Chapter 1354 Hell also has a bank?
...
"Underground, black market?"
Wang Yan's brows moved, and he couldn't help but want to complain. He understood the black market, but he couldn't just call it an underground black market just because it was underground, right? The name is too casual.
"It's not all." Princess Chifu shook his head and explained, "The black market is a legal trade for us, used to sell some things of unknown origin, so there is also an underground black market, which cannot be traded openly."
"So that's it." Wang Yan suddenly realized. It seemed that the Purgatory Demons were not as barbaric as they seemed on the surface. They did have their own culture and ideas, although they were completely different from the earth.
"How is it? Let's go there first, and then talk about where to go." Lord Chihuo was full of longing for the top female slave, and was determined to go and find a good one.
"Then let's go there first." Wang Yan nodded and agreed. He was not familiar with this place anyway, so it would be better to follow other people's recommendations and go over and take a look.
So the group set off again.
There are about five trade zones in the entire Liuhuo City. Wang Yan and others are currently located in the core area and the largest central trade zone.
The so-called core area naturally refers to the gathering area of the Red Refining Demon Clan that radiates around the Demon King Palace, which is the aristocratic area mentioned by other races.
The system here is rigorous, with the most complete and best things, and naturally the largest scale. It belongs to the orthodox trade zone of official nature. The power behind it is the Demon King's Palace ruled by the Red Refining Demon King. Therefore, it is safest to buy and sell things here, and no one dares to cause trouble when the Demon King's eyelids are low.
As for the other four trade gathering areas, they are scattered among civilian areas.
The civilian area is a multi-ethnic mixed living area, with a range outside the noble area and extending to both sides of the inner and outer walls.
It is very active and has a very large population base for ordinary races living here. Excluding the migrant population, there are as many as 20 to 30 million ordinary residents.
Therefore, with the demand for food, daily necessities, as well as equipment, weapons, medicines, and even slave trade, and entertainment industries, four large trade zones emerged.
Among them are trading companies mainly goblins, which are formed by goblin commercial areas, and there are also escort employed trade areas formed by barbarian mercenaries. The other two are alien trade areas jointly created by multiple races, which Wang Yan is not very familiar with.
In short, these large trade zones have become the central points for material distribution and distribution.
It also made Liuhuo City an economic center for a war-type main city.
After a short walk, Wang Yan and others walked through the huge square and finally arrived in front of this majestic and tall building.
Wang Yan looked around and found that this architectural style was rough and grand. The whole was composed of stone and thick columns, which had the majestic momentum of an ancient Greek temple.
According to the road along the way, Princess Chifu also helped introduce: "This underground black market with a large area is divided into two parts. The upper three floors are a normal business department, mainly responsible for item identification, acquisition, and agency bank deposit and withdrawal services. The lower three floors are the real black market trading area."
There are banks in hell?
This was the first thought that arose in Wang Yan's mind, but then he realized it.
There are indeed banks in the Hell world. When the economy develops to a certain extent, banking business that arises from economic trade will come into being.
For example, the accounts, cabinets, money shops, and bill numbers in ancient my country were all early banks. As early as the end of the 17th century, the prototype of modern banks had already emerged in Western Europe.
Therefore, as long as there is economic and trade place, banking business will definitely occur. Although the three demons in the Hell World are hostile to each other, their economic and trade between them has never been cut off.
However, in the Hell World, the name of the bank is a bit different from the name of the earth today, but it translates to the meaning of the bank. As a modern earthlinger, Wang Yan still habitually calls this organization a bank.
In addition, the three demons all understood that what they wanted was a hell of prosperity, so rich that after they defeated their opponents, they could support their ambitions and extend the invading tentacles to other planes. Instead of the only one demon in the end, he was the one and a barren land of poverty and backwardness.
Therefore, when the three demons negotiated the armistice, many treaties on economic protection between the people were signed into the armistice agreement.
Later, a huge financial system was formed in the entire Hell World. Its name was very long. After translation, Wang Yan believed that this financial organization could be called Hell General Trading Company.
Under this large financial system, such as the Goblin Investment Company, the Barbarian Mercenary Escort Group, and even the central banks of the main cities of the major demon kings, they all belong to the branches of this metal system.
This also forms a commercial group, Hell General Commercial Bank, which is separated from the war system and has a unified currency, a unified rule and a common regulatory system.
"Entering the black market requires redemption of chips. A few guests, here, redemption of chips is on this side..."
In front of the counter in the reception room window, a short demon old man, flirted with an aging voice, gently tapped the wooden counter in front of him, trying to give guidance to Wang Yan and others who were looking around.
However, when Wang Yan and others approached with the sound, the old man finally raised his head and saw the person coming clearly. Then he was so scared that he jumped off the stool behind the counter.
"County, Princess Princess! If you are wrong, you are wrong, you are wrong and you are wrong..." The old man in reception quickly opened the door of the reception room and came out from inside, and said in a panic: "The princess Princess is coming, which really makes our black market shine! Hey, why are you still standing there? Why don't you come to welcome Princess Princess!"
As the old man received a shout, the tough bodyguards, assistants, servants, etc. around him quickly left the work at hand, hurried from everywhere, lined up respectfully on both sides, lowered their heads to greet him, waiting for Princess Chifu to give instructions.
In the Hell World, the lower class has a deep fear and respect for the upper class nobles. At the same time, according to Princess Chifu, her father, Chi Lian Demon King, also secretly owns a lot of shares in this black market. As the daughter of Chi Lian Demon King, she is also considered a shareholder here.
"This, this...isn't this Lord Demon Flame?!"
The old man who had a good eye-catching world recognized Wang Yan beside Chi Fu at first sight, so he brought someone to compliment and please him. Chi Huo was praised a few words, which made him feel happy and his face smiled.
After some politeness, everyone got into the theme of coming here this time.
