Chapter 234: Hospitality From the Military (Additional Updates)
And all this is due to Cao Shuang.
"No, no, no, no, I can't stay here any longer."

"Take the things away, and you can quickly deliver the materials for building the city to me, and I'll leave as soon as possible."
? ? ?
It was clear that he had returned in triumph, but his face was full of melancholy.
Even the banquet specially organized for him was rejected directly.
After returning home, they had a good chat over wine, but the two of them had agreed at the beginning.
Cao Shuang almost threw the token into Chen Jianguo's hand, and immediately reached out to ask for exchange chips.
What they knew was that the two were exchanging the items and materials they needed, but those who didn't know thought they were engaging in some dirty deal.
After taking the token, Chen Jianguo frowned and asked, "Brother Ye, what happened."
"You have just returned from a great victory. You must not come back drunk tonight!"
"As for the materials and manpower, I have already prepared them and will deliver them all to you tomorrow morning."
With that said, he was going to carry Cao Shuang back to the station.
Cao Shuang, who knew that he had caused a big disaster, could not think about drinking and having fun now.
If nothing else happens, the dragon tribe will soon be chasing them.
Only by escaping from the East China Sea could he feel a little at ease.
"Hey, hey... no, buddy..."
"Give me the materials quickly, I'm in big trouble."
It was hard to resist the kindness, and the other party pushed Cao Shuang into the station almost forcefully.
In this case, Cao Shuang could only try his best to explain.
However, the result seems to be the opposite.
Chen Jianguo was in a good mood, feeling that he was being treated politely by Cao Shuang.
What does a one-page book say about big trouble?
It must be just an excuse to avoid drinking.
Upon hearing this, Chen Jianguo glanced at the token and immediately clapped his chest and said, "Don't worry, brother Ye, no matter what big trouble there is, as long as I, Chen Jianguo, am still here, I will be the first to die!"
"This...this is what you said, don't blame me if something happens."
"Of course!"
Judging from Chen Jianguo's performance, it is obvious that he is the same as Cao Shuang at the beginning.
I don't know that there is a terrifying group of orthodox dragons under the East China Sea.
It was hard to refuse such kindness, so Cao Shuang had no choice but to follow the other person's wishes.
After fighting for nearly two days and one night, Cao Shuang's stomach kept sending out hunger signals.
I wish I could just hold a cow and chew it.
With so many people from the military covering them, even if those guys come after them, as long as they take advantage of the chaos and retreat as soon as possible, they shouldn't be blamed here.
"This shouldn't count as me taking the initiative to implicate others..."
While whispering secretly in their hearts, the two came to the military camp...
Chicken, duck, fish, and even freshly caught king crab, tuna and other precious marine life.
Ten tables were filled with delicacies from the mountains and seas!
You know, the military has always been very disciplined, and this kind of extravagant behavior is strictly prohibited.
If it weren't for today's great joy, in order to welcome Cao Shuang's triumphant return, the quality of this meal would be unmatched even during the New Year.
Such a big banquet was held just to prepare food for Zu Cao Shuang.
If he didn't come in the end, then who would see this scene of lavish pomp and circumstance the most?
"I wonder why this guy Chen Jianguo tried so hard to pull me in. With so many delicious things, he was really afraid that I would miss them and not eat them, haha."
Anyone who comes with such a hospitality will be shocked.
Cao Shuang was also very satisfied with this.
Collapse~
There was a loud noise outside the military camp.
As if a switch had been triggered, Cao Shuang immediately turned around and wielded his sword: "I'm really sorry, everyone, you are asking for your blessings!"
"Brother Ye, what do you mean?"
"Is it possible that this military exercise has disturbed you?"
"My order is that after all the soldiers have finished eating, except for those on guard duty, all others should go back to their rooms to rest. There is no need for additional training today. All soldiers are on leave!"
…
"Is that what happened..."
Thinking that the dragon clan was chasing them, Cao Shuang immediately walked away, leaving the military to clean up the mess.
Little did he know that he mistook the military drill for an invasion.
Chen Jianguo, who was capable of misunderstanding, also gave Cao Shuang, the distinguished guest, face and immediately ordered a stop.
Your brother is connected heart to heart with you, and you are playing tricks with your brother.
Your brother holds you in the palm of your hand, and you use your brother as a gun.
He immediately planned to leave the army behind and escape alone to figure out the reason. Cao Shuang, who felt a little guilty in his heart, said awkwardly:
"No, don't be careless in resisting foreign enemies. Just do what you should do."
"Brother Ye, what was this just now?"
"Oh...it must be that I haven't slept for too long and was talking in my sleep."
Do you talk in your sleep with your eyes open during the day? This kid doesn't think I'm stupid, does he?
Regarding Cao Shuang's sudden movement and puzzling words, Chen Jianguo was confused, but had no way of knowing, so he had to pretend that nothing happened.
"That's it, brother Ye, we won't go home until we get drunk today!"
After confirming that there was nothing unusual outside, Cao Shuang took his seat with peace of mind.
The next day…
"Brother Ye, the materials have been gathered. In terms of manpower, I will send people to Lingyun Villa to follow your orders in the next two days."
"If there is any difficulty in the future, our military will definitely come to your aid!"
Outside the military station, Chen Jianguo followed Cao Shuang to the camp to see him off.
After counting the corresponding materials, Cao Shuang smoothly put them into his backpack.
With a serious look on his face he said:
"If Brother Jianguo really has this intention, it will be fulfilled in twenty-eight days."
"Twenty-eight days later? What do you mean?"
"I don't know either. Anyway... you and I just need to remember our friendship yesterday."
Thinking that Cao Shuang was keeping things a secret, he didn't know that Cao Shuang really didn't know what the great turmoil that China was about to face was.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that it is of utmost importance to win over other forces as soon as possible.
That being said, if the other party's principled interests are violated at that time, they may not remember the scene of yesterday.
At least, Cao Shuang won't!
"By the way, Brother Jianguo, when you are exercising, it's best not to disturb the sea creatures at will, as it will bring you fatal disasters!"
"Oh? Brother Ye, is this too sensitive? It's true that there are sea monsters in the East China Sea, but as far as I know, they are not within our military area."
"Even if there are, they may not be opponents!"
Looking at Chen Jianguo who was so confident, Cao Shuang didn't know where to start for a while.
Tell the other party that the entire East China Sea is the area of the dragon clan, including the military base?
This is for Chen Jianbin, who has never seen those monsters.
They would definitely choose to laugh it off, and they might even mutter behind their backs that Cao Shuang was exaggerating.
Fortunately, the Dragon Clan had other more important things to do, otherwise Cao Shuang's hiding place, that is, the military base, would have been razed to the ground!
In this way, the future safety of the military base built on the Dragon Clan can only depend on God's will.
Cao Shuang pondered for a moment and said, "If Brother Jianguo is so confident, then we have a long way to go."
"With these materials, I have to hurry back to build the main city."
"Okay, you and I both have important things to do, so I hope we have a long way to go!"
The tokens that should be obtained have been obtained, and the thank-you banquet has ended.
At this time, there is no reason to keep Cao Shuang.
After the two shook hands and said goodbye, Cao Shuang officially returned to the guild base.
