Chapter 105: Changes in the Post-Era (Part 1)
The town of Blue Mountains, the border town of Pulitzer. It borders the Herosmen Empire and the Principal of Mount Hakbe, and is a real area of no-cost.
The town is quite prosperous and even more chaotic. From the bottomless abyss in the east, there are never interrupted screams, and you know that this is not a good place for peace and tranquility.
However, chaos does not mean lack of prosperity, special geographical advantages, and chaotic management system. This makes it the most important material and trade area between the three countries.
Every day, there are traffic flowing, people coming and going, noisy and disturbing.
The town of Blue Mountain is not too big, but the roads are extremely spacious. Even in the capital of the Principality, there are very few roads that can allow four carriages to be side by side. The roads here are usually twice as wide and narrow. The cross-border road of the town is a place where giant dragons can run in groups.
There are rows of shops on both sides of the street. The guys are not yelling hard in the morning sun. While wiping and cleaning, they spare no effort to introduce the special products of their shops on the street. Every few steps away, there is a snack stall, which contains all kinds of snacks and breakfast.
Whether it is a pedestrian or a merchant in the residence, most of them cannot take steps when smelling the aroma of various snacks in the air. They go in and pick and sit down and enjoy it. There is a noisy scene.
The streets of Dongmen were bustling with each other, and suddenly the crowd flashed to both sides, giving way out the middle and giving way to a box truck pulled by Fire Dragon.
Behind the car was two rows of neat guards. Everyone had serious expressions and cold eyes. They were all blue and white outfits, which made people unconsciously shut up and retreat.
"What's this for? So many people." A man holding a bowl of porridge in his hand asked at the snack stall.
The snack stall owner who was sweating profusely in front of him smiled and stirred the porridge on the magic stove to make it heated evenly. "You don't recognize this? It seems that this is the first time you have come to our town?"
The big man exclaimed: "How do you know? I have just arrived for two days and pulled a cart of small things from China and prepared to come and sell it for a good price."
"No wonder!" the stall owner shook his head and said, "The most people are going to kill people and grab territory!"
"Murder?" The big man opened his mouth wide.
"What's this?" the stall owner smiled and said, "This place is not as good as the country. If you don't care about the area, you can kill people as long as you dare to attack. But you have to kill anyone. If you kill a foreigner, you will be killed. If the body is thrown to the east, no one can care about it. If you move the gang members, you should pay more attention and be careful to be taken off in revenge."
"Good!" The man scratched his head and said, "I heard that there was chaos here before, but I didn't expect it to be so messy. Isn't anyone taking care of it?"
"Who cares? Who dares?" The stall owner wiped his hands on the apron, leaned against the door and took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket. He held one in his mouth, but he didn't see him making fire. He just gently wiped the cigarette butt with his fingers, and a wisp of blue smoke slowly emerged.
The stall owner took a deep breath and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "But the terrain here is special. Although it belongs to the border area of the Three Kingdoms, the terrain is relatively high and cannot be a battlefield. The only use is to conduct underground trading venues. All the noble merchants can put aside their usual hypocrisy and do these smuggling and profit-making businesses that they always oppose. Such a special place will naturally be the more chaotic, the better. How could anyone care?"
The big man said dumbfoundedly: "Boss, you know a lot!"
"Hi!" The stall owner waved his hand: "What's this? I don't know how many ministers and rebels are fleeing here. I'm almost calling out every day. Of course, I know a little."
"Then here..." The man pointed to the bustling street, with a little confused.
"You want to ask why the streets are so prosperous because they are so chaotic?" The stall owner shook his head and said, "Of course someone has set rules. Did you see those people just now?"
"Those who do you say you are snatching territory?"
"Well!" The stall owner was in a hurry to talk, so he simply handed over the porridge cooking work to a clerk behind him and sat down and said, "As long as people can grab the territory, it will be a chamber of commerce! In the future, they will be qualified to do big business. All chambers of commerce in our Lanshan Town must have the strength commensurate with the qualifications of businessmen. They are in charge of the three largest chambers of commerce in Lanshan Town, and it is said that each has two thousand elite soldiers under their command."
"Two thousand elite soldiers?" The man's face changed.
The stall owner looked around and leaned over, lowered his voice: "I heard that Pulitzer once was jealous of the wealth here like flowing water. He photographed five thousand soldiers dressed up to try to snatch the town. Who knew that they would be killed by the three chambers of commerce in one encounter and all the bodies were thrown into the east abyss."
"All five thousand were killed?" The big man widened his eyes.
The stall owner shook his head and said, "From me, although it may not be slaughtered, there are not many left. Every time, the three chambers of commerce work together to collect corpses and pythons. I wonder how many big trucks have been made into the abyss, just to clean up the corpses?"
"Yeah!" the big man nodded and suddenly asked again: "Since the three major chambers of commerce are so powerful, why do you still allow these small chambers of commerce to run rampant on the streets and grab territory everywhere?"
The stall owner sneered and shook his head and said, "At first glance, you are not a big deal. What else do you have to think about this point? The three major chambers of commerce are specializing in big business, and although some small businesses are not spared. However, there are so many businesses in the world store, even if he has a lot of people, he can't take care of it all by himself! Letting his small chambers of commerce grow will not only supplement the business prosperity of the entire border town, but what a good choice!"
"So..." The big man nodded with a little understanding: "Actually, the three major chambers of commerce don't care which one is below. Just be honest and obedient?"
The stall owner looked at the big man with a child's teaching look: "So, anyone who has some ability to organize a group of people wants to grab a territory to do a big business. He fights and kills every day..." As he said that, the stall owner shook his head.
The big man hurriedly asked: "Are you afraid of being injured by accident?"
"Often no," the stall owner shook his head and said, "It's all business people, and few people implicate innocent people. Besides..." The stall owner looked back at his men, and a grinned smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I'm not a vegetarian either."
"Yes!" The big man was startled, nodded repeatedly, avoiding the stall owner's gaze. He made up his mind and left quickly after handling the truck, and never came to this terrible place again.
----------
Inside the Fire Dragon Car, Cao Hong sat quietly in the back seat. The bustling streets outside were noisy, but they were almost impossible to hear here, and the sound insulation effect was very good.
The decoration of the car model is very luxurious. If it weren't for a big fire dragon in front of it, I would remind everyone that this was a livestock pulling a cart, and I almost thought I was sitting in the first class car of a luxury EMU.
It has been more than a week since I came to this world of brave men and demon kings. Cao Hong was just able to understand the changes in the world of brave men and demon kings.
Recalling the expression of the client Bunker's swearing that the world is "war is everywhere, and people are living in poverty", and thinking about the peace and prosperity we saw along the way from the imperial capital to the border town. Cao Hong couldn't help but want to curse: Damn! You owboy haven't gone out for hundreds of years?!
The Demon King and her Demon Dragon Army have been defeated for more than 30 years, and they have gone through civil war, national division, warcraft uprising, alliance northern expedition, and the second magical technological revolution. Therefore, Cao Hong's first reaction to this world was, "Are you sure this is the magical world of the brave and the demon king?"
There are high-rise buildings, business is prosperous, traffic is busy, people are in a hurry, suits and leather, holding phones in their hands, and talking loudly about how much money the business is. People live a wealthy life, and their food and clothing are infinitely close to New York in the 21st century. Occasionally, a group of girls pass by in front of them, and they are also full of benefits with beautiful legs and breasts.
If the vehicles on the road were dragging by various monsters, if the pets you were walking on the human-shaped track were all weird monsters, if there weren't airplanes in the sky, and if there weren't any huge birds flying by in the hanging basket, Cao Hong wouldn't believe that this would be a different world.
I was in a daze for a long time, and the propaganda girl who was passing by stuffed a leaflet in her hand.
Cao Hong subconsciously glanced.
Good news! Good news! Falman Supermarket celebrates its anniversary today, with 50% off all products, and magical appliances only need 30% off. No three or four thousand, no one or two thousand. Just 998! It cost 998! Take the magical appliance set home!
Cao Hong was speechless. This strong sense of déjà shattered the energy of complaining that was about to come out.
The sample pictures of the promotional products at the back were followed by the street sign to this supermarket, and took a good walk up and down.
Cao Hong was finally sure that the lives of civilians in this world are nothing different from those on earth. Their second magical and technological revolution seemed to be the electrical revolution on earth.
The only difference is that there is no power plant in this world. Because almost everyone has more or less magical energy in their body. If they have electricity, they don’t need a power plant at all.
After visiting the imperial capital for two days, Cao Hong finally confirmed that if he wanted to be a big demon in such a prosperous and stable empire, he would basically not think of any other result except for his death.
The truth is the same as the modern world. If you want to be a big devil in the 21st century, even if you want to be a superpower that goes against the sky, you will probably end up tragic.
Americans have cited several such examples, such as Doctor Octopus, Dark Spider-Man, Super Clown, etc., at most, they are super criminals!
The difficulty is not a little bit!
After sighing, Cao Hong decided to start with learning! If you want to destroy the enemy, understanding the enemy is the first step!
Chapter completed!
