Chapter 134: Punishment for Slaughtering the City
Call!
Whew!
Early in the morning, Meteor rehearsed the "Flame Shooting" in his mansion, the gun went with the flames, playing tiger and tiger, and when the game rose, a trace of blood power quietly emerged in the dantian, integrated into the divine fire gun, the dark red flame suddenly had a tendency to transform into a golden flame, and the temperature in the air also skyrocketed in vain, leaving a series of charred black scars on the ground, and he was so frightened that he quickly stopped stopping and pressed down the power of the blood veins that forcibly came out.
This is in the Sifang City, in case the display of bloodline talent attracts the attention of other chakra realm powerhouses, it will be a big trouble.
Meteor suddenly didn't dare to rehearse the flame shooting easily, lest he expose the secret.
Lin Zhen went out to buy groceries and came back, bringing good news to him who happened to be bored:
"General, I heard that the caravan from Tianbao County is here again, and it is about to enter the city, do you want to buy something?"
"Tianbao Firm? β
Meteor was together, Qian Song, Zhang Jie and the other four immediately grabbed the divine musket and accompanied them, since the attack on Mobei Mansion, the four of them have become full-time guards.
Tianbao merchants entered the city, and the city became lively.
Escorted by the mercenaries of Tianbao County, huge special carriages traveled down the main street to the city's bazaar.
Standing at the door of his mansion, Meteor could 'see' the goods in the huge special carriages, from spirit beasts to slaves to all kinds of commodities.
It's a great feeling to be on your doorstep and look at all the goods.
Meteor stopped to look, and from time to time the mercenaries of Tianbao County nodded along the wayβthey already knew that this unusually young general was a powerful figure in Sifang City.
This time, Tianbao Trading House brought a lot of spirit beasts and half-spirit beast resources, a total of more than forty;
There were more than 200 slaves, mostly young men, women and children, ragged and frightened.
Meteor was not interested in slaves, and he thought that the remaining 180,000 gold in his hand could buy a few spirit beasts, but on the other hand, he felt that it was not cost-effective.
After all, now the first battalion already has the ability to hunt spirit beasts, but there is no relatively stable and safe external environment, and it is not very necessary to purchase spirit beast flesh and blood from a trading house at a high price.
While thinking about it, he suddenly found that a metal fence of all stainless steel structure slowly rolled past the door of the mansion, and the heavy carriage crushed the ground into a broken wheel mark, and inside was a giant elephant covered in scales, with a thick and huge body that was seven or eight meters high, which was still the height when lying down.
A dozen or twenty mercenaries struggled to push the cart behind, but it was still very difficult.
Meteor was immediately fascinated by this scene:
"How did such a heavy guy get here?"
"Why don't you put it in the storage ring?"
Qian Song and Zhang Jie couldn't help muttering in the back.
The mercenaries happened to push forward, and one of them happened to know Meteor, and explained with a smile when he heard this:
"We don't know what's going on, this giant elephant was met on the road, it just killed a day, it seems that its vitality is very tenacious, it didn't die immediately, and it can't fit in the storage space. β
"Oh?"
The meteor suddenly showed a curious look:
"Didn't your caravan take its core right away?"
"This is the habit of our Tianbao firm, the unexpected harvest that is about to arrive at the destination, we will not take out the core directly, but after arriving at the destination, we will conduct a bidding auction, and even the giant elephant with the body ** core will bid together, and the one with the highest price will win. β
The meteor looked thoughtful.
Later, it was noticed that except for this mercenary, people from other directions of the caravan were all preaching that the giant elephant had a kernel hidden in its body and was not dead, and it seemed that they intended to regard this windfall spirit beast as the most important sale for this visit to Sifang City.
He was still a little excited, but when he saw the posture of the Tianbao Trading House in the whole city, he immediately knew that this giant elephant had no chance with him.
180,000 gold is not enough to take down such a colossal giant elephant spirit beast, at most take a few spirit beasts of flesh and blood;
After following the tail of the convoy into the bazaar, Meteor quickly found that there were not many people from the Yan family's main family who came to the Spirit Beast Bazaar to trade today, less than half of the last time, and most of them were hesitating outside, listening carefully to what they were saying, they were actually bargaining.
"No, no, the price of the spirit beast given to the Yan family is already one percent lower than the market price, and it can't be lower. β
"But you also know that we have paid too much for this war with the Liancheng Shui family, and we don't have much money to buy spirit beasts. β
"I can't lose money! That would be a bad explanation...... I'd rather take it to another city and sell it than lose money. β
"It's cheaper, and I'll make it up to you later. β
"No, absolutely not! You can exchange things, but no one above or below me will accept credit. β
β......β
Meteor frowned darkly when he heard this.
He can understand the small number of people.
Yan Xiaoxiao and a group of juniors went to the Six Veins Divine Sect, so naturally there was a group of fewer competitors.
But......
The bargain is strange.
Although the Yan family paid some funds, the night demon mercenaries did not appear for a long time, and the most they paid was 200,000 gold, which was a drop in the bucket for the Yan family, and it would not hurt the muscles and bones at all.
With a twitch of ears, Meteor heard the mercenary talking in the other direction:
"The Yan family slaughtered the city this time and sacrificed a city in Liancheng County, 100,000 living beings, I heard that it was the same as decades ago, and took out the city's ten-year tax revenue and handed it over to the Yundu side, hehe...... Ten years of taxes, to say the least, there are seven or eight million gold, no wonder now even the funds for the acquisition of spirit beasts are tight. β
"Well deserved. β
"This is the City of the Quadrangle, be quiet. β
When Meteor heard this, he was stunned.
In fact, he had been wondering that the Yan Clan's dispatch of the gods to slaughter the city would not cause the wrath of the Tianpeng Dynasty to crusade, and it turned out that he could be exempted from punishment by paying taxes for ten years.
No wonder!
The Yan clan paid the taxes of the slaughtered city for the next ten years in one go, and paid a lot of price for sacrificing to the gods, adding up to the loss of at least 10 million gold, and now the financial embarrassment is inevitable.
As soon as he thought of this, Meteor suddenly had some thoughts about the giant elephant that had not yet died.
At this moment, Su Peng came over with a group of people, carrying a large box of money in his hand.
"What is this for?"
Meteors are inexplicable.
Su Peng grinned:
"General, my subordinates made their own decisions, and asked the soldiers of the next battalion and the sixth battalion if they were willing to buy the flesh and blood of the spirit beast, and as a result, all the rewards issued a few days ago were collected, and everyone wanted to ask the general to help buy some flesh and blood of the spirit beast to improve the food for the big guys, hehe......"
Gotcha, 240,000 gold, and I got it back!
Meteor thought for a moment, nodded, put the box containing the money into the storage bracelet, and walked directly to the carriage, ready to negotiate internally.
