Chapter 1187 A Prosperous and Peaceful Era: Expanding Development
Ji Muqing accepted Chu Chen's arrangement unconditionally.
In order to better control the country and prevent it from going astray, Chu Chen agreed to Ji Muqing's request to enter his room that very night.
Inside the room, a large television was playing a USB drive brought from modern society.
In the dim pink light, Ji Muqing smiled radiantly, her long-cherished wish finally fulfilled.
So they studied and exchanged ideas until dawn.
The next day, Ji Muqing, with a face as beautiful as a peach blossom, abandoned her usual gentle demeanor and adopted a cold, high-ranking posture, convening the first Dragon Kingdom Development Conference in front of a group of officials below.
Chu Chen, Chen Qingxuan, and Mu Qiu Gan Tian Gan Di—the five of them—didn't care about any of this.
The two were currently on a hilltop, having a barbecue and drinking beer.
With a beautiful young woman in each arm, Chen Qingxuan asked Chu Chen mysteriously, "How does it feel?"
"How does it feel?"
"Your room light stayed on all night last night. Don't tell me you were just discussing life?"
"Get lost, you pervert! Muqiu, kill him for me..."
In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.
Over the past decade, the entire Dragon Kingdom has entered a phase of rapid development.
However, what made Chu Chen uncomfortable was the world inside the city walls.
For ten years, Chu Chen and Chen Qingxuan had not entered the city. On this day, Chu Chen, carrying hunting rifles, led Chen Qingxuan to the outside of the city wall again.
Seeing the rapid development of the Dragon Kingdom, Mu Qiu and his brothers Gan Tian and Gan Di, as the lord of the territory, never stopped learning.
So after playing with Chu Chen for half a year, she took the initiative to ask to enter the secular world and learn new science and technology.
Chu Chen didn't bother with him, so at this moment, only Chen Qingxuan was left by Chu Chen's side again.
"You drunkard, do you want to go in and take a look?"
"Didn't that old man Yangyan say we weren't allowed to go in?"
"Heh, he can't just say no. Who knows what's inside? Besides, don't you want to go in and see the brothel inside?"
As soon as Chu Chen finished saying the word "brothel," he saw Chen Qingxuan sling his hunting rifle over his back and rush straight toward the city gate.
"Holy crap, such a big reaction! Wait for me!"
Chu Chen shouted as he chased after them.
At the city gate, several guards opened a small window and looked at the two with hostile expressions: "People from outside are not allowed to enter the city!"
"I'm looking for Zhai Gang!" Chu Chen said without thinking, stating their leader's name.
As expected, upon hearing the name Zhai Gang, the guard hesitated for a moment, but then became serious: "Does Your Excellency know our general?"
"Go and inform them that Chu Chen has come to see you!"
Chu Chen didn't show much courtesy to the guards.
This is also the fault of Yang Yan. After the Heavenly Emperor left, he and Chong Jibo disappeared on the spot without saying anything.
Therefore, if Chu Chen wanted to enter the city, he had no choice but to knock on the door.
If we could contact Kagerou, we wouldn't need to go through all this trouble.
However, Chu Chen wasn't worried. Now that the cannibals had been wiped out, if they really wouldn't open the door, he'd just bombard them with cannons.
After hearing this, the guard closed the small window and ran behind him. A short while later, the city gates opened wide.
A familiar figure appeared before Chu Chen: "Haha, Young Master Chu, long time no see! Please come in!"
"Young Master Chu's accomplishments outside have put us to shame. Envoy Yang has given us all orders that we must treat Young Master Chu well once he arrives."
Chu Chen looked at him with a smile, his heart unmoved.
But no matter what, he was a border general, so we still had to be polite: "Oh, it's been so long since I've seen General Zhai, I've missed you dearly."
After saying that, Chu Chen stepped forward and warmly extended his hand to him.
Zhai Gang hesitated for a moment, then followed suit and stretched out his hand.
The two shook hands and headed straight for Zhai Gang's artistic study.
Chen Qingxuan followed behind without saying a word, his heart pounding with anxiety. He thought to himself, "Weren't we supposed to come in to find a brothel? How did we end up here again?"
After the three of them sat down as host and guest, Zhai Gang asked, "May I ask what brings Young Master Chu here today?"
"It's nothing serious. We parted in a hurry last time, and I didn't even have a chance to properly see this long-standing human world."
"Since I have some free time, I thought I'd come in with Qingxuan to take a look. General Zhai, could you tell me about the situation inside?"
Zhai Gang's eyes darted around after listening, but he had many thoughts in his mind.
When Yangyan returned from outside, he told them that the outside world had changed, so everyone should gradually prepare to accept new things.
Chu Chen came from outside this time, saying he wanted to take a look at the city. Could it be that he came in advance to investigate? Could it be that reforms are about to be implemented here?
It is said that the outside world is a world where everyone is equal. If that is the case, then are these nobles also supposed to be equal to those commoners outside?
Impossible, absolutely impossible. If that were the case, wouldn't all the resources they've worked so hard to control be shared with those lowly people? We absolutely cannot agree to that.
However, Chu Chen is Yang Yan's disciple, and at this moment, only Yang Yan and Chong Jibo remain in the delegation. This is not a good situation.
If Chu Chen didn't have Yang Yan behind him, Zhai Gang would probably want to kill him right now, nipping this change in the bud.
But he dared not; who knew if Yang Yan was watching all of this?
It seems I need to spend more time with Chongjibo.
"Hehe, Young Master Chu, there aren't many fun places inside. It's just a big city and various other settlements."
"I advise Young Master Chu to return to that pure world outside where everyone is equal."
Chu Chen was puzzled after hearing this. Something was wrong. What did that old man Yang Yan say to them?
Looking into Zhai Gang's eyes, Chu Chen suddenly sensed a hint of hatred.
Upon further reflection, Chu Chen realized that the people inside were once human nobles.
If they wanted to create a world like the Milky Way Realm, where everyone is relatively equal, wouldn't that shake their interests?
If I come here by myself, this guy will definitely misunderstand that I'm here to investigate the market.
So, you definitely won't get anything out of him. If Yang Yan hadn't been there, he probably would have been assassinated by this guy by now.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen shook his head: "Since that's the case, then there's probably nothing fun to do. Let's just wander around by ourselves!"
After saying this, Chu Chen and Chen Qingxuan got up to take their leave and headed straight into the city.
Just after Chu Chen and Chen Qingxuan left, Zhai Gang also leaped onto his horse, took a shortcut, and headed straight for the city.
He wanted to report this matter to the city lord and see how the city lord would decide. Killing him was not out of the question, as long as it was done discreetly!
