't worry about the details. Although this is the first year of the official selection, the Danjia must have been brewing for more than ten years for this selection, right?"

Bu Zhidao raised the booklet in his hand: "All the information about the selection competition is here, twenty Tianyan coins, no two prices!"

Ning Le's face darkened: "Why don't you go and grab it?"

Twenty Tianyan coins are about the cost of an ordinary family of five for a month.

Of course, if you use it to buy Yanjia materials, Ning Le is confident that he will spend it in an instant.

However, now he is shy in his pocket, and he still points to the little money he has left to live!

Spend such a huge sum of money to buy a piece of information that I don't know if it's true or not? I'm sorry, you're not so stupid yet.

"That's not true, kid. Think about it, if you successfully pass the selection with this and become a guest of the single family of the Heavenly Forging Castle, will you still take it in your eyes with this mere twenty Heavenly Yan coins?"

Bu Zhidao patted Ning Le's shoulder: "This is precious first-hand information, from now on, you can be one step ahead of others, and you will succeed immediately! You can't buy twenty Tianyan coins, you can't buy them at a loss, you can't be fooled, and you can get free shipping-eh, don't be in a hurry to leave! In this way, I see that the two of us will fall in love, and I will give you a 20% discount...... Seventy-fifty percent off is good!"
