"Hehe, Zhang Shuai has won the award," Hou Zhen said modestly with a glass.

"Since the two of us have a good conversation, it is better to be open and honest, and I, as the host, I will say it first, so as not to have any doubts about you. ”

"I came to you this time because I took a fancy to your ability to analyze the pros and cons in the army, and I didn't expect you to analyze the current situation in such a nuanced way. You're a man with bigger ambitions, and you can say you have the world in mind,"

"And I am even more unwilling to be used as a gunman, to be a pawn behind others, I have my own ideals, and this small place in the Red Blood Country is not the end of my ideals. The people of the Red Blood Country and even the Colorful Realm are living in dire straits, and I am willing to be the first to lead hundreds of millions of people to create a fair and universal world. Can you understand what I'm saying?"

"Of course you can, I have the same goal as you Zhang Shuai, and I am also this kind of person," Hou Zhen raised his glass excitedly. Emperor Zeng was not the master of the Ming Dynasty, and he had not discovered his Hou Zhen's ability over the years, so Hou Zhen had long lost confidence in Emperor Zeng and the court of the Red Blood Kingdom. The first time I came into contact with Zhang Jun today, my ability was recognized by Zhang Jun, and I suddenly felt like I was meeting Bole. And he didn't expect Zhang Jun's ambition to be so ambitious, far from being comparable to himself, which made Hou Zhen even more excited.

Zhang Jun was famous in the Red Blood Country during this time, which was simply a myth, and Hou Zhen had already been affected by something. I didn't expect the young Zhang Jun to have such a lofty goal. In my heart, I am even more sure that Zhang Jun should be a master.

Just when I saw that Zhang Jun's thoughts coincided with my own, I was so excited, and I threw myself to the ground for the five bodies that Zhang Jun had admired.

"So I want to work with Brother Hou Zhen to lay down a world that belongs to our brothers in the Colorful Domain, I don't know what Brother Hou Zhen thinks?" Zhang Jun said his purpose and waited for Hou Zhen's reply.

Hou Zhen was overjoyed when he heard it, how many years ago he had the idea of getting the Ming Jun, supporting the Ming Lord, and creating an immortal cause, but unfortunately Emperor Zeng was a yin owl, the Cold Emperor was brutal, and Emperor Jiang of the Kunyu Empire did not ask about the world and was dedicated to the Tao, so that Hou Zhen had a skill, but there was nowhere to play.

From now on, Hou Zhensheng is the lord of the lord's person, and death is the ghost of the lord, and he is willing to create a great cause with the lord. Hou Zhen hurriedly bowed down and said.

"Brother Hou, hurry up, since you and I are like-minded, we will still be brothers in the future, don't call the word lord, it seems too rusty. ”

"That's not good, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, you can be like brothers, but you can't mess up the rules, so that you can better restrain the people of the world. Hou Zhen said very seriously.

"Alright then, whatever you want, by the way, the big question now is what should we do in the future?"

Hou Zhen said after pondering for a moment.

"First of all, Emperor Zeng intends to support the lord to become the third force in the court of the Red Blood Country, and I think it should be calculated. Our biggest advantage is the Dongshan Academy and the Firearms Army. ”

"I have seen the new rules of Dongshan Academy, and I greatly admire your ability, I believe that as long as we continue to recruit a large number of students, we will soon be able to take the lead among the top ten sects,"

"And although the Firearms Army was formed by you, there are still many people from the royal family and the five major families. I think we should take the opportunity to vigorously build a new army, which will not only increase our strength and control, but also dilute the influence of the scattered royal family and the five major families. ”

"I think it's best to expand to three to four million. It's just such a large amount of expenditure on spar materials, grain and grass, etc., I'm afraid that the power of the five major families in the court will not approve of it. Raising troops is more important than employing them, and this is the biggest problem. ”

"Secondly, we have to have a territory of our own, which can be attacked and defended, with millions of male soldiers in front and hundreds of millions of people in the back, so it will be easier to succeed, not to mention that you still have the support of the four deep-rooted sects, and it will not be a simple three-point world. With the might of the firearms army, the unification of the world is just around the corner,"

"Of course, there are two biggest variables in this, one is not to fall into the situation set up by Emperor Zeng and have a grudge against the five major families, so I said that there is a reason why you should not avenge me. Second, the current rebellion in Yunyang should be resolved as soon as possible. In case of accidents, which will affect our plans. After Hou Zhen said these words, he ate a few more bites of food, waiting for Zhang Jun's answer.

Zhang Jun said after thinking for a moment.

"The affairs of Dongshan Academy are already on the right track, including the four major sects, I can reform their shortcomings in the same way, and let the four major sects override the other sects as soon as possible. The four major sects have recruited students over the years, and they are all small and medium-sized families who prefer each city. I'm going to break this routine. To recruit students from among the ordinary people, it is even more necessary to give those ordinary people a chance. I don't think it's a problem to recruit tens of millions of students. ”

"The expansion of the firearms army should not be a problem in Emperor Zeng, but I don't want to be placed more people, it should be more meaningful to find a place to live first, after all, the soul of the firearms army is not in the army, but in firearms, it is most meaningful for me to firmly grasp the major oil refining valleys of the Red Blood Country and the arsenals and various craftsmen who manufacture firearms. ”

"There's a word that's most popular in our world, and it's called technology to control the future. To tell you the truth, the design of the Thunder Cannon is only the simplest design that I have come up with on the fly, and it is only the lowest level of weapons. In the future, we will master weapons that are 100 times more powerful than thunder artillery, but what is most lacking now is talent, and I need a place to cultivate talent. ”

"Technology? I really don't understand this, but what you said is true, and the Thunder Cannon is really the lowest-level weapon?"

"It's true, the level of science and technology in our world is beyond your imagination, our most ordinary people can also fly in the sky in a plane, wander in the deep sea in a submarine, and even go to other planets in a spaceship, such as weapons, the ordinary * on our earth is more than a hundred times more powerful than the thunder artillery, and it is entirely possible to level a mountain and raze a radius of ten miles to the ground" Zhang Jun just estimated that the power could blow up everything in a radius of ten miles, because the gravity of the colorful field was too small.

Hou Zhen heard about this, and was fooled by Zhang Jun's clouds and fog, making it as if he had met a fairy, and the worshippers almost fell down immediately.

"Having said that, it's definitely a question of how much we can bring the technology of our world here, and it's too early to discuss. ”

"You are ready, I will try to get you into the firearms army as soon as possible, and then everything in the firearms army will be managed by you personally, I want a new look of the firearms army, this matter will be left to you, don't worry about the resources of spar materials, we will soon have a large number of spars and materials that cannot be spent." This has been part of my plan for a long time. ”

"Thank you for your trust, Hou Zhen will definitely live up to your trust. ”

“.........”

didn't sleep all night, Zhang Jun and Hou Zhen planned all night. All kinds of pros and cons Zhang Jun couldn't imagine, Hou Zhen can point out, and get the corresponding solution, I have to say that if Hou Zhen is put on the ancient earth, it can definitely be comparable to Guan Zhong and Le Yi's ability, and even reach the level of Zhuge and Zhou Yu.

After Hou Zhen left, Zhang Jun slept until the afternoon before waking up, just after lunch, he received an invitation from Chu Tian, in fact, the attendant had already come to the palace to invite Zhang Jun to the meeting, but seeing that Zhang Jun had not woken up, he didn't dare to call at all, and waited until Zhang Jun and Guan Xiang finished lunch before coming up to report.

Zhang Jun thought it would be a military council, but after all, there was no result from yesterday's research at all.

Unexpectedly, in the handsome tent, it turned out to be the owners and managers of the major jewelry connoisseurs, and the Chu brothers. are waiting for Zhang Jun in the handsome tent.

As soon as Zhang Jun saw their posture, he felt that there was a great posture of asking for guilt.

Unexpectedly, among dozens of people, I accidentally found the beautiful boss Su Yun. is still so beautiful, but it is a little more haggard than that day, and a pitiful appearance makes Zhang Jun feel a little heartache. It seems that Su Yun is not having a very good time these days.

After the two glanced at each other, Zhang Jun nodded to Su Yun with a smile, and Su Yun also replied with a kind smile.

And a middle-aged man sitting next to Su Yun, seeing that Su Yun and Zhang Jun seemed to be very familiar, couldn't help frowning and scolded in a low voice. Su Yun instantly lowered her head, and her eyes were suddenly full of tears.

How could Zhang Jun not hear what the middle-aged man said, he suddenly felt a little angry in his heart, and just wanted to step forward to teach the middle-aged man a lesson, but was intercepted by Chu Yu's shout.

"Brother Zhang Jun will introduce you to these people, some you may have seen, some you may not have seen, this is ........"

From the introduction, it was learned that the middle-aged man was the head of the Huanxiang jewelry store, Su Yun's father-in-law, named Chen Feng.

After a period of greetings, Chu Tian took the lead in speaking.

"Brother Zhang Jun, I came to you today mainly to discuss a major matter, this matter is related to the future of Chiyan Pass, and the net worth and lives of all the merchants in the audience. ”。

"Oh, what's going on? It's alarming the jewelry stores in the city?"

"To tell you the truth, now the owners of the eighteen jewelry stores are alarmed and have ordered us to quickly find a way to solve the crisis in front of us."

"Brother Chu, what kind of crisis is it, I haven't understood. ”。

"Alas, then I'll just say, Brother Zhang Jun really has a big accident. Including your interests have also suffered a lot of losses, if you want to talk about this, you have to start from the day of the Gambling Stone Festival."

"On that day, you bought hundreds of blessing gems for our brothers and Kang Gongzi to cheer up, but all the stones were solved, and we were a little strange at the time, it stands to reason that we shouldn't be able to solve a blessing gem! ”

"It just so happened that there was an explosion in the Chiyanguan Jewelry Store, and our two brothers went to deal with this matter, but we found a strange phenomenon, among the thousands of rough stones that exploded into pieces, there was still no blessed gem, in order to avoid this matter from being known to the outside world, we immediately closed the Chiyanguan Jewelry Store to avoid the news leaking. Eighteen large jewelry houses were notified to jointly investigate the matter. ”。

"After a few days of investigation, it was found that there were less than ten rough stones containing gems on the day of the Gambling Stone Festival, including the few blessed gems you opened."

Zhang Jun smiled secretly in his heart, it would be strange to be able to open a blessing gem, after the clairvoyant eye was swept, let alone fifty pieces, even five pieces were all dreams? Zhang Jun dared to guarantee that the blessing stones placed on the shelf were all stones, and there would not be a single gem in them.

"Nearly 10,000 rough stones were unlocked that day, and according to the practice of previous years, there should be at least four or five hundred rough stones that can solve the blessed gems. And the treasure rate of this gambling stone conference is only one percent of the usual. ”

"Now the major buyers have begun to wonder if there is something wrong with our mine, which has been depleted and no longer produces blessed gems."

"If there is really a problem with the ore, I am afraid that the 18th National Congress of the Jewelry Bank will be completely closed. The Red Flame Pass will be completely decayed because of this, and I don't know how many families will leave their homes to find a way to survive!" Chu Tian said solemnly to Zhang Jun.

"It's ....... In other words, those blessing rough stones that I purchased at sky-high prices are most likely a pile of waste stones?" Zhang Jun suddenly jumped up, his face flushed and he looked at the shopkeepers and heads of the eighteen jewelry stores in front of him. Want to eat them alive like that.
