Chapter 176: The Rich Zhong Chao, Cang Youqing's War with Qin Mengmeng!
Outside the King Kong Martial Arts Hall, someone wanted to see Zhong Chao.
Inside the courtyard, there were already people gathering with Zhong Chao.
When he came up, one of them laughed and said: "Hehe, Brother Zhong, you have now become the most legendary hero and chivalrous man in Jujiang City, and you are still the dream lover of thousands of beautiful girls, how about it, Gao is not happy?" β
Being able to talk and laugh with Zhong Chao in such a tone is naturally eccentric and clear.
This kind of out-of-the-box personality makes Zhong Chao a little difficult to deal with.
'My mouth is so good at saying, I must use it well in the future...... Syllable! β
After slapping himself and suppressing the growing anger in his heart, Zhong Chao said righteously:
"Boring...... Besides, it's not all good about my reputation. β
In this regard, Cang Youqing nodded:
"This is also true, the wealthy family of Jujiang City has been subdued by you, and they don't dare to say anything wild. But the wealthy clans in the outer state cities, when they heard that our Jujiang City was put in the champion position by a civilian child, they were all shouting, saying that the wealthy clan of Jujiang City was shameful and useless, and there were still people who wanted to challenge you. β
"Let them come here."
After responding fearlessly, Zhong Chao thought of something and asked:
"By the way, how are your negotiations with those wealthy businessmen, and how much money have you gotten."
It is the norm in this world for the army to be stationed and collect protection money, and not only will not make people look up to it, but will think that the army is weak and can be bullied, and the officers and men in the army will also be full of resentment.
Knowing this, Zhong Chao naturally went with the flow, and he didn't have the strength to dare to change the sun and the moon into a new sky now.
Of course, he didn't do nothing.
Unlike other garrison wealthy merchants, Zhong Chao specializes in accepting wealthy merchants, but it is a difficult small merchant and hawker who will let some go.
"It's just that the tax of wealthy businessmen is the most difficult to collect, and the income this time may be a little low."
Just when Zhong Chao was thinking like this, Cang Youqing reported a number that made Zhong Chao's mentality almost explode.
"90,000, after negotiating with the wealthy families in the outer city, we received a total of 90,000 taels of silver. In the future, we can also collect 60,000 taels every month. β
"However, you have to take out some of this and assign it to the general flag."
"In addition, the inner city has collected 180,000 taels, and there will be 120,000 taels of silver every month in the future, because the two of us are together, you don't have to take a third, you can take half."
βοΌοΌοΌβ
"One hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver, or every month? Is it really okay for us to take so much? β
Zhong Chao knew that being an official was very profitable, and in his previous life, there were rumors of three years of Qing Governor's Mansion and 100,000 snowflakes of silver.
That is, a magistrate who is not so ruthless also has an income of 30,000 taels of silver a year.
But it was 100,000 yuan in three years, but on his side, it was 120,000 yuan a month, and the gap was so big that Zhong Chao didn't dare to take it.
Even, he felt that this was a pit that Cang Youqing had buried for himself, and he was ready to pit himself to death.
It's just that Zhong Chao was surprised, but Cang Youqing was a little dissatisfied:
"Is one hundred or two hundred thousand silver a lot? You're the leader of the army that commands Jujiang City, and if it weren't for those bastards bullying us, we wouldn't have grown up, and we would have taken more. β
"It's really nothing, Lord Baihu, you can afford this money."
"Master Zhong, don't worry, it's okay to take this money."
The three of them were persuading, and even Xi Kang expressed his disdain for these silver tattoos, which made Zhong Chao a little incredible.
But soon, he thought that the economy at the bottom of this world was similar to the feudal society in the previous life, but there were spiritual objects at the top, which made the price of silver and silver completely different from the previous life.
For example, in the Xijia Restaurant, they have Guiyuan soup, lotus seed soup, and some other spiritual objects, each of which sells for a very high price. According to rough estimates, their monthly turnover is 60-800,000 taels of silver, and when the season is good, the turnover can even exceed one million taels of silver.
And the Xi family is only running a restaurant in Jujiang City.
In such an environment, receiving 120,000 taels of silver in a month is really nothing, as Cang Youqing said.
'Spiritual creatures, martial arts...... These things make the economic common sense of this life very different from that of the previous life, and with my only superficial knowledge of economics, I can't understand the logic in it. β
I don't understand, Zhong Chao simply doesn't think about it anymore, he only knows one thing, he is not short of money when he becomes a hundred households, or he is stationed in Jujiang City, and he has all the orders and armies of the inner and outer cities in his hands.
And there is a lot of money, so Zhong Chao has opened a big shopping mode.
Soul Elixir, buy!
Elixir of Life, Buy!
Medicinal diet, buy!
Maid's mansion, buy ...... That's it.
Zhong Chao, who suddenly became rich, turned on the mode of buying, buying, buying, and it was not unexpected by Xi Kang, Cang Youqing, and Qin Mengmeng.
It's just that they found that all the things Zhong Chao bought were cultivation materials, and there were no pleasure things, Qin Mengmeng and Xi Kang still admired Zhong Chao a lot.
As for Cang Youqing, she was a little happy and a little depressed.
But she covered it up very well and didn't let people see it.
On the other side, when Zhong Chao was buying things, he gradually discovered that one hundred or two hundred thousand taels of silver seemed like a lot, but when he really bought cultivation resources, it was actually just like that.
The price of a bottle of repaid jade liquid is 1500-3000 taels, and if you remove the one given to the general banner, Zhong Chao can only have 100,000 yuan at his disposal, and this money, even if he buys all the repaid jade liquid, that is, he can buy 50-60 bottles.
"For a martial artist, this money is really not much, and most of the money in it is contributed by the inner city."
Thinking of this, Zhong Chao was stunned.
"Xiaoqing, how did you get money from those wealthy people."
Zhong Chao did not forget that the reason why he gave up the inner city was because it was difficult to collect the money of the wealthy family, but now Cang Youqing easily collected the money, which surprised Zhong Chao.
"Are they so talkative?"
"How is it possible, I made a deal with them, and I collected the money."
"What deal?"
"Let them put their own men...... A hundred households can have more than a dozen general flags, a hundred small flags, I will clearly mark the price of those general flags and small flags, and whoever wants to recruit their own heirs into the inner city will pay. β

After listening to Cang Youqing's words, four words appeared in Zhong Chao's heart.
Sell the official beard!
This operation also made Zhong Chao's eyes widen:
"Is it okay for you to do that?"
"It's okay, the inner city is the lair of those wealthy families, whether there is an army or not, it is as safe as a mountain."
As soon as he said this, Zhong Chao also reacted, he really didn't need to worry about the wealthy people in the inner city.
If you don't say that something will happen to them, or if something really happens, you won't be sad, but you will laugh out loud.
"Since you have an idea, do it yourself, but be careful not to get caught."
"Hee-hee, is this caring for me?"
"Of course, I remember how good you are to me."
Zhong Chao's direct words made Cang Youqing stunned, but soon, she recovered.
"Don't worry, I'll be very careful, and besides, behind me is the Cang family, even if something happens, it will be a big thing and a small thing."
ββ¦β¦β
These words made Zhong Chao not know how to answer.
On the contrary, Cang Youqing thought of something, and asked Zhong Chao: "Brother Zhong, a few days ago, you entrusted most of the affairs of the Destiny Army to me and Xi Kang, are you going to continue your cultivation?" β
"Well, I'll go when the resources are available."
"Or go to the Sunfall Sea?"
"Hmm."
Zhong Chao knew very well that he could ascend to a high position without a background, and what he was fighting forβmartial arts.
Therefore, he has always regarded cultivation as the first, and the rest as the second.
For this reason, he even entrusted the training, rewards, and financial power of the army to Qin Mengmeng, Cang Youqing, and Xi Kang.
This is because he knows that as long as he is strong enough, neither these people who are attached to him nor the soldiers of the army will dare to betray him.
On the contrary, no matter how close his relationship with them is, once the martial arts stop, he will be overturned by the Hao clan.
Therefore, after sorting out some trivial matters, he immediately wanted to go to the Falling Yang Sea to continue his cultivation.
It's just that this idea was vetoed by Cang Youqing.
"Brother Zhong, I suggest you change places."
"Why?"
In response to this inquiry, Cang Youqing did not answer immediately, but looked at Qin Mengmeng, and the meaning revealed in his eyes was obvious.
But in the face of her direct gaze, Qin Mengmeng did not leave, but said coldly: "Hmph, I also know why I can't go to the Falling Yang Sea." β
After speaking, she said to Zhong Chao: "According to my father, the first black fog impact has not yet come. A few days ago, the reason why we had a black dog eating day here, and then there was a devil and a sneaky mess, was because there were cracks in the battlefield ruins nearby. β
"The Sunset Sea is one of the largest battlefields of the two realms in our world. If you go there to cultivate, you are likely to encounter unpredictable dangers. β
After hearing this, Zhong Chao's brows immediately furrowed.
The Falling Yang Sea is an excellent place for him to cultivate, and without it, his cultivation speed is much slower.
When Zhong Chao was distressed, Qin Mengmeng, who had explained everything, consciously won the victory, and glanced at Cang Youqing proudly.
This glance immediately made her furious.
"Hmph, do you only know how to point out the danger and how to solve Brother Zhong's problem?"
"Uh......"
Of course Qin Mengmeng didn't know, after all, the time she had been in contact with Zhong Chao was still short, and she didn't know what Zhong Chao needed at all.
And her silence made Cang Youqing proudly cross her waist and straighten herself - flat chest:
"Miss Ben knows. Moreover, Miss Ben not only knew where there was the most suitable place for Brother Zhong to cultivate, that place was also near Jujiang City, if he went there to cultivate, Brother Zhong would be able to maintain communication with Jujiang City every day. β
These words immediately made Zhong Chao's eyes light up:
"Is there such a place?"
"Of course, doesn't Brother Zhong believe Xiaoqing?"
"Of course I believe you, can you tell me where this place is?"
"Yes, but I guess this place is a secret for you and me...... If Brother Zhong is not at ease, he can tell Xi Kang and Jiang Liang the name of the place and let them go over, but he can only tell them, and he must not tell a certain woman. β
After speaking, she also looked at Xi Kang and Jiang Liang who were shrinking in the corner.
And for them, Cang Youqing didn't have such a good tone, and said arrogantly:
"You guys, don't tell me the secret of Brother Zhong."
This sentence made Xi Kang shrink even more, and he didn't dare to answer.
Cang Youqing they can't afford to mess with, Qin Mengmeng, they can't afford to mess with it either!
