Han Tie looked at this stone city, which was several times larger than Qingniu Town, with an excited smile on his face. He was finally one step closer to his dream.
Ma Si next to him saw Han Tie's eyes shining with blazing light. He thought it was his first time seeing such a big city. He couldn't help but smile proudly and said: "Brother Han! How about this stone?"
The city is much bigger than your Qingniu Town, right? I have seen cities bigger than this, and I will go out more often if I have the chance."
Han Tie glanced at the proud-looking Ma Si next to him, and did not explain more. He just laughed secretly in his heart. After all, he had never seen a small city like this in the 21st century where tens of millions of people live together.
, at most there are hundreds of thousands or more than 200,000 people. Even in those big cities, it is good to have more than a million people.
Soon, the caravan arrived in front of the city gate, and saw two rows of tall soldiers standing guard on both sides of the city gate. Next to the soldiers, there were several big men in gray clothes sitting there. In front of them, they saw
There was a table set up with a basket beside it, and everyone who entered had to throw one or two coins into it.
Han Tie looked at the scene in front of him with a puzzled expression. When their caravan reached the city gate, the shopkeeper Ma quickly walked up with a smile on his face and greeted the big gray man sitting in front of the table.
The big man in gray clothes seemed to know him too. The two chatted with each other for a few words. Shopkeeper Ma seemed to have given him something, and then the entire caravan was let in.
Han Tie looked at this strange scene with a puzzled look in his eyes. He would understand if those officers and soldiers came to collect city fees, but the man in gray didn't look like a good person and could not be from the government.
After walking into the city gate, Han Tie cautiously asked Ma Si next to him: "Brother Ma! Who were those people who collected city fees just now?".
When Ma Si heard his question, he was so frightened that he quickly looked back. Seeing that he was already far away from the city gate, he whispered: "Brother Han! Don't ask this kind of thing again when no one is around. These people are
It’s something we can’t afford to offend.”
Seeing his cautious look, Han Tie nodded quickly. Ma Si thought that Han Tie would treat him to a drink later, so he leaned his head over and whispered: "These are people from the Stone Gang, the biggest gang in the city. They are also
The subordinate forces of Qixuanmen specialize in helping Qixuanmen collect various resources and money. Remember to stay away from such people if you encounter them in the future. They kill people and do not break the law."
When Han Tie heard Ma Si's explanation, he suddenly looked surprised and couldn't help but asked in a low voice again: "No way! Doesn't the government just care about these things?".
The Spurs showed a trace of ridicule and said with disdain: "The government! In places like ours, it's just a decoration. Several cities near us are controlled by the Qixuanmen. Everything is decided by the Qixuanmen.
In their eyes, the government is just an errand boy."
Ma Si stopped here when he said it. Everyone had arrived at a busy street. Although Han Tie didn't hear what Ma Si said, he probably knew the situation!
I smiled bitterly in my heart. It deserves to be called the world of immortals. This is just the mortal world of warriors. It is already so nakedly cruel. How cruel should the cruel world of immortals be?
When Han Tie thought of this, he became more determined to become stronger. Just as he was thinking about this, a burst of noise suddenly reached his ears.
"Baozi! Big and cheap buns, they cost a penny each. Chaos! Let's eat wontons! A bowl only costs two cents. Candied haws on a stick! Candied haws on a stick! Two skewers only cost one penny."
Waves of calls from small vendors came, and Han Tie came back from his thoughts. He looked in front of him and saw that the whole street was full of people coming and going. I don't know how much livelier it was than Qingniu Town.
times.
Han Tie looked at the ancient commercial street without any excitement on his face. Ma Si next to him originally wanted to see his reaction, but when he saw him looking at the lively market with blank eyes, he thought that Han Tie wanted to invite him.
After drinking, he quickly said to the side: "Brother Han will be arriving soon. There is a small restaurant next to us, and the price is very cheap."
When Han Tie was called like this, he suddenly sobered up. Looking at Ma Si's longing eyes, Han Tie smiled at him and said, "Don't worry, Brother Ma, I'll treat you to a drink later."
Ma Si received Han Tie's guarantee and quickly introduced the Stone City to Han Tie. This Stone City is quite famous in Jingzhou Prefecture. On a stone mountain outside the Stone City, there is a kind of pitch black stone. This stone is extremely
Its tenacity is favored by many dignitaries and is also an important resource. This is where the name Stone City comes from.
The caravan walked very slowly along the way. After all, there were many people. After nearly an hour of driving, the caravan finally arrived in front of a small courtyard.
Shopkeeper Ma walked over from the front with a smile and said: "Brother Han! My mission has been completed. This is Stone City."
Then he looked at Han Tie with a smile. Although he didn't explain clearly, Han Tie also understood what he meant. He quickly smiled at Shopkeeper Ma, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you so much for taking care of Shopkeeper Ma along the way."
Then he took out a tael of silver that he had prepared a long time ago and handed it directly to Shopkeeper Ma. The other party took it without any courtesy, clasped his fists at Han Tie and said, "In that case, let's
Let’s go our separate ways!”.
Then without giving Han Tie any chance to speak, he strode into the small courtyard. Han Tie looked at this scene and smiled helplessly. He also understood what the shopkeeper Ma meant, and was afraid that he would ask him for help again.
After all, Han Tie had just come here and was unfamiliar with the place.
Han Tie smiled indifferently. After all, he is a man with golden fingers. His decades of life in his previous life were not in vain. You must know that as an orphan in his previous life, he was very independent since he was a child.
Han Tie smiled at the anxious Ma Si next to him and said, "Brother Ma! Where is the restaurant you just mentioned, I will go there and wait for you, and I will come over when you are done."
Han Tie looked at Ma Si's troubled face and understood what he meant. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother Ma, I plan to live there for a while! If you need help in the future, don't blame me for disturbing you."
.
As soon as Ma Si heard that he would stay here for a while, he immediately felt relieved. He smiled at him, patted his chest and promised: "Brother Han, don't worry, as long as I, Ma Lao Si, can help, I will never
polite".
Han Tie walked less than 200 meters and saw a small inn. He stood at the door of the inn and looked around. There were quite a few people inside, but they were all ordinary civilians like Ma Si.
Han Tie didn't dislike it at all. This place was just right for him. After all, he was just an ordinary mortal now. If he stayed in those big hotels and met those warriors, he would be in big trouble if he was killed. Of course, the most important thing is
Or he doesn't have enough money. This chapter has been completed!
