Chapter 2 Grand View World A month later. This is the market in Meixian County. There are cloth shops, rice shops, pawn shops, Chinese medicine shops, clothing shops, watch shops, etc. lined up side by side. The hawkers pushed carts or carried loads on their shoulders, and the sounds of their hawkers rang out one after another, filling the city with the atmosphere of the marketplace. Yu Xiao has changed his appearance. He is wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a well-tailored suit with a pocket watch in his pocket. He is wearing a white shirt, a tie at his collar, and fine leather shoes. He is reading a newspaper in the teahouse. A waiter said respectfully, "Master Yu, you can set off now." Outside, four bearers carried the large sedan chair, while twenty porters carried heavy shoulder poles and ten mules were loaded with all kinds of supplies. "lets go!" Yu Xiao got into the sedan chair. This is a high-profile behavior.
It was a deliberate act after planning. Over the past month, he has been extremely cautious, even treading on thin ice. His main job has been collecting intelligence. Now he can make a periodic summary. First of all. The time flow rate in the two worlds relative to each other is 100:1! When Yu Xiao is in the main world, the flow of time in the sub-world will be reduced by a hundred times. When Yu Xiao is in the sub-world, the flow of time in the main world will be reduced by a hundred times. It's been a month here. It’s only been seven hours in the main world. Yu Xiao closed his eyes and communicated with the ancient monument. I saw some information appearing on the ancient monument. - Name: Yu Xiao. Cultivation: None yet. Reputation: 0/100 (Nobody). Luck growth: 0 points per year. Current luck: 98. - Yu Xiao originally had 100 points of luck, but because he consumed 2 points, he had 98 points left. It is currently known that Qiyun has two major functions.
【The first one: increase lifespan. 】 As long as you still have luck, your lifespan will not be consumed. Every point of luck is equivalent to one year of lifespan. If the remaining luck at this moment is not used at all, Yu Xiao can live another 98 years, and will remain the same, without any signs of aging. This discovery. Yu Xiao was very excited. In this way, if you travel between two worlds or multiple worlds, there is no need to worry about rapid aging even if there is a 100-fold time difference. Theoretically speaking, as long as he has enough luck, Yu Xiao's lifespan will be endless, and he will never age. This is true immortality! 【Second: Resource exchange! 】 Things from one world cannot be directly brought into another world. This involves conflict and exclusion at the level of laws, and luck can offset conflict and exclusion, allowing resources from different worlds to flow. However, the higher the grade and the stronger the attributes of the item, the more luck it consumes. Theoretically speaking. Living things can also be transported. However, the consumption will be ten or a hundred times greater and there will be many restrictions. Yu Xiao conducted an experiment using all his personal property, 1080 gold bars (10800 taels). Probably because gold is a mundane object without any attributes, and gold is popular in this world, so the luck consumed is little, only reduced by a mere 2 points, and no further consumption will be incurred when entering and exiting again. visible. Luck is a vital resource. How to obtain luck? This has also been studied. The ancient monument released two tasks, one is a world task and the other is a luck task. The former requires cultivation to the "heavenly realm" of this world, which is presumably the threshold to open the door to the next world. The latter is to accumulate reputation in this world. The higher the level of reputation Yu Xiao possesses, the more luck he can generate every year. The current reputation value is 0. The level is "Nobody". Unable to generate any luck. So you have to find a way to gain reputation. To gain prestige. First you need to understand the world. Yu Xiao spent a lot of energy on research. The world structure of this side is similar to that of the previous life, but because of the existence of real extraordinary power, even if it is only the strength of low-level martial arts, it is enough to bring about many changes, so the historical process is similar and the details are specious.
It is now the late nineteenth century. The Industrial Revolution broke out and productivity increased by leaps and bounds. However, China was ruled by the feudal "Dajing Empire", which was corrupt from top to bottom. It was defeated by the great powers many times, signed unequal treaties, established concessions and opened ports, giving the country an atmosphere of the end of a dynasty. This is definitely a bad time! The empire was in decline, surrounded by powerful enemies, bandits were everywhere, and the people were living in misery. However, from the rotten soil, unprecedented vitality is sprouting, various progressive thoughts and advanced concepts are emerging, and masters of a hundred schools of thought are emerging. We are about to come to the most important crossroads in history. The above is a background check. It’s important to understand the bigger picture. But the foundation of people’s livelihood is also important. The currency of Dajing is mainly silver and copper. Or there may be some supernatural power that improves productivity. The population of Dajing is larger than in the late Qing Dynasty, so the purchasing power of gold and silver is slightly higher. Dajing's silver dollar was also called ocean, and one tael of gold could be exchanged for 100 oceans, and one ocean could be exchanged for 100 copper cents (copper coins). Quang Viet Province has many trading ports and a relatively prosperous economy. A rickshaw driver could earn one dollar a month, while a relatively decent job such as patrolling could earn three to four dollars a month to support a family of three. As for the specific prices? Based on the detailed visits and investigations these days. Rice is 2 cents per pound, pork is 10 cents per pound, live chicken is 12 cents per pound, beef is 15 cents per pound... Cooking oil is 6 cents per catty, cotton cloth is 12 cents per foot, salt is 3 cents per catty, sugar is 6 cents per catty, ordinary tea is 2 cents per catty, and ordinary cigarettes are 3 cents per box... Gold has such strong purchasing power in this world! This surprised Yu Xiao! He could exchange any gold bar for 1000 yuan, which was enough to buy about 3 kilograms of rice, kilograms of pork, or more than kilograms of beef... and he could earn a guaranteed gold bars by mining every day! And the more than ten thousand taels of gold saved in the past two years. It is undoubtedly a huge fortune! Even if Yu Xiao does nothing, he can become a wealthy man in this world with this asset alone. Not only will he no longer have to worry about food, clothing and other expenses, but he can also live a decent life like a superior person! of course! This is a chaotic world where people eat each other and supernatural powers exist. Yu Xiao is an ordinary person with no background. For the sake of his own safety, he cannot show off his wealth easily and needs to gain a firm foothold as soon as possible. The problem is coming again. How can you quickly integrate into this world without any background, identity, or clear origins? If you can't quickly integrate into this world, how can you build reputation and luck, and take advantage of the advantage of traveling between two worlds? Weigh the pros and cons repeatedly. Come up with multiple options. There is no shortage of people who quickly gain fame.
But in the end I decided to play it safe. Don’t you have no identity? Then make up one. Western learning was popular in this era. Not only did the middle and upper classes send their children abroad to study, but even the lower-class people went to North America, Europe, and Southeast Asian countries to make a living or work. Quang Viet Province is the place that exports the largest number of overseas Chinese. Meixian is also the hometown of overseas Chinese around the world. Yu Xiao found out that there was a large Yujia Village nearby. As early as forty or fifty years ago, a large number of young and strong people went to Xingqi, Maple Leaf, France and other countries to build railways due to their livelihood. no doubt. Most of these workers have become dried bones under wooden sleepers. Even for the few who survived, in this era of inconvenient transportation, most of them can only live overseas and it is almost impossible for them to ever return to their homeland! Yu Xiao through some channels. I got a genealogy copy of Yujia Village. He decided to pretend to be the descendants of Yujiacun who were scattered overseas. In this era, the people are tough and clan concepts are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. This move can take advantage of the opportunity to win over a group of local tyrants who are "related to you", so that you can take root in this world. With a legitimate identity and local connections, it will be much easier to get things done. For example. Get some guns and ammunition. These thermal weapons are meaningless to high-level monks. However, it is very effective against the lowest level of independent cultivators. As an outsider, no matter how rich he is, without any background or connections, he would get into trouble if he rashly inquired about purchasing. However, if he entrusts the help of a local boss, the difficulty would be greatly reduced. Another example. Yu Xiao wanted to trade some tea and medicinal herbs from the main world. These things may not be a big deal in the main world with abundant spiritual energy, but they are priceless in Dajing Country with low martial arts background. However, it is precisely because of this that they will be coveted by various forces. If you don't have someone you can trust and your own power base, you will act rashly. I’m afraid you won’t even know how you died. Therefore, this drama of returning home in glory is very important to Yu Xiao, and he must perform well! The new book is launched, with two updates every day, around 1:00 . (End of this chapter)
