Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord
Chapter 304
"This is Tengying City? It's not bad." Liu Feng said lightly.
He stood at the gate of Tengying City, looking at the six-meter-high stone city wall in front of him, which was not a little bit stronger than Xiyang City, and much stronger than the earthen city wall of Xiyang City.
This made him decide to demolish the earthen city wall of Xiyang City in the spring of next year. The dilapidated earthen city wall affects the appearance of a city too much. He wants to build a tall concrete city wall.
"This..." Nicole was surprised. This city wall is more beautiful than Xiyang City. Although the port is not as good, now she is curious about what the city looks like.
Mina had already prepared herself, so she was not surprised at all. She had been to many cities, and the embarrassing place in Xiyang City was really the earthen city wall, which was much worse than other cities.
"Let's go, let's go into the city and have a look." Liu Feng walked towards Tengying City, and only entered Tengying City after each person paid a copper coin.
"It stinks!" Nicole covered her nose as soon as she entered Tengying City, looking at the dirty and muddy ground all around. This scene is too familiar, isn't it what Xiyang City looked like a few months ago?
"Xin Ke, send someone to ask where the biggest and best restaurant in the city is." Liu Feng ordered.
"Yes." Sink replied, calling number five's name.
Soon, No. 5 came back, bringing the news Liu Feng wanted, "My lord, the best restaurant in Tengying City is in the center of the city."
"Lead the way, go and stay first." Liu Feng waved.
"Yes." Number Five led the way.
Liu Feng and the others looked at Tengying City as they walked. The low stone and wooden houses, or houses with earthen walls, except for the main city road which is a bit wider, are all small lanes and alleys, and the layout is even more messy. There is no Xiyang City at all. The planning is neat, not to mention the ground, which is full of muddy dirt roads, which are covered with mud when you step down. If you walk a bit out of the way, you may even step on feces.
"..." Nicole was disappointed. Now she fully understands why Catherine said that to her yesterday. This Tengying City is almost the same as Xiyang City a few months ago, just as messy.
Moreover, there are many slave buyers and sellers along the street, all skinny, with little clothes, shrunk from the cold, numbly looking at the passers-by, hoping that someone will buy them.
In addition to slaves, there are also many beggars, who are holding broken bowls and half bowing their waists to beg.
Many beggars among them are disabled, leaning against the cold wall for support, begging to look at the passers-by, hoping to reward them with a copper coin.
Nicole lowered her head, and couldn't bear to look at those slaves and beggars, because she couldn't help anything. After seeing it, she panicked. At least they don't buy and sell slaves on the street, and there are so many beggars.
Liu Feng reached out and rubbed Nicole's head, pursed his lips slightly, and looked up at the gloomy sky. The cruel scene in front of him was the real look of this era.
Chapter 0359 the treasure of 'God's Heaven'.
In Tengying Castle.
Earl Tengger is receiving guests. It is Earl Puli, who is also an earl. The two meet in the living room.
"Your Excellency Puli, you came so early." Earl Tenger greeted with a smile; but he thought in his heart, this old fox is really well informed, and he got the news even at such a distance.
"As soon as I heard that Your Excellency Tengger had the treasure about the 'Kingdom of Gods', I rushed over immediately." Earl Puli said with a smile, thinking in his heart, this stingy old man, wouldn't he give false news?
"Come, please sit down." Earl Tengger smiled, and did not answer Earl Puli's words, and sat on the main seat first.
"Please." Earl Puli was not in a hurry, and sat down leisurely. He was not inferior to anyone in terms of raising energy.
"Your Excellency Puli, how is your health recently? Has the income from the territory doubled again?" Earl Tengger said, rambling on and on.
"Well, it's fine to live for another few decades." Earl Puli narrowed his eyes, thinking that this miserly old man would really come to trouble.
Just like that, the two chattered, and when they got thirsty, they stared at each other. Neither of them admitted defeat. This was a confrontation between the older generation of nobles.
Back then, the two had a good relationship, and they wandered around the royal capital together. Later, the two pursued a woman at the same time. In the end, that woman was snatched home by a certain duke. .
Later, there were business exchanges between the two cities, and the two slowly began to talk again. After all, no one would have trouble with gold coins.
"Hmph, you're still so stingy. After sitting for so long, you don't even have a drink. It's almost the same as when you went to 'play' together. After the 'play', you either didn't bring coins, or you were going to shit and sneak." Earl Puli snorted coldly.
"Who, who sneaked away? I just went home to get the coins." Earl Tenger's eyes widened, his cheeks flushed.
"Come on, your reputation as Earl Tengger is still circulating in the romantic place of the king's capital. The legend that you 'play' with women without coins." Earl Puli said indifferently.
"I, you..." Count Tengger blushed, looked at the maids and knights who were standing beside them and laughed loudly, "Get out, get out."
"Tat Tat Tat..."
The maids and knights immediately left the living room in fear.
"Huh..." Count Tengger took a deep breath and immediately regained his composure.
It was because of the joke he made when he was young that he didn't dare to go to the capital for a few years, for fear of embarrassment. Some familiar nobles often made fun of him for this.
"Tell me, what kind of treasure do you have in the 'God's Kingdom'? Or is it a lie?" Earl Puli said indifferently.
"Cheat? How is this possible." Earl Tenger sneered.
"What exactly is that?" Earl Puli sat up straight, his eyes widened slightly, and asked in a deep voice, "You have to tell me a general idea."
"The other nobles will arrive tomorrow at the latest, and you will know when the auction is held tomorrow night."
Earl Tengger didn't let go, and said flatly, "You just need to prepare the price with gold coins, and you won't be disappointed anyway."
"Hey..." Earl Puli snorted and sneered, "Stop playing such little tricks, tell me quickly, what is it? I can estimate whether I have enough gold coins."
"This..." Earl Tengger hesitated, looked around, stepped forward slightly, and said in a low voice, "Amos' notes."
"What?" Earl Puli stood up abruptly, his eyes widened, he looked at Earl Teng in shock, his mouth opened wide, and shouted, "Old miser, are you joking?"
"Old miser???" Earl Teng's eyes widened and he roared angrily, "You old fox, believe it or not!"
"Uh..." Earl Puli was stunned for a moment before he realized that he had made a slip of the tongue and actually called out the title he was swearing in private.
"Don't pay attention to these little things. What you said is true? Is it really Amos's notes?" Earl Puli stepped forward and said nervously, "You should know that this matter is not a joke."
"Of course it is true." Earl Tengger raised his head and said proudly, "I have verified it, it is definitely Amos' notes."
"..." Earl Puli sat back in his chair silently after listening, frowning and pondering, thinking about the deeds of Amos' notes.
Amos is the grand knight of the extinct Mancha Kingdom, that is, a grand duke. He is very legendary; he was a knight genius since he was a child. Great knight of the kingdom.
The next year, he took the order of the old King Mancha and led five hundred royal knights into the confinement mountains to find the location of the "God's Heaven": Mount Olympus.
This trip lasted for three years, and during these three years, the old King Mancha could not wait for the news of Amos, and died in the second year. The old king died, and the new king came to power, and the rebellion followed. .
The Kingdom of Mancha split into today's Mulin Principality, Maner Principality and Chama Principality, but this process took thirty years.
In the third year, the great knight Amos came out of the confinement mountain range by himself. When he was discovered, he was already insane, chanting: I have found the 'God's Heaven'.
Before anyone could ask any further questions, Amos passed away, leaving only his travel notes, a total of 72 parchment books, which are called Amos Notes by the world.
How precious Amos's notes are, you can know just thinking about the three words "God's Heavenly Kingdom". I won't talk about the bloody storm that happened that year.
In the end, Amos Notes disappeared during the scramble, and no one knew who hid them. This disappearance lasted for thirty years, and it appeared several times during the period, each time causing great turmoil.
