Grabbing May's little tail, the Shimen caravan stepped into the territory of the Bega Kingdom.

The sky is crisp and the fields around you are endless. The crops are green, and the farmers are bent over to weed.

He Lingchuan was looking at the crops.

It's not rice, it's not wheat, it's not even tea. "What is planted in this field?"

It's hard to say that he doesn't divide the grains, when he helped his father find out the county towns around Dunyu, but he was running around the fields, and he could see it.

But he really had never seen this kind of plant, and the scale was at least dozens of hectares, which was very spectacular. They walked for more than an hour and did not see a second crop.

Shi Er's master was beside him: "Tobacco leaves."

"Huh? This is tobacco leaves? This answer surprised He Lingchuan, "The land is so flat, I thought they would grow crops."

"This kind of red soil, crops don't grow well. However, this large area of land on the border, whether good or bad, is grown with tobacco leaves." Shi Congshan said with a smile, "Almost every Demon King's feudal country grows tobacco leaves, which are much more expensive than food."

"And do they still grow food?"

"Seed, of course. The territory of the demon kingdom is so vast, and there are countless fertile fields, are you still afraid that the food they grow will not be enough to eat?" Shi Congshan smiled, "Don't worry about them."

He Lingchuan looked at the tobacco fields around him, and suddenly remembered that before he entered Xiazhou, He Chunhua gave chewing tobacco to his subordinates.

Exquisite, tasty, compulsory import.

"Fu Guo wants to buy this thing, right?" He remembered the faint helplessness on He Chunhua's face, the Kite Kingdom and the Bejia Kingdom had signed an agreement, and it would not work if they didn't buy it.

"Of course." Shi Congshan said, "But the people of Fuguo originally like to chew tobacco. There is no need for apportionment, and all chambers of commerce are rushing to do this business. He gestured to the caravan behind, "We do it too."

One of the important livelihoods of the Shimen Chamber of Commerce is to provide "cage beads" for the green jade bamboo in the southern border of Baoshu, that is, the round ball that is plugged on the bamboo tube.

Under his explanation, He Lingchuan knew that it was also chewing tobacco, and the quality and packaging of the domestic output of each demon king were different. The chewing tobacco in the south of the treasure tree kingdom should be sealed with cloud fragrant wood, which can not only ensure that the smoke will not leak out, but also has a special aroma in addition to moisture-proof, which has been brewed in the bamboo tube for a long time, and will add new flavors to the chewing tobacco.

Over time, this has also become a very important feature.

However, the distribution of Yunxiang wood in Baijia is very small, but it is common in Fuguo, so the latter opened up the Yunxiang Wood Forest Farm to provide processed Yunxiang wood beads, that is, "cage beads" as accessories for the southern border of Baoshu.

They really want to name it "Dragon Ball", but they want to avoid it.

The Shi brothers worked hard for many years before spending a lot of money to contract two forest farms, carefully maintained, felled, and processed, and supplied Baoshu to the south three times a year.

Don't underestimate these inconspicuous wooden beads, they don't know how many chambers of commerce in Fuguo have supported.

This is just an industry under the hands of a demon king in the Bega Kingdom, and it is not even a pillar.

Along the way, the Shimen Chamber of Commerce crossed the border along the periphery of the Demon Nest Swamp and walked into the territory of the Treasure Tree King, one of the Thirteen Demon Kings——— that is, the Treasure Tree Country. With the care of the Chamber of Commerce, He Lingchuan cleared customs smoothly without encountering any obstacles.

In fact, the checkpoint is very relaxed, and the customs brokers sitting there are a few ape demons, not as tall as people, and their mouths are a little white, and they are yawning all the time, obviously old. After collecting the toll tax, they did not look closely at the people and goods, and stamped them and let them go.

After passing the customs, He Lingchuan asked Shi Congshan, "Even the border is so perfunctory?"

The border inspection of the Kite Country is extremely strict, especially if Brother Kong Fang is not sacrificed, I don't know how much trouble I have to suffer.

"To clear customs, you have to pay attention to efficiency." Shi pointed back from the mountain, "Do you see how many teams there are here, can they afford to wear them?" Besides, the Baijia National Road has less taxes, so why is it necessary to card people? 「

In the past, on Hongya Road, He Chunhua was the one who bought the road money, but he had an official identity. Therefore, He Lingchuan knows too well that the toll tax on Hongya Road and Blackwater City is very high, and the business travelers who enter the country are always squeaky and screaming, such as Liu Baobao's family, they always find ways to leak it. Now he asked, Baoshu

The kingdom only charges one-fifth of the road money!

Shi Er smiled again: "Although the road tax is small, some checkpoints will set up a name to collect taxes, and the collection is much higher than the original road tax. After the current Taifu came to power, he cracked down and arrested tens of thousands of people to prison, but now it is much clearer."

It is no wonder that this trade road is bustling, and it is more lively than the main road outside Shihuan City.

He Lingchuan even noticed that the road behind the gate was the smoothest and widest official road he had ever seen, which could accommodate seven carriages side by side.

Although this wilderness is flat and the roads can be repaired at will, it does not take so much effort in most countries.

After walking for another two hours, the outline of the town appeared in front of me, and the roadside was no longer a tobacco field, and finally there were some normal crops.

"Huh, youkai?"

He Lingchuan saw at a glance that the ploughing cattle in the field were different, not only with two tails, but also extremely strong, two laps larger than ordinary buffaloes, weighing at least five or six thousand catties, looking like a low house that could move.

Humans stood next to them, looking very small.

He Lingchuan hunted this thing in the Chipa Plateau, and as long as it launched a madness, the whole village could be demolished for you. In the past two months, the guards have often encountered these savage bull demons.

But in front of them, these bull demons are actually plowing the fields honestly.

Of course, they are equipped with large ploughs, each with four ploughshares. The cow walks in front, and two or three people support it in the back, and in the end it will automatically turn around, and the efficiency of turning the ground is high.

Judging by their skillful movements and tacit cooperation, these bull demons should have been doing farm work for a long time.

Seeing that he couldn't take his eyes off it, Shi Congshan smiled and said, "The first time people come to the Demon Kingdom, it's all your expression."

He Lingchuan retracted his gaze: "It's me who is lonely and unheard."

His medicine ape can refine the pill, the octopus of the Panlong City Promotion Department can probe people's meridians, and the ape demon sitting in the checkpoint can declare customs, so it is not strange that the monster does things.

There was still an hour left before sunset at most, and the caravan decided to settle in the town and continue tomorrow morning.

He Lingchuan felt fresh and looked left and right. However, this town is no different from the country in terms of scale, and it is also dominated by human residents, with more than 300 local residents settled, including more than 70 monster residents.

In addition, there are more than 400 foreign merchants.

It's not far from the border, and it's clear that the town is used to coming and going, with plenty of restaurants, blacksmiths, inns and hostels.

It seems that there is still a market today.

They are already familiar with this road, and after Shi Er arranges all the chores, he will invite He Lingchuan to drink.

As soon as the words ended, there was the sound of a gong in the center of the town, and someone shouted, "The execution at the street entrance begins!"

Shi Er's master sighed: "It's such a coincidence, and today you actually caught up with the execution of a death row prisoner? I've walked this road more than 30 times, and I've only encountered it twice, including today."

He Lingchuan shook his head: "What kind of good thing is this?"

As soon as he finished saying this, a little girl of six or seven years old ran by him, her little face was flushed, beautiful and cute.

She giggled as she pulled her mother forward, "Quick, quick, we're going to get to the front this time!"

"Slow down......," the mother staggered.

The daughter complained to her: "Last time, Ah Dong was at the forefront, and he turned around and told us that blood was splashed on his face.

He Lingchuan looked at the townspeople gathered around him, all of them laughed and laughed, and some of the scenes chatted about homely things.

It's like a festival.

He looked at the execution table in front of him, and it was different from the others.

In other places, prisoners were executed by building a high platform with wood, and then the prisoners were taken up to hang or beheaded.

There is a huge dirt pit at the entrance of the town, which is about half a foot lower than the ground, and I don't know if it was originally a fish pond, and the bottom is stained.

He knew at a glance that these were dried bloodstains.

Now that a lot of people have gathered on the edge of the pit, it is no wonder that the little girl said that she would not grab the front row to see clearly, it turned out that this execution had to be looked down.

At this time, the servant also came out with two prisoners with shackles on their hands and feet, and the prisoner was sentenced to "devouring the punishment".

He Lingchuan heard it as "stoning punishment" and thought it was stoned to death, after all, the torture table was sunken, which was convenient for throwing heavy objects. Stoning is also a very old punishment.

When the two prisoners heard this, they trembled like chaff, and their faces turned pale.

One of them was standing wet, and the audience pointed at him and shouted, "Pee!"

At this time, someone outside shouted, "The executioner is here, everyone let go!"

The crowd of onlookers brushed to make way for a passage, not daring to delay at all.

Only two terrifying roars were heard, and two huge shadows passed through the crowd and walked in as if no one was around.

It was a two-headed giant tiger-like creature that resembled a tiger, but with longer and thicker forearms, slightly shorter hind limbs, and a four-foot-high body at the shoulders, with a more stout body than a normal tiger, with stripes only on its back.

The claws on the ground alone are three times the size of an adult man's palm.

He Lingchuan had never seen this kind of monster beast in the country of kites, but he seemed to have seen the drawing in some book and knew that this fang was called "Simulated Tiger", and he liked to hunt rhinos, elephants and other giant beasts.

However, they don't seem to refuse human flesh, just look at their eyes staring at the prisoners, which is really called tiger staring.

He Lingchuan finally understood that this "devouring punishment" was the "devouring" of devouring bites.

The tiger licked his lips, and one of the prisoners immediately collapsed to the ground.

The officer pulled him and found him unconscious.

Although the other prisoner was also trembling, he took advantage of the time when the servant bowed his head, gritted his teeth ruthlessly, and hit the pillar with a "bang".

The sound is loud.

He Lingchuan heard the sound of "click", and he could judge from experience that this person's brain was cracked. Seeing him fall down as soon as he hit him, blood quickly stained the ground red.

The officer hurriedly bent down to probe his neck, and after a while he said to the prisoner, "Dead."

The surrounding townspeople were booed.

If there is one less living person, the excitement of this show will be greatly reduced.
