After learning that Buchen still has some time to set off, Li Blacksmith immediately started steel production in full swing, he plans to produce more steel during this time, so as to replace all the gear parts that he has already reserved, and then let Buchen return some capital, you must know that the 1,300 taels of gold that Buchen gave him have already spent more than half, if he doesn't earn a little back, he feels that he has no face to see him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Buchen doesn't care, steel is a heavy industry, the investment must be large, even if you lose some, it's nothing, as long as you can achieve his goal.

Buchen and his group lived in Zhuangzi for two days, and Qu Shouyi came to the door again.

Buchen thought that this fierce general brother had sent him money, but he didn't expect that he only got two small bottles containing the blood of the magician.

"Brother Shouyi, what about my two components?" Buchen asked with a hesitant face, at this time he had already brought Qu Shouyi into Zhuangzi's living room, and the guest and host also sat down.

"Brother Xiao Xian, it takes time to realize treasures!" Qu Shouyi smiled bitterly and said, Buchen was too anxious.

Buchen's face softened a little: "Brother Shouyi, I believe in your character, I hope you don't let me down!" ”

"That's natural, Brother Xiao Xian, don't worry!" Qu Shouyi was not angry, he still said with a smile, he is now proud, not only recommended Dong Yanzhou to enter the mountain to capture the curse a few years ago, and was appreciated by the ministers of Weiyuan Wang Qu, but now he has personally brought a large windfall to the Weiyuan Palace, and now he has become a hot figure in front of the Weiyuan King.

But fortunately, Qu Shouyi didn't brag to Buchen, otherwise Buchen would definitely choke him half to death - the so-called ten generals are still family generals, aren't they? Just like Sama, the leader of the beggar gang, is still a beggar......

"Is there anything else going on with Brother Shouyi?" Buchen picked up the teacup, and this was about to send off the guests. No matter what Qu Shouyi said, the fact that he came to the door with two bottles of blood and didn't have a penny still made Buchen a little unhappy, so he didn't plan to give Qu Shouyi lunch.

"Yes, yes!" Qu Shouyi saw that he was about to drive him away, and hurriedly said, "The prince wants to see you." ”

"King Weiyuan wants to see me?" Buchen raised his eyebrows, "Wouldn't it be that you want to arrest me and send me to Jingshi, so that the Emperor of the Yun family can cut me with a thousand knives?" ”

"Brother Xian, look at what you said, how can you be? The prince just wants to make friends with you. Qu Shouyi smiled bitterly and said, Buchen's brain hole is too big, which really makes him a little crying and laughing.

"That's it? Just making friends? Buchen asked with a frown.

"That's all!" Qu Shouyi nodded firmly.

Buchen pondered for a while and agreed: "Since King Weiyuan has been invited, then I'll go and meet him!" ”

"That's right!" Qu Shouyi clapped his palms and stood up, "Brother Xian, let's go!" ”

Buchen's cheeks twitched: "As for being in such a hurry?" ”

"Brother Xian, the prince has a lot of opportunities, and time is limited!" Qu Shouyi~ explained.

Hearing him mention this stalk, Buchen couldn't help but slander in his heart: "Li Wanji from day to night, naturally time is limited." ”

Qu Shouyi didn't know these dirty thoughts in his heart, he just came up and pulled his sleeve to leave.

It happened that at this time, Xue heard that Qu Shouyi was coming, and he also ran over, and when he saw that he was pulling Buchen to leave, he immediately grabbed the road.

"General Qu, where are you going to take your minister?" Xue asked with a beautiful brow.

"The prince wants to see Brother Xiao Xian." Seeing that it was her, Qu Shouyi didn't dare to slack off, and immediately replied.

Like when Buchen first heard it, Xue also had doubts in her heart, but because of her experience, she thought deeper: "Weiyuan Wang Nuo is a vassal king, what do you do when you see Buchen's remnants of the previous dynasty?" Does he still think that the civil officials of the DPRK and China have no truth? ”

Ever since Xue escaped from the ancient tomb, she has put a lot of effort into understanding the current real-time political situation, so she is well aware of the bullshit inside the Cyris Empire.

"Xue, you think too much, the prince just wants to get acquainted with Brother Xiao Xian." Qu Shouyi had no choice but to explain again.

"No, if you don't want to go, I'll go too!" Although Qu Shouyi said this, Xue was still not at ease, and immediately proposed to go along.

Qu Shouyi had nothing to do with this, anyway, he didn't have a ghost in his heart, so he agreed.

So Buchen, Xue and Qu Shouyi went out of the farm, each untied a horse from the horse stake, and went to Weiyuan City along the official road.

……

Weiyuan City is no different from when Buchen first came half a year ago, it is still bustling and lively, Xue is not very suitable for staying in a place where humans gather, it is a little unnatural, Buchen saw this and found a topic to talk to her, so as not to let people see any flaws.

At this time, Xue was wearing a white power suit in the style of Seris, with a veil on her head, and passers-by would be surprised by her height at most, and would not think much about it, but if she behaved too strangely, it would still give rise to some unnecessary complications.

"Xue, what do you think of the scenery of the Seris Empire compared to the countries of the Western Continent?" Buchen asked with a smile.

Xue said helplessly: "No, you are asking Yu Blind, our blood clan generally does not attack the city, but if the city is breached, there will be nothing to see in the city, and the humans are estimated to be either hiding in their own houses and shivering, or have escaped from the city." ”

Buchen laughed, he now finally understood why the snow was unnatural, because the humans who passed by her right now were actually just domestic animals in her eyes before, and they could be slaughtered and eaten at will, although because she had been imprisoned for five hundred years, her heart had changed a little, but it was not something that could be completely adapted in a while.

"Well, to put it another way, Xue, didn't you get captured near the Holy City in the first place? Then do you think it's the Holy City that is difficult to fight, or the Weiyuan City that is difficult to fight. ”

Qu Shouyi, who was on the side, immediately pricked up his ears when he heard Buchen mention this question.

Xue smiled and said, "Naturally, the Holy City is difficult to fight. ”

"Oh, why?" Buchen asked curiously, the Holy City and Weiyuan City are very similar, these two cities are not far from the border of the mainland, controlling the roads from the south to the north, and the city defense facilities are very complete. And because Weiyuan City is a city of Seris, both the population and the economy are stronger than the poor Holy City, which is worse than the poor Holy City, which smashes pots and sells iron, but Xue said that the Holy City is more difficult to fight than Weiyuan City, which makes Buchen a little puzzled.

"Because the people who defend the city are different!" Xue explained: "In the Holy City, both the military and the civilian have experienced thousands of years of religious wars, and Weiyuan City has not had a major war since the end of the War of Destruction a hundred years ago, and a hundred years is enough time to wear down the sharpness and will of human beings, so that they can turn from mighty lions to docile lambs, so in my opinion, if I am given the same number of troops and equipment, it will undoubtedly be much easier to take Weiyuan City than to take down the Holy City." ”

"I don't agree with you." Qu Shouyi immediately retorted, "Although we Weiyuan people have not experienced large-scale wars, as the people of the border pass, we are also fierce warriors, as long as we sharpen a little, we can become brave warriors, how can we be worse than the people of the Holy City?" ”

Xue smiled faintly and did not answer Qu Shouyi directly, but asked, "General Qu, have you ever been to the Western Continent?" ”

"This ......" Qu Shouyi's expression froze.

Xue could naturally see the meaning of his expression, and she smiled and said, "You haven't been there, have you?" I suggest you go once, only when you personally set foot on the land of the Western Continent, can you understand what is a land of war and chaos, and what is a people in troubled times, compared to them, your so-called 'people of martial arts' is not at a level at all. ”

Qu Shouyi was a little breathless by what Xue said, but he really hadn't been to the Western Continent, and he had never seen a real war, so he couldn't refute Xue at all, so he had to shut up and stop talking.

Buchen looked at Qu Shouyi and shook his head slightly, in fact, he completely agreed with Xue's point of view, the soldiers of the Eastern Kingdom, even if they are such martial arts guys as Qu Shouyi, look at war a little too idealisticly, but this is also a helpless thing, after all, they are only trained soldiers, not fought.

It's just that the most powerful guardian of a country is only such a person, and there are not many of them, which makes people can't help but sweat for the future and destiny of this country......
