The Age Of God's Mansion: A Group Of Wonderful Believers At The Beginning

Chapter 233 This Place Is Too Clean, Caravan

a week later.

The upstream village is also stepping up construction these days.

The rich second generation even handed over the real things to their apprentices and came here to direct them in person.

The entire upstream village is constantly changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Come here with the first adventurous people.

In order to prevent outsiders from interfering with the construction, Yun Chuan opened up a market on the side of the valley fortress close to the upstream village.

On this day, a convoy ushered in at the entrance of the valley leading to the upstream village.

The carriages are connected together like a dragon moving forward.

The leading one is also the most luxurious carriage in the entire fleet.

Two snow-white horses pull a finely crafted carriage.

Various exquisite patterns are carved around the outer body.

Judging from the overall structure of the carriage, there is no joint connection, indicating that the entire carriage is made of a single log.

The doors of the carriages are front-opening, and in addition to sliding doors, curtains are hung on the left and right sides.

At this moment, for ventilation, the compartment door is wide open.

On the ground in the carriage was a piece of fur of an unknown animal.

The whole is golden yellow, which looks extravagant and compelling.

The ones sitting in the carriage were the first batch of Ye Lao who came into contact with White.

At this moment, apart from him, there is also his eldest son Ye Guohua in the carriage.

"Father, is that place really as good as you said in your letter?"

Ye Guohua, a businessman, has settled in Andong City for a long time.

This time because I was called back by a letter from my father, the letter also described how good the things in the upper reaches of the village were.

He almost praised the other party to the sky.

Of course he didn't believe it.

But his father asked him to go back to his hometown.

As a filial son, he should listen to his father's expectations, and in his heart, he just wanted to come back to see his father, and by the way, find out who gave his father the ecstasy soup.

But I didn't expect that after returning to my hometown, not only my father became possessed, but also a group of people in the town went crazy.

Only after inquiring about the ins and outs did I believe it a little bit.

But he still has some doubts. A while ago, he heard that Lord Anthony sent 20,000 troops to wipe out the village that seems to be the upstream village.

Is the other party all right? Or the army found the treasure there?

After that, a large caravan is being formed in the town to go to the upstream village.

Ye Lao asked him to come back to travel with the caravan, because of the experience in the upper reaches of the village.

Seeing the two iconic mountain peaks getting closer and closer to the upper reaches of the village, my father's expectant eyes made me speechless for a while.

"Father, are you looking forward to the upper reaches of the village so much? As for?"

Ye Lao turned around and glared at him when he heard it.

"You know what a fart! There are all treasures there, only what you can't think of, and there is nothing they lack. The business you do in Andong City is not worth the value of a stall."

Although he looked at his father's collections.

He also admitted that the other party did have a lot of good things.

But this kind of thing with collection value is sold for a little less, and there may be as many as Chinese cabbage.

He still thought in his heart that the other party was just talking nonsense in order to create influence.

However, it is not easy for him to directly refute his father.

"Yes, yes, just don't be disappointed when the time comes!"

Seeing his son's perfunctory attitude, he was so angry that his old beard straightened.

I usually look at my elder son as a shrewd businessman, why is he so confused now?

He also didn't want to continue arguing with his son, seeing is believing, it would naturally be convincing.

The convoy moved slowly through the valley.

When reaching the end of the valley, a fortress appeared in front of everyone.

The 10-meter-high city wall blocked everyone's footsteps.

In the middle of the city wall is a large double iron gate.

There is a convoy coming out of it at the moment, but it seems to be checking.

Two soldiers stood on each side of the left and right, ready to fight.

And a soldier in the middle, holding something in his hand, glanced at the army that came out.

Following the principle of entering from the left and exiting from the right, the two convoys did not cause congestion.

When passing the city gate, Ye Lao got out of the carriage and sat on the co-pilot, pointed to the guard who was checking in the middle, and asked curiously to the guard next to him.

"Big brother, what are they doing?"

The guard saw that the other party was an old man, and he didn't look impatient.

"We don't charge any fees to enter here, but when we go out, we have to pay a 6% tax on the goods we carry.

No surprises about paying taxes.

Almost every city needs to pay taxes, but the price paid is different.

Some cities even have to hand in when entering and leaving.

"Then what taxes do we have to pay when we go to the upstream village to conduct transactions? Can you tell me?"

"You only need to pay the city tax, and you don't need to pay anything else!"

This surprised Ye Lao.

Wouldn't that be the same as having no tax at all?

It is necessary to know that for normal relative transactions, at least 20-30% of the local tax must be exploited.

Unexpectedly, the total tax here is only 6%.

"Thank you brother for explaining."

A silver coin was handed over as a token of thanks.

The guard was also polite, and directly took the silver coin and put it in his pocket.

Except for the man who was checking the passing vehicles, the guards here were all knights who had come to encircle and suppress the upper reaches of the village.

Here they also need to live, so there is extra income, of course they will not refuse.

The convoy passed through the 10-meter-wide city cave.

When it was illuminated by light, a noise came from inside.

In front of everyone, there is a huge square.

Several roads are intertwined.

There are rows of shops on both sides of the road.

It can be seen that many people are wearing the same clothes as them, coming in and out.

There are still many pedestrians on the road, talking constantly.

Seeing their faces, some were very excited, some were very annoyed, and some were even in a hurry, as if they were rushing to do something.

A busy scene surprised everyone.

Usually, this situation can only be seen in Anthony City.

I didn't expect such a bustling trading market to appear in this unknown upstream village.

But judging from the surrounding buildings, everything here is new.

The description has just been built.

Although it looks very prosperous, the number of people is still relatively small compared to the big city.

At this moment, a handsome man came from behind the convoy.

"Old Ye, let's part here. I asked Ada to stay at the city gate and be in charge of contacting. As for the time to go back, we will decide when we arrive. How do you like this?"

"Okay, you guys go to work, don't worry about me, a bad old man. I'll just wander around!"

"Haha, well, let's go first!"

After the team went up, Ye Lao turned his head and shouted to his eldest son.

"Let's go, let him go down for a stroll!"

Ye Guohua had been observing the surroundings just now, and when he heard that his father was going to go shopping, he became interested and jumped off the carriage.

Supporting Ye Lao again, he got off the carriage and said.

"Father, is there anywhere you want to go?"

0...asking for flowers...

Old Ye smiled and shook his head.

"Not yet, let's go around!"

They walked a few steps and stopped suddenly. Ye Lao looked at the ground curiously.

I stomped vigorously with my feet and found that there were no traces of being trampled on.

"Hey...!! How is this road made? I didn't expect it to be so hard."

Hearing his father's question, Ye Guohua noticed the situation on the road.

All the road surfaces are like a whole, and there will be a small gap every other distance.

It's like a piece of huge stones spliced ​​together.

And almost every piece is exactly the same, which makes him feel a little unbelievable.

If it wasn't for his father's reminder, he really didn't notice this situation.

"It seems to be carved from a big stone, but the scale is really big, and I don't know how they did it. It can be so neat.

Ye Lao glanced around and found that every street was exactly the same and sighed.

"Have you noticed that these roads are not only neat but also clean. It's like two worlds from the garbage-like roads in Anthony City."

He is not exaggerating at all.

000

The roads in Anthony City are paved with large bluestone strips.

When it rains, except for people who can stand on the bluestone strip, the surrounding area is full of water.

And beside the road, there are feces poured out by every household at any time.

The smell was simply unbearable, and they didn't even smell a trace of it here.

"It's so clean here that people don't dare to set foot..."

At this moment, a voice came from not far away.

"The carriage in front, don't go any further!"

Several people searched for the sound.

I saw a team of five soldiers walking towards them.

This made Ye Lao worry for a while, thinking that he and others made some mistakes.

Ye Guohua even stood in front of Ye Lao, and didn't dare to make a sound, just quietly watching the other party come up to him.

The patrolling soldiers continued to speak.

"Why are you in a daze? Hurry up and park the car over there."

The direction that the patrolling soldiers pointed was close to the right side of the city wall. At this time, there were carriages moving along the city wall at that position.

It was only then that he realized that maybe the carriage was not allowed to run around at will, and at the same time he was relieved.

Ye Guohua stepped forward and asked.

"Excuse me, don't carriages be allowed to roam around here?"

"Yes, because horses often defecate and defecate everywhere, in order to keep the market clean and tidy, the carriages will be parked in a fixed place. Didn't the city gate tell you?

"Uh...! No, maybe they forgot!"

This is true, the guard at the city gate forgot to mention it after being asked by Ye Lao.

"Okay, then hurry up and get the carriage there, don't dirty the ground.

"Okay, let's go right away."

The patrolling soldier said a word and left.

Ye Guohua said to the driver.

"You go and park the carriage and find us later."

"yes!"

The coachman drove the carriage and left in the direction the guard pointed at just now.

Ye Lao smiled wryly and shook his head.

"It seems that there are many rules here, maybe this is the reason why this place is clean."

"Yeah, actually I think this is pretty good, at least a clean and tidy environment, people living here will feel very happy."

"That's right, let's just walk around here, and the military doctor by the way."

"it is good!"

Ye Guohua stepped forward to support his father, and began to wander around. .
