Chapter 1020 The enemy's road is narrow
For a long time, while fighting against the Hidden Family, the Galaxy Fleet has also been studying the Lingxu Realm where the Hidden Family is located.
In recent years, they have captured many prisoners from the Hidden Family. Through the mouths of the prisoners, they have learned a lot of basic situations in the Lingxu Realm, such as the ruling system, economic conditions, coins, language and many other things.
Of course, because the prisoners were very strict, the information received by the Galaxy Fleet was scattered and not comprehensive. They only knew some big things, and there were many specific details, so they must have known very little.
They knew that the common language in Lingxu Realm was Chinese, so now Jiang Wanting can communicate with Li Qingyu and others without barriers, which also shows that Lingxu Realm and China had dated a long time ago.
There is no saying of a country in the Lingxu Realm, only a family. There are thirty-six families in the huge Lingxu Realm, which is exactly the same as the number of thirty-six Heavenly Gangs. The family sects are often built on a mountain with steep and beautiful and rich spiritual energy, which facilitates the family's geniuses to practice martial arts and continuously advance.
There are several cities under the jurisdiction of the sect. There are city lords in the city. Generally, there are outer disciples of the sect. Each city has several towns under the jurisdiction of the town. There are town lords in the town, and the registered disciples of the sect are the town. The town governs several surrounding villages. There are village heads, and the villagers choose them themselves and obey the town lords.
The basic currency of Lingxu Realm is similar to the ancient Chinese currency system. It is divided into copper coins, silver, and gold. The exchange rates between them are not fixed. The exchange rates under the rule of each family are different. Even the regions under the rule of the same family are different in the exchange rates between the three currencies in different periods.
Generally speaking, the purchasing power of a thousand copper coins is about one tael of silver, and the purchasing power of ten taels of silver is about one tael of gold.
There is also a kind of hard currency among each sect, that is, the spirit crystal. How much gold is worth depends on everyone's mood.
In Lingxu Realm, an ordinary family earns only five taels of silver per year.
The eldest prince of the town lord asked Jiang Wanqing to compensate him for 500 taels of silver. The Jiang family worked hard for a hundred years before they could barely pay back the debt!
It's dark enough! This is the rhythm that will force the Jiang family to death!
So, everyone was shocked at the moment, and Deng Yuqi even cursed directly: "Parase, what kind of divine beast is this smoke-squirting beast? It's so valuable?"
"Yes, sister, what is this smoke-squirting beast? We have never seen it before!" Lin Jingru also asked strangely, she was really curious.
Not to mention them, even Li Qingyu was confused. He had personally interrogated Bai Chen and others, and had never heard the other party mention the smoke-squirting beast.
"It is said that the smoke-squirting beast is rare. It is the first time I have seen it. It is not unusual for you to see it before. However, that thing is really strange. It is called the smoke-squirting beast. It is actually not a beast. There is a layer of metal skin on the outside, and the light can be seen. There are lights in the front and back, which can emit dazzling light, just like the little sun. Our donkey cart smashed the smoke-squirting beast's headlights. This thing ran and roared, and the screams were also very loud, because once it ran, its tail kept spraying smoke, so people called it the smoke-squirting beast. Anyway, it was a strange thing in Guli. By the way, it still had four wheels. The wheels were very thick, but not big, and it was not as big as the wheels of our big cart."
Jiang Wanting said while constantly gestured.
Li Qingyu and the others looked at each other with a look. After a moment, Deng Yuqi couldn't help but complain: "My grass! She is not talking about cars, right?"
Li Qingyu nodded and said, "It's probably a car. Over the years, the Hidden Family has been constantly introducing new products and new technologies from us. It is said that there are small items on our side, such as mobile phones, TVs, etc., but unfortunately there is no electricity here and it cannot be used! It's not uncommon for them to get cars over."
Jiang Wanting was confused when she heard this and asked with a confused look on her face: "What are you talking about... a car? What is a car? What is a cell phone? a TV? What is that?"
"Oh, the car we mentioned just now is the smoke-squirting beast you mentioned, and we have seen it. Because that thing can spray smoke on its butt and looks like a cart, everyone over us calls it cars. As for mobile phones and TVs, they are all new things from us, and it's useless." Li Qingyu immediately explained casually.
"Does the smoke-squirting beast look like a big car? It doesn't look like a car? What a weird name." Jiang Wanting said to herself.
"Haha, the people over us are quite humorous and always like to give some weird names. You are still called the Smoke Beast. The young master asked you to compensate you for 500 taels of silver, but you can't afford it, so you ran out to find a fuss?" Li Qingyu said again.
Jiang Wanting sighed again and continued, "We can't afford to sell all the people and the property. My father and I knelt in front of Hu Zuo and begged hard, hoping that he would let us go, but Hu Zuo first refused to let go. Later, seeing that I was a little pretty, I suddenly remembered something, saying that Sima Qing, the young master of the Sima family, was choosing a concubine, and he wanted to send me to the Sima family. If I could be taken by Sima Qing, he would not only not have to compensate us for the losses of the smoke-squirting beast, but also to our house to report the good news."
Li Qingyu immediately got an important message from Jiang Wanting: This area is under the jurisdiction of the Sima family!
Li Qingyu is familiar with the Sima family. His first contact with the Hidden Family was at the martial arts conference on Lei Guang Island. That time, the leader of the Hidden Family was Sima Bai of the Sima family.
As far as he knows, there is only one Sima family in the Hidden Family, so the Sima family that Jiang Wanting mentioned must be the Sima family that Li Qingyu knew!
Later, at the battle at the top of Chaoyang Peak, the leader was the Sima family named Sima Hong!
This time I came to Lingxu Realm, but I didn’t run to the Bai family’s nest, but I ran to the Sima family’s nest. It was a narrow road for enemies!
"You don't agree to be a concubine for the Sima family's son? Why is this?" Xiaozhu asked in confusion.
If such a thing is placed in the first space, it would be a good marriage to a wealthy family. I wonder how many women look forward to it every day!
Although my concubine is not a main hall, she has a status at least. In the first space, many women don’t even want the status, so they just want to get into the bed of a wealthy young man!
However, Jiang Wanting would rather die than marry into a wealthy family!
This is very honest, but if she doesn't agree to the other party, her family will be in trouble.
If you don’t agree in this situation, it makes people feel a little confused.
Jiang Wanting's face was filled with a strong resentment and said, "I don't know that Mr. Sima practiced the evil technique of collecting yin and replenishing yang. It was called collecting concubines. In fact, it was to find a cauldron. After following him, it would take one or two years to a month or two, and it would be exhausted! And after marrying him, he would suffer inhuman torture every day, no matter day or night."
"A bunch of bastards, beasts!" Lin Jingru's face turned red with anger. She didn't expect that there was such a thing in Lingxu Realm!
"When Hu Zuo saw that my father refused to agree, he asked my father to pay back the money immediately. When we had no money, they beat my father and broke my father's legs on the spot! I was afraid that they would beat my father to death, so I agreed to their request, but I also made a request that I must send my father back to my hometown first. Those people knew that I couldn't escape, so they agreed and just took the cart of charcoal and donkeys in our house for themselves."
"When I pulled my father home, it was already dark and it was raining heavily. I cried and pulled my father home alone. I didn't know how many times I fell on the road, and how many times I fell. My father tried his best to stop and put him down. Seeing that I didn't agree, he never shouted again, but just sat in the car stubbornly. From the time his legs were broken to when he went home, he didn't shout a pain..."
