Became Queen from Douluo

Chapter 245 City of Commerce

It seems that because the Great Soul Fighting Arena in Giant Sword City is relatively remote, the competition venue this time was set up in the square in the center of the city.

As early as a few days ago, the central square was cleared, and then it was greatly strengthened. It is enough to assume the functions of the arena, but there is not a single seat to watch the game. Only people from major colleges are qualified to watch the game outside the square.

I don’t know whether it was premeditated or a coincidence. The shopping malls and hotels surrounding the square changed the restaurants facing the square into viewing areas, and started selling tickets. At the same time, they started selling the welfare coupons that Lin Yun mentioned before.

The standard of the hotel where the little monsters are staying is quite high. Compared to the Tiandou Hotel, there are no concessions. Each suite has five double rooms, which can accommodate ten people. The little monsters are assigned a suite for men and women. , the teachers also arranged a suite.

According to the original price, a room like this costs about one thousand gold soul coins per night. Now thirty or forty rooms are provided for free for the competition, which can be regarded as a big investment.

You know, hotels in this city almost never lack guests. For those businessmen, one thousand gold soul coins are not very expensive.

"Sister Yaoyao, let's go out for a walk. Look at this city. It's even more prosperous than Tiandou City." Xiao Wu looked at the tall buildings around her through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the suite, her eyes filled with longing. The look is quite reminiscent of country people coming to the city.

It would be difficult to see such a scene in the two empires, because various restrictions on merchants always make people less motivated to make money. The traditional economic system makes it unnecessary for the two empires to be established like this. The imperial capital also needs to strictly limit the inflow of outsiders. Once the residential population is small, there is no need to build buildings too high.

Leng Xiyao was also a little moved by Xiao Wu's proposal. In such a trading city, she also wanted to see if she could find anything good.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were also looking forward to this. The girls seemed to have unlimited energy. Tang San and the others were preparing to rest in preparation for tomorrow's game. They were also very tired along the way, but they seemed to be fine. They gathered together After discussing where to go around the introductory picture book of Giant Sword City, we changed our clothes and dressed up again as soon as it got dark and got ready to go shopping.

As soon as I and a few little sisters left the room, a maid came over and said respectfully:

"Miss Leng, Governor Lin invites you."

Hearing this, Leng Xiyao couldn't help but asked strangely: "Governor Lin? Do I know him?"

Hearing this, the maid suddenly looked embarrassed: "This... I don't know, please Miss Leng, please come with me."

Leng Xiyao thought for a while and realized that Governor Lin was probably looking for her to talk about business matters. So she turned around and said apologetically to her companions: "I'm sorry, it seems I have to go there." , sisters.”

"It's okay, Sister Yaoyao, go ahead~"

The few best friends were obviously used to being suddenly let go, so they didn't say much, and the group of good sisters left chatting and laughing.

"Let's go, lead the way."

After hearing Leng Xiyao's words, the maid did not dare to neglect and quickly led her to the restaurant of the hotel.

Along the way, Leng Xiyao did not forget to look around. She had to say that this hotel gave her a completely different feeling from the Tiandou Hotel. It was just like a five-star hotel in her previous life, quiet, clean, luxurious, and... ...expensive.

Even the restaurant here seems very quiet. There is only one band playing very elegant music, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Each seat has a separate soul guide, which can prevent the outside from hearing the chat of the people inside, but the people inside can hear the music outside, and can also block the eyes of outsiders. It is different from the original one at the Tiandou Auction House. It's similar to the kind of soul guidance device I've seen before.

In such an environment, it is absolutely a great enjoyment to dine or discuss business with your loved ones.

As for the food, it seemed ordinary, not too bad, but Leng Xiyao, who had tasted delicious food all over the world, obviously looked down upon these things.

The maid took Leng Xiyao for a long time in the restaurant, and finally came to a seat near the window. She stopped and bowed: "Miss, please come in."

Leng Xiyao nodded, and then passed through the barrier of the soul guide. What came into view was a handsome young man. At this time, he was holding a knife and fork, eating the food in front of him gracefully. The steak was none other than Lin Yun whom I had met at noon.

Seeing Leng Xiyao come in, Lin Yun put down the knife and fork in his hand, stood up and greeted him: "Hey, Xiyao is here, please sit down."

"Governor Lin, do we know each other?" Leng Xiyao was a little confused by the other party's enthusiasm. If she remembered correctly, she had never seen him before.

Is he a friend of his father?That's not right. His father is from Wuhun Palace. The Lin Yun in front of him is obviously from the two imperial camps. He is not from a top sect or the seven major families. There should be no connection at all.

Lin Yun pulled Leng Xiyao to sit down with a smile on his face, then drove away the waiter beside him, personally picked up her favorite orange juice from the table, poured her a glass, and then returned to his seat:

"Hey, Xiyao, you are out of sight now. I am more than ten years older than you. You might as well call me Brother Lin."

Leng Xiyao saw that the other party was so attentive. According to her usual thinking, such courtesy for nothing was either adultery or theft. However, if someone with such a high status as the other party really wanted to discuss business with her, he wouldn't be so attentive. ?

Leng Xiyao had already investigated before coming here. The total amount generated by various trades in Great Sword City every year should be around 20 billion gold soul coins. The tax system of Great Sword City is one out of twenty. In other words, among them [-] million went into Governor Lin's pocket.

Although Leng Xiyao's Tai Lun Chamber of Commerce claims to have a daily income of one million, it was still in the beginning. As firearms became more popular later, fewer people bought them. Even if there were millions of people in the Tiandou City area, they would have one. , the total sales can only make a few hundred million, not to mention that most of these millions of people are ordinary people who simply cannot spend a few hundred gold soul coins to buy guns.

The income of Governor Lin in front of him is an iron rice bowl. As long as Jusword City remains the most important economic and trade city of the two empires, his income will always be higher and not lower.

As for urban construction?Even if he only spends 1000 million per year, it will be enough to build infrastructure to the highest standards. Even if the remaining money is used to support the army and hire experts, it will be his own private army.
