Zhongzhou has a vast territory and is the largest state in the Southwest Region. It is extremely prosperous. The Chen family has been in Zhongzhou for 100,000 years and has always been the number one royal family in the Southwest Region.
In the human race territory, the force structure is very complex. There is no direct leadership structure like a dynasty, and it is relatively loose.
Each major state and each prefecture below the state has great autonomy. Although there is also a subordinate relationship, it is relatively vague.
However, in legal terms, the Chen royal family is the king of the Southwest Region. They have the canonization from the royal palace of the Central Region people, and there is no doubt that they are orthodox.
Of course, no matter where you are on the mainland, if you want to maintain the situation, you cannot rely solely on the so-called orthodoxy. These days, there are so many rebellious officials and traitors, not to mention the relative autonomy of all human races. To maintain your status, you can only rely on strength!
Since the Chen royal family took control of the Southwest Zhongzhou, they have always firmly controlled the Three Emperors Martial Temple.
The Martial Arts Temple is directly subordinate to the upper and lower levels, going down one level. The Three Emperors Martial Temple is the only Martial Temple in the great region that worships the Three Emperors. The other Martial Arts Temples only worship the Human Emperor.
The power of the Three Emperors Martial Arts Temple directly affects other lower-level martial arts temples. Controlling the Three Emperors Martial Arts Temple is equivalent to all the martial arts temples in the entire southwest region being under the control of the Chen family.
With the orthodox canonization, strong strength and foundation, and the control of the Three Emperors Martial Temple, the Chen family’s ruling power is not weak!
Therefore, in the southwest region, almost all major decision-making policies come from the Chen royal family. Even the rulers of other super-states must obey the orders of Zhongzhou.
For example, the previous battle between Mu Tianyin Xuezhou and the evil heretics was led by the Chen family, and the subsequent formation of the Righteous Alliance was also led by the Chen family.
And with such a force in charge, outsiders basically don't dare to cause trouble when entering Zhongzhou. No matter what their background, they don't dare to mess around.
In addition, Zhongzhou is very large, and in addition to the Chen royal family, there are several other giant forces rooted here.
Although they do not each control a super-large state like other giant forces, their strength is not inferior to them, or even stronger.
Zhongzhou is full of outstanding people, countless caves and blessed places, ancient monasteries, and ancient ruins. After all, it is not comparable to ordinary super states!
For example, Ji Hanche, whom I met in the Sea of Bitterness before, was the daughter of the Ji family of Fengtian City in Zhongzhou, and the power of Fengtian City was ranked among the best in Zhongzhou, no worse than the giant power!
The power of one city is comparable to that of a super large state, and the prosperity of Zhongzhou can be imagined.
In addition to the top wealthy families and sects, the southwest headquarters of the Ten Thousand Merchants Alliance is also located in Zhongzhou, which is a giant force across the continent.
In addition, there are several unusual areas, such as Medicine City, which is a holy land for pharmacists. The elixirs produced here are the best in the entire Southwest!
As for elixirs, it can be said that they are the lifeblood of a warrior's cultivation. Although the elixir capital is not guarded by an extremely powerful person, and its strength is not as good as those giant forces, its influence is huge.
No one dares to make mistakes in medicine.
Furthermore, for example, the Hidden Soldier Valley, the holy land of blacksmiths, is a similar place to Medicine Capital, and its influence is beyond imagination!
There are also Huadu, a prosperous place, the largest gold-selling cave in the entire southwest region, a wine pool and a meat forest, a feast of flowers, and any enjoyment items that are only imaginable and impossible to do.
A day's turnover here is comparable to a month's revenue of a giant force. This concept is terrifying!
Of course, the reason why these places can still develop to such a huge extent without strong people in charge is because the interests involved are extremely complicated, and each family has benefits from it. It is even said that who has the biggest share?
Unclear.
Therefore, everyone has a tacit understanding to maintain the continued prosperity of these important places!
After all, everyone is happy when we make money together.
And Lin Chen and the others’ destination this time is Huadu!
Huadu is a city of extreme luxury and luxury. Every inch of land is precious, and the level of luxury here exceeds that of any other city in the entire southwest region.
Even the Wentian City of the Chen royal family is not as good as it is.
In the city, there is entertainment everywhere, and here, the joy of the body and soul is enough for people to forget all their worries, and then spend all their savings in it until they are completely drained.
I don't know how many nobles and big shots who spend money like water in their respective territories come to this flower capital to enjoy themselves, thinking that they can dominate and prosper, but they find that here, they are no different from beggars.
After staying for a few days, all the money was spent, and in the end I was kicked out directly.
"Fairy Linglong is a well-known figure in Huadu. She is the second most beautiful person in Huadu. Even the pictures of human beauties are in the top ten!" Mei Xiaoxiao introduced with a smile.
She had heard the name of Fairy Linglong for a long time, but she had never seen her true appearance. Even though she was a woman, she still wanted to see this woman with extraordinary beauty.
I want to see how beautiful it is!
In fact, not only men, but women also like to look at beautiful women. They are pleasing to the eye, who wouldn’t want to?
"Why are there so many lists?" Lin Chen laughed.
"That's Huadu. There are some guys with money and leisure who are self-righteous and like to rank beauties in specific positions. Of course, this is what Huadu likes the most. After all, with the list, there is no need to be soft when collecting money."
, Mei Xiaoxiao said.
"By the way, I'm telling you, someone paid for me to see Fairy Linglong before. Don't get me wrong, it's really a meeting, a glimpse of her beauty, and nothing else. It cost three billion spiritual crystals!"
"..." The corner of Lin Chen's mouth twitched. What does this woman do? It's too expensive, right? It's a sky-high price of three billion just by looking at her?
What should I do with this money?
Moreover, some people really spend this money to see Fairy Linglong. Is it really too much money?
Lin Chen felt a little depressed for a moment and said, "What about it? I don't have so much money."
It's not like Lin Chen can't afford three billion, but it's really not worthwhile to spend so much money just to meet Fairy Linglong.
How could Lin Chen be so extravagant and wasteful?
"There's nothing we can do about it. Huadu only recognizes money, not people." Mei Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and smiled, then raised her eyebrows, "But aren't you very good at hiding? You can just steal people."
The word "stealing" sounds too ugly.
Lin Chen cursed in his heart, but Mei Xiaoxiao was right. He didn't want to waste the money and just used the power of the black dragon to sneak in secretly.
Although it was a bit obscene to peek into a woman's boudoir, Lin Chen didn't care about it in order to solve the problem of the female ghost.
"The famous Fairy Linglong is only the second in the beauty spectrum, so who is the first?" Lin Chen asked curiously.
This is the benefit of the list. As long as someone is curious, the money will continue to flow. If someone is dissatisfied with the list, even better, they will make a lot of money!
"The number one in the Qunfang Pavilion is the owner of the Qunfang Pavilion. She was also the former top courtesan and one of the four beauties of the human race, Shen Shaohua," Mei Xiaoxiao said with eyes filled with little stars.
That is a legendary beauty!
"Ouch, Shen Shaohua, all frogs know that that guy is so beautiful that even my swans are not as beautiful as him!" he said with a pig-like look on his face.
He immediately reacted and said quickly: "Ahem, don't talk nonsense when you meet my swan in the future. In my heart, my swan is still the most beautiful!"
"Have you seen that shy flower?" Lin Chen said.
"The four beauties of the human race have gone through several rounds. Some are on the list, and some are off the list. After all, a new generation replaces the old ones. However, Shen Shame Flower has been in the Qunfang Pavilion as an oiran in Huadu three thousand years ago, and her beauty has shocked the world. , directly entered the third place in the beauty picture, and never left the list again," Guagua said.
She is truly a legendary beauty, and Lin Chen also wants to see her beauty.
However, Fairy Linglong is already ridiculously expensive, not to mention that one of the four beauties would probably spend all her money to never even see her.
"Master Shen is not just a beauty. What matches her beauty is her incomparable strength. Although she has not appeared in the world for a long time, the last time she appeared, she had already crossed the five or six hurdles of asking God!" Mei Xiaoxiao said.
Shen Shamehua is definitely a strong woman. She can run the Qunfang Pavilion in a place like Huadu, and can travel among the major powers without touching her body. This is something that cannot be achieved just by being beautiful.
After all, beauty itself is a kind of danger. For those powerful beings, who doesn’t want to have beauties like those in the beauty spectrum or beauty pictures?
That can prove your strength and status better than any dazzling record!
But Shen Shamehua never attached herself to anyone, which shows her amazing talent.
"Well, it's no wonder that Huadu has become the largest gold-selling cave in the southwest. The beauty alone is already desirable." Lin Chen sighed.
Fairy Linglong and Master Shen are enough to attract people from all over the world, not to mention there are countless beauties.
Mei Xiaoxiao nodded with deep sympathy, she really wanted to take a look.
"Anyway, let's find a place to stay first, and then see if there is a chance to get close to Fairy Linglong," Mei Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
"But when we enter Huadu, we must be careful. Anyone we meet there may have a huge origin. Don't mess around!"
Lin Chen nodded, he also understood this.
Huadu is a mixed bag, with people from all three religions and nine streams. Even the powerful and core members of the Chen family, as well as many giant forces, may appear in Huadu.
Lin Chen must also be cautious!
In this way, there was no words all the way, and finally the treasure ship entered the Huadu Sky Pier, and the prosperity that he saw shocked even Lin Chen.
Even the Sky Pier is beautifully designed and many building materials could be used to build a palace outside, but here, they are ordinary.
Even the air is always filled with the fragrance of ambergris. This spice can assist in cultivation and warm the mind. It is very expensive!
But here, it is spread all over the city, and the level of luxury is evident!
Huadu is extremely lively with people coming and going. The flow of people every day is huge. There are no less than a hundred treasure ships moored with Lin Chen and others.
Except during wartime, almost no city has such throughput!
Lin Chen looked around. These people came from all over the southwest. Some were regulars, but more were newcomers, and they were looking at everything around them curiously.
They probably don’t know that maybe by tomorrow, half of them will have exhausted all their wealth and will be penniless!
In addition, Lin Chen noticed that there were people from outside the region arriving, and there were quite a few of them. It seemed that this flower city was famous even outside the Southwest Region!
As the flow of people moved forward, Lin Chen and the others came to the ground, where the extremely bustling streets were full of feasting and feasting. Every shop was of high standard. Country people really didn't dare to enter anywhere when they came here.
"With so many people, this is a lot more lively than before." Mei Xiaoxiao put her hands behind her back and hummed a ditty as she moved forward.
