From the female attendant, Duan Lingtian found out about the difference between the inner city and outer city.
Compared to the outer city, every inch of land in the inner city was worth an inch of gold.
"Young Master, are we going to the inner city?"
Kerr looked at Duan Lingtian and asked.
Duan Lingtian smiled. "There's no rush. There's still some time before dusk. Let's return to the inn first after we finish eating."
Kerr nodded obediently.
When they left the inn, Duan Lingtian had a plan in his heart. He would enter the inner city at dusk and find an inn to stay at, then buy a house to house his family in the Imperial City.
After all, he had to spend the next few years in Paladin Academy.
"Looks like I have to work hard to earn money again."
On the way back to the inn, Duan Lingtian thought in his heart.
Although he had 10 million silver on him now, he understood that this little bit of money was probably enough to buy a house in the inner city where every inch of land was worth an inch of gold.
Swallow Mountain County's County City, Yu Clan Estate.
Within the Audience Hall, a travel-worn Yu Clan disciple was reporting to the Patriarch, Yu Dian. "Patriarch, I'm afraid the Grand Elder, Second Elder, and Young Master Xiang have met with misfortune …"
"I'm afraid?"
Yu Dian's face sank and his voice was chilly. "This is the result of your investigation?"
The Yu Clan disciple took a deep breath and slowly said, "Patriarch, I searched all along the way and didn't notice the tracks of the Grand Elder and the others … But, I've been tracking them all the way to the vicinity of the Imperial City, and I heard that someone used a carriage pulled by three Ferghana Horses to travel, and that carriage had the Li Clan crest on it."
"The Li Clan's crest? Hmph! It ought to be that little bastard Duan Lingtian's carriage. Looks like I've underestimated him! "
Yu Dian's eyes went cold as he ordered. "You, go invite the three Supreme Elders over!"
"Yes."
The Yu Clan disciple received his orders and left. Only when he left the hall did he heave a sigh of relief. Earlier, the Patriarch's rage had pressured him to the point he was practically unable to breathe.
"Second Brother, Xiang 'er … Don't worry. Even if that Duan Lingtian goes to the Imperial City, I'll still make his blood splatter everywhere to comfort your souls in heaven!"
At this moment, Yu Dian, the Patriarch of the Yu Clan, was burning with rage.
He understood that it was impossible for the three of them to still be alive after not hearing from them for nearly half a year.
Outside the Imperial City, in an inn that was quiet amidst the chaos.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
… …
The sound of things being smashed came from the best room in the inn. Obviously, the guests inside were venting their anger.
In the room, the woman in red seemed to have gone mad. Almost everything in the guest room that could be smashed had been smashed by her!
"When have I, Tong Li, ever suffered such humiliation in my life? If he doesn't die, I swear I'm not human!"
The red-clothed woman was tired from the fall and sat down on the bed. Her eyes were crimson red, as if she was a bloodthirsty Asura that had crawled out from hell …
The old woman stood at the side and kept silent.
She knew that when the Young Miss got angry, not to mention her, even the County Governor would be powerless.
"Granny Wang, the inner city should be open soon. Let's go, I'm going to look for Cousin!"
Tong Li stood up and walked out angrily.
"Yes."
The old woman respectfully followed behind.
Rumble!
At dusk, along with the gate of the inner city slowly opening, the stream of people that had been waiting on the stone bridge at the gate, as well as the stream of people that had been waiting to leave the city, intertwined as they entered and exited.
As a horse carriage walked onto the stone bridge, although the stream of people on the stone bridge surged endlessly, they still moved to the sides.
Everyone looked at the horse carriage with reverence as it passed by.
A horse carriage pulled by three Ferghana horses, the people inside were surely wealthy and respectable, and weren't people they could afford to offend.
"This is the inner city? So many people. "
Within the carriage, Kerr glanced outside and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
Within the inner city, there was an endless stream of horse carriages, and what entered her eyes was a dense mass of people …
"When I saw so many people on the stone bridge earlier, I thought it would take half a day to squeeze in. I didn't expect it to be so smooth."
Li Fei's angelic face was filled with smiles, and her devilish figure lazily leaned against the carriage window.
"Of course! Don't underestimate the deterrent force of three Ferghana horses. "
Duan Lingtian smiled.
Even the County Governor's Estates of the eighteen counties under the Crimson Sky Kingdom might not have the courage to use three Ferghana horses to pull a horse carriage.
It wasn't that they couldn't afford so many Ferghana horses, but that they wouldn't waste them like this!
Ferghana horses were worth tens of thousands of gold, and very few people would be willing to let them pull a horse carriage.
When Duan Lingtian's horse carriage smoothly entered the inner city and found an inn to stay at.
Outside the gate of the inner city, a horse carriage that was similarly pulled by three horses walked onto the stone bridge, but it could only slowly walk on the stone bridge with the speed of an ant.
"Too slow!"
The red-clothed girl in the carriage had an extremely unsightly expression.
"Hey, hurry up!"
The red-clothed girl pulled open the carriage curtain and shouted at the coachman.
"Miss, I can't help it … There are so many people, and the carriage can't move at all."
The coachman had an aggrieved expression.
"Hmph!"
The red-clothed girl snorted coldly and walked out of the carriage. Her face sank as she looked at the surrounding people on both sides and in front of her.
These lowly commoners actually dare to block my path!
Slap!
The red-clothed girl raised her hand, and the black whip in her hand tore through the sky with a sound.
However, this sound was quickly covered by the surrounding clamor, and not many people were able to hear it …
"You lowly commoners, fuck off!"
The red-clothed girl swung the whip in her hand and roared with a stern voice.
Her voice entered into the ears of the group of people around the horse carriage.
These people revealed looks of disdain as they coldly glanced at the three ordinary yellow horses pulling the horse carriage, and mocked them without holding back.
"Do you really think her horse carriage is also pulled by Ferghana horses?"
"Yeah, sitting in such a lousy horse carriage, you really think you're somebody."
"If you have the ability, then go get three Ferghana horses to pull the carriage, just like the horse carriage in front. You don't have to say anything, and we'll automatically make way for you."
"Brother, how can you say that? Do you think everyone has the courage to get three Ferghana horses to pull the carriage? "
"That's true."
…
The mocking words entered into the red-clothed girl's ears, and it caused her expression to become even more unsightly.
Slap!
She swung the black whip in her hand, wanting to whip these people that mocked her …
"Miss!"
The old woman walked out of the carriage and grabbed the red-clothed girl's hand.
"Granny Wang, what are you doing? I want to teach this group of lowly commoners a lesson! "
The red-clothed girl's face sank.
"Miss, if you injure people in front of so many people, you'll surely become the target of everyone. Now, his majesty the Emperor is old, and the throne is being replaced … Could it be that you want the matter of you whipping commoners for no reason to become a bargaining chip for the other princes to attack the Fifth Prince? "
The old woman laughed bitterly as she reminded in a light voice.
The red-clothed girl took a deep breath and returned to the carriage with a gloomy expression. "This Miss can't take it anymore. These lowly commoners actually dared to talk about this Miss like this … If this Miss finds out who used three Ferghana horses to pull the carriage through the streets and caused this Miss to be ridiculed, this Miss won't forgive him!"
The red-clothed girl was precisely Tong Li, the daughter of the Fair Sun County's County Governor.
She was also the girl that Duan Lingtian taught a lesson in the restaurant.
But if Tong Li knew that the owner of the carriage pulled by three Ferghana horses was precisely the youth that slapped her in the restaurant not long ago, what expression would she have ….
In a quiet inn in the inner city.
"You two stay and chat with my mother. I'll go out with Xiong Quan to do something."
Duan Lingtian said to Li Fei and Kerr before leaving with Xiong Quan.
The inner city of the Imperial City had businesses that specialized in selling houses, and these businesses were directly under the Crimson Sky Kingdom's Imperial Family.
Now, Duan Lingtian brought Xiong Quan into a spacious store.
"Sir, may I know what kind of house you're looking for?"
Among the female attendants standing at the entrance of the store, the most beautiful one had a respectful expression as she welcomed Duan Lingtian into the hall. She was able to discern that the violet-clothed youth was the leader of the two people in front of her.
The hall was very simple. Besides a few counters, there was only a 'model' laid out in the middle of the hall.
These models were all models of houses, and they were all separated from each other.
"I didn't expect that in this world, there would be something similar to the building models on Earth from my previous life."
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and he felt a wave of familiarity.
"Sir, these are all houses that haven't been sold yet. Please take a look and see which one you like."
The female attendant pointed at the rows of house models and introduced them with a smile.
"Okay."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
Just when Duan Lingtian was about to carefully size up these houses, a young man around the age of nineteen walked into the store with an old man.
The young man had an arrogant expression, and he was obviously a rich playboy.
"Sir, may I ask if you want to buy a house?"
Another female attendant went up to greet them.
"Nonsense, if this young master didn't come here to buy a house, could it be that I'm here to see you? Let this young master see what kind of houses you have here. "
The young man's words were full of condescension, causing the female attendant's face to turn green and white. However, she didn't dare to say anything. A person who could afford a house in the inner city was not someone she could afford to offend.
Duan Lingtian frowned and glanced at the young man indifferently, but he didn't say anything.
He just looked at the house model in front of him.
"Hey, this young lady looks pretty good … Hey! It's you. This young master doesn't need her to entertain him. You entertain this young master. "
The young man walked to Duan Lingtian's side and looked at the female attendant who greeted Duan Lingtian. His lustful eyes seemed to be able to strip off all the clothes on the female attendant.
"Sorry, sir. I'm currently entertaining this customer, so I don't have time for the time being. "
The female attendant took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said in a low voice.
"What did you say?"
The young man glared and scolded. "Young lady, do you fucking know who this young master is? This young master is a member of the Jade Orchid County's Duan Clan … The Imperial City's Duan Clan is the main clan of our Duan Clan! Besides that, do you know the Imperial City's Duan Clan's direct descendant, Young Master Duan Lingxing? Let me tell you, that's this young master's cousin! "
The female attendant was frightened to the point her face went pale when she heard this.
Imperial City's Duan Clan?
That was one of the few great powers in the Crimson Sky Kingdom that was second only to the Imperial Family.
Duan Lingxing?
Duan Lingtian's mind was completely thrown into chaos by the young man, and a cold light flashed within his eyes as he looked at the young man.
Duan Lingxing's cousin?
"Kid, what are you looking at? Unconvinced? Let me tell you, I, Duan Rong, am not someone you can afford to offend! "
The young man had a face of disdain when he saw Duan Lingtian look over, and he spoke with a condescending tone.
