The Jinyiwei who is rampant in another world

Xiao Chen stood in front of the city gate with a depressed expression on his face, Xiao Chen did not expect that the damn imperialism would charge so much to enter the city.The city where Xiao Chen is now is not the city that the miners mentioned. Xiao Chen has actually been to the city they mentioned, but it is not a city at all, it is a small town made of rubble. son.

The so-called market is not actually a street stall set up by a group of people in the open-air square. The things sold are actually some very common souvenirs, some red linen produced by the locals. Of course, they combined the red coarse cloth It is not called sackcloth, but a kind of cheap cloth called Fire Robe. To put it bluntly, it is a kind of civilian cloth. It is very cheap. It only needs ten Fire Bells to make a complete set of clothes for a family of three, but it is cheap after all. The material of Huolobu is extremely poor, and it feels very hard.

In addition to the sought-after goods of commoners like Huo Rob, there are also some expensive things that are necessary for commoners, and that is salt.In the Lava Continent, salt is a rare item and is an official commodity controlled by the Empire.Salt is a rare commodity, but it is also a necessity, and it is something that is controlled by the government. This is destined to be a high-priced and high-margin commodity.

Fine salt is made by the government, and only the government knows how to make this kind of salt, and only the government has the capital to manufacture it in large quantities, and most of it is supplied to the main city, and what the common people use is only roughly processed Coarse salt, these salt processing methods are very simple, and most people can do it, which means that this kind of thing may be smuggled, but everyone defaults to smuggling salt.Most of them had virtually no access to salt, even the crudest kosher salt, if they lived off official salt.

After Xiao Chen walked around those floor shops, Xiao Chen realized that he had lost a lot of money. The finely made salt that Xiao Chen sold in the mine could be sold on the black market for a high price of [-] Huobello per kilogram. At that time, Xiao Chen only earned [-] Huobello, and the salt alone was more than [-] Huobello. Xiao Chen's business was a big loss. [

But Xiao Chen didn't care about money at all, of course until Xiao Chen walked in front of the gate of the main city called Hongfeisi.The city entry tax is 3000 big fire belos, and the ratio of ordinary fire belos is one to one hundred.In other words, [-] Fire Bellos are needed.This seemingly reasonable city entry tax has lasted for [-] years. It is said that the price has been reduced, and the previous city entry tax was even more expensive.But then Yanhuangjue's city was too deserted.It was decided to lower the price to allow more people to enter the city.Let the main city become more lively.

But even if the price was reduced, it definitely exceeded the price that the common people could accept. Entering the main city has become a luxury for all common people.Although this kind of tax only needs to be paid once in a single main city, it is definitely not a price that ordinary people can afford.Moreover, there is something unreasonable about the city entry tax, that is, the city entry tax paid by a main city cannot be used in common with other main cities. When entering the main city, you have to pay the city entry tax again, which is also three hundred big fire belos.

People will be obsessed with wanting to enter the main city. Part of the reason is that they want a superior status. After all, they can enter the main city, which represents a kind of identity. However, it is enough for them to stand upright in some small rural areas, and even live a more nourishing life than some mayors.

But the biggest reason is that in the main city, they can get more and greater opportunities to break away from the ranks of civilians. Not to mention whether there is a chance to get to the royal family, but they can get some opportunities from nobles The chances are definitely higher than those who can't even enter the city. Even if you are an errand servant under those famous families, you are more noble than ordinary civilians. To put it bluntly, you would rather be a noble dog than an inferior person .Although this is a bit harsh, it is very realistic in this empire where the jungle preys on the jungle.

The reason why Xiao Chen wanted to enter the main city was because Xiao Chen had to enter the main city to buy a detailed map of the Lava Continent from the Imperial Library.When Xiao Chen was in the small town before, uh,,,,, it should not be said that it was a small village, when he was shopping at the stalls, he found that no grocery seller had a map.

In the end, Xiao Chen learned from those street vendors that they only had some scattered surrounding maps, and they were not necessarily accurate, because those maps were old maps from a long time ago, except that the terrain basically remained the same. In addition, you don't need to count on those villages that can be marked on the map. In the Lava Continent, villages will change locations frequently in order to avoid encounters with some wild migrating monsters.

Of course, these monsters did not intentionally attack these villages, but because these villages appeared on their migration routes, they flattened those villages inadvertently, and these monsters migrated every once in a while. Moreover, the migration route is uncertain, so the route cannot be predicted at all. Once they collide with them, civilians have no other choice but to retreat.

Xiao Chen only has [-] fire belos in hand, which is far from [-] fire belos. Xiao Chen also thought about using the equipment in the base to refine a large amount of refined salt for sale, but Xiao Chen has no sales channels. By coincidence, he was wanted by the army in the mainland, and he would be imprisoned for selling smuggled salt. The sentence was based on the salt sold, which was very similar to the way drug trafficking was convicted on Earth.

Xiao Chen used to do a gun smuggling mission for a period of time. Although it was smuggling and seemed to be a sneaky thing, Xiao Chen actually walked through the sentries on the border. As for why Xiao Chen could do this The point, of course, is because of the omnipotent network of relationships and money. Since it is smuggling, there will be interests in existence, and the network of relationships involved because of interests must exist.

If Xiao Chen dared to blatantly sell private salt outside, he would definitely be discovered, Xiao Chen had no doubts about this.In fact, the reason is that Xiao Chen can't enter the city, so he can only sell it outside. Those common people don't have much money, Xiao Chen can only sell the salt in his hands cheaply in exchange for the money in the hands of the common people, but in this way, he directly reaches those people. People who sell smuggled salt have direct interests, and those who want to get rid of Xiao Chen will definitely be more enthusiastic by the authorities.Xiao Chen sold refined salt at the price of coarse salt, and the result was predictable.

Although Xiao Chen can stop as long as he sells [-] fire shells, they don't think that they will take Xiao Chen as a thorn in their side and get rid of it quickly.Xiao Chen didn't want to be chased all over the mainland by a group of people as soon as he landed in the mainland. Although Xiao Chen was used to being chased and ran away, he could still avoid it.

Since you can’t make money by illegal means, you can make money by legitimate means. In any part of the world, there will be people who pay people to do things, and in order to facilitate these people, some organizations will emerge as the times require.That's right, that's the mercenary union.

The mercenary union is an ancient organization with a very long history on the Lava Continent. According to legend, it existed earlier than the time when the first Emperor Yan established his empire. The mercenary union is also an important way for ordinary people to break through their status as civilians, no matter what your status is , as long as you have the strength, you can get all the wealth and status. This road is also the best way to increase your strength and win the attention and attention of the royal family.But relatively, huge risks can be avoided. The monsters in the Lava Continent are powerful and violent. The monsters that can get close to strangers 50 meters around them without actively attacking them are considered gentle monsters. This has something to do with the theme element of the continent being the fire element Great relationship.

Fire represents enthusiasm and limitless power, but it also represents strong destructive power and violent character. Among the eight elements, fire element is at the top in terms of destructive power.

Since it is the way for the common people to advance, of course the mercenary union will not only exist in the city. This will directly cut off the hope of the common people who cannot enter the city.In some smaller towns, there will be branches of mercenary unions. Unlike the mercenary unions in Peishui Continent and Fenghua Continent, they will not register your strength, as long as your name and certified blood are enough.

Moreover, mercenaries accepting missions are also level-limited, which means that all missions will be placed together, and they will not classify them except for a little comment on the degree of danger of these missions.

Your strength has nothing to do with the mercenary union. Whether you live or die outside is your own business. As an ordinary person, you have to take on the task of hunting high-level monsters. That is also your own business. The mercenary union only cares Release tasks and pay commissions to those who complete the tasks, and you can figure out the rest. (to be continued...)
