Chapter 731: The Secret of the Ancestor (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

There are two markets in Cangshan County, and the Okura Yamabo City, which is located outside the monk's mountain villa, is the southeast corner of the city, centered on the square street, covering an area that spreads out in all directions, with a radius of more than ten miles. The scale of Linyuan City is three times that of Cangshan County, and there are a total of five markets that can be used by mortal monks to trade items. Except for one small city in the inner city, the other four markets are located near the four city gates in the south, east and west.

It is also a common practice in many large cities to set up the fang market near the city gate, mainly to facilitate the entry and exit of merchants, and those who are unwilling to go deep into the city for various reasons to enter the fang market to trade.

The scale of each of the four major fang cities in Linyuan City is not smaller than that of Okura Shanfang City, and since it is the Nanmenfang City located in the southern city, its area is particularly huge. Whether it is Nanmen Fang City or the other three Fang markets, there were also their own elegant names, the old white surname did not buy it, all with the direction of the four cities to call, thousands of years, the original name has been remembered.

The scale of Nanmenfang City has also gradually developed in the past two or three thousand years, and the main reason is that more and more southern goods are flowing into Linyuan City.

On the occasion of the establishment of the Wu dynasty, Wu Zu killed the seven barbarians with a big spear, and avoided the depths of the dense rainforest of the Southern Wilderness. In the end, he failed to kill the Seven Clans, and in the long years after that, the eyes of several generations of emperors of the Wu clan never left the dense and deep jungle in the south. The wildfires are inexhaustible, the spring breeze blows and grows again, and the human race has been waiting in vigilance, the legend says that the seven emperors will gather and the seven barbarians will make a comeback.

Thousands of years have passed, and the depths of the Southern Wilderness are still calm, and the seven barbarian tribes who have avoided here have not only made no progress, but even many incidents have occurred to exterminate other barbarian clans in order to compete for resources for survival. For example, the Qingqiu clan that moved out of the Southern Wilderness hundreds of years ago was attacked and killed by the three barbarian tribes, and almost the entire group was wiped out, and they had to switch to the human race. This is also thanks to the fact that Qingqiu has many beautiful women, and there are talented characters such as Empress Chu, which are finally accepted by the human race. If you want to enter the territory of the human race, there is only one way to sell yourself into slavery.

The decline of the Seven Barbarians also made the Wu Clan's vigilance gradually relaxed, and the two major sects of Zhiyue and Jiuyou, which were coerced by the Wu Clan on the border of the Southern Wilderness, also had a leisurely time of three or two thousand years. Not only did there be more and more disciples, but the cultivators of the two sects also had more leisure time to ponder about the trivial matters such as planting tea and brewing wine.

In contrast, the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts and the Cangshan Academy, which guarded the Western Wilderness, were much more miserable, not only did the living environment be harsh, but a big beast tide every few hundred years would cause most of the many elite disciples under the sect to lose most of them. This is also an important reason why the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts and Cangshan Academy have always been at the bottom of the Seven Sect Rankings.

As the threat from the south gradually decreased, some treasures from southern Xinjiang also began to flow into the Wu Dynasty, but the inflow channels of these treasures were not through the southern wilderness border guarded by Zhiyue Mountain or Jiuyou Mountain Villa, but went around a circle to the west, through the Sequoia River running through southern Xinjiang, upstream through various channels, and finally entered the major cities of Linyuan City. Nanmenfang City also benefited from this, so that it was able to expand day by day and become the largest square city in Western Xinjiang.

As for the big market mentioned by Diligence and Yunshang, it is a large-scale treasure trading market held in Nanmenfang City on the seventh day of the first month of each month. At that time, there will be not only large and small caravans from the interior, as well as wild and scattered cultivators from all directions, but also barbarian slave traders who have traveled thousands of rivers and mountains from the south.

These barbarian slave dealers all played the banner of selling barbarian slaves captured from southern Xinjiang, and they would also carry a large number of treasures and special products from southern Xinjiang in private. Because it is a first-hand sale, the price of these things can reach a gap of more than ten times or even dozens of times between the price of the imperial city and the market on the other side. Because of this, at the beginning of each month, when those barbarian slave traders who drove a large number of barbarian slaves entered Linyuan, many long-awaited imperial caravans would rush to the door.

Large transactions were always done by the bigwigs in private, but it did not prevent a large number of loose cultivators, savage hunters, and small caravans from entering the abyss from the south gate with the mighty procession of barbarian slave traders. These outlaw cultivators who haunted the wilderness, in groups of three or five, seven or eight people, were a small gang, and they also traveled between the southern Xinjiang and the western wilderness, bartering from the hands of the southern barbarians to get precious treasures, and then transporting them to the big cities that could be sold at a high price to sell them privately to earn high profits. Of course, if they meet weaker peers or unlucky experienced monks on the way, they don't mind doing a murderous deal.

The reason why many people choose Nanmenfang City in Linyuan, in addition to the scale effect, is also because Wu Qingyuan is not a strict prince. Under his rule, Linyuan City did not follow the strict decrees appointed by the Wu Dynasty 100%, including the tax commission in the Fang market transactions, and only collected a symbolic amount of silver ingots from the sellers of goods according to the head.

The date of the South Gate Market is from the first day of the month to the tenth day of the first month, and the seventh day of the first month is the most lively, and the Wu brothers agreed on this day, but also to see the grand occasion of the South Gate Market.

Early in the morning, he put on a gray robe that he had asked for from Wu Chuanfang and had been worn by the servants in the former palace. The people who have offended the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts recently are a bit ruthless, and if they go out to wander around the city in a gray robe with a flower-faced civet cat mark, they will not be able to be suffocated. The gray robe of the miscellaneous servants on Wu Chuanfang's Mansion has no such danger, and it bears the unique mark of the martial arts, even if it is a miscellaneous gray robe, ordinary people do not dare to offend.

Yin Qin not only changed his clothes, but also took a small one and went to the door of Yunshang's Dan room to wait. After a while, the blue tinch came out of it, glanced at him and said lightly: "Director Yin came early, and the ancestor is ready." ”

Yin Qin raised the gray robe in his hand, raised his voice slightly, and said with a smile: "I'm here to see off the master, if the master is not easy to tolerate, he will go to the market, and he won't attract half of the city to watch?"

This guy's ability to slap horses is really unmatched! Blue Bird muttered in his heart, and said, "The ancestor has already done it, just waiting for you to come." ”

Attentive and secretly smiled: Hua Yunshang has lived for more than 100 years, but she has been practicing hard in the wilderness for more than 90 years, and she is probably very excited when she hears that she is going to catch a big set today. He stepped into the room, looked up, and could not help but be stunned: standing in the room was a black-faced man with a full beard, wearing a robe of a hunter sewn from animal skins, and his face was covered with dust and vicissitudes.

Yunshang's disguise and disguise technique made Yin Qin breathtaking, he stared at the gloomy man in the room for a long time, and a big question mark suddenly appeared in his heart: Hua Yunsheng's outfit is a bit like the legendary red spider Zhu Choumei, the green spider who kills people and excites goods in the Western Wilderness?
