Nine Turns of Nirvana

The silhouettes of the three people moved quickly between the sea of ​​clouds, and it didn't take long before they arrived at the interior of Heiliang City.

Boisterous voices of people came one after another, and the interior turned out to be a noisy, bustling and lively scene. In addition, there were blooming flowers and colorful neon lights, which looked like a Christmas festival.

"Is this really the most remote star field among all the worlds?" Fu Jing said with emotion, "We have been to many high-dimensional cities, but we have never encountered anything like this. The scene, even in the glorious city of Dongxu Tribe Dragon Clan, there is no such scene..."

Lu Yu said: "The situation is different. Brilliant City is the headquarters of the Dragon Clan of the Dongxu Tribe. It is hidden in the Qinghui Realm and is not open to the outside world. Therefore, there will never be such a lively scene. In terms of the scale of the building alone, Brilliant City is The achievements of the city are not inferior to those of this place... But you are right, this place does not look like a remote place where exiles gather. "

"Where do you plan to start first?" Fu Jing turned to Lu Yu and said, "The flow of people here is so dense, and the relationships must be complicated. If you want to figure out all the situations, I don't know how long it will take..."

Lu Yu looked at the bustling crowd in front and said: "No matter how complicated the situation here is, the people related to the Freemasonry must be the ruling class here. As long as we grasp this, we will be able to catch the Freemasonry sooner or later... …But there’s no need to worry, let’s just walk around and take a look at the situation here.”

After saying that, Lu Yu took the lead and walked into the crowded street.

When Fu Jing and Huo Yunru saw this, they quickly followed.

The cries of various vendors can be heard all the time.

The situation here is actually quite similar to that of Fengze City. The only difference is that Fengze City is a floating city. Its streets are made up of cargo ships and boats, while this is a real bustling street. , if we put aside the types of goods sold, this place is not much different from a market in the secular world.

Lu Yu led the two women around and found that the goods were not much different from those in Fengze City. It could even be said that the quality of the goods was slightly inferior... He knew where the problem was. The only ones targeted here were They are just some retail investors. Really high-quality goods will not appear here. For example, goods shipped by trading groups like the Jinghai Caravan will not land directly here, but will go through specialized bulk commodity transactions. After that, they will be distributed to various stalls by the chamber of commerce in the city.

Therefore, the political power of Heiliang City is actually controlled by various chambers of commerce. These chambers of commerce send representatives according to their respective market shares, provide resource and wealth support, and jointly form a trade council. Under the framework of this trade council, they recruit The army, the establishment of laws...it is actually the coalition government of this dark city.

"The prices of these products are too expensive..." Fu Jing said with emotion.

When she was in Fengze City, she and Lu Yu personally visited the market in Fengze City and had a certain understanding of prices. The price of a product of the same quality here was basically more than three times that in Fengze City. , some are even seven or eight times.

Lu Yu spread his hands and said: "Now you can feel that this is a remote place, right? It is said that the area outside the Cancer Star Territory is just a desert. Except for the terrifying void beasts, there are no traces of any human activities... … Therefore, most of the goods here still come from the area of ​​the Central Dynasty. They are sold all the way from such a long distance, and the price is not too outrageous.”

Fu Jing nodded and said: "It's a pity that we still have important things to complete. Otherwise, if we rely on the speed of the Ark on the other side to run back and forth between here and the Central Dynasty, maybe we can build one soon." A huge fleet!"

Lu Yu shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true..."

"Huh? Why?"

There was a hint of depth in Lu Yu's eyes: "Because the prices here should be controlled by the parliament, or more accurately, they should be controlled by the Freemasons... Only they can make this money. If it were anyone else, , trying to establish a stable trade route between the Central Fairy Court and the Cancer Star Territory will definitely be resisted by them. "

Fu Jing asked doubtfully: "How do you know?"

Lu Yu said: "The reason is very simple. Where do you think Lord Evergreen Bone's Northern Swirl Fleet will come from? Judging from the current situation, Lord Evergreen Bone is just a leader of the Freemasonry at best, like I don’t know how many fleets there are in the Northern Xuan District. Where do you think these fleets will come from? If the Freemasons don’t have a stable and profitable way to make money, do you think they can gather such a large fleet? "

Fu Jing was stunned and said, "So, do you think the Freemasonry's way of making money is to control prices here and make high profits?"

Lu Yu said: "There may be some discrepancies in the details, but the general direction should be correct, and they must have a stable trade route that provides them with a steady supply of cheap goods from the Central Immortal Courtyard... So, They will never allow anyone else to open another trade route to compete with them. "

Fu Jing nodded thoughtfully and said, "Then if we want to establish a relationship with Freemasonry now, can we start from this point?"

Lu Yu pondered for a moment and was about to answer.

But at this moment, a figure rushed over very recklessly and almost bumped into him.

"Sorry to bother you guys... I see you've been walking around here for quite a while, but you haven't bought anything yet. Have you not found anything you like?"

The man was a middle-aged man, thin, with a pointed face and a flattering smile on his face, but there was a cunning in his eyes.

"How about this, I have a batch of low-priced discounted items here, I guarantee that you won't find a lower price than mine in the entire Heiliang City, would you like to come and take a look?"
