Chapter 20 020 Hedong County (4)


Chapter 20 020 Hedong County (4)

After the young monk left, Wang Wu immediately turned around and walked towards the passage.

When walking out of the passage, like the people in front of him, he was ready to take things over and check them.

However, the soldier in charge of the inspection shook his head at him and said: "No need, the Immortal Master has already checked those things of yours, just leave."

"Thank you." Wang Wu thanked him and walked forward.

Hedong County, I don’t know what level of county it is, but just looking at the spacious stone avenue on the ground is enough to feel its prosperity.

The road was busy with traffic and there were people everywhere.

Not necessarily a lot of rubbing shoulders, but definitely a lot.

This county is very, very big. Wang Wu estimated that the population might not be less than 100,000.

This was his guess based on the scale of ancient towns. After all, in ancient society, a population of more than one million was an international super metropolis, and a population of 100,000 was obviously a large city level.

Of course, given the productivity of this world and the extraordinary power that exists in this world, the population of the city may be larger than that of ordinary ancient societies like his hometown.

Walking towards the county town, although there are various inns and businesses at the door, Wang Wu still planned to take a walk around the county town first.

After all, he had just arrived in this city of human society, and he was very curious about everything. Naturally, he would not just buy what he wanted and leave.

Besides, he now has to think about how to take the things he bought back home.

Obviously, he couldn't carry so much food by himself, so he would need a carriage. And he doesn't know how to ride a horse, let alone drive a carriage.

These all need to be learned, but Wang Wu feels that it should not take long, probably about two or three days.

In addition, he also noticed something while queuing outside the city, that is, the monks in this world seemed to have an ability similar to portable space.

He remembered clearly how the young monk took out such a large mirror as tall as a person:

He shook his sleeves, and a huge mirror flew out of his sleeves and stood on the ground. With such ability, Wang Wu has no doubt that he definitely wants it.

If he had such skills, what kind of carriage would he need? Just wave your hand, collect all the things, and take them back. That is much more convenient than a carriage.

Therefore, Wang Wu planned to find an inn to stay at tonight and ask the assassin brother there to see if there was such a technique in his hometown.

However, the two worlds are different, so he is not sure whether the skills that a monk who is weaker than him can possess here are also the same in the power system over there.

But he felt that this should be possible. After all, the world where the killer brother is located is very advanced at first glance, it should be much more advanced than the world here, and this kind of skill should be very common there.

Wang Wu was wandering on the streets of Hedong County. From time to time he could hear the people around him whispering about him, and from time to time he could feel the eyes that were always on him.

This feeling, how should I put it, may be a bit interesting at first, but after a long time, it becomes a bit uncomfortable. Especially when the content those people are talking about also contains some...

Wang Wu also couldn't understand why he was still attracted by men since he didn't look like a woman...

Forget it, it doesn’t matter.

There was nothing I could do anyway, after all, they were just whispering there to their friends, and logically others should not be able to hear.

"Selling cooking cakes! Selling cooking cakes! Selling cooking cakes! Selling cooking cakes!"

However, at this moment, a voice reached Wang Wu's ears, causing him to turn his head and look in the direction from which the voice came.

Mainly because of the cry of "selling cooking cakes", he suddenly felt as if he had returned to his hometown, where he watched the short winter melon Wu Dalang in the Water Margin.

Although the accent of that voice is different, this voice and this voice are exactly the same.

Therefore, Wang Wu immediately looked at the other party. When he saw the other party, he was also stunned.

Damn it, is this really Wu Dalang? He is short, with a height of less than 1.5 meters, which really fits the sentence in the novel: 'short stature, ugly appearance, long upper body and short lower body, three inches of Ding Gu tree bark'.

"Brother, buy some cooking cakes."

So, Wang Wu walked over and said to Wu Dalang, who although he didn't look like Wu Dalang in the Water Margin TV series, was definitely the same as the description in the novel version.

"Okay!" Wu Dalang looked at Wang Wu coming over and responded enthusiastically. At the same time, I didn’t forget to praise Wang Wu’s appearance:

"Young hero, you are so handsome!"

"Haha." Wang Wu smiled and nodded, "How much does a cake cost?"

"Ten Wen each, how many young heroes do you want?" "Wu Dalang" quickly opened the cake box he was carrying, and immediately, a scent of aroma rushed towards Wang Wu's nose.

Although I don’t know how this cake tastes, it definitely smells good.

"Give me ten." Wang Wu said, then he took out a broken piece of silver from his breast pocket and put it on the cover of another box of "Wu Dalang".

This broken piece of silver is worth almost two hundred cents, and the purchasing power of ten cents is almost equal to that of a piece from my hometown. Wang Wu had a rough understanding of prices in this world when he was in Mawang Village.

One tael of silver costs three thousand coins, and three thousand coins is equivalent to three hundred yuan.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Wang Wu didn't know how much a tael of silver weighed, and he didn't have a scale from his hometown. But in terms of purchasing power, one tael of silver is worth 300 yuan, ten taels of silver is worth 3,000 yuan, and one hundred taels of silver is worth 30,000 yuan.

And the silver ingots in his hand were indeed not fifty taels each, but probably thirty taels. He weighed them with a scale. In other words, that one ingot of silver is equivalent to nine thousand yuan in my hometown.

And in his bag, there were more than fifty silver ingots, a total of four hundred and fifty thousand yuan.

And so much silver was only less than half of what was in the box.

Wang Wu remembered that there were three boxes in the big pit. If calculated, one box contained more than one million silver coins, and the three boxes of silver ingots were estimated to be worth four to five million in total.

That's four to five million. In this world, a house shouldn't be that expensive.

"Boss, how much does a house here cost?" Wang Wu asked curiously, watching the boss quickly loading cakes for him.

"A house?" 'Wu Dalang' stopped moving for a while, raised his head and thought for a moment, and then said to Wang Wu:

“It depends on the location, right?”

"The cheaper ones are more than a hundred taels, the more expensive ones are four to five hundred, and the more expensive ones are tens of thousands." 'Wu Dalang' replied.

Then, he smiled and asked: "Young hero, are you planning to settle in our Hedong County?"

"That's not true." Wang Wu shook his head and took the cake handed over by 'Wu Dalang', but confiscated the money he asked for. "Boss, do you know where the headquarters of Wang's Trading Company in this city is?"

"Headquarters?" 'Wu Dalang' was stunned for a moment, and then he realized: "Young man is talking about the head office, right?"

"That's right." Wang Wu nodded repeatedly, "Do you know where the boss is? If you are willing to take me there, the remaining change will be regarded as hard work."

"Hey! That's easy to say!" 'Wu Dalang' smiled cheerfully and handed over the change, "But the money still needs to be changed, young hero, there is no need to be so polite."

"No, your cake tastes good, so I'll give it to you as a reward." Wang Wu pushed the money back again.

"Then..." 'Wu Dalang' had an embarrassed smile on his face and scratched the back of his head, "Then it's better to obey orders than to be respectful, young hero. Just follow me."

After closing the lid and picking up the burden, 'Wu Dalang' walked in front, motioning for Wang Wu to follow, and the two of them walked towards the headquarters of Wang's Trading Company.

After learning that the silver had the Wang family's mark on it, Wang Wu changed his mind and had a new idea.
