Chapter 1380: The Gold-Swilling Cave in the City
"Have you ever tried soul searching?"
Ye Qingyu narrowed her eyes. Everything was too perfect, making people feel a little unnatural. Therefore, she felt that there must be something wrong.
Hearing this, Han Qianbai was stunned at first, and then said.
"Goddess Queen, the soldiers in this Giant Spirit City are fighting bloody battles on the front line at this moment. If we search their souls without any reason, won't this give Chen Wudao a handle?"
"And searching the soul openly will affect the morale of the army if it is spread out."
"It's not that I don't want to, but we must at least pay attention to the impact."
Han Qianbai is loyal to Ye Qingyu, but he is also a creature born and raised in the Central Universe. For Giant Spirit City, no matter what the other commander is like, these soldiers have done nothing wrong.
In fact, they have paid more.
Soul searching is not a glorious thing in itself in the eyes of outsiders. If it is used on the soldiers in the city, won't it give Chen Wudao an excuse to deal with them?
And these soldiers should not bear this.
Ye Qingyu frowned at Han Qianbai's words. She didn't expect that her own supervisory guards couldn't do it. This was obviously the best method!
As for what these soldiers think, it's none of her business!
Just as Ye Qingyu was about to speak, Cao Xiaochun stopped her directly.
"Okay, he makes sense. Juling City can't have too big an accident now. At least, this city can't be lost while we are here."
Cao Xiaochun sighed and said slowly.
"Since nothing can be found from the soldiers, who is managing the daily affairs of this city now, or who is maintaining the relationship between these merchants and refugees?"
"Merchants raise prices uniformly and plan the prices so uniformly. There must be someone planning behind it, right?"
In the absence of obvious guilt, openly searching the souls of soldiers, and in such a sensitive city, no matter who does such a thing, will be hated.
Cao Xiaochun naturally won't do such a thankless task, so he is ready to start from another angle. Sometimes, things that are perfect on the surface actually have more loopholes!
Hearing Cao Xiaochun's words, Han Qianbai breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, and continued.
"There are three forces managing the operation of Juling City now, Chenyuan Pavilion, Happy Forest, and Merchants' Union."
"Among them, the Merchants' Union manages all merchants entering and leaving Juling City, sets the prices of goods, and has extremely powerful sales channels."
Chenyuan Pavilion manages all the shops in Juling City, maintains the stability of its own streets, and ensures the safety of shops. It is said that they are an alliance formed by the wealthy merchants in Juling City.
At first, it was for their own industries in Juling City, but as the war intensified, those shop owners could not maintain it with their own strength.
Therefore, they sought the protection of these alliances. Seeing that more and more shops were seeking protection, the alliance expanded more and more, and finally called itself Chenyuan Pavilion.
They protected everything at the cost of collecting a part of the profits of the shops.
And Happy Forest, it faced the ordinary people. Although Juling City was dilapidated on the surface, its own heritage was still there. At night, it was still brightly lit and had complete entertainment facilities.
No one knows the origin of the boss of Happy Forest. They only know that after the war broke out, he continued to develop underground in the city and took in many refugees, even strong men.
He built civil engineering underground and established various entertainment facilities. Because of his own strength and tolerance for refugees, Happy Forest soon took in all the entertainment means in Juling City.
Now Juling City has become a private land for soldiers, and those who are powerful and willing to enjoy go to the underground Happy Forest.
Originally, Happy Forest's whereabouts were secretive and it would not be so easy to find out.
There is no impenetrable wall in this world. Han Qianbai learned about this force from some refugees who knew about it and yearned for Happy Forest. After following the clues, he also roughly understood everything.
Hearing this, Cao Xiaochun smiled. He didn't expect that the distribution of forces in this city was so complicated. Even when everyone was fighting hard, a Happy Forest was derived.
"Do you think these three forces have anything to do with Chen Wudao?"
Cao Xiaochun said slowly.
"Hmph, as the supreme ruler of Juling City, how could he hide everything in this city?"
"If these forces did not have the support or acquiescence of Chen Wudao, such forces would not exist."
Ye Qingyu said disdainfully. She suspected that these forces were cultivated by Chen Wudao. The Merchants Guild was a means to control foreign materials, Chenyuan Pavilion controlled food materials, and Happy Forest was a complete den of money.
Controlling this lifeline, plus the continuous resources of the Order Dynasty, the resources in Chen Wudao's hands are now more than sky-high!
As for how much he used in Juling City, it is simply unknown.
"Master, where do you think we should start to investigate these three forces?"
Ye Qingyu looked at Cao Xiaochun and said with a smile.
Since there are clues here, we must naturally follow these clues to investigate.
"What do you think, among these three forces, which force has the most lucrative things?"
Cao Xiaochun thought about it and said quickly.
"Of course it's Happy Forest. Giant Spirit City is different from other cities. People who can afford it don't need the food here at all. People who can't afford it, just like we saw before, have already gone out to look for it. Come to life."
"The only people left who need these things are those who have some savings and are still struggling, so there is no doubt about this."
"The same goes for the merchants' union. I think their arrival is not just about selling goods. Ordinary goods don't have a big market here."
"But Happy Forest is different. According to Han Qianbai's description, it is a gold-selling cave with complete facilities. Because of the chaos here, the bottom line inside will only be lower."
"Maybe Happy Forest is an alternative fallen world. As long as the elements of casual killing and precariousness in the fallen world are removed."
"And to ensure the life safety and service quality of the rich, then here is a huge gold-swallowing beast, and even the environment in Giant Spirit City will strengthen the growth of this force."
As the God of Eternity, she is very aware of the evil nature of the creatures in the universe. When all materials are basically satisfied, powerful stimulation is their pursuit. After all, in this troubled world, she already knows clearly what her own cultivation can achieve. extent.
Perfect enjoyment and unprecedented excitement are what they pursue, and Happy Forest obviously meets their expectations.
