Among the five city lords, the city lord's treatment is the best, and the income of the deputy city lord is not bad, each of them has half of the total tax private income, not to mention that they can also use the money from the treasury to support the guard of a hundred monks.

Taxes and other things are only the main income, and there are many other benefits, such as the fact that there are auction houses in each settlement, which specialize in auctioning rare treasures, and all the monks who participate in the auction not only have to buy tickets, but also have to take a percentage of the auction items.

However, if it involves a qiē transaction in the settlement, the five city lords can enjoy free treatment, and they also enjoy the highest level of treatment, such as the city lord and another monk at the same time, and in the case of equal bids, the city lord has the right of first refusal!

In short, grabbing the position of the city lord is equivalent to grabbing the supreme privilege, not only ordinary monks have thoughts about the position of the city lord, but even the top forces such as the Four Extremes Dynasty will also fight for the position of the city lord with all their might.

Therefore, if Tang Chuyang wants to snatch the position of the city lord, it is almost impossible to have a decisive superior force, and in terms of the strength he currently has, counting the hundred believers is still weak.

Putting away a slightly unsettled mood, Tang Chuyang began to carefully inspect the internal facilities of the shop, in addition to the living room of more than 300 square meters outside, there is a forging room of about 500 square meters, a warehouse of more than 500 square meters, and a living room of more than 1,000 square meters.

Coupled with the front of more than 200 square meters, this small store that looks like only one or twenty square meters on the outside actually has a space of 3,000 square meters inside!

According to the owner of the shop, the reason why such a large space can be derived is because this small shop of less than 20 square meters is built with Qiankun stone.

Qiankun Stone is a specialty of Tidal Mountain. Although it is not rare, it is not so easy to obtain, and the Qiankun stone with a fingernail cover is the size of a storage ring, which can refine a storage ring with a storage space of no less than a square circle.

Whether it's in the Tidal Mountain, or outside in the Five Elements Continent. Qiankun stone is the top hot-selling goods, as long as there is a stock, it will definitely be coaxed out in the first time.

A thousand square meters of living room, Tang Chuyang alone can never use it up, after thinking about it for a while, he decided to renovate the largest living room. The dormitory was made into a dormitory in the style of a bunk for more than 100 people such as Jin Yang to live in, which also saved him from spending extra money on the accommodation of these people.

When they came to the shop outside, the three of Jin Yang had already counted the goods in the store, and Lu Jun, who was more proficient in bookkeeping, reported to Tang Chuyang:

"Young Master. The goods have been counted, and there is nothing else in the store except for the spirit armor, including three sixth-order high-grade spirit armors, two sixth-order middle-grade spirit armors, and the shopkeeper left three sixth-order lower-grade spirit armors before leaving, which are the highest-grade spirit armors in the store at this time. ”

As he spoke, Lu Jun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the ledger in his hand. And then he said:

"For the rest, one fifth-order top-grade spirit armor and fifteen top-grade ones. There are 38 pieces of medium grade, 51 pieces of lower grade, and a total of 177 pieces of fourth-order spirit armor, of which 127 pieces are of high grade, 50 pieces of medium grade, and no lower grade. There is no spirit armor below the fourth order, this is the account. Young master, take a look at ......"

"No need ......"

Tang Chuyang waved his hand, this batch of spirit armor numbered more than two hundred. For Lu Jun, it is indeed an amazing wealth, but the interests of the family general and the family head are almost one, and being able to withstand the temptation of interests is one of the rules of the family general.

For Lu Jun, Jin Yang and others, Tang Chuyang was still trustworthy, and after admiring all the spirit armor in a circle, Tang Chuyang waved his hand and said to Lu Jun:

"Take all the spirit armor to the warehouse, one believer will have a fourth-order high-grade spirit armor, and the three of you will pick a fifth-order spirit armor to protect yourself, and put away the rest, we will stay here for three years, and we can't rely on the spirit armor to do business......"

This is the wisest thing to do, because Tang Chuyang is not an armor refiner, and even if the business of this shop is bad, it is impossible for two hundred pieces of spirit armor to be sold for three years, unless Tang Chuyang marks all the spirit armor at a sky-high price.

"Ah?!Young Master, if we put away all the spirit armor, what are we selling?"

Lu Jun and the three of them listened to Tang Chuyang's order, but their first reaction was not the surprise after receiving the reward, but the surprise on their faces, but then the three of them remembered that their young master was a spirit painter, so they slapped themselves in annoyance, and said in unison:

"Yes, we really can't sell spirit armor, we have to sell the Summoning God Map!"

Tang Chuyang smiled and nodded, he really thought so, fortunately he was a spirit painter, otherwise Tang Chuyang would not have taken over this store, otherwise it wouldn't be long before there would be no goods to sell, and it would be a waste of the price he paid to buy the store.

Since he wants to sell the Summoning God Map, Tang Chuyang has to understand the market of the Summoning God Map, anyway, the store has just taken over, Tang Chuyang is not in a hurry to open it immediately, first go out and take a turn around the entire settlement, and then talk about it, while understanding the market, he also understands the layout of the settlement.

These basic information must be collected, and Tang Chuyang must personally understand it in order to obtain more authentic and specific information.

Tang Chuyang left a thousand generals for Lu Jun and the three of them, and told them about the various taboos and rules of the settlement, and then instructed the three of them to purchase some building materials, renovate the living room behind the store, and arrange a hundred believers to go in.

In the first year of the trial, the monks participating in the trial were not allowed to move with each other, even if they encountered a great enemy of life and death, they were not allowed to do it in the settlement, otherwise the elders in the city would directly kill them!

Moreover, Tang Chuyang also deliberately inquired with the shopkeeper that it was still very safe for the servants brought by each trialist to stay in the settlement, because the settlement clearly stipulated that it was not allowed to kill the servants of other trialists at will.

Of course, this rule is only valid within the settlements, and those who leave the settlements will have to bear the consequences.

Therefore, Tang Chuyang was still very relieved about the safety of Lu Jun and the others, because after almost a day of understanding, Tang Chuyang was quite sure that no one seemed to dare to offend the rules in the settlement.

After leaving the store, Tang Chuyang did not stay near the square, anyway, this is where his own store is located, and you can learn about it in the future.

Standing on the square, it can be roughly seen that this settlement is divided into three streets horizontally and vertically, and three streets at least three zhang wide divide the entire settlement into sixteen areas, each of which has several streets and lanes.

Tang Chuyang first walked around the city along the most marginal street, and advanced at a uniform speed with the normal speed of ordinary people, and it took him an hour of hard work, which made Tang Chuyang know that this seemingly small city-scale settlement was actually not small.

When chatting with the shopkeeper, Tang Chuyang knew that the settlement he was assigned to belonged to one of the six settlements in the middle of the ring, and each settlement city had its own name, and there was a rule in this name, which was named according to the 'sun, moon and stars' from the inside out.

The three innermost settlements are the safest and the largest, namely Haoyang City, Lieyang City and Yanyang City, and the six cities in the middle are medium-sized, namely Crescent Moon City, Chasing Moon City, Falling Moon City, Breaking Moon City, Inviting Moon City and Moon Worship City.

The city where Tang Chuyang is located is the 'Falling Moon City', and the outermost nine cities are named after the 'stars', and the cities named after Chen are not recognized as safe settlements.

Rather, it is a small settlement formed by major dynasties or other races that are unwilling to bear the high taxes of the settlement, and then rely on their own strong strength.

These settlements are dotted in the outermost periphery, and they are also the most dangerous settlements, every time the monster attacks the city, the worst thing is that these are named after 'Chen', and the largest settlement is only the size of a small town, and almost every monster attack is the result of not one in ten.

The daylight hours of Tidal Mountain were one hundred and twenty hours, so although it took Tang Chuyang more than thirty hours to carefully visit the entire settlement, when he returned to the shop in the center of the square, the sky was still bright.

More than thirty hours is almost three days outside, Tang Chuyang not only has a thorough understanding of the layout of Falling Moon City, but also has a more intuitive understanding of the prices of some more mainstream goods in various markets.

The way in which goods are sold in Tidal Mountain, especially the sale of spirit runes and the Divine Diagram, which are in short supply, is priced in a way that doubles the average price outside, which is still a moderately low price.

Falling Moon City is not without shops that sell spirit runes or summoning god maps, but because the consumption of such materials is too large, basically every store has a limited supply, and it is also available in large quantities and at a high price.

Moreover, Tang Chuyang also found that the most important trading method here is barter, and few people will directly use Yuanjing to buy items.

Tang Chuyang already knew the reason why Yuan Jing was precious, because he had personally verified it himself, and was surprised to find that although the concentration of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in Tidal Mountain was a hundred times higher than that of the Five Elements Continent, the speed of cultivation and transformation of Yuan Shen Essence was very slow.

Taking Tang Chuyang himself as an example, he could cultivate twenty-four hours a day without interruption, and with his current cultivation in the late stage of the Liangyi Realm, he could now store almost a hundred units of Yuan Shen Essence in a day, of course, this was the transformation speed outside.

But in Tidal Mountain, his transformation speed was reduced by at least ten times, and according to Tang Chuyang's estimation based on himself, he could transform less than thirty Yuan Shen Essences after a whole day of exhaustion.

The only good thing is that the quality of the Yuan Shen essence transformed in this way is extremely high, Tang Chuyang estimates that even if it is a monk with the worst cultivation qualifications and uses the worst exercises, the transformed Yuan Jing will not be the worst inferior Yuan Crystal, but the quality is up to standard!

Now Tang Chuyang also understands why as long as the goods involving the essence of the Yuan Shen are so valuable in Tidal Mountain, because everything in Tidal Mountain is better than the outside, and the only bad thing is that there are very few spiritual objects produced here that can restore the essence of the Yuan Shen!
