Chapter 140: The Difficult Proble Within the Capital
slammed his wine cup down viciously “The Azure Heaven Northern Palace? I’ve long since heard that they behave incredibly atrociously Supposedly, the disciples beneath their banner often co theeration, but it seeerations, but they were actually quite conservative”
“Younger brother, don’t beup and I’ve already noted these fellows There will be a day in which I willChen smiled, “They’re all a bunch of minor characters and clowns, unable to e Brother Ye, you don’t need to worry about this I can handle a ser brother, with your potential, if you can enter the Precious Tree Sect, then you’ll be able to stomp on these bastards however you’d like in the future”
Jiang Chen nodded noncolass to say, “Co and eating their fill, Ye Rong said, “Brother, since you’ve just arrived at the capital, there are s that I must now detail clearly to you”
“Go ahead”
“First, you are uest and not my follower Because of this, you can’t live within the manor In order to live within the manor, you must be someone in the uests are still outsiders and thus youChen truly hadn’t thought of staying at the manor With so many in his party, it was obviously an inconvenience, and there wasn’tshelter underneath soe for a house and a yard in so Chen’s h this was the Skylaurel Kingdom, he didn’t think that he would be unable to purchase a house
Ye Rong rubbed his nose and smiled ruefully, “It’s actually not that simple You can’t buy a house just because you want to buy one”
“Oh? Can it be that an inch of land within the Skylaurel Kingdoold? The land is so valuable that even houses are selling at astronomical prices?”
“It’s not that the land is at an astronomical price I believe that wouldn’t be a problem with your financial capability It’s more that you can’t buy a house or dom just because you want to A certain level of status is needed for certain levels of houses Your status was vaunted in the Eastern Kingdodo Chen finally understood after Ye Rong’s explanations
There was a clear hierarchy of status and rank when doing business within the Skylaurel Kingdom One wouldn’t be able to buy a luxurious house without a corresponding status
Jiang Chen understood matters when put this way
This was actually sidom Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to take up residence within luxurious locales Even movers and shakers within business were absolutely barred fro the areas reserved for nobles unless they had a corresponding status or awe inspiring achievements
This wasn’t a defined rule within the Eastern Kingdom, but cliques were formed on the basis of these unspoken rules
The Skylaurel Kingdodom had and had written it clearly into law
Your status dictated what kind of house you could live in, with no way for anyone to overstep this boundary You wouldn’t be able to buy another house with all the money in the world
At the heart of it, the Skylaurel Kingdododom had directly promised a position of duke of first rank to hidom, not even a prince could help hi dododom The rules here were also much more cruel
“Brother Ye, then what avenues exist to obtain status?”
“There are quite a feays Holding civil orIt’s faster to advance through these two methods, but the level of competition there is also the fiercest”
“Apart froanizations associated with sects Pillto do with training have large amounts of quotas for nobles The Precious Tree Sect has the four great sites within the Skylaurel Kingdoe nureat sites?”
“Yes, you’ve already met the Azure Heaven Northern Palace, they’re one of the four There’s also the Azure Heaven Southern Palace, the Qingyang Palace, and the Myriad Treasures Palace that reat sites”
“The Azure Heaven Northern Palace, and there’s also the Azure Heaven Southern Palace?”
“Yes, the Northern Palace controls the western region, the Southern Palace controls the southern region The Qingyang Valley exercises control over the central region of the kingdom and the Myriad Treasures Palace directly set up shop within the capital”
Ye Rong explained patiently, “How about this, I have some personal connections within the Azure Heaven Southern Palace and can get a noble’s position for you However, I can, at h personal connections It’ll be harder to obtain any rank higher than that”
The nobles of the Skylaurel Kingdom were divided into nine ranks
The ninth rank was the lowest and the first rank the highest
A prince like Ye Rong was naturally at the level of first rank If he could become the crown prince, then he would break free from the hierarchy of ranks and would instead become of the royal rank
“The Azure Heaven Southern Palace?” Although Jiang Chen knew that the Azure Heaven Southern Palace and the Azure Heaven Northern Palace were two different forces, he still felt slightly ticked off when he heard this na your connections I’ll talk a walk in the capital tomorrow and understand the situation In the meantime, I’ll take some time to faings”
