On the afternoon of March 1st, in Shanhai City.
In the Hall of Civil Splendor of the Southern Border Protectorate, Ouyang Shuo and the First Minister of the Cabinet, Jiang Shang, as well as Xiao He, Wei Yang, Fan Li, and Du Ruhui, were having a discussion.
The topic of discussion was the Capital City Promotion Mission.
Upon learning that Shanhai City was going to be promoted to a capital city, the five ministers were excited. Once Shanhai City was promoted to become a capital city, it would mean that the establishment of a kingdom was just around the corner.
Therefore, no matter how difficult the mission was, they had to give it their all.
When he left the Main Hall in the morning, Ouyang Shuo's Quest Panel had given him a detailed notification of the three quests.
The [Imperial Court Examination] mission indicated that the examination would take place in the middle of March, but the exact date was not specified. It was very likely that the officials of the imperial court would launch a surprise attack or secretly arrive at Shanhai City to conduct an investigation first.
Ouyang Shuo had already instructed the Mountain Sea Guards to strengthen their surveillance of Shanhai City over the next two weeks. If they discovered any suspicious characters, they would immediately report it to the guards.
More importantly, Ouyang Shuo instructed the four Division Heads, "From now on, Shanhai City will enter a state of inspection, and be prepared to be assessed at any time. In this way, we won't give the other party an opportunity to take advantage of us. "
Xiao He and the others were all famous officials with rich experience in battles. Naturally, they knew what the outcome would be if the Great Li Imperial Court sent officials to assess Shanhai City. Thus, they were all on guard and did not dare to be careless.
"There's still some time. Let's check the loopholes first." Ouyang Shuo looked at Jiang Shang and said, "Five days from now, Pavilion Elder Jiang will organize an independent evaluation team to conduct a mock evaluation of Shanhai City."
Ouyang Shuo, on the other hand, had brought the modern society's way of dealing with superiors' checks into the game.
"Yes, sir!"
Since Jiang Shang had agreed to be the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, he quickly got into character.
Apart from the Imperial Court's examination, the Thirty-Six Lines mission also gave Ouyang Shuo quite a headache.
The task panel clearly stated, "[Thirty-six Lines] Task: Degree of completion 35/36. Friendly reminder: After testing, Shanhai City currently does not have [Sorcerer's Movement]. Please complete it as soon as possible! "
What does Sorcerer's Movement do?
After asking, Ouyang Shuo found out that the so-called "Sorcerer's Walk" was a sorcerer who performed divination. The mountain barbarian tribes had Grand Warlocks who could divine, but they were not acknowledged by Gaia.
This was going to be difficult!
According to the rules of the mission, from the moment the mission was accepted, Shanhai City could no longer go to Royal City to recruit talents. Thus, the Witch could either rely on Shanhai City to farm refugees, or she could only search the entire territory. Ouyang Shuo, on the other hand, decided to use both methods at the same time. He had already summoned all the counties to investigate and see if there were any witches.
In the end, Ouyang Shuo had no choice but to seek help from the Recruitment Hall. He wanted to see if he could find a Witch during the monthly recruitment of special talents.
However, the probability of this happening was too low, and there was only one chance per month. He really couldn't put too much hope in it.
What Ouyang Shuo hated the most was uncertainty. Unfortunately, whether the witch would appear or not was out of his control, which made Shanhai City's path to becoming a capital city even more difficult.
As for the last mission, [New Types of Soldiers], Ouyang Shuo had already entrusted it to Du Ruhui.
After two hours of discussion, Ouyang Shuo and the five ministers made a clear division of labor and made a detailed analysis of the advancement mission.
What Ouyang Shuo had to do next was to wait patiently.
During dinner, Song Jia mentioned something to Ouyang Shuo.
"Wuyi, the movie [The Beauty of the Country] has finished shooting and is currently in post-production. Wu Qingcheng estimates that the movie will be released in late April at the latest. "
Ouyang Shuo drank a mouthful of soup and said, "That's good." [The Beauty of the Country] would be released two months later than in his previous life. This was naturally due to the strong support of [Shanhai Entertainment Holdings Group].
"You have to cooperate during the movie's publicity." Song Jia, however, had a purpose.
Ouyang Shuo readily agreed. "No problem. In a few days, I will write a commentator article on the gaming and entertainment industry for the [Daily News] and mention this movie in it. "
Song Jia smiled and said, "That's great. Once you open your mouth, it's better than any publicity." Song Jia's words weren't flattery, but the truth.
Ouyang Shuo, the strongest lord in the wilderness, had a far-sighted vision. This was a widely recognized fact in the wilderness. It was easy to imagine what kind of heated discussion the article he wrote would cause in the wilderness.
Perhaps this would open the curtains to the explosion of the entertainment industry. [Shanhai Entertainment Holdings Group], which had long been prepared, took this opportunity to set sail.
Song Jia then said, "One more thing. The movie 'Huo Qubing' is also in the midst of filming. If it's fast, it should be released in early June."
A few days ago, the imperial guards had already returned to Shanhai City to rest and reorganize, giving the production team a great deal of convenience.
Ouyang Shuo nodded. He was also looking forward to seeing if these two movies would shine even more brilliantly than in his previous life under the influence of someone who had been reborn.
"Oh, right." Song Jia suddenly said excitedly, "Auntie sent me a letter this morning saying that she's preparing to open the 'Kunlun' instance tomorrow. She wants me to rush to Jianye first thing in the morning."
The 'Kunlun' instance was a Wuxia instance. Xie Siyun had won it at the global auction for the high price of 850,000 gold coins. Ouyang Shuo had invested 200,000 gold coins in it to get a spot for Song Jia.
Seeing his wife's excited expression, Ouyang Shuo smiled and said, "Then go. I will have Tianqi arrange for people to secretly protect you. After all, it's the first Wuxia instance. It should be very interesting. "
"I think so too." Song Jia was full of anticipation. After learning about the instance, she had specially crammed on the Internet to read the original work. She had read it from beginning to end four times.
Not to mention anything else, just the martial arts secret manuals and divine weapons in the novels were enough to make people salivate with desire.
The husband and wife talked as they finished their dinner. Let's not talk about this for now.
March 2nd, Jiangnan Province, Zhoushan Port.
At about 4 pm, a sail-powered battleship with the Statue of Liberty hanging over it slowly docked at the port. It was the battleship from Freedom City that had just left Japan.
On the dock, Di Chen, Lord Chunshen, Xiong Ba, Wolf Warrior, Military Kill Ripper, and Wandering Huan were all present. The others were quite excited. Only Wandering Huan had a somewhat complicated expression.
Before the battle for the Satellite Town, Wandering Huan had only found out that behind the families of Xiong Ba and the others was a mysterious organization called the Silver Hand. This had made him quite shocked.
Under Xiong Ba's persuasion, Wandering Huan finally accepted the silver secret order, but he felt uneasy. According to the style of the Silver Hand, everything was done to protect the interests of the aristocratic families.
If in the future national war, the national interests and the interests of the Silver Hand conflicted, what choice would Di Chen and the others make? At the thought of this, Wandering Huan shuddered a little.
Cooperating with Di Chen and the others was tantamount to asking a tiger for its skin, which made Wandering Huan tremble with fear. It was just that he had already boarded the warship of the Yan Huang Alliance and could no longer get off.
During the battle for the Satellite Town, Wandering Huan had an intuitive understanding of the power of the Silver Hand. Now that the first lord of the United States had sent the core technology from thousands of miles away, he was even more surprised.
Just as Wandering Huan was in a daze, the sail-powered battleship had stopped, and a ladder was lowered from the battleship. Two Americans, one civil and one military, walked in the front, followed by a group of soldiers armed with guns.
When Di Chen and the others saw them, they greeted them with a smile.
What followed was naturally a welcoming dinner, and then the transaction that had been booked was carried out. The moment Di Chen received the three technical manuals from the clerk of the Free City, his hands trembled a little.
With these three treasures, the technological advantage of Shanhai City would be gone. In addition, Di Chen had already thought about using these three things to write a good article, and then take Shanhai City down a notch.
The next morning, the battleship set off and left.
Di Chen and the others did not leave. Although they drank with the two Americans yesterday and almost didn't sleep for the whole night, they were all in high spirits, and simply held a temporary alliance meeting in Overlord City.
In addition to discussing how to set up a trap for Shanhai City, there was another agenda, which was about instigating the Dragon Seeking Acupoints. Xiong Ba admitted that he had made decisive progress.
The big gift sent by Jack was a fatal blow to Xiong Ba.
Xiong Ba looked around and said, "The old fox is very stingy, and only authorized the weaving machine manufacturing technology to the Dragon Seeking Acupoints. The rest of the steam engine, warship, and other technologies were all blocked. This made the Dragon Seeking Acupoints very dissatisfied, and they held a grudge. Think about it, if we use these three technical authorizations as bargaining chips, do we still have to worry about that kid not obediently giving in? "
Zhan Lang was honest, and asked in confusion, "But once these three technologies are authorized in our territories, it will break through the limit of five technical authorizations. This technology will naturally be popularized in the China region. "
Xiong Ba smiled, and there was indescribable slyness in his smile, "So, we can delay the internal authorization of the technology. When the Dragon Seeking Acupoints is reversed, it won't be too late to authorize the internal authorization. As long as both sides sign the agreement in black and white, even if the Dragon Seeking Acupoints finds out that they have been tricked, there is no way out. "
Wandering, who was at the side, heard this, and felt a faint chill in his heart. These aristocratic children were indeed experts in playing tricks. If they really did this, they would be forcing the Dragon Seeking Acupoints to the road of death.
Thinking about it, Wandering felt sad for the Dragon Seeking Acupoints.
"Why bother? You fell out with Shanhai City because of a small matter. Now, you have built a relationship with the [Yan Huang Alliance], but they are digging a hole for you. It really is one wrong step, and you will fall into a bottomless abyss. "
Wandering, however, secretly warned himself in his heart that he could not do the next Dragon Seeking Acupoints.
"This is a good idea!"
Lord Chunshen and the rest agreed. They were not very interested in counteracting the Dragon Seeking Acupoints, and it was Xiong Ba who was actively working on it. But if they could use this kind of "getting something for nothing" method to take down the Dragon Seeking Acupoints, they naturally would not reject it.
At the very least, it would be good to disgust their mortal enemy.
Xiong Ba was overjoyed, and said, "Then it's settled. Don't worry, I will get it done as soon as possible. "
