Chapter 134: Chaos Begins
In the inn, after hearing the movement from time to time below, Wang Lin laughed.
Bai Xiaojun on the side sat on the bed a little bored, looking at the group of people who were almost constantly fighting outside the window: "I didn't expect so many people to really be fooled." ”
Wang Lin smiled and immediately said: "This plan actually has a lot of loopholes, but in this case, many people will do it even if they have doubts. ”
Bai Xiaojun suddenly became interested, and immediately asked, "Why is this?" ”
"In terms of the current situation in the entire Xiyue County City, it can probably be divided into two types of people. The first type of people are the people inside Xiyue County, that is, the local residents here. The second group of people are those who come here to participate in the Enlightenment Monument like us, right? ”
"First of all, let's talk about those of us who participated in the Enlightenment Monument, which one of us was not able to get one or two only places in our own county town by chance? Originally, in the outer continent, due to economic problems, the number of Enlightenment Monuments that could be obtained was limited, so everyone was even more thirsty for resources that could improve their cultivation. Wang Lin said.
Bai Xiaojun suddenly asked: "Speaking of which, in fact, I have always been very strange, if the Jinyang Dynasty hopes that the counties of the outer continent can protect the border areas, it should let more masters be born." But in this situation, the resources that can be obtained by the outer continent area to improve their cultivation are relatively small, is this unreasonable? ”
Wang Lin shook his head: "Xiaojun, for the emperor of a dynasty, the border area is important, but this importance is twofold. First of all, he must have the ability to defend against the Celestial Star Dynasty and the Moon Worship Dynasty. However, it can only be resisted. In other words, relying on their own soldiers and horses in these border areas, they can delay their opponents for a short time. It is enough to have such troops. So now there are not many masters in the border areas, and this is basically the reason for this. It was the dynasty that deliberately adjusted. After all, the city lords of the outer continent regions basically have a lot of power, and they still have military power in their hands. What do you think would happen if the number of talented people around them increased? Therefore, for the border areas, it is not important that the masters are masters, the important thing is that their base forces are strong enough, and the ability of the city lord is strong enough. Therefore, even if they were supported by the economy of the interior, they would not be able to achieve full freedom in terms of economy and military strength. Otherwise, how can the dynasty rest assured? ”
Bai Xiaojun's eyes widened suddenly, if Wang Lin hadn't explained this layer, he really didn't expect this to happen.
Wang Lin smiled and immediately said: "Therefore, the closer people are to the border area, because they know that it is not easy to climb up, so every time, whenever there is a little opportunity, they will find a way to seize it." This is also why after the appearance of a ruin, the entire Donglei County is eager to take action. Therefore, when they see that there is indeed an auspicious treasure in the county, do you think that these people who are also fighting with real swords and guns can think in peace? No, they'd rather be mistaken than let go! So, they'll be the first to get the news and get into the action! ”
As he spoke, Wang Lin pointed to another group of people outside the window: "Besides, in the county town, this Xiyue county town likes extravagance and a comfortable life, so we can see that even if it is a top family, except for the Situ family, there is basically no family that has the ability to kill and decide." Most people are more like embroidered pillows, maybe the realm cultivation is good, but the combat experience is too insufficient. ”
Bai Xiaojun nodded: "I agree with this." Their spirit is far inferior to that of Donglei County. I estimate that among the same realm of cultivation, there should not be many people in Xiyue County who can beat outsiders. ”
"That's right, this is also the problem of the people in Xiyue County, because they are too comfortable, they no longer have blood in their bones. There's a word to describe their state, it's called a cadaveric vegetarian meal. Because generally speaking, the top families in a county town often have a leading role. They should bring the whole county in spirit. For example, in Donglei County, although the seven major families are not in harmony with each other, everyone knows that they have to face other countries, so in terms of external affairs, everyone is very clear. But what about the three major families here? In the end, the Mingyue family is just a puppet, and they have no actual power at all. ”
"The so-called domineering and power they show are actually given to them by the city lord. As long as this city lord doesn't want to cultivate them, the Mingyue family will be able to fall apart overnight. Therefore, such a family will not be able to win the hearts of the people in the entire Xiyue County, and it will not play a good role. ”
"What about the Shangguan family? In essence, it is still necessary to take care of the state of survival first. Because they are more ruthlessly oppressed by the Mingyue family and the Situ family on a daily basis, but the location and scale are in that place. ”
"As for the Situ family, although it sounds like there are a lot of capable people in their family. But you can also see that the people of their family have basically gone to the border area, why? It's not because they also think that there is probably nothing to be done in Xiyue County. Therefore, the Situ family looks majestic and has a good reputation, but in fact, it is just Mingzhe and the like. ”
Wang Lin took a sip of water and continued: "The three major families that are the leaders are in this state, what is the state of the small families below? Therefore, while everyone has become decadent, they are also very yearning for power and more wealth. That is, they want more, but they are not willing to give more. ”
"This is a kind of greed and demand in disguise. Therefore, when they saw the auspicious treasures, maybe the Situ family could barely maintain a little demeanor, but the Mingyue family would not be like this. In the final analysis, this seemingly behemoth-looking family has been forcibly promoted to this level. What a big family with a real background should do and what should not be done, they don't have a number at all. So, that's the worst of the starts. ”
Bai Xiaojun said thoughtfully: "Do everything? ”
"That's right. Unscrupulous means, just to get more benefits. Wang Lin said slowly: "Because of this, this kind of dissatisfaction will accumulate more and more. Of course, this is only from the simple point of view. ”
"And if you refine it, then in the entire Xiyue County, there are many problems involved. First of all, there is the Hell Building Division. Don't you think it's strange? When we went to the Hell Tower today, what was the situation inside the Hell Tower? Wang Lin asked.
Bai Xiaojun said thoughtfully: "It seems to ...... Somewhat deserted? It stands to reason that in such a wealthy place, the daily trading volume should be very impressive. But the liveliness of it is not as good as that of Donglei County. ”
"Yes, that's the problem. As the largest commercial institution of the Jinyang Dynasty, Hell Tower can still have such a momentum in Donglei County, why can't it be in Xiyue County? Because their business is not good? No. It's because more resources are no longer in the hands of the Hell Tower. ”
"In fact, the fact that the Mingyue family is too prominent means that there is too much decadent culture in Xiyue County, so the wealth here is basically in the hands of only a few people. For example, the city lord, such as the Mingyue family. And the Hell Tower is a chamber of commerce that needs to trade constantly, but if most of the money is in the hands of these people, even if there is an auction in the Hell Tower, it will not be able to sell for a high price. ”
"Therefore, standing in terms of the many forces inside Xiyue County, Hell Tower also very much hopes that someone can break the situation. This is also why, when we meet with the Hell House Master here and tell us the plan, the Hell House Master can agree without hesitation. Because in his opinion, this is the best time to break the game! You know, when these resources and lifelines are in the hands of a very small number of people, the best way is to turn everything upside down and start over. ”
So, the Hell Tower began to cooperate. Speaking of the Situ family, maybe at the beginning, the Situ family still had the same attitude, that is, they wanted to protect themselves, but sometimes, since they were already in the quagmire, it was not so easy to protect themselves. So you can also see that at the beginning, the Situ family actually wanted to get rid of this situation, but when that legendary exercise appeared, even they couldn't help it. ”
