Chapter 49
In Douluo Continent, cities with a general population of less than 200 million can only be regarded as small cities. For example, Notting City, which Holy Soul Village relies on, is a small city. When the population exceeds 200 million, it begins to enter the ranks of intermediate cities. Tuocheng is a medium-sized city.
As for a large city, it can only be considered a large city when its population exceeds 500 million.
Further up, there are super-large cities with a population of over [-] million, such as Wuhun City, where the two imperial capitals and the main hall of Wuhun Palace are located.
No matter what kind of city it is, the distance between the two is about hundreds of kilometers, which means that generally one city controls thousands or even thousands of square kilometers of vast land.
Of course, not everyone can live in the city. There are scattered villages more than ten or dozens of kilometers away from these cities, where people who cannot live in the city due to poverty or other reasons Among the civilians there, Holy Soul Village and Shrek's original village were one of them.
The farthest distance between these villages and the city is generally no more than a hundred kilometers. It is rare to see one that can exceed this distance. Even if there are, they generally do not exist for too long or disappear.
The main reason for this is that this continent is still too vast.
Although humans are well-deserved as the overlords on this continent, the total population is only a little over 1 million. Imagine that in Tang Yin's previous life, China had a population of 13 billion, and there was still a large area of land that was not developed.
And what about Douluo Continent?
The area controlled by a mere Wuhun City is equivalent to a quarter of China, and the land occupied by this Wuhun City is only one-tenth of the mainland area. The area of about two and a half Huaxia, ten With one-third of the population, what would this continent look like?
To put it bluntly, although the current overlords of the entire continent are humans, there are still many wild beasts or spirit beasts living in the wild. The entire continent is still in an era where humans and beasts coexist.
Although the management range of each city is hundreds of kilometers, the effective distance they can really control is only a few hundred kilometers. No matter how many kilometers it is, they will have more than they want but not enough power, and the rest of the place will still be occupied by wild beasts.
The reason for this result is that there are insufficient soldiers in each city.
It has been said before that the current life background of Douluo Continent is very similar to ancient Europe in Tang Yin's previous life on Earth. In other words, it can be summed up in one sentence - insufficient productivity!
With today's productivity, it generally takes the productivity of ten to twenty ordinary people to support a soldier who has been trained all year round.
Take a medium-sized city as an example. Even if it has a population of 400 million, its permanent military strength will not exceed 20, and is more likely to be maintained at around 15.
In addition to the lack of productivity, there was also the factor that the emperor was worried about the rebellion of the city managers, which directly caused the city to have insufficient control over its affiliated territories.
Although these cities conduct a sweep of wild beasts and spirit beasts in the territory every year, half of the 15 troops must be left to guard the city, and the other half can destroy the beast herds in the territory. How big can a mere tens of thousands of troops sweep away? An area?
Being able to guarantee a safe zone with a radius of hundreds of kilometers is pretty good.
The number of armies in large cities may be larger, but it will not exceed 30, while the number of armies in small cities may only be [-], or even less, and it is unknown how many of them are on the free payroll.
Therefore, if the towns outside the city want to live a more stable life, they can only live closer to the city and within the effective protection range of the city's army.
This is the current situation of life for ordinary people in Douluo Continent today!
Lowering his body, Tang Yin lay on the back of the galloping dragon horse, pulled down his hood, reached behind his neck and pulled his long hair out from under the cloak. The long hair danced wildly in the strong wind, like a blue cloak.
I had to put a lot of effort into hiding my long hair before wearing Chongkai. In the end, I had no choice but to tie it into a ponytail and tuck it directly into my back. The restraint of Chongkai and the bulging hair on my back made it really uncomfortable. .
It's fine now. I've left the imperial capital. I don't have to wear that heavy suit anymore, so I naturally feel relaxed.
Huishan glanced at the imperial capital, which only had a vague outline, and a smile appeared on Tang Yin's mouth under the mask.
If his prediction was correct, Emperor Xingluo had already issued an order to remove Fang Xing from their posts and recall them to the imperial capital.
I didn't mean to trick them, but these two guys were always like the stones in the pit, smelly and hard, and refused to accept my bribes, so I had no choice but to let the two of them go home to retire.
As for Zhou Mian, Tang Yin didn't like him. This guy only hinted twice before he began to waver. How could Tang Yin be reassured by someone who betrayed him so easily? Who can guarantee when he will betray him next time? .
Besides, if there was no secret matchmaking by "Tianji", how could Wuhundian bribe Zhou Mian so easily.
However, Tang Yin really didn't expect that in addition to the few people who were secretly matched by "Tianji", Wuhundian also successfully bribed several other powerful figures. It was really...
Nice job!
After these people die, their vacant positions will be just right for Tang Yin to arrange the next move.
Regardless of whether it was the Tiandou Empire or the Star Luo Empire, Tang Yin didn't completely believe that what he was about to hand over to Tang San was an invincible force on the continent. The second Spirit Hall, what if these guys knew the truth? How could you help him so selflessly, send him money, resources, and people?
Who wants to welcome a more powerful tiger after just driving away a wolf?
Therefore, he could only reluctantly trap the three forces of Tiandou Empire, Star Luo Empire, and Wuhun Palace together. By the time the three families really discovered it, it was already too late. His power had basically taken shape. Even if the three families wanted to resist by then, By that time, there will be more than enough ambition but not enough energy.
The more he thought about it, the more the corners of Tang Yin's mouth twitched...
As Tang Yin expected, after losing his temper, the emperor issued an order to transfer Fang Xing and his two men back and send three more confidants to take over the legion. Since Zhou Mian can be bribed, who can guarantee these two people? Is it also safe?
Even if the two of them were not bribed by Wuhun Palace, who can be sure that they were not bribed by the "King of Slaughter"?
He will not tolerate any instability.
Outside the palace, Prince Davis, who had just changed his clothes, was looking at the avenue outside the palace with his fiancée Zhu Zhuyun in a daze.
Originally, after he took a shower and changed his clothes, he hurriedly brought his fiancée over. He wanted to wait for Tang Yin, the "Grand Duke of Bauhinia", to come out, invite him to a banquet to wash away the dust, and see if he could get it. The other party was supportive, but unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, he got the news that the Grand Duke had left.
In other words, all the preparations he had made were in vain. He had already left without even a single peck on him, and he completely regarded him as the prince of the empire as nothing...
At the gate of the imperial capital, three figures rushed away with the emperor's order, preparing to replace Fang Xing and the others.
As for how long these three people can resist Tang Yin's bribery or conspiracy...
Only God knows.
At around two o'clock in the morning the next day, the walls of Giant Rock City were already in sight. Although Tang Yin's order was to arrive before dawn, Mo, a guy who often thought about Tang Yin's orders at random, secretly gave the order to speed up.
The most intuitive result of this order is that when they arrived near Giant Rock City, except for Tang Yin's dragon horse, other people's horses were more or less frothing. If they don't rest, these horses will soon be Tired to death.
Stopping in a forest not far outside the city, Tang Yin turned over and dismounted, looked at the city wall not far away and thought to himself.
At this time, the city gate must have been closed, and it will not be opened until the sun rises in the morning. It would not be difficult if he revealed his identity as the "Grand Duke of Bauhinia" and ordered the defenders to open the city gate now, but this would definitely Expose his whereabouts.
So Tang Yin thought about it and chose another method.
Just like Tang Yin went to school in his previous life, when he came back late, the school gate was closed and inaccessible. So at this time, he could only choose a very simple method to get in.
――――Climb the wall!
Although there are soldiers patrolling the walls of Giant Rock City from time to time, these are just ordinary people. They can't trouble Tang Yin. He is comparable to a titled Douluo. If he can still be discovered by ordinary soldiers when he climbs the city wall, then he might as well go find a piece of tofu to hit him. It would be better to travel through time again.
After taking a look at the people behind him who were quietly waiting for orders, Tang Yin directly gave the order to the "killing team" to wait on the spot, waiting for him and Mo to come out of Giant Rock City.
Tang Yin was going to take Mo in with him. He still had some things that Mo needed to deal with.
With silence, the two people passed the city wall silently without being noticed at all. The soldiers guarding the city had no idea that two people had sneaked into the city in front of them just now.
"Mo, go find Gu Yun and tell her that I'm waiting for her in the 'underground black market'. As for where to meet, she will naturally know."
Nodding silently, the two disappeared into the night, while Tang Yin walked towards the slums in the city.
He wanted to meet a person, a person who walked out of the city of killing, and whom even he, the "King of Killing", admired greatly.
After turning left and right in the slum for a long time, Tang Yin came to a dilapidated courtyard and gently knocked on the door that seemed likely to fall down with just a little force.
Tang Yin wants to enter the underground black market of Giant Rock City to meet that person, and this is the contact point left by that person.
"Sir... Hello, who are you looking for?" The door opened, and a little girl in her teens poked her head out. She was startled when she saw Tang Yin, and then said timidly.
Tang Yin didn't say anything, but took out a token from the system package and showed it in front of the little girl.
Seeing this token, the little girl's expression changed, and the cowardice on her face disappeared. She turned directly to respect, turned around and let the passage pass: "Sir, please come in."
Tang Yin walked into the courtyard. The little girl stretched out her head and glanced outside the courtyard, then quickly closed the door.
"Sir, please come down." The little girl took the lead towards the dilapidated house in the courtyard that was on the verge of collapse.
Entering the bedroom, the little girl clicked on the corner of the bed, and then the bed and the floor moved away, revealing a deep passage.
"Sir, please." The little girl took the lead and walked into the passage, and then the fire lit up. When Tang Yin came down, there was already a torch in the little girl's hand.
Looking at the little girl leading the way, Tang Yin raised his eyebrows. A little girl who looked to be in her teens actually had the cultivation level of a Soul Saint. How did that guy do it?Or where did that guy find such a talent?
Although she looks more than ten years old, Tang Yin knows that the little girl is definitely older. From the smell, this little girl is definitely not younger than her alcoholic father.
Born a dwarf?Immortality?Or something else?
After walking out of the passage, what appeared in front of Tang Yin was a huge and brightly lit street. The buildings on both sides of the street could not be seen at a glance.
The streets were full of people walking around. From time to time, people walked into the buildings on both sides of the street, and then there was the sound of fierce bargaining. After a while, some people walked out satisfied, while others got nothing.
The black market where this giant rock city is located is the largest black market in the three nearby cities. Countless shady items are circulated here. A large number of people come here every day to buy dirt or sell stolen goods.
Tang Yin was a little surprised. He originally thought that this underground black market was just a secret den for selling stolen goods. The so-called "underground" was just a metaphor. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be an "underground" black market.
The entire black market exists in a huge underground cave. A large number of artificial traces can be seen on both sides of the cave, so it is known that the cave must have been artificially widened.
Following the footsteps of the "little girl", Tang Yin came to the tallest building in the underground black market here. It was a third-floor building covered with black lanterns. All pedestrians stayed away. Even if they looked at it, they only dared to peek a few times. Small building.
Following the footsteps of the "little girl" in front of him, Tang Yin stepped lightly into the small building, leaving a large group of people behind him who couldn't believe it.
Seeing Tang Yin step into the small building, the crowd outside the building began to speculate on Tang Yin's identity, wanting to know what qualifications this person had to enter the most terrifying place in the black market.
On the first and second floors, Tang Yin saw a lot of busy people, but unexpectedly when he arrived on the third floor, he found that there was not a single person on the third floor, and it was terrifyingly empty.
Arriving at the innermost room on the third floor, the "little girl" who led the way bowed to Tang Yin and then withdrew.
Looking at the closed door in front of him, Tang Yin knew that the person he was looking for was inside.
When he opened the door, the first thing that entered his nose was the faint smell of tobacco, and the layout of the room caught his eye at a glance.
The layout of the entire room is very simple, with one or two chairs, a few coffee tables, and two lounge chairs.
There was now a presence on one of the lounge chairs.
It was a woman, a stunning woman.
Long chestnut hair, red lips, and a pair of red phoenix eyes looked at Tang Yin, full of smiles.
A close-fitting red cheongsam with long slits all the way to her thighs. At first glance, she is full of white skin.
His right hand caressed the lazy cat in his arms, and his left hand slowly removed the dark jade cigarette rod from his mouth and blew out a cloud of mist.
"King, finally let me wait for you."
Although she called "King", the woman had no intention of getting up to greet him. Her slightly narrowed eyes looked more lazy than the cat in her arms.
Huan, is the name of the woman in front of me. She was originally a maid in the Killing City - a girl in black gauze. She entered the Killing City a few years earlier than Guyun. She is Guyun's elder and takes good care of Guyun. Therefore, Guyun He always called her "Sister Huan".
After Tang Yin became the King of Slaughter, Gu Yun was grateful for Sister Huan's daily care and recommended her to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin originally met this "Sister Huan" just for Guyun's sake, but he never thought that Tang Yin would see what "talent" is after that!
Walking out of the Killing City alone, with no other help except the 200 million gold soul coins given by Tang Yin, he used the strength of the Soul Saint to break out in the underground black market of the Star Luo Empire where there is no shortage of Soul Douluo and Title Douluo. .
Now, in more than three years, she has directly occupied nearly [-]% of the entire underground black market in the Star Luo Empire, and is called the "Queen of Joy" by outsiders!
"You should have known I was coming..." Looking at Sister Huan on the recliner, Tang Yin's voice was a little low and his brows were slightly furrowed.
On the way here just now, Tang Yin carefully observed both sides of the corridor and found that there were many doors that were not tightly closed, or they were secret doors.
It's the kind of secret door that's disguised on the wall, tightly closed, and exactly the same as the wall, but can be opened.
From the slightly opened door, Tang Yin saw many tables and chairs, which seemed to be used by people who worked there every day.
There were many organized documents on the desktop, indicating that the people inside did not leave in a hurry, but had enough time to pack their things before leaving. However, because the door was often opened, it left a problem that the door could not be closed tightly after too long. , so Tang Yin could easily spy on the scene.
Let's look at the layout of Sister Huan's room. There are two thickly cushioned lounge chairs, a coffee table, a coat rack, and nothing else. It should be the result of deliberate cleaning.
There are two cups of tea and several small snacks on the coffee table. These snacks are the types that Tang Yin liked to eat when he was in the Killing City. The preparation process is very complicated and takes at least two days to make.
Everything showed that Sister Huan had long known that he was coming, or knew that he was coming today, so she specially cleared the entire third floor and prepared his favorite snacks.
Tang Yin's face turned as cold as frost, and murderous intent slowly gathered in his heart.
As long as Sister Huan's answer is "yes", he will kill her without hesitation, even if Sister Huan is a rare talent.
Slowly getting up and placing the black cat in her arms on the lounge chair, Sister Huan slowly formed a smile on her lips: "Yes, I know you are coming, or I know you will come to my place tonight... ."
boom!
There was a loud noise, Tang Yin's figure flashed, and he directly grabbed Sister Huan's neck with his right hand and pressed her against the wall.
"Tell me, how did you know that I would come tonight, or who disclosed my information and location to you!"
A cluster of blazing flames rose up in Tang Yin's left hand, and then slowly handed it to Sister Huan. The raging heat of the flames had slightly scorched Sister Huan's long burgundy hair.
"Tell me, how do you want to die?!"
Tang Yin felt that it was necessary to let his "artistic" killing techniques reappear in the world to scare some people with evil intentions.
"Tell me, who disclosed my information to you, or who did you learn that I would come over tonight?"
Tang Yin doesn't like others prying into his intelligence and trying to control his whereabouts. He doesn't like it very much!
Regardless of whether this person's thoughts are well-intentioned or malicious, it doesn't matter!
After all, who can guarantee that this goodwill will always be goodwill?
Therefore, Tang Yin never tolerates those who try to find out his information. He will kill them all, no matter who they are!
The last guy who inquired about Tang Yin's intelligence and tried to grasp his whereabouts should not be much shorter than Tang Yin now.
I originally thought that after such a lesson, no one would dare to inquire about his whereabouts, but I never thought that I would encounter him again today.
Tang Yin felt that it was necessary to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys again, lest some people's minds would start to come alive again over time.
"Tell me, who disclosed the information to you!" Tang Yin slowly tightened the five fingers of his right hand. Sister Huan began to feel difficulty breathing, but the smile at the corner of her mouth did not fade at all, but the cigarette rod slowly slipped from her hand and fell to the ground. On the ground, there was a splash of sparks.
Seeing the smile on Sister Huan's lips, veins popped up on Tang Yin's forehead, feeling that he had been greatly ridiculed.
He still dared to laugh when he was about to die. If he hadn't wanted to know who the traitor was who betrayed Sister Huan, he would have just pinched Sister Huan's neck and let her stay underground with the guy with 1.8 meters of grass on her grave.
Seeing Tang Yin's furious look, Sister Huan's smile widened even more, and she slowly spit out a name that Tang Yin never expected.
"It's Gu Yun."
Tang Yin was stunned. He didn't expect that the traitor spit out from Sister Huan's mouth was actually Sister Guyun. His first reaction was that it was impossible, because it was impossible for Sister Guyun to betray him.
However, Tang Yin's second reaction was to believe Sister Huan's words.
Even though Sister Gu Yun is usually very smart, she has the disadvantage of being too trusting of others, especially for people she gets along with day and night.
So Sister Huan said that Sister Guyun leaked his information, and Tang Yin 100% believed it, because before Sister Huan left the Killing City, she had always been Guyun's closest and most trusted senior, so Sister Huan wanted to start from Gu Yun's words should not be too simple.
Well, since it was Sister Guyun who accidentally leaked the information, then it's okay.
"This will never happen again!"
Letting go of his hand and letting Sister Huan fall to the ground, Tang Yin extinguished the flame in his left hand, came to the coat rack, took off his cloak and hung it up.
"Cough...cough..." Sitting paralyzed on the ground, Sister Huan covered her neck and coughed a few times. Looking at Tang Yin's back, she tried hard to laugh a few times, but unexpectedly, she just laughed out loud. Again a series of violent coughs were triggered.
"What are you laughing at?" Tang Yin turned around, took off the mask on his face with a dark face, and walked towards Tang Yin who was supposed to be preparing for him in the room.
"Wang, you really love Sister Guyun too much. You are willing to give up punishing me for her. I can't help but make people jealous, hahaha." Sister Huan picked up the cigarette rod next to her, stood up against the wall, and then Tingting came to her recliner in a hurry, leaned over and picked up the black cat, which was still on the recliner and was not scared away by the movement. She lay on the recliner again, stretched out her hand to tease the cat in her arms, and suddenly It would be as if nothing just happened.
After hearing Sister Huan's words, Tang Yin, who was sitting on the recliner and taking off his boots, rolled his eyes and didn't want to speak.
As a king, the most important thing when dealing with things is fairness!
He can indeed kill Sister Huan here directly, but who can guarantee that what happened here will never spread?
When others find out that he only punished Sister Huan but spared his close friend Gu Yun, what will others think?
A king who cannot even do the simplest thing of keeping a bowl of water balanced and handle affairs fairly will inevitably create a gap in people's hearts, which will naturally develop into alienation over time.
Therefore, the best way to deal with it is to either punish both or neither.
In order not to punish Gu Yun, Tang Yin could only warn Sister Huan that this matter would not be repeated in the future, and she should keep this matter in her stomach and let no one say anything!
It was precisely because of this that Sister Huan said that Tang Yin loved Gu Yun so much that she even ignored her own safety.
Taking off his boots and exposing his ten crystal toes to the air, Tang Yin threw the mask on the coffee table, then lay on the recliner and stretched out.
He groaned lazily, his ten toes spread wide because of the excessive comfort, and a series of crackling bones sounded from Tang Yin's body.
Tang Yin felt that all the fatigue these days had left his body with a lazy waist. It was so comfortable.
With her long blue hair spread underneath her, Tang Yin twisted her body and found the most comfortable position on the recliner, then completely relaxed her body and enjoyed this rare moment of comfort.
On the other side, Sister Huan filled the cigarette pot with shredded tobacco again, lit it, then held the cigarette holder in her mouth, her eyes constantly wandering around Tang Yin.
After reading it several times from head to toe, Sister Huan gave her final conclusion.
No matter how you look at Wang's appearance, temperament and body shape, he is the best among women. There is no fault at all. It can be said that he is perfect.
But unfortunately, Wang still has a flaw, which can be said to be the biggest shortcoming, which lowered the score that could have been full marks.
It also made Sister Huan lament that God would not allow a perfect existence to appear in the world.
Thinking of this, tears slowly blurred Sister Huan's vision.
She really wanted to ask God loudly, why...why the king who was supposed to be perfect, turned out to be...
flat chest? ! ! !
Even if it is smaller, it can be said to be small and exquisite, but why...
Why is it such a [-]-degree cliff that looks like a frozen lake? ? ?
In this case, the children will definitely be hungry in the future, okay? !
wait, no!
Sister Huan suddenly realized that with the king's power, it should be easy to find a wet nurse for the child.
Apart from anything else, finding a big-breasted wet nurse for the future child in the Killing City seems to be a piece of cake. As long as Wang reveals this idea a little bit, people lining up will probably line up from the Killing City to the entrance town.
Thinking of this, Sister Huan felt that her worries were completely unfounded. With such power, how could the king starve the child? The child could have a wet nurse from one day to the next year. What is there to be afraid of?
So it's acceptable for Wang's breasts to be smaller, right?
No, wait a minute! ! !
Sister Huan suddenly remembered another thing!
It seems...maybe...I heard that Wang doesn't like men, but likes women!
Sister Huan had heard rumors that Guyun was the king's bed partner several times when she was still in the Killing City. In addition, just now the king could give up punishing herself for Guyun...
Sister Huan thinks this rumor can probably be believed.
Imagine the scene of Wang and Gu Yun's two snow-white bodies entangled on the bed. Sister Huan hurriedly lowered her head and covered her nose to prevent Wang from seeing any possible nosebleeds later.
Tang Yin, who was opposite, shuddered, and looked up at Sister Huan with a slightly alert look: "I feel like you were thinking about something bad just now!"
Sister Huan hurriedly put down the palm covering her mouth and nose, and looked at Tang Yin with a sincere face: "No, how can it be possible?"
"Really?" Tang Yin looked suspicious and didn't believe it at all.
"Really!" Sister Huan said with a smile, trying to hide that little bit of caution deep in her heart.
"Forget it, I won't bother you anymore." Tang Yin sat up, picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "How is the development of the black market recently? Do you need any support?"
When it came to work, Sister Huan immediately became serious and returned to the strong woman mode: "The recent development momentum of the black market is not ideal, because the development momentum here in my area has been too fast in the past two years, and it has been controlled by many black markets in other cities. The dealers resisted and poached many big customers from me, and the transaction volume in the black market has been declining in the past few months.”
"That's it..." Tang Yin sat cross-legged on the recliner, picked up a piece of pastry from the coffee table, chewed it slowly, and helped Sister Huan think about ways to break the situation.
If the power of Killing City is used, these difficulties will no longer be difficult. No one can survive the assassination of Killing City.
But these black market operators are more or less related to the local city lords or senior executives of the Star Luo Empire, and Tang Yin doesn't want to alarm them yet.
Now the plan to erode the Xingluo Empire is only carried out in secret. Tang Yin does not want to expose all this to the Xingluo Emperor prematurely, so as not to arouse the Xingluo Emperor's vigilance.
Now, how should we find a way to help Sister Huan solve this predicament without being suspected?
But after chewing all the cakes in his mouth, Tang Yin still didn't think of a way to break the situation.
After brushing off the cake crumbs from his hand, Tang Yin reached into his arms, took out a token and placed it in front of Sister Huan. Since you can't use power to pressure people, then just use money to pressure people.
"With this token, you can go to the local 'Haolan Chamber of Commerce' and withdraw no more than [-] million yuan per year..."
There is no need for Tang Yin to say the rest, Sister Huan already understands.
You must know that the annual transaction volume of her black market is less than 1000 million, and with the annual financial support of [-] million, she is absolutely sure to break the encirclement of other black markets and continue to encroach on other black markets.
In five years, five years at most, she is sure to capture [-]% of the black market share in the Star Luo Empire and become a dominant entity!
Putting down the token, Tang Yin reached into his arms again: "Besides this, there is also..."
Unfortunately, before he finished speaking, there was a quarrel coming from the window, which attracted his attention.
Taking out his hand from his arms, Tang Yin walked barefoot to the window, opened the window slightly and looked out.
Opposite the small building, a stall owner setting up a stall on the street was having a dispute with several people.
After only listening to a few sentences, Tang Yin almost understood the entire story.
The stall owner sold an item to these people. After they got the item, they found that the item was not as magical as the stall owner said. So he came back to argue with the stall owner and concluded that what he was selling was fake. Unexpectedly, the stall owner But he didn't admit it, and even said that these people had poor eyesight and deserved to be deceived in the black market.
In this way, the two sides started arguing, and then Tang Yin watched them start to fight. Finally, he was taken away by the black market law enforcement guards.
"You guys..." Tang Yin turned sideways and looked at Sister Huan who was following him. Counterfeit goods were still being sold on the black market. This was different from what was described in the novels he had read in his previous life.
Sister Huan glanced at the few people who were taken away by the law enforcement team, and said with a smile: "This kind of thing is very common in the black market, usually several times a day."
Tang Yin looked at Sister Huan blankly, is this normal?Several times?Give me back my longing for the black market in novels from my previous life!
Shaking his head to get rid of those funny thoughts, Tang Yin closed the window and returned to the recliner.
"Someone is selling fake goods on the black market. Don't you, the managers of the black market, just ignore it?"
Sister Huan shook her head and said in a helpless tone: "I can't control it. After all, this is the unspoken rule of the black market. The test is the buyer's eyesight. Not to mention the vendors, even the stores opened by us managers have many Less fakes. In the black market, these fakes account for close to [-]%. How to control them? Unless the entire black market doesn’t want to open, we can only control it.”
Tang Yin frowned. He didn't expect that the black market would be like this. Certain things would subtly become unspoken rules.
Once something becomes an unspoken rule, it is too late to manage it. We can only allow it to develop and grow uncontrollably.
Biting his thumb, Tang Yin thought for a while and suddenly noticed something that he had just ignored. If things were really as he imagined, then the dilemma Sister Huan was facing could be easily solved.
"Sister Huan, how are disputes generally handled in the black market?"
Hearing Tang Yin's question, Sister Huan recalled it and said: "Usually, the law enforcement team brings both parties to the law enforcement office for coordination and resolution. However, during coordination, the law enforcement team will consciously favor the party selling things. After all, the other party usually We paid high operating fees.”
"Then what happens if the deceived party is dissatisfied and has a conflict with the law enforcement team?" Tang Yin looked at Sister Huan with a smile on his lips.
"Of course it depends on the opponent's level and whether they can beat them. If they can beat them, they will suppress them directly. If they cannot beat them, they will usually use a large amount of compensation to satisfy the other party."
At this moment, Sister Huan suddenly saw the smile on Tang Yin's lips and reacted directly: "Wang, are you going to..."
"That's right!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, sighing in unison: "The black market is so dangerous..."
(End of this chapter)
In Douluo Continent, cities with a general population of less than 200 million can only be regarded as small cities. For example, Notting City, which Holy Soul Village relies on, is a small city. When the population exceeds 200 million, it begins to enter the ranks of intermediate cities. Tuocheng is a medium-sized city.
As for a large city, it can only be considered a large city when its population exceeds 500 million.
Further up, there are super-large cities with a population of over [-] million, such as Wuhun City, where the two imperial capitals and the main hall of Wuhun Palace are located.
No matter what kind of city it is, the distance between the two is about hundreds of kilometers, which means that generally one city controls thousands or even thousands of square kilometers of vast land.
Of course, not everyone can live in the city. There are scattered villages more than ten or dozens of kilometers away from these cities, where people who cannot live in the city due to poverty or other reasons Among the civilians there, Holy Soul Village and Shrek's original village were one of them.
The farthest distance between these villages and the city is generally no more than a hundred kilometers. It is rare to see one that can exceed this distance. Even if there are, they generally do not exist for too long or disappear.
The main reason for this is that this continent is still too vast.
Although humans are well-deserved as the overlords on this continent, the total population is only a little over 1 million. Imagine that in Tang Yin's previous life, China had a population of 13 billion, and there was still a large area of land that was not developed.
And what about Douluo Continent?
The area controlled by a mere Wuhun City is equivalent to a quarter of China, and the land occupied by this Wuhun City is only one-tenth of the mainland area. The area of about two and a half Huaxia, ten With one-third of the population, what would this continent look like?
To put it bluntly, although the current overlords of the entire continent are humans, there are still many wild beasts or spirit beasts living in the wild. The entire continent is still in an era where humans and beasts coexist.
Although the management range of each city is hundreds of kilometers, the effective distance they can really control is only a few hundred kilometers. No matter how many kilometers it is, they will have more than they want but not enough power, and the rest of the place will still be occupied by wild beasts.
The reason for this result is that there are insufficient soldiers in each city.
It has been said before that the current life background of Douluo Continent is very similar to ancient Europe in Tang Yin's previous life on Earth. In other words, it can be summed up in one sentence - insufficient productivity!
With today's productivity, it generally takes the productivity of ten to twenty ordinary people to support a soldier who has been trained all year round.
Take a medium-sized city as an example. Even if it has a population of 400 million, its permanent military strength will not exceed 20, and is more likely to be maintained at around 15.
In addition to the lack of productivity, there was also the factor that the emperor was worried about the rebellion of the city managers, which directly caused the city to have insufficient control over its affiliated territories.
Although these cities conduct a sweep of wild beasts and spirit beasts in the territory every year, half of the 15 troops must be left to guard the city, and the other half can destroy the beast herds in the territory. How big can a mere tens of thousands of troops sweep away? An area?
Being able to guarantee a safe zone with a radius of hundreds of kilometers is pretty good.
The number of armies in large cities may be larger, but it will not exceed 30, while the number of armies in small cities may only be [-], or even less, and it is unknown how many of them are on the free payroll.
Therefore, if the towns outside the city want to live a more stable life, they can only live closer to the city and within the effective protection range of the city's army.
This is the current situation of life for ordinary people in Douluo Continent today!
Lowering his body, Tang Yin lay on the back of the galloping dragon horse, pulled down his hood, reached behind his neck and pulled his long hair out from under the cloak. The long hair danced wildly in the strong wind, like a blue cloak.
I had to put a lot of effort into hiding my long hair before wearing Chongkai. In the end, I had no choice but to tie it into a ponytail and tuck it directly into my back. The restraint of Chongkai and the bulging hair on my back made it really uncomfortable. .
It's fine now. I've left the imperial capital. I don't have to wear that heavy suit anymore, so I naturally feel relaxed.
Huishan glanced at the imperial capital, which only had a vague outline, and a smile appeared on Tang Yin's mouth under the mask.
If his prediction was correct, Emperor Xingluo had already issued an order to remove Fang Xing from their posts and recall them to the imperial capital.
I didn't mean to trick them, but these two guys were always like the stones in the pit, smelly and hard, and refused to accept my bribes, so I had no choice but to let the two of them go home to retire.
As for Zhou Mian, Tang Yin didn't like him. This guy only hinted twice before he began to waver. How could Tang Yin be reassured by someone who betrayed him so easily? Who can guarantee when he will betray him next time? .
Besides, if there was no secret matchmaking by "Tianji", how could Wuhundian bribe Zhou Mian so easily.
However, Tang Yin really didn't expect that in addition to the few people who were secretly matched by "Tianji", Wuhundian also successfully bribed several other powerful figures. It was really...
Nice job!
After these people die, their vacant positions will be just right for Tang Yin to arrange the next move.
Regardless of whether it was the Tiandou Empire or the Star Luo Empire, Tang Yin didn't completely believe that what he was about to hand over to Tang San was an invincible force on the continent. The second Spirit Hall, what if these guys knew the truth? How could you help him so selflessly, send him money, resources, and people?
Who wants to welcome a more powerful tiger after just driving away a wolf?
Therefore, he could only reluctantly trap the three forces of Tiandou Empire, Star Luo Empire, and Wuhun Palace together. By the time the three families really discovered it, it was already too late. His power had basically taken shape. Even if the three families wanted to resist by then, By that time, there will be more than enough ambition but not enough energy.
The more he thought about it, the more the corners of Tang Yin's mouth twitched...
As Tang Yin expected, after losing his temper, the emperor issued an order to transfer Fang Xing and his two men back and send three more confidants to take over the legion. Since Zhou Mian can be bribed, who can guarantee these two people? Is it also safe?
Even if the two of them were not bribed by Wuhun Palace, who can be sure that they were not bribed by the "King of Slaughter"?
He will not tolerate any instability.
Outside the palace, Prince Davis, who had just changed his clothes, was looking at the avenue outside the palace with his fiancée Zhu Zhuyun in a daze.
Originally, after he took a shower and changed his clothes, he hurriedly brought his fiancée over. He wanted to wait for Tang Yin, the "Grand Duke of Bauhinia", to come out, invite him to a banquet to wash away the dust, and see if he could get it. The other party was supportive, but unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, he got the news that the Grand Duke had left.
In other words, all the preparations he had made were in vain. He had already left without even a single peck on him, and he completely regarded him as the prince of the empire as nothing...
At the gate of the imperial capital, three figures rushed away with the emperor's order, preparing to replace Fang Xing and the others.
As for how long these three people can resist Tang Yin's bribery or conspiracy...
Only God knows.
At around two o'clock in the morning the next day, the walls of Giant Rock City were already in sight. Although Tang Yin's order was to arrive before dawn, Mo, a guy who often thought about Tang Yin's orders at random, secretly gave the order to speed up.
The most intuitive result of this order is that when they arrived near Giant Rock City, except for Tang Yin's dragon horse, other people's horses were more or less frothing. If they don't rest, these horses will soon be Tired to death.
Stopping in a forest not far outside the city, Tang Yin turned over and dismounted, looked at the city wall not far away and thought to himself.
At this time, the city gate must have been closed, and it will not be opened until the sun rises in the morning. It would not be difficult if he revealed his identity as the "Grand Duke of Bauhinia" and ordered the defenders to open the city gate now, but this would definitely Expose his whereabouts.
So Tang Yin thought about it and chose another method.
Just like Tang Yin went to school in his previous life, when he came back late, the school gate was closed and inaccessible. So at this time, he could only choose a very simple method to get in.
――――Climb the wall!
Although there are soldiers patrolling the walls of Giant Rock City from time to time, these are just ordinary people. They can't trouble Tang Yin. He is comparable to a titled Douluo. If he can still be discovered by ordinary soldiers when he climbs the city wall, then he might as well go find a piece of tofu to hit him. It would be better to travel through time again.
After taking a look at the people behind him who were quietly waiting for orders, Tang Yin directly gave the order to the "killing team" to wait on the spot, waiting for him and Mo to come out of Giant Rock City.
Tang Yin was going to take Mo in with him. He still had some things that Mo needed to deal with.
With silence, the two people passed the city wall silently without being noticed at all. The soldiers guarding the city had no idea that two people had sneaked into the city in front of them just now.
"Mo, go find Gu Yun and tell her that I'm waiting for her in the 'underground black market'. As for where to meet, she will naturally know."
Nodding silently, the two disappeared into the night, while Tang Yin walked towards the slums in the city.
He wanted to meet a person, a person who walked out of the city of killing, and whom even he, the "King of Killing", admired greatly.
After turning left and right in the slum for a long time, Tang Yin came to a dilapidated courtyard and gently knocked on the door that seemed likely to fall down with just a little force.
Tang Yin wants to enter the underground black market of Giant Rock City to meet that person, and this is the contact point left by that person.
"Sir... Hello, who are you looking for?" The door opened, and a little girl in her teens poked her head out. She was startled when she saw Tang Yin, and then said timidly.
Tang Yin didn't say anything, but took out a token from the system package and showed it in front of the little girl.
Seeing this token, the little girl's expression changed, and the cowardice on her face disappeared. She turned directly to respect, turned around and let the passage pass: "Sir, please come in."
Tang Yin walked into the courtyard. The little girl stretched out her head and glanced outside the courtyard, then quickly closed the door.
"Sir, please come down." The little girl took the lead towards the dilapidated house in the courtyard that was on the verge of collapse.
Entering the bedroom, the little girl clicked on the corner of the bed, and then the bed and the floor moved away, revealing a deep passage.
"Sir, please." The little girl took the lead and walked into the passage, and then the fire lit up. When Tang Yin came down, there was already a torch in the little girl's hand.
Looking at the little girl leading the way, Tang Yin raised his eyebrows. A little girl who looked to be in her teens actually had the cultivation level of a Soul Saint. How did that guy do it?Or where did that guy find such a talent?
Although she looks more than ten years old, Tang Yin knows that the little girl is definitely older. From the smell, this little girl is definitely not younger than her alcoholic father.
Born a dwarf?Immortality?Or something else?
After walking out of the passage, what appeared in front of Tang Yin was a huge and brightly lit street. The buildings on both sides of the street could not be seen at a glance.
The streets were full of people walking around. From time to time, people walked into the buildings on both sides of the street, and then there was the sound of fierce bargaining. After a while, some people walked out satisfied, while others got nothing.
The black market where this giant rock city is located is the largest black market in the three nearby cities. Countless shady items are circulated here. A large number of people come here every day to buy dirt or sell stolen goods.
Tang Yin was a little surprised. He originally thought that this underground black market was just a secret den for selling stolen goods. The so-called "underground" was just a metaphor. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be an "underground" black market.
The entire black market exists in a huge underground cave. A large number of artificial traces can be seen on both sides of the cave, so it is known that the cave must have been artificially widened.
Following the footsteps of the "little girl", Tang Yin came to the tallest building in the underground black market here. It was a third-floor building covered with black lanterns. All pedestrians stayed away. Even if they looked at it, they only dared to peek a few times. Small building.
Following the footsteps of the "little girl" in front of him, Tang Yin stepped lightly into the small building, leaving a large group of people behind him who couldn't believe it.
Seeing Tang Yin step into the small building, the crowd outside the building began to speculate on Tang Yin's identity, wanting to know what qualifications this person had to enter the most terrifying place in the black market.
On the first and second floors, Tang Yin saw a lot of busy people, but unexpectedly when he arrived on the third floor, he found that there was not a single person on the third floor, and it was terrifyingly empty.
Arriving at the innermost room on the third floor, the "little girl" who led the way bowed to Tang Yin and then withdrew.
Looking at the closed door in front of him, Tang Yin knew that the person he was looking for was inside.
When he opened the door, the first thing that entered his nose was the faint smell of tobacco, and the layout of the room caught his eye at a glance.
The layout of the entire room is very simple, with one or two chairs, a few coffee tables, and two lounge chairs.
There was now a presence on one of the lounge chairs.
It was a woman, a stunning woman.
Long chestnut hair, red lips, and a pair of red phoenix eyes looked at Tang Yin, full of smiles.
A close-fitting red cheongsam with long slits all the way to her thighs. At first glance, she is full of white skin.
His right hand caressed the lazy cat in his arms, and his left hand slowly removed the dark jade cigarette rod from his mouth and blew out a cloud of mist.
"King, finally let me wait for you."
Although she called "King", the woman had no intention of getting up to greet him. Her slightly narrowed eyes looked more lazy than the cat in her arms.
Huan, is the name of the woman in front of me. She was originally a maid in the Killing City - a girl in black gauze. She entered the Killing City a few years earlier than Guyun. She is Guyun's elder and takes good care of Guyun. Therefore, Guyun He always called her "Sister Huan".
After Tang Yin became the King of Slaughter, Gu Yun was grateful for Sister Huan's daily care and recommended her to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin originally met this "Sister Huan" just for Guyun's sake, but he never thought that Tang Yin would see what "talent" is after that!
Walking out of the Killing City alone, with no other help except the 200 million gold soul coins given by Tang Yin, he used the strength of the Soul Saint to break out in the underground black market of the Star Luo Empire where there is no shortage of Soul Douluo and Title Douluo. .
Now, in more than three years, she has directly occupied nearly [-]% of the entire underground black market in the Star Luo Empire, and is called the "Queen of Joy" by outsiders!
"You should have known I was coming..." Looking at Sister Huan on the recliner, Tang Yin's voice was a little low and his brows were slightly furrowed.
On the way here just now, Tang Yin carefully observed both sides of the corridor and found that there were many doors that were not tightly closed, or they were secret doors.
It's the kind of secret door that's disguised on the wall, tightly closed, and exactly the same as the wall, but can be opened.
From the slightly opened door, Tang Yin saw many tables and chairs, which seemed to be used by people who worked there every day.
There were many organized documents on the desktop, indicating that the people inside did not leave in a hurry, but had enough time to pack their things before leaving. However, because the door was often opened, it left a problem that the door could not be closed tightly after too long. , so Tang Yin could easily spy on the scene.
Let's look at the layout of Sister Huan's room. There are two thickly cushioned lounge chairs, a coffee table, a coat rack, and nothing else. It should be the result of deliberate cleaning.
There are two cups of tea and several small snacks on the coffee table. These snacks are the types that Tang Yin liked to eat when he was in the Killing City. The preparation process is very complicated and takes at least two days to make.
Everything showed that Sister Huan had long known that he was coming, or knew that he was coming today, so she specially cleared the entire third floor and prepared his favorite snacks.
Tang Yin's face turned as cold as frost, and murderous intent slowly gathered in his heart.
As long as Sister Huan's answer is "yes", he will kill her without hesitation, even if Sister Huan is a rare talent.
Slowly getting up and placing the black cat in her arms on the lounge chair, Sister Huan slowly formed a smile on her lips: "Yes, I know you are coming, or I know you will come to my place tonight... ."
boom!
There was a loud noise, Tang Yin's figure flashed, and he directly grabbed Sister Huan's neck with his right hand and pressed her against the wall.
"Tell me, how did you know that I would come tonight, or who disclosed my information and location to you!"
A cluster of blazing flames rose up in Tang Yin's left hand, and then slowly handed it to Sister Huan. The raging heat of the flames had slightly scorched Sister Huan's long burgundy hair.
"Tell me, how do you want to die?!"
Tang Yin felt that it was necessary to let his "artistic" killing techniques reappear in the world to scare some people with evil intentions.
"Tell me, who disclosed my information to you, or who did you learn that I would come over tonight?"
Tang Yin doesn't like others prying into his intelligence and trying to control his whereabouts. He doesn't like it very much!
Regardless of whether this person's thoughts are well-intentioned or malicious, it doesn't matter!
After all, who can guarantee that this goodwill will always be goodwill?
Therefore, Tang Yin never tolerates those who try to find out his information. He will kill them all, no matter who they are!
The last guy who inquired about Tang Yin's intelligence and tried to grasp his whereabouts should not be much shorter than Tang Yin now.
I originally thought that after such a lesson, no one would dare to inquire about his whereabouts, but I never thought that I would encounter him again today.
Tang Yin felt that it was necessary to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys again, lest some people's minds would start to come alive again over time.
"Tell me, who disclosed the information to you!" Tang Yin slowly tightened the five fingers of his right hand. Sister Huan began to feel difficulty breathing, but the smile at the corner of her mouth did not fade at all, but the cigarette rod slowly slipped from her hand and fell to the ground. On the ground, there was a splash of sparks.
Seeing the smile on Sister Huan's lips, veins popped up on Tang Yin's forehead, feeling that he had been greatly ridiculed.
He still dared to laugh when he was about to die. If he hadn't wanted to know who the traitor was who betrayed Sister Huan, he would have just pinched Sister Huan's neck and let her stay underground with the guy with 1.8 meters of grass on her grave.
Seeing Tang Yin's furious look, Sister Huan's smile widened even more, and she slowly spit out a name that Tang Yin never expected.
"It's Gu Yun."
Tang Yin was stunned. He didn't expect that the traitor spit out from Sister Huan's mouth was actually Sister Guyun. His first reaction was that it was impossible, because it was impossible for Sister Guyun to betray him.
However, Tang Yin's second reaction was to believe Sister Huan's words.
Even though Sister Gu Yun is usually very smart, she has the disadvantage of being too trusting of others, especially for people she gets along with day and night.
So Sister Huan said that Sister Guyun leaked his information, and Tang Yin 100% believed it, because before Sister Huan left the Killing City, she had always been Guyun's closest and most trusted senior, so Sister Huan wanted to start from Gu Yun's words should not be too simple.
Well, since it was Sister Guyun who accidentally leaked the information, then it's okay.
"This will never happen again!"
Letting go of his hand and letting Sister Huan fall to the ground, Tang Yin extinguished the flame in his left hand, came to the coat rack, took off his cloak and hung it up.
"Cough...cough..." Sitting paralyzed on the ground, Sister Huan covered her neck and coughed a few times. Looking at Tang Yin's back, she tried hard to laugh a few times, but unexpectedly, she just laughed out loud. Again a series of violent coughs were triggered.
"What are you laughing at?" Tang Yin turned around, took off the mask on his face with a dark face, and walked towards Tang Yin who was supposed to be preparing for him in the room.
"Wang, you really love Sister Guyun too much. You are willing to give up punishing me for her. I can't help but make people jealous, hahaha." Sister Huan picked up the cigarette rod next to her, stood up against the wall, and then Tingting came to her recliner in a hurry, leaned over and picked up the black cat, which was still on the recliner and was not scared away by the movement. She lay on the recliner again, stretched out her hand to tease the cat in her arms, and suddenly It would be as if nothing just happened.
After hearing Sister Huan's words, Tang Yin, who was sitting on the recliner and taking off his boots, rolled his eyes and didn't want to speak.
As a king, the most important thing when dealing with things is fairness!
He can indeed kill Sister Huan here directly, but who can guarantee that what happened here will never spread?
When others find out that he only punished Sister Huan but spared his close friend Gu Yun, what will others think?
A king who cannot even do the simplest thing of keeping a bowl of water balanced and handle affairs fairly will inevitably create a gap in people's hearts, which will naturally develop into alienation over time.
Therefore, the best way to deal with it is to either punish both or neither.
In order not to punish Gu Yun, Tang Yin could only warn Sister Huan that this matter would not be repeated in the future, and she should keep this matter in her stomach and let no one say anything!
It was precisely because of this that Sister Huan said that Tang Yin loved Gu Yun so much that she even ignored her own safety.
Taking off his boots and exposing his ten crystal toes to the air, Tang Yin threw the mask on the coffee table, then lay on the recliner and stretched out.
He groaned lazily, his ten toes spread wide because of the excessive comfort, and a series of crackling bones sounded from Tang Yin's body.
Tang Yin felt that all the fatigue these days had left his body with a lazy waist. It was so comfortable.
With her long blue hair spread underneath her, Tang Yin twisted her body and found the most comfortable position on the recliner, then completely relaxed her body and enjoyed this rare moment of comfort.
On the other side, Sister Huan filled the cigarette pot with shredded tobacco again, lit it, then held the cigarette holder in her mouth, her eyes constantly wandering around Tang Yin.
After reading it several times from head to toe, Sister Huan gave her final conclusion.
No matter how you look at Wang's appearance, temperament and body shape, he is the best among women. There is no fault at all. It can be said that he is perfect.
But unfortunately, Wang still has a flaw, which can be said to be the biggest shortcoming, which lowered the score that could have been full marks.
It also made Sister Huan lament that God would not allow a perfect existence to appear in the world.
Thinking of this, tears slowly blurred Sister Huan's vision.
She really wanted to ask God loudly, why...why the king who was supposed to be perfect, turned out to be...
flat chest? ! ! !
Even if it is smaller, it can be said to be small and exquisite, but why...
Why is it such a [-]-degree cliff that looks like a frozen lake? ? ?
In this case, the children will definitely be hungry in the future, okay? !
wait, no!
Sister Huan suddenly realized that with the king's power, it should be easy to find a wet nurse for the child.
Apart from anything else, finding a big-breasted wet nurse for the future child in the Killing City seems to be a piece of cake. As long as Wang reveals this idea a little bit, people lining up will probably line up from the Killing City to the entrance town.
Thinking of this, Sister Huan felt that her worries were completely unfounded. With such power, how could the king starve the child? The child could have a wet nurse from one day to the next year. What is there to be afraid of?
So it's acceptable for Wang's breasts to be smaller, right?
No, wait a minute! ! !
Sister Huan suddenly remembered another thing!
It seems...maybe...I heard that Wang doesn't like men, but likes women!
Sister Huan had heard rumors that Guyun was the king's bed partner several times when she was still in the Killing City. In addition, just now the king could give up punishing herself for Guyun...
Sister Huan thinks this rumor can probably be believed.
Imagine the scene of Wang and Gu Yun's two snow-white bodies entangled on the bed. Sister Huan hurriedly lowered her head and covered her nose to prevent Wang from seeing any possible nosebleeds later.
Tang Yin, who was opposite, shuddered, and looked up at Sister Huan with a slightly alert look: "I feel like you were thinking about something bad just now!"
Sister Huan hurriedly put down the palm covering her mouth and nose, and looked at Tang Yin with a sincere face: "No, how can it be possible?"
"Really?" Tang Yin looked suspicious and didn't believe it at all.
"Really!" Sister Huan said with a smile, trying to hide that little bit of caution deep in her heart.
"Forget it, I won't bother you anymore." Tang Yin sat up, picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "How is the development of the black market recently? Do you need any support?"
When it came to work, Sister Huan immediately became serious and returned to the strong woman mode: "The recent development momentum of the black market is not ideal, because the development momentum here in my area has been too fast in the past two years, and it has been controlled by many black markets in other cities. The dealers resisted and poached many big customers from me, and the transaction volume in the black market has been declining in the past few months.”
"That's it..." Tang Yin sat cross-legged on the recliner, picked up a piece of pastry from the coffee table, chewed it slowly, and helped Sister Huan think about ways to break the situation.
If the power of Killing City is used, these difficulties will no longer be difficult. No one can survive the assassination of Killing City.
But these black market operators are more or less related to the local city lords or senior executives of the Star Luo Empire, and Tang Yin doesn't want to alarm them yet.
Now the plan to erode the Xingluo Empire is only carried out in secret. Tang Yin does not want to expose all this to the Xingluo Emperor prematurely, so as not to arouse the Xingluo Emperor's vigilance.
Now, how should we find a way to help Sister Huan solve this predicament without being suspected?
But after chewing all the cakes in his mouth, Tang Yin still didn't think of a way to break the situation.
After brushing off the cake crumbs from his hand, Tang Yin reached into his arms, took out a token and placed it in front of Sister Huan. Since you can't use power to pressure people, then just use money to pressure people.
"With this token, you can go to the local 'Haolan Chamber of Commerce' and withdraw no more than [-] million yuan per year..."
There is no need for Tang Yin to say the rest, Sister Huan already understands.
You must know that the annual transaction volume of her black market is less than 1000 million, and with the annual financial support of [-] million, she is absolutely sure to break the encirclement of other black markets and continue to encroach on other black markets.
In five years, five years at most, she is sure to capture [-]% of the black market share in the Star Luo Empire and become a dominant entity!
Putting down the token, Tang Yin reached into his arms again: "Besides this, there is also..."
Unfortunately, before he finished speaking, there was a quarrel coming from the window, which attracted his attention.
Taking out his hand from his arms, Tang Yin walked barefoot to the window, opened the window slightly and looked out.
Opposite the small building, a stall owner setting up a stall on the street was having a dispute with several people.
After only listening to a few sentences, Tang Yin almost understood the entire story.
The stall owner sold an item to these people. After they got the item, they found that the item was not as magical as the stall owner said. So he came back to argue with the stall owner and concluded that what he was selling was fake. Unexpectedly, the stall owner But he didn't admit it, and even said that these people had poor eyesight and deserved to be deceived in the black market.
In this way, the two sides started arguing, and then Tang Yin watched them start to fight. Finally, he was taken away by the black market law enforcement guards.
"You guys..." Tang Yin turned sideways and looked at Sister Huan who was following him. Counterfeit goods were still being sold on the black market. This was different from what was described in the novels he had read in his previous life.
Sister Huan glanced at the few people who were taken away by the law enforcement team, and said with a smile: "This kind of thing is very common in the black market, usually several times a day."
Tang Yin looked at Sister Huan blankly, is this normal?Several times?Give me back my longing for the black market in novels from my previous life!
Shaking his head to get rid of those funny thoughts, Tang Yin closed the window and returned to the recliner.
"Someone is selling fake goods on the black market. Don't you, the managers of the black market, just ignore it?"
Sister Huan shook her head and said in a helpless tone: "I can't control it. After all, this is the unspoken rule of the black market. The test is the buyer's eyesight. Not to mention the vendors, even the stores opened by us managers have many Less fakes. In the black market, these fakes account for close to [-]%. How to control them? Unless the entire black market doesn’t want to open, we can only control it.”
Tang Yin frowned. He didn't expect that the black market would be like this. Certain things would subtly become unspoken rules.
Once something becomes an unspoken rule, it is too late to manage it. We can only allow it to develop and grow uncontrollably.
Biting his thumb, Tang Yin thought for a while and suddenly noticed something that he had just ignored. If things were really as he imagined, then the dilemma Sister Huan was facing could be easily solved.
"Sister Huan, how are disputes generally handled in the black market?"
Hearing Tang Yin's question, Sister Huan recalled it and said: "Usually, the law enforcement team brings both parties to the law enforcement office for coordination and resolution. However, during coordination, the law enforcement team will consciously favor the party selling things. After all, the other party usually We paid high operating fees.”
"Then what happens if the deceived party is dissatisfied and has a conflict with the law enforcement team?" Tang Yin looked at Sister Huan with a smile on his lips.
"Of course it depends on the opponent's level and whether they can beat them. If they can beat them, they will suppress them directly. If they cannot beat them, they will usually use a large amount of compensation to satisfy the other party."
At this moment, Sister Huan suddenly saw the smile on Tang Yin's lips and reacted directly: "Wang, are you going to..."
"That's right!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, sighing in unison: "The black market is so dangerous..."
