Chapter 3 Wantong Building

The group quickly entered the city under the leadership of Li Jun.

Li Hui and the others all hid their breath and converged, if it weren't for the people whose cultivation was much higher than them, they would not be able to find out their true cultivation at all.

When you enter the city, you will find that the city is huge, the streets are wide, the buildings are tall and a little rough, and there is a kind of bold beauty. This place is not the same as the cities built by complete cultivators in Xiazhou Ziwei City and Tianhu City. In general, these buildings are not as exquisite and luxurious as the big cities such as Tianhu Lake and Ziwei, but they also have their own style.

The streets are lined with rows of shops, silk and satin shops and tea shops, this side may be a secular restaurant, and next door, there is a shop selling spiritual weapons.

This state of mixed living between monks and mortals, Li Hui and the others were all seeing it for the first time, and they couldn't help but be a little curious.

"Seniors, you see, on both sides of this street, almost most of the shops are from the Dade Tong Business Alliance, and the signboards have the mark of Dade Tong. Li Jun introduced.

Li Hui looked at both sides of the street, and sure enough, most of the shops were marked with the Dade Tong Merchant Deal, and among these merchants, there were not only secular industries, but also industries specializing in the materials needed by cultivators, all of which showed what a behemoth the Dade Tong Trade Alliance was hidden behind it.

Li Hui couldn't help but think of the mortal street in his hometown, which was somewhat similar to this Nanlong City, but it was far from it. It was just a small street, and all the huge cities of Nanlong City were like this.

Their group of people walking on the street is still a little eye-catching, especially when they are accompanied by a gorgeous and moving woman like Liu Piaofu.

However, those high-rollers with swords are also well-informed, and know that these people cannot be provoked. Although there is a precedent for innate martial artists to join forces to kill the Tsukiji monks, that is not something that everyone can do. What's more, there are as many as eight people on the other side.

In fact, when it comes to swordsmanship and martial arts, Li Hui doesn't need to say it, even Lin Yang is enough to compare with most of those innate martial artists.

"Let's find a restaurant and rest before we decide. Li Hui looked ahead and said lightly.

Naturally, the others had no opinion, and they all nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I know that there is a Yunxian Ju restaurant with a big name and excellent dishes, so please come with me. Li Jun hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way.

After walking hundreds of feet, everyone was in a tall ?? Stopped in front of the tall building. This building is extremely exquisitely decorated, and it can be regarded as an outlier in Nanlong City, where the overall architectural style is rough.

The restaurant was full of people, some of the high-rollers were talking and laughing loudly, and there were also babbling singing songs coming from the private seats.

Before Li Hui entered the restaurant, his divine sense reached out to cover the entire restaurant and observed the environment inside.

After a moment, Li Hui frowned, then stretched out, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Interesting, there is actually a Jindan monk, seven or eight foundation building monks, in this land of Shangzhou, monks are really everywhere. Li Hui sighed in his heart, and then led everyone into the restaurant.

Immediately, a capable little man greeted him, bringing everyone directly to a small private room.

Everyone didn't care about the price, and ordered some drinks and meals at random. Soon the table was full of wine and food, and the little two retreated knowingly. Li Hui raised his hand to place a ban to prevent detection, and then everyone chatted while eating.

"I thought it would be better for me and a few others to hide their identities and follow those caravans, so that someone could lead the way to some big cities, and also learn some of the conditions along the way, and know more about the place. Li Hui said slowly.

"The sect master's plan is wonderful, we are new to this place, although we can see some classic records and map displays, but after all, it is not as intuitive as experiencing it once. Liu Piaoxu nodded in agreement.

"Okay, maybe there will be some adventures on the road, I haven't come out for a long time, but I'm a little bored. ”

"Well, I'm also a little curious, how these secular martial artists fight against cultivators, it's not bad to be able to see it. ”

......

Several other elders agreed. Lin Yang was even more excited, after all, he was a teenager, and he was still more interested in these novelties.

Li Jun was a little puzzled as he listened, thinking to himself that these were not the most common things to see? Why did these seniors look like they had never seen them before, and they were so interested? Could it be that these seniors were members of the Hidden Sect, and every day they were like the Supreme Elder in their own sect, who only retreated and never went out?

No matter how he could have imagined, these people were not from Shangzhou at all. For the monks of Shangzhou, Xiazhou and the like were undoubtedly just some recorded concepts in the old and rotten classics of the sect. Shangzhou is so vast and vast that even monks may not be able to set foot in the land of Shangzhou throughout their lives, and Shangzhou is near the sea, and there is a more boundless world overseas. Therefore, almost no monks in Shangzhou would think about going to Liangzhou, Xiazhou, as recorded in those classics.

In fact, most of the monks didn't even know these names, and although there were texts that recorded them, they had long been lying in the corners of the sect's Taoist halls and no one cared about them.

The same is true in Xiazhou and Chuzhou. Chuzhou is a small place, and some people will want to go to Xiazhou, but the monks in Xiazhou feel that the wild beast Ze is the whole world. I didn't bother to think about what unreachable Shangzhou and Youzhou. As for Chuzhou and Liangzhou, in the eyes of the monks of Xiazhou, it is like a city person looking at the countryside.

When Li Hui and the others were talking, they also deliberately avoided talking about these situations in Xiazhou, so as not to arouse Li Jun's suspicions.

"Sect Master Li, if we want to follow those caravans of the Great Merchant Alliance to some large cities, what do we need to do to join their caravans?" Li Hui turned his head and asked.

Hearing this Li Sect Master, Li Jun felt flattered, and at the same time faintly a little uneasy, hurriedly put down the tableware in his hand, and replied respectfully: "Senior Li is polite, just call me Li Jun" and then changed the conversation If the caravan is closer, then as long as some mortal warriors are hired, there are several innate warriors with some acquired warriors, which is enough to deal with the situation on the road, but the road is a little farther, there must be a large group of warriors and to hire monks to go together, usually in this case, the information will be released on the Wantong building in the center of the city, and there will be information and personnel of the major business alliances there, so as to facilitate the two sides to reach an agreement. ”

Li Hui nodded, this method is indeed convenient, just like a labor market. The merchant unions could post jobs and the warriors and monks could go there to find jobs.

"Okay, then after eating, let's go to the Wantong Building to have a look. Li Hui immediately made a decision.

Although Li Jun had some doubts in his heart as to why these people followed these secular caravans with the respect of Jindan monks, he didn't dare to say anything, thinking that this was just some special preferences of the seniors, so he didn't ask much, just said that he would lead the way for a while.

The food here is very distinctive, although all the people here are cultivators.

After paying the bill, the group left the Yunxian Residence and walked towards the Wantong Building in the center of the city.

To Li Hui's surprise, this restaurant could choose to settle the bill with spirit stones and gold and silver. I can't help but sigh at the surprise of the customs.

Wantong Tower is a huge nine-storey building that can be seen in almost any direction of Nanlong City.

When I arrived downstairs at Wantong, it immediately presented an unusually prosperous scene.

Downstairs in this Wantong, there is a huge bluestone square with a square radius of thousands of feet, and the square is bustling at the moment, and there are all kinds of stalls everywhere.

Some sell some animal skins and bones, some have some ores, some have some talismans, and some look quite heroic warriors holding swords and a book of unfathomable cheats in front of them.

It can be said that there are three religions and nine streams here, and there are all kinds of people. There are cultivators, there are secular warriors, there are old liars with lotus tongues, and there are masters with good martial arts.

In addition, there are some people who don't seem to do business or buy anything, but just have a pair of eyes that wander around, and occasionally come forward to talk to someone.

What attracted Li Hui was that the southwest corner of the square seemed to be a place dedicated to selling legged livestock.

Most of the secular warriors rode horses, and Li Hui also saw the secular warriors galloping on horses in the secular world of Liangzhou. But the warrior mounts in the land of Shangzhou are completely different.

There were pillars of brass the size of bowls, on which were tied to the pillars of violent and unusually violent animals. Some Jianghu warriors with swords on their shoulders, as well as cultivators with weak breath and cultivation who were obviously in the Qi refining period, gathered around and selected these animals.

The reason why I say these animals is that Li Hui really doesn't know how to define these animals. These animals, which looked much taller and stronger than horses, were also much more fierce-tempered, and their shapes were very different, and they looked a little like monsters, but they were not like monsters.

Li Hui saw that there was a horse with a body like a horse, as red as a coal, a foot high, a single horn on its head, an animal that kept jumping and neighing, and a horse with a bull's head......

"Those guys who go around and talk to people are brokers here, who specialize in matching and introducing people to business alliances that need to hire warriors or monks, and will take a part of the intermediate benefit fee after the matter is completed. As for those animals, they are the favorites of those secular warriors, these beasts are actually some low-level demon beasts, but they have been domesticated, and they are used as mounts with flying nature and good endurance. Li Jun introduced.

Li Hui nodded, very interested.

"Those businesses are recruiting people on the first three floors of this Wantong Building, and after entering it, you can see that there are specific businesses that need manpower. To enter the Wantong Building, you have to pay a part of the fee, so there is room for those brokers to operate, but the regular business alliance does not cooperate with those brokers, but through the Wantong Building, they sign contracts with the monks and warriors who come to recruit and agree on the remuneration, so that there will be a lot less controversy. ”
