Chapter 942 Surrounded by onlookers in Guicheng
Three days later, Chu Chen stopped the car, lit a cigarette, and pointed to the endless city in front of him, asking Sha Yanyan a question.
“That’s right, Guicheng is just ahead. It’s a super city, more than ten times larger than Shanhaicheng and Damocheng.”
"It has a large population; it is more like a country than a city."
Chu Chen nodded after listening: "Okay, then we'll stay here tonight!"
Looking at the densely packed houses in front of him, Chu Chen was also extremely surprised.
In his memory, he had never seen such a large city, so large that it seemed to have no edge. Not believing it, he took out his binoculars, but he still couldn't see the edge.
It's like a vast sea of houses, stretching as far as the eye can see.
With a roar, the car sped towards the city gate.
It was called a city gate, but there were no city walls. It was just a passage guarded by a group of soldiers on the road between the mountains and houses.
Upon seeing Chu Chen's strange car arrive, the group quickly set up roadblocks.
Then a soldier walked over and asked, "Who are you? What brings you to Guicheng?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen immediately took out the city lord token that Sha Jinrui had given him earlier and handed it over.
"Lord Chu Chen of the Desert City, please allow me to pass through Gui City!"
"Desert City?"
The sergeant was puzzled for a moment after hearing this, then took the token and ran behind him.
Immediately afterwards, a man who looked like an officer followed the soldier over.
Then, after looking Chu Chen up and down, he said, "Are you really the city lord of the Great Desert City?"
"Replace it if it's fake!"
"I remember that Desert City was controlled by the Black Fiend Army, could it be that you are?"
"I've already killed Zuo Yunxiong. Enough with the nonsense, let him through!"
Chu Chen was getting a bit angry as he was being questioned by these soldiers. If he weren't in Sha Jinrui's Heavenly Domain, or if he weren't a seed, he would have lost his temper long ago!
No matter what, he was a late-stage Void God Realm expert, one of the top powers in this world.
Seeing Chu Chen get angry, the leading soldier continued to stall for time with a grin.
It's not that he doesn't want to release him, it's that he dares not. If this person is Zuo Yunxiong, letting him in would be like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. What would happen to all the people inside?
Just as he was looking anxious, three figures suddenly rushed over from a distance.
Chu Chen took a look and saw that they were all at the late stage of the Void God Realm, and then he understood the soldier's intention.
"Haha, Guicheng City Lord Xie Tianhao, Deputy City Lords Zhu Qin and Qiu Tian greet this brother!"
After saying that, the three men took the city lord's token from the soldier, waved to the soldier to leave, and then examined the token.
A short while later, Xie Tianhao returned the token to Chu Chen.
Others may not know, but he knows very well that the Desert City Lord has appointed a new city lord, a young man, and seems to value him highly.
Rumors have it that the domain lord's granddaughter, Sha Yanyan, has been assigned to accompany him.
However, Sha Yanyan did not get out of the car at that moment, so Xie Tianhao and the others did not see her.
"Brother, you must be Chu Chen, the pride of heaven! Welcome to Guicheng! Come on, let's go into town and your brothers will welcome you!"
"Lord Xie, you are too kind. I would not call myself a prodigy; it is merely an overstatement by the lord!"
After saying that, Chu Chen climbed into the RV without any hesitation, and then stepped on the gas and drove into Guicheng.
After entering Guicheng, Chu Chen realized how big Guicheng was. Since Sha Yanyan had been in the car the whole time, no one else had seen her.
"Chu Chen, this Xie Tianhao is also a local tyrant. He is highly regarded by Grandpa and has done a good job governing Guicheng. He can be considered a very capable person."
Chu Chen nodded after listening: "In that case, let's not stay here. I'm still a little worried about Desert City. How about we go to the city lord's mansion for a while, and then go straight back to Huangsha City!"
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say!"
Sha Yanyan responded obediently!
After the car entered Guicheng, it attracted a lot of attention, and some of the bolder ones even surrounded it.
Although these people all possess considerable strength, they might not be slower than a car if they were to sprint at once.
But this big guy looks incredibly powerful, and seeing how dusty and travel-worn it is, everyone understands that this thing has amazing endurance.
Even more so, some who went to Shanhai City to do business already knew about this item, so it's normal for them to be seen in Guicheng at this moment.
While Shanhai City did indeed have more than just vehicle traffic with Damo City, it had never visited Guicheng because Guicheng was a super-large city and it had hardly paid any attention to Guo Song.
So the car changed course and headed east!
Chu Chen honked the horn and followed Xie Tianhao's directions. Soon after, he arrived at the square outside the City Lord's Mansion and stopped.
However, as soon as the car stopped, the people swarmed over.
Seeing Chu Chen get out of the car, he boldly asked, "Young Master, is this car from Shanhai City?"
"Oh, you know him?"
Xie Tianhao and his two companions, along with Chu Chen, all appeared quite surprised.
"Haha, I've seen even bigger seafood than this when I was buying seafood in Shanhai City. It would be perfect for carrying people and goods."
"It's said that they don't eat grass, yet they run incredibly fast, and most importantly, they never get tired!"
After listening, Xie Tianhao turned to look at Chu Chen: "Lord Chu, what he said... is it the truth?"
At that moment, Sha Yanyan also got out of the car. As soon as Xie Tianhao and the other two saw her, they immediately stepped forward and said, "Oh... my niece is here too?"
"Yan Yan greets Uncle Xie, Uncle Zhu, and Uncle Tian!"
"Hahaha, alright, alright, come on, let's go inside and talk. Tell me all about your car!"
Xie Tianhao suddenly remembered the invitation Guo Song had sent him earlier, saying that there was a car collaboration they wanted to work on.
He was busy at the time and didn't have time to think about it, but now his own people have mentioned it, and said it so well. It seems that this thing is really not simple!
After entering the city lord's mansion, the group arrived at a large reception hall.
"Lord Chu, niece, could you tell us about this car?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen thought to himself, "This is another business opportunity! Another day to make a fortune!"
"Lords of the city, this thing is called a car. It's unique to Desert City. It's faster and more durable than horse-drawn carriages or oxcarts. Of course, it's only sold in Desert City!"
After hearing this, the group immediately became interested!
"You mean, you sell them there?"
"That's right, a wide road has been built between my Desert City and Mountain and Sea City. Currently, this is the main tool used by the two cities to communicate!"
After saying that, Chu Chen invited the three of them to sit in the RV.
They drove out of Guicheng with them, and then took a detour along the official road beside the river embankment.
Experiencing the car's comfort and the various technologies they had never seen before, the three of them instantly fell in love with it.
"Lord Chu, hurry, name your price! I want this car!"
