Zhou Xian chatted with them for a while before leaving.

I'm going back tomorrow, and today I'm going to explain some things and buy some things.

came to his room, Zhou Xian asked Zhang Dabiao to find Sun Wu.

Soon Sun Wu came to Zhou Xian's room, and when he saw Sun Wu coming, Zhou Xian said: "I will go back tomorrow, you arrange a company to be stationed here, if there is anything on the side of the store, you can also go to support, and the goods we will ship in the future will be placed here." ”

Without waiting for Sun Wu to speak, Zhou Xian said again: "Even those who stay here must insist on continuing training every day, once the soldiers do not train for a long time, they will be lazy, and you send someone to inform Han Li who is doing business with us, they said that they will send someone to our Monkey Mountain Village to observe, okay, you go down and make arrangements." ”

Sun Wu saluted Zhou Xian, said yes and walked out of Zhou Xian's room.

The next day, Zhou Xian set off with the four newly recruited disciples and the caravan.

Because they sold a lot of silver, they bought more wagons when they returned, and the procession went more slowly.

Han Li's four families each sent a subordinate and a subordinate to follow the team in a carriage.

Zhou Xian bought a big carriage that could seat seven or eight people, and his apprentices, Xiang Shaoyun and Sun Wu all came to Zhou Xian's carriage to listen to Zhou Xian tell some stories.

Zhou Xian sat in the carriage and was bored, so he told them some wars in later generations.

Of course, Zhou Xian said that the Qing Dynasty was another country, and told them the stories of foreigners who opened the Qing Dynasty with guns and cannons such as the First Sino-Japanese Naval War and the invasion of the Eight Kingdoms.

They were deeply shocked when they heard that foreigners had defeated a country with millions of troops with only a few tens of thousands of musketeers.

Although Xiang Shaoyun and Sun Wu had already come into contact with the musketeers, they still couldn't imagine that the musketeers were so powerful.

As for Xu Shouyi, the four of them had never seen musketeers, so they couldn't imagine what kind of army this was.

Xiang Shaoyun said: "My lord, is this true? Can tens of thousands of musketeers really defeat dozens or hundreds of times more enemies? ”

"Of course this is true, our muskets are hot weapons, how can those swords and other cold weapons be compared, I can tell you for sure, as long as we have 30,000 musketeers, we can sweep the entire Ming invincible."

Zhou Xian's words made Xiang Shaoyun and Sun Wu's blood boil.

Thinking that the soldiers they led were so powerful, they were extremely excited, and they couldn't wait to be able to sweep the entire Ming Dynasty immediately.

When Xu Shouyi heard this, he also said to Zhou Xian with anticipation: "Master, do you also want to compete for the world?" ”

Zhou Xian was silent for a moment, and sighed: "Daming is now decayed and dying, if Daming really can't hold on, I will take action to win the world, let the world become rich and strong again, and the people live and work in peace and contentment." ”

Hearing Zhou Xian's affirmative answer, everyone in the car became excited, if they really succeeded in fighting for the world, then they were all great heroes.

Zhou Xian looked at their excited appearance, and said: "Don't be happy too early, we have just begun, we have to keep a low profile before we have the power to protect ourselves, and don't leak out today." ”

Everyone nodded when they heard Zhou Xian's words, of course they knew that if what Zhou Xian said today was known to others, it would be a major crime of rebellion, and they would be punished by the Nine Clans.

Later, Zhou Xian chatted with them about some geographical knowledge.

When Zhou Xian said that the earth where we are located is called the earth, which is a huge ball.

They still couldn't accept it, and Zhou Xian didn't care about them, he just said lightly, "In the future, you will have the opportunity to go to the beach and see the sailboat to know whether the earth is round, and there is another way to prove that the earth is round." ”

Xu Shouyi asked eagerly, "Master, what is the method?" ”

Zhou Xian said with a faint smile: "In fact, when the sun is eclipsed, you can see the projection of the earth on the moon, oh, by the way, the so-called solar eclipse is the tengu eclipse sun." ”

When everyone heard Zhou Xian's explanation, they were a little convinced that the earth was round.

Zhou Xian saw them like this and said: "After returning to Monkey Mountain Village, we will build the school, and I will tell you some knowledge in the future, so that you will not understand nothing." ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded yes, their eyes showing anticipation.

After half a month without incident, Zhou Xian and others finally came to the Shanxi Provincial Government.

Back at the mansion of the provincial capital, Zhou Xian instructed everyone to rest for a day and continue to set off tomorrow.

In the mansion, Zhou Xian asked Xu Shouyi if the four of them wanted to go home.

The four of them said that they would not go back, firstly because they didn't want their families to know that they would not participate in the scientific expedition, and secondly, because they were afraid that their families would prevent them from following Zhou Xian to Monkey Mountain Village.

Their understanding of Zhou Xian along the way made them respect Zhou Xian even more, and the master could be said to be an omniscient and omnipotent existence in their eyes.

Zhou Xian saw that they really didn't want to go back, so he didn't say anything, and took them to the shops in the provincial capital.

As soon as I arrived at the store, I saw that the store was full of people coming and going, and it looked like business was booming.

Zhou Xian followed the crowd into the store, found the shopkeeper here to understand the situation, and then went back.

Since it is not far from Monkey Mountain Village, there is an abundant supply, so there are many people who come to buy things.

After learning about the situation in the provincial capital, Zhou Xian and others set off again the next day, and after a three-day journey, they came to Shanxi Mansion.

As soon as he arrived at Shanxi Mansion, Zhou Xian asked Sun Wu to arrange for the soldiers to go to the mansion to rest, and he took Zhang Dabiao and Xiang Shaoyun to the horse market.

Zhou Xian and the three of them soon came to the horse market, and they came directly to the horse shed in Shenzhong Mountain.

There were only two guys here taking care of it, and Zhou Xian stepped forward and said to one of the guys, "Man, are you Boss Shen here?" ”

The guy saw that it was Zhou Xian, and hurriedly said: "Master Shen, now at home, he has explained, saying that when he sees Lord Zhou coming, he will take you directly to the Shen Mansion, Lord Zhou, you come with me." ”

After speaking, he took Zhou Xian and them to the outside of the horse market.

Zhou Xian and the three of them followed the guy for half an hour, and then they came to a very luxurious-looking mansion, and the plaque of the mansion had the word Shen Mansion written on it.

The guy walked to the door of the mansion, and after saying to the two guys guarding the door, he beckoned Zhou Xian and the three of them to go to the Shen Mansion.

The guy took Zhou Xian and the three of them to a living room, let the three of them sit down, and then notified Shen Chongshan to go.

As soon as Zhou Xian and the others sat down, a maid came with a teapot to make a pot of tea for the three of them.

After a while, Shen Chongshan walked in, and as soon as the person arrived, he said with a smile: "Lord Zhou, you are finally here, I have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Zhou Xian also stood up and said, "I made Boss Shen wait for a long time, and I encountered a little trouble on the way to the capital, so I delayed for a few days, I don't know if Boss Shen has prepared the horses." ”
