Doomsday Code

Chapter 230 Entering the City

In the wind and snow, the Black Wood Gang's convoy followed the ruts in the snow towards Huidun City.

Monty in the carriage opened the curtain and looked around.

At this time, the outside of Huidun City was no longer as dilapidated as when they had just left. There were residential houses made of cement scattered around outside the city.

The new roads are also paved with cement. In the early morning, you can see special snow removal workers clearing the snow on the road.

In the convoy, the girls from the Hongmei Pavilion also stuck their heads out to look at the current appearance of Huidun City.

Before this, Huidun was synonymous with dirtiness and messiness in their eyes, and the only thing that had changed was the very convenient to use vouchers.

Now that they have really seen the development of Huidun City, the environment here is very different from the Huidun City they had in mind.

And their ability to live here in the future will also give them more beautiful expectations for their future life.

The carriage arrived at the city gate. At this time, there were not only the city guards guarding the gate, but also a gentleman holding an account book and doing some calculations.

When the Blackwood Gang's convoy stopped, the city guards did not come up to check. Instead, the gentleman who was sitting and keeping accounts stood up and brought his men to the front of the convoy to inquire.

"What business is your convoy here for? How much cargo have you brought? What is the value of the cargo?"

The leader who was being questioned was a little confused, not knowing why this person was asking these questions.

But he quickly replied:

"Well, we are the Black Wood Gang from Kailan City. We came to Huidun City mainly to save money. We also brought a few carts of Kailan orchids to see if Huidun City can sell them."

When talking about the sales of Kailanhua, the young man's face showed excitement.

Due to the strong performance of perfume during this period, the value of Kailan Flower, which was once the cash cow of Kailan City, has been declining again and again.

As the city lord, Kevlar has his own sales channels and is not afraid of the impact of perfume, but ordinary flower farmers like them are in trouble.

In fact, originally their Black Wood Gang did not rely on the sale of armor orchids as their main source of income, but these days Hausen is trying to reform the gang, so a lot of the money they made in the past by cheating on their consciences can no longer be made, and the business of armor orchids has become their life-saving straw.

After listening to the younger brother's introduction, the accountant asked the younger brother to take him to see the goods.

Although he didn't know what he was going to do, since Monty didn't say anything, he still took the accountant to see it.

After the accountant counted the number of Kailan flowers, he compared it with the price of Kailan flowers recorded in his account book. After some calculations, he finally wrote a note to the younger brother:

"Here, this is the tax you have to pay for this batch of goods entering the city."

Then seeing that the younger brother was a little dazed, he thought of something, and then asked someone to go to the chair where he was sitting and bring a copy of the latest price list of goods.

"I forgot about this. This is your first time here. Here is the latest price list of various commodities. When you go into the city to sell your goods, you can go to the city's exchange. You will not lose money if you follow the prices here."

The young man who came forward to talk to him really couldn't make the decision, so he went straight to Mondi's carriage and told him what happened here.

After hearing this, Mondi asked his younger brother to pay the tax and then went into the city immediately.

After the Black Wood Gang's convoy passed by, the merchant convoy waiting behind them took over.

Then the accountant followed the same process, making some calculations, and then gave the caravan a tax slip.

However, this time the leader of the caravan did not accept it directly. Instead, he took the price list of goods he took away last time and argued with the accountant, saying that he had collected too much tax this time.

Of course, the accountant did not indulge him, but took out the latest price list.

After looking at the goods, the businessman found that the goods he brought today were not as popular as last time. He immediately remembered that when he came to the exchange last time, the staff reminded him that he could leave a liaison here, but he refused at that time.

Thinking of this, the businessman wanted to slap himself.

These things are not mentioned here. After Mondi and his companions entered the city, he called the leader of the convoy and said:

"I'll leave the things here to you later. I'll take Tasha and the others to check out the house in the city now."

The little brother gave Mondi a nasty smile, and then said:

"Don't worry, Digo. Leave everything here to me."

Monty nodded, and then took Tasha and her mother away from the convoy.

After Mondi's carriage left, the leading brother called on the convoy to move on.

Mondi's main purpose of returning to Huidun City this time is to make a performance report to Huidun, while the other members of the team will go to the inn that has been booked long ago.

Most of the girls brought by the convoy were willing to work in the textile factory. Hausen had arranged everything for them in the past few days, so they were sent directly to the factory opened by Brusto in Huidun City.

A small number of people who had not yet made up their minds followed the convoy and stayed in the inn.

However, they could only arrange their own affairs in the future. Tasha and her mother sat in the carriage and watched the carriage leave the team and come to the residential streets in the city.

When the carriage stopped, Monty got out first, and then took Tasha's hand and let her get out.

Monty pointed to the second-floor residential corridor in front of him:

"This will be your and your aunt's home from now on. Come in quickly and I'll show you around."

This house was not bought by Mondi and his team, but was allocated to them as underground workers. It can be said that this is Mondi’s home in Huidun City.

Tasha also heard clearly the conversation between Mondi and the leader. She knew that this should be her brother Mondi's home in Huidun City.

The meaning of Monty bringing her here is self-evident.

Just when Tasha was nervously thinking that Monty was going to confess his love to her and propose to her, Monty held her hand and said:

"Tasha, you are the mistress here from now on. Can you help me protect this home?"

Tasha nodded shyly.

Monty lifted her lowered head and kissed her forehead.

Monty did not propose to Tasha directly because of his special status and he is still an underground worker.

As long as they don't get married, those who want to threaten or retaliate against him will only think that Tasha is just his lover and not his wife.

The two hugged each other tenderly for a while, and then Monty found an excuse to go out.

After going out, Mondy immediately entered the mood of an underground worker. He put on his coat inside out, then pushed down his hat and pulled up his scarf, completely covering his appearance.

It's not that he was being overly cautious; it was just a bit of disguise that an underground worker should have when meeting his superiors.
