The Griffin Knight is too conspicuous, if he openly appeared in Zhongzhou City, wouldn't it tell everyone that Wangcheng sent troops over? If Chutian takes extreme actions, the city residents may be implicated!
It is best to capture Chutian without anyone noticing, and try not to cause riots in Zhongzhou as much as possible.
"Don't scare the snake, you hide your mounts to respond, then infiltrate into the main city of Zhongzhou, look for Chutian's whereabouts, and then wait for an opportunity to capture him in one fell swoop!" Gu Qianqiu arranged a task for Cao Bao and the others: "After the arrival of Nanzhou Sifanghou, Let's call Chu Tian to him again and send him to Wangcheng for trial!"
"The great scholar..."
"Just take people, I'm in charge of collecting Chu Tian's criminal evidence."
"Obey!"
"Chutian is extremely arrogant and tyrannical. I'm afraid there are experts hidden by his side. Even the special envoys of the Nangong family's true soul level have been abolished. Be careful when you act!"
"Please rest assured, university students, we promise to complete the task!"
"Go!"
The selection of Knights of the Royal Palace is extremely strict and demanding. Not only is the strongest knight group in the kingdom, but they are also brave and resourceful to fight in various situations. Any member sent to the elite Gale Cavalry can be qualified Captain.
This is the special operations force of the Nanxia Kingdom. They just kidnapped one person. What is the difficulty for them
Cao Bao led his palace knights first, and immediately pretended to infiltrate Zhongzhou City first.
Gu Qianqiu went to the city normally as a study tour scholar through Zhongzhou port. However, when Gu Qianqiu arrived at the port of Zhongzhou City, he was completely stunned by the sight in front of him.
Which of the eight states and counties in Nanxia has never been to Gu Qianqiu
Qingzhou Port is the largest in scale, because Qingzhou is the country's source of resources, and resource transportation is very developed. Qingzhou Port Ferry is berthing 200 large ships all year round, which is very spectacular in terms of the scene.
When I came to Zhongzhou today, I was surprised to find that the size of Zhongzhou port was twice as large as before. At least three to four hundred large ships were moored, and ten to twenty thousand stevedores were busy in full swing. The scene was very shocking!
What is even more surprising is that Zhongzhou Wharf is still expanding, and in about half a month, the size of the port will double again!
This is like a prosperous and prosperous scene of shipping trade!
When did Zhongzhou become so developed
In the vicinity of Zhongzhou City, countless factories are even more busy. Beast carts drag materials in and out, and various finished products are continuously transported to the warehouse. It is a prosperous and prosperous scene.
Weird, weird.
More than half a month has passed since the Zhongzhou Rebellion.
Instead of any decline, Zhongzhou City has become more prosperous than before, which is really an incredible phenomenon. When Gu Qianqiu was in a daze, he suddenly felt that the sky was sinking. When Gu Qianqiu raised his head, his jaw almost fell to the ground.
What's this
The three ovals in the sky, round giants like giant eggs, are slowly coming from one direction at a fairly fast speed. Gu Qianqiu has never seen this thing before, it looks like a hot air balloon, but it is definitely not an ordinary hot air balloon, because this thing is very fast and obviously has a powerful power system.
Each oval dome is hung with a container-like basket.
Gu Qianqiu watched helplessly as the "Big Egg" floated slowly outside Zhongzhou City. It stopped firmly above a large warehouse, and then slowly sank. When it was less than three meters from the ground, the big container-like basket was opened. Two people stood up and threw bags of heavy ore in front of the warehouse.
The three "Great Eggs" have an astonishing cargo capacity, piled up like a hill.
After unloading the cargo, the giant egg slowly floated up again, and slowly left in one direction.
The shock in Gu Qianqiu's heart is difficult to describe in words. At the same time, as a scholar, he is always full of curiosity about new things.
He walked to the warehouse and saw the moving workers were busy, and asked curiously: "Brother, what are these things flying in the sky?"
"You just came to Zhongzhou City!" A hardcover worker said with a cigarette in his mouth, carelessly but very proudly: "This thing can only be seen in Zhongzhou. This is called a miracle airship. A small cargo ship!"
"That's right! These ores were sent from Tiannan City. It seems to be called..."
"Hidden shadow stone!"
"Yes, yes, it's called this."
"This miraculous airship flew directly to the mine to load, and then sent it to Zhongzhou City from afar."
"You have to know that the mine is in the deep mountains and old forests, and beast carts can't get in at all. If you want to transport the ore from it to Tiannan City, it will take a lot of effort, let alone transport it from Tiannan City to Zhongzhou City. The process will not take seven or ten days, and it is not safe! With this miraculous airship, the efficiency of mining and transportation has been increased by ten times!"
It's amazing!
This is definitely an air cargo vehicle with a serious use!
The resources in this era are too rich. In fact, there are not many resources that can be mined in a kingdom, even a small country. The vast majority are due to geographical or environmental factors, and there is no way to excavate them.
For example, Qingling in Qingzhou.
That is the largest resource area in Nanxia Kingdom!
Today, the development level is less than a few percent of the resources surveyed, why? It is nothing more than high mountains and dangerous waters, difficult to enter, difficult to transport, so you can only watch but not pick!
"With this empty boat, wouldn't it be able to replace ship shipping?"
"It's not possible. Although the cargo capacity of the empty boat is not small, it is far worse than that of the big ship. In addition, the distance traveled by the empty boat is limited, and it is only suitable for transportation within the state and county, and it cannot be used for transcontinental transportation."
Another worker interjected, "Why are you so anxious? The Miracle Chamber of Commerce has just built an empty boat, and there are only three of them in the world. If it doesn't work now, won't it work in the future?"
"That's true, that's true."
"Is there anything the Miracle Chamber of Commerce can't do?"
These workers chattered one after another, their faces full of admiration for the Miracle Chamber of Commerce.
Gu Qianqiu fell silent. The appearance of this kind of airship is really very meaningful. Although the Miracle Chamber of Commerce and Chutian are doing all kinds of evil, they still have some skills!
Gu Qianqiu took this opportunity to ask again: "I heard that Zhongzhou is very chaotic now, is there such a thing?"
"Central state chaos? Birds!" These workers stared: "Central state used to be quite chaotic, and those nobles suppressed it, and we couldn't even breathe. Since the Miracle Chamber of Commerce eliminated the three major families, the atmosphere in Zhongzhou has become much more relaxed. , even the other middle and small nobles became friendly. In less than half a month, our salary has tripled!"
"That's right! My son was able to go to Zhongzhou College, all because of the bursary provided by the Charity Fund of the Miracle Chamber of Commerce!" A middle-aged man looked happy, "The tuition fees are all paid by the Miracle Chamber of Commerce. Now, how much money I earn is my own, and my life is too small." It has become much better. From now on, when my son finishes his studies, he must be allowed to work in the Miracle Merchant Guild, so that he will be honored!"
"Old man, we still have to work. If there is nothing else, please let me go!"
"That's right, that's right, the Miracle Merchant will offer us such a high salary, and we have to work hard to repay it."
Gu Qianqiu was a little dazed.
Judging from the eyes and expressions of these workers, these words are definitely from the heart.
This is completely different from what Gu Qianqiu expected!
The chaos in Zhongzhou caused tens of thousands of casualties, the sudden destruction of the three major families, and the sudden collapse of the balance of power. This is enough to cause a large-scale panic in Zhongzhou, and various ethnic groups will also take the opportunity to compete and annex each other. Zhongzhou should be in chaos.
What's more, Chutian led water thieves into the city!
These thieves have been entrenched in Sizhou Lake for a long time, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of crimes. After they enter the city, they will not commit any crimes? Isn't this bullshit? !
Who knew that Zhongzhou City, instead of being hot, became more prosperous than before, the people were not in chaos, and life was better than before.
Is there a discrepancy between the information and the actual situation
No matter what, it is an indisputable fact that Chutian launched the water bandits to attack the city, caused the chaos in Zhongzhou, annexed the three major families privately, and severely injured the special envoy of Wangcheng! These few crimes are enough for him to die a hundred times!
He insulted Gu Qianqiu's disciples, and even insulted Gu Qianqiu himself. This is an act of provocation against the great scholar himself!
No matter what, we must arrest him before talking!
Cao Bao and the others have already taken action, and it is estimated that Chutian will be caught soon, and Sifang Hou will also arrive in Zhongzhou soon. I should hurry up and collect evidence!
Gu Qianqiu did not continue wandering outside the city, but went directly into Zhongzhou City to investigate and collect evidence.
At dusk, Zhongzhou City gradually darkened.
Strange, why are the roadside spar lights gone
When Gu Qianqiu glanced at the streets and alleys, the main city was originally equipped with spar lights, but now all of them have been artificially dismantled, and replaced by strange tower-like objects.
The tower-like building is about one foot high, and it is topped with a huge glass ball.
Are there no lights in Zhongzhou City
Hmph, what a Chutian, even the lights are removed, isn't it very unsafe for the city dwellers to live at night? This is obviously not taking the life of the city people seriously!
Remember, remember!
In fact, the lack of public facilities in the city has nothing to do with Chutian. This is the responsibility of the city owner, okay? Gu Qianqiu believed that it was Chutian who disturbed Zhongzhou and caused the destruction of public facilities, so it should be his responsibility!
Gu Qianqiu hasn't remembered it yet.
Suddenly, a bright light flashed across the surroundings, and the entire Zhongzhou City seemed to be lit up in an instant. All the streets were brightly lit, and the light illuminated the streets as bright as day!
Gu Qianqiu backed away in fright: "What is this?!"
"Haha, where are you country bumpkins!" An adult led a little girl through the street, and the little girl was amused by Gu Qianqiu's appearance, "I don't even know electric lights, shame, shame!"
The adult also showed disdain, but said on his mouth: "Girl, how can you be so rude? You have to respect the old man. You know, this electric light is not available everywhere."
Gu Qianqiu looked embarrassed: "What's the matter with this electric light?"
"This is an invention of the Miracle Chamber of Commerce. The cost is very low. Apart from Tiannan City, Zhongzhou City has the most." The city residents all said proudly: "In order to improve the lives of the city residents, the Miracle Chamber of Commerce is going to help build five thousand lighthouses. There are slums, and our life is much more convenient.”
The big and the young didn't bother to continue talking nonsense with the soil beetle, and went shopping on their own.
Gu Qianqiu stared dully in front of him. In this instantly brightly lit city, the top of the original tower-like building burst into bright light from the glass ball. This light is much brighter than spar, and the lighting effect is very stable!
Electric light, a fully automatic lighting tool
Gu Qianqiu didn't find any signs of manipulation. Nine out of ten it was automatically turned on according to the intensity of the sensing light. It's not simple, it's really not simple... When did so many interesting things appear in Zhongzhou City
However, this is not much use.
It is nothing more than replacing the spar lamp!
Gu Qianqiu didn't believe it anymore, Chu Tian committed such a big crime, could he not even find any evidence of his crime
There must be!
