Chapter 108: The Meatballs are Ready

Zhang Gui had known Zhang Jiujiang for ten years and they were truly as close as brothers, but he didn't expect him to have a hidden "lick-dog" attribute.

Zhang Gui clearly indicated that he was guarding against the Hanli female teacher of "Qingdou Academy."

But Zhang Jiujiang, because he subconsciously didn't want to tarnish the goddess's image, yet had a loyal heart that believed in Zhang Gui.

So he forcibly associated the bad things with the innocent male teacher of the academy.

Truly helpless.

Sighing, Zhang Gui patted his shoulder helplessly, "Jiujiang, I didn't expect your mind to be so twisted."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Jiujiang didn't even realize his own subtle thoughts and asked inexplicably.

"Nothing." Zhang Gui laughed, "Since you intend to continue staying by the side of your classmates and teachers, I will follow the original plan and go to Giant Serpent Head Island to help you get prisoners of war.

So that you can have a better explanation."

"The situation has changed like this, isn't it redundant to do this kind of whitewashing?"

"Whitewashing will never be redundant."

Zhang Gui smiled slightly: "For you guys, it's better to be still than to move.

I estimate that I will continue to stay in Zhihai Town for a while and wait for the situation in the Southern Kingdom to become clear before leaving.

It just happens to be convenient for me to act during this period."

"You have a large foundation to guard now, and you are going to sea for me?"

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm not going to sea entirely to help you fool people and earn reputation." Zhang Gui didn't let his little friend persuade him anymore, "There are other big businesses to do."

Feeling that the words to be said had been finished, he stood up,

"It's about time.

You go to the dock to find your exiled immortal teacher, Kirin classmates, blow your cowhide, criticize the current situation, and discuss state affairs.

My brother is going to struggle in the outer sea!"

As the words fell, Zhang Jiujiang saw his little friend's figure sway and disappear in front of him...

Giant Serpent Head Island, True Dragon Kingdom, Shishi Capital.

It had been more than a year since the activation of the wonder "Heavenly Works Opening All Things."

Towns, farms, pastures, workshops, water conservancy facilities that could easily and richly provide food, clothing, housing, and transportation for 500,000 people.

Even everything including traffic rails had been built.

The metal houses transformed by the wonder had also automatically connected to the earth fire and were transformed into extremely simple elixir rooms.

108 metal craftsmen were transformed into mechanical elixir masters, from then on producing "Food Pills" specifically for transcendent beings to fill their stomachs day and night.

At the eighth quarter of the Si hour, which was about 10:50 in the morning.

Zhang Gui, who had just teleported to the island not long ago, stood in front of the elixir room covering an area of ten mu.

Looking at the more than one hundred precious cauldrons inside, with magma flowing below and blue smoke curling above, he felt inexplicably comfortable.

He couldn't help but open his mouth and take a heavy breath.

Suddenly, under the action of the main Divine Cluster "Swallow Crow" in his body, the heat in front of him gathered.

It turned into flowing fire and surged into his throat, rushing straight to his lower abdomen, burning his whole body.

Because of this, the temperature in the elixir room dropped sharply, and the temperature inside and outside the precious cauldron vibrated due to the heat and cold.

A series of deafening roars sounded.

The cauldron lids were blown open, and countless poorly refined food pills flew everywhere, falling to the ground and burning into charred meatballs.

A Si cauldron and five elixir masters who were managing the elixir room felt their teeth ache with heartache.

Even if the production accident caused by the Emperor had nothing to do with them, the performance bonus for the 108 furnaces of food pills that were missing was clearly reduced by one day.

Zhang Gui was also a bit embarrassed and said with a dry laugh:

"Oh my, why did the cauldron explode? It's really a pity.

The matter is my fault, and I am responsible for the compensation.

Song Si cauldron, you continue, you continue."

The elixir room did not belong to the True Dragon Kingdom's state assets, but was a private property specifically retained by Zhang Gui.

Those who could work inside were the "old people" in the True Dragon Kingdom personally selected by him.

Although they had no rank, they had quite a high status in society, and their income was also quite objective.

And after more than a year of long-distance and short-distance contact, and more than twenty times of chicken soup nourishment, these people were even more convinced from the bottom of their hearts that Zhang Gui was a truly approachable and great leader.

They had increasingly thick worship for him, as well as fear of his supreme power and powerful strength that could never be erased.

This kind of emotion, in the eyes of the people whose wisdom had been opened in Zhang Gui's previous life, was simply foolish.

But for a slave rescued in a feudal transcendent world, it was incomparably natural.

Their emotional intelligence and cognitive understanding of the underlying logic of society, if converted to Zhang Gui's previous life, I am afraid they would not even be as good as children.

And what kind of emotion would a child under ten years old have for the only parent who loves them and whom they deeply believe they can never resist!

The Si cauldron and elixir masters bowed deeply, but no one pretended to refuse the Emperor's kindness.

And one leaf knows autumn, this behavior clearly indicates:

A completely brand-new human social moral and ethical order system with "equality" as the core, based on certain restrictions that can never be erased, is slowly taking shape.

The initial beginning is, even if I am working for the Emperor, if it is not my mistake, I don't need to take responsibility!

Zhang Gui felt that his Divine Authority and element power had undergone a qualitative change due to the quantitative change in the people's inner thoughts, and couldn't help but reveal an irrepressible joy.

"The change in the will of the mysterious domain has occurred, and the overall sublimation affecting the material level is not far away."

He thought happily in his heart.

He strolled to the main hall of Guiyang Palace and took ten pills each of Refined Pills, Liangfu Pills, and Pure Fu Pills from the underground treasury.

Packed them in a Western-style official bag and disappeared without a trace.

In recent days, Zhang Gui would no longer specifically meet with Song Wenming and Sang Gui if it was not necessary, not to mention the other civil and military officials under his command.

With the rapid expansion of the True Dragon Kingdom's population.

The entire national political system had fallen into a busy adaptation period, and even the smallest sesame officials had to work overtime every day.

Making Zhang Gui feel moved and emotional.

Although he had some achievements in his previous life, he never escaped the fate of being a cow or horse.

And in this life, although the start was ordinary, now he was a candidate for the throne, and he was the emperor of a grassroots team.

It would be too tragic to be kidnapped by the so-called public opinion emotion and continue the life of a cow or horse.

So except for the basic large-scale "chicken soup meeting" once a month, he didn't see them at all if it was not necessary...

"Silver Fish Street" in Civilization Pioneer City, where small merchants gathered.

The scars caused by the Moon God Ark attack last time had faded a lot.

However, the black-brown blood-fat traces left by the zombies on the stone floor were still vaguely visible.

The blood stench emitted had not completely dissipated.

Zhang Gui came to Silver Fish Street according to the address he had agreed with Salisa a few days ago.

Very elegantly covering his mouth and nose.

A blonde boy with patches on his clothes, but washed clean.

Smelling of soap, seeing his pretentious look, immediately leaned over.

From the interlayer of the "smoke box" hanging on his neck, he took out a fragrant handkerchief.

Blocked it in front of Zhang Gui.
