The next day Long Mo got up early, washed up and went to the lobby downstairs. He ordered breakfast and sat there to eat.

Although Xingjiao Post is an inn, it has four floors and covers a small area. In fact, because of the existence of the co-governance model of sects and aristocratic families in Zhao State, the inn actually has considerable connections with various aristocratic families and sects.

After all, inns are arranged according to mileage. From one city to another, it takes at least ten or twenty miles, which is three to four inns.

The inn is not only a monitoring station, but also a source of information. It even has the meaning of an outpost and a stronghold. Naturally, aristocratic families and sects in such a place will not ignore it. The inn is even part of their own influence.

For example, in the current Xingjiao Post, the officers and soldiers are naturally sent by the imperial court or the state shepherds. As for the second stewards and those who run the Xingjiao Post, they may come from aristocratic families in the city, or some of the officers and soldiers are from aristocratic families.

As for the lower counties and even the township, the sects and forces in each county will summon people to go on duty. On the surface, they are to assist the government. As for the large sects and mountain gates, the court will arrange personnel to go on duty.

The sect forces are dominant.

And because the official road is easy to walk, the road is spacious, and it is guarded by officers and soldiers. In addition, the family has a fancy for inns, so they set up one not far away, so there is no need to worry about accommodation at night, so most people will choose to take the official road. Over time, this

The business opportunities inside have been developed. Mainly accommodation and food, followed by vehicles and horses. Of course, they will also sell other things, such as leather clothing and so on. There are even regular swordsmen staying here waiting for businessmen to recruit bodyguards.

.Now that the station has developed, in addition to being self-sufficient, it has even made considerable profits.

Therefore, the inn is a piece of cake in the eyes of all the major aristocratic families, and whether they even set foot in the inn has become a symbolic difference between rich and powerful families.

Long Mo was eating breakfast, and several swordsmen who stayed here were drinking wine and bragging. In order to attract more people to come, the things at the inn were actually quite affordable, which was why these swordsmen were able to sit here and wait for a long time.

After all, building the inn into an intelligence source and stronghold is the original intention of the aristocratic family and the court. Even if it is profitable, they will not sacrifice the good and the bad. Because of the benefits, a large number of people will come. If no one comes, what do you want to inquire here?

information?

These swordsmen were all well-dressed and looked burly and powerful. The long swords were of different colors and shapes. The long swords were placed on the table on the right side. Long Mo could see at a glance that the scabbards of these swords were dark in color.

Qing, they should be made of green pine wood with iron edges. According to Wang Rong's previous knowledge, Long Mo estimated that the quality of these long swords was good, much better than his own Chuixue, and they would cost at least dozens of taels of silver.

.

This world is very fond of swords. After a sword is made, the scabbard, inscriptions, accessories, handguards, and leather will be selected according to the quality of the sword. There are some agreed upon rules. Generally, just looking at the scabbard will make the choice.

Can roughly judge the details of a sword.

Although Long Mo is a beginner, he can still distinguish this simple thing. Long Mo's eyes moved and he saw the table. In addition to a few bottles of wine, there were only a few plates of dishes to go with the wine. It was not that expensive. It was probably enough to eat all day long.

It's only one or two taels of silver, and including the money for drinks, it's only three or four taels, which can't be more. If you share it with a few people, the consumption is actually very low.

This made Long Mo sigh. He still knew something about Qian. He had lived in seclusion for more than ten years and had vegetables, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea. If he didn’t buy it himself, who would buy it? He could only treat the villagers in the town with typhoid fever.

One or two copper knives (similar to the sword coins in the Spring and Autumn Period), although he did not charge labor fees, but other doctors only had three or four copper knives. So three or four taels is not actually a number.

What really makes Long Mo sigh is that the citizens of Qingyuan Town are considered rich if they can earn one or two taels of silver in a month, but these idle swordsmen spend more than this in a day. These swordsmen watch people eat in a month, and spend a whole day

I would be happy if I could earn twenty or thirty taels from a trip, but the servants of the palace all make at least ten or twenty taels a month. The difference is self-evident.

The self-governance of the Zhao family sects has formed a complete and tight social network. It does not exist that ordinary people are the cornerstone of the world and the practice system. In the world of fantasy practice, practitioners are the cornerstone.

However, practitioners from aristocratic families and sects in Zhao State did not regard the lower class people as ants and act recklessly. Instead, they took many protective actions, such as forming a dynasty and using official methods to govern. Every county, township, and even the government officials

People with spiritual talents will basically be recruited by the corresponding forces. Some sects even have training tasks, requiring some masters to practice. The purpose is either to spread the law of fate, or to recruit disciples and eliminate evil. There is even a young talent competition.

Give people a hope and opportunity.

With these measures, the entire system was stabilized, the sect continued to grow, and the aristocratic families also continued to grow. Therefore, from the founding of the Zhao Kingdom to the present, there has never been any major turmoil.

…

"When the Youth Talent Competition opens, brothers are all going to try their luck. We don't expect to join any of the three major sects. But if other sects take a fancy to us, that's fine. It's better than waiting at the inn every day.

Money comes from business." A voice came from several swordsmen.

"Qingshan is right. I have been practicing my swordsmanship recently, and the auditions are also very good. When the time comes, a group of us will help each other, and maybe we will be spotted in the three levels!" A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes

The young man took a sip of wine and smiled.

"Yes, anyone who has practiced for three or four years can pass the audition. It is mainly three levels. This thing has different tricks every year. Brothers help each other. Even if they fail, it will be easy to be recruited by some sects in the future. I can't say

Finally, I can do some work at the post station." Several swordsmen were very tempted when these words came out. The post station is a good job. First of all, it is free, as long as you have nothing to do, just go out for a walk. Secondly, you have plenty of fuel and water! The post station is cheap and good,

But the swordsmen who work as bodyguards and foreign traders are very strictly controlled, and most people will show some filial piety to avoid trouble. They are considered local snakes, and they are local snakes with backers. This is indeed a problem for them

Good way out.

Next is the bragging and spanking stage, such as "Oh, last time Brother Lin used the Shenlong Sea move to scare the crap out of the thieves on the opposite side..." "I'm still awesome, I can't dance with a sword so fast, I

It’s still too far behind…”

During this wave of business exchanges, wine was poured into a large vat. Long Mo was sitting on the side as a breakfast audience and found it interesting, just like someone telling you a story.
