Jiapingguan Chronicle

"From what I hear, he sounds like a very conscientious robber." Shen Zhonghe shook his head helplessly, "This is not a robber. Why are they so worried? Is it because it's their first time here?"

"It should be so. Anyway, when we went there for the first time, we were very worried that something like this would happen. Who knew there would be such robbers!" Liang Jieque sighed softly and said, "We were on this journey. The merchants who often come and go also taught me a lesson, saying that Ubi City is pretty normal, but further northwest, near the desert, there is another city that is even more extreme than Ubi City."

"More exaggerated means..." Shen Zhonghe was puzzled, "There are more robbers?"

"No, they are richer, richer. The people there..." Liang Jieque pointed to his head, "It's even more abnormal, because they are backed by several large gold mines and gem mines, so they Children over there have been receiving gold on a monthly basis since they were born. When those children grow up, they don’t have to worry about money at all. What they worry about is how to spend the money.”

"Sometimes, having more money is not a good thing, right?" Shen Zhonghe curled his lips, "Then what do they usually do?"

"It's the same as Ubi City. Even when doing business in the city or out, the purpose is not to make money, but to have fun. It is said that when they feel particularly bored, they hold various activities in the city. At most, every day Hold an event. If everyone likes this event very much, then fix this event and treat it as a festival. Then every year at this time, they will hold an event to celebrate. In this way, their city will have to celebrate every year There are more than two hundred festivals under various names, and every day is lively.”

"Good guy!" After listening to Liang Jieque's words, Shen Zhonghe couldn't help but sigh, "This is really about finding something for yourself to do, so as not to get bored when you are free." He looked at Liang Jieque curiously. , said, "Is there really such a city?"

"Really." It was not Liang Jieque who answered him, but Xue Ruitian. "That city is called Wuyuan City. The first city lord was actually a monk. Because many gold mines and gem mines were discovered, that city was used for The currency used in transactions is all gold, there is no so-called silver, so it is also called the City without Silver, but the previous city felt that this was too straightforward, so it was changed to the current Yin, which is the city without borders."

"A city without borders?"

"Yes!" Shen Jiu nodded and stretched out. "According to the interpretation of the local people, when they arrive in that city, foreigners will mingle with the locals without any sense of boundaries. There is another one This means that their city will move and cannot find any boundaries; their boundary is the desert."

"This interpretation..." Shen Zhonghe nodded, "It's very interesting."

"You haven't seen it, so you can't feel how wealthy that city is. It's simply inhumane." Shen Jiu blinked and looked at Shen Zhonghe who was looking at him curiously, "Master Shen, are you interested? "

"Yeah!" Shen Zhonghe nodded, "It's nothing, right? It's good to hear it, and you can learn more about it and see if Hu Shang and the people in the Western Regions are all dirty people."

"The dirty ones shouldn't be the people who act as tools, but the people behind them!" Almost everything they use daily is made of gold inlaid with precious stones, even the toilet." "A handsome man like Mr. Shen must not go to that city. If you go, be prepared for the possibility of being stoned to death. People are throwing fruit carts, but in their city they are throwing gold carts. The little girls in the city pick up the gold in sachets and throw it directly to the person they like. If you can avoid it, your life is good. If you can't avoid it, you are lucky. It's possible to get your head smashed all over or your head smashed."

"Is that crazy?"

"That's right!" Shen Jiu nodded and touched his head, "Two years ago, Daxia and Liaojin held a martial arts competition. The place they chose was the desert near Wuyuan City. There were few people there and they would not be attacked. Excuse me, I discussed it with the city lord of Wuyuan City and borrowed a place near them. The city lord of Wuyuan City was very happy. We could finally see people outside, and they were particularly enthusiastic about our reception. Of course, it was only for us, but they were still very happy. Don’t wait to see Liao and Jin.”

"There should be no one in this world who would like to see Liao and Jin. They fight every day, toss every day, and never sit idle." Shen Zhonghe nodded, "What happened next? Which city did you go to?"

"Yes, what I told you is all our personal experience." Xue Ruitian looked at Shen Jiu, "Xiaojiu's head was smashed. Fortunately, he was wearing a helmet at the time, otherwise, his head would have been smashed. .Every day after that was very frightening. You didn’t know when and from which direction one or more purses and sachets would be knocked down.”

"This is indeed a bit crazy. Even normal people can't stand it." Shen Zhonghe shook his head and looked at Xue Ruitian in horror, "Is their daily fun so crazy?"

"Absolutely, because it's not easy for them to see outsiders. Although they do see them every year, they are not many. Therefore, they are very happy to see many outsiders at once, especially the good-looking ones." Xue Ruitian spread his hands, "Those few I have lived a naive life, I have never seen such a heroic person, I have never seen someone who really regards money as dirt."

"It's really like dirt." Shen Jiu let out a long sigh, "I see them sweeping the streets every morning, throwing away gold, jewelry, etc. It's really spectacular."

"So, it's not surprising what people in the Western Region do. They really don't lack money!" It’s just mixed in with interesting things.”

"It seems like this now." Liang Jieque nodded, "On the seventh day we arrived in Ubi City, they arrived late. However, it was a little earlier than the time we agreed. They didn't expect us. They came so early. When they heard that we had brought goods, they didn’t talk about other things first. They wanted to see our goods first. Although there were not many left, they still wanted them. They would wait until the payment was paid. Start talking to us about business."

"Well, what do they want from you this time?"

"Hopefully we can get a special pass from the Navy."
