I am rich in the fairy world

Chapter 799 Fengtu City

The mines are so tough, Shui Xin and Xuan Yao changed their appearance. After finding the main road, it is easy to find various gemstone processing workshops. Sure enough, there are many regular customers who bring convoys to purchase goods. Looking at those convoys, Hu Qing was thoughtful.

"Will there be any impact if the gem mine is stored in the space?"

"Do you think everyone has space? Although there are many refining materials in the Demon Realm, the best refining techniques are in the hands of humans. The Demon Realm certainly does not have more space than the Fairy Realm. Space is a high-end tool and cannot be an everyday item. Unless one can build a space by oneself, most people can't afford it. Even if they can afford it, they can't use it as a carriage." Xudong explained.

Hu nodded. So, everyone still used ordinary storage containers to transport goods, but if there were too many goods, more storage containers would be needed, so they used horse-drawn carriages to transport the storage containers.

It’s the same as in the fairyland.

Hu Qing is a professional when it comes to selecting materials. The first time he only looks at the goods and asks the price. The second time he picks the materials he likes and bargains for the price. It is only on the third time that he actually makes his move.

The factory price was much cheaper than the market price, and Hu Qing wanted to spend all the money he had on him to buy gems. The application range of these gems was very wide, and Hu Qing could even refine a lot of tools with just them.

That day, she was bargaining with a blue-faced boss until her face turned green, when suddenly she heard a strange wind sound in the air and turned her head to look.

"Kneel down—"

Accompanied by the boss's long and loud shout, before Hu Qing could react, he was pulled to his knees on the ground.

The boss winked at her and said, "When the city lord is traveling, anyone who does not kneel will be killed. Considering that I saved your life, you can't kneel any lower."

Hu Qing made a gesture to seal the deal, and when he glanced around, he saw that everyone around him was kneeling, including his own people.

Very good, it’s just kneeling on the ground, just one action. She is the Immortal Emperor and she doesn’t show her pride - bah, you are not afraid of shortening your lifespan by making me kneel!

He listened quietly to the sound of the wind flying from behind his head to the center and then flew past. Hearing the people around him shouting the slogan of City Lord Wan Wanchao, Hu Qing quietly looked up.

Just looking at the convoy in the sky, the ferocious beasts coiled up in shape, full of oppression. Hu Qing looked to the front, but there were two cars in parallel, the models were huge and the shapes were exaggerated, so that Hu Qing could tell at a glance the source of the shape of the two cars - the ferocious beast Qiongqi and the six-winged demon Chi.

Seeing the six featherless wings with red upper part and black lower part, the silk cloth sent a message at the right time: the ancient Chilong God had six-winged twins. The six wings with red upper part and black lower part were the bright sea. The six wings with black upper part and red lower part were the dark sea.

Hu Qing asked in his heart: "Born as a demon?"

Juanbu: "In ancient times, immortals and demons were considered one family."

He was not sure, but it seemed like this from the records. The immortals and demons at that time had a kind of intimacy in which they were always thinking about killing each other's family. It was not like the barriers between the immortal realm and the demon realm were so far apart now.

"So the Bright Sea and the Dark Sea have the same origin, but now they are two powerful factions."

After kneeling for about 20 minutes, Hu Qing quietly asked the boss: "Can we get up now?"

The boss glared at her: "Don't get up if you don't want to be eaten."

Hu Qing didn't dare to challenge the beast, everyone was kneeling. He kept saying in his heart: I will shorten my life by one, one, one...

Finally, I heard the familiar sound of wind coming from the front, flying over my head and disappearing behind my mind. After waiting for a while, the boss stood up with the help of the table, and everyone stood up.

Hu Qing rubbed his knees: "Does the city lord really eat people?"

The boss and other locals all seemed to be very comfortable with it. "Of course we eat. The city lord eats 300 live people every day. They are listed on a menu according to race, age, gender, and cultivation level. Once they are checked, the subordinates will clean them and send them to us. The city lord likes to eat them raw."

Hu Qing: "."

Xuan Yao: "Is there any way to eat it cooked?"

Boss: Yes, the previous city lord liked to eat cooked meat, and he even caught a famous chef to cook it for him. I heard that the meat cooked by the chef was so delicious that you could swallow your tongue, but it's a pity that we don't have that kind of luck.

Slurp, slurp. The boss is also a cannibal.

Hu Qing felt very bad and didn't want to continue the topic of treating her as food at all.

"Boss, we have agreed on a price. You have to give me the best product."

The boss waved his hand and said, "Of course, you can ask around for this area. I'll give you the most affordable price."

I thought, I'm kidding you, you're a first-time sucker, I'd be sorry if I don't make money from you. The best of course goes to the City Lord's Mansion.

Hu Qing certainly knew that he couldn't get the best goods, he was just putting on an attitude.

After they had spent all the money in their pockets, they found a few scrap yards to collect the scraps and then headed towards Fengtu City.

Halfway through the journey, Hu Qing opened the furnace, polished the gems, and engraved formations or runes into them, ensuring that their value would increase a hundredfold.

Xudong gave his opinion, and Hu Qing refined some items that noble women liked. If they were sold well, they would make huge profits. When the time comes, let Shui Xin go to show her face.

Shui Xin and Xuan Yao also refined a lot of pills.

After flying back and forth like this, we finally arrived at Fengtu City.

Fengtu City is not as prosperous as Shucheng, nor as easy to defend as Doujiang City. It looks like an ordinary city. Everyone lined up to enter the city. Once they entered, they saw the riots in the streets. Soldiers in uniform were arresting people, including men, women, young and old. For a moment, they didn't know what the criteria for arresting people were.

Many people stopped at the inside of the city gate in fear and dared not step in.

The soldier guarding the city gate impatiently dispersed the crowd: "Go in, everyone, we are just catching tax evaders, it's none of your business."

Hu Qing almost choked. Tax evasion?

The few cities I visited along the way always gave me different surprises.

I followed the crowd into the city and walked into other streets. I found that there was no unrest, and all businesses were in order and trading was orderly.

So, what's going on?

I heard someone next to me say, "The guy next door was unlucky. He was picked to pay 70% and had to pay the full amount within 15 minutes. He didn't have enough time. Now he's been arrested."

Another person continued: "It's okay to arrest him. He can be locked up for a few days and released after paying the ransom."

"It's not like we don't want to pay. We have to give ourselves time to go home and get the money. If we are locked up, it will affect our business and tax revenue."

"Well, just bear with it. Lord Wang's new wife likes to torment us like this. When Lord Wang gets tired of it and changes his wife, she will naturally let us go."

"Alas, why do Lord Wang's new wives all have such strange quirks? I hope the next Lady Wang won't keep targeting us common people."

Listening to this conversation, Hu Qing even felt like he was in the mortal world. Collecting taxes, sir, madam, and the common people. Is this another cosplay game?

Ah, the Demon Realm is so diverse, and the Immortal Realm is so boring.

"You two should be careful and don't show your faces. What if Lord Wang wants to have it all? I don't want you to be his next wife."

Shui Xin and Xuan Yao: “.” Think about it carefully.

They had to sell the goods first before they could buy the transfer tickets. Shui Xin and Xuan Yao couldn't use face recognition, so the Demon King ordered them to go and clear the way. They quickly found a sales channel and went directly to the big store to discuss business.
