Walking on the bluestone paved street, listening to the various shouts of the people around him, Rui felt as if he had traveled through time and space, and had arrived at the Qin Shi Huang era, a place that people yearned for!
An unfamiliar aura, unfamiliar buildings, unfamiliar clothing, unfamiliar clothing, unfamiliar words, unfamiliar everything!
A familiar aura, familiar buildings, familiar clothing, familiar clothing, familiar words, familiar everything!
Such strange and different feelings, such an amazing experience, made Rui feel very surprised!
However, Chu Rui knew very well that this was just a difference in perception between him as Chu Rui and him who had received the memories of his previous life's First Emperor!
To Chu Rui, everything here was very unfamiliar! However, to the First Emperor's memories, this place was too familiar. After all, everything here belonged to the era he ruled!
The arrival of strangers was nothing special to the others. This was because this was the Qin Capital, the capital of the Great Qin Empire, one of the most prosperous places in the Tomb of the Gods Realm. Every day, countless strangers came here. To these commoners who were hawking their wares on the streets, this was not something they should be concerned about. Even though this place was different from the Mortal World and did not have to worry about daily necessities, they had to worry about something even crueler, and that was life.
That's right, here, strength was life. Without strength, in this place where there were no laws, one would become the prey of others. In comparison, the Great Qin Empire was better. After becoming a member of the Great Qin Empire, one would receive corresponding protection. However, this protection did not come for no reason. Living under the protection of others, one had to pay a price. The most common was paying taxes. Therefore, they were also forced to make a living. It was just that compared to the Mortal World, this aspect of living was different.
Chu Rui looked like a young man who had just come out of the woodwork. He did not have any scheming thoughts and was like a blank piece of paper. Such a tender little lamb was naturally the favorite target of those unscrupulous merchants.
However, along the way, Chu Rui was like a true rookie who did not know the ways of the world. He basically bought all the goods of those who came up to sell. These things might not be worth much in their eyes, or even worthless. However, to Chu Rui, these things were difficult to buy in the Mortal World. They were things that could cause a bloody storm. If possible, Chu Rui really wanted to buy all of them. Unfortunately, he did not have enough money.
As a mature small world, the Tomb of the Gods Realm naturally had its own currency. The currency in circulation here was not gold coins, but something called soul coins. Chu Rui did not have any of these things. However, he did have gold coins. The heaven-defying system allowed Chu Rui could still purchase. However, here was such a scam. He had to pay ten thousand times the price. In other words, he would need 10,000 gold coins to buy a steamed bun that cost 1 gold coin in the past. This was f * cking scam to the extreme.
However, Chu Rui did not complain at all about this. Instead, he was very grateful. This was because what he had sacrificed and what he had gained was simply not proportionate. What was a mere billion gold coins to him? Even though he was able to buy a lot of things under the ten thousand times scam ratio, but the rarer something is, the more valuable it is. Adding on the many resources in the Cosmos Bowl, if he were to trade with the rich, Rui would definitely become rich overnight. Before coming to the Qin Capital, in addition to the traveling expenses given to him by Tianyun, he gave some food to Little Yun 'er, the princess of the Pangu Clan, in exchange for a lot of soul coins.
As the saying went, treasures were among the people. Those who opened shops were just a little more systematic and formal. However, the things they sold were not necessarily precious. Those who did not have the money to open shops but were lucky enough to find good treasures in the mountains or treasures left by their ancestors were all possible.
Along the way, Chu Rui really did exchange for a lot of good things. For example, ten-thousand-year-old snow ginseng and ten-thousand-year-old snow lotus. In the end, he did not accept them anymore. These things could be eaten like carrots. Why would he still want them?
A fool like him who accepted everything along the way naturally attracted a lot of attention. Those spies who were hiding in various places and using various professions to hide their identities naturally paid attention to him first. With Chu Rui's perception, he naturally knew his current situation. However, he did not move at all. He did not even show any expression. Those spies who had been hiding for god knows how many years, or perhaps they were used to their current professions, did not know that their perfect disguise had been seen through long ago.
After spending all the soul coins on him, he obtained no less than thirty Hidden Profession Scrolls. Each of them was very powerful and belonged to the ancient times. They were all extinct professions. There were many natural treasures, many secret techniques, and skill books. However, most of them were incomplete. Other than that, there was also a treasure map. If Chu Rui did not have the Sky Eye and the Eye of Truth, he would not have been able to obtain such a great harvest. Those who sold these to him did not know that they had sold the real treasures. Each of them thought that they had sold worthless trash at such a price that they did not even dare to dream of in the past. They were feeling complacent.
Seeing that their potential customer did not have any soul coins, a group of people who came after hearing the news shook their heads in disappointment and left. There were also some who did not give up and continued to promote the treasures in their hands. However, Chu Rui was a contented person. He originally came here to do something very important. What was happening now was just seasoning. Life needed seasoning. However, people still had to live a normal life after all. They should not live a different kind of life that was dominated by seasoning all the time.
He did not even activate the Sky Eye and the Eye of Truth. This was because Chu Rui knew very well that if he really saw the treasures hidden in those "trash", he might be tempted. Then, he could not help but want to own them. This would delay his business. Instead of feeling conflicted when he saw them, it was better not to know.
After pushing away the crowd's encirclement, Chu Rui quickly walked towards the center of the Qin Capital. The Qin Palace was located in the center of the Qin Capital of the Great Qin Empire.
"Stop right there. Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Qin Palace. How should you be punished?"
As the residence of the Emperor of the Great Qin Empire, it was the heart and brain of the Great Qin Empire. Naturally, it was heavily guarded. Outside the Qin Palace, there were four groups of fully armored soldiers guarding the place. When they saw Chu Rui, who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth, walking straight towards them, they were instantly enraged. One after another, they pulled out the long swords at their waists and roared.
