Chapter 214: The Emerald Capital
Ten days later, the Emerald Capital.
The capital of jade, speaking of the capital of jade, can be regarded as a long history, the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce, known as the first chamber of commerce in the Eastern Continent, was founded here thousands of years ago, when the first generation of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce Duan Ganhong was only a county lieutenant of the county where the jade capital is located, and then I don't know where to get a peerless exercise, began to practice, after the strength was improved, he became a county king, he is very business-minded, plus the jade capital is rich in an ore called black jade jade, black jade jade contains the essence of heaven and earth, is the treasure of cultivators, but at that time the black jade jade was controlled by a country called Qiang State, he secretly stole and sold black jade jade to accumulate the first pot of gold, and then began his road to fortune.
Fifty years have passed, Duan Ganhong has become a Xuanzun-level powerhouse, and founded the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce that deals throughout the Eastern Continent, his wealth has been rich and rivaled, and he built a magnificent city nearby, called the Jade Capital, when the Qiang State coveted Duan Ganhong's wealth, and launched a war against the Jade Capital under the control of Duan Ganhong, but the consequences were unexpected by the Qiang State, and the annoyed Duan Ganhong gave an order, the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce began to convene the killer organization to wage a full-scale war against the Qiang State, and for a time the killer organizations of the entire Eastern Continent all flocked to the Qiang State, and the Qiang State suffered a catastrophe, and since then it has been in a state of collapse and reduced to a small tribe enslaved by the barbarians, after this incident, the Jade Capital declared independence。
The Emerald Capital showed its strength, and since then, some surrounding countries have not dared to offend the Emerald Capital, and as time goes by, the business of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce has been made bigger and bigger by Duan Ganhong's descendants, covering the entire Eastern Continent, and the trade ties with the surrounding countries are also extremely close, and later some chambers of commerce have reached an alliance with the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce, and they are also stationed in the Emerald Capital. The Emerald Capital has greatly promoted the trade of several surrounding countries, and several powerful countries in the Eastern Continent such as the Zhongluyang Empire and the Tianliao Kingdom have seen the benefits of the Emerald Capital, and have carved out a piece of land within their own territory and invited business alliances such as the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce to enter.
After thousands of years have passed, the center of gravity of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce has moved away from the Emerald Capital, but in these thousands of years, the Emerald Capital has never decayed, and it is the most famous trade capital nearby. All kinds of spiritual treasure pills, you can even buy some extremely powerful demon beasts, and even let the queens and princesses of some countries accompany you for a night, or, let some super strong people obey you, no matter what your identity is, even if it is just an ordinary person!
Here, advocating the supremacy of money and opposing violence, any strong person, even the emperor of the country, if he is reprimanded by force here, will be hunted down endlessly by countless business alliances such as the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce!
The surrounding area of the Emerald Capital is thousands of kilometers, all under the control of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce, it is strictly forbidden to have a violent fight, Ye Chen and his entourage arrived at the Emerald Capital unharmed, and after handing over the invitation to the city gate guards, they can pass through the city gate.
What surprised Ye Chen was that there were two city gate guards who were earth-honor-level powerhouses, and the earth-honorable powerhouses actually deigned to do such hard work, which was really emotional.
Entering the Emerald Capital for the first time, Ye Chen really felt its prosperity, the Emerald Capital is big, it can only be regarded as a small city, but even if it is the center of the Imperial Capital of the Xiwu Empire, compared to the Emerald Capital, I am afraid that it is not as good as it!
The streets of five or six meters wide are all paved with gold, and the shops on both sides are also built of extremely precious wood, embellished with various gems and metals, and people come and go here, and you can see many rich merchants followed by groups of followers, and you can see the emperors, princesses, princesses and princesses of the empire everywhere, and some heads of martial arts families, and occasionally some lonely martial arts powerhouses.
What a magical world!
On this day, the Capital Chamber of Commerce actually used gold to pave the ground, as if it was afraid that others would not know their wealth, and after thinking about it, all the people who could come here were rich and rich, and it was naturally impossible to steal the gold on the ground, and one thing was more important, the entire Jade Capital was full of the eyes and ears of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce, and these gold were very safe on the ground.
"Brother Ye Chen, this land is full of gold, we can buy a lot of buns if we dig it back!" Xiao Yi cheered.
Hearing Xiao Tsubasa's voice, the people passing by around him all cast surprised and puzzled eyes, digging for gold on the ground, he was not afraid of being caught by the city guards!
Emperor Mingwu hurriedly grabbed Xiao Yi and said, "Xiao Yi, these gold are all from the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce, they can't be dug up, and if they are seen, they will arrest them." ”
Tsubasa blinked and nodded as if he understood.
Emperor Mingwu saw that Xiao Yi understood, so he didn't say anything anymore, but Xiao Yi's next sentence almost made him stumble.
"Then let's dig secretly at night, okay?" Xiao Yi looked at Ye Chen and said happily.
Xiao Squid looked at Xiao Yi in Xiao Wing's arms, and then at Ye Chen, smiling and squinting
Xiao Wing's voice was very loud, and several heavily armed, tenth-order master-level city guards in the distance all looked over when they heard Xiao Wing's words. However, none of them made any moves, and the guests who came here were all invited guests, as long as Xiao Wing didn't really dig up the gold on the ground, they wouldn't offend the guests.
Ahri's fleshy paw slapped her forehead, she was speechless to Xiao Wing, even if you want to steal this gold, there is no need to say it so loudly, blame yourself for not teaching him well.
Ye Chen could only reluctantly educate Xiao Yi that the gold on the ground could not be moved.
At this moment, Ye Chen suddenly felt that a series of soul thoughts swept towards his group of people, and this soul thought didn't know where it came from, Ye Chen was shocked, in this jade capital, there were actually mysterious beasts lurking! It is estimated that he saw the demon bodies of Ahri and Little Squid, and wanted to investigate!
The soul thoughts of these mysterious beasts, several of which are at the level of a Xuan Master, felt that there was a soul thought extending towards him, Ye Chen's eyebrows were slightly raised, and his soul came out of his body, wrapping Ahri, Xiao Wing and Xiao Squid inside, and those few soul thoughts touched Ye Chen's divine soul, like a cat that had been stepped on, jumped up with a swish, and quickly retracted.
Ye Chen looked at Ahri, only to see Ahri's clear eyes looking at him, he and Ahri had a heart, they didn't speak, they didn't expect to meet some mysterious beasts here.
It is more difficult for demon beasts to transform into human form, and the duration is short, of course, Xiao Wing is an exception, and the high-level mysterious beasts, if they have a heart, can easily transform into human form and hide in the middle of the crowd. I don't know what those mysterious beasts are doing here, but they also want to buy some spiritual treasure pills and other things to go back?
After those mysterious beasts were scared away, they shouldn't bother themselves anymore.
Looking ahead, there is a huge auction house in the distance, where people come and go.
"Isn't the auction going to start tomorrow?" Ye Chen asked.
Xuanyi Yaozun on the side smiled and said: "The real auction will indeed not start until tomorrow, but the auction house in front of it specializes in trading and buying and selling some low-end items and materials, and also collects all kinds of rare treasures. If you don't have an invitation letter or a nameplate from the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce, you can only enter the auction house under the leadership of the city guards. ”
"I see. Ye Chen nodded suddenly, it is estimated that some of the rare treasures held by the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce this time were also collected by the auction house!
"Now that we're here, let's go in and have a look. "Emperor Mingwu said.
The group walked towards the auction, one after another stone steps, all the way to a height of five or six meters, there were more than a dozen guards wearing dark golden armor standing at the door of the auction house, these guards were at least ten orders, led by an earth venerable master, and they were wearing armor made of rare metal dark iron, which showed the strength of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce! In addition to these guards, it is said that there is a Xuanzun-level master in the Jade Capital and several Tianzun masters.
Ye Chen and the others walked up the stone steps, and a guard wearing dark gold armor walked over and bowed slightly to Ye Chen and the others.
"Distinguished guest, do you have any nameplates for the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce?" the guard asked, smiling and very humble, making people feel very comfortable to look at.
"How many nameplates do I need? one nameplate per person to enter?" Ye Chen asked, he only had one nameplate in his hand, did he need one nameplate per person to enter the auction house?
"Distinguished guests, the nameplate of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce is divided into red, silver and dark gold, if there is no nameplate, you can only sit in the hall to participate in the transaction, for the safety of the guests, we must have our people to follow, if there is a nameplate, we will arrange a private room, the holder of the red nameplate, we will arrange a small private room, the silver and white slightly larger, dark gold, will arrange a luxury private room. Friends can be brought in regardless of the nameplate, but if it's just a small private room, it may seem a little crowded with so many people. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the large number of people attending the auction. The guard looked at Ye Chen and the others.
"I have a crimson nameplate here. Emperor Mingwu said on the side, he is also an old customer of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce.
"I also have a red nameplate here, so why don't you arrange two small rooms. Xuanyi Yaozun said, and took out a red nameplate from the Qiankun bag.
Seeing the two crimson nameplates, the guard bowed slightly and said humbly: "Distinguished guest, please come with me, and if you need anything, you can also command us at any time." ”
"Wait a minute. Ye Chen called Xuanyi Yaozun and Emperor Mingwu, only a few people couldn't sit down, it can be seen how small that private room is, and it is divided into two small rooms, which is too troublesome.
