Chapter 66: Feeling Poor
"Get up first!"
After a long while, Lu Chen came back to his senses and said to the two girls who were kneeling on the ground.
As a modern person, Lu Chen was still very unaccustomed to two young girls kneeling in front of him suddenly.
"Yes, master."
The two girls answered in unison, and then stood up.
"Master, the slaves and maids are the servants of the twenty-three rooms of the land, and you can order the slaves and maids to do anything during your stay, master."
At this time, the girl on the left bowed slightly to Lu Chen, and whispered cautiously.
"Okay, show me the room first!"
Becoming a local custom, Lu Chen quickly adapted to it, and with two delicate-looking little girls calling themselves masters, Lu Chen felt very good.
So, the two maids respectfully led Lu Chen into the room and took a casual tour of it.
The room was not very big, but not small either.
The various decorations inside are a little simple in Lu Chen's opinion, just some screens, vases, shelves or something, although it looks like the materials are good, but Lu Chen doesn't know how to appreciate them.
After casually taking a look at the room, Lu Chen sat down at a table in the guest room.
"Tea, master!"
One of the maids hurriedly picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for Lu Chen, and then respectfully held it in front of Lu Chen with both hands.
Lu Chen took the teacup and took a sip and put it on the table.
"What's your name?"
Lu Chen looked at the two maids standing in front of him and asked.
"Slave Lan'er."
"Slave apricot."
The two maids said one after the other.
"Well, this name is indeed enough for a maid."
Lu Chen complained in his heart, and then said to the two: "Lan'er, Xing'er, I have something I want to ask you." ”
"Master, please speak!"
"That's right, I just came to Plains City, and I don't know much about everything here, can you tell me about the situation in Plains City."
Lu Chen organized his words for a moment, and then spoke.
"Good master."
"Let Lan'er introduce it to you, Lan'er grew up in Plains City since she was a child."
The two maids glanced at each other, and then called Lan'er to speak.
"Master, Plains City is a city with a history of 200, he ......"
In Lan'er's account, Lu Chen gradually learned about some of the situation in Plains City.
Plains City is a giant city that has been established for more than 200 years, and is a border city of the Zhao Kingdom, whose main role is to defend against the invasion of nomads in the eastern steppes.
The geographical location of Plains City is very good, it is surrounded by the Lost Forest to the south, and the Broken Soul Mountain Range is located in the north, and Plains City is in the middle of the two, firmly resisting the route of the nomads on the eastern grassland to attack the Zhao State.
From the day it was built, the nomads of the steppe attacked no less than twenty times, but never succeeded.
Due to the solidity of Plains City, this original military city has become more and more prosperous.
After more than 200 years of development, Plains City has a population of more than 2 million, and Plains City is facing the prairie in the east and the Lost Forest in the south.
This made some businessmen and warriors in Zhao State also continue to come here to collect various medicinal materials and hunt demon beasts.
Therefore, the commerce of Plains City is also very developed.
And within the Plains City, there are three huge forces.
The first of these is the Castle Lord's Mansion in Plains City.
The city lord of Pingyuan City is the uncle of the current Emperor Zhao State, Zhao Xin, and Zhao Xin has been the city lord of Pingyuan City for 30 years.
He is also a master in the late stage of the Huayuan Realm, coupled with the 200,000 defenders in charge, Zhao Xin in the Plains City can be said to be an existence like the Earth Emperor, and he belongs to a role that no one dares to provoke.
The Drunken Immortal Building where Lu Chen is now is an industry that belongs to the city lord.
The second is the four major families in the city, the four major families control eighty percent of the industry in the city, and there are also many martial arts masters in the family, and the ancestors of the four major families are also masters of the Huayuan realm.
The third one was a little unexpected for Lu Chen, it was actually the brothel Yanyu Pavilion that Li Qing told him.
According to what Lan'er said, although Yanyu Pavilion is a brothel, she is the property of a cultivation sect, Tianmei Sect.
Tianmei Sect is a women's cultivation sect, and the masters in the sect are like clouds. There are many masters in the Huayuan realm, and the sect master is even a super powerhouse in the Ning Dan realm.
Yanyu Pavilion has branches in every big city in Zhao Kingdom, and it can be said that this force is the most powerful of the three, but as long as you don't mess with them, you won't be fine, and they usually guard the Yanyu Pavilion's one-third of an acre and do business with peace of mind.
And in Lan'er's introduction, Lu Chen finally figured out some of the realms of cultivation in this world.
The martial arts cultivation in this world is divided into forging the body, gathering qi, refining qi, transforming yuan, and condensing pills, these realms.
According to what Lan'er said, there are more powerful realms above the Ning Dan realm, but that is not something that she can know as an ordinary person, all she knows is some common sense in this world.
As for the specific situation in each cultivation realm, Lan'er was not very clear.
"Do you know this thing?"
Lu Chen put his hand into his pocket and actually took a spirit stone from the system space.
"Master, this is Yuanshi."
This time it was Apricot who spoke.
"Do you know what it does?"
"Also, where can I get this Yuan Stone?"
When Lu Chen heard this, he hurriedly asked.
After all, this Yuan Stone can replenish the energy of his system, as long as there are enough Yuan Stones, he does not have to wait for the system to slowly recover his energy, and he can go to other worlds at any time.
So it's something very important for him.
"The Yuan Stone is something that can accelerate the cultivation of martial artists, as for how to obtain the Yuan Stone, the slave maid doesn't know."
Xing'er said cautiously, afraid that her answer would cause Lu Chen's dissatisfaction.
"Okay!"
Lu Chen nodded, they were just two ordinary maids, and he was already very satisfied with being able to get so much news at once.
Then Lu Chen asked the two maids to go about their own work, and he walked out of the room, planning to go to the dining place in front of him to have a meal and see what the dishes made of demon beast meat looked like.
After arriving at the dining place, Xiao Er immediately warmly welcomed Lu Chen and sat down at a table.
After inquiring about the price of the things here, Lu Chen once again felt his poverty.
A dish made from any demon beast meat costs at least ten gold coins, and the cheapest pot of wine costs ten gold coins.
Although Lu Chen didn't know much about the values of this world for the time being, a gold coin was estimated by Lu Chen to weigh at least twenty or thirty grams.
Ten gold coins are equivalent to hundreds of thousands on the Blue Star, and any dish costs hundreds of thousands, and this price still makes Lu Chen a little smacked.
He had never eaten anything so expensive in Bluestar.
In the end, Lu Chen could only order a dish of braised pork made from demon beast wild boar meat recommended by Xiao Er, as well as a pot of the cheapest vitality wine.
With these two things in mind, Lu Chen had only 5 gold coins and some silver and copper coins left on his body.
And one gold coin can be exchanged for a hundred silver coins, or ten thousand copper coins.
However, this thing, which cost twenty gold coins, did not disappoint Lu Chen.
The braised pork made by the demon beast and wild boar tastes not only chewy, but also fragrant, and most importantly, after eating it, Lu Chen feels warm and very comfortable.
The vitality wine is similar, after drinking it, it seems that there is a stream of air flowing in the body, and Lu Chen even feels that in the movement of this air flow, his physique has improved a little bit.
