"Hmm?" Xiatian looked at the waiter.
"Sir, the Shang Clan is overbearing and domineering, but there is nothing we can do about it. They are too rich. This time, many rich people have been attracted to the Shang Clan. But the Shang Clan's city is not a place you can casually enter. You have to wear clean and tidy clothes, and you have to wear branded goods before you can enter." The waiter advised.
"Mm!!" Xiatian nodded.
He then looked at the information the waiter had brought back.
After reading the information, Xiatian finally understood how powerful the Shang Clan was.
People who went to the Shang Clan.
No matter if you were a Jiuding expert or a mercenary, if you dared to offend the Shang Clan, you would be punished. There were even some who were chased out of the Shang Clan's territory and not allowed to sell anything to you.
In the ancient battlefield.
The Shang Clan represented wealth.
No one knew how much money the Shang Clan had.
But the entire Middle Realm gave them face because they had the ability to do so.
Normally, if you opened your doors to do business, you would never offend your customers. But the Shang Clan was different. The Shang Clan was not afraid of offending anyone because many of the things they sold were monopolized. Other than them, you could not buy them anywhere else. So if you wanted to feel superior, you did not have to go to the Shang Clan.
Because there, you would not be able to gain any face.
"That's really overbearing." Xiatian smiled. After reading the Shang Clan's introduction, he felt that the Shang Clan had the right to be proud.
But all this was easy to say.
Xiatian asked the waiter to buy a few sets of high quality clothes. The next morning, the two of them set off.
This time, Xiatian bought two mounts, which reduced their burden by quite a bit.
After riding for three days, Xiatian and the two of them arrived at the legendary Shang Clan.
The Shang Clan was a city. It did not look very big, but it was the most luxurious city Xiatian had ever seen. The entire city was equipped with countless resources.
There were many people going in and out.
"You need to pay ten high grade spirit stones to enter!!" The guard at the door said.
Xiatian did not waste any time and paid the money.
Twenty Upper Grade Spirit Stones were nothing to him.
After entering the city, Xiatian discovered that this was a trading city. All kinds of people were busy. Those merchants would pick up goods here and then go to other cities to sell them, earning the difference in price.
"Mister, isn't this place a little too prosperous? Just how much money can we earn in a single day?" Great Demon King of Chaos asked in shock.
"Mm. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to become the biggest business family in the entire Middle Realm." Xiatian said as he looked at the two sides of the road.
He found that the staff in these shops were not weak.
Obviously, they were all experts.
"Sirs, this must be your first time in the shopping center!!" A man Asked.
"How can you tell?" Xiatian Asked.
"That's because everyone else has a goal. They go straight to wherever they want to go, going back and forth in a hurry. Only the two of you are leisurely here," the man explained.
"Oh!!" Xiatian nodded.
"Sirs, if you need help, fifty Upper Grade Spirit Stones. I guarantee that you will be satisfied for a day." The man said.
It had to be said that it was really easy to make money here. That man just opened his mouth and asked for fifty Upper Grade Spirit Stones. One must know that even the staff in the Jiuding Gate could only earn a few hundred Upper Grade Spirit Stones a year.
However, those who could enter here were definitely not poor.
Therefore, those who entered here generally did not lack the fifty Upper Grade Spirit Stones.
"Take me to the place where you can buy the City Defense Weapons." Xiatian threw fifty Upper Grade Spirit Stones to the man.
When the man heard Xiatian's words, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Buying the City Defense Weapons, that meant that he was a big shot.
Because there was nothing cheap in the City Defense Weapons.
"Okay!!"
The man led the way.
"Mister, the City Defense Weapons are very expensive. Although there are people who come to buy them, the number varies. There are only a few hundred people a day. Unlike other shops, there are thousands, tens of thousands, or even more coming in and out every day." Since the man was a tour guide, he naturally had to say a word.
He had to explain the situation here to Xiatian.
"Mm!!" Xiatian nodded in acknowledgment.
"Our shopping center has been established for thousands of years. In these thousands of years of development, our shopping center has become the hub of all the businesses in the Middle Realm. It can be said that almost all the important things come out from our shopping center, or through transit. Moreover, the customers outside trust our shopping center very much and they will only recognize the things that come out from our shopping center." The man explained patiently.
"Have there ever been any fake goods that come out from here?" Xiatian Asked.
"There have been, but in the end, our shopping center compensated the buyer a thousand times the amount and destroyed the power that sent the goods. A power, everyone, not a single person was left alive. Since then, no one has ever dared to steal fake goods from us." The man said proudly.
Destroying a power, and not leaving a single person alive.
That was not something that an ordinary person could do.
Because even if a battle had started, there would definitely be people running away. But they had not left a single person alive. That proved that they must have used some kind of secret weapon.
"That's pretty impressive!!" Xiatian said in a calm tone, his face not showing any emotion. He understood that the other party was telling him not to play any tricks in the shopping center, because the shopping center had the ability to easily destroy a power.
But the other party had taken Xiatian's money, so he was being very tactful.
"You don't see any guards here right!!" The man said.
"Mm!!" Xiatian had just noticed that besides the people collecting money at the entrance, there seemed to be no guards in the city.
"It is very rare to encounter people who cause trouble here. Once a troublemaker appears, even if nothing is damaged, he will still have to pay money and pay a fine. And once two groups of people start fighting here, then whatever is damaged will have to be compensated ten times the amount. So, even if there is a conflict, they will usually endure it or go out of the city to settle it. After all, no one will go against money." The tour guide introduced the rules here with every sentence, and at the same time, reminded Xiatian of the consequences of causing trouble here.
"Oh!!" Xiatian replied.
"Also, the guards in our shopping center are the shop owners and staff of these shops. The shop owners who can open a shop here must be Jiuding. Otherwise, they are not qualified to open a shop here. And once someone causes trouble in the shopping center, all the experts in the shopping center will be mobilized." The tour guide said.
