Chapter 15 Guang'an House
Two hours later.
The Canglong is anchored and entered the port.
After a month of wandering, Chen Daoxuan finally stepped on the ground.
"Is this Guang'an Mansion?"
Looking at the crowds of people around, Chen Daoxuan couldn't help but say.
"Yes, this is Guang'an Mansion!"
Seeing this most prosperous city within a radius of 100,000 miles, Chen Xianhe couldn't help but feel excited.
In Chen Daoxuan's view, the prosperity of Guang'an Prefecture is more like a coastal city of modern civilization than the ancient society in previous lives.
First of all, this city does not resemble the ancient walls, but is a completely open city.
Secondly, there are too many buildings in the city, one after another, houses, restaurants, inns, and commercial businesses... endless and inconsistent.
Get off the boat.
Chen Daoxuan discovered that on the dock, a group of weirdly dressed mortals were carrying sacks and carrying goods to the treading cloud beast cart without stopping.
They were handcuffed and struggling, and behind every dozen porters, a mortal warrior with a whip in his hands seemed to be guarding them.
Chen Daoxuan's spiritual consciousness swept away.
I found that the sacks contained food.
Chen Xianhe, who was in parallel, followed Chen Daoxuan's gaze and explained: "That was a mortal prisoner of war from Izumo Kingdom. After being bought by some casual cultivators and small families, he acted as a slave."
"Use mortals as slaves?"
Chen Daoxuan has always believed that mortals are just providing cultivators with reproductive tools for seeds of immortal cultivation.
Unexpectedly, there were monks who used mortals as slaves.
As if he saw his doubts, Chen Xianhe smiled and said, "Of course, we monks can do not eat or drink, but ordinary people cannot. In addition to the many monks in their clan, the population of mortals in their clan is extremely large.
Take the Zhou family as an example. The mortal population of their own tribe is tens of millions. Such a huge mortal base can not be maintained by the food produced on Lingbei Island."
Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan instantly understood.
Most of the slaves in the Izumo Kingdom were serfs from the monks of Wanxinghai.
The casual cultivators relied on serfs to reclaim deserted islands and plant food. The immortal cultivator used Weibo spirit stones to exchange for this food to feed the huge population of their clan, and both sides took the needs.
This is also one of the sources for the spiritual stones that are obtained by casual cultivators.
As for why the Chen family on Shuanghu Island did not develop this "industry", Chen Daoxuan glanced at the elderly Thirteenth Uncle and immediately understood the reason.
It’s not that the Chen family is kind-hearted, but that they have no heart and strength, and the number of Chen family monks is too small.
In addition to dealing with family matters, Chen Xianhe also has to protect the safety of the Changping County tribes.
There is no energy to do these "side jobs".
Moreover, most of the mortal prisoners of war in Izumo were warriors. Without monks to suppress them, it was difficult to ensure that these serfs did not rebel or defect.
In addition, the income from ordinary food exchange for spirit stones is too low, which makes it a waste of money.
The Chen family did not develop this industry.
As if he was thinking about something, Chen Daoxuan continued to ask: "These slaves were originally members of some Immortal Cultivation Family in the Izumo Kingdom, right?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xianhe was silent at first, then nodded: "That's right! The war between our Wanxinghai and Izumo Kingdom has been fighting for more than 400 years. Fortunately, we have been on the offensive, so most of the people who suffered were mortals from Izumo Kingdom.
Among these mortals, most men were sold into serfs, while women became tools for the reproduction of major immortals."
With just a few words, Chen Xianhe outlined a cruel world of immortal cultivation for Chen Daoxuan.
There has never been anything good here, there is only a more cruel battle than in the previous life. In order to compete for resources, the monks have more cruel methods than in the previous life.
This is the sorrow of weakness. No matter in the past or this life, there is no difference.
Chen Daoxuan thought to himself.
Seeing that Chen Daoxuan's expression was ugly, Chen Xianhe still did not stop and talk.
As the future patriarch of the Chen family in Shuanghu Island, there are some things he must bear.
I didn't tell him this before, because I was to let him concentrate on learning to refine weapons, and it did not mean that Chen Daoxuan could escape.
"Is it a sin to be weak?"
Chen Xianhe was stunned at first when he heard this, then nodded, and said with certainty: "That's right, in this world, being weak is guilty!"
......
Everyone walked forward.
Chen Xianhe placed his accompanying tribe members behind an inn in Guang'an Mansion.
He took Chen Daoxuan toward the inner city of Guang'an Prefecture.
As they moved towards the inner city, Chen Daoxuan found that the number of monks was increasing. In the end, almost no mortal was seen, and all the monks were attracted to him.
"Although Guang'an Mansion is a city where immortals and mortals live together, monks and mortals do not actually live together. The inner city of Guang'an Mansion we are going to now is the real Guang'an Mansion Immortal City!"
Along the way, Chen Xianhe walked along the way.
really.
As the team continued to move forward, a tall city wall appeared in front of the two of them.
At the city gate.
A monk wearing a green robe with a fiery red spirit bead embroidered on the robe blocked the two of them.
"Stop, please pay the city tax."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xianhe took out two spirit stones from the storage bag and handed them over.
"Get in."
The monks of the Zhou family waved their hands and let the two enter the city gate.
Chen Daoxuan looked back and saw a long line of almost no end to see.
Just stepped into the city gate.
Chen Daoxuan seemed to have entered another world, and the concentration of spiritual energy suddenly soared more than ten times.
"This is......"
Seeing Chen Daoxuan's shocked look, Chen Xianhe around him explained: "This is the spiritual vein! There is a third-level spiritual vein buried underground in the Immortal City of Guang'an Mansion, so we just stepped into the territory and felt that the spiritual energy was impressed."
After looking at the sky, Chen Xian said, "Let's find an inn to stay in first. Every night, the Zhou family monks will clean up the monks who have no right to live in order to prevent the scattered cultivators from coming here to take advantage of the spiritual energy."
House rentals in Guang'anfu Xiancheng are divided into short-term rental and long-term rental.
Short-term rental is an inn, and the general lease period is within one month.
If the lease period is more than one month, monks often choose to rent a cave with the Zhou family, because the price is cheaper than short-term inns.
Due to the abundant spiritual energy of Guang'an Mansion, the price of the inn here is also very touching.
Chen Xianhe and his two only opened two rooms, and the lease period was ten days, and they paid a full 20 spirit stone rent. On average, one person needs one spirit stone a day.
This is just the inn with the lowest concentration of spiritual energy.
It is rumored that Guang'an Immortal Palace also provides four levels of caves: A, B, C and D. The living environment and spiritual concentration of each level of cave is different.
I don’t know what price of spirit stones you need to rent at the highest level of A cave.
certainly.
The monks who can afford to rent a cave at the Ar-level are either children of other immortal cultivation families or casual cultivators with a skill.
