Jianghai, the largest city in Jiangsu Province, but not the provincial government, the reason why it will become the largest city, is entirely because of its unique geographical location, riverside and seaside, and deep-water port. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As Wang Tong felt before, this is a plausible world, because the previous eighteen years of experience were all in Dongyang City, and he was dedicated to martial arts, he wanted to inherit the Yongwu Pavilion, which was regarded as a two-eared affair outside the window, and only knew how to practice martial arts, so he didn't know much about things outside Dongyang City, but Huo Zhengliang was different, he was an official of the previous dynasty, full of poetry and books, and believed in the belief that he knew the world without going out, plus he was an official in many places all his life, and he knew much more about this world than Wang Tong, after his explanation, Wang Tong's doubts in his heart were deeperBecause the history of this world is too similar to the history of his first life, and it is very different, too specious.

The stage that this world is in now is indeed similar to the world at the beginning of the twentieth century, and even China, the former dynasty has just been forced to abdicate, and it is the prime minister of the previous dynasty who is forced to abdicate, and the prime minister did not call himself emperor, but rebuilt the republic, and established a new form of government, of course, this new form of government was not created by the prime minister, but with reference to the political system of another powerful country overseas, but unfortunately, this strongman did not take a holiday, and died of illness in the second year after the establishment of the new government, and some of his original generals also fell into a melee because of the struggle for power, to put it bluntly, now the country where he is has become a place of warlord melee, if you want to say that this world is better than the Republic of China, that is, compared to the Republic of China, the country's resources are much richer, coupled with the relationship between many civilian warriors, the army here is not as divided into soldiers and bandits as in the previous life when the Chinese warlords were in the melee, because of the existence of warriors, unless it is a positive army, otherwise, once it becomes a bandit, it will be exterminated by local forces, which is also the norm in this world, whenever the political situation falls into chaosUnder the strong intervention of the local warriors, the situation of the whole country will not be so chaotic, and of course, it is impossible to develop the economy.

Jianghai City is a special place, since the opening of the port three hundred years ago, has gradually become the southeast trade center and economic center, there are a large number of merchant ships on the wharf every day, south to north, the goods of the ocean-going countries have to be transported to the mainland through here, and all kinds of materials on the mainland will also pass through here, transported to the ocean-going countries, its status, similar to the magic capital of his previous life, but different from the magic capital, the municipal institutions of Jianghai City are simply the same as the fictitious, this pattern is slowly formed after the decline of the previous dynasty, the real control of Jianghai City is a huge merchant alliance, in this merchant alliance has its own army, has its own police system, and even has its own tax agency, which only pays a limited amount of taxes to the government symbolically every year, and the rest is operated independently, which reminds Wang Tong of the Ministry of Industry Bureau in the magic capital back then, but compared to the Ministry of Industry Bureau, the power and power of the merchant alliance are much greater, and they completely control the entire Jianghai City.

Of course, what really makes Jianghai City qualified to form a country within a country is because Jianghai City has a grandmaster-level martial artist, which is the capital for Jianghai City to be able to settle down.

Martial artists, in this world, the status is actually not high, and ordinary people are no different, but the great grandmaster-level martial artists are not among them, the essence of any world is the same, the weak eat the strong, the strong can always obtain a higher status, the status of the cultivators of the heavens of the fairy realm is so high, is because they are much stronger than ordinary people, everyone is ten thousand enemies, even tens of thousands of enemies, hundreds of thousands of enemies, one person is equivalent to countless in the army, which gave birth to such a lofty status, but in this world it is obviously impossible, although the martial artist is strong, but the strength is limited, however, the real top martial artist can also be used as an army, Even in the siege of thousands of troops, they can't help them, but the number of such warriors is too small, and they can't form a scale at all, so the status of warriors is not so high.

However, although this great master of Jianghai City can't really be used as a thousand troops, but it is enough to suppress a place, even if the government launches a large army, he can't help him, if he really tears his face, even if the government takes down Jianghai City, it will become a ruin, not only will he lose a lot of taxes, but he will also lose a lot of money, and finally the ruler will face the retaliation of a great grandmaster, you know, once the great grandmaster is unrestrained and lets go of his hands and feet, the damage that can be caused can almost be called devastating, so several great masters in this world have an extremely prominent positionOn the one hand, this status is a courtesy given to them, but on the other hand, it is not a rope used to tie their hands and feet, so that they cannot really do what they want.

"Great Grandmaster, it's really interesting, the power system of this world is completely different from the Immortal Realm Heavens, if you don't try it yourself, I'm afraid you can't figure out what realm this Great Grandmaster is, but this Wan Tiancheng is more than one hundred and thirty years old this year, although he has lived for a long time, but judging from Huo Zhengliang's tone, this guy has reached his twilight years, I'm afraid he won't live long, because of this, Jianghai City is now also panicking, and all the forces around him are also ready to move, just waiting for this great grandmaster to be finished, seize this piece of fat, perhaps, this is also an opportunity for me." 。 ”

Wang Tong leaned on a chair, staring and thinking, at this time, he has been in Jianghai City for more than a month, living in the Huo family, Jianghai City is Huo Zhengliang's hometown, although this old man is an official of the previous dynasty, but the official reputation is good, to do the provincial and ministerial level, ten years ago he also once patrolled a province, but it is as clean as water, in Wang Tong's view, this guy is a little pretentious, has been an official for decades, and when he came home with his daughter, he only saved more than 100 taels of silver and a broken carriage, but fortunately, there are still some foundations in his home, there are a few shops at home, and it has been taken care of by the son of the family, although it is not a big fortune, it is more than enough to be a public servant, and because of the good official reputation, he returned to Jianghai City, and he was also very respected, as for Wang Tong's identity, no one doubted it, after all, the official reached the level of Huo Zhengliang, and after returning to his hometown, he only took an old housekeeper and a distant relative, which was already surprising, and naturally he would not suspect that this distant relative was fake.

"The old man's injuries are almost healed, and it's time to go out and move his muscles!"

Standing up from the chair and stretching a big waist, Wang Tong seemed to think of something and showed a strange smile. (To be continued.) )
