The middle-aged businessman looked carefully at the young man wearing large sunglasses in front of him. His heart is far less relaxed than it appears on the surface.
He noticed the young man as soon as he got on the plane. He was accompanied by four bodyguards at such a young age. He was probably the heir apparent of some wealthy family, so he was interested in chatting and making friends.
The other party covered his appearance with sunglasses and acted very low-key, which made him take another high look. The most indispensable thing in Ice Blue City is the playboys, who rely on the power of their families to be arrogant and have their eyes set above their heads.
This young man does not have any dandy temperament. He is polite, modest and pragmatic. He is very likely to be a child of a practical family.
Generally speaking, this kind of person is called a "rich man". He is a person who comes from a superior family, but can remain simple, down-to-earth, and humbly learn. He is a person who can achieve great things.
The middle-aged businessman saw this and even wanted to make friends.
As long as you can climb up to a wealthy family and get the real appreciation of the other party, you will skyrocket.
Chen Xing, who has been born in three generations, naturally sees the little calculations in the middle-aged businessman's mind clearly and clearly. Otherwise, why would he pretend to be naive if he is the prime minister?
After some conversation, Chen Xing understood the thoughts of the lower-level businessmen. Because of the problem of poor information, low-level businessmen and well-informed big businessmen have different information. Generally, they can only judge the direction of the wind through the general environment.
In the eyes of the lower-level businessmen, Ice Blue City is rich and powerful and has the most powerful people in charge. The five eastern countries are rich in resources and have large populations. The two are on par with each other. The war will definitely be protracted and turn into a war of attrition.
To rearm the troops, a large amount of arms is needed.
Longhe Industry's output is limited, and it supplies both the south and the north, so there will definitely be a long queue of orders.
At this time, a large amount of foreign equipment in stock is needed. Lower-level merchants usually formed small teams to hoard armaments. Purchase guns and ammunition outside, transport them to the sales location in advance, rent a warehouse for storage, and supply them first when a large number of orders appear.
Chen Xing's plan is to divide the three thousand elites into hundreds of small business groups and disperse them into the Tianqin Principality. Because large business groups have many people and big goals, they can easily become the target of key inspections, while small business groups are scattered and scattered, and as long as they spend a little money, they usually won't be investigated too strictly.
During the chat, the middle-aged man hinted several times that he wanted to exchange contact information with Chen Xing, but Chen Xing pretended to be stupid and ignored him.
On the one hand, exchanging contact information may expose his identity. He is doing this in secret this time, so the less people know about it, the better. On the other hand, the other party's identity is too low, and it means little for him to make friends.
The middle-aged businessman failed to make several hints and saw that Chen Xing had no intention of making friends, so he stopped asking for trouble and returned to his seat to rest. This kind of conversation between tourists is just like meeting by chance. If there is fate, they will make friends. If there is no fate, they will part ways. It is very normal.
"Sir, would you like some wine?"
A sweet-looking flight attendant pushed a trolley over, with a dazzling array of wines on it, exuding a jewel-like luster.
"Sir, would you like some lunch? Today we have grilled lobster with cheese and soy sauce seaweed soup."
Followed by another flight attendant, there were various fresh seafood dishes on the trolley. Business class specialties, free drinks, and seafood dinners, priced at ten gold coins per person, are already included in the ticket price.
"Have a glass of sweet wine and a fried fish with lemon juice..."
Chen Xing ordered a few things and ate them by himself.
In the corner, Trilis, dressed as a guard, sat quietly. Under the influence of the resistance field, the flight attendant completely ignored this corner, as if it was empty and there was no one there.
However, this resistance field will not affect Chen Xing. He can clearly feel Cuilis in the corner behind him.
I have to say, Cuili
Si is a woman who can "sit still" very well. From the moment she got on the plane, she sat motionless, as usual. She sat there, thinking about nothing, doing nothing, and sat there all day long.
They were used to getting along like this. Sometimes when Chen Xing was reading information or writing, she would sit beside him quietly, neither disturbing nor leaving.
After eating, Chen Xing changed his position in the corner, leaned against Cuilis, and had a good sleep.
About ten hours later, the plane arrived in Shin-Edo. Looking from the window, Shin-Edo at night looks like a colorful flower, bright and charming.
Houses in Shin-Edo are generally low-rise, mostly two-story wooden houses, with only tall buildings erected in the central area. There are more than 7 million Ai people in New Edo. The small Toshu was once an earthquake zone, so the Ai people were accustomed to low wooden houses. Even if they moved to the central wilderness where earthquakes never occurred, they still maintained their previous habits.
"Dear passengers, hello, our flight has arrived at its destination, Shin-Edo."
"New Edo is a relic of history, the flower of Xiaodongzhou culture blooming on the barren land..."
The plane landed slowly amid the flight attendant's announcement. Then the five people got off the plane and left the airport.
Colorful light shines into your eyes, as if you are entering a forest of lights, with billboards, light boxes, lanterns, and paper fences illuminated by lights.
Store clerks in different costumes stood in front of the small buildings close together, shouting hard at the bustling pedestrians.
“Caviar sushi, charcoal grilled beef, eel hand rolls...”
"Red rock volcanic stone dry-roasted shells..."
"There's a big sale of green plum wine in the Eastern Continent. It's only seven coppers a bottle!"
"The big luck platter will improve your luck and win your soul!"
Chen Xing randomly picked a small izakaya with private rooms as a temporary place to stay.
Izakaya is one of the food cultures of the people. It is usually a family unit and can only entertain one table of guests and a few scattered regulars at the same time.
"Guest sir, where are you from?"
The MILF boss lady poured iced barley tea while chatting with Chen Xing.
Customers in Shin-Edo come from all over the world, so the store habitually inquires in order to adjust the taste preferences of people in different regions.
"Coming from the north." Chen Xing said.
"The north, is it the Red Country? I heard that there is a lot of chaos over there now, with wars happening every day."
"Absolutely." "I really hope the war will end soon." "Yeah."
After a useless conversation, the landlady went to the kitchen to prepare dishes.
"You two..." Chen Xing glanced at the Dragon Scale Guards and the Imperial Guard officers who were disguised as mercenaries. The two men immediately stretched their necks, as if they were obeying orders respectfully.
"You two split up, get familiar with the environment first, find a good place to stay, get to know relevant businessmen, and wait for my instructions."
"Yes!" they both said in unison.
After a while, the proprietress served dishes one after another, including various seafood sashimi, grilled food, sushi, and thick soup. A large table was set up.
The two officers ate a little and then got up and left, leaving Chen Xing, Aiyin and Cuilisi at the scene.
Aiyin was a reformer and didn't eat, but Cuilisi just sat quietly without moving her chopsticks.
"Why don't you eat something?" Chen Xing asked Cuilisi.
"I don't like eating with outsiders, especially men." Cuilis said in Chen Xing's ear.
There was a large table of food, and Chen Xing had to eat it alone. But he couldn't eat much,
Just eat a little of everything.
"Is it not to your liking?" The lady boss seemed a little disappointed when paying the bill. She probably cooked a table of dishes carefully, but the customer didn't take a few bites.
"The food is good and delicious, but maybe I'm a little tired after a day of flying and have no appetite." Chen Xing comforted.
"What a pity..." the landlady said with some regret, "I'll give you a discount!"
"No, you did a good job, we will come again next time." Chen Xing paid the full amount. For kind people, kindness will naturally be rewarded.
After leaving the izakaya, Chen Xing walked on the street with Cuilisi and Aiyin.
"The Ying people are more than meticulous, but not innovative enough. The structure is always too small and they cannot step into the realm of Zhouhe. They can only be reduced to tools." Cuilisi suddenly said.
"Well..." Chen Xing thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
Triris's words are very informative.
One is that there is no supremely powerful person among the Ying people.
Whale swallowing and Zhouhe are king-level realms. Whale swallowing corresponds to the little king, and Zhouhe corresponds to the big king.
The second is that because the Ying people do not have the most powerful people, they can only rely on the major forces and be used as tools.
Shin-Edo is the only place in the world where gambling is legal, but thirty percent of the proceeds must be turned over to the Committee for Human Survival.
The third is to say that understanding the realm of universal unity is closely related to thinking patterns.
If people with corresponding strength hear this sentence, they will definitely have a lot of insights. It's a pity that Chen Xing's path of cultivation is a different path, which is very different from that of ordinary evolvers, so it is of little significance.
Chen Xing once asked Cuilisi how she allowed Arqiaomu to cross the realm, and whether she could also let herself cross the realm.
Triris said that Arqiaomu gained the Balrog's understanding of the chaotic magic energy from a drop of her blood, thereby mastering the magic energy and becoming a magic warrior.
But Chen Xing couldn't do this. First of all, Arqiaomu and Cuili have the same gender, so there will be no male-female rejection. Secondly, Arqiaomu has fused the heart of the Abyss Demonic Ox. It is a homologous creature with the devil and will not be affected by the transformation of magic energy. Lost mind.
Moreover, magic power is meaningless to Chen Xing. Chen Xing has already entered the Holy Realm and possesses Yuling, while Aqiaomu is stuck in the Great Guard. In a sense, it is also another way.
To put it simply, Cuilisi can make a woman who meets the mental and physical requirements advance from a great guard to a magic warrior, and she can do nothing about Chen Xing's situation.
In addition, Cuilis also told Chen Xing that her blood can be used to make rune circuits for weapons, adding magic power to the weapons.
If Chen Xing has time, he can find a legendary craftsman to come back and modify the mana hunting angel for him to improve the hunting ability of top powerhouses.
Now that the war is imminent, Chen Xing has no time to find someone, so he can only put the matter aside for now.
Because Cuillis also said that in terms of personal force, she is enough. In fact, the subtext of this sentence is that even if Chen Xing's personal strength improves one or two levels, it will not have much impact on the overall situation.
While thinking, the three of them walked across a small red wooden bridge. The river below was steaming hot, and the steam came out of the wooden boards underfoot, giving off a faint smell of sulfur.
This is hot spring water diverted from the red rock volcano. It is divided into several small rivers and flows through the entire Shin-Edo.
It's a pity that it's summer now. If you come here in winter, the snowy scenery and the steaming hot spring river will make people feel like a fairyland.
"Well, the environment is good. When we conquer Hanling, we can also build a hot spring palace on Nolan Snow Mountain." Cuilis said.
This is the ruler's perspective. When he sees something he likes, he either snatches it or builds it directly.
