Chapter 313: Yukun's Visit
Or for many other big empires, the perception of the Easy Empire is limited to this little point in the game. And Lao Jiu's identity in reality, for a huge imperial machine, that is, an individual nouveau riche, cannot create any threat at all.
And Lao Jiu's achievements today are completely based on this point. He steadily developed the economy, developed his strength in a low-key manner, and tried to avoid the eyes of the world. From the withdrawal of the Xiaoyao Basin and the defeat of the North and South Boundary Rivers, Lao Jiu seems to have been forced out of the stage of history.
However, what Lao Jiu did next just showed that the last hole card of the Easy Empire, and relying on, was the opening of the Qilin Trade Base! Whether it is from military defense or economic investment, Lao Jiu has always conveyed a message to everyone.
That is, these are the only things left of the Empire today. If there are still people who don't want to leave a way for the Empire to live, then the Empire will have to make a final resistance. Whether in terms of economic strength or combat effectiveness, no empire is willing to fight to the death with the Empire.
Not to mention Lao Jiu's personal strength, his undead legion, coupled with the mysterious space equipment, and some artifacts that Lao Jiu possesses, are enough to bring down any empire, which is something that all empires don't want to face.
After all, for a casual player with no roots and no scruples, no one can guess what decision will be made. Lao Jiu's setting fire to the mountain at the beginning is the best interpretation. For a casual player like him, if he loses all the containment, it is the most terrifying.
But in addition to Huaxia, what empire can know the true background of Lao Jiu? Even the last time the fleet of the Empire that never set was destroyed, they only put forward all kinds of conjectures, and there was no positive result, and they were even more convinced that it was the hidden strength that belonged to Huaxia.
And this time the Asian empire collectively besieged China, and it was indispensable to operate behind the scenes of the Rubu Empire. Of course, the shadow of the M Empire must be indispensable in this. However, as an attacked China, there are still its own factors.
It is a large land and a large population. Not to mention that the economic strength is firmly at the top, even the military power is not comparable to that of any empire. In particular, the development of the game draws on a lot of Chinese civilization inheritance, and has a strong epitome of Chinese civilization.
Today's Huaxia is not the Huaxia of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is impossible to be regarded as a sleeping dragon, but a truly awakened dragon, a super dragon with strong combat effectiveness. This is also the main reason that forced the surrounding empires to join forces.
Because in the face of this super dragon, there is no empire that can resist its advance, and a joint resistance is the best choice.
In the cold soldier period, the most serious consumption of wars is not materials and money. Because in the cold war in the game, the most serious consumption is people. This is also the reason why the game does not limit the enrollment of the population for the first three years.
Lao Jiu now cares about international wars every day and understands some of the most basic situations. What he cares about the most is the daily consumption of NPC warriors. Not to mention the whole world, it is the war of Asian countries, and the total number of NPC soldiers killed in battle every day exceeds one million.
This made Lao Jiuchang feel sorry, because he woke up late after all, resulting in the current population of the Carefree Empire being less than one billion. If the war really affects the Xiaoyao Empire, then the consumption of the Xiaoyao Empire's army will definitely exceed his imagination.
This made Lao Jiu, who had stopped training in the army, have to change his original plan, start recruiting a large number of soldiers, and train within the empire. At the same time, the people are also encouraged to improve their own strength, so that they can recruit troops in the future, and there will not be too much difference in rank.
Just when the war of aggression against China had just lasted for a month, the economic consumption of some small empires, as well as the consumption of various materials, were a bit in short supply, and the Qilin trading base at this time became the best logistics supply station.
Whether it is food supply, daily necessities, medicine supply, fresh water replenishment, and equipment*. The Empire has directly become the largest supplier of war, and as a result, a steady stream of gold coins has begun to flow to the Empire.
At the same time, the Chinese Empire, represented by the Yu family, also found Lao Jiu. At this time, Lao Jiu was still on Canglong Island, working as a coolie for the fleet of the Empire. After receiving Long Sifeng's message, he began to rush back.
Originally, Lao Jiu planned to let Long Sifeng talk to them directly, but this time it was Yu Shengxiang's father Yu Kun who came. It seems that he was afraid that Lao Jiu would deal with it, so he specially asked him to come over, and he had to talk to Lao Jiu in person, which made Lao Jiu very helpless.
After all, no matter how you say it, it is also your own quasi-father-in-law, and it is impossible for Lao Jiu to deal with it casually, because they know very well that Lao Jiu is a person, and he is still relatively soft in terms of face, and he is never stingy with his own people. And the place where they met this time was the City Lord's Mansion of the trade base.
"What are you doing here? I'm afraid I'll cheat your father! As soon as he entered the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Lao Jiu saw Yu Shengxiang and Long Sifeng coming towards him.
"What are you talking about? Occupy someone's daughter, and don't allow other people's father and daughter to meet? Do you know how long it's been since she's seen her father? How long has it been since you came home? Do you still have a conscience? Before Yu Shengxiang could speak, Long Sifeng raised his eyebrows and said.
"Shall I wait until you finish talking?" Yu Shengxiang looked at Lao Jiu and said with some grievances.
"Uh...... That, Xiangxiang, you know, I'm just kidding, you just think Brother Jiu is farting! Lao Jiu was embarrassed on the spot, he was indeed joking, but when he was scolded by Long Sifeng like this, his heart was instantly uncomfortable.
He didn't say anything about him because of Long Sifeng, but because of Long Sifeng's words, he felt that he was really selfish, and sometimes he was even a bit of a jerk. I didn't consider the feelings of the girls at all, and it was all self-righteous imagination.
"Don't say it, I used to be too self-righteous and thought too little about you, what Sifeng said is very right, I will pay attention to it in the future, and I will think more about you!" Stopping Yu Shengxiang from speaking, Lao Jiu said with some self-reproach.
"Okay, it's good to know, let's get down to business first." Long Sifeng glanced at Lao Jiu, then pushed Yu Shengxiang and asked her to take Lao Jiu's arm and walk towards the conference hall together.
"Oh, Uncle Yu, why are you here in person? I know it's wrong for me to take advantage of the fragrance, but as long as you say a word, I will definitely visit you in person! As soon as he entered the conference hall, Lao Jiu looked at Yukun inside and shouted very enthusiastically.
At this time, there were a few people around Yukun, but they were directly ignored by Lao Jiu, and after hearing Lao Jiu's words, their faces were even darker and more terrifying. Even if they are in Huaxia, they can be regarded as a big man, and this time they came with me, wanting to see if Lao Jiu is a person, but they didn't expect the other party to even look at them, which made the faces of several people a little unbearable.
"Ahem...... Xiao Jiu, I'll introduce you first......" Yukun coughed lightly twice, then gave Lao Jiu a look, and was about to introduce everyone to Lao Jiu, but was interrupted by Lao Jiu.
"I said Uncle Yu, you came all the way and made you wait for me for so long, it's really a little nephew, what's the matter." Lao Jiu interrupted Yukun's words very enthusiastically, and then yelled outside.
"Come, arrange the best feast in the city, immediately! Right away! This is the most honored guest of the Empire, remember, I will be given the highest banquet standard in the Empire. Hiss ......"
From the moment he entered the door, Lao Jiu was a picture of a hanger, and he was completely an image of a gentleman. He just wanted to see the attitude of other people and determine Yukun's right to speak among several people, but as soon as he entered the state, he was pinched from his waist, needless to say that Yusheng Xiang did it.
"Xiao Jiu, I'm here with a mission this time, let's get down to business first!" Yukun also frowned suddenly, and then looked at Lao Jiu with some seriousness and said.
"Uh...... Okay, Uncle Yu, if you have any requirements, just say, the Dream City has been caught, the Xiaoyao Basin has also withdrawn, and the North and South Boundary Rivers have also been given to you. It's not going to be another Qilin base this time, right? Lao Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then said with a bitter face.
"I said that if you don't give us a dowry, at least you have to leave us some necessities, right? Even if you don't think about me, you have to think about your daughter, right? You can't let her suffer with me for the rest of her life, can you? ”
"Dad? Huaxia wants a Kirin base again? Yu Shengxiang was stunned for a moment, and then said with some annoyance, "You are still not my own father, do you force your son-in-law like this?" The Xiaoyao Basin has just been built, you will tell the truth, let us give the Xiaoyao Basin to Huaxia, we will let it! ”
"The north and south boundary rivers have just been harnessed and developed, and the annual grain output is billions of tons, which can feed billions of people in China for a year. As a result, you come to negotiate, let us hand it over to Huaxia, and we will give it. ”
"Now the Qilin trading base is making money, and your daughter's life is just a little past, and you are here again. You still don't let people live, I think I picked it up, you wish I had lived as hard as possible! The less good the person, the better! ”
Originally, Yu Shengxiang pinched herself, but Lao Jiu thought that she wanted to let herself save some face for her father. But now as soon as Yu Shengxiang opened his mouth, even Lao Jiu opened his mouth in shock, which was completely beyond his imagination!
Sure enough, it's his wife, it seems that the authority of management is bigger, and there are more eyes on it. This made Lao Jiu secretly give a thumbs up, and at the same time, he had to sigh, the little sister on campus in the past really hasn't changed!
At this time, Yukun's whole face was as ugly as it was, he took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled. It took three repetitions to suppress the anger in my heart. And a few middle-aged people around him had faces as black as the bottom of a pot, and they felt that letting Yukun come was the biggest mistake!
