Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 731 Victory in Battle: Negotiating Conditions

Immediately afterwards, the two pushed open the door and entered.

Upon entering the house, Chu Chen saw a dozen or so machine gunners with dusty faces standing inside.

An air compressor is being installed.

It's important to understand that there isn't much oxygen left in a blocked mine shaft, so it's crucial to introduce air as quickly as possible to ensure the miners' safety.

Following the machine gunner's directions, Chu Chen arrived at the top of a dry well ahead.

Looking down, you can see that an LED light has been installed at the bottom of the dry well.

"Would you like to go down, young master?"

"I'll go down and take a look. You guys keep working."

After Chu Chen finished speaking, he put on a headlamp and held a powerful flashlight in his hand.

Then, with a leap, he entered the dry well.

After descending into the dry well, Chu Chen discovered that the once dark mine was now brightly lit.

The group of miners from before were now illuminated as well.

At this moment, Chu Chen looked at them and saw that each of them was completely dark-skinned.

The clothes he wore could only be described as strips of cloth.

"Hey buddy, what's your name?"

Chu Chen approached the burly man from before and asked.

"Reporting to senior, my name is Huang Hou. I was originally a first-rank royal bodyguard with a sword, but my cultivation was destroyed by Ma Keqing, and now I am a cripple."

Yellow throat? I'm still using small intestines, but the name sounds good, and it tastes delicious.

So he jokingly said, "You guessed right, you must have a brother named Zhu Ji, right!"

After hearing this, Huang Hou looked at Chu Chen in surprise: "Senior is a divine being! You actually know the name of the Left Guardian?"

Holy crap, there really is! It's incredibly nutritious. Back in the day, after delivering takeout, I'd always grab a few skewers.

"Um...excuse me, where is this Brother Zhu Ji?"

After hearing this, Huang Hou turned around and walked towards the crowd, then pulled someone out from among them.

This person was tall and thin, just as he was named, but like Huang Hou, he had no cultivation whatsoever.

It seems that there's still a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.

"Alright, Huang Hou, Zhu Jun, are you two willing to serve me and lead everyone to continue mining?"

"I will not treat you unfairly. Although you have lost your cultivation, I will still let you live on the ground and live a life of luxury."

After hearing this, Huang Hou immediately pulled Zhu Yi down to kneel.

Zhu Yi was completely bewildered. He knew someone had come and had even opened a large hole there, sealing off the previous entrance.

I never expected it to be this person right in front of me.

So they had no choice but to kowtow to Chu Chen along with Huang Hou.

"Senior, rest assured, although my brother and I have lost our cultivation, we are still capable of managing this group of people."

"As long as you give us two brothers a chance, we will definitely handle this matter properly."

After listening, Chu Chen nodded: "In that case, it's settled. You should pass on this message now. I can't guarantee anything else, but it's certain that you'll make money and live a wealthy life."

"There's one more thing I need to tell you: Ma Keqing is dead, killed by my hand."

After saying that, Chu Chen stopped wasting words with them and stood up, then walked down the dry well to the surface.

After arriving, Chu Chen immediately took out a female machine gunner from inside the house.

Then they changed her into a set of clothes from this world.

They took her out, and the two of them went directly along the palace wall to the palace gate.

At the palace gate, Ma Keqing's body was hanging there, covered in blood.

The original offensive and defensive battle has ceased.

All of Mark Qing's troops squatted on the ground, with a pile of weapons laid out in front of them.

Li Haoran's men have already occupied the entire Central City.

Meanwhile, Chu Chen's men were waiting outside the central city for further instructions from him.

Upon seeing Chu Chen appear, Li Haoran quickly went to greet him.

"Brother Chu, you've arrived. This time, we owe a great debt to your divine weapon. Otherwise, my Li family would not have won so easily."

"I'll say it again: the future Anchang Kingdom will belong to you, Brother Chu, half of it."

After listening, Chu Chen shook his head: "Patriarch Li, no, I should call you Your Majesty the Emperor now, my request remains the same. I have no interest in Anchang, I am only interested in the Jade Essence."

"No need to say anything else, just hand over the royal mines to me as soon as possible after they have been organized, as well as the jade essence and mines of the two major families."

"Don't take me for a fool. I know exactly how many there are."

Hearing Chu Chen say this, Li Haoran immediately became happy.

As for the mineral veins and those other things, those are just the existing ones. Anchang is such a large place, who knows how many more mineral veins are yet to be discovered.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this wave was entirely won by Chu Chen.

Therefore, no matter how you calculate it, Li Haoran made a profit.

Moreover, from then on, the four major families in the central city were gone, leaving only the Li family.

"Brother Chu, don't worry, I can give you all of these. Just wait for my good news."

Chu Chen nodded after listening: "Patriarch Li, I am a straightforward person, so I will speak frankly from the outset."

“As long as your promise is not fulfilled, my brothers outside will not retreat.”

After saying this, Chu Chen bowed to Li Haoran and his group, then turned and left.

Despite the previous heavy fighting, the people in the central city were not affected.

So Chu Chen took the woman and went straight to Central City Street.

Immediately afterwards, the two went into a dental clinic.

When the broker saw Chu Chen and his companion, who were dressed in fine clothes, enter, he immediately came to greet them.

"Young master and madam, do you want to buy a house, or maids and guards?"

"A house, and it's the house I've got my eye on. I'll tell you the location. Can you find the owner?"

The shop assistant smiled after hearing this: "Young master, there's nothing we can't do. Please tell me the location of the house."

Chu Chen nodded after listening. Logically speaking, if he had just asked Li Haoran for that piece of land, there would have been no problem.

But this way, sooner or later Li Haoran will discover the mineral vein hidden beneath the palace.

So, if you let artificial humans buy that piece of land, who would know there's a mine underneath?

"Alright, then I'll trouble you to come with me, young man."

After saying that, he led the broker's assistants toward the house.

Upon arriving at the residence, the broker waved his hand and pulled out a map of the area from his pocket.

They immediately found out who owned the house.

“Young master, this man is a grain merchant from the central city. This residence should have been prepared by him for his concubine. I don’t know why he hasn’t moved in.”

After saying that, he handed the map to Chu Chen.
