The second branch of the Computer Hall has officially opened. The address is Cloud Desert, Jade City.
The system notification sounded.
"Branch? Jade City?"
Ye Rong was stunned. He didn't expect the system to open a branch, but what the f * ck was the meaning of opening a branch in Jade City?
He had to arrange for people to work in Jade City from afar? Or should he go to Jade City to guard it?
What the hell!
Don't worry, the branch has a spatial teleportation function. Any customer who enters the branch will be automatically teleported to the mobile game hall. After leaving, they will be automatically teleported back to the customer's location.
As if sensing Ye Rong's thoughts, the system explained.
"I see! That's really not bad! He just didn't know where this branch was located in Jade City.”
Ye Rong suddenly understood.
At the same time.
Thousands of miles away from Chang 'an, in the Cloud Desert.
A magnificent city stood on the barren desert, and countless merchants and travelers came to this place.
Jade City!
A city that thrived because of jade was like a beautiful flower blooming in the desert, dazzling and luxurious.
Thanks to the rich jade resources and the protection of the jade enchantment, Jade City had become the only city in the Cloud Desert that had been spared from war for many years. Moreover, it had become a legend of countless wealth in the continuous prosperity of trade!
The top-grade jade produced in Jade City had attracted the attention of the top nobles in Chang 'an and the Xuan Yong Empire. The best parts were even offered as tributes to the empress, the Qin Emperor, and the others, making the name of Jade City even more dazzling.
The king of Jade City had died ten years ago, and the two princes he left behind were in charge of the city.
To be exact.
The First Prince was the current king of Jade City, but he was not a competent king.
He did not have the bearing and wisdom of a king at all. He was addicted to singing, dancing, drinking, and music all day long, and even openly played. If it wasn't for the fact that she had inherited the throne of the king, she would have been imprisoned long ago.
Now, the one who had truly turned the tide and taken control of the entire Jade City was Great General Royer.
The former king's most loyal subordinate had a high prestige in Jade City and controlled all the armed forces in Jade City.
It was a pity.
This general seemed to be unpopular. Because of the preciousness of the jade mine, the manpower of Jade City was no longer enough to support the current mining speed. The measure of recruiting miners once every two years in the past had now been changed to once every six months under the arrangement of the general.
Jade City was very prosperous.
However, most of the people of Jade City who lived here could only stay in the dark and depressed mine for the rest of their lives until they died.
This was a city that lived in a drunken stupor. The nobles had far more power and enjoyment than anything else. The commoners, the untouchables, and even bathing in the sun had become a luxury.
However, no one dared to stand up against General Royer, because those who opposed him were already dead.
On the streets of the Imperial City, there were only the shouts of the nobles and the numb eyes of the commoners.
"Your Majesty! This is the best wine I bought from the Tang Dynasty's winery. Please have a taste, Your Majesty!”
Surrounded by a group of golden-armored guards, a man dressed like a priest handed over a jug of fine wine.
"Hehe ~~~ You know me best. The fine wine of the Great Tang is worth thousands of gold! Our Jade City is such a big place, but other than these stones, there's no wine. A bunch of useless things!! You should be rewarded!"
On the imperial carriage, a young man dressed in the clothes of the king of Jade City, who reeked of alcohol, muttered. He casually threw down a piece of extremely high-quality jade. The priest's eyes immediately lit up and he hurriedly caught it.
The surrounding guards were all angry but did not dare to say anything. They could only let the youth scold them.
He was the king of Jade City. In this city, the king had supreme power. Unless all the elders of the Secret Jade Association unanimously dismissed him, the king was still the king!
The priest beamed as he looked at the jade in his hand, while the young man gulped down the wine with great satisfaction. A few beautiful women beside him hurriedly supported him, afraid that he would fall on the carriage.
"Thank you, King!"
The priest who received the reward was extremely grateful. He secretly raised his head from the ground and smiled.
He was someone that General Royer had placed beside the king. Although the new king was a good-for-nothing, Royer was cautious by nature and still placed many eyes beside the young man.
However, in the priest's opinion, such a foolish king was unpopular. It would not be long before the elders of the Secret Jade Society would agree to depose him. At that time…hehe, once Great General Royer ascended the throne, he would also be able to benefit from it!
"Tell the Great General to get me more wine from the Great Tang. It's much better than our stuff that's even worse than horse piss. I can exchange it for any jade, even the Star Jade. Get lost! Don't block me!"
The young man on the carriage cursed and kicked away the maid beside him. He fell to the ground, reeking of alcohol. The guards who followed him hurriedly went to help him.
Some of the guards looked down on this youth.
The Star Billow Jade was the foundation of the Jade City. The entire Jade City's huge barrier was built with the Star Billow Jade. It was the order of the successive Kings of the Jade City. Root!
But now.
It could only be said that his son was unworthy. He actually wanted to use the Star Billow Jade to exchange for wine. Any king with a bit of intelligence would not do such a thing. However, this First Prince, who was the current king, was completely wasting a gift from heaven. Both men and gods were furious.
"Hehe, I'll immediately convey His Majesty's decree to the Great General and buy more wine for His Majesty!”
The priest quickly said excitedly. He was even too lazy to kneel down again. He stood up and chose to leave without hearing the order.
A king who did not have long to live, what was the point of pretending?
The young man who had fallen to the ground opened his eyes, and a bright light flashed in his eyes. Then, he staggered to his feet and kicked a few maids who were in his way to the ground.
"Eh?"
He was suddenly stunned and stared blankly in front of him." When did this shop open? When did this king allow it?"
In front of him, a shop called the Hall of Computer Manipulation was particularly eye-catching.
Because this was the inner city of the palace.
It was impossible for them to open up a shop for merchants, but this shop…had appeared in front of the young man strangely and abruptly.
"Strange, I didn't see any shops here yesterday. Why are there shops here today? Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I'll go check it out immediately!”
A guard frowned and requested.
"Get lost, this king will go and see for himself. You guys just stay here! Don't get in the way!"
The young man cursed angrily and staggered toward the hall. The accompanying guards retreated in fear.
