"Yu'er, what do you think?" Liu Wei'an leaned back on his chair and looked at the ceiling. On the coffee table, there was no tea, but an animal skin, exuding an ancient atmosphere.
"Haven't you already decided? You're still asking me!" Yang Yu'er looked away from the gate. The animal skin was personally sent by Fu Wangchuan, the person in charge of the "Silver Chamber of Commerce" in "Dragon Bird City".
The condition is that in the future, only the "Silver Chamber of Commerce" will exist in "Longque City", and the other nine of the top ten chambers of commerce cannot appear in "Longque City".
The animal skin is a formation diagram, "Suzaku Formation". Although it is a broken diagram, the completeness rate is as high as 80%. With Liu Wei'an's level, he can already arrange it into a formation.
Compared with those little-known formations, most of the ancient formations are combination formations. Wind, rain, thunder, lightning, earth, mountains, rivers, stars... various forces are combined and connected with each other, and finally form a complete formation. .
Each formation is extremely complex, and precisely because the formation is made up of combinations, if parts are missing, it will only reduce the power of the formation, but it can still function. For example, if a person is missing a finger or a toe, It's just an inconvenience. It doesn't hinder normal physiological activities.
It's strange that the items left over from ancient times have been cursed by God. The powerful forces are basically incomplete. The major families and the top ten chambers of commerce, as the forces that dominate the real world, have never been completely intact. Whatever you get from the ancient power is incomplete.
The "Five Elements Sect" has a long history and a profound foundation, but the "Zhutian Jedi" formation it obtained is also incomplete. Liu Wei'an was not clear about this at the beginning. As his mastery and understanding of the formation deepened, he discovered that the Blue City's "Destroying Heaven and Jedi" formation was also incomplete.
The completion rate of "Suzaku Formation" is 80%, which is already extremely high.
"Suzaku Formation" is not among the top ten most ferocious formations. This does not mean that "Suzaku City" is not powerful. On the contrary, the power of "Suzaku City" is not among the top ten ferocious formations. This is just because "Suzaku City" has been in the hands of famous and upright sects for a long time. On the other hand, there are very few opportunities to show off one's power, so one's reputation is not obvious.
The appearance of the secret realm will inevitably attract a large number of masters, and those old monsters who have been in seclusion for decades may also be alarmed. Liu Wei'an is worried about the safety of "Dragon Bird City", and the "Suzaku Formation" sent by Fu Wangchuan can be said to be a timely gift.
The safety of "Longque City" is very important. The "Ping An Army" cannot stop fighting. Liu Wei'an is weak, so he cannot refuse the "Suzaku Formation".
In addition to guarding the safety of "Dragon Bird City", the "Suzaku Formation" also has the purpose of targeting the secret realm. He, Liu Wei'an, is not a boy who is good at making money. How can he leave a treasure as big as the secret realm alone? No matter what he does now, he can't get in. When the secret realm absorbs enough blood and is truly opened, that will be his chance to enter.
Yang Yu'er could guess part of Liu Wei'an's thoughts, and that's why he said that. Yang Yu'er has a high talent for business, so she is very aware of the horror of monopoly.
Giving up all the market of "Dragon Bird City" to the "Silver Chamber of Commerce" will inevitably feed the "Silver Chamber of Commerce" into a giant. In the end, the tail will be too big to lose, and it may even devour the master. This is by no means impossible. Among the top ten chambers of commerce, the "Silver Chamber of Commerce" has a very good reputation, but if anyone dares to say that the "Silver Chamber of Commerce" is very kind, it would be too naive.
In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent. The primitive accumulation of these chambers of commerce has been stepped on countless blood and bones.
"If you ask me, I won't look dictatorial and look more democratic." Liu Wei'an said.
"You have to decide before asking me. Asking now is too fake." Yang Yu'er gave me a big roll of her eyes.
"Let's go meet those naughty people." Liu Wei'an laughed. When he stood up, the animal skins on the coffee table disappeared.
…
The "Ping An Army" manages the cities relatively abiding by the rules and will not cause wanton destruction. This is also the reason why the cities under its control have not rebelled.
Of course, sometimes exceptions are made, such as the orders issued by Liu Wei'an. At that time, the rules will not be ignored. Liu Wei'an's orders are the rules.
If you live in "Longque City", you should pay taxes, right? "Dragon Bird City" worked hard to build a city wall to protect everyone, and the protected people should pay a certain fee, right? Road construction is to save time and make it convenient for everyone, so you should contribute a little bit, right? Sweeping the streets so clean makes everyone's stay more comfortable...
The role of the 'census' has been demonstrated and no one can escape. Everyone in "Longque City" ignored the power of heresy. No one thought that the key person who made the 'census' zero error day and night was Zuo Dao. We must not ignore the power of heresy.
With the data in front of us, some people have no choice but to evade taxes.
"I just don't want to pay the tax. Why? I already paid the city tax when I entered the city, and now I still have to pay it. The way "Longque City" behaves is unacceptable." A big man with a beard yelled. shouted,
The veins are exposed.
He spoke what many people are thinking: Who is willing to hand over their hard-earned money? "World of Warcraft" is a very cruel world, and every coin is earned with life.
"20 gold coins and one death, which one is more cost-effective, this account is easy to settle." The soldier of "Peace Army" said calmly and patiently.
"Is it guaranteed that you won't die if you pay the money?" the big man asked.
"No, but as long as you hide in the city and don't come out when the monsters attack the city, you will be safe. If the monsters want to kill you, they will definitely step on the corpse of the "Ping An Army"." The Ping An soldier said calmly. , possessing an indescribable confidence and domineering power.
"You still think you can survive by paying money?" The big man said in a mocking tone, but no one agreed with him. He felt a little uneasy and said loudly: "I have no money, and I don't want to be protected by your "Ping An Army". I can always leave." Bar?"
"Please!" The Ping An warrior immediately made way. The big man didn't expect the Ping An Army to be so decisive, and he was a little caught off guard. He was unwilling to leave in his heart. After leaving "Dragon Bird City", he had personally experienced how dangerous the outside world was. However, at this moment, with everyone watching, Gui Gui couldn't help but leave. He wasn't that thick-skinned yet.
"Just leave!" The big man acted very bravely, but the hesitation when he turned around was still seen by many people.
"I'll pay!" Seeing the Ping An soldiers looking over, the remaining people did not resist and took out their money one after another. If it were other cities, 20 gold coins would definitely be a big number, but the players of "Dragon Bird City" were still very wealthy. After all, "Dragon City" is equivalent to a second-tier city in "World of Warcraft", with a relatively high economic level.
There are also those who live in embarrassment, and "Ping An Army" did not kill them with one shot. You can pay 10 gold coins and work for 10 days to pay for the other 10 days, or you can not pay a penny and work for 20 days, both are acceptable.
Many of Zuo Dao's brothers just choose to work for 20 days. The "Ping An Army" will not pay wages, but they will take care of the food and eat whatever they want.
Ordinary players have no power and are unable to fight against the general trend of "Ping An Army", but this is not necessarily the case for masters. Masters' tempers are relatively short-tempered.
However, when three consecutive gold peak masters were killed by the "Ping An Army", the remaining masters were all honest and obediently took out 20 gold coins without waiting for the Ping An soldiers to ask.
"I am a beast trapper. Are you still short of people in your "Peace Army"?" a player asked with a stern expression. Two days ago, the "Ping An Army" invited him to help, but he refused simply and even made some mocking remarks. At that time, the "Ping An Army" didn't say anything and left.
Therefore, this person thought that the "Ping An Army" was just like that, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Now he realized that the "Ping An Army" was very sophisticated and could make him surrender obediently without using force.
Help "Ping An Army" capture mounts. Each time you successfully capture one, you will be rewarded with 10 gold coins. Those who don't help must either pay money or do work. In contrast, it is better to make friends with the "Ping An Army".
Of course, not everyone surrenders, there are still many people with backbone. When "Ping An Army" saw the angry expressions of these people when they paid, it was nothing but a sneer in their hearts. People who can't recognize their identities will eventually suffer.
Either pay money, work, or be expelled from the city. There is no third possibility. Even the "Silver Chamber of Commerce" and major families have to pay the money obediently. The remaining people have to cooperate obediently no matter how dissatisfied they are. However, there are always exceptions.
boom--
A Ping An soldier broke through the door and flew seven or eight meters, landing on the street. There was an uproar on the street. At this time, those who dare to confront the "Ping An Army" and even injure the "Ping An Army" are simply desperate. However, when everyone saw the owner of the house, they all understood.
Meng Chao, a famous bounty hunter, takes money to do things without distinction between right and wrong. He has always made money from others, and it is not easy for him to cough up the money.
He was 195cm tall, and his weapon was a machete. His eyes were like cold lightning. With one glance, the "Ping An Army" knew that he was no match for this person. They retreated like a tide. When they heard the movement, the sword flew over and was still dozens of meters away. The knife has been drawn.
"Qiang——"
The sound of the sword being unsheathed resounded throughout the surrounding area, and the blood-red sword energy extended for tens of meters and struck down heavily, as fast as lightning.
"Seeking death!" Meng Chao yelled angrily, not seeing how he drew the sword at all. In an instant, countless sword lights appeared in the sky, like a violent wind and a heavy rain covering the whole body of the sword, and an invisible wisp of light appeared between the swords. The silk thread, like a net, wraps up the earth knife.
"What kind of sword technique is this? It's so scary!" From a distance, Yang Yu'er's face turned pale as she watched. This sword, if it were her earth sword, would definitely not be able to block it.
"This is an application of true energy!" Liu Wei'an's Demon God's Eye shot out two rays of light. This was the first time he had seen such a sword technique. He couldn't tell how the sword technique was.
Although he has practiced it, he can feel the terrifying power of sword skills. These invisible threads are like electric wires. If any point touches the target, all the electricity will rush forward and instantly smash the target into pieces.
Unprepared, Di Dao was in danger. However, Di Dao was Di Dao. He chose another path between lightning and stone. He ignored the upcoming attack. His internal energy surged, and the sword's light surged, and a dazzling light shone. Tian Tian actually chose to die with Meng Chao.
"No -" Yang Yu'er was shocked. Her strength was not as good as that of Di Dao, but she still had good vision.
A trace of disdain flashed in Meng Chao's eyes. The attack of the Earth Sword was indeed terrifying, but his failure to hold back at the beginning doomed him to failure. If the trapped beast continued to fight, it would cause him some trouble and lose his left arm, but what the Earth Sword lost was his life. However, before his pride could fully blossom, a sudden change occurred.
An indescribable power came. This power was so terrifying and weird that it actually caused his sword power to stagnate for an instant. Although it was only a faint moment, how could a master's skill tolerate a moment of stagnation? The earth knife escaped from the knife net, and the blood suddenly appeared. Meng Chao, who wanted to dodge, was too late and fell into a pool of blood.
"I don't accept it!" Meng Chao shouted in the direction of Liu Wei'an. He didn't know who made the move, but he could sense the direction of the source of the power.
"Kill!" Liu Wei'an said calmly and took Yang Yu'er to other places.
"Don't—" Meng Chao screamed in horror, a ray of sword light flashed, Meng Chao's voice suddenly stopped, and a blood mark slowly appeared on his neck.
"You made the wrong choice!" Di Dao turned around and left, never looking at Meng Chao again. Before Meng Chao's eyes turned gray, there was a flash of unwillingness and regret.
Yes, everyone is honest, why should I be the first?
Meng Chao's death caused a great shock in "Longque City". Meng Chao was a real master. Unlike those members of big families who accumulated resources, his current status was achieved with one blow and one blow with combat experience. Incredibly rich. In the perception of many people, "Ping An Army" should tolerate a master like Meng Chao who is also a casual player, even if he is naughty. After all, it is more beneficial to use such a master for one's own purposes than to become an enemy. No one expected that Liu Wei'an directly ordered the killing without any hesitation.
Less than three minutes after Meng Chao's death, an even more horrifying news spread across the city like a hurricane. The Camel Cavalry, the second-ranked cavalry team in "Dragon Bird City", was picked by Black and White Wuchang's leaders. All 48 people in the top management were killed. Not a single one is left. The rest of the survivors fell into the arms of the "Peace Army".
The horse team is equivalent to the real-life express delivery. The market is huge and the profits are high. It is a huge profit industry that is envied by all the big families. "Longque City" is so big, there are only three cavalry families, and behind each cavalry family there are more than a dozen or even dozens of forces. It is no less troublesome to deal with a cavalry family than to deal with a big family.
But the "Ping An Army" chose it simply because a few people in the camel cavalry team were unwilling to pay the cost of building the city wall. For less than 100 gold coins, 48 top experts died for it.
Even fools understand the intention of killing chickens to scare monkeys, but they understand that no one in "Longque City" dares to disobey the orders of the "Ping An Army".
"It's a pity. I thought he would take action, but I didn't expect him to be so bearable!" Standing on the "Yueyang Tower", Liu Wei'an drank a small drink and faced Yang Yu'er, but his consciousness was locked on a certain person on Third Street. Buildings everywhere.
A small city like "Blue City" can have masters such as the red-haired old man and the dwarf Mr. Lu, and a big city like "Dragon Bird City" naturally has such hidden masters, or old guys who have been in seclusion for a long time.
Mao admits that he is such an old monster with a very high seniority, one generation higher than Daha Yu. He is the biggest backer of the Camel Horse Team in "Dragon Bird City".
"How about killing him secretly?" Yang Yuer was not so courageous before, shouting to kill a half-step platinum, but now Liu Wei'an can kill half-step with his own strength. Platinum, not to mention Shi Yuntai, a master who has touched the field.
Two against one, Mao admitted that even though he has the power of heaven, he still has to hold hatred.
"Forget it!" Liu Wei'an thought for a while, but gave up, "Mao frankly has no thoughts on the camel cavalry anymore. If he leaves seclusion, the first thing he will do is go to the secret realm!"
"Dragon Bird City" is very important, and the secret realm is also very important. Keeping such a master can be of great help in the secret realm.
"You are a man, you have the final say." Yang Yuer said.
"Is it okay to say anything?" Liu Wei'an's eyes had a hint of something else.
"Tang Dingdong is here!" Yang Yuer's heart trembled as she was stared at by Liu Wei'an, and she turned her face away, just in time to see Tang Dingdong going upstairs.
Ten minutes later, Liu Wei'an signed the second order to settle in "Longque City", and the order was announced to the whole city. "Longque City" was silent for a while.
