Volume 1 Chapter 381 The Place Where Lotus Sheng Goes

After enjoying a barely sumptuous breakfast, Ren Tianxiang and his party followed Liansheng to set off again and headed for Heart City, the capital of the Dragon King Empire.

The price of goods in Thousand Cave City is not high, and the breakfast for five people, plus the dry food that Ren Tianxiang ordered, is a total of seven copper coins, which is already very cheap. If they had asked for so many things in Star City, I'm afraid they would have to have a silver coin to say the least.

In fact, in the Dragon King Empire, because of tens of thousands of years of experience and vast fertile land, the agriculture and animal husbandry of the Dragon King Empire are very developed, and almost every big city is surrounded by land formed by agriculture and animal husbandry, which provides sufficient supply of agricultural and animal husbandry products for these big cities, and the prices of agricultural and animal husbandry products in the big cities of the Dragon King Empire are very low.

In the Star Empire, even if it has the advanced technology of agriculture and animal husbandry brought by the Dragon Society, there are only two or three provinces in the south that can be used as a grain production base. Although the Star Emperor Kingdom has a very large and complete teleportation array system, the prices of agricultural and animal husbandry products in the Star Emperor Kingdom have always been only high, especially in Star City, which needs supplies from various regions, and the prices are even higher than every.

It is also for this reason that there are also people in the grain business in the chamber of commerce in Mingde City, who buy the grain of the Dragon King Empire from Fengcheng at a very low price, and then transfer it to Mingde City or even Xirong Province, where Mingde City is located, and sell it at a good price, and they can make a lot of money casually.

Perhaps the advanced technology of the Dragon Society can help the Star Empire establish more production bases for agricultural and animal husbandry products, but it will take a lot of time, and the price of agricultural and animal husbandry products will take longer to come down.

Of course, regarding the price, Ren Tianxiang just sighed casually, these things should be the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion of the Star Emperor State, and they have no way to say anything. After settling the accounts for accommodation and breakfast at the front desk of the tavern, they quickly walked towards the south gate of Thousand Caves City.

The road on the main street of Thousand Caves is very wide, and although there are many pedestrians coming and going, it is not crowded at all, and there are even some small horse-drawn carriages carrying goods that can pass on both sides of the street. It's not like the streets of Maple City, where both sides are occupied by small stalls and vendors.

However, I heard Liansheng say that in fact, the streets of Thousand Caves City are usually like that, or that all the cities of the entire Dragon King Empire allow small stalls and vendors to set up stalls - this is also a unique habit in the cities of the Dragon King Empire, even if the empire has issued a decree, there is no way to completely prohibit it, so the emperor's council simply does not prohibit this matter, but only introduces laws to regulate it.

It's just that in order to welcome Princess Sophia, who passed through here yesterday and went to the north to take office, and her accompanying guards, the City Lord's Mansion of Thousand Cave City issued a one-week prohibition on occupying pedestrian areas on all streets of Thousand Cave City. And because it has been specially cleaned up, Ren Tianxiang and they can now see such a clean and tidy street.

"Speaking of which, senior, I don't quite understand one thing. Ren Tianxiang asked after listening to Liansheng's explanation.

"What's not so clear?" Lian Sheng had a smile on his face, not at all bored by Ren Tianxiang's too many questions, but always maintained a happy junior.

"In order to welcome a princess, Thousand Caves City has specially renovated its streets...... No matter how you look at it, it's a thorough image project, right? Thousand Caves City is still an important city in the Dragon King Empire, and it is not allowed to open for a week, and those hawkers have no complaints?"

"Image engineering? Heh, you use this word cleverly, this is indeed image engineering. Lian Sheng smiled and explained, "In the Dragon King Empire, there is a hierarchy for everything, even in a big city like Thousand Cave City, there are not just ordinary citizens, there are still rich and poor in Thousand Cave City.

Because of the control of the City Lord's Mansion, the land price in Thousand Caves City is very low, and if ordinary people want to rent a shop, it is actually very easy and does not cost much.

But if you can't even afford to rent a shop, you can only make ends meet by setting up a street stall and buying odds and ends. Although this kind of behavior is not explicitly prohibited by the laws of the Empire, they are detrimental to the city's appearance after all, and there is no way to do it. And the image project you mentioned is actually not too excessive, it is better to be closed for a week than to be completely banned because the hustle and bustle on the streets annoys His Highness or His Majesty.

Alive...... It's not easy, the City Lord's Mansion will definitely not cut off these people's back roads, so they will turn a blind eye to these things on the street, and only when it comes to important moments will they be rectified, and the people in the city are used to it. As for what you call image engineering...... The image is the image, and the pressure on the relief center can be reduced.

Moreover, I am afraid that several Majesties also think so, which is why there has been no law on this aspect. The empire can't make all these people rich in a short period of time, and it can't cut off these people's way of life and let them fend for themselves, right?"

"Definitely. Ren Tianxiang nodded thoughtfully. It reminded him of medieval Europe that he had seen in historical documents, and that it was already very good compared to the European cities of that time.

Soon, they followed the street to the south gate of the Thousand Caves, and then as expected, they were stopped by the guards.

The guards demanded that they identify themselves immediately and pull out their passes.

Obviously anticipating this, Hasumi approached the guard. He lifted his hood halfway, making sure only the guard could see his face.

Liansheng is very famous in the entire Dragon King Empire, let alone in this Thousand Cave City, which originated from the Great Dezong. The first time he saw Liansheng, the guard stood up straight in surprise, folded his hands, made the special etiquette of the Great Virtue Sect, and said, "Master Liansheng!"

Liansheng nodded, slowly lowered his hood, and hid it again. Then, he waved his hand at the guard and said, "Don't make a noise, it's easy to cause a commotion here, and you will have to suffer a little." The old man went to face the saint, and by the way, he took a few juniors to the heart city to see the world...... Can we get there?"

"Of course, Master, please. The guards immediately turned sideways and gave way out of the city, without checking Ren Tianxiang and his party too much.

In this Thousand Caves City, Liansheng is a universal pass, but no soldier dares to check him. Moreover, these ordinary soldiers did not dare to doubt Liansheng's loyalty to the Dragon King Empire, let alone guess that the true identities of the four men and women who followed him were actually humans from the Star Emperor Kingdom.

"By the way, the old man sees that you are much stricter here than before, I wonder what happened?"

"Ah, that's right. Yesterday, Her Royal Highness Princess Sophia passed through the city, saying that she had noticed that there were spies from the Star Emperor Kingdom in the city, and hoped that our Thousand Caves City defense would take a good look. Hearing Liansheng's inquiry, the guard did not doubt that he was there, and replied honestly.

"Spy, can the spy still get here?" Hasushi pretended to be very surprised, and his voice raised slightly, "What about Maple City?

Hearing Liansheng ask about Fengcheng, Fengcheng smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know, master, I'm just a gatekeeper ......"

"Okay, thank you. Then we'll take our leave. Liansheng folded his hands and bowed slightly to the guards, and then beckoned Ren Tianxiang and said, "Let's go, we have to hurry." ”

In this way, several people smoothly mixed out of the Thousand Cave City very easily, and then Lian Sheng led them towards the southeast of the Thousand Cave City.

The horses they got up yesterday were all placed at the north gate of the Thousand Caves City, and Mr. Shiyi informed them that these horses were sent to the south gate by the people of the horse hall at night last night. Originally, Mr. Shiyi also had a horse, but when he left, he just gave one to Liansheng.

After leaving the horse hall, looking at the Thousand Cave City that was gradually moving away, Ren Tianxiang came to Liansheng's side and asked in a low voice, "Master Liansheng, what the guard said just now......

"Well, they should have been exposed. But it doesn't matter, they should have already arrived in Heart City by now, and Princess Sophia can't find them, at most, they can only temporarily restrain their actions in the name of investigation. As for you, haven't you already come out? ”

Liansheng's face did not have the slightest worry about Shi Yi and Mi Diewei, it did look like what he said, as long as Princess Sophia didn't just catch Mr. Shi Yi and them, then Mi Diewei would not have any problems. It's just that if Mi Diewei is supervised, they will only have to rely on Liansheng alone.

"That's the case, then I'll be relieved, thank you, master. By the way, I heard the master just say, you want to go to face the saint?"

"Yes, I can't say anything about going to Heart City without meeting His Majesty Odins. I was originally going to face the saint, and it happened that something happened in the Thousand Caves Temple this year, so I just went to report to him. ”

"Master, where are you talking about taking us there? I'll see if I've been. ”

"You probably haven't been. Liansheng shook his head, "That place is not very famous, and it is not a scenic spot, but it just happens to have such a location." This place was discovered by Lao Qu hundreds of years ago when he led a few disciples around the world, and it should be that only our disciples of the Great Virtue Sect know about this place. ”

"Is there anything magical about this place?"

"No, it's just a hillside. Liansheng laughed, "Okay, when you get to the place, you will naturally know." We'll have to hurry over, it's late, but we'll have to wait until tomorrow. ”

"Yes, let's go quickly. ”
