"Swamp City".
Seeing the outline of "Swamp City" from a distance, Cheng Yifan became excited. After traveling hundreds of kilometers, I only paused for a cup of tea, and the fatigue was swept away at this moment. Not surprisingly, "Swamp City" will be where he rises. My uncle can be an inspector, why can't he? He wants to prove to everyone that his success depends on himself, not his uncle.
His uncle is in prison now and cannot help him.
Suddenly, his speed slowed down, and he looked at the road on the ground, frowning, and a hint of haze flashed across his face. In front of you is a broad road leading directly to "Swamp City". From his feet to the gate of "Swamp City", about 15 kilometers, the entire area was paved with a new type of rock slab, flat and wide. Cheng Yifan and his party drove along the dirt road for seven or eight hours. When they saw such a road, their eyes lit up. It felt like they had come from a remote countryside to a prosperous and advanced city.
Building such a road in a swamp, although it is only 15 kilometers, is enough to shock people.
The sound of horse hooves hitting the road, ticking, is intoxicating. For the team that has been struggling in the mud pit for so long, this sound is the sound of nature, so much so that the mud marks and mud chunks left on the road are , everyone became uneasy for no reason, as if they had desecrated beautiful things.
Especially the disapproving eyebrows of passers-by on the road made them more and more uneasy and gave them a sense of guilt.
Cheng Yifan's heart sank slightly. He thought that "Swamp City" was currently in a state of turmoil and secret confrontation, if not chaos. If an area has a new owner, it will still be captured by force. It will take a long time for it to become stable. This is an inevitable process. But he could not see this confrontation and dissatisfaction on the faces of passers-by.
"Swamp City" is a peaceful city, as if it has been like this hundreds of years ago until now. The city and people are in perfect harmony.
There was an unknown caravan in front of them. It was probably their first time here. They stopped when they arrived at the city gate. When they found out about the fees, the leader of the caravan happily paid the tax. The soldiers guarding the city gate did not hesitate any further and simply let him go. The caravan of more than twenty carriages slowly started to enter "Swamp City". When the caravan stopped, the pedestrians who followed them lined up consciously. The order had become a habit and there was no trace of chaos. This made Cheng Yifan, who was about to enter, forget the order and stopped.
As soon as he stopped, his murderous aura was released.
"Forget it, let's go inside and take a look at the situation!" Cheng Yifan comforted himself in this way. If you want to kill someone, when can you not do it? It's too late to investigate first and then kill. The peace flag on the top of the city is very conspicuous, and everyone passing by can't help but take a look. Cheng Yifan squinted his eyes. The battle flag is the soul of an army. The Ping An Army can do no harm to passers-by. The quality of this army is very high.
"dismount!"
While Cheng Yifan was thinking, the caravans and pedestrians in front all entered, and it was their turn. They were all riding war horses and looked very powerful. Pedestrians passing by should keep a little distance and be wary. But the soldiers guarding the city gate showed no fear or uneasiness in their eyes and treated them as ordinary people.
Being able to do this shows the extreme self-confidence of these fighters. Where does the self-confidence come from? Peaceful Army!
"Dismount!" Cheng Yifan ordered. If he had just come here, he would have definitely rushed in and killed all the soldiers who dared to stop him with one blow, but his mentality had changed.
More than two hundred people have dismounted. The "Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce" has a strong sense of hierarchy. Cheng Yifan is the leader of this team. If someone disobeys orders, the consequences will be serious.
The entrance fee is surprisingly low. If you bring goods, the tax is between 5 and 10 copper coins. For people, it is based on head count. Regardless of level or strength, a wisp of 10 copper coins per person. You must know that the entry fee for "Suzaku City" is almost as high as 1 silver coin. No wonder the caravan in front paid so readily. Such a low rate was the merchant's luck.
The "Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce" has business across the three major empires, and is very sensitive to taxation. A one percent tax reduction can save hundreds of thousands or even millions of gold coins for the huge "Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce".
Entering the city gate, Cheng Yifan was stunned for a moment, causing a slight confusion among the horses behind him. However, Cheng Yifan ignored this and glanced across the long, straight and spacious street with a look of surprise on his face.
There is no obstruction on the 5-kilometer-long street, giving you an unobstructed view. There are carriages and war horses in the middle, and sidewalks on both sides. This kind of design is common in reality, but it suddenly appears in "World of Warcraft" and makes people's eyes bright.
The transplanted trees were transplanted for a short period of time and the traces are obvious, but the plants in "World of Warcraft" have strong vitality. Even though they have only been transplanted for a few days, they have already adapted and are full of vitality.
The ground is paved with polished stone slabs, which are smooth and flat. For caravans, this kind of road is a highway. There is no garbage or fallen leaves on the road. It is incredibly clean.
It's easy to understand that you can't see the leaves. The transplanted evergreen trees on both sides rarely lose a few leaves a year, but it's not easy to see the garbage. Cheng Yifan has stayed in "World of Warcraft" all year round and is very aware of the virtues of these players. In reality, due to the strict laws, you are not allowed to do this or that. When it comes to "World of Warcraft", you are like a wild dog out of the cage, tossing hard.
"Suzaku City" is known as a civilized city. People can often be seen urinating in the corner, and spitting is a bad habit that cannot be changed. But "Swamp City" did it. There is no saliva on the street. When the cattle and horses pulling the cart enter the city gate, they will install a pocket on their buttocks to catch all the feces and urine without leaving any.
"Swamp City" is a commercial city that the Wang family focuses on building. Cheng Yifan comes here at least once a year. He is as familiar with "Swamp City" as he is at home. It was precisely because of familiarity that I was so upset when seeing such a big change.
"It's not easy!" Cheng Yifan felt awe-struck. Although he had a bad relationship with his uncle Cheng Huang in the "Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce", he was still taken care of when he needed to be taken care of. He was young and already a middle-level manager, so he knew one thing very well. How difficult it is to change the original rules of conduct. Being able to do such a thing only shows that the prestige of the leader is very powerful.
Cheng Yifan knew that he had to change the way he dealt with "Swamp City", and rough suppression was not feasible. It can be seen from the health situation that the Ping An Army's control of "Swamp City" has reached an outrageous level. suppress
The Ping An Army was likely to cause resistance in the whole city. He put away his contempt and came to the largest inn in "Swamp City", "Ziyun Mansion".
The original owner of "Ziyun Mansion" was Tian Baijia, and the boss behind the scenes was the "Blood Clothes Sect". Of course, the current boss has become Liu Wei'an, but on the surface, the boss is still Tian Baijia.
More than two hundred people would not be able to be accommodated in any other city and must be diverted, but "Purple Cloud Mansion" can. "Swamp City" is a commercial city, and large caravans often appear. Not to mention more than 200 people, "Ziyun Mansion" has also received teams of more than 500 people.
In the most distinguished box of "Ziyun Mansion", Cheng Yifan sat on a chair and waited. As for why he didn't go directly to the "Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce", it was to avoid alerting the enemy. After entering "Swamp City", he knew that all the plans he had made on the way here were no longer applicable. At this time, what he considered was to figure out the situation in "Swamp City" first, so as not to let things go unfinished and end up involving himself. .
That would be embarrassing.
When I came to "Swamp City" before, I found that there were many people in "Swamp City", but they were mainly businessmen, with servants, servants, workers, etc. One businessman was the center, and various service personnel could reach a hundred people. This time, there were more people coming to "Swamp City" than before, and the number of masters also doubled. From the city gate to "Purple Cloud Mansion", he saw more than fifty gold-level masters. This density was already the same as that of "Suzaku City".
"Suzaku City" is the main city.
There was a knock on the door, and it was the waiter who had brought the dishes. Seven or eight beautiful waiters put the dishes on the table. When they were leaving, a man with an ordinary face entered the room quietly without disturbing anyone.
After the cute waiter left and closed the door, the man knelt down towards Cheng Yifan and said, "Your Majesty, Cheng Gong, pays homage to the master!"
"Sit down!" Cheng Yifan looked at Cheng Gong for a few seconds before letting him get up. Cheng Gong was a casual chess move that he had accidentally made before, and he had no intention of using it, because he never thought that the Chamber of Commerce in "Swamp City" would be taken over by someone.
"Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce" is one of the top ten chambers of commerce. This reputation is not created by force. It is built with punches and kicks for decades. If you don't want unruly individuals, even the major families and the three major empires will not. Dare to easily offend the power of the top ten chambers of commerce. Liu Wei'an is an alternative. To the "Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce", this kind of thing is an accident in the eyes, but what Cheng Yifan sees is an opportunity.
If we don't break or establish, if we just go step by step, there will be no chance for young people like them.
It no longer matters what Cheng Gong's original name was. From the moment he was rescued by Cheng Yifan, he was called Cheng Gong, and Cheng Yifan's contribution will be remembered throughout his life. He sits on the stool in a polite manner. He is a man of few words and doesn't ask questions that shouldn't be asked.
"Tell me about the current situation of "Swamp City"!" Cheng Yifan gestured to Cheng Gong to talk while eating. However, Cheng Gong would not be so ignorant. He thanked him but did not grab his chopsticks.
""Swamp City" is now completely under the control of the Ping An Army. The identity of the master should have been grasped by the Ping An Army, and the information about the subordinates appearing in front of the master should have been sent to the Ping An Army Intelligence Department!"
Cheng Yifan's chopsticks faltered, and the fish he held slipped off and fell on the table. Cheng Yifan didn't pay attention, and looked up at Chen Gong with a scary look in his eyes.
