Start from Wusheng

Chapter 183 The trip to the capital city was stressful
"Integrated Thousand Miles Smoke Waves Step, basic light skill lv8→lv10."

"Trial Project (Four Stars): Basic Light Skills have been completed, Experience Points +5000."

"Your current basic Qinggong is lv4/Lv10."

After the panel fusion, the basic light skill absorbed the unique footwork of "trading injury for speed", and the upper limit was raised to lv10.

This technique was finally finalized, and it also allowed Zhou You to complete his first four-star task.

After receiving 5000 experience points, Zhou You became rich instantly.

Although Qinggong is still level 4, it seems that there is no improvement, but the additional feature of exchanging damage for speed is like adding wings to a tiger, and the effect in actual combat is even stronger. "

"Mom and Dad, I'm going to stay with Grandpa for a while."

At the construction site, Zhou You found his father and told him that he would be away for a while.

That's right, he was going out again and wanted to go to the provincial capital to explore the route.

If Gongliang City follows the same path as Sucheng, the family’s only option is to go to the larger and safer provincial capital.

Recently, the leading figures in Gongliang City have been secretly buying houses and shops in the provincial capital to build up their family businesses.

Senior Brother Lu Qiang is never in the martial arts gym and is often out, and it is he who does this for Wang Lao Hu.

Before the disaster, animals, insects and ants all noticed it, not to mention humans, the most intelligent creatures on earth.

Given his situation, she would most likely not be taken with him when the martial arts school evacuated, and she would have to find a way out on her own.

"Okay, go ahead, and don't forget to bring two pounds of pears to Grandpa."

Zhou You left Taigong's house and rushed towards the provincial capital without stopping.

There was no water in the wells, no crops in the fields, all the livestock had died, but the wild dogs and wolves were full of food.

Regardless of whether they are rich or poor, people suffer bankruptcy and death on a large scale. It is truly the case that all beings are equal under natural disasters!
The world was becoming increasingly turbulent. When passing through a village, I saw the entire village, young and old, gathered at the entrance.

They led out the emaciated livestock and killed them for their meat, then set fire to the houses and fields, all holding up hoes and shovels... and became robbers!

A few days later, Zhou You arrived 20 miles outside the city and saw the heads of the villagers hanging on rows of wooden poles for public display.

Wild dogs gathered in groups under the wooden poles, licking the blood!
From the wilderness to the city, chaos disappeared and order returned to the surface.

The city has eight gates, each of which is 8 meters high, large enough to accommodate 20 people passing through shoulder to shoulder and hand in hand.

The city gates were wide open and the ground was swept clean. Not even a speck of dust, let alone gravel, could be found.

Traveling into the city, it felt like being transported into another world.

The city gate behind separated the hellish hunger, plague and killing, and the surroundings were filled with an atmosphere of peace and comfort.

Zhou You now looked like Lu Zhigang, carrying bank deposits from all over the world and wearing a sword on his waist.

The sword is a magical weapon of qi and blood, originally a family heirloom of Captain Qu, and is extremely sharp. The charm core on it has been removed and used.

As a warrior, equipped with magical weapons of qi and blood, he looks like someone who is not someone to be trifled with.

When asked about the money houses in the world, every passerby knew them and they quickly showed Zhou You the way.

The world's money bank...

Standing in front of the tall door, Zhou You took a deep breath and walked in.

"Deposit or withdraw?"

"Pick!"

"Name, voucher, deposit ticket!"

Zhou You reported Lu Zhigang's name, took out the token and deposit slip, and his whole body was almost tense.

He was standing not far from the gate, so if anything was really wrong, he could immediately take action and fight his way out.

The money he had in his account totaled 27408 taels of real gold and silver. Even though he was in the middle stage of Qi and Blood, it was difficult for him to carry so many precious metals at once!

If he encountered an ambush, he would have no choice but to abandon his wealth to save his life in order to escape, which was the last thing he wanted to happen.

He was received by a receptionist who was in his early forties, smart and capable. He checked the information and confirmed that it was correct.

"Does the customer want to take all the money away, or change it into cash?"

“Bring them all up.”

A moment later, a large box was placed in front of him, with neatly arranged silver ingots inside and the weight marked with a steel stamp on the bottom.

There were large ingots weighing 50 taels each, small ingots weighing 10 taels each, and some loose silver pieces.

Zhou You took out the change from 408 taels and waved his hand, "Exchange the rest into banknotes for me."

The banknotes issued by the world's money houses are valid all over the world. There are money houses wherever there are cities, and they can be cashed anywhere.

And there is another advantage, it is easy to hide and transport.

Of course, this is not the reason why Zhou You exchanged real gold and silver for banknotes.

Because he decided to spend all the money in the capital city without leaving a single bill.

The current situation is turbulent, and one feels at ease only when one holds real money in one's hands. He changed it into banknotes just to make it easier to spend.

The 27000 taels of banknotes were clenched in a stack in his hand and only bulged slightly when stuffed into his chest.

Zhou You listened to the hustle and bustle in the money house and suddenly realized that his worries were unnecessary.

There were no difficulties or conspiracies, and the whole process was as smooth as flowing water.

A cash flow of 2 or 3 taels is nothing but a drop in the bucket for all the money houses in the world.

Before Zhou You left Tianxia Money House, he even saw a fat man with a big belly and dozens of strong men carrying away a silver box containing 20 taels of silver.

I felt a little relieved, knowing that the treasures of Moyun Village would not be a problem in the capital city.

Now that I have money, what should I buy?

Zhou You originally wanted to buy a house so that he would have a place to stay when he moved to the capital city in the future.

But when I got to the market, I shook my head and said I couldn't afford it. I really couldn't afford it.

Small and medium-sized cities in various places were destroyed one after another, and the surviving population poured into more solid large cities, such as the provincial capital, which directly led to a boom in the real estate market and a sharp rise in land and housing prices.

Thirty or twenty thousand taels is enough to buy a villa in the center of Gongliang City, but in Fucheng...

Apart from old and dilapidated houses, those located in marginal areas, and those where all kinds of people live together, there are really no good houses that you like.

Zhou You had to give up this idea for the time being and just walk around to get familiar with the city's environment.

The culture of practicing martial arts is even stronger in the capital city. There are martial arts schools on almost every street and the sounds of boxing can be heard in every household.

The martial arts hall is larger, the gates are taller, the masters inside are more powerful, and all of them have been through hundreds of battles. Their names are enough to scare people to death!
What iron spine and golden pupils, hatred for the overlord, and rising three feet from the ground...

The owners of some martial arts schools are intermediate or even advanced martial artists.

Oh, if Wang Lao Hu really moves to the provincial capital, I’m afraid it will be difficult for him to survive in such a highly competitive environment!

Wang Jianxiong is a junior martial artist and is already old. He can still be a leader in Gongliang City, but once he arrives in the provincial capital, it will be a completely different circle. There are too many strong and ruthless people, and the competition is fierce. He is afraid that he will not even be able to rank at the bottom.

In small places, it depends on connections; in big places, it depends on ability!
There are many martial arts schools and many people practicing martial arts. Even those who collect protection fees on the streets are members of powerful gangs.

In taverns, tea shops and other places open for business, there are more or less blood-qi warriors to watch over the place.

Zhou You counted on his fingers, wondering what kind of job he could find after coming to the capital.
Well, probably because I can’t find a job!
Fucheng may seem more tolerant, but its inherent xenophobia is just as severe as Gongliangcheng.

A truly good job comes with its own invisible barriers. Without a recommendation from someone you know, forget it.
