Chapter 4: Knowledge of the City and the Conscious Family
Yu Ze did not get an answer to the final question, but he must be unable to compare with his cheap father's attitude.
But that doesn't matter anymore. After all, no matter how powerful it is, it's not the case before.
Nowadays, maybe even he, a young man, can't beat him.
After a brief rest, Yu Shu looked at the sun in the sky, and after estimating the time, he took Yu Ze on the road again.
And this trip took more than an hour. When the sun was at its peak, the two of them came under a magnificent city wall.
Yu Ze couldn't calculate how high the city wall was. He only knew that this meter was not as high as a stone brick on the wall. The stone brick on the wall was almost 20 layers.
I just don't know whether it is used to guard against wild animals or other things.
But before he could think too much, Yu Shu reached out and pulled him, whispered: "Okay, after entering the city, don't look around, so as not to bump into those nobles."
"Also, just talk less. Don't force yourself to make a fuss when you encounter unfair things. Just follow me and leave immediately after you finish your business."
Yu Shu said this sentence very seriously, which made Yu Ze think of the word "savage" he mentioned before. It seems that these savages seem to have a very humble position in this mansion.
And his subsequent insights made him confirm this fact even more.
When queuing to the city, because there was no road guide, each of them had to hand in five times the amount of money to enter the city, which was five large copper coins, and even the newborn baby was not spared.
In addition, the three of them had to press their handprints and were warned that they had to leave the city before it was dark, otherwise they would be regarded as criminals and would be directly demoted to slaves if they were caught.
If there is any resistance, you can also be executed on the spot.
This is simply putting discriminatory savages on the table.
But even if it was treated so unequally, the other savages didn't say anything, and they all lined up to pay the money to the city, without even a single noisy one.
Guiyin: After stepping into the city gate, there are barracks on both sides. If someone makes trouble at the city gate, what is the difference between seeking death?
What shocked Yu Ze even more was that when they passed by the barracks, a flying arrow flew out from the left and stuck on the animal skin on the back of a person who was dressed similarly to them in front.
Although the person was not injured, if there was an extra hole in the fur, the value would be greatly reduced.
However, even though he suffered such losses, the man didn't say much, but instead accelerated his pace and wanted to leave the area as soon as possible.
And Yu Shu's approach is the same.
No one cares about who shot the arrow, nor does anyone care about what would happen if the arrow hit the person.
When he left the barracks area, Yu Ze could no longer suppress his thoughts and asked in a low voice: "Dad, will you ever encounter such a thing when you came here before?"
"What if that arrow shot to death?"
Yu Shu did not hide this. After slowing down, he said: "This kind of thing is to vent some unsatisfactory cultivators with us. It is not too common. When you come in the future, just pay more attention to both sides."
"As for death, I can only admit that I am unlucky. This is not a village, and no one will stand out for us."
The simple words are endless hardships, which makes Yu Ze even more sure of the fact that the savages have no human rights. But why can those people recognize them as savages?
......
After passing the barracks, I arrived at a market where I could see rice shops and butchers.
It was already noon at this time, and the rice shop had no business, but the wine shop was full of people. After careful observation, Yu Ze really discovered the difference between the savages and the people in the mansion.
The answer lies in the clothes.
Although these savages were not wearing animal skins, they were all wearing robes. As for the city, they were wearing garments of various colors.
After telling the cheap father about this discovery, he was indeed confirmed by him.
And there was even worse news, that is, the cloth shop in the mansion was forbidden by the government to sell common clothes to savages for easy distinction.
This is discrimination from the government level.
For Yu Ze, it is simply the worst news.
It means that if nothing unexpected happens, even if he finds business opportunities in the mansion, he will not be able to make a fortune. With his identity as a savage, no matter how rich he is, he will be at the mercy of others.
Unless you can find an inconspicuous business, but you can get a lot of money.
But I am not a business genius, so how could I find such a business? I can only take one step at a time.
While thinking, Yu Ze's steps did not slow down. Soon, he followed his father to an inconspicuous shop.
As soon as he entered here, he was surprised. He didn't expect that there were so many people here at this time, and looking around, almost all of them were savages in maroon.
At this time, Yu Shu explained in a low voice: "This shop is dedicated to our savage business, including fur, raw meat, musk, animal horns, and animal tendons. They collect everything."
"And after selling them the things, we can also buy rice salt and ironware from here, as well as the sheep we need that can produce milk."
"This saves us from dealing with other people, so as not to betrayal."
"As for the price, it's barely fair."
Having said this, Yu Shu didn't wait for Yu Ze to ask a question. Seeing that a shopkeeper had just had free time, he hurriedly came forward.
After some negotiations, all the goods brought were replaced with rice and salt, and fifty large copper coins.
But, what about the sheep?
Yu Ze was just puzzled when he saw Yu Shu take out a small jar from under the basket and hand it to the shopkeeper. He noticed that the shopkeeper's eyes lit up after he took the fur on it.
He quickly stretched out his little finger and dug out some sticky things into it and put them into his mouth.
Yipin nodded suddenly and praised: "Good thing, good quality, well, you want a goat that can only produce milk, right? No problem, if you hold this wooden sign and stay outside the city for a while, someone will hand the sheep to you."
"There is still this good thing next time, I will take it to me directly, and it is easy to say anything you need."
Yu Shu had no objection to this. After taking the wooden sign, he took Yu Ze away from the shop, as if he was not worried about being deceived.
Afterwards, he did not stay in the palace and directly took Yu Ze's original road back. After confirming his departure at the city gate, a young man in gray cloth came up with a sheep.
After confirming his identity, he took the wooden sign and handed the goat to Yu Shu. The shopkeeper was indeed trustworthy.
The food for her young wife was finally settled.
