"Ocean Daily" was finally published, Dayang Group became popular again, newspapers appeared, and a brand new way of disseminating information appeared in front of the public. And the content of the newspaper for the first time was very explosive.

On it, the navigation routes controlled by Dayang Group, as well as the coastlines of the west of the Fertile Land and the west of the Tall Island, and related ports were published.

In addition, it also publishes the current border situation of the Qixia Kingdom, and even includes the west of Fertile Land, the railway route, and the planned route.

There are also cars, hot air balloons, steel battleships, and more. A newspaper, a breath of industry and commerce rushed over.

As for direct politics and so on, the first issue of the newspaper didn't touch on it at all.

In the first issue of the newspaper, Zhang Hao personally served as the editor-in-chief. The content was of course exciting, explaining the strength of Dayang Group and Qixia Kingdom from the perspective of industry and commerce.

Finally, I pointed out the news of encountering a mirage dragon during this voyage, and said that we are going to slay the dragon soon.

Attached at the end is the 'Dragon Slaying Weapon' - a brand new super ballista, which can shoot through an excellent steel plate with a thickness of 30 cm - which is equivalent to the full defensive ability of the late stage of transformation.

When the newspaper was published, the entire Qixia Kingdom was on fire for a while. But under such circumstances, Zhang Hao brought the Swordsman couple to the most peculiar place in Ninghe County, and even the entire Qixia Kingdom—Jiuzhen Tower!

The first time Zhang Hao ate extravagantly was at Jiuzhen Building. It was also here that Feng Zhiling was received later.

After a few contacts, Zhang Ao has already become a little wary of Jiuzhen Building - at that time, Jiuzhen Building could catch Jiaolong, not to mention that he didn't even need Jiaolong's fishing rod.

Later, the political situation fluctuated, but Jiuzhenlou was never affected; but Jiuzhenlou did not participate in these things, and they managed their own property in a stable manner.

In the country of Danyang, the country of Jinyang, etc., there are Jiuzhen Towers.

In the past wars, everyone also ignored this existence.

Zhang Hao also investigated repeatedly, but he didn't get much information. He only knew that the power behind the Jiuzhen Tower was terrifying—nonsense, whether it was flying in the sky, running on the ground, or swimming in the sea, as long as you are willing to spend money, People can get it for you!

This ability is no small matter!

Zhang Hao contacted several times, but finally had to come to visit in person. The main reason is that Zhang Hao feels that now he should be qualified to visit the power behind Jiuzhen Tower.

As soon as Zhang Hao came to Jiuzhen Building, he saw Hu Juncheng, the shopkeeper of Jiuzhen Building, standing at the gate, surrounded by several gorgeously dressed 'maids' - but the cultivation base of these maids turned out to be Nascent Soul period!

Just as Zhang Hao approached, Hu Juncheng took the initiative to greet him, and he laughed all the way: "I've been looking forward to it for a long time, and finally Mr. Zhang is here."

Zhang Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Hu Juncheng for a long time, and finally nodded: "Lead the way!"

Smart people don't need to say too much, obviously Hu Juncheng has been waiting for a long time.

When Zhang Hao and Hu Juncheng came to the door, several maids from the "Yuanying Stage" on both sides bowed immediately: "Welcome."

For a time, various sounds such as crisp, coquettish, waxy, and slightly mature magnetism merged into a sound of nature. Even for Zhang Hao, there was a feeling of being crisp to the bone for a while.

A group of almost impeccable, Nascent Soul stage maids...

Is this a demonstration? Still pay attention?

Zhang Hao's heart became more and more vigilant. This Jiuzhen Tower, the water is very deep!

This time, Hu Juncheng went directly to the top floor - above the ninth floor, there was another small floor, which did not have the one-foot-high space below, but only eight feet high. Compared with the floors below, it is a bit cramped.

But here, there was already a plainly dressed man with no visible breath standing at the door waiting.

Zhang Hao observed the other party carefully. Although he couldn't see the aura, his bearing was extraordinary. Zhang Hao is sure that the opponent is definitely in the stage of transformation, and it is very likely that he is in the late stage of transformation!

Judging from his appearance, he looked like he was forty years old, and he was all elegant; but judging from his demeanor and the breath of time on his body, he was probably an old monster.

At this time, he was looking at Zhang Hao with a smile.

Zhang Hao came to the other party generously, cupped his hands, "I don't know how to call the senior?"

"Oh...won't you introduce yourself?"

Zhang Hao looked directly at the other party with a confident face: "Then what do you want to hear from me, senior? The person who guided the theory of the circle of the earth and the discovery of the Tianyuan star? Or the pioneer of overseas sea routes? Or the leader of industry and commerce?"

Zhang Hao is very confident. He believed that if he could let such an expert from the opponent wait for him, he would naturally not wait for the position of the minister of Qixia Kingdom. At present, the most influential and general-oriented things are the above three.

Sure enough, the other party laughed, "Master Zhang is really smart. Old man Dong Guo Mingyun comes from the Kunlun Continent in the east, or more precisely, from West Kunlun, or West Kunlun Island.

He is the chief person in charge of Jiuzhen Building and Fertility Island.

In fact, I have been following you for a long time, but considering the chaos in the Qixia Kingdom in the past, in order to avoid misunderstandings, I have not taken any action.

Also please forgive me. "

"It's Zhang Hao who came to visit until now, and made senior wait for a long time." Zhang Hao said modestly, "I didn't expect that senior came from Kunlun Continent, which is a bit unexpected."

"Sit down, I have been preparing for today's meeting for a long time."

Next to him, the big shopkeeper Hu Juncheng became a servant, busily busy; beside him, the maid of the Nascent Soul Period stood quietly, motionless, like a sculpture.

Dongguo Mingyun said, "Jiuzhen Building itself does not just provide ingredients and so on. In fact, Jiuzhen Building is an organization for casual cultivators all over the world."

As he said that, Dongguo Mingyun looked distant, "A long, long time ago, the life of casual cultivators was very difficult. We had no resources, no exercises, and no status!

Those family, sect, and even national masters beat and scolded us at will, even if they killed us, they could do nothing.

Until 30,000 years ago, a casual cultivator named "Zhu Shangqian" accidentally broke through to the stage of transformation.

But Zhu Shangqian didn't think of this at first, but when he was retreating, his daughter was actually killed by a good-for-nothing young master from a wealthy family... a girl!

Since then, Zhu Shangqian has gathered scattered cultivators from all walks of life, and gradually formed the prototype of Jiuzhen Building.

We gather together to resist insults, we say no to sects that monopolize elixir, we obtain cultivation resources by ourselves, we refine alchemy tools by ourselves, and we study exercises by ourselves. Even, we will attack some sects, etc., and rob them of their exercises.

It was a chaotic era.

We were hunted down, and we were almost wiped out at the moment of crisis. But relying on the joint battle of casual cultivators, we gradually rise up and have our own sky!

Today, in the world that includes the scope of the earth phenomenon, the reason why the exercises are flying all over the sky is our credit! "

Zhang Hao opened his mouth wide, the wonder of this world seems to be far beyond his imagination!

Dongguo Mingyun paused for a while, and continued, "Do you know why Xuanzhen Sect appeared 30,000 years ago? Back then, there was a scuffle in the Kunlun Continent, and an unprecedented war broke out between casual cultivators and traditional sects and families. At the last moment, the two sides even There are masters who have surpassed the stage of transforming gods to play.

The ray of sky on your Qiufeng Ridge is what was left by the battle that year.

That battle tore the earth apart. Now in the west of Kunlun Continent, there is a big island called "West Kunlun" with a radius of about 20,000 li. It is the trace of the battle of that year.

The battle that year directly tore the Kunlun Continent. As a result, fires erupted in the west of Kunlun Continent, the sea dried up, and the people were devastated. The sky was cloudy for three months, and the earth was covered with frost.

In that war, we were at a disadvantage. But if the other party wants to exterminate us, they must pay a heavy price. Even prepare for Shenzhou Lu Chen! With the determination to die together, we finally won the opportunity.

Later, due to heavy losses and our secret operations, which led to internal divisions in the coalition forces, we finally turned defeat into victory.

But we also lost a lot, almost everyone was injured, and finally the two sides had to stop fighting. And gradually accept us. "

Zhang Hao's heart was pounding - masters who surpassed the stage of becoming gods participated in the battle, Shenzhou sank, and the sea dried up... These series of words are like myths and legends.

But Zhang Hao believes that what the other party said should be true. You should be able to inquire about such things by finding any expert in the Kunlun Continent. No, Zhang Hao looked at the Sword and Sword Shuangxia couple next to him, and they nodded slowly.

After all, after giving Zhang Hao a time to think, Dongguo Mingyun finally revealed his true purpose: "I represent West Kunlun, and I want to invite Dayang Group to join!"

Zhang Hao slowly picked up the teacup, took a few sips, and then slowly asked: "Does senior think Dayang Group will definitely join?"

"I think you will!" Dong Guo Mingyun is very confident, "Listen to me one by one."

"First of all, we are a casual cultivator...well...you can call it a mutual aid organization. It is a free organization. You can join or leave at will.

As long as you join, you can instantly have a large number of casual cultivator friends. All over the world! You can also share intelligence information from our side, etc. There are also our resources, business routes and so on. "

Zhang Hao smiled: "Although what you said is very general, I can still feel the strong influence of West Kunlun. However, I believe that there is no free lunch in this world. So, what does Dayang Group need to pay?"

"There's no free lunch? That's a good analogy. As for what Dayang Group pays—we hope to get the guidance of Dayang Group and build a group like Dayang Group."

Zhang Hao looked at each other with a smile, "Senior, you are joking. Now Dayang Group's technology has spread, and many of our ideas and so on are also public.

As long as there are these, West Kunlun can easily copy the model of Dayang Group.

For these public things, it seems a bit of a big deal to bother the seniors, right? "

"I am more optimistic about the future of Dayang Group. Moreover, as far as I know, in the last technology leak incident, the most critical technology of Dayang Group was not leaked. For example, the technical information of the steam turbine was leaked, but the guidance on why the steam turbine should do that The theory...doesn't seem to have been leaked!

Also, Dayang Group's most important steel technology has not been leaked.

There is also the primer at the bottom of the shell, which seems to be unusual! "

As he said that, Dongguo Mingyun narrowed his eyes, feeling a bit like a smile but not a smile: "Young Master Zhang, you are not the only smart person in this world! Xuanzhen Sect is not mentioned now, but it does not mean that it will not be pursued in the future! The current Xuanzhen Sect cannot It's because I'm afraid that I will force you to the Xiaoyao faction, so I pretend to be stupid!

As for West Kunlun, we can provide you, Dayang Group, and the Zhang family with a second choice! "

Zhang Hao was silent. After drinking two cups of tea silently, Zhang Haocai finally raised his head and said, "Well, after we reopen the sea route in a month, I will personally lead the fleet to visit West Kunlun.

Before that, I will send someone to find out. "

"Master Zhang is really cautious."

Zhang Hao shook his head slightly, "I am not alone now. There are tens of thousands of people behind me, and I need to be responsible for these people who choose to believe in me!

I will come again when I go. "

Dongguo Mingyun nodded, and suddenly pointed to several 'Yuanying stage maids' around, "Master Zhang, don't you need to choose a few?"

Zhang Hao frowned suddenly, "Is this what West Kunlun does?"

Dong Guo Mingyun smiled, but there was some emotion in his smile and words: "They are voluntary! Although we provide a relatively fair environment for casual cultivators, the world of cultivating... is not peaceful after all.

Sometimes the father died in battle, and the family has an old mother, or younger brothers and sisters... How many choices can there be.

At least, they can exchange some cultivation resources for their relatives. "

(Sorry for the headache, Calvin, it’s late. Try to make sure there are four updates today. In addition, the 20th will be free for 48 hours.)
