Chapter 1590 3.036 Pressure
"You can go through, next one!" The soldier guarding the city growled, waving at an old man pushing a wheelbarrow like a fly.
Urging him to hurry into the city and not to block the road.
The old man's left foot was a little lame, and he walked with a stagger and moved slowly.
The soldier urged him several times, full of impatience.
After the old man entered the city, a middle-aged woman followed him and saluted the soldier guarding the city with a basket.
"I went out of the city to do some small business." The woman said with a smile, "I just went out this morning. Can you waive my entry fee? I just paid two spirit coins yesterday."
"You are so bold that you dare to make such an unreasonable request." The soldier said angrily with a gloomy face, "If I waive your entry fee today, what will others think?"
"When the city lord blames you, who will take the responsibility? Can you take it, or can I take it?" The soldier rebuked sternly.
The little woman sobbed, "But small businesses like us often have to go in and out of the city, and we can't make a lot of money in a day. If we have to pay two spirit coins every time we enter the city, we will lose a lot. I have a residence permit, and it hasn't expired yet. I... General, can't you make an exception?"
"This is the rule! Do you want to break the rule? Believe it or not, I will arrest you immediately!" The soldier guarding the city shouted angrily with a sullen face.
"Don't waste everyone's time! If you don't want to enter the city, get out of here! Those who want to enter can come in, and those who don't want to pay, get out! This is the rule set by the city lord. Every time you enter the city, you must pay two spirit coins for the entrance fee! No one can be an exception!"
The little woman cried and was helpless. She had to take out two spirit coins and handed them to the soldier. Then she hunched her back, sighed pitifully, and moved into the city.
Seeing this, Qi Xuanxuan curled her lips and said, "Tsk, they are really unkind! You are right, Qiao Qiao, they are really greedy, they are asking for two spirit coins!"
"Damn, this is twice the price of Julu City."
"Forget it, it's just two small coins, don't bother with them." Qiao Mu said lightly, followed the team forward, and soon arrived at the city gate.
Qiao Mu took out four spirit coins and threw them to the soldiers guarding the city, and glanced at him coldly.
"Can we go in now? We."
The cold voice sounded, and the soldiers guarding the city didn't know why, but they felt a little startled in their hearts, and nodded quickly, "Please, ladies."
Originally, he only thought that the little girl in front of him was very beautiful, but after looking at it for a few more times, he felt a tingling sensation in his head, and he didn't dare to look blindly.
Wengka City, the largest city north of Shuntian Prefecture.
Its architectural style is similar to that of Julu City, and tall bunkers built with beige stones can be seen everywhere.
As soon as you enter the city, you will see a wide official road with many small stalls on both sides, most of which sell small commodities.
Each stall owner tried his best to sell to the new citizens.
There were rarely people selling food. Occasionally, you would see people selling fruits, but most of the oranges or pears were black and rotten, and they were not fresh at all.
How could such things catch Qiao Mu's eye?
