Chapter 1088 North City

"Why?" Zhang Ain asked, the house is cheap, why not buy it?

The waiter replied: "Beicheng is where those who have escaped from the tribe live, and I live there."

Zhang Weing suddenly realized that no matter what clan the escapees were from, it was still a place where low-class people lived. Soldiers were proud and would certainly not live there.

The fact was as he guessed. The waiter continued: "Mr. Meng's family has forgiven us and allowed us to escape from slavery. From now on, like you, we can walk freely under the sky. We can also live in this city. We live here." The place is in Beicheng, and I won’t live there.”

After being freed from slavery, wouldn't the hierarchy still be clear? They are the same as the lowest race and have to serve soldiers all the time? Zhang Ai sighed secretly and asked: "Is the house with 100,000 spirit stones you mentioned close to Beicheng?"

The waiter said yes, and then added: "The houses closest to Beicheng and to the living area of ​​the defectors are mostly sold for 100,000 spirit stones, but even then, few people live in them."

Naturally, there are few people living there, and soldiers are the proudest people. How can they allow themselves to live with their former slaves? However, Zhang Ping did not have this taboo, and immediately asked: "If I want to buy a house like that, what other procedures are required?"

The waiter nodded and said: "You and the owner of the house must go to the city lord's mansion to register and apply for a household certificate. From now on, you need to pay a thousand spiritual stones every month."

A thousand spiritual stones? The city lord is so greedy! However, Zhang was afraid that he would not say it out loud. No matter what, he had to find a place to stay and live there for a month first, so he said to the waiter: "As for the cheapest houses you mentioned, do you know who is selling them?"

The waiter smiled and said: "Those houses are for sale every day, but they never sell out. Those who have left the tribe cannot afford them. People like Mr. don't bother to buy them. They can be bought at any time."

Zhang Ain laughed secretly when he heard this. This kind of house is just right for me, so he said, "Would it be convenient if you could take me there?" The waiter replied, "You don't need anyone to take you there. Just go and find someone near Beicheng." Just ask and you’ll know.”

Zhang was afraid that he would not want to wander around without any purpose, so he said to the waiter: "I ask you to take me there. The reward is two hundred spirit stones." The waiter hesitated. He was a cultivator. Even if he wanted these two hundred spirit stones, he would not be able to do it. You have to be a little reserved. But Zhang Ain then said: "Five hundred spirit stones, you take me there."

Why are you hesitating? The waiter immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you sir." After saying that, he didn't leave and only looked at Zhang Afraid.

Zhang Ain pointed out the five hundred spiritual stones with a smile and said: "These are yours. If the house is satisfactory, I will thank you again."

The waiter accepted the five hundred spirit stones and immediately ran to ask for leave from the shop owner, taking Zhang Awei to Beicheng.

The inn where Zhang Wen lived was in Nancheng. Along the way, he passed many shops or shopping malls. There may be slaves doing business in the market, but in all the restaurants, inns and other places, no slaves were enjoying themselves. Able to serve the military clan.

Zhang Ain looked at it and shook his head secretly, especially on the street. There were many animal carriages waiting for guests. The drivers were all slaves, and the people riding in the carriages were of course soldiers. This made him confused. He could obviously fly, so why did he have to ride in a beast cart to make a show?

But the fact is that before reaching the god level, the higher the level of cultivation, the less the soldiers like flying or walking. They go out to eat, drink or play. When they have enough leisure, they must spend some spiritual stones to ride on the beast cart. Going home may be a good thing, or it may be a kind of enjoyment, but Zhang is afraid that he won't understand.

The waiter took Zhang Ao all the way to the vicinity of Beicheng. When he entered the Beicheng area, a long street suddenly appeared in front of him. There was no one on the street. On one side of the street were high-rise houses and on the other side were low courtyard walls.

After arriving here, the waiter stopped, pointed to the high-rise houses and said: "Most of these houses can be bought for one hundred thousand spiritual stones." Then he pointed to the low houses across the street and said: "Counting from this row of houses, all the way. Within the city walls is the home of those who have escaped.”

Zhang Ai asked curiously: "Why is there no one on the street?" The waiter smiled helplessly: "Masters like Mr. Ru do not want to live here, so the house is empty, and we are also unwilling to live here. We In our own life, due to our limited qualifications, we are unable to communicate with Mr.’s clan members, which means we can’t stand on the stage.”

This sentence is put very tactfully. To put it bluntly, even if we are slaves, after we break away from the clan, we will have our own lives, and there is no need to live by your faces.

Zhang Ping just pretended that he didn't understand and asked with a smile: "I think this house is good. Where is the owner?"

The waiter pointed to a row of houses on the south side of the street and said: "There is a jade sign at the door. As long as you ring it, the owner of the house will appear. Then you and the owner will go to the City Lord's Mansion to complete the procedures."

Zhang Ai nodded and said, "Thank you." He pointed out two hundred spirit stones and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Of course, the waiter accepted the spirit stone unceremoniously and said: "I have to go back to work, so I won't accompany you sir."

Zhang Ain nodded with a smile and said nothing. The waiter then left.

Now Zhang Ai was left alone, strolling slowly along this long street. Most of the houses on the south side of the street are two- or three-story attics, with a courtyard outside. They are large, but equally desolate, and have obviously been uninhabited for a long time.

Zhang Ai took a few steps and found a house closest to the east. There was nothing but silence. He walked around and looked around. Only this courtyard was the quietest, so he knocked on the jade sign outside the courtyard door with a snap of his fingers, and then stood quietly and waited.

After more than ten breaths passed, a tall man appeared in front of him, with only a tuft of hair left on his head. There was a soldier's unique weapon bead hidden in the hair.

After seeing Zhang Awei, the big man asked coldly: "Do you want to buy a house?" Zhang Awei nodded and said yes. The big man still said coldly: "Eighty thousand spiritual stones, no matter the price. If you can buy it, buy it. If you can't buy it, get out."

Zhang was afraid of hearing this and laughed, this big man was quite interesting. /Although he spoke rudely, he didn't care at all. He pointed out the 80,000 spirit stones and said, "I bought it. Please come with me to the city lord's mansion."

The big man took the spirit stone without even looking at it. He kept saying coldly: "Let's go." After saying the word "go", the figure walked south. Zhang Awei shook his head and chuckled, then quickly followed.

The next thing is much simpler. I go to the city lord's palace to find someone to handle the matter. When Zhang Wen receives the brand new household certificate, he will have an official identity in the city.

Because he has an extremely pure military aura, from the strong man in hiding to the soldier guards who went through the formalities, there was no doubt about him and the matter was settled as soon as possible. The next thing is to take the two girls to move in.

Nowadays, the two girls have become much uglier. Not to mention anything else, just one of them has a slightly bloated body, which has already dispelled the lust of many military cultivators. As a soldier, there is no man who is not handsome, and there is no woman who is not beautiful. There are not enough handsome men and beauties all day long. How can anyone care about two fat women? They only thought that these two slightly fat women were outcast women of a certain race and didn't care.

So after Zhang Wen returned to the inn, he easily took the two girls out, walked on the street, and finally arrived at the house he bought safe and sound.

Eighty thousand spiritual stones, a saving of twenty thousand more than expected. When the three of them entered the house, the first thing they did was to set up a barrier. Zhang Aif first turned this house into the most secret place on the street, and then let the two women decorate the house.

These two crazy women brought all the things from the previous residence, and it took them a long time to dress them up. Then Taohua went to Zhang Awei to complain, saying that she was tired and in trouble and needed comfort.

Zhang was afraid that he would not even dare to comfort her, so he quickly pretended not to hear her and fled to the third floor attic to sleep.

This day passed quickly, and the following days also passed quickly. The street was just deserted. For ten consecutive days, there was not a single living person on the street. Taohua came to Zhang Awei to complain: "What kind of house did you buy? I stood on the second floor and looked at it for two days. Except for ourselves, we never saw a living thing."

Zhang Ping also found it strange. After all, it is a city or a street. No matter how desolate it is, it cannot be so desolate, right? He scanned it with his spiritual sense and found that as long as he passed this street, whether going north or south, there would be many people gathering together, either buying or selling, or talking. In short, it was very lively. Beicheng, in particular, is so lively that it makes people yearn for it.

Now after listening to Taohua's complaint, Zhang Ping smiled and said: "It's not lively here, we can go to a lively place." As he spoke, he took out 10,000 spirit stones and said: "Let's go to the auction house. Don't you want to buy something? Go and buy it. that is."

Taohua became happy, holding ten thousand spirit stones and said with a smile: "You are finally sensible."

Zhang was afraid of being depressed after hearing this, but depression could not decide Taohua's thoughts, so the next day, the three of them went to the city's auction house to buy things.

There are several auction houses in this city. After all, it is a city of 300,000 cultivators, so it is normal to have a few more. The city is divided into four districts, and each district has an auction house where items are auctioned every day. There is no need to verify qualifications. Anyone can go in and auction items.

Selling items is a bit more complicated and must be approved by the auction house before it can be sold. Buying things is much simpler. As long as you enter the auction house, you can bid at will. The auction house is not afraid of you defaulting on your bill. Those who can default on your bill are all capable experts.

Zhang was afraid that because of his pure military aura, no one would doubt his identity, so he and his two girls easily came to Nancheng Auction House.

The auction house here is not as troublesome as the mortal world. You have to wear a cloak and hide your aura. Here, you can come wherever you want and no one cares about what you want to do. After all, with soldiers dominating this place, no one is worried about accidents.

When your cultivation reaches a certain level, there will naturally be soldiers who will cause trouble for you, and they will not tolerate the presence of masters. So the auction house's business is not very good. It's just that the city lord ordered it to be opened every day.

Zhang Wen and his two daughters easily entered the auction house and looked at many things, which were all used to increase their cultivation. Zhang Ping just looked at it in a daze. First, he didn't recognize these things; second, he didn't have the spiritual stones to buy these things.

Although Taohua held ten thousand spirit stones, she didn't see anything that interested her at all, so she naturally left disappointed. After the three of them returned home, they came to Zhang Awei to complain: "What a broken place, there is nothing."
