After Cheating, I Became the Strongest Beast Master Chapter 295

Chapter 295 I can't let you go astray

 “It's really you.” Han Yuning was a little surprised.

"How did the instructor know that I'm here? I originally wanted to find a chance to visit you, but you came first, instructor." Chen Xing wiped the dust on the stone bench, and then asked Han Yuning to sit down, "I just came here. It's not time to clean up, don't feel bad.”

"Someone told me." Han Yuning thought of something and quickly reminded Chen Xing, "Maybe someone is eyeing you."

 Chen Xing said thoughtfully, "It doesn't matter."

Han Yuning said: "Well, let me remind you, the person who notified me was a beast master in the army. I have met him but I am not very familiar with him."

Han Yuning sighed with emotion, "I thought you would come, but I didn't expect you to come so quickly."

Meeting a familiar person in a foreign land and a mentor who had helped them a lot, Chen Xing and Han Yuning chatted happily for a long time.

 Chen Xing mainly talked about interesting things about the school, while Han Yuning talked about the mercenary group here.

Han Yuning couldn't tell some confidential information, so she picked some suitable content and told it to Chen Xing.

“I thought about many scenarios before the war started. I originally thought it would be a hard battle, but Jiuchi City is even more ruined than we imagined.”

“The city of Jiuchi used to be known as the Little Overlord of the Northwest, but now there are only three words left: Little Overlord.”

"Really?" Chen Xing was a little surprised. The intelligence he saw before described Jiuchi City as a powerful enemy.

"Really, through the recent battles, I understand a truth. If there is no external threat to any powerful force, the biggest threat will come from the inside." Han Yuning looked complicated, "I am very fortunate that Daxia now still has external threats. Our powerful opponents remind us at all times.”

“It was only through the capture of the beast masters of Jiu Chi City that I learned the truth. The military expenditures of the Jiu Chi City defense army were actually less than a quarter of what the low-level beast masters spent on them,” Han Yuning said.

 “Less than a quarter?” Chen Xing's eyelids twitched.

This is the army. Since ancient times, countless emperors have proved one thing with their own heads. You can rely on anyone's money, but you can't rely on the soldiers' pay.

The Jiu Chi City's ability to avoid collapse only shows that the power of top beast masters can intimidate those below.

"Well, and the rules of Jiuchi City are very strict. Residents of Jiuchi City must join the city guard and serve in the military for five years after they reach adulthood. If you don't want to serve in the military, you have to pay a large fine. I heard There is a saying in Jiuchi City that good men do not join the army, and only beast masters from poor families join the city guard. "

 Chen Xing suddenly understood, now he could understand why Jiuchi City was not strong enough.

 The quality of the soldiers is not good, and the military expenditure is low. There is no money to buy resources. How can the strength of the beast control be improved.

Moreover, how can such a small amount of money make the city guards of Jiuchi City loyal? To put it in a clichéd way, what kind of life can be sold for such a small amount of money?

"But I'm only talking about the middle and lower-level beast masters. The upper-level beast masters in Jiuchi City are so rich that a considerable part of their military expenses have been embezzled and embezzled by them. The strength of their upper-level beast masters is not weak, and many of them are It is a high-level super-level, but it can only fight with the wind, and it is difficult to make those high-level super-levels fight hard. "

Han Yuning told Chen Xing a lot of information on the battlefield that was very helpful.

 Han Yuning finally left, and Chen Xing sent her to the gate.

 Subsequently, Chen Xing called Zhao Guangming over.

“Old Zhao, you heard what City Master Gu said yesterday. What do you think is the appropriate salary for us to recruit retired veterans?”

This problem is difficult for Zhao Guangming, and the intelligence did not mention this.

“I think we can look at the prices in Stone City first and then decide.” Zhao Guangming made a pertinent suggestion.

If the price is too low, on the one hand, it will be difficult for the city lord's mansion to respond, and on the other hand, it may not be easy to recruit people.

 But if the price is too high, they have limited funds.

 At present, all funds allocated from above are used, and every money must go somewhere.

 Chen Xing nodded. Han Yuning's words just now reminded him that they were not from Stone City, nor were they beast masters from the Burning Sky Territory.

 If you want to recruit local people to deal with local people, you must have a suitable price.

 Otherwise, why should others sacrifice their lives for themselves and others? Isn't it all for money?

 The two of them came to the street. It was already getting late and the city was not so hot anymore.

 There are more shops opened in the city than before.

 Many of these stores have a monster head hanging outside, indicating that the store purchases monster materials.

  Other types of shops are available in the city, such as animal control shops, monster material processing shops, hotels, taverns, custom shops, and hot spring reception centers.

“It feels different from Denglong City. There is a sense of freedom to grow wantonly here.” Zhao Guangming was dazzled.

“Why do you act like it's your first time in a foreign land?” Chen Xing felt strange.

"How could this be my first time?" Zhao Guangming said quickly, "I have been to foreign lands several times before, but this is my first time in Stone City."

 Several times.

 It's true, the second-in-command in the team has almost as much experience as myself.

It is estimated that Ning Yi and Zhou San in the team have been to foreign lands very rarely. When Chen Xing took the teleportation array for the first time, he noticed that the two of them were fainting from "teleportation".

However, although they were all a group of chicks, Chen Xing was not too panicked.

 It's not a big problem!

 The number of visits to foreign lands means nothing.

 Stay a few more days and you'll get familiar with it.

 “Where should we ask?”

 “There's no rush.” Chen Xing replied.

Zhao Guangming wanted to say something else. When Chen Xing walked to the front, he quickly caught up with him.

I walked to a small stall on the side of the road. Next to the stall, a three-meter-long red sand pig was blowing a fire beam.

The fire beam passes through the hole on the side of the stall, and the meat naan on it is cooked.

 The old man behind the stall skillfully wrapped the meat bag in clean leaves, tied it with a rattan, and handed it to another customer in front of the stall.

 “Old man, how much is it?” Chen Xing communicated with him in the lingua franca of a foreign country.

“Six Spirit Irons.” The old man paused for a moment on Chen Xing's dark pupils, then stretched out his hand and made a gesture.

 Chen Xing said: "Come on two."

The old man lowered his head, took out the cold meat bag from the bamboo basket next to him, and then held the meat bag in one hand.

The Yansha Pig standing behind the old man opened his mouth, and a small flame passed through the hole on the side and burned just under the meat sac.

The old man turned the meat bag skillfully, and soon, the meat bag in his hand exuded a faint fragrance.

 “Eat it now or take it away?” the old man asked.

“Let's eat here.” Chen Xing saw a few stones next to the stall, walked over and sat down directly.

 Chen Xing and Zhao Guangming were sitting on the stone next to the stall, each holding a meat bag in their hands.

Zhao Guangming seemed to like the taste and enjoyed eating it. Chen Xingze chewed slowly while communicating with the old man.

“Old man, your cake is very delicious. Is it a local specialty?”

 “No.” The old man shook his head.

 There are no guests at the moment, and the old man doesn't seem to mind chatting with Chen Xing.

The two of them were chatting casually.

“You have a lot of delicious food in Daxia. Many people from Daxia come to do business in the city, and the restaurants they open are delicious.”

"Thanks."

 “My business has been robbed a lot.”

“.” Chen Xing was stunned and didn't know how to reply.

Seeing the embarrassment on Chen Xing's face, the old man smiled freely and said: "The cakes I make have an average taste. Others don't like to eat them normally. I myself often go to the restaurants opened by you Daxia people to eat."

 Seeing that the old man was easier to talk to, Chen Xing asked a question that was deep in his heart, "Don't you local people exclude people from Daxia?"

 “Why should we reject it?” The old man was a little surprised.

 “A war broke out between the Daxia Territory and the Burning Sky Territory.”

 Chen Xing believed that this old man would know that the war between Daxia and the Burning Sky Territory had been going on for hundreds of years. Although it was intermittent, a beast master with a beast master ability level of 84 would definitely know about it.

"Oh, that's the matter of Burning Sky Giant City and has nothing to do with our Stone City." The old man shook his head and saw that Chen Xing was a little puzzled. He explained: "Even within Burning Sky Territory, wars often occur, such as the previous nine Red City often comes to our Stone City to plunder, and sometimes our Stone City will have wars with other nearby cities in order to compete for some resources.”

“A Daxia person has asked me this question before, but what I want to say is that although our Stone City belongs to the Burning Heaven Territory, it is only geographically located in the Burning Heaven Territory.

It doesn't mean that I am a loser in Burning Sky Giant City. I have just lived in Stone City since I was a child. Maybe one day I want to visit other places. I may go to Bibo Territory, or even further places.

I stay in Stone City now because I think the atmosphere here is very good, and the city owner is very nice. Do you know about the pension?

The main force of my previous beast control was dead, and I didn't want to continue fighting, so I withdrew from the city guard.

 After quitting, I was able to receive a pension every month. I had never heard of this before. Other cities in the Burning Territory did not have this thing at all.

 As you know, after we withdrew from the City Guards, we actually had nothing to do with the City Guards.

 The city lord is a good man. Although his pension is not much, it is enough to live on.

And I know there are quite a few old guys like me. If everyone contributes, it will be a big expense for the city lord's mansion. "

Chen Xing said with a smile: "Hearing this makes me want to join the army in Stone City."

“Haha, welcome, our Stone City city guards are not limited to their origins, they can be beast masters from anywhere.”

Chen Xing said half-jokingly: "If I work in the City Guards for thirty years, how much pension will I get every month after retirement?"

"It doesn't take thirty years. The city lord said that as long as you join the city guard, everyone will be brothers and treated equally. As long as you work in the city guard for ten years, you will get one spiritual gold every month after retirement."

 One spirit gold?

 Chen Xing was a little surprised.

 The conversion ratio between spiritual iron and spiritual gold has always fluctuated, but the current exchange rate between the two is maintained at around 10,000.

 One spiritual gold can be exchanged for ten thousand spiritual irons.

 If you just live, you can at least guarantee that you won't starve to death.

Mainly, it is about controlling beasts. The body shape of a beast controller is different from that of a beast controller, and the appetite of a beast controller is much larger than that of a beast controller.

But having said that, a beast master who has a beast master can go on adventures in the wild.

 This 1 spiritual gold is mainly to provide a final bottom line for those beast masters who have lost their beast masters and have no financial resources.

“One spirit gold is not a low number, so how much salary can I get if I am in the city guard?”

The old man said: "Salary? You are talking about military pay, right? The City Guards are paid according to their strength. Every five levels of beast mastering are given a military pay of 1 spirit gold. Moreover, if you participate in a war, you can get 50% of the spoils from the enemy." , this is the big one.”

Chen Xingqi said: "If you are a super-level beast master, the salary is a bit too low."

The old man heard the words and said with a smile: "Hahaha, what the super beast masters get is definitely different from ours. I heard that those super beast masters can participate in the city guard's share, such as the total loot of a battle, and the remaining Fifty percent are divided by those super-level beast masters."

 Chen Xing nodded, having an idea in his heart.

If you want to pay your own salary, you can refer to the military salary price of the city defense army.

And judging from the old man's communication, it seems that they don't have much significance in getting more resources from the super beast master.

 The law of the jungle seems to be how it should be for them.

However, Chen Xing didn't completely believe what he said. Although he had just arrived today and he didn't take anyone else with him on the trip, the old man also picked them randomly on the road, but what if?

 After Chen Xing thanked the old man, he and Zhao Guangming started walking around the city again.

As the old man said, many retired beast masters like him in the city live in the city.

Some people may have lost the motivation to continue fighting, so they chose to lie down and do some small work, or open a shop.

 Chen Xing communicated with them as a guest.

 The answers we got were pretty much the same.

"Why don't we go back? We've asked more than a dozen people. The salary of the city guard should be this price." Zhao Guangming rubbed his hands and retreated. The young man didn't know where he got the energy from. It's early in the morning now. It's dark. I heard that in foreign cities, you are generally more likely to encounter danger at night.

“Do you think it's possible for them to collude in advance?”

"Huh?" Zhao Guangming was stunned, then shook his head, "Probably not."

“I think there's a high probability that it won't happen, but it's not a small number after all.” Chen Xing pulled Zhao Guangming to a nearby store.

"Wait, what are you bringing me here for? I'm not this kind of person!" Zhao Guangming said righteously, and he wanted to push Chen Xing's hand away.

 Chen Xing let go, and Zhao Guangming was stunned for two seconds, and then continued to grab Chen Xing's arm, "I must accompany you in to supervise you, and I can't let you go astray!"

"." Chen Xing was speechless. He felt that Zhao Guangming might have thought wrongly, but he was too lazy to explain. He would know it soon.

 Opening the door of the custom shop, the temperature inside is slightly higher than outside.

 There is a faint fragrance in the air.

 A man stepped forward politely and asked, "Do you two want to experience the special features by yourself, or do you want to experience the special features by riding a beast?"

Zhao Guangming was shocked. Can he still experience the characteristics of beast control?

etc!

Zhao Guangming's face was strange. He felt that the stupid dragon was about to move in his beast control space.

The four beast-taming ears in Chen Xing's beast-taming space also stood up at the same time.
