Douluo overthrows the gods

Chapter 272 The Royal and the Capitalists

Kaname Province.

Half Moon City.

This is equivalent to the so-called provincial capital city. It is built along the sea. It is the largest port city in the Sun and Moon Continent. There are no less than a hundred fishing boats, cargo ships, and cruise ships coming and going every day, and the number is increasing day by day. Recently, several new docks have been built, and the ones inside are

Build giant ships over 200 meters tall.

Along the road paved with solidified soil, Gu Zhi walked and walked into the city gate like a country bumpkin. The guard guarding the gate didn't even look at the young man dressed in coarse linen. There were four-wheeled vehicles entering the city at the same time as him.

The carriage was also not inspected by the guards.

In terms of clothing, Gu Zhi is one of the rare ones among the people on the street. Some of the people here wear clothes made of cotton, which are extremely practical but not very ornamental. Some of the better ones wear expensive dresses or similar windbreakers.

robe.

The person wearing the gilded soul master badge wears a complicated black robe. Obviously, people here respect black, but there is no such thing as a soul master bullying civilians on the street. Even the vendors who buy and sell things will talk to them in a respectful tone.

The soul masters bargained, and the spirit of contract seemed to transcend each other's class.

There must be a huge force behind such a rule-abiding system. "Etiquette cannot be extended to common people, and punishment cannot be extended to officials." It seems that such things cannot be seen here.

Only by combining strict and perfect laws with powerful forces to establish a fair trade market can capital develop rapidly.

This is the progress of the times, but most of the pedestrians on the street look in a hurry, as if there are endless affairs chasing them behind them, forcing them to keep busy.

Just as Gu Zhi was passing by a square where goods were unloaded, a short and sturdy man staggered up to him carrying two large bags of stone wheat.

Seeing that he was about to bump into Gu Zhi, he shouted anxiously: "Brother, help me!"

These two bags of grain weigh almost 500 kilograms!

Gu Zhi stretched out his hands to take the two bags of stone wheat from the shoulders of the stocky dock porter, then straightened his hands to weigh the weight.

"Brother, you are so strong! If you hadn't taken action, I would have lost my waist today, which would have been a big trouble. Thank you very much."

The short and stocky man gritted his teeth and said with a simple and honest face: "Brother, please wait for me. I will buy you two drinks after I finish unloading the truck."

A hundred days of broken muscles and bones would require him to lie down for a month even if the people here were generally strong. Adding the cost of treatment, it was an unbearable burden for a family of three who had just moved into the city.

Facing the porter's thanks, Gu Zhi casually put down the two bags of grain, patted his not-so-broad shoulder, and said with a smile, "It's just a little effort. Don't take it to heart, brother. Be more careful next time."

After saying that, he stood up and left, like an enthusiastic citizen of the city.

The homesteaders on Douluo Continent are not considered poor, unless they are located in poor mountains and rivers. Only three or four acres of land with a yield of more than 500 kilograms per mu can support a family of five.

The gathering of so many labor forces in this city shows that during social changes, some people became manor owners, at the expense of a large number of homesteaders who lost the land they relied on for survival.

And in order to make these laborers work actively, capitalists will control the prices of daily necessities so that the workers they hire can live below the subsistence line. Maybe after a year of hard work, there will be almost no balance left.

It stands to reason that the productivity of the feudal era is far less than that of the capital era, and people's lives in the capital era should be correspondingly richer. However, this is an era of extraordinary power, and the truths of Blue Star that have been tested are still not fully applicable here.

"My friend, please wait a moment."

Suddenly, a purple-haired young man wearing a luxurious black robe and a fourth-level soul master on his chest stopped Gu Zhi, and the whole street fell silent.

The soul master just now was calling a commoner "friend".

Everyone was astonished and turned their attention to Gu Zhi. After a closer look, they immediately discovered that this young man was different. First of all, he was very good-looking. Even in the Sun and Moon Continent, where black is considered beautiful, people here still recognized the young man in front of them.

He is a rare handsome man.

The purple-haired young man is only twenty years old. He has already become a fourth-level soul master, and his soul power cultivation has reached level 41. He is considered an outstanding genius, and his appearance is not bad. However, at this moment, he is indeed clothed in coarse linen and is still kicking.

Gu Zhi, who was wearing a pair of straw sandals, was overwhelmed.

"What do you want from me?"

Gu Zhi asked casually. He had noticed this purple-haired young man for a long time. After all, men are very sensitive to people of the same sex who are always looking at them.

"Nothing, it's just noon now, and I don't want to have lunch alone, so can you please have a casual meal with me?"

The purple-haired young man stepped forward quickly, stopped near Gu Zhi, stretched out his right hand and said, "My name is Jing Kuan."

When Gu Zhi helped the porter just now, he noticed something unusual about this young man. He could lift more than two hundred kilograms of goods straight with one hand without using his martial spirit, which meant that he had at least two thousand kilograms of strength in one arm.

, not even the slightest bit weaker than his fourth-level soul master.

And this was just the level Gu Zhi showed. Judging from the ease on his face when he exerted his strength, Jing Kuan concluded that his strength was better than his own.

Of course, what made him take a high look was not that Gu Zhi was a hidden genius soul master or soul master, but his attitude towards ordinary people.

Gu Zhi stretched out his hand to shake his hand, smiled in an easy-going manner, and said, "My name is Gu Zhi, and free meals taste the best. Thank you for your hospitality."

With that said, the two of them walked into a very luxurious-looking restaurant. As a landlord, Jing Kuan led Gu straight up to the fourth floor, sat down at a table by the window, and naturally put the table on the table.

The menu was handed over to Gu Zhi.

"Brother Gu, please feel free to order whatever you want."

Gu Zhi, who took the menu, counted the dishes on the menu and found that there were only seventeen, including meat and vegetables, fried, stir-fried and stewed.

"Then take a portion of them all."

Hearing this, Jing Kuan called the waiter and ordered: "According to the menu, order everyone, and bring two bottles of maple leaf red."

After the waiter left, he said casually: "Brother Gu, this must be his first time in Banyue City. Is he coming to the parade alone?"

Gu Zhi nodded and replied: "This is indeed my first time here. Compared with my hometown, this place is so prosperous. We don't have high-rise buildings everywhere."

This is just an important city in the province, but its level of prosperity has surpassed that of Tiandou Imperial City by an unknown amount. High-rise buildings generally built with solidified soil and blue stones are usually eight stories high. It can be imagined that compared to the two

A three-story wooden loft can accommodate more than five times the population.

Just such a half-moon city has a permanent population of more than 30 million.

Jing Kuan narrowed his eyes and confirmed his guess. The genius in front of him of the same age was indeed not a soul master who came out of the academy.

Rather, they are traditional soul masters who have been passed down by their families or sects.

With such a strong body, could he be the successor of Tianlong Sect?

Just when he was about to ask, a somewhat harsh voice sounded.

"Isn't this Jing Kuan? Is he treating your foreman to dinner? He is really willing to spend money to treat you at Wangyue Tower. As expected of the young master of the Yuanhang Chamber of Commerce, he is really generous."

A tall, thin, dark-skinned young man with a bald head, dark skin, and triangular eyes broke into Gu Zhi's line of sight and looked at them with an unruly expression.

As he appeared, the surrounding customers left their meal money, got up and left the restaurant. It was obvious that this black-skinned man who suddenly appeared was notorious.

Jing Kuan's face suddenly turned cold, and he said in a cold voice: "Xu Zhe, he is my friend, you'd better keep your mouth clean, otherwise..."

Unfortunately, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the other party.

Xu Zhe laughed a few times and said with a look of disdain: "Otherwise, you will let your sister beat me, right? Then you have to hurry up, I like to be beaten by your sister the most, after all,

Ziyi hasn't hit me for seven days, but I miss her little kitten claws."

As he spoke, he showed a lewd expression, stretched out his tongue and licked his lips fiercely.

"By the way, my old man has already gone to your house to propose marriage. Maybe I will become your future brother-in-law!"

Bang--

Knowing that his family would not agree to Xu Zhe's father's proposal of marriage, Jing Kuan was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up with a gloomy face. He stared at Xu Zhe with his eyes fixed on him, and his hand was already on the storage belt, as if

The next moment, he will take out his soul guide and start a fierce battle with his opponent.

"Are you that afraid of our siblings? Crown Prince Xu!"

"Why are you afraid? I like you siblings the most, especially your sister."

Xu Zhe looked indifferent and didn't care about the angry Jing Kuan. Counting Jing Ziyi, the three of them had been fighting for five years.

This is because the victory or defeat of the previous generation can only be carried forward to the next generation, but among the descendants of the Jing family in this generation, there are two geniuses with innate soul power of level seven or above.

They are Jing Kuan, who has an innate soul power of level 7 and a half, and Jing Ziyi, who has an innate soul power of level 9. Among Xu Zhe's brothers and sisters, there is only one younger brother who has an innate soul power of level 7, who is only twelve years old.

In addition, his eldest brother, who has an innate soul power of level 8, is obviously already weaker than the other party. If they wait for their generation to ascend to the position of head of their respective families, then the Pinghai Palace will probably be overshadowed by the Yuanhang Chamber of Commerce, and may even be defeated.

Cut off some good pieces of meat.

Therefore, he has been looking for opportunities and tried every means to force Jing Kuan to attack him. He wanted to legitimately destroy Jing Kuan.

"Brother Gu, it seems I can only treat you to dinner next time. I'm going to have a fight with this bastard today."

Jing Kuan knew Xu Zhe's plan and knew that he was no match for Xu Zhe, but Xu Zhe mentioned his sister several times, which really made him unable to calm down.

"That's not the case."

After watching and making sure that he had not fallen into a specially designed game, Gu Zhi turned to face Xu Zhe, who had a vulgar look on his face but a fierce glint in his eyes.

"I don't want to get involved in the power struggle between you. If you apologize well and leave here, I won't hold you accountable for disturbing my meal."

When he first arrived, he didn't have a thorough understanding of the situation here. The two people in front of him were obviously the core figures in this area, and he didn't want to be labeled as that force.

"Boy! Do you know who you are talking to!"

Xu Zhe laughed evilly and said proudly: "My father is the King of Pinghai, don't think that you want to embrace the Jing family..."

Snap!

Gu Zhi raised his hand and moved forward. Xu Zhe, who was ten meters away from him, flew out upside down, with five bright red fingerprints on his face.

"Brother Gu, you..."

Hahaha……

Seeing Xu Zhe's ugly appearance as he was being whipped away, Jing Kuan said angrily: "Good fight. Brother Gu is indeed very skilled. Even if King Pinghai wants to do something to you, I will definitely stand in front of you."

Xu Ze touched his face, and the burning pain reminded him that someone had just hit him in the face. "How dare you hit me in the face, I will make you..."

Snap!

Another slap, this time there were five fingerprints on the left and right cheeks, which were quite symmetrical.

"If you finish what you said, you will definitely die!"

Gu Zhi picked up the tableware and a small silver fork on the table and looked at Xu Zhe nonchalantly, not caring about the crown prince at all.

"Brother Gu, his surname is Xu." Jing Kuan reminded in a low voice. The two most noble surnames in the Sun and Moon Continent, one is Yue and the other is Xu, are the two major royal families.

Gu Zhi shook his shoulders and said with a faint smile: "No matter what his surname is, he will die if he is killed."

"That's what you said, that's what you said..."

Now Jing Kuan guessed that Gu Zhi was at least a descendant of someone under the crown, and his background was definitely not small.

Xu Zhe, who was lying on the ground, suddenly stood up, put away his wretched expression, bowed his hands to Gu Zhi, and said, "I'm sorry, it seems I misunderstood something. I will ask my father to visit me another day.

"

He took a deep look at Gu Zhi, took note of his appearance, then turned around and left, thinking to himself: I am afraid that this guy Jing Kuan has plotted against him. A fellow of the same age who is about the same age as him does not use martial arts and soul power.

To be able to fly him away from the air, he could only be a descendant from a traditional soul master clan.

After he left, the boss came to serve the food in person. The boss of this restaurant was actually a mature woman who still had charm. After a few words of greetings with Gu Zhi and Jing Kuan, he left at the right time. It was obvious that he had become a fierce dragon across the river.

Looks familiar here.

"I caused trouble for Brother Gu today and got you involved in the dispute between our two families. If you hadn't been here, I would have fallen into Xu Zhe's scheme."

Jing Kuan raised the glass cup filled with red wine syrup and touched it gently with Gu Zhi.

"I have a glass of wine, brother!"

Gu Zhi nodded and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

"I will not participate in power struggles. Today, that person just has a bad mouth, so I will teach him a lesson."

You almost killed someone, so you just want to teach me a lesson.

Jing Kuan didn't think Gu Zhi was threatening. He would really kill a prince without hesitation, and it was just because of the other party's verbal offense.

"But I think Brother Gu will be involved in the dispute between my family and the Xu family, because this is not a simple power dispute, but the alternation of the old and new order.

But few soul masters would lend a helping hand to civilians and then communicate with them on an equal footing. There are still some fellow travelers in my family who are establishing an order to limit the privileges of the nobility, but we are not optimistic, and we even see the imperial power once again becoming dominant.

future.

But if Brother Gu is willing to join and become our partner, maybe we can succeed."

The traditional soul master clans of the Sun and Moon Continent are a force that cannot be ignored. The Tianlong Sect, Lei Teng Family, and Hundred Weapon Sect combined, plus some soul master families, are enough to shake the royal family.

Gu Zhi was very curious and said: "It's interesting. Why do you think that the imperial power will become dominant again, history will go backwards, and the old order will resurrect."
