"Your total spending is 30.8 taels of silver. Please pay."
The cash register made a sound, which startled the shoppers.
Nowadays, the cash registers in supermarkets have been modified by scientific research leaders. They can automatically read out prices by just scanning the barcode. This is also the reason why Tang Qingxi dares to hire people.
Otherwise, we would have to hire people from the ancient art world to teach Arabic numerals. Who knows how long it would take these basically uneducated people to teach?
Long Zuling is the leader of the martial arts world. He is obviously a wealthy man and must have a lot of money. Tang Qingxi took him directly to the 6th floor.
Pointing to an off-road vehicle, he said, "This is called an off-road vehicle. It can travel 100,000 kilometers. When not in use, just keep it in a cool place. It doesn't need to be fed with grass or anything like that. I wonder if Alliance Leader Long is interested?"
Looking at the strange iron box before him, which was much larger than a carriage, Long Zuling asked in disbelief, "It can move on its own? It doesn't need a horse to pull it."
"Can."
"That………"
It was difficult to explain, so Tang Qingxi directly invited Long Zuling to get in the car and experience it.
After helping Long Zuling open the car door and sit in the passenger seat, Tang Qingxi also opened the door and got in, then drove the SUV from the elevator to the garage and hit the road.
The roads in the ancient world were not very smooth, even the official roads. The off-road vehicles sped along, raising yellow dust.
Long Zuling, sitting in the car, was very excited. "How come this SUV is so fast and not so bumpy?"
Tang Qingxi stopped the car with a sudden brake and asked Long Zuling: "How is it?"
"I'll buy it! How much silver does it cost?" With this off-road vehicle, a lot of travel time can be saved.
This leader of the martial arts world sounds quite impressive, but he spends at least half of his time every year on the road mediating disputes everywhere. Long Zuling is almost exhausted from riding a horse.
"100,000 taels of silver. We only accept cash, no notes."
"Okay, I'll go exchange it for silver. Miss Tang, you must keep this SUV for me."
"no problem."
When they arrived, Long Zuling got out of the car and said he was going to exchange silver. Tang Qingxi drove here alone.
When he arrived at the supermarket, Tang Qingxi saw that there were already people learning to ride motorcycles and bicycles at the entrance of the supermarket.
Bicycles are relatively cheap, with an order price of 200-1000 taels of silver. Perhaps after a while these ancient people will be able to imitate them. A motorcycle starts at 10,000 taels of silver.
If we want to complete this transaction, we will rely on these things.
"Have these people paid?" Tang Qingxi asked Zhao Siqi who was standing at the entrance of the supermarket.
"No, but several people took their men and sent people to get the silver."
That's fine. Tang Qingxi thought that some expert came out to hunt down people and was carrying several kilograms of silver.
"Let's go in and ask those two what's going on."
After entering the supermarket, An Yuqing and the Holy Maiden of Miaojiang sat on the sofa somewhat stiffly, with Sun Jiaojiao beside them.
Seeing Tang Qingxi come in, he quickly stood up and saluted: "Thank you, Miss Tang, for saving us."
It seemed that Sun Jiaojiao had already introduced herself to the two men. Tang Qingxi helped them up and said politely, "No, it's just a courtesy."
"I still have to thank Miss Tang. If it weren't for her, we would have died with a bad reputation and would have brought trouble to our sect."
"Yes, yes! The people of the Central Plains have always looked down on us Miao people. If I die with the stigma of being a witch, how will we Miao witches survive in the future?"
The Miao Saint said with a look of fear on her face. Although her face was still a little pale, her facial features were lively and her eyes sparkled when she spoke. Tang Qingxi liked this kind of girl.
"If I say no, then I won't. Just tell me about the stories of the underworld as a way of thanking me."
"Okay! Whatever you want to hear, I'll tell you everything I know."
"What's your name? What dynasty is it now? Who is the emperor? When did you ascend the throne?"
After being bombarded with this series of questions, the Miaojiang Saint blinked and said, "My name is Jin Yu, um..."
Jin Yu had no idea who the emperor was. Miaojiang had been a land of dense forests and grasses since ancient times, with countless poisonous insects. People from the Central Plains simply did not dare to enter Miaojiang. Anyone who came to Miaojiang to serve as an official was basically exiled. The Xiao family, which was wiped out, was the only one who dared to do business with Miaojiang.
Once the gate of Miaojiang is closed, it becomes a small dynasty. The people who manage the entire Miaojiang are the elders of each village. They ignore the officials sent by the court and don’t care who is the emperor. Even if there is a change of dynasty, it will not have much impact on Miaojiang.
It was An Yuqing who told Jin Yu everything about the Central Plains.
"I'll answer the rest," An Yuqing took over the topic and began to answer after looking at the situation.
"This is outside the Jiangnan Guangling City of the Great Qi Dynasty...
Through questions and answers, I gained a basic understanding of this ancient world, a world where feudal dynasties and the underworld coexisted.
The Great Qi Dynasty has now lasted for 100 years. The current emperor ascended the throne 20 years ago and is considered a holy emperor.
The imperial court had a department specifically for managing the people in the martial arts world. This department was called Le'an Hall, but when people in the martial arts world had trouble, they would usually look for the leader of the martial arts world.
There are various forms of sects, families, and villas in the martial arts world.
Poor families would either send their children to school or to martial arts training if they had a little extra money, so that their children could make a living. Being a farmer was the most difficult.
Those with low kung fu skills are no more than thugs, while those with high kung fu skills can easily split mountains and rocks.
However, most people will only be third-rate gangsters throughout their lives. Only the most powerful gangsters can split mountains and rocks.
There are also mysterious witchcraft, medical techniques, and mechanical techniques... They are so exciting that the eyes of those who listened to them sparkled.
The supermarket was located outside Guangling City in the south of the Yangtze River. The Lord of Guangling City was the younger brother of a nobleman in the palace. This prosperous Guangling City was specially requested by the nobleman for his younger brother.
This Lord of the Mansion is timid and doesn't dare to extort money, so he has a good reputation in this area and I think he will not hinder the operation of the supermarket.
After asking the questions, Tang Qingxi asked the two people what their next plans were.
Upon hearing this, Jin Yu and An Yuqing fell silent.
