Chapter 9344 Entering the City
When Zhao Hai heard what Liu Quan said, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Simple, Liu Quan, you have to remember that where there is civilization, there will be trade, and where there is trade, there will be trade." There will be currency, and where there is currency, you can use currency to do many things. In fact, it is a simple sentence, money can communicate God!"
When Liu Quan and Xiang'er heard what Zhao Hai said, they were both stunned. Then they looked at each other and really didn't know what to say. They really didn't expect it. , Zhao Hai actually gave such an answer. This was far different from what they imagined, so neither of them reacted for a while.
Zhao Hai looked at Liu Quan and Xiang'er, smiled slightly and said: "What? Do you feel incredible? In fact, it is nothing. In the world of cultivation, a person wants to practice well and become stronger. , if you want to live forever, you cannot do without the four One thing, Dharma, companionship, wealth, and land, these are the four basic conditions for cultivation. Without these four, how can you cultivate truth and seek immortality? And wealth is among these four conditions. As you can imagine, How important he is, so don’t think that using money is a big deal. Low-level, some things can really be solved with money, and most things can be solved with money."
Liu Quan and Xiang'er responded, and Zhao Hai looked at them. He looked like he was smiling and said: "Of course, we can use money, but we can't put all our thoughts on it. Dharma, lovers, wealth, and land, these four are all for our practice. They It is our help, but it is not our real goal.
The two agreed at the same time, Zhao Hai nodded, and then said: "Okay, let's take a rest, tomorrow we will enter Haizhou City, and then we will truly enter the steel world. "The two of them responded, then saluted Zhao Hai, then turned and left.
After the two people left, Zhao Hai sat quietly in the room. The next moment, a magic circle suddenly appeared in front of him. This magic circle was exactly a water-type magic circle, but this water-type magic circle In the magic circle, no water spells emerged, which made Zhao Hai sigh softly. You must know that this is a water dragon formation. In other words, if he releases this magic circle, there will be water dragons emerging from the magic circle. came out, but now it didn't, how could he not be surprised.
Then Zhao Hai dispersed the magic circle, and then he glanced at his cane. He could feel that his cane could still be used, and the red dragon and green dragon on the cane could also be used. The ghosts can also be used, and these are also his trump cards. Zhao Hai is also confident that he can not be harmed here in the steel world.
On this day, the Giant Whale has been very busy. All kinds of cargo on the ship are being unloaded non-stop, and the sound on the ship has been loud. But fortunately, the cabin where Zhao Hai and the others are located, are all It's a relatively high-grade cabin, and the sound fusion effect is very good. They don't feel noisy when they stay in the room.
It was almost dark the next day when the second officer came to find Zhao Hai and gave him three pieces of identification. What surprised Zhao Hai was that the identification turned out to be They were made of metal, and the three IDs actually had their photos, but they were all black and white photos.
Zhao Hai looked at the three identity certificates and saw their photos on the front, their names, and some other basic information. At the bottom, it also said the words "Permanent Residence Certificate," while on the back it was engraved Three words, steel world, nothing else, only these three words.
This identity certificate does not look very thick, it can even be said to be very thin, but it is very strong and appears to be very tough. What surprised Zhao Hai even more is that although the words on this identity certificate It is engraved on it, but it does not affect the front and back. In other words, if you look at it from the front Look, you can't see the words "Steel World". Looking from the back, you can't see the words engraved on the front. You must know that this identification card is only less than one millimeter thick, but it can do this. It can be seen from this point that the energy here in the steel world is still very powerful.
The second officer looked at Zhao Hai and the others looking at the identity certificates, and he smiled and said: "Actually, your identity certificates are very similar to ours. The difference lies in the words at the bottom. ." After saying that, he took out his identity certificate. Zhao Hai took a look and saw that his identity certificate was almost the same as the identity certificate they used. There was also a photo on the front, name and other things, but only the words at the bottom. It is not a permanent residence permit, but has the words ID card written on it.
Zhao Hai nodded, put away the identity certificate, and then said to the second officer: "Thank you very much. I am very happy to take the ship of the Giant Whale Shipping Company this time. I would like to ask , Giant Whale Shipping Company, does it have business going to other places, such as the Foreign Martial World or the Immortal Martial World?”
When the second officer heard what Zhao Hai said, he was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately said: "Yes, of course there is. If sir wants to go to those two interfaces, you can contact me at that time and I will help you. You arranged it, this is my name tag, please accept it." After that, the second officer took out a name tag and handed it to Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai took the second officer's name tag and saw his name, position, and a contact address underneath. Of course, there was also a number. The second officer pointed to the number and said: "This number is our company's bus number. You You can send me a report and I will receive it."
Zhao Hai nodded and didn't say anything. He just put the business card away. The second officer then said: "It's getting dark today. It's getting late. If you three get off the boat, you want to find It’s not easy to live in a place, so how about the three of you rest on the boat tonight? It won’t be too late to get off the boat tomorrow.” Zhao Hai thought about it and didn’t object. It's getting dark. They'll go down and find a place to stay. It was indeed a bit troublesome, so they stayed on the ship, and the second officer also left. He did not come to disturb Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai and the others rested on the ship for another night. After dawn the next day, they ate on the ship. After breakfast, we got off the Whale.
When Zhao Hai and the others were guarding against the Whale, some sailors on the ship even greeted Zhao Hai and the others. Obviously, they were still very impressed by Zhao Hai and the others. Yes, Zhao Hai also said goodbye to them, and then went to the pier. There were many carriages and some steam cars at the pier. As soon as Zhao Hai and the others got off the ship, some people immediately gathered around them, and they kept coming. introduce yourself, one After listening to their introduction, Zhao Hai realized: "These people are all coachmen, who are waiting here to pull people.
Zhao Hai directly found a coachman and negotiated a price with them. , and then the three of them got on the carriage. This carriage could not be said to be very good, but it was not bad either. The three of them rode the carriage directly into Haizhou City. The closer they got to Haizhou City, the more they marveled at the hugeness of Haizhou City. Majestic.
After the three of them entered the city, they discovered that the city was bigger than they imagined. There were many high-rise buildings in Haizhou City. The tallest buildings had dozens of floors. All of these high-rise buildings were made of masonry. The streets are also very wide, with many steam cars and carriages on them, and on both sides of the streets, there are countless shops. In addition to these, there is another thing that can be seen everywhere in this city, and that is steam pipes. .
Steam pipes can be seen everywhere in the city. These steam pipes are thick and thin, and they are all arranged very neatly. Even on the outer walls of those buildings, there are countless such pipes, which makes this city It seems that there is an alternative science fiction feeling, which even Zhao Hai found very novel, let alone Liu Quan and Xiang'er.
Zhao Hai just told the coachman to take them to a hotel in the city. The coachman agreed and asked Zhao Hai what requirements he had for the hotel. Zhao Hai's requirements were very simple and clean. , safe and reasonably priced. The coachman nodded and sent them to the city.
Zhao Hai looked at the people in the city. This Haizhou City may be because it is a port city, so there are many people from other interfaces here, including people wearing Taoist and martial arts clothes, and some wearing other strange clothes. Even Zhao Hai could hear many strange accents from the people wearing clothes, and he didn't know where they came from.
But in general, there are more people in the steel industry. Some of them wear tuxedos, and some of them wear clothes similar to suits, which look like what the British wore during the Victorian period. Clothes, many people hold walking sticks in their hands, and many women hold small umbrellas or small folding fans. Most people wear hats when they go out.
The carriage traveled through the streets, and soon left the main street and came to another street. After walking around the street for a few times, it came to the front of a hotel. This was a family hotel and an independent building. There is a sign in front of the three-story building that says Old Wenger's Hotel.
The coachman stopped the carriage, opened the door, and asked Zhao Hai and others to get down. The carriage here is also a British carriage. There are doors on both sides of the carriage, and there are windows on the top of the carriage. It has glass and is a very nice carriage. The three people got off the carriage, and the coachman immediately said to Zhao Hai: "Sir, this is the hotel of the old Wenger family. Although their hotel is not very big, the rooms are very clean, and the price is very reasonable. The old Wenger family is running the business, and Mrs. Wenger and his daughter-in-law are good at cooking. It is definitely a good deal for you to live here.”
Zhao Hai nodded, and then said to the driver: "If I still need to use your car these days, how should I contact you?" Zhao Hai knew very well that he might have to stay in Haizhou City for a few days today. If he wanted to take a good tour here, get to know Haizhou City, and learn about the steel industry, he would need a carriage, and this coachman seemed good, so why not just use him.
The coachman was a little embarrassed. He said to Zhao Hai: "Sir, if you really want to use my carriage, you must tell me now. Otherwise, I will usually go to the dock to pick you up. Yes, I don’t have a telegraph machine. That thing is too expensive and I can’t afford it. If you, sir If you really want to use my car, I will come here and wait for you tomorrow. I will only charge you three silver coins a day." This driver is obviously very sincere. He works at the dock and his daily income is the most. It cost about three silver coins and was still very unstable, so he might as well let Zhao Hai rent his car.
