Although Zhang Feng and the female winged man did not get along very well, it was still somewhat beyond Zhang Feng's expectation that the other party would come out to remind him.
"You can't move without gold coins? That's interesting!"
I don’t know what kind of city this is that can say such arrogant words. Even Zhang Feng’s own Hongye City doesn’t dare to say so.
After all, in Hongye City, the rich and the common people have their own ways of playing.
Soon, Red Leaf Steam No. 1 arrived near the city of Moore. From the car, the whole picture of the city of Moore could be seen.
This is a city built at the foot of Mount More, which is much larger than Silver Pine City. It is already dark in Su Ri'an, but one can see that some areas in More City are brightly lit. This is completely different from Silver Pine City which is completely silent at night. It feels a bit like Red Leaf City.
Red Leaf Steam Car No. 1 circled around the area and found a basin-shaped terrain, which was just right for driving the car down. This time, Zhang Feng planned to enter the city in a low-key manner, so naturally he could not let Red Leaf Steam Car No. 1 attract onlookers.
Inside the magnificent hall, the young soldier guarding the gate bowed his head and reported respectfully.

Although it was snowing outside and it was night, there were still many carriages passing by on the roads of More City.
"Is this a siege weapon? A walking siege beam? I feel like our city gates can't bear the weight..."
…
The older soldiers gave him earnest advice.
The freckled young man had a look of disdain on his face. He had seen many people like him. Forget about coming to the First Hotel the day after tomorrow. It would be great if he could be alive the day after tomorrow! Bang bang bang~ The steam car slowly drove to the door of the hotel.
Although the older soldier was shocked, he did not forget his duty. He quickly took out the horn on his chest and blew it !
But when these soldiers saw the steam train below, they seemed to drop their jaws in shock.
Inside the car, Zhang Feng looked at the buildings outside and felt somewhat disappointed.
"merchant?"
He has been low-key enough, but he still gets treated like this.
Just as I arrived at the door of the hotel, I saw a middle-aged man being thrown out, along with a bag.
The older soldier asked loudly, holding his spear.
The positioning of this city is somewhat similar to that of his Hongye City. If you have money, you can enjoy it to your heart's content! However, in Zhang Feng's opinion, his own Hongye City is better. At least Hongye City will not have such snobbish employees.
"Oh, yes! I almost forgot that the arrival of powerful merchants should be reported to the City Lord's Mansion!"
Because everyone's strength is very good, Zhang Feng did not equip any extra soldiers or anything, as too many people would be a burden.
As long as I am not caught sleeping by my boss, everything will be fine. Is there anyone who dares to come to Moore City to cause trouble?
Now that he understood that the other party was a businessman and was going to enter More City at night, the older soldier immediately spoke loudly.
However, Zhang Feng was not here to fight. He stopped the steam carriage out of the range of the archers on the city wall. Then the door opened and a soldier dressed as a businessman walked out from the passenger seat.
Inside the car, Zhang Feng naturally saw the panic of the soldiers at the city gate, and also saw the soldiers on the city wall drawing their bows. He was speechless.
"Don't look at it anymore, go to the City Lord's Mansion and report the news!"
"I'm telling you, can you be more steady? It's not easy for you to get to this position, but you can't lose it just because of your instability. You know, there are a lot of people eyeing your position!"
The soldiers picked up their bows and arrows and aimed at the steam car below.
…
"Oh Steam Car, there happens to be an open space behind us, you can park there!"
"No, I mean... God!"
The young soldier pointed, he had no time to explain, or he didn't know how to explain.
However, when he arrived at the door of the hotel, Zhang Feng was stunned and felt that this city of Moore was still something special.
A mocking voice came from inside the door, and a young man with freckles on his face walked out of the hotel.
But this city lord is more rude and direct.
"It's called a steam carriage. Just think of it as a carriage without a horse."
Looking at this lump of iron, they were all a little surprised. Even the middle-aged man on the snow didn't care about the cold and looked at Zhang Feng curiously.
Zhang Feng naturally ignored them and left with a bang.
However, Zhang Feng was more euphemistic, or it would be more vivid to say "cutting meat with a blunt knife".
"Of course, we have room at the First Hotel! But our monthly room rate is one gold coin. You need to pay first before you can stay. What do you think?"
Since there are only eight people, they are definitely not here to attack the city.
"Um?"
Apart from the gold coin required to enter the city, this does not look like a wealthy city in any way.
"Haha, then come back the day after tomorrow. We'll be happy to welcome you."
"I want to know all the information about this thing in one day!"
He could imagine who could ride in such a luxurious vehicle. In their city of More, probably only the city lord could ride in it, right? No, he definitely could! After getting rid of the random thoughts in his mind, the young soldier saw the two people in the driver's seat and the co-pilot's seat.
"No." The older soldier shook his head and said, "Also, don't make a fuss. At this time, is there anyone who dares to come to our More City to cause trouble?"
Looking at the cold expression on Abei's face, Zhang Feng was a little surprised, but he did not refuse. After all, Abei was very strong, and having one more person would mean a sense of security.
The soldier in the passenger seat rolled down the window and explained.
However, when they saw this iron steam engine, all the carriages stopped at the same time.
From this we can see that More City is indeed much more prosperous than Silver Pine City.
Although the voice was tempting, the soldier did not dare to look up.
"Um?"
The two soldiers were hunched over. Although they were wearing thick clothes, the cold wind still felt like a knife on their faces. They turned sideways with their faces facing inward, which was relatively more comfortable.
"Come here slowly!"
The soldiers also looked around. Although visibility was very low in the wind and snow, they could still see something nearby. Apart from this strange thing, there were no other traces of humans hiding.
"There are crystals this big? And they are black! And using crystals for windows, is that so extravagant?"
The hotel is a four-story building. It’s just a four-story building, which is nothing special. But what surprised Zhang Feng was that this hotel was exactly the same as a castle.
"No, look there! Behind you!"
One of the young soldiers suddenly spoke up.
If there wasn't a sign that read "More's First Hotel" hanging on it, Zhang Feng would have really thought it was the city lord's mansion.
They all want to make money from businessmen. After all, when the number of civilians has not reached a certain number, more money can be made from businessmen.
It can be seen from the city entry fee that the two people have somewhat similar ideas.
“…That’s how it is.”
The sound of the horn was not loud, but it was loud enough for the soldiers on the city wall to hear.
Fortunately, the city gate was large enough to accommodate the steam car.
Bang bang bang, the steam car arrived at the gate at a leisurely pace.
“There’s someone inside!”
The hotel is so exaggerated that Zhang Feng is looking forward to what the City Lord’s Mansion will look like.
After paying the money, we went through a very simple registration process to enter the city, which was to write down how many people there were and their names. This was the registration process to enter the city, and the caravan registration was done in the city.
The gold coins have been paid and you can register with the caravan at any time, so there is no rush.
…
"Tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow, I can definitely pay the room fee!"
The young soldier was quick-witted and left quickly.
This time it was the soldier in the co-pilot's seat who was surprised. What kind of city is this? It actually takes a gold coin to enter the city! Even Zhang Feng in the car was shocked. One gold coin to enter the city was a bit exaggerated. He finally understood what the Wing Clan woman meant when she said that it was difficult to move in More City without gold coins. If you can't even enter, it's naturally difficult to move.
The freckled young man was slightly startled when he saw someone coming out of the iron lump, but after hearing what the other party said, he subconsciously smiled ingratiatingly.
This young man is quite to his liking, and he doesn't want to replace him with a colleague he doesn't get along with.
The older soldier was stunned. Could something really have happened? He looked back with some confusion and saw a black iron-like object emitting white smoke in the wind and snow, coming towards them.
The sound it made caught the attention of both men.
"It's like this. The caravan needs to register in our city of More before it can do business. This gold coin includes the registration fee, and we will also provide you with some necessary information. Of course, if you don't plan to do business, you don't have to pay this money. You only need one silver coin to stay in More for seven days."
"Oh? A moving lump of iron? A merchant from the north? Interesting!"
Is this a carriage? But there are no horses! "Don't be nervous, we are merchants from the north, not here to fight!"
Zhang Feng asked the driver to find a place to stay first.
Zhang Feng looked at the freckled young man who was nodding and bowing, thinking about something.
As for Zhang Feng who was riding behind, they naturally couldn't see him because Zhang Feng had put film on the glass and also had sunshades, so it was very private.
There were not many people going to Moore City this time, so Zhang Feng only prepared a small steam car.
"This... is actually crystal!"
Bang, bang, bang~ The steam engine was lit, white steam came out, and the steam engine made a clanging sound. Several people got on the car and drove towards the city of More.
Since they chose to keep a low profile, Zhang Feng and others naturally used fake names. He didn't even leave the house, and the soldiers guarding the city didn't check him carefully. Anyway, the gold coins had already been paid, so they just had to go through the motions.
"If you can't pay the room fee, you are not eligible to stay in our First Hotel. Get out!"
The people who went included Zhang Feng, the three animal-eared girls, Abei, Malo, a driver, and a co-pilot who ran errands.
After he left, the rich people in the carriages issued orders one after another in an instant.
After parking the car, Zhang Feng unexpectedly saw Abei.
More City, City Lord's Mansion.
"Go tell them tomorrow that I want that steam car."
The soldiers who were dozing off on the city wall were startled and picked up their weapons in panic.
Although this explanation was a bit strange, they still roughly understood what it was.
"How many of you are there?"
"Oh my god! What the hell is this!"
Merchant is the most popular profession in More City.
"There seems to be someone in there! How is it moving without a horse?"
One silver coin stays for seven days, which is not cheap, but not expensive either. At least it is much better than one gold coin.
"I want to buy it, no matter how much gold coins it costs, it's mine..."
Huge wheels, chimneys emitting white smoke, all-black body, and those pieces of glass.
The older soldier also relaxed a little, and he said:
Hearing the words of the Red Leaf City soldiers, both the soldiers on the city wall and those under the city wall breathed a sigh of relief.
The older soldier at the city gate was a little surprised, but judging by his attire, he was indeed a businessman.
"A steam car, if you don't understand, is simply a carriage without a horse."
"Didn't we just patrol yesterday? The next patrol will be ten days later!"
"What is this?"
"Haha, please come in, please come in! As for this..."
"There are only eight of us!"
People in the carriages lifted the curtains and looked at the steam engine in surprise.
"Everyone, I hope you can have a great time in Moore City!"
As the young soldier looked up at the steam car rattling away, the older soldier kicked him.
"We are merchants from the north. Do you have any rooms available?"
The young soldier let out a cry of surprise before he could finish his words.
"Oh my god, what is this?"
"Are there any adults here on patrol?"
This man from More City made him a little disappointed. The houses here were similar to those in Silver Pine City, with only one storey or two storeys high. They were very simple. From the faces of the civilians who heard the noise and came out to observe, Zhang Feng saw that they were pale and muscular, and did not look very wealthy.
A magnetic female voice sounded from above.
"You want to protect me?"
"There is something unknown...under the city wall!"
“It looks like it’s made of iron?”
The west gate of More City.
Hearing the clanging sounds and looking at the thick white smoke, both of them were shocked.
"good."
But when leaving, he would look at the steam car from time to time.
The soldier was asked to hand over a gold coin, and the older soldier accepted it with a smile on his face.
The older soldier smiled at the soldier and waved open the gate.
…
Through this hotel, he seemed to understand the city.
To avoid trouble, the businessman dressed as a soldier got off the bus.
"no problem."
"Did you hear any noise?"
Zhang Feng was a little surprised. The mayor of the city of More was very smart.
The man who was thrown out still refused to give up.
“Although I don’t understand it, it looks so amazing!”
The young soldier thought silently in his heart, and this strange lump of iron actually gave him a special sense of beauty, it was really strange!
Because there were a bunch of big guys sitting in the car, the soldiers were not afraid at all.
The soldier spoke loudly.
The older soldier boldly asked: "What are these things?"
Seeing someone coming out, the soldiers of More City immediately became nervous. At the same time, they were also very curious. How could this strange thing actually hold a person in its stomach!
The soldiers breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that something happened outside.
Could it be that the Winged Tribe woman was lying? How could such a city cost so much?
"Ahem, you're an outsider. Let me tell you about the rules of More City. If a caravan wants to enter the city, it needs to pay a gold coin as an entry fee!"
"Um."
This was a very important piece of information, and the older soldier took note of it.
It is even much bigger than the castle in his Red Leaf City!
The soldiers looked at the empty city wall. Apart from them, there was no Lord Knight. The soldiers looked at each other and were about to swear when some of them saw thick white smoke.
There are only eight people.
After all, it would be bad to be regarded as an enemy.
The heat in the car surged out, making the two soldiers envious and squinting their eyes comfortably. The car was so warm! "A carriage without horses?"
The two soldiers at the door finally had the opportunity to take a closer look at the steam train in its entirety.
Seeing the glass on the car, the older soldier naturally mistook it for crystal, which made his eyes widen.
Although they had not received any news that someone was going to attack the city, they were prepared for the worst. If they were really attacked and they failed to defend in time, they would not be able to get past their superiors! "Alert!"
“They are truly wealthy people!”
"A gold coin!"
This gold coin is not easy to accept. As everyone knows, businessmen are misers. Usually he needs to spend a lot of time and effort to explain things clearly before the merchant will reluctantly take out a gold coin. No one would be as straightforward as Zhang Feng.
It’s just a gold coin, so Zhang Feng naturally wouldn’t be reluctant to part with it.
"Yes! Then... may I ask, Lord City Lord, what price should I quote?"
"Price? Are you worried that I can't afford it?"
"I dare not! Lord City Lord, I..."
"Okay, get out of here!"
"……yes!"
