"So what do you think the third king's purpose is now?"
"It's unclear. It may be to become a world hegemon, or it may have other purposes. It's hard to say. In short, they are neither enemies nor friends now. We must make plans early."
"It appears that things are much more complicated than previously thought."
"Well, so you'd better stop thinking so much."
That afternoon, Li Ming and Jiang Wei returned to their rooms to pack their luggage, while Tianpeng also returned to his residence to pack.
Juecheng saw Tianpeng cleaning up and asked, "Are you going on a long trip?"
"Ah, I was just going to tell you that we are going to the front lines of the Imperial Capital to participate in the Imperial Capital's crusade." Tianpeng said while packing his clothes.
"Are you going to fight? How long will it take?"
"It's not clear yet. You should stay in Wangcheng during this period. I will go find Cai Huadao later and ask him to help arrange a high-paying job for you."
"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean? Just send me away like this?" Juecheng said unhappily.
"That's not what I mean. It's just that the war front is very dangerous, so you'd better not go there."
"Dangerous? Is it more dangerous than underground?"
"I don't know about this, but there shouldn't be any danger underground. After all, we have many allies."
"Then it's over. I've survived the dangers underground, let alone the surface. You take me with you, I just want to see the excitement."
"That's it. Then I'll go find Li Ming and discuss it with her."
Tianpeng temporarily put down his luggage and walked out of the room.
"I'll go with you." Juecheng chased after him.
A few minutes later, Tianpeng and Juechen arrived at Li Ming's residence.
In the living room, Tianpeng told Li Ming Juechen's thoughts.
Li Ming refused: "It's safer for you to stay in Wangcheng. It's better not to go to the front line."
"Li Ming, why are you so unreasonable? I have no acquaintances in Wangcheng, so I will be bored to death. You should take me to the front line. I will definitely not hold you back. You don't know my escape speed yet. ?"
"That's true, but there is still a certain risk. Su Kouye told me that there are two people in Imperial City who can use super speed, one is Xiaotian and the other is Lu Bingfeng. They are both very strong."
"You are worrying too much. I don't participate in the battle. I only watch the show. I will be very careful."
"Li Ming, just let him go, otherwise it will really be difficult for him. After all, he has been following us for several months and has already become accustomed to being with us." Tianpeng advised.
"Oh, that's fine. But you have to be careful at all times. I don't have the energy to take care of you." Li Ming replied.
"Don't worry, I will definitely be able to do it with ease. You can fight your battles with peace of mind, and I can watch my show with peace of mind."
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Wei, Liming, Tianpeng, and Juecheng got on a military helicopter at the gate of Beicheng.
"Mom, goodbye." Jiang Wei kept waving to Cui Wei.
"You must be careful." Cui Wei also waved goodbye.
"Buzzing Weng..." The helicopter slowly rose and flew towards the north.
Cui Wei and Gu Yuxi watched everyone leave until the helicopter disappeared at the end of the sky.
Cui Wei's eyes were very moist, and two lines of tears fell down.
"Have you been holding back your tears until now?" Gu Yuxi said.
"I didn't expect Jiang Wei to go to the front line again just after she came back. Her childhood shouldn't have been like this." Cui Wei said distressedly.
"That's true, but Jiang Wei seems to be enjoying it. Maybe she also has fighting blood flowing in her bones."
"I just want her to be safe forever."
"Don't worry, she will be fine." Gu Yuxi coaxed.
"By the way, Yuxi, can you do me a favor?" Cui Wei asked.
"Just tell me."
"Help me with special training."
"Special training? Did I hear that right?"
"I find that Jiang Wei admires Li Ming more and more."
"How many times have I told you, don't compare yourself to Li Ming. She has her own characteristics, and you have yours. You don't have to go to special training because of this. Do you want to live a rough military career?" Gu Yuxi objected.
"Actually, it's not all because of Li Ming. I also want to become stronger. I've been idle for more than half a year. Even if I don't fight, I can't be too weak."
"This is true. It is better to be strong than weak. After all, the world is not peaceful. Who knows whether Wangcheng can maintain its prosperity forever."
"Then let's start customizing the plan today, master." Cui Wei smiled.
"No, please don't call me that. I can't stand it and I don't like it."
"Then isn't your name Master Jiang Feng?"
"Yes, if seniority is used for seniority, I should call you master, but you still call me master. Isn't it very confusing?"
"Okay, then I'll call you Teacher Gu." Cui Wei continued to smile.
"It's better to call him something else. Just call him whatever you usually call him. Besides, Jiang Feng and I don't call him master when we are alone. I only call him master in front of outsiders."
"Oh, so that's how it is?" Cui Wei seemed to have thought of some question, but she didn't know what it was.
"Well, let's go back and make a plan for you tonight." Gu Yuxi seemed to intentionally interrupt the previous topic.
In fact, Jiang Feng and Gu Yuxi were very close to each other, and they were caught eating together by outsiders many times. Jiang Feng was afraid that there would be rumors, so he asked Gu Yuxi to call him master in front of outsiders.
Therefore, it is already known to everyone that Gu Yuxi is Jiang Feng's apprentice. Even if the two get closer, no one with ulterior motives will make a fuss about it.
After Su Kouye finished dealing with Liming's matter, he held another high-level meeting in the city. This meeting lasted for an afternoon and evening.
All the senior executives didn't even have food to eat and were in meetings all the time.
Although they were hungry and exhausted, no one dared to slack off. They still maintained a good spirit and held the meeting seriously.
Because everyone knows what Su Kouye is like. He is much stricter than Jiang Feng. If anyone doesn't take the meeting seriously, it will be a disaster.
In addition to solving Wangcheng's recent administrative problems, this meeting also solved people's livelihood issues, that is, demarcating several areas in Xilu District to start a new round of residential area construction.
Over the past year, Wangcheng's population has been expanding, the first batch of babies have been born, and the housing problem has become increasingly tense.
Xiao Yu showed everyone the latest invention at the meeting, the coagulant agent, which can quickly condense the molecules of concrete to achieve rapid solidification.
Before the end of the world, it would take at least one or two years to build a building. It's not that there aren't enough manpower, it's that the concrete needs time to dry and solidify. After the end of the world, concrete only needs to be mixed with a certain amount of black iron water to achieve rapid solidification. The building that originally took more than a year to build took less than a month.
However, Cai Huadao had previously misappropriated a large amount of black iron water inventory in order to build the Xilu Wall. This has resulted in the unsatisfactory construction speed of ordinary housing, and the construction of many housing has been put on hold.
Xiao Yu's invention solved an urgent need. This lectin agent is cheap and can be mass-produced. With this thing, there is no need to use black iron water to build buildings. This will greatly save Wangcheng's blue ore consumption, which is a great achievement.
In addition to solving the housing problem, the meeting also formulated a brand new project, which is to build the third city wall of Wangcheng.
Once this city wall is completed, the total area of Wangcheng will be greatly expanded, covering the entire city of Jiangmeng City, with an average diameter of more than 100 kilometers. Wangcheng will become the largest city in the country, larger than the Imperial Palace.
This third city wall is named the Mayan Wall.
Wangcheng will invest 1.5 million workers working day and night to build this giant Mayan city wall and strive to complete the construction within a month.
On the other side, at the junction of Hedong and Xichuan, a caravan passed by a medium-sized city, Longshan City.
Longshan City is an independent city, and its power leaders also responded to the call and brought some troops to join the Liu Chuan Alliance to participate in the crusade against the imperial capital. Therefore, the current strength of Longshan City is only half of its original strength, and the city lord is not here, only the deputy city lord is in charge.
The deputy city lord's name is Chen Minfeng. She has a fair appearance. She is a talented administrative woman who was once the wife of the city lord. She is a charming woman. Because she was dissatisfied with her husband being a prostitute outside, she implemented a multi-partner marriage system in Longshan City. So Chen Minfeng now has multiple husbands, and his private life is a bit chaotic.
The city lord knew that Chen Minfeng was like this but still let her continue to serve as deputy city lord, because Chen Minfeng was a talented woman, and under her management, Longshan City was run well.
Today, when Chen Minfeng heard that someone from the Cross Chamber of Commerce was passing through this place, he paid great attention to it. She opened the city gates and personally led people to welcome their arrival, and then set up a banquet to entertain them.
At the banquet, Xia Long, the leader of the Cross Chamber of Commerce, was very happy. He said to Chen Minfeng: "I have traveled to many cities. Most people put us in buffer towns to entertain us, but you took us directly into the city. This sincerity is really impressive." I am very touched and on behalf of all members of the Chamber of Commerce, I would like to express my gratitude to you.”
Chen Minfeng also picked up the wine glass and saluted: "I have heard that the Cross Chamber of Commerce has a good reputation, so naturally I cannot neglect you. In my city, you can rest assured to purchase."
In fact, Chen Minfeng has also done some research. He knows that the Cross Chamber of Commerce has strong financial resources and often purchases special products at considerable prices.
Chen Minfeng and Xia Long chatted and laughed happily, toasted many times, and drank it down every time.
Xia Long appreciates the sincerity of the other party very much, and the other party is also a woman.
"Deputy City Master Chen, we are here today. We specially provide you with some purple ore. The original price was 100 per gram, but now it is only 70 per gram. This kind of discount is the largest so far in our Cross Chamber of Commerce."
"Oh? Is that really true?"
Chen Minfeng had already heard about the purple mine. This kind of ore is more advanced than red ore. At the same refining level, the attack power of purple ore is much higher than that of red ore. However, this kind of ore is very rare, and no such purple ore has been found anywhere. Therefore, the value of purple ore is very huge, and everyone wants to own it.
