Chapter 1127: Righteousness and Courage
"Does it include accommodation?" Gu Tian felt a little uncomfortable and hurriedly asked.
"Yes, of course. The clerk said, "I don't believe you go to any hotel to try to stay in the hotel, and you must refuse for various reasons." But if you try it again in the evening, there won't be so much to do. ”
"If it's a distribution system, where does the prosperity come from?" asked Gavin Muki immediately. Gu Tiancheng and the others were all shocked, and they all realized this problem: since they were all distributed, there was no buying and selling relationship. It can even be said that the money is useless, where can the prosperity come from? The real prosperity should be the material coordination department of the Iron Wall Fort.
The clerk smiled: "It seems that you are really children, and you haven't walked around the society." Who holds the power of distribution, and who doesn't want to share more for himself and others for less? Not only that, but his own people should take as much as they can, and the excess can be taken out and sold on the black market.
Moreover, those who have access will also try to open up the joints, find those who have the power to distribute, exchange interests, so as to distribute most of the materials, and then take them out and sell them at a high price.
I won't hide it from you, the storefronts here are all related to the black market! Since they are black markets, they just can't see the light. Although everyone knows it, it still has to be done in the dark, and you have to respect the laws and regulations on the surface.
Not to mention others, our small shop specializes in all kinds of cloth business, and it is impossible to buy goods from other places. Not to mention that this is a battlefield, the road is extremely dangerous, and even if we get the goods, we will transport them, and we will be detained when we cross the city gate.
Therefore, our supply can only come from above. Our shopkeeper gave those people seventy percent of the shares, and he only took thirty percent, so that he was able to open a store here to ensure the supply of goods.
Of course, the prices here are also more expensive than other places, starting at 10 times the price, and 100 times the price is also common. I am not afraid that no one will buy it, and most people will not be able to allocate anything at all, so they can only buy it on the black market. ”
"It's so expensive, where did those people get the money to buy it?" asked Sima Xin in surprise.
The clerk said, "Of course you have to find a way to survive." Working for the top and guarding the city as a soldier is their only way out. As long as you work, you can at least receive food every day, and you can also receive some spices every month, such as sugar, vinegar, tea, white cloth and other materials.
The Iron Wall Fort does not support idlers, but works for a day and eats for a day. If you don't work for a day, you can only starve to death. ”
"Then you make money, but you can't spend it, what is the use of making money?" asked Gu Tiancheng, he had to figure out whether the money he was carrying was good here. This is related to the question of whether their trip to the Iron Wall Fortress can continue.
"Of course, money is a good thing, although the Iron Wall Fort can't be used, but other places recognize it. The clerk said, "What's the use of mixing well in the Iron Wall Castle? The bustling world outside is less than half a point, and you can't even see a beautiful woman." ”
As he spoke, the clerk glanced at Sima Xin and them a few times, and nodded, "You female companions are beautiful, I can remind you, don't go out casually at night, otherwise, you will be robbed by those dignitaries, and you won't have a place to cry." ”
Gu Tiancheng nodded hurriedly, and in order to thank him for his kindness, Gu Tiancheng handed over a string of copper coins, asked some other questions, and then left there.
"What should I do?" Coming to a no-man's land, Gu Tiancheng asked them and asked for their opinions.
As a result, before they could say a few words, they saw a group of patrols approaching, and it was too late to hide, for as soon as they saw them, they fanned them out.
"Sneaky in the middle of the day, hiding in the shadows, either traitors or thieves! Be honest, come with us!"
Gu Tiancheng knew that if he really went with them, he couldn't eat and walk.
Gu Tiancheng nodded at Leng Fei, "I'll leave it to you here." Keep your hands and feet clean, and don't let people follow. ”
After speaking, Gu Tiancheng turned around and left, and those patrolmen wanted to step forward to stop them, but they were waved by Leng Fei, and a cluster of ice spikes was launched, and suddenly the patrol turned into icemen. There was nothing unusual on the outside, and he was still standing there, and from a distance, it looked like a bunch of people were resting there.
When Leng Fei caught up with the large army, Gu Tiancheng asked, "Just put it there, will someone find out that someone has sneaked in?"
Leng Fei stretched out his hand, "Don't forget, I also absorbed some of the Tianyi dust, and it won't be long before those people disappear permanently, as if they never appeared." By the time they come to their senses, we'll probably be out of town already. ”
Ari Hill frowned, "In broad daylight, there is no one on the street. We people are really too conspicuous. You have to hide it and mix it up until night. ”
Yu Xiaoyao smiled: "That's not too sloppy! If you want me to say, during the day, let's go directly to the Longtan Tiger's Den and enter the central hub of Tiebi Fort for a walk." Maybe there's something to be gained. ”
But no one else agrees with this proposal, in the middle of the day, everyone is at the post, and it is more appropriate to expose the whereabouts of one carelessly, or to go in at night.
But when they hid behind the dragon whisker for the whole day, they all felt aggrieved and panicked, so after discussion, everyone decided to leave this prosperous realm for a while and go to a remote place.
Knowing that there were many patrols in the city, everyone was prepared, and Gu Tiancheng even released his divine sense to find out the movements of the patrols in advance, so as not to encounter the patrols again.
Walking a few streets, Gu Tiancheng found through his divine sense that several ruffian soldiers were surrounding a ragged little girl not far away.
Those ruffian soldiers spotted them as soon as they turned around in Gu Tiancheng, and they straightened up one by one, glaring at them fiercely, "What are you doing?"
This time, it was Ari Hill who came forward and negotiated with them, "May I ask what mistake this little girl has made, and you will not let her go? She is still so young, even if there are some small mistakes, it is not difficult to raise your noble hand and let her go, right?"
The ruffian soldier said viciously: "Selling official salt without permission is a great crime of stealing the family and exterminating the clan! We will not investigate her clansmen, but only punish herself, which is already an extrajudicial mercy." ”
"But one cannot do without salt," said Ari Hill, "for without salt one would die." Your government does not distribute official salt to the poor, and the poor can only figure out their own way. It's about survival. You should think about how to improve the distribution system, instead of dealing with the poor and denying them a way out. ”
The ruffians showed their weapons at once, "Where did you come from, bastard, you dare to teach Lao Tzu a lesson! ”
