The Cangling Zhang family dominates the continent!
Chapter 21 Transporting Goods
In the shady green mountains, birds are chirping and the bright sunshine is shining on the blooming flowers.
"It's been seventeen years since I came to this world. Time flies so fast," sighed a handsome young man who was strolling along a mountain path, humming a little tune while holding a piece of tender grass in his mouth.
"By the way, didn't I promise to take Chenxue and the others to play in Tianshui City?"
In an instant, he turned into a shadow and ran to the martial arts field first. Seeing that they were not there, he quickly ran to the school.
Although family members aged 12 and above and under 16 are relatively free except for not being able to leave the family, they still need to attend some classes.
As soon as he walked out of the classroom, Zhang Zongde, who was teaching students, saw him, but ignored him. After he finished speaking, he said:
"Chentian, what are you doing here?" Zhang Zongde said to Zhang Chentian at the door.
"Hehe, Fourth Grandpa, I haven't seen you for more than a year. Do you miss you?" Zhang Chentian said with a smile.
"Don't try to fool me. I don't know you. You stopped coming to school when you were 13. I'm asking you to study like your life depends on it."
"What are you talking about? I have already learned everything. There is not much left to learn by staying here," Zhang Chentian said aggrievedly.
During the year that Zhang Chentian was trapped in the secret realm, only a few people in the family knew about it. At that time, people from other forces only became suspicious when they discovered that he had returned with other members of the Zhang family.
"Okay, okay, I can't argue with you, just tell me what you want to say."
Zhang Chentian looked at his cousins and sisters in the audience and said, "Let's talk about it after school."
At this time, Zhang Chenxue and others saw Zhang Chentian and could no longer concentrate on listening. They were hit several times with chalk by Zhang Zongde in the classroom.
After a few hours, most of the people in the school had left, leaving only Zhang Chenxue, Zhang Chenqiu, Zhang Chenchang and six others. Seeing this, Zhang Chenlong did not leave either, wanting to see what was going on.
"Why don't you leave? Do you want me to give you some extra lessons?" Zhang Zongde said to the people in front of him.
"Uh," Zhang Chentian looked at the people who were looking at him eagerly, and said to Zhang Zongde shamelessly: "Fourth Grandpa, I promised to take them to Tianshui City two years ago. Do you think it's possible..."
"No, absolutely not. What if we encounter any danger along the way?"
"Don't worry, Fourth Grandpa. I'm now considered a master in this area within a few dozen miles. I won't be in any danger."
"I have now reached the Condensation Stage," Zhang Chentian said in a voice transmission.
"Is this true?"
"Of course it's true. How could I lie to you?"
"In that case, I won't stop you, but you can only take a few of them with you. The other children are too young. The prerequisite is that you can convince the clan leader," Zhang Zongde said with relief after hearing this.
"Okay, okay."
"Great! Great! We can finally go out and play," Although Zhang Chenxue and Zhang Chenqiu are only fourteen years old and still have a lot of childishness on their faces, it can be seen that they will definitely be beauties when they grow up.
The other four teenagers were also very excited.
"Brother, I want to go too," Zhang Chenlong quickly spoke up when he saw this, fearing that he would be left behind.
"Okay, let's go together," Zhang Chentian nodded and agreed without thinking.
Afterwards, Zhang Chentian brought them to the main hall. At this time, only the clan leader Zhang Zongyu was in the hall.
"Hello, Grandpa. I want to take them to Tianshui City for two days. I promised it before, and I believe you will agree." Zhang Chentian stepped forward and said.
Being stared at by the boy and girl in front of him, Zhang Zongyu couldn't refuse, so he said:
"It just so happens that our family has a batch of spiritual rice and some goods to be shipped, as well as one hundred black-scaled horses that our family has bred, to be sent to Tianshui City for sale. We were originally planning to have your sixth uncle go, but since you're going to Tianshui City, you'll be the one to escort them."
The black-scaled horse is a first-grade, top-grade monster. Although it does not have strong combat power, it has great endurance and is very strong. It is a good helper for hauling goods and traveling.
The black-scaled horses bred by the Zhang family are much better than those bred by other forces, and are also the most popular in the vicinity. However, the Zhang family does not breed many, only about a thousand, and only sells a hundred each year, at the high price of a thousand spirit stones each, but there is still a shortage of supply.
"Okay, Grandpa, just leave it to me."
"Okay, I'm confident in your strength. Don't bring them along to cause trouble in Tianshui City."
"Got it, Grandpa Patriarch, let's go, hahaha."
Zhang Zongyu looked at the young men who were leaving with a smile on his face, saying, "The family will depend on you from now on."
As the group left the family, they saw two middle-aged men approaching. "Haha, Chentian, long time no see. I didn't expect your strength to surpass ours."
"Meet Uncle Sixteen and Uncle Eighteen."
The others also followed Zhang Chentian's example and saluted the two people in front of them.
"Haha, no need to be so polite. Just get on the carriage. We'll get there quickly with these black-scaled horses pulling the goods." Uncle Eighteen said.
"Just let them get on the carriage. I still feel more comfortable riding a horse," Zhang Chentian said with a smile.
"You are still the same as when you were a kid, hahaha."
The people transporting the goods this time are Uncle Sixteen and Uncle Eighteen, two people in the middle stage of Qi Condensation, and forty family generals in the Body Tempering Realm. They were recruited by the family. There was no other way because the Zhang family had too few people and many industries, and the family members were simply too busy to handle it.
In this way, with the help of the black-scaled horse, they arrived at Tianshui City in two days, without any danger along the way.
When they reached the city gate, two people came down immediately and took them into the city.
"How come there are so many of them but they don't have to pay the entrance fee, while we have to pay it? Isn't this bullying?" said a person who was paying the entrance fee dissatisfied.
"Do you know who they are? They are from the Cangling Zhang family, but they are a third-rank family. Of course, they don't need to pay tribute. If you have such a background, you don't have to pay tribute. It's your turn to enter the city or not. If not, get out of here," said the guard on the side without giving any face.
When the Zhang family generals heard these words, they raised their heads confidently. Although they were not members of the Zhang family, they had also gone through numerous selections to become Zhang family generals.
Zhang Chenxue and the others were filled with pride after hearing these words, but they also had some doubts in their hearts.
It's not their fault. After all, the elders in the family have taught them not to be extravagant and not to be arrogant... Although they knew that the family was not weak, they didn't expect the family's influence in this area to be so strong.
Walking into the streets of Tianshui City, you can hear the sounds of hawking on the roadside, and every merchant is trying his best to display his best goods.
"Look, look, here's the egg of the second-level demon beast, the Green Scaled Eagle. It only costs 5,000 spirit stones. Don't miss it if you're passing by."
"Candied haws, covered with a layer of first-grade medium-quality spiritual honey," each string only costs 5 spirit stones.
……
There are about 20 million people in Tianshui City. Except for a small number of cultivators, the rest are ordinary people. They can only survive in places with the protection of cultivators, otherwise they may become food for monsters.
These ordinary people provide cultivation talents for the major forces, and the major forces will provide them with protection. After all, no force will always be strong.
