Ho Yuan City, West Gate.
A commercial road leads directly to a suspension bridge outside Xichengmen. It divides into two branches five miles outside the city, a dock connecting the riverside, and the other entering the plain area towards the southwest.
Pedestrians coming and going gathered together, as if it were a huge current, entered the Haoyuan City, with a carriage full of goods and passengers, causing traffic jams outside the gate.
Nie Feng led the horse into the crowd and slowly walked towards the gate of the city.
The gate of Haoyuan City is magnificent and adopts a suspension gate structure, which is enough to accommodate five horse-drawn carriages side by side. The suspension bridge is fixed by two large iron chains and steadily erected on the moat with more than thirty steps.
The wide moat water is drawn from the Jiaping River, and it will undoubtedly require an enormous amount of work to fill it. This line of defense alone is enough to keep the attackers away.
Not to mention a powerful weapon such as a star cannon, defensive crossbow, trebuchet and other powerful weapons arranged on the city wall. Although Haoyuan City has been attacked by many beast waves since its establishment, it has never been captured.
As a matter of fact, the real enemy of this main city with defensive fortifications is not the wild beast nor the army of the Moro Empire, but the demon of the void who does not know when it will break through the space barrier.
The Nether Demon is the common enemy of hundreds of millions of people in the entire Xinghai World!
Because there were too many people entering the city, it was only a mile away, and Nie Feng walked for almost half an hour.
Another important reason for the traffic jam at the city gate is that you need to pay an entry tax for entering the city. One person, one copper coin, is very cheap, but think about the population of the city. This tax is no doubt over the year. It is also a terrible number.
Nie Feng was collected by the tax collector at the gate of the city with one silver and one copper, and the silver coin was the entry tax for his mount.
"This is the horse dung for your mount ..."
After collecting Nie Feng's entry tax, the young tax collector smiled and handed him a sack and said, "Remember to hang it in time, otherwise your horse will be caught by the patrol team in the patrol house if it is anywhere in the city. It will be fine. "
It is indeed the main city, and even the city management, Nie Feng smiled dumbly and nodded: "Thank you for your reminder."
He was about to put on the horse dung, it was simple and not troublesome.
The tax collector also said: "The horse dung bag is not free, you have to give two more silver."
Nie Feng froze: "So expensive?"
He's not bad for money, but this kind of ordinary horse dung bag is more than five bronzes.
The tax collector explained: "This is a special one, with a stamp on it. You won't have to pay any taxes on horses later if you take the mount to get in and out of the gate."
That's it!
Nie Feng asked again: "I have to pay again?"
The tax collector replied patiently: "You can choose to pay five gold coins at one time, receive a tax card, and enter and leave Haoyuan City freely forever. In addition, if you have the Star Tower star card, the individual can be exempt from the city tax."
Star card is still tax deductible?
Nie Feng has gained insight, but he did not show his star card to show off, it was too naive, and he took out two silver coins and handed them to each other: "Thank you for your advice."
After paying the entry tax, Nie Feng took the green corner horse and stepped on a solid and heavy suspension bridge, and then passed through the huge and wide gate to enter the largest city on the vast star.
The prosperity of the main city of Haoyuan is not comparable to that of Nanyuan City. The avenue connecting the gate is not only very spacious, but also the ground is paved with thick blue-gray slate, which is very flat and clean.
Both sides of the main road are full of shops. Most of the houses are at least four or five storeys high, and there are also seven or eight storeys. The style of the building is diverse. The carved beams and painted buildings are ancient, and the gold signboards are suspended from the high gallery. Dizzying.
Walking on the bustling streets, I feel like walking into a strange forest, lost in it and not knowing it, especially those who are newcomers, and will probably involuntarily generate some kind of awe and fear.
This city is really too big!
"This boy ..."
Nie Feng had not walked ten steps just after entering the city, and a few busy men on the street gathered around at once, asking in a chatter: "Are you going to stay or eat? Do you want to do anything? Let's do it I'm most familiar ... "
These idle men are all strong and strong. A few people around Nie Feng also seem to have a strong momentum. If they are replaced by ordinary people, I am afraid they have no idea how to deal with it.
They are all local figures of the second class of the local people. They usually rely on pits to cheat and make a living, and they lie to foreigners like Nie Feng who have just arrived in Haoyuan City.
Nie Feng is a single horse, very young, and looks very oily, so these idle guys are distorted, playing the banner of enthusiastic help, and don't know how many evil thoughts are moving around in their heads.
But what kind of character Nie Feng was, and he didn't talk nonsense with them, directly releasing the star power.
"Uh…"
A few idle guys who were looking for a cheap one were instantly creepy, and felt that the "Hunk" in front of them suddenly turned into a bloodthirsty beast. The inexplicable fear began to rise from his heart, and he could not help changing his face and backed away.
They realized that when they saw it, they bumped into the iron plate, all of them were like wild dogs kicked on their buttocks, fled in a hurry, disappeared in a nearby alley in a blink of an eye.
Nie Feng was too lazy to talk to them, but he was too strange to Hao Yuancheng and really needed a guide.
"you…"
Nie Feng beckoned at a commoner boy squatting beside the shop not far away: "Come here."
Boyi boy noticed Nie Feng long ago.
But just now he was afraid to grab business with those idle guys. Now the situation is different. He glanced around quickly and then leaped forward and rushed to Nie Feng.
The fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy nodded his head and asked, "My son, what would you tell me?"
In the previous scene where Nie Feng scared the idle man back, he all looked at him, knowing that Nie Feng was not an idle character, so he was extra respectful.
Nie Feng said, "My first visit to Haoyuan City, I need a guide, how much is it to hire you for a day?"
The boy in the commoner's eyes suddenly flashed, and he licked his lips, carefully raising a finger: "a silver."
This price is quite conscience.
Nie Feng smiled and threw a coin to the other side.
The commoner boy quickly caught it, and upon closer inspection, Huang Chengcheng was actually a gold coin!
Nie Feng said: "Let's go, take me to the inn first, the location should be good and comfortable."
The boy in the commoner woke up and smiled with a crooked mouth: "Okay, okay!"
