Chapter 164 Going to the Capital

Three months later, Jin Yuezhou, the capital of the Great Shang Kingdom, arrived in Beijing...

A slanting wind and drizzle enveloped the upper capital, causing the peach blossoms along the Qin'an River eight hundred miles away to scatter into the river, almost dyeing the water pink.

The Qin'an River goes all the way east for 800 miles, bypassing the north of Shangjing City like a moat, and then goes straight to the sea. More than 300 miles to the east of Shangjing City is the sea. There is also the Donggang District of Shangjing City. The entire city More than half of the various goods, money and grain transported from the southern part of the Shang Dynasty to Shangjing City were transported by sea to Donggang and disembarked...

Needless to say, there is no need to mention the prosperity of Shangjing City Donggang.

On Pier 7 of Donggang, a giant cruise ship with three huge chimneys and a length of nearly 200 meters slowly docked amidst the sound of its whistle.

As the huge cruise ship docked, the passengers who had been on the cruise ship for more than half a month braved the drizzle and got off the ship one after another carrying large and small bags.

Shangjingcheng is a dream destination for many people.

This is the capital of the Great Shang Kingdom and the seat of the Holy See of the Dark God of War in Jin Yue Continent. This is the most prosperous and largest city in Jin Yue Continent with a permanent population of over ten million. It seems that as long as a person comes here, he will be able to enjoy the countless wealth here. Reputation, status, and prosperity are all related to those big figures who influence the pattern of all nations.

In the city of Shangjing, countless people come here every day to pan for gold, and countless people hope to soar into the sky and become a blockbuster here.

"My dear friend Ping'an, the headquarters of the Divine Advocate's Adjudication Army is located at Fengyu Mountain in the north of Shangjing City. It's still a long way from here to Fengyu Mountain. I'm here to wish you a future adjudicator and great achievements in Shangjing City. , My little friend, if you have time in the future, please come to Wanli Bookstore on Jingcheng East Street and meet me for tea and chess..."

On the cruise ship, a well-dressed old man wearing a top hat and gold-rimmed glasses, holding a cane in his hand, was saying goodbye to Xia Pingan.

This old man was Xia Pingan's "roommate" in the cabin on the cruise ship. Xia Pingan lived in a two-person ordinary cabin on the cruise ship, and this old man was another tenant in the cabin.

The old man's surname is Jing, Jing Yuxing. He is a native of Shangjing City. He opened a small bookstore in Shangjing City. Some time ago, the old man went to Jinzhou to visit friends. When he came back, he took this cruise ship and happened to meet Xia Xia. Stay in one room safely.

These days on the cruise ship, Xia Pingan played chess and chatted when the old man was bored. After more than half a month, they got along very well.

"Thank you, Mr. Jing. When I settle down, I will find time to play chess and drink tea with Mr. Jing..." Xia Pingan said to the old man with a smile.

In Xia Pingan's impression, although this old man opened a bookstore, he was well-spoken and well-informed. After half a month, Xia Pingan just chatted with this old man and gained a lot.

"Hahaha, okay, then it's settled!" Mr. Jing smiled, his face became a little more serious, and he said earnestly, "Before we leave, I have one more thing to say to my little friend. This is the capital of Jinyue Continent. The most prosperous place is also the most dangerous place. My friend is here for the first time. Even if you have ambitions, you should be careful in everything. Do you know why the locals in Shangjing City never eat the food from Qin'an River? river fish?”

"Why?"

Mr. Jing pointed to the Qin'an River not far away and sighed, "The Qin'an River will be cleaned every more than ten years. Every time it is cleaned, no one knows how many ship's bones are cleared out. Those bones are not tied to iron bodies. The hands and feet are tied with chains, the head is missing, the bones are broken, the tendons are broken, and the bones are black. Who among the locals will eat the fish coming out of the river?"

"Thank you, Mr. Jing, for telling me, I will be careful!" Xia Pingan said seriously.

"That's it, let's say goodbye!" Mr. Jing and Xia Ping'an said goodbye. They took out a black oilcloth umbrella from their suitcase, opened the umbrella, carried the suitcase, and walked down the stairs on the deck to get off the ship and disappeared below. Among the vast crowd.

Mr. Jing is not young, but his body is quite strong and does not look old at all. He is holding a box in his hand and his back is straight.

Watching Mr. Jing leave, Xia Pingan also carried his suitcase, mixed in with the crowd, and got off the boat.

The suitcase was bought by Xia Pingan before. It was a brown cowhide suitcase. It was quite good-looking. People who travel long distances do not take a suitcase with them. It would be too conspicuous when walking in the crowd. Many people would look at it curiously. A suitcase would look much more ordinary.

A little drizzle fell on Xia Pingan's face, which was slightly cool. Xia Pingan walked towards the pier among the crowd. In a daze, he felt like he was back in the days when he drifted north.

It's so similar.

In my previous life, I drifted north for the purpose of studying and getting ahead, but this time I came to Beijing for the same purpose. Shangjing City of the Great Shang Kingdom is a gathering place for Jinyuezhou’s resources, information, power, and experts. At the same time, it is also the largest country in Jinyuezhou. Library and National Archives.

For a summoner, the fastest place to practice is not in the mountains and forests, but in the bustling city in front of you.

As long as you can get ahead in this city, the training resources you can obtain are absolutely unmatched by other places. At the same time, it is also the most likely place to find clues to the Dark Tower.

The protective armed force of the Dark God of War is called the Judgment Army. Those who can join the Judgment Army must be summoners, and the Judgment Army recruits externally. Summoners who are not from the Great Zhou Kingdom, as long as they are before the Yiyang Realm, can come here to try. See if you can join the Judgment Army.

The summoners who join the Judgment Army are all the best of the best. Once they join the Judgment Army, they become a part of the Judgment of the Dark God of War, and that means they have found the "organization".

I just heard that it is very difficult to join the Judgment Army and the conditions are strict. When the Judgment Army selects summoners, they almost always choose one from a hundred, the best from the best, and the best from the best.

Xia Ping'an left the dock with the crowd of people disembarking. After the bustling crowd walked out of the dock, they came to the street outside the dock.

On the streets here, rows of rickshaws were parked on the side of the road. Those rickshaws were almost identical to rickshaws. When they saw people pouring out, the rickshaw drivers ran over and started picking up the customers.

In addition to rickshaws, Xia Pingan saw four-wheeled carriages, cars and trams on the streets of the city.

The big grasshoppers I saw in Dawan City before were nowhere to be seen here.

When the rickshaw pullers came over, people from various dental shops waiting outside the pier exit were also holding signs recruiting various workers, including nannies, maids, boys, various apprentices, and nurses. The hospital bodyguards have everything you need...

Seeing the pretty young woman walking out of the exit carrying something, a large number of dental shop employees holding signs recruiting maids and nannies rushed over and started promising various conditions.

Some beggars and newspaper sellers also came over.

There was some confusion at the exit...

The scene in front of me is somewhat similar to the demon capital in the old society.

Xia Pingan, who was crowded in the crowd, had just taken a few steps when he felt two chopsticks quickly reaching into his pocket from the side...
