Take charge of Ascension

Chapter 83

As the largest city within a radius of a hundred miles, Sifang City is close to a pier, and it is full of people every day.

Merchants traveling from south to north, from within Divine Turtle Island, and from outside Divine Turtle Island, all used Sifang City as a transit point, so Sifang City became a commercial center.

Under Luo Qiushui's guidance, Zhao Ji took a turn in Sifang City, and immediately felt the commercial atmosphere rushing towards his face.

"This Sifang City is really lively, and the business atmosphere is very strong."

Zhao Ji sighed in his heart, and said with emotion.

"Yes, Sifang City is very prosperous, a large part of which is due to its geographical location."

Luo Qiushui said sharply.

After walking around Sifang City in the morning, Zhao Ji found that this place really deserves to be a commercial city, and there are really countless shops selling things.He has no doubt that as long as there are things in this world, they can basically be bought in the city.

In addition, Zhao Ji also discovered that Sifang City's control over force is very lax, and in many blacksmith shops, not only ordinary swords, but eighteen kinds of weapons and some strange weapons can be seen.

Moreover, among the passers-by on the street, there are quite a few warriors carrying knives and swords, there are many first-rate warriors, there are many third-rate warriors, and there are also many second-rate warriors.

Fortunately, although there are many warriors, the guards in the city are still relatively strong. When encountering warriors fighting in the street, they can be suppressed.

In the morning, Zhao Ji saw three or four incidents, several warriors disagreed with each other, drew their swords to face each other, and fought violently, threatening people's lives.However, when the guards brought people over, those people dragged their knives and left without saying a word, and the guards didn't intend to chase them.

"Miss Luo, the law and order in the city don't seem to be good."

Seeing this farce-like scene, Zhao Ji couldn't help laughing.

"Father said that warriors are like this. They are full of blood, brave and ruthless, but if something goes wrong, they may fight to the death. Sifang City is not bad. Although there are people fighting from time to time, no one dares to go too far. Once the guards When they come over, they will disperse, and there are very few deaths."

Luo Qiushui eagerly explained that he didn't want Sifang City to leave a bad impression in Zhao Ji's heart.

While nodding, Zhao Ji asked another question, "Those guards don't seem to be too strong in cultivation, how could they be able to suppress those angry warriors and make them retreat willingly."

The members of the guard team are just some first-rate warriors, and there are relatively few third-rate warriors. There are only two or three members in the first team, and the team leader is only a fourth-level cultivation base, and his strength is really not strong.

Once, the two fighters that Zhao Ji saw were second-rate fighters. When they encountered these guards, they turned around and walked away. It was a bit strange.

"Brother Zhao, you don't know that the guardian force of Sifang City is very tyrannical. Except for the innately strong, no one dares to cause trouble in the city."

Luo Qiushui smiled complacently, and said with great confidence: "The guards patrolling on the surface are just the worst guards in the city. The real power is hidden in the dark. There may even be five tigers around us Many times, they will also help the guards to suppress those who make trouble."

When Luo Qiushui said this, Zhao Ji knew that he was wrong. The power of Sifang City is a colossal monster. Ordinary Houtian warriors would not dare to provoke at will.Once a certain big shot in Sifang City takes it seriously, even a top-notch expert might not even think about getting out of the city alive.

"By the way, what happened to the Five Tigers?"

Zhao Ji asked with interest.

"The Five Tigers Gang is a gang in Sifang City. It is equivalent to a semi-underground force. It controls many gambling houses, brothels and martial arts halls in the city. It is extremely powerful and not much weaker than the five major families."

Concentrating for a while, Luo Qiushui revealed a little disgust, and said with disgust: "The Gang of Five Tigers has a very famous martial arts called Five Tigers Breaking the River Knife. Broken rivers, but I guess it's just nonsense."

It can be seen that Luo Qiushui is quite disgusted with the Five Tigers Gang, and the inclination is very obvious in his words, but he can also know the power of the Five Tigers Gang.

Such a mafia-like gang must have many enemies and arouse the hostility of many people. Luo Qiushui is one of them, but it has been able to stand until now, which is definitely not easy.

Moreover, from Luo Qiushui's words, Zhao Ji also guessed some other information. When someone makes trouble in Sifang City, the Five Tigers will help to suppress it. Maybe it is to maintain the order of Sifang City, but other than that There may not be no connection with the five major families.

The more he understands, Zhao Ji knows that the pool of water in Sifang City is probably very deep, and the difference between light and darkness is not so clear.

"Miss Luo, I feel a little hungry, let's find a place to get something to eat."

The wise light in his eyes flashed away, and Zhao Ji changed the topic with a smile.

"Ah, yes, it's already noon."

With Zhao Ji's reminder, Luo Qiushui looked up at the sky, saw the sun was in the middle of the sky, it was already noon, and then he suddenly realized.

"Brother Zhao, let's go, I'll take you to a place where you can taste the delicacies of Sifang City."

"Okay then, let's go."

Smacking, smacking his mouth, Zhao Ji made a greedy look.

So, Zhao Ji and Luo Qiushui went straight to the center of Sifang City, where there was a five-story building.

The five-storey building is the tallest building in Sifang City. Originally, Zhao Ji thought it was the City Lord's Mansion, but unexpectedly, it was a restaurant—Wanghai Tower.

"Hey, isn't this Miss Luo's family? Please hurry up, Miss Luo. Do you still want to go to the fifth floor?"

As soon as the two entered Wanghai Tower, Luo Qiushui was immediately recognized, and a junior waited eagerly, with a very polite attitude, which can be said to be flattering.

"Brother Zhao, what do you think, which floor are we dining on?"

Luo Qiushui asked.

Zhao Ji smiled faintly: "I'm not familiar with this place, everything is up to you."

"Well, let's go to the fifth floor. There is a wide view. Not only can you see the whole Sifang City, but you can also faintly see the sea."

Luo Qiushui was also polite and made a decision directly.

Climbing up the stairs, at the same time, Zhao Ji looked at the Guanhai Building, and it can be seen that the restaurant occupies an extremely wide area, and the distribution of floors and floors is very reasonable.

The first and second floors are common public seats, the big Eight Immortals table, which can seat many people on the first floor; the third and fourth floors are private rooms, and the inside is invisible. From the outside, It has a sense of understated luxury.
