All the loach soldiers boarded the treasure ship.
The hull of the ship seemed ethereal, glowing like glass, with mist lingering inside the ship. Figures were either lying on their backs or playing chess in pairs, looking mysterious and unpredictable.
Their bodies are always in a state of dissociation. Every time the little loaches approach, they sway back into the distance.
Naturally, these immortals do not want to deal with the little loach burrowing in the mud.
The little loaches didn't want to have too much contact with these nobles, so they went directly to the cabin of the treasure ship and inspected the cargo.
What was loaded in the cabin was not any treasure. Most of it was mud, sand and bricks, as if they were going to build some kind of building in Abi Hell. Although the patterns on these blue bricks are quite complicated, they are not prohibited items.
However, the little loaches still checked very carefully, even turning over all the bricks to check inch by inch whether there was any private goods inside.
Everyone on the boat could only frown and wait slowly in place.
"What's this?"
Apart from the bricks and tiles, all I saw was a palm-sized sapphire altar placed on the desk next to the cabin.
The leader of the loach soldiers reached out and opened the lid of the altar, only to find that it contained some kind of grease, glowing orange-red like magma, and an astonishing amount of heat flew out of it, startling all the loaches.
A figure on the deck swayed and came to the cabin. He stretched out his hand and pressed on the cover, and all the strange phenomena disappeared.
"This thing is [Pure Yang Flame Fat]. It is a treasure that can harmonize the yin and cold. If the heat escapes, even your superiors will not be able to pay for it." The figure's tone was very stern. It was obvious that he had been attracted by these loaches. I lost my patience and couldn't help but spread a momentum.
All the little loaches felt an overwhelming pressure coming towards them. The other party's body was covered in smoke, looking powerful and unpredictable.
All the loaches were from related families, and the strongest one did not have a century-old Taoist practice. They were overwhelmed by this aura, and their minds immediately went blank.
"Hahaha, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. These subordinates of mine have just taken up their posts. If they did anything wrong, I would like to apologize on their behalf."
At this moment, a short figure appeared on the deck, and the surrounding space shrank slightly. He then appeared in front of a group of loach soldiers.
The visitor was none other than Qiu Ping. .
"Great... King!"
"Are you the transporter of the passage here?" The figure hidden in the mist looked down at Qiu Ping.
He is just a seventh-grade little god, so the Xie family doesn't need to take him seriously. What's more, a normal seventh-level person still has five hundred years of Taoism, which is about the realm of the Demon Beast Dao [Holy Infant] or the Demon Immortal Dao [Holy Infant].
But the god in front of him was still in the [ancestral aperture] realm, and he despised it even more.
"Thanks to King Mingling's respect, he allowed me to be the transporter here."
"Everyone, can you show some face to the little god with today's incident? This is just a small thing, not a sign of respect." Qiu Ping chuckled, and habitually took out a few pieces of ore from his sleeves and quietly stuffed them into the hands of the figure.
It's not surprising that there are many people in Li. The Xie family is a wealthy family in Qingzhou, so naturally they can't be offended easily.
"Hmph, Lord Transporter, can we go?" The figure flicked his sleeves. Although he used the honorific title, there was no respect in his tone at all.
"Excuse me, everyone." Qiu Ping smiled, and then the treasure ship turned into a stream of light and flew into the passage.
"Everyone, please walk slowly." Seeing the other party flying away, he shouted at the top of his lungs.
It wasn't until everyone in the Xie family disappeared completely that the smile on Qiu Ping's face slowly faded.
"When I see the Xie family's boat in the future..."
"Your Majesty, from now on we won't check the Xie family's boats when we see them, we will just let them go." The little cross-eyed loach at the head said aggrievedly.
This boring job is not as comfortable as digging a hole at the bottom of a well. Although we were humble in the past, no one in the underground river dared to look down upon us.
Unlike now, the people who come and go in this passage all have great backgrounds. Even if they do their job, they will still be scolded.
"Nonsense, the Xie family is a big Shinto family. If you don't check it, you will think that they are taking the lead in not abiding by the Shinto rules. In the future, if you see the Xie family's boat, you must check it ten times, and don't even leave an inch of it. Pass."
As soon as Qiu Ping said these words, all the little loaches were stunned.
Your Majesty, what does this mean? Didn’t you just nod and bow to the Xie family?
"What are you doing so stupidly? Did you hear that?" Qiu Ping frowned and said loudly.
"Yes, your Majesty!" All the little loaches shouted in unison.
"How many times have I told you! Call your duties when you are at work!"
"Okay, Your Majesty!"
"Okay, let's go patrolling." Qiu Ping waved his hand, and all the loach soldiers dispersed in a rush, pushing each other around in the cave to patrol.
"Hey, Xie family..." Qiu Ping looked at the other side of the passage and suddenly turned his palm. Several pieces of ore floating in the passage were sucked into his palm. They were the small gifts he had just given to the Xie family.
These two realms of passage are his jurisdiction, and everything inside cannot be hidden from his eyes.
When the treasure ship was leaving, he saw several pieces of ore being thrown out of the ship, probably...
It must have been accidentally dropped.
…
As the days passed, the passage between the two realms gradually became lively. Every day, many teams entered Abi Hell from the outside world.
Because Abi Hell is far beyond the ordinary world in terms of size and richness of resources. Perhaps King Mingling was worried that Shinto alone would not be able to sustain it, so he allowed all forces in the world to jointly develop it.
But except for wealthy families like the Xie family who have tax-free rights, other forces must pay taxes if they want to enter and exit Abi Hell.
Moreover, the tax is very heavy, which is one-tenth of all the supplies carried.
This is true both in and out.
In other words, no matter how much you bring in, you have to give one-tenth to Shinto. If you bring resources from Abi Hell, you will also have to hand over one-tenth.
Although many forces are complaining about King Minling's black heart, their bodies are very honest, and they are all vying to enter the Abi Hell.
Because Abi Hell has been closed before, a large number of resources inside are extremely rare in the outside world. If you enter early and sell them, the price will be astronomical.
If you wait too long to develop it in the future, these resources will become less valuable.
And, the earlier you get in, the easier it is to develop many resources. If you go too late, you can only explore deeper into the world.
But the deeper the Abi Hell, the more dangerous it is, and no one wants to do such low-cost-effective things.
"Li Grigeleng..." In the main hall of the Transportation Department, Qiu Ping put his tail on the desk and hummed happily.
Judge Cui went to work on warehouse construction today and was away from home all day. The little loach had no one to control him, so he started paddling at work again.
The little carp Li Huanying on the side is struggling to hold the brush and carefully record every word of the little loach.
"The transfer envoy said: 'Li Grigeleng'..." She kept drawing circles on the book, and then dipped it in ink, leaving spots on her clothes.
Qiu Ping is too lazy to talk to Little Carp now. This kid has become interested in writing since he became a clerk.
Let her go, it's a pity that there is another strong general missing in this world.
Little Loach was lying on the seat, his [Fu Lin Supervisor] function was running all the time, and a tax amount would arrive every half-quarter of an hour. Although most of the taxes here have to be paid, the feeling of constantly making money still makes him secretly happy.
The so-called [Fu Lin Supervision] is specially used to monitor the tax collection of the Transportation Department. If someone secretly hides something or colludes with the officials to avoid taxes, Qiu Ping will notice it.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, a little girl and a big girl want to see you!" A little loach rushed in and shouted loudly.
Qiu Ping frowned slightly, what a little girl, a big girl, so rude.
Who can you learn this from?
"What are their backgrounds?" Qiu Ping recalled carefully. Apart from the silly little carp next to him, there should be no other females he knew.
"Oh, they said the surname is flower... Oh, no, no, it's surnamed grass. Anyway, it should be some kind of plant." The little loach who was responsible for reporting scratched his bald head.
Qiu Ping was even more puzzled when he heard it. People with the surname Cao were rare. Could it be some kind of grass carp spirit?
Seeing the little loach scratching his head and scratching his head, Qiu Ping didn't bother to ask any more questions and asked him to call him up.
Not long after, two women walked in from outside.
One person is dressed in white, has a beautiful appearance, and is about seventeen or eighteen years old. The other man was wearing a yellow shirt. He was a little older, but he couldn't be more than thirty years old.
Qiu Ping was immediately happy when he saw the woman in white. Isn't this the niece of the City God's family?
That unlucky little loach had a surname of Hua and Cao, and his surname was Cao, so he was related to the City God of Changning County.
"Cao Ying (荭) pays homage to the transfer envoy."
The two women bowed to the ground and bowed. They are all practitioners, so there is no taboo about keeping their names secret.
What's more, the little loach in front of them is not only underage, he is not even a human being, and he is not so particular.
"You're welcome, come on, come on, sit down quickly." The little loach felt relieved after receiving this gift.
Normally, he was treated as a junior whether in front of Cui Pan or He Bo, but few people treated him with such respect.
This actually made the little loach look at the two people in front of him much more favorably.
"You two should be the family members of the City God. What's the point of coming to my place?" Qiu Ping looked at the two of them with a smile and tried to act like a person close to the people.
"Replying to your lord, the two of us came here hoping to build a small space passage between my Cao family's blessed land and the Ninth Transportation Department. Our Cao family is willing to hand over five thousand incense sticks as rent every year." The older Cao said. (cao) Xin bowed again before speaking.
Updated! I won’t say anything else, just understand it.
