Heaven's Formula

"Isn't this a naked robbery?" Someone couldn't help muttering.

"Everyone, please don't worry," the little girl was prepared for this response, "The "Ninghua" bank in Jinxia City will provide you with exchange services for Jinxia Yuan and silver coins, and it will be open seven days a week, rain or shine.You can exchange money and silver for Jinxia Yuan when you enter the city, and exchange it back for equivalent gold and silver when you leave!Please note, however, that Jinxia only recognizes a bank in Ninghua as eligible for exchange. Its character Ning represents Her Royal Highness Princess Guangping.If any behavior of maliciously disrupting the market is found, the Bureau will also severely punish it! "

The bank with the princess's surname at the beginning seems to be convincing by nature, and the controversy suddenly became much smaller.

"But why does Jinxia City suddenly want to replace the silver with new currency? Could it be that Her Royal Highness is short of money?"

"How is that possible! I also saw a guard escorting gold bars into Fengyang Villa yesterday. They were all removed from the boat, and they were not covered in time when they were piled up."

"How about we try to exchange it?"

"That's right, it's a free reward anyway, don't want it for nothing."

Similar discussions gradually became the main topic.

Of course, many people began to complain that they gambled in the wrong direction, so that they lost a reward that could be exchanged for gold and silver.

This man's behavior is simple and clear...never beating around the bush...

Thinking of Li's words, a thought suddenly popped up in Venerable Shengtian's mind, "He didn't do this just to promote the animal transportation business and Jinxia's new currency, right?"

"It seems that your understanding of Jinxia City has reached a new level." Li smiled softly.

The Venerable didn't know what to say for a moment.

What a great handwriting!

This seems to be a gamble arranged by the government, but it is actually a publicity meeting, and at the same time, the mechanism beast and the new currency are presented to everyone.

If you want to say whether the effect is good or not, you can tell by looking at everyone's reaction.

There was almost no one around who was not interested in Jinxia Yuan. Everyone's topics were focused on 50 Yuan and Ninghua Bank. It only took a day or two for this kind of discussion to spread the news to every corner of Jinxia City.Although the discussion of the mechanism beast is not as good as the currency itself, its transportation ability has really imprinted in the eyes of merchants.As long as there are more affordable options, they will not miss this opportunity.

As far as the idea is concerned, it is.

How can a liberating mechanism beast that can cause a topic be a simple thing?

If it was made by the Privy Council, it must be a top-secret matter, let alone rented by caravans, most people would never even want to see it.

It was just a publicity display, and Li Mengyun smelled a taste of ingenuity and inefficiency.

7Chapter 17 Your Own Master

"...Let's enter the city."

After a long silence, Venerable Shengtian said.

Although this set of propaganda methods has opened her eyes, it is too early to draw conclusions.When she first arrived in Shangyuan City, the prosperity of the capital also made her astonished.Yancheng is located on the east coast of the Shenzhou border, and has taken in so many refugees, the perception of the city must have dropped significantly, which will also allow her to see Princess Guangping's governance methods more clearly.

On this point, she still has a lot of confidence in Salvationism.

More than [-] refugees have been brought back to Baiyao Mountain one after another. Arranging them in the courtyard in an orderly manner, arranging their food and clothing, and cultivating them into warriors who can stop evil spirits all require good abilities It can only be realized with means.Although the Pope is too weak to act independently, his wisdom is still shining brightly.

After registration, the "caravan" stationed outside the city, and Venerable Shengtian, Li, Luo Qingqing and others passed through the west gate together and entered Jinxia Inner City Avenue.

"Fresh meat buns are out of the oven, does anyone want to try them! The fillings are all top-quality fresh fish, and each one only costs [-] cents!"

"Come and taste Master He's handicrafts. They are all small dishes. You can eat whatever you want!"

"Youzhou's specialty dishes include roast goose and roast liver. They are delicious and sweet. Would you like some?"

The moment she set foot on the stone-paved street, lively shouts came, filling Li Mengyun's ears in an instant.Correspondingly, there is an extremely crowded flow of people - the road with a width of three or four feet is divided into four opposite carriageways. This is the size that is completely in line with the standard in Gyeonggi, but it seems that it is not enough in Jinxia City.People had to squeeze from the side of the road to the middle of the road, and the black heads almost formed a long surging river.

On both sides of the "river", there are all shops.All their signboards are hung above the door eyebrows, and what they sell is clear at a glance.To her surprise, most of them were food-related, ranging from pasta to home cooking.What is even more unbelievable is that there are actually many people patronizing these shops!

"It's unbelievable, isn't it?" Luo smiled softly. "People would choose to have dinner outside."

As the first disciple of the Luo family, she has traveled to many cities and towns, and is familiar with the geography of various countries, so she naturally understands the reason for the fleeting surprise on the Venerable's face.

At any time, it is the most economical way to buy food and cook it yourself.

When you are short of money, you pull out some wild vegetables and put them in the pot to cook.

If you have a little extra money, you will add some beetroot, bones and even minced meat.

Only during the Chinese New Year, fish, meat, chicken and duck will be made into dishes to reward a year's hard work.

As for eating in hotels and inns, that's something only rich people would do.They can spend more money to pay the premium for cooking and service of the dishes.At any time, it is not ordinary people who can afford restaurants, and for this reason, there are not too many restaurants in a city, and brothels and casinos also have their own kitchens to meet the needs of customers.

A situation like Jinxia City is definitely unique in the Six Kingdoms.

Going out to eat is just an appearance, and its deeper meaning is that ordinary people are willing to spend more money to pursue enjoyment other than filling their stomachs.This not only requires people to have surplus in their pockets, but the entire city must be in a state of food abundance to achieve this.Even Gyeonggi Sangwon is far from this goal - although it has the busiest flower street, it pales in comparison to the most basic "food".

Ordinary people may not be able to understand the gap between the two, but the well-informed Venerable Shengtian can see it.

That's why she looked surprised.

"How come... Didn't you recruit many refugees and refugees?"

This information comes from the eyeliner of the Salvation Church, and the estimated number of people is more than 30. How can such an excess population be squeezed into a city without even seeing any impact?She imagined that the beggars all over the street, and the gangsters, seemed to disappear without a trace.

"Actually, a large part of these people you see are refugees." Luo replied softly, "But since Jinxia implemented work-for-relief and vigorously launched infrastructure construction in surrounding areas, they quickly got rid of poverty. The identity of the hunter has a place in this city."

Is that all?

Venerable Shengtian walked slowly in the crowd, looking at the surrounding streets.The deeper she goes, the more new things she sees.

There are not only Jinxia people among the crowds, but also many visitors from the West Pole and monsters.

Especially those strange monsters with pointed ears, their light gold or light gray hair are particularly eye-catching in the crowd.Some long-eared demons even walked with the locals, and there was no gap in the conversation, and they were completely integrated into this secular world.

As for those red-haired merchants and blue-eyed tourists, they were also pointing around the shop. Faced with this situation, the Jinxia people seemed to have become accustomed to it. At most, they would glance at each other when they passed by, and they would not be surprised by the strange appearance of each other. Shout out or stop and watch.

Occasionally, one or two huge biped mechanism beasts will appear on the street.Different from the liberation type seen at the gate of the city, this type of mechanism beast is holding a shield and a short knife at the same time, which is difficult to deal with at first sight.

That's right, it should be the powerful weapon that Jinxia used when defeating the Ten-State Alliance Army.

"On weekdays... are there so many people on the street?" His Holiness couldn't help asking.

"That's not true. During the day, everyone is busy with work, but the streets are empty, but today is the weekend, so there will be more people." Li explained.

"Why?"

"Because the last day of the week is the holiday set by the princess, there is no need to work, but the wages are calculated, so everyone has time to go out and play." Li suddenly slapped his head and said, "By the way, there will be Miss Chi tonight Let’s take a look at the concert, after we put the salutes in place!”

"Salt, salt field meeting?" Venerable Shengtian asked suspiciously, "Who is this Chi girl?"

"She... is Jinxia's most famous idol!" Li covered his mouth and snickered.

What is an idol?

She opened her mouth, but didn't ask the question.

Li Mengyun found that she hadn't encountered such a situation for a long time - almost every sentence of the other party contained words that she couldn't understand, and the last similar situation was when she was babbling.

In addition, she also noticed that the complexion of the people here is completely different from that of the people outside. This difference does not refer to food and clothing, but to spirit.She couldn't tell the specific details, such as the aristocratic family or the big landlord, they also had enough food and clothing, but they were still different from the people in Jinxia City.

Is it the radiant eyes, or the face full of expectations for the future?A well-spoken demeanor, or a figure with a straight back?

For a moment, His Holiness suddenly felt that these people had lost touch with the world she knew——

They are their own masters.

Chapter 748 Unexpected old friend

And among the crowd, some people were secretly watching the visitors of the Salvation Church.

"Here, your candied haws." Gan handed the string of sweet dates to Yan Qing.

"Thank you." The latter took the wooden stick, put it to his mouth and licked it, then suddenly frowned and looked at Yuyi, "Why are you staring at me? Pay attention to that black sect envoy!"

Gan started a little funny, "I thought lock weavers were cold and heartless, and their food would be spicy, sour and salty. I didn't expect you to choose candied haws."

When I was in Gyeonggi, many people regarded Yan Qing as a murderous spider with a poisonous body. There was both awe and alienation. Except for the core members, few people would be willing to deal with the lock weaver.

"Ruthless? It's just that they have ghosts in their hearts." Yan Qing said indifferently, "The moths and enemies lurking in the mansion naturally hope that the judges will be more merciful, but they never think that those who are guilty of dereliction of duty or evil What happens to innocent people whose behavior is compromised. Sometimes I think spiders are more cute, at least they make it clear to others that they are poisonous."

He smiled dryly and didn't answer any more.

Because Lockweaver has indeed changed a lot.

Maybe she didn't even notice it herself.

I searched my memory for more than ten years, but I couldn't find a clip of the other party eating candied haws in public.And with Qingjian's salary, it is impossible to afford desserts, which only shows that she may like sweets, but she hides this preference in front of everyone.

She is the monitor and clearer of the Privy Council, and she needs to establish a majestic and cold image, even if her nature is not like this.

However, after coming to Jinxia, ​​the rulers no longer need her to do this anymore.

Now this woman may be the real Yan Qing.

When encountering enemies, she will still not show mercy, and she also attaches great importance to her responsibilities, but in normal times, she can be more comfortable and share the pressure on her shoulders with more trustworthy partners.

This is also the style of Jinxia rulers.

To be more precise, it was the style of Xia Fan, the founder of the bureau.

His words and deeds are gradually affecting more people.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help showing a wry smile.He originally thought that his Yuyi was quite satisfactory, but now it seems that his performance is not qualified.

"What's the matter with you? You were so startled..." Yan Qing raised her brows.

"It's nothing, I'm just wondering if I could do better if I could do it all over again."

"For example, instead of wandering around the streets all day, honestly marry a girl and start a family?"

"Cough—" Gan almost choked, "Does this have something to do with what I said? And you're not like me, you're in your thirties, and..."

"I'm different from you," Yan Qing shrugged, "I'm the one you like."

what?

I was stunned, the lock weaver actually had a partner?

This is definitely shocking news that shocked all core members!Even He'er, who has information on the size of Gyeonggi, hasn't mentioned it at all!

"...Who is it?" He hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking.

Click.

Yan Qing suddenly crushed a candied haws in her hand, her expression became extremely surprised!

problem occurs?

Gan stuffed the scones in his hands into his sleeves, pumped up his energy, and was about to rush to the Heimen sect's emissary in the next moment—no matter how strong the opponent was, if Luo was in the group, he would not be caught in an instant. lose.When he joins the battle with Yan Qing, the enemy will be able to make no waves.

But he just turned around and froze in place.

The target didn't do anything unusual—the group of people happened to find a special snack bar opened by an elf, and they were sitting at a small table in front of the store, eating exotic food from the tree boat.I've been to that store before, and the hot fish balls and yellow croaker belly are delicious, and with the spicy spices from Shangshuzhou, it's hard to stop.

From Venerable Shengtian's expression, it can be seen that this kind of extremely refreshing taste shock is also the first time for her. Although she deliberately pretended to be calm, her surging throat still revealed her love for spicy fish balls .

The careful Li also noticed this, so he asked the elf shop to serve another fish ball.

It's all as normal as it gets.

It's impossible to punish her on the spot just because the Heimen Sect envoy ordered more fish balls, right?

"What's going on?" Qian looked at Yan Qing in confusion, "Did you find any problems?"

The latter still stared at the man in astonishment, and did not respond for a long time.It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that the lock weaver pinched his cheek and said in an unbelievable tone, "Do you think...where have you seen this famous Venerable Heaven?"

"What?" Gan looked at the woman again and counted his eyes again, "If it is someone I have seen, I can recognize it at a glance, but I really have no impression of this person. Are you wrong?"

Yan Qing pressed her chest, but did not answer.

She just felt that there was a sudden jump.

That's right, this person is undoubtedly a stranger, maybe she used to be an alchemist in the Privy Council, and she must have never dealt with the core members, but why...why does her every move completely match that of her friends?

Yes, it was the partner she thought was dead.

In terms of acquaintance, the two of them used to fall asleep on their feet, and no one knew each other's habits better than her.For example, when eating, the person would always put the dish under his nose and smell it first, and use the smell to confirm his preference.If it is a very favorite dish, she will always stretch the chopsticks into the bowl before swallowing the first bite, even after being promoted to Qingjian.

Yan Qing dare not say that there are other people with the same characteristics in this world, but it is indeed a bit unbelievable to be so similar!

Wait--

She suddenly thought of a question.

On the way to Xu State, his partner was attacked by the Heimen Sect, and his whereabouts were unknown.And according to the information that Li and Luo gently sent back, the Salvation Cult was derived from the Black Gate Cult, and they are essentially the same group of people. Wouldn't it be possible——

The thought made her cover her mouth involuntarily.

Her old friend is not dead!

The Green Sword of the former Privy Council is still alive!
