Chapter 345: Fang La's arrival

"I have already discussed this matter with His Majesty, and this is the holy decree."

Ruan Xiao Wu, who had been sitting in the main seat and calmly observing the various states of the navy high-ranking officers,

leisurely took out a document from his briefcase.

Ruan Xiao Qi couldn't wait to take it and look,

and found that it was indeed the permission to establish the Marine Corps specially granted by His Majesty,

which had already been stamped with the Son of Heaven's seal and the seal of the Five Armies Governor's Office, and could be executed as soon as it was issued.

"High, the Grand Commander is still high!"

A group of high-ranking officers gave Ruan Xiao Wu a thumbs up in their hearts.

They were wondering how the Grand Commander, as the number one person in the Great Gan Navy, could be so calm in the face of such a tricky problem;

it turned out he was prepared long ago and was sitting firmly on the fishing platform.

'Heh, if I didn't have this ability, how could I have sat firmly in the position of Grand Commander of the Navy as steady as Mount Tai?'

Ruan Xiao Wu, who took in the changes in the expressions of his subordinates, smiled proudly in his heart.

He knew that outside, and even within the navy under his command, there were people

who thought that he, the Grand Commander of the Navy, only reached this position because of His Majesty's holy favor.

But these people didn't think about it: could a person without any ability sit firmly in this position?

With His Majesty's wisdom and martial prowess, even if he were nostalgic, how could he keep a useless person in a position without doing anything?

In order to be worthy of this position and worthy of His Majesty's holy favor,

the price and effort he paid far exceeded the imagination of those who didn't know the inside story.

For example, just to write this permission to request the establishment of the Marine Corps,

he struggled through several nights, making his already increasingly barren top of his head even more sparse.

This morning, when he was trying to move the relatively numerous troops around to the barren center,

his 3,566th and 577th soldiers fell behind and could never come back, alas~

However, there was no need to tell these people under his command about these things. He looked calm,

indicating that these were all basic operations for him, the Grand Commander of the Navy, don't be surprised, everyone sit down.

"The Grand Commander is wise!"

The navy high-ranking officers who didn't know Ruan Xiao Wu's thoughts immediately sent a round of rainbow farts.

"Where, where, it's all because everyone is working hard, that's why His Majesty gave us this opportunity."

Although he was also feeling a bit floaty in his heart, Ruan Xiao Wu still replied modestly.

"The Grand Commander is too modest. In the subordinate's humble opinion, this is the merit of the Grand Commander alone~"

Those who could become navy high-ranking officers were also human experts; how could they not see that Ruan Xiao Wu was clearly very happy in his heart,

but had to maintain modesty to maintain his persona, so they immediately sent another round of rainbow farts.

"Haha, everyone is too flattering to this Commander, haha(((o(*? ▽? *)o)))."

Ruan Xiao Wu's mouth stretched wider and wider, almost reaching his ears.

The entire conference room was suddenly filled with laughter and a happy atmosphere.

With this imperial decree from His Majesty, their navy could finally be considered to have raised their eyebrows and exhaled!

……

Time passed like a white horse passing a crack, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed. Although due to changes in seasons and river channels,

most of the voyage from Hangzhou to Bianjing was upstream, Fang La and his party had already arrived in Bianliang.

"Such a prosperous city, worthy of being the capital of the Great Gan that is about to unify the world."

Standing at the bow of the ship, Fang La looked at the bustling crowd,

shoulder to shoulder, and the prosperous wharf, and couldn't help but sigh repeatedly.

"Where did this bumpkin come from? This old wharf is hardly prosperous;

the old wharf His Majesty ordered to be built before is what you call prosperous!"

Someone on a ship not far from Fang La's heard his sigh and complained with disdain.

"Forget it, forget it. If it weren't for the fact that you and I, brothers, had visited it,

how would we know that a wharf at least ten times larger than this one could be built in a few months?

It's normal for outsiders not to know; it's not surprising or strange."

His friend beside him said casually, not finding it strange.

"That is exactly the truth."

The complainer nodded in agreement, clearly agreeing with his friend's words.

Heaven have mercy, he was a native ancient person; where had he ever seen the speed of infrastructure in the industrial age?

Nothing else, just cement alone would be enough to make everyone who hadn't seen it dumbfounded.

In the past, building walls not only required yellow soil and lime, but sometimes for greater sturdiness and durability,

precious glutinous rice and eggs would be used, but now with one bag of Great Gan cement,

hey, it's not much worse than thousand-year-old bluestone.

"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, the commoners are indeed knowledgeable."

Fang La, who was treated as a bumpkin and complained about, didn't change his expression, having quite a bit of the demeanor of being able to wipe off spit and let it dry.

The ship docked at the wharf, and Fang La led the party from the Holy Duke State to Bianjing City.

The prosperity and stability along the way made him click his tongue in wonder: "This Gan Emperor is indeed a hero of his generation."

He was now even more certain of his decision to choose to surrender to the Great Gan.

As they approached within a hundred paces of the imperial city, Fang La saw two rows of Great Gan civil and military officials lined up on the left and right,

clearly there to welcome their party.

Fang La was not surprised that the Great Gan knew they would arrive today and was prepared.

With the Great Gan Emperor's strength and the convenience of the telegraph, it would be a strange thing if the Great Gan side didn't know when they would arrive.

And compared to the two rows of Great Gan civil and military officials in their official robes, the most eye-catching was undoubtedly the handsome young man standing at the very front,

who couldn't hide his majestic temperament even in casual clothes.

At the first sight of this young man, Fang La felt a wave of majesty rushing towards him,

making people want to bow down and submit to him.

At this moment, the young man was watching him and the people behind him with a smile on his lips.

"Civil and military officials welcome us, the Son of Heaven comes in person; Your Majesty, you are really making this humble subject feel unworthy."

Fang La didn't dare to be slow, hurriedly walked up to meet him, cupped his hands and bowed, and respectfully performed a great ceremony.

In the Great Gan, who else could it be but Zhang Jie, who single-handedly created the new dynasty of the Great Gan,

who had such temperament, such majesty, and could stand leisurely in front of the Great Gan's civil and military officials?

"See the Emperor, long live, long live, long long live our Emperor!"

The people behind Fang La had already been trained and neatly followed him in shouting long live.

"No need for formalities, everyone get up."

Zhang Jie smiled gently and waved his hand, signaling them all to get up.

The scene of hundreds or thousands of people bowing and shouting long live was indeed heart-stirring at first,

and the so-called highest achievement of a man—sleeping on the knees of a beauty and waking up to hold the power of the world—is nothing more than this.

Even with the endorsement of the shared space and Zhang Jie from the myriad worlds as his backing,

Zhang Jie couldn't avoid the vulgarity at first and had been complacent in his heart for a long time.

But as time went on, it was inevitable to feel a bit tired, and he didn't like these formalisms very much.

After waving for the others to get up, Zhang Jie walked forward slowly and reached out to help Fang La, who was bowing, up:

"Brother Fang, why the formalities?

You and I are intimate brothers; I have known you in spirit for a long time, and today I am fortunate to see you."
