Seeing Chang Feng approaching, Han Dang motioned for Chang Feng to sit beside him and asked with a smile, "Chang Feng, these spiritual foods in the Western Regions taste good!"

"The taste is extremely delicious, and it is the first time for a disciple to taste such a delicacy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Chang Feng replied truthfully.

Although Chang Feng had eaten a lot of delicious spiritual food in Chang's family, most of them could no longer remember the original taste, and now such words are his sincere words.

"What kind of delicacy is this!The Immortal Cultivation Realm is big, there are many delicious foods, as long as you are strong enough, you can eat dragon liver and phoenix gall, that is the real delicacy?" nodded with a smile and said, Han Dang turned to ask: "Chang Feng, looking at the thoughtful look on your face just now, is there any confusion?"

"This Elder Han Dang is really a person with a heart!" Chang Feng had a question in his heart, but when Han Dang asked at this moment, he didn't hide it, and instead asked: "Elder Han, there are some things that the disciple can't understand, please explain?"

"Haha...... I am like a brother to your uncle, and although I am not your teacher, as long as I know it, I will definitely answer your questions. Han Dang obviously regarded Chang Feng as his own.

Chang Feng frowned slightly, and then asked directly, "Elder Han, why do we have to go to the Moon Clan's Honey Water City to buy and sell immortal cultivation resources?"

According to Chang Feng's knowledge, the Seven Kingdoms of Mountains and Seas are all markets with resource transactions, and the capitals of the Seven Kingdoms are the largest places for resource trading, with resources from all over the Mountains and Seas Continent.

As soon as Chang Feng asked, Han Dang naturally knew the question in his heart, stared at Chang Feng for a while, and then said, "Anyway, you will know about this sooner or later, if there is nothing to do at this time, Elder Ben will tell you the reason." ”

"Chang Feng, do you know what the main reliance of the Shanhai Kingdom to rule the Shanhai Continent is?"

Chang Feng really paid attention to this problem, and after a little thought, he said: "The territory of the Shanhai Country is vast, rich in resources, and it has the most elite army of monks in the Shanhai Continent, with a standing army of 20 million alone, and a huge hurricane fleet, which can dispatch troops at the fastest speed, and no other force can compete with it. ”

"You're right, but that's only one aspect. Nodding his head in agreement with Chang Feng's explanation, Han Dang thought for a while and then said: "In Shanhai Country, in addition to the many temple management institutions such as the Prime Minister, the Supervision of the Imperial History, and the Marshal of the Army, there are three other special institutions. ”

"They are the Great Wilderness School Palace, which is responsible for cultivating the children of monks, and most of the monks in the Shanhai Kingdom are from this institution that specializes in cultivating monks; ”

"In addition to these two special institutions, Shanhaiguo has also set up a special institution, Jiutianfang City. ”

"At the beginning of the Shanhai Kingdom, there was a clear agreement with the other six countries, and the six countries remained independent, with their own territory, population, and army, but they did not have their own resource trading market. ”

"The establishment and management of all the fang markets in the six countries are all under the responsibility of the Shanhai State, and the six countries can buy and sell in the fang market, but they have no right to interfere in the operation and management of the fang market. ”

"By controlling the Fang City of resource trading within the Six Kingdoms, the Shanhai Kingdom also controls the resource and economic lifeline of the Six Nations in disguise, and compared with the strong military power, the control of the Fang City is the biggest dependence of the Shanhai Kingdom to maintain its rule. ”

"Is there such a thing?" It was so secretive, Chang Feng really heard it for the first time, and his heart was full of shock.

Even though Chang Feng is young, it is also clear that if a country wants to maintain independent operation, it must have economic resources and military strength, which is the two thighs of a country, and it is impossible to do without one.

However, the Six Nations do not have the right to establish and manage the resource trading market, which also puts the lifeblood of their economic resources into the hands of the Shanhai State in disguise, so even if they have a strong military force, it may be difficult to continue.

"No wonder the Shanhai Kingdom has raised the banner of encircling and suppressing the Demon Clan, and the Six Nations have no choice but to go along with it, so I think the root cause is here?" After thinking for a while, Chang Feng turned around and asked, "Elder Han, without the independence of economic resources, what kind of independent country are the Six Kingdoms?" Could it be that the Six Nations are willing to be controlled like this?"

"Of course, the six countries are not reconciled, and they have thought of many means of resistance, but the mountains and seas are all able to crack it, so that the six countries cannot form their own resource markets, and the most important thing is that the mountains and seas are unusually strong on this issue, and they will not back down in the slightest. Han Dang explained.

"If I were the emperor of the Shanhai Continent, I would definitely not give in the slightest in order to maintain my rule over the Shanhai Continent. With a thin sentence in his heart, Chang Feng thought again: "These six countries are inevitably too spineless, aren't they! The two thighs of economy and military are not as good as others, but the other economic thigh is in the hands of others, so can you obediently listen to the country of mountains and seas?"

Frowning, Chang Feng turned to ask, "Elder Han, in this way, the Shanhai Kingdom has a firm control over the resource economy of the Six Kingdoms, but it is not strong in the control of the alien territory?"

"Not bad. Nodding in response, Han Dang continued: "The three foreign tribes of Beihu, Xirong, and Nanban do not have a similar agreement with Shanhai Kingdom, so their Fang City has its own independence. ”

"Although the Shanhai Kingdom has set up the Nine Heavenly Fang City in the three major foreign lands, and even the buying and selling transactions occupy a lot of shares, it is impossible to have control in the other six countries, and even have to abide by the regulations in the foreign people's Fang City. ”

For this reason, the six nations have cooperated with the three major foreign races, and transferred some of the resources to them in order to obtain greater benefits for themselves. ”

"It can be said that within the Seven Kingdoms of Mountains and Seas, the transactions of the Resources Fang City of the Six Nations are completely controlled by the Mountains and Seas, but among the three major foreign territories, the control of the Mountains and Seas is reduced to the minimum. ”

Hearing this, Chang Feng nodded to show that he understood, and Han Dang continued after a slight pause: "The five sects and four families are the forces of the rivers and lakes, each of which cannot be compared with the other six countries, but after all, it is the representative of the forces of the rivers and lakes determined when the mountains and seas were founded, and they also have good strength. ”

"To this end, the Shanhai Kingdom has also set up a special Yushi Right Platform to supervise the Jianghu forces, in order to firmly monitor the Jianghu forces and prevent the Jianghu forces from colluding with the other six countries to do anything that threatens the rule of the Shanhai Kingdom. ”

"Shanhai Kingdom clearly stipulates that the purchase and sale of resources of the five and four major schools must be carried out through the Jiutianfang City, which is established within the Seven Kingdoms, so that the real strength of the five and four families can be estimated through the transaction of resources, and they have control over the forces of the rivers and lakes. ”

"Our Xuantian Sect is naturally no exception, and we are also subject to such surveillance, but trading in Jiutianfang City, Shanhai Country has extracted too much tax, and we don't want to leak all our strength, so it has become a necessary choice to seek transactions in other locations. ”

"There are many immortal cultivation resources in the territory of Xirong Liubu, including some special resources from the Flood Desolate Continent, making this a gathering place of resources. ”

"Although the overall strength of the Xirong Six Immortal Cultivation Realms is not strong, and they don't even deal with each other very much, they regard the Fang Market of the transaction as the lifeblood of the survival of the Six Divisions, and they desperately protect it, even the Nine Heavens Fang City of the Mountain and Sea Country must obey their rules when they are there. ”

"Among the six departments of Xirong, the Yueshi Fang City is the most perfect, and it is the one with the largest resource gathering and the largest trading volume among the six departments, and it is even rumored that the annual transaction volume of resources is no less than the trading volume of Jiutianfang City, the capital of Shanhai Kingdom. ”

"In this way, over time, the six divisions of Xirong have become a living place for resource trading on the Shanhai Continent, five sects and four families, and the seven countries of Shanhai have set up resource trading bases in the six departments of Xirong, among which the Yueshi Honey Water City is naturally the most. ”

"In this way, although the road is long and there are many dangers in the middle, the forces of all parties will still take some of the resources in their hands to Honeywater City to buy and sell. ”

"This time, this sect is stationed in Chilong Valley, and after more than three years of fighting, he has obtained a lot of demon beast materials, just thinking of exchanging these demon beast materials for more refining mineral materials, and at the same time secretly trading some other immortal cultivation resources to meet the needs of the development of this sect. ”

"Chang Feng, now, you should understand why we are willing to go to Yue's Honey Water City to seek resource trading!"

Han Dang's explanation was detailed enough, and Chang Feng heard it clearly, so he naturally understood the reason, and hurriedly responded: "Thank you Elder Han for solving puzzles, the younger generation has been taught." ”

Such a conversation made Chang Feng know more about the Shanhai Country and the Shanhai Continent, and he secretly said in his heart that this trip was worthwhile, this is the beginning and he has gained a lot of knowledge, I really don't know how much experience and knowledge he will increase when he ends this trip.

After seeing Chang Feng nodding in recognition and understanding, Han Dang turned to say again: "Chang Feng, although there are many crises in this trip, you shouldn't be too nervous, Elder Luan and Lu Guang and I have walked this path more than once, as long as we are not unlucky, there should not be much danger." ”

The juniors believe in and respect the elders, and they hope to gain enough experience and insight from this trip, and the juniors believe that Elder Han's extensive knowledge will be useful for the juniors for a lifetime. Chang Feng responded with gratitude, and patted Han Dang's ass by the way.

"Haha...... Chang Feng, you don't talk much, but you can really speak, this point, Elder Ben can't accept it, this sycophant is comfortable. After a loud laugh, Han Dang said even more vigorously:

"Chang Feng, next Elder Ben will tell you about the characteristics of the six tribes of Xirong and their belief totems, so that you can better understand them, you listen to Elder Ben......"
