Chapter 2685: Hachinohe(1/2)
I broke through the Immortal Emperor in my previous life and passed by it once again. It has been hundreds of years since then, and I have never been here again.
After so many years, something big must have happened in Tiandu City, otherwise it would not have become like this.
"For today's capital city, under the jurisdiction of the Emperor of Tiandu, has implemented a unified currency system. All merchants, for every ten Tiandu coins collected, must pay one to seek peace. If they do not pay for more than three months, they will be cleared out immediately and will never set foot in Tiandu City."
The shopkeeper sighed helplessly.
He was born in Tiandu City and lived here for generations. Where can he go after leaving Tiandu City? He could only collect Tiandu coins according to the requirements of Emperor Tiandu.
"It's outrageous. This Emperor of Tiandu is too domineering. Tiandu City is the middle area of the Three Thousand Worlds and belongs to the three-no matter zone." ωωw..net
A hint of anger appeared in Liu Wuxie's eyes.
"You can't say that. Since the Emperor of Tiandu unified Tiandu City, the security of Tiandu City has improved a lot, unlike before, which is too chaotic."
The shopkeeper shook his head. Although he had to pay a portion of Tiandu coins every month, he could barely live.
Liu Wuxie deliberately pretended to be angry just now, with the purpose of testing the shopkeeper's view of Emperor Tiandu.
At present, it seems that the indigenous people living in Tiandu City have no complaints about the Emperor Tiandu.
"Shopkeeper, wait, I'll exchange Tiandu coins now."
After basically understanding the situation in Tiandu City, Liu Wuxie plans to exchange some Tiandu coins first to facilitate his next action.
It was also learned from the shopkeeper that the Emperor of Tiandu collected expensive taxes and fees, mainly used to build the Tiandu army and maintain the public order in Tiandu City.
After hearing this, Liu Wuxie just smiled slightly and did not answer.
To build the Tiandu Army, it is not the only one serving the Tiandu Emperor, but it is equivalent to taking the Tiandu coins handed over by everyone and cultivating your own people.
It is definitely not just Liu Wuxie who understands this principle, but no one stands up to oppose it.
It can be imagined that this Emperor Tiandu is indeed not simple.
Leave the inn and walk towards the money house across the street.
The purpose of the money house is mainly to exchange Tiandu coins.
"This young master waited. I just heard that you wanted to exchange Tiandu coins. Just look for me. I will give you a discount. One hundred immortal crystals can be exchanged for ninety-five Tiandu coins."
Before Liu Wuxie could step into the money shop, a sloppy middle-aged man ran over from the left side of the street and called Liu Wuxie.
The man's cultivation level is not low, but he is actually at the first level of the Immortal Emperor.
It is rare to dress in such a sloppy state.
All the monks who can come to Tiandu City are top-level powerhouses.
The indigenous people living in Tiandu City are also extraordinary. Here, there are three thousand elites from the world, and the channels for obtaining resources are very rich.
"Why is one hundred immortal crystals exchanged for ninety-five Tiandu coins?"
Liu Wuxie asked in confusion.
When he entered the city, the Yasha God collected 100 Tiandu coins, but he handed over 100 immortal crystals and exchanged them one to one.
"What do you call a young master?"
The sloppy man smiled bitterly, and it could be seen that it was Liu Wuxie's first time setting foot in Tiandu City.
"Wu Xie?"
Liu Wuxie did not use his real name and continued to use his previous pseudonym.
"It's like this. When you go to the money house to exchange one hundred immortal crystals, you can only exchange them for ninety Tiandu coins. They have to charge 10% of the taxes and fees to pay."
The sloppy man said truthfully.
The shopkeeper mentioned just now that they had to pay one for ten Tiandu coins. Unexpectedly, they also needed to pay for the exchange of Tiandu coins.
"In addition, when going to the money house to exchange, various registrations are required, and the procedures are extremely troublesome. If the young master stays for a short period of time, there is no need to go to the money house."
Hachiho continued.
Liu Wuxie pondered for a moment. If it was really as Bahu said, going to a money house was really troublesome, and registering various information.
Once something happens, he will soon be able to find his origin.
"Why should I believe you?"
After Liu Wuxie finished speaking, he ignored the sloppy man and pretended to walk towards the money shop.
"My name is Bahu, and everyone nearby knows it. Just ask for a little information and ensure that the child is not deceived."
The sloppy man reported his own name, which didn't seem like he was lying.
"Lead the way!"
Liu Wuxie pondered for a moment and said to Hachiho.
For him, it’s the same wherever he exchanges. If he can earn five more, why not?
"Please come with me, Mr. Wu."
After Bahu looked around and confirmed that there was no one, he pulled Liu Wuxie and walked deep into the street.
After walking around for about a small mile, I turned into a broken house.
"Brother, you're back!"
As soon as he stepped into the broken house, a female voice came from the room. A woman in her thirties looked a bit similar to Hachiho.
The moment he saw Liu Wuxie, he looked alert.
"You go into the house first, I have guests."
Yahu signaled his sister to go into the house, and took Liu Wuxie to another dilapidated house.
"Please sit down with Mr. Wu!"
There were only two black chairs in the house, and Liu Wuxie sat on one of them.
"I have other things, hurry up and exchange them."
Liu Wuxie doesn't want to stay in this place for a long time.
He has seen many second-hand dealers like this, but he is simply earning some price difference to survive.
It seems that he gave Liu Wuxie five more coins, but he did not need to pay taxes, which was equivalent to earning Liu Wuxie five immortal crystals in vain.
"Young Master Wu wait?"
After Hachiho finished speaking, he walked to the wall, not knowing what he was digging.
Soon he took out a wooden box and placed it in front of Liu Wuxie.
Open it gently and place more than 100 Tiandu coins inside. Several of them were still stained with blood.
"You should have stolen the coins these days. If you trade them secretly, aren't you afraid that the Emperor of Heaven will discover them?"
Liu Wuxie frowned, and at a glance he could see that these Tiandu coins did not belong to the Bahu.
It is either robbed by robberies or stolen by them, especially the blood on it, which is no more than ten days away from death.
"Don't ask too much about this, it won't prevent you from spending it anyway."
Bahu signaled Liu Wuxie not to worry too much. This kind of thing happened almost every day in Tiandu City, and everyone has long been accustomed to it.
"You are not afraid that I will kill you and rob the coins of these days."
A hint of cruelty appeared in Liu Wuxie's eyes.
With his cultivation level, killing Bahu can be said to be a breeze, and these more than a hundred Tiandu coins are his.
"Young Master Wu, don't joke. Since I dare to bring you here, there must be some means. These are ninety-five Tiandu coins, please keep them."
The Hachiho looked calm and did not panic at all. He carefully clicked out ninety-five Tiandu coins and handed them to Liu Wuxie.
Tiandu coins are roughly similar to ordinary gold coins, but the minting material of Tiandu coins is completely different from ordinary gold coins. It is actually made of rare Tianmu stones.
This small piece of heavenly gold and stone alone is valuable.
"If I'm not mistaken, you get far more than these Tiandu coins and cannot be deposited into the bank through normal channels. You can only exchange them secretly and dilute Tiandu coins. Only in this way can they flow into the market and not be discovered by others."
Liu Wuxie took ninety-five Tiandu coins, took out one hundred immortal crystals, and threw them to Bahu.
Tiandu City also has a black market, and generally one hundred fairy crystals can be exchanged for one or two more than money shops.
If you exchange more than five more pieces like this, there will definitely be an ulterior secret.
Liu Wuxie is now beginning to doubt whether Yahu is his real name.
"The transaction has been completed, Mr. Wu can leave. If the currency cannot be used these days, you come to me again and can use it normally, and forget what happened today."
Yahu signaled that Liu Wuxie could leave.
Liu Wuxie glanced at Bahu meaningfully, walked out of the dilapidated house, and returned to the street.
As soon as he left, the woman in another room ran over quickly.
"Brother, will he inform the Emperor of Tiandu? If someone knows, we will definitely be dead if we steal the Emperor of Tiandu coins."
The woman looked worried.
