The Wishes Tower is located in the west area of King Tiangui's capital. This area has always been one of the busiest areas in the capital.
The Tower of Wishes is indeed a tower and one of the holy places of Tiangui Kingdom.
Every year during the festival, this wishing tower will be very lively.
Especially during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Tower of Wishes is almost crowded with people. In the Tiangui Kingdom, the osmanthus tree is their national tree.
The osmanthus tree has always been closely related to the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The area around the wishing tower is covered with osmanthus trees. At this time of year, the osmanthus flowers have bloomed, exuding a delicate fragrance that spreads for miles.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and at least half a month before and after it will be the busiest and most interesting time for the Wish Tower.
Through understanding, Jiang Chen knew what the wish tower was about.
It turns out that this wish tower is a ritual that has been passed down for thousands of years in the Tiangui Kingdom. From the imperial family to the poor, if there are any unresolved wishes, they can be put into the wish tower.
Every wish comes with a reward.
If someone can help realize this wish, they can get this reward. Of course, every wish placed will be strictly reviewed to ensure that the corresponding reward can be paid.
The Wish Tower is basically open once a month.
However, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Wish Tower will be developed continuously for half a month, and the level of opening is very high.
The entire wish tower has a total of sixteen floors.
On ordinary days, depending on the month, the number of floors open is below six floors, and if it is higher, it is below eight floors.
During the Chinese New Year month, it is usually open to the tenth or even twelfth floor.
In the month of Mid-Autumn Festival, it is open every day, and the lowest level is ten floors. It may also be eleven, twelve, or even higher.
Even on the Mid-Autumn Festival, the 16th floor will be open.
Of course, no one has been to the sixteenth floor. No one knows whether there is a wish scroll on the sixteenth floor.
Even if there is, it is a wish that reaches the heavens, and basically no one can solve it. At that level, it is basically symbolic.
In the Wish Tower, if you want to submit a wish scroll, you need to pay a fee, but the fee is not much. You can submit it every day without restrictions.
Wishing Tower, if you want to draw a wish scroll, you have to wait for the opening day of the wishing tower.
Like today, as the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, it's an open day and it's very lively.
Of course, not everyone can draw a wish scroll. There is also a fee to draw a wish scroll. Moreover, the amount of payment is much higher than submitting a wish scroll.
Enter the first floor and pay ten taels of silver.
For the second level, pay twenty taels of silver.
On the third level, pay fifty taels of silver.
On the fourth floor, pay one hundred taels of silver.
The fifth floor...
When you reach the tenth floor, you have to pay ten thousand taels of silver.
Even higher, it's even higher.
I have to say that this wish tower is very interesting, but also very expensive.
"Who came up with the idea of this wishing tower? This is simply crazy money-making." Qiao Baishi admired.
Looking at this wish tower, there are huge crowds of people, and there are countless people who want to draw the wish scroll. From this point of view, the income from this open day is simply amazing.
Qiao Baishi has always felt that Medicine Master Palace is very good at making money, but this Wish Tower is even better at making money. And this money can be earned easily.
As soon as the door opened, people were crying and shouting to get in and send money inside.
"Master, let's have some fun?" Qiao Baishi felt that Master's young man's character should be more interested in this.
"Let's go up and have a look."
If Jiang Chen wants to play, he will naturally not consider wishes below the tenth floor. He goes straight up and reaches the wish tower on the tenth floor.
On the tenth floor of the wish tower, ten thousand taels of silver can be used to draw a wish scroll.
If the drawn wish scroll cannot be completed, the ten thousand taels of silver will not be returned.
Of course, once this wish can be realized, the return rate will be at least a hundred times or a thousand times the cost, or even more.
It has to be said that there are many rich people in the Tiangui Kingdom. Even on the tenth floor of the Wish Tower, there are still many people.
The banknotes worth twenty thousand taels were kept being handed over.
Some people even spend a lot of money, throwing away hundreds of thousands of taels, buying a bunch of wish scrolls, and then go to the corner and look at them one by one.
This type of people are usually wealthy people doing business and big businessmen.
This kind of people have money, but their social status is not high and they do not get much sense of recognition. They cannot mix with the upper class in the royal capital and cannot enter the circle of nobles.
They came to the Wish Tower purely to try their luck and find out if any big shot had submitted a wish here that they could help realize.
Of course, this probability is very low. Generally, the higher the level of a wish, the more difficult it is to realize it. If it is a task that cannot be solved by high-ranking officials, these wealthy businessmen may have no possibility of realizing it.
Jiang Chen looked at the door of the tenth floor of the Wish Tower for a moment, then raised his head and looked up: "What floor is the highest open today?"
"Hello, today the highest level of the Wish Tower is 12 floors."
Jiang Chen nodded: "Let's go to the twelfth floor to have a look."
Jiang Chen is not short of money. Although his cooperation with Medicine Master Palace was short-lived, it also allowed him to accumulate a lot of wealth.
In the twelve-story wish tower, the price of drawing a wish scroll is already as high as 50,000 taels.
"Guest, do you want to try your luck?" The deacon of the 12th floor Wish Tower greeted Jiang very politely.
Jiang Chen took a hundred thousand taels of silver notes and said, "Let's play a few games."
In the Sixteen-Nation Alliance, there are big ticket numbers, and banknotes can be exchanged with each other. A hundred thousand taels of silver banknotes can be used to draw two wish scrolls at the twelve-story wish tower.
A sexy etiquette lady led Jiang Chen and the others towards the inner hall.
This wish tower is very luxuriously decorated, and each floor has its own style and characteristics. The style of this twelve-story wish tower is simple and antique, but it has a strong sense of heaviness.
There are many shelves around the hall. Different areas and different shelves also represent different ways to issue wishes.
Official, military, four major venues, as well as various large institutions and organizations.
The wish scrolls that can be placed on the twelfth floor of the wish tower are of very high levels. Basically, if they can be completed, the rewards will be astonishing.
Jiang Chen was also an attentive listener. He was on the road just now and heard that someone had drawn a wish and obtained the status of a fifth-grade noble directly from a commoner.
It's not that Jiang Chen attaches great importance to noble status, but in Tiangui Kingdom, especially in Tiangui Capital, without noble status, it is almost impossible to move forward.
Apart from anything else, I am not qualified to buy a house.
Like Tang Long, he has already joined the military and became a border patrol pterodactyl knight. However, he lacks a noble status and can only live in the slums.
This is the reality of Tiangui Kingdom.
Even if Jiang Chen regards glory and wealth as dirt, he cannot avoid this reality.
And how to get a noble seat in a short period of time? The noble status of ninth and eighth grade is really too low, and Jiang Chen doesn't even look down on it.
Not to mention the third and fourth grades, there must be a fifth grade, right? Even if the fifth grade is a bit difficult, the sixth grade is the lowest baseline. If it is any lower, Jiang Chen has no interest.
Jiang Chen would definitely not draw a scroll from the military. He had no interest in joining the army at all. For example, driving an army of millions of swordbirds to fight against the Black Moon Kingdom army, once or twice, Jiang Chen was tired of it.
Yes. In the final analysis, it is all necessary due to the situation.
Jiang Chen doesn't want to touch the official wish scroll for the time being.
When it comes to officialdom struggles, Jiang Chen is tired of playing in the Eastern Kingdom. He knows that it is a minefield, and the slightest move can affect his whole body.
If you step in hastily, you may get burned. Although I am not afraid, the purpose of going to Tiangui Kingdom is for development, not to cause trouble.
The only ones left are the four major venues, as well as those big institutions and organizations.
Although these forces may appear to be as prominent as the official military, in fact, they secretly control the lifeblood of the entire kingdom.
Jiang Chen lingered below for a moment. These wish scrolls were not broken down into subdivisions. Therefore, it was impossible to know which company issued the wish.
Jiang Chen easily picked out two of them.
When the first wish scroll was opened, Jiang Chen couldn't help laughing.
This was obviously posted by a woman whose wish is to stay young forever, hoping that she will always maintain the appearance of a 20- or 30-year-old in the next thirty years.
Looking at the publisher of this wish scroll, it turned out to be an elder named Ning from Qianlan Nangong.
The reward of this wish scroll is really amazing. If this wish can be realized, you can directly become the elder's follower and gain the status of a sixth-grade noble.
Jiang Chen sighed helplessly, the fifty thousand yuan was wasted. There was no way to stay young forever, there were also many elixirs to keep one's appearance.
However, Jiang Chen was not interested in spending so much time on a boring woman. Just as he was about to throw the scroll back, he caught a glimpse of Qiao Baishi beside him.
He paused for a moment and threw the scroll to Qiao Baishi: "Baishi, this may be suitable for you."
Jiang Chen didn't have time to get this kind of beauty-preserving elixir, but Qiao Baishi had time.
Qiao Baishi took it and took a look, and also smiled bitterly: "Young Master, I know nothing about Zhu Yan. Besides, if you work for any elder as a follower, you can imagine that she must be an extremely narcissistic and resentful woman with early menopause. I think
,forget it?"
"Haha, you don't have to be a follower. Being a sixth-grade noble is not bad either."
Indeed, as Jiang Chen said, there is really no point in following an elder, especially such a narcissistic female elder, who must be very difficult to maintain.
However, the status of a sixth-grade noble is very attractive. There are also many people coming to Tiangui Kingdom this time from Jiang Chen.
There must always be a settlement.
The more aristocrats get, the better naturally. A multi-pronged approach can be achieved if there are dates but not dates. If one end is not successful, the other end may be successful.
The most important thing is to ensure a noble status for the time being. Fortunately, King Tiangui has a foothold of his own.
Otherwise, living in an inn every day is not an option.
