Chapter 212
Dongfang Bubai was actually stunned, just like that, letting Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo pull her toward the private room.
Watching the women leave in their respective groups, Jiang Chen could not help but smile.
However,
there was one person who had not left, and that was Little Dragon Maiden.
Jiang Chen also knew that Little Dragon Maiden had no interest in these things; the only reason she had followed along was simply because everyone else had come.
At this moment, in the inner city,
only Li Li Hanyi remained on Cangshan Mountain, cultivating and consolidating her realm.
Following that,
after Jiang Chen spent a while wandering the main hall with Little Dragon Maiden, he returned to the private room where Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo and the others were staying.
As for Yin Yin Luoxia,
she remained in the main hall.
Nowadays,
although the gambling house did not only feature poker and mahjong,
in order to spread these two games as quickly as possible and thereby highlight the difference between the Snow Moon City gambling house and the others,
for these three days, regardless of whether those who chose to play these games won or lost, the gambling house would not take a commission from them.
Furthermore, on every table, introductions to the rules of poker and mahjong had long since been placed in advance.
If they still did not understand, they could directly seek out Snow Moon City disciples to ask.
Moreover,
Jiang Chen had already spoken with Yin Yin Luoxia.
Even in the future, for those who came to the gambling house to play, they would only take a five percent commission from the winners at the end, which would serve as the way for the gambling house to earn a profit.
Although it was not much.
But Jiang Chen's original purpose in building the gambling house was not for profit, but to increase the popularity of Snow Moon City.
What's more,
if more people came, it would inevitably boost the economy of Snow Moon City.
Therefore, the profit from running the gambling house might not be very high, but looking at it as a whole, it was actually quite good.
If he wanted to make money,
Jiang Chen had countless ways.
Just like those glass lamps; the profit they would bring to Snow Moon City in the future would absolutely far exceed that of the gambling house, and even far exceed all of Snow Moon City's previous income.
Some things,
many times, are only feared when compared.
Once other cities witnessed the prosperous scene of Snow Moon City illuminated by countless glass lamps, would you say they would install them or not?
By then,
even ordinary families with decent conditions would likely install one or two in their own homes.
And if ordinary families installed them,
then the families of the powerful and wealthy would naturally go without saying; they would certainly choose the most beautiful ones.
Then there would be Tianqi City and the Northern Li Imperial Family; that was the real big prize.
If even the officials below could install glass lamps, then as the Northern Li Imperial Family, how could they justify being outdone by their subjects?
Furthermore,
by that time, even if the Imperial Family worried that such extravagance would be criticized by the world, they would likely have no choice but to install them.
Because the officials below would find ways to force them to install them, even if it meant making them pay for the Imperial Family.
After all, as a subject, who would dare to decorate their home more luxuriously than the Imperial Palace?
But such good things,
if they didn't use them, they wouldn't be satisfied!
Therefore,
Jiang Chen didn't even need to think much; he estimated that before long, all the cities in the Northern Li Dynasty would likely be installed with these glass lamps.
Even,
if Snow Moon City had no intention of selling these glass lamps to the outside world, they might even come knocking on the door themselves!
However, regarding these things,
Jiang Chen did not intend to intervene.
Since Yin Yin Luoxia could think of using this glass to manufacture small trinkets for Sang Sang and the others to sell in Snow Moon City, she would inevitably think of more places in the future.
Even if she didn't think of it by then, it wouldn't be too late for him to offer suggestions to her.
At this moment, in Jiang Chen's heart,
what he cared about most was how to attract more people to come to Snow Moon City, so he could obtain more rewards.
Originally,
Jiang Chen thought that after his cultivation reached the Divine Wandering Mysterious Realm, he should be considered worry-free in this world; even if he encountered an opponent he couldn't defeat, he could just hide.
But ever since he met Sang Sang, these thoughts of his began to change slowly.
The strength of the Divine Wandering Mysterious Realm was far from enough!
Even the Immortal Realm might not be enough.
Since a figure like Haotian had appeared in the Great Tang Dynasty, who knew if there weren't old monsters he didn't know about lurking in the shadows of the Great Song and Great Ming dynasties?
And then there was this Northern Li Dynasty.
Don't look at the fact that currently, in the Northern Li martial arts world, only the Immortal Mo Yi was known to everyone as an existence above the Divine Wandering Mysterious Realm.
But anyone with slightly well-informed sources knew that behind Snow Moon City, there was actually an existence whose strength had reached beyond the Divine Wandering Mysterious Realm.
However,
Jiang Chen, who knew the plot, obviously knew much more.
That was that both the Immortal Mo Yi and Li Li Hanyi's master, Li Li Changsheng, also had masters!
Although the masters of Mo Yi and Qi Qi Tianchen had already passed away, who knew what kind of powerhouses were hidden in their sect, Mount Mount Huanglong.
And then there was Li Li Changsheng's master, Su Su Baiyi, whose strength must be far greater than Li Li Changsheng's!
In the original world,
although Su Su Baiyi had never appeared, he had been mentioned; the other party was currently guarding the Northern Frontier in place of Su Su Suomo, and by now, it had been over two hundred years.
Up until now,
Jiang Chen still did not know what this so-called Northern Frontier actually was!
However, what was certain was that it was definitely not the place where the Northern Li Dynasty bordered other dynasties.
Because according to what Jiang Chen knew,
the Northern Frontier was currently guarded by the Su family, the Southern Frontier by the Lu family, the Western Frontier by the Ye family, and the Eastern Frontier by the Mo family!
If he hadn't guessed wrong,
this Su family should be the family where Li Li Changsheng's master, Su Su Baiyi, was located.
As for who the Lu family and the Ye family were,
even now, Jiang Chen was not clear.
But the Mo family—
Mo Yi had been staying on Penglaixiandao in the East Sea all this time!
Jiang Chen did not care whether Mo Yi was indeed this so-called person from the Mo family, but there was one point he had never been able to figure out.
That was that Mo Yi had stayed on Penglaixiandao for many years, yet the other party had never had the thought of leaving!
Jiang Chen asked himself,
if it were him, if he had stayed on Penglaixiandao for such a long time without finding a way to save his sister, he would definitely have left Penglaixiandao.
After all, besides Penglaixiandao, there were countless unknown places in this world.
But Mo Yi had not!
The other party seemed to firmly believe that on this Penglaixiandao, there must be a way to resurrect his sister!
