When entering the city, Wang Chen ran into trouble.
Taiwu City's city gate is extremely tall and thick, and a small door is opened under the gate for merchants and travelers to enter and exit.
There are heavily armed warriors guarding both inside and outside the city gate, checking passers-by.
There is no fee to enter the city, but outsiders like Wang Chen are subject to very strict inspections.
"Open your package."
A warrior pointed expressionlessly at the baggage Wang Chen was carrying.
Wang Chen hesitated for a moment, then took off his package and opened it, and White Fox's head hidden inside immediately emerged.
Clang!
The city guard warrior was startled and subconsciously pulled out the long sword at his waist.
"What's the matter?"
The few warriors nearby reacted quickly and immediately gathered around, staring at Wang Chen with eager eyes.
Wang Chen calmly touched the little fox's head and said, "Don't panic, everyone. This is my pet White Fox. I have raised it since I was a child."
Bai Hu made a cooperative "whoosh" sound a few times and pressed his face tightly against Wang Chen's palm.
A cute and harmless look.
The warriors felt relieved and put away their weapons.
The martial artist responsible for inspecting Wang Chen frowned and said, "There are rules in Taiwu City. Private pets must be registered. Otherwise, they will be captured and killed as wild animals. I think it is your first time to let it go, but you must go to Bureau of Civil Affairs to apply."
Wang Chen nodded. "I understand."
The warrior waved his hand. "Go in."
Wang Chen: "Thank you."
What Wang Chen didn't expect was that as soon as he stepped through the wide doorway and had not taken a few steps into the city, someone was chasing him from behind. "Your Majesty, please stay!"
Wang Chen stopped in confusion. "What's the matter?"
The other party was a gentle middle-aged man. He said with a smile, "The White Fox you raised is very interesting. My master was very happy to see it just now. I wonder if you are willing to part with it?"
I actually want to buy White Fox!
Wang Chen shook his head and said, "I can't let go of what I love. I'm sorry."
After saying that, he was about to leave, but was stopped by the other party again. "Sir, the price is negotiable. How about three thousand Jade Coins?"
The middle-aged man held up three fingers without giving up, with an expression like "You've made a lot of money."
There was a soft cry all around, and many people looked at Wang Chen with envy in their eyes.
Just now, Wang Chen was seen by many people because of White Fox's negotiation with the city guard warriors. No one expected that someone would actually pay such a high price of three thousand Jade Coins to buy a pet beast.
Wang Chen was impatient. "I won't sell it!"
What he hates the most is guys who keep pestering like this.
The middle-aged man was humiliated in public, and his face immediately sank in displeasure. "Your Excellency, you know..."
As a result, before he finished speaking, Wang Chen's figure had disappeared from his eyes.
The middle-aged man rubbed his eyes in disbelief, then looked around to no avail, and finally returned to a luxury carriage parked on the roadside in despair.
"Master."
He reported tremblingly, "The man refused to sell it and has now run away."
"What a waste!"
A shrill voice came from the carriage. "This White Fox looks very spiritual. Miss Shangguan will definitely like it. No matter what method I use, I must find him, otherwise..."
"Come see me again with your head in hand!"
The middle-aged man lowered his head. "Yes!"
At this moment, Wang Chen, I wonder if someone actually regards Hu Jiaojiao as a must-have. He is following the bustling crowd and walking on the main road of this city.
Taiwu City is the largest city in the Mist Mountain Realm. Not only is it the largest city, it also has the largest population.
It is said that millions of people live within and outside the city within a radius of hundreds of miles!
Wang Chen I had only heard of the reputation of Great Martial before, but today I can really appreciate its prosperity and prosperity.
And the people here, whether they are business travelers, city residents, farmers, or waiters and maids who stand in front of shops and greet customers, all are full of energy and energy.
The ratio of Martial Artist is extremely high.
Along the way, Wang Chen sensed several Houtian experts!
In other cities, Houtian expert is the top character after the city lord, but in Taiwu City it is very ordinary.
Old Yao told Wang Chen that those extraordinary Dao attainment monks rarely settled in the city. Most of them cultivated cave abode deep in Taiwu Mountain, and a few established sects.
Different from Red Cliff City where the power structure is quite simple, the pattern in Taiwu City is very complex. Many forces including government offices, sects, Lineage, and martial arts schools are involved in each other, and the entanglements between them are very deep.
But Wang Chen did not come to conquer this city. Once Mysterious Fox Token is found, he and Hu Jiaojiao will definitely leave, so they don't care much about these things.
For Wang Chen, the most important thing right now is to find a place to stay.
This matter is quite simple, because the business in Taiwu City is extremely developed, and there are many dental intermediaries. Wang Chen found one to inquire, and soon rented a nice house in the east area of the city.
This house is not large in area, but it also has a front yard, a main room, a side room, a kitchen, etc. Although it is small, it is fully equipped with all the necessary furniture and furnishings.
But the rent is staggeringly high, more than ten times that of a similar house in Red Cliff City!
But Wang Chen didn't care about this little money. He immediately signed a deed with the landlord and paid the rent for one year at a time.
When leaving Red Cliff City, Wang Chen carried a lot of Purple Gold Coins with him.
If there is no storage equipment, Old Yao's secret vault cannot be taken away. Otherwise, let alone renting a house, it is easy to buy a house larger than this.
Wang Chen will not be able to take these coins back with him when he returns to the Haotian Realm in the future, so naturally he won't feel any pain at all when spending them.
Seeing Wang Chen Make a Move's wealth, Yaren felt happy and asked, "Dear guest, do you need any servants in the house? I can help you get some capable maids."
"No need."
Wang Chen threw a Purple Gold Coins to the opponent. "This is for you."
After sending Yaren away, Wang Chen closed the door and walked around again looking inside and outside.
It's really settled.
Old Yao suddenly said, "Boy, there is a secret vault of mine in this city. Do you want to go and take a look?"
He emphasized specifically. "The biggest!"
Wang Chen immediately became interested. "Is there any Pills who can help Jiaojiao improve his rank?"
Old Yao: "Pills doesn't have it, but there must be medicinal materials!"
That's good!
Wang Chen immediately made the decision. "Let's go take a look tomorrow."
The next moment, White Fox, who followed Wang Chen around, jumped into his arms and rubbed his head affectionately.
Wang Chen stroked the fox's tail gently, thinking in his mind that Mysterious Fox Token didn't know whose hands it fell into, and when it would be possible for the little fox in his arms to feel it again.
