Chapter 548 Trouble or Opportunity?
Time always slips away inadvertently. Regarding the matter of nuclear radiation, Li Xian did what all politicians would do—cover the cover.
No way, the issue of nuclear radiation cannot be discussed for the time being.
First, there is the issue of confidentiality. Li Xian made up his mind not to mention any words related to "nuclear". I let you outsiders know what the Shang Kingdom actually has.
Second, there is no concept of nuclear radiation in the outside world at all, and it is still stuck in concepts such as "bad air" and "yin air". Since the outside world does not have this concept, why bother asking for trouble.
The issue of nuclear radiation is a series of troubles, and it is difficult to explain clearly.
Thirdly, the explanation given by Emperor Zhao Guo is very wonderful, Li Xian must admit that he still needs to learn, and this statement must also be used for reference.
As soon as the two countries began to cooperate, Emperor Zhao solved a big problem for the Shang Kingdom--that's great! Bravo! It is completely in line with the understanding of Xianyu.
In addition, there is a fourth reason: a sense of mystery. Preserving a certain sense of mystery can make outsiders a little vigilant and careful about the Shang Kingdom, and dare not act rashly. This is also the best cover for self-protection.
In the past few days, Prime Minister Sima Xuan and the Crown Prince of the State of Jin came to see him successively, wanting to thank him; but under the advice of Li Yuanming and Yan Ze'an, Li Xian avoided them all.
According to the outside world, this mediation is entirely based on Sima Xuan's loyalty, and it can't be repeated; if there is another time, he will be sent away.
The reason for this is to clarify the political position of the Shang Kingdom. The last time I helped, it was purely a personal relationship, not a national or political relationship. For this reason, Li Xian did not ask for tributes, tributes, etc. from Jin.
Jin Guo wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to build relationships, but it failed.
Now Li Xian is most concerned about the issue of nuclear radiation. According to the news brought by Zhao Guo, the impact of the nuclear explosion this time was a bit severe, and even alarmed many old monsters. This does not seem to be good news for Shang Kingdom.
"Actually, this is also an opportunity!" Li Yuanming had nothing to worry about, "Master, there is still a relationship of interests between strangers and between people. As long as the young master can provide these people with sufficient benefits, you can even These old monsters... the old man took it for his own use.
But for a cultivator, the greatest benefit is nothing more than ascension.
So from my point of view, this time is actually our chance! The previous explosion was just used to prove that we have the ability to send people to the fairy world!
As long as we grasp this point, I believe that we will get a blessing in disguise this time, and maybe attract many experts to join us! "
The brain trusters around offered advice one after another, gradually dispelling Li Xian's worries.
Not only that, but under Li Yuanming's suggestion, Li Xian immediately ordered people to start building a luxurious villa area, prepare delicacies from mountains and seas, and prepare for a luxurious life with the characteristics of the Shang Kingdom. For the upcoming "trouble", Li Xian still made comprehensive preparations.
Of course, only those above the stage of transforming gods are eligible to enjoy such hospitality; those at the Nascent Soul stage and below should be honest.
In addition, Sun Ming's matter is not completely over, and it is time to hold a funeral. This funeral is a memory and a political weathervane—this is the end of this matter.
There are a lot of things to do, temporarily handing things over to Li Yuanming and others, Li Xian finally began to care about the things planned before. "Wang Cong, call me all the more active leaders in the underground forces recently. Let's talk."
Talk about talking? Is this so easy to talk about?
Wang Cong sent a bit of lament to these leading brothers in advance.
…………
Beidou City, the Beidou City that has just begun to show its style, has already had a relatively complete "underground force". In Anyang City, these underground forces dare not raise their heads, but Beidou City has become the best soil for underground forces.
The unprecedented super city with a radius of 100 kilometers provides the best breeding ground for people in these gray areas.
The sources of these underground forces are very complicated. There are people who sneaked into the Kingdom of Shang illegally, people who are unwilling to accept the rule of the country, people who have been defeated, spies, hidden forces of various families, and even more—some who surrendered to the Kingdom of Shang, but Those who are not reused.
For example, the biggest leader of the underground forces here is 'Yueqingfeng'.
Yue Qingfeng, once the uncle of the second prince of Daxia Kingdom, was also the dog-headed military advisor of the second prince.
After the defeat of the second prince, Yue Qingfeng led the power of the Yue family to flee everywhere, and finally had no choice but to choose to settle in Anyang at that time. At that time, there were wars everywhere, and the Yue family was mainly engaged in business. Entering Anyang at that time was also a good way out.
However, the reality is always a bit helpless, because of the relationship in the past, Shang Wang Guoming's business activities on the surface, everyone is more or less against the Yue family.
During the rise of the Shang Kingdom, Li Xian focused on supporting those who had a good impression of himself and the Shang Kingdom; as for those who did not have a good impression and had a hostile relationship in the past, Li Xian would not foolishly clamor for equality.
Under Li Xian's laissez-faire, in the process of business competition, coupled with the failed political struggle - the battle for the prince of the Great Xia Kingdom, the Yue family gradually declined.
In desperation, Yue Qingfeng gritted his teeth and embarked on the "grey road of life". This is the world between the light world and the evil world, commonly known as the underground power.
Compared with the bright world, the underground forces cannot see the light.
Compared with the omnipotent evil forces, most of the people with underground forces have conscience and pursuit.
But in fact, there are not many clear boundaries between underground forces and evil forces. And neither is protected by law!
It's just that Yue Qingfeng finally has a bit of reason, and he hasn't given up hope of making the Yue family rise again. Moreover, although the Second Prince has lost his power now, he is living a decent life here in Shang Kingdom, and Li Xian finally remembered some old feelings.
Similarly, Yue Qingfeng also used this power to become one of the largest underground forces in Beidou City, the leader of the Golden Knife (Gang).
The business of Golden Knife mainly includes pornographic gambling, lending, smuggling, smuggling, etc., and will also take on some not-so-serious tasks.
Where there is light, there is darkness. Even the Kingdom of Shang cannot prevent the existence of underground forces. Especially the "Adventure and Mercenary Association" itself is a "half black and half white" existence, as written on the couplet at the door.
In short, after choosing this path, Yue Qingfeng lived in fear, but the Yue family also grew up through it.
In particular, they buy high-quality steel, munitions, cement, industrial products, machinery, elixir liquid, spiritual materials, magic weapons, etc. from the Kingdom of Shang, and smuggle them to foreign countries to sell at high prices.
There are many, many things in it, which are forbidden by the Shang Kingdom to be sold to the outside world.
Relying on these things, relying on a bit of scheming and ruthlessness, Yue Qingfeng propped up the "Golden Knife" underground gang, and even had Nascent Soul stage masters join.
But the Golden Knife can only be regarded as one of the largest gangs, not the strongest. This is also Yue Qingfeng's recent headache. Just a few days ago, the Golden Knife clashed with the 'Fenghuo Forest'.
Fenghuolin's eldest brother is 'Zhou Decheng', the head of Cai Guo's bodyguard who was stabbed in the back. After being captured, Zhou Decheng was released because Zhou Decheng had never killed anyone in the Shang Kingdom - he had no chance to fight at all.
Zhou Decheng was very annoyed, and had a bit of hatred for the Kingdom of Shang; especially recently Cai Guo was "massacred", and some of Zhou Decheng's relatives would inevitably suffer. Under such hatred, the "Fenglin Huoshan" underground gang formed by Zhou Decheng became the leader in the espionage industry.
Almost all foreigners who came to the Kingdom of Shang had contact with Feng Lin Huo.
Yue Qingfeng doesn't care about national honors. Facing the Shang Kingdom, the Yue family has neither good feelings nor hatred. They are more like strangers who only know their names.
Therefore, Yue Qingfeng and Zhou Decheng should be regarded as people on two lines, and they will never meet.
But recently, Zhou Decheng began to intervene in the "business scope" of the Yue family, which made Yue Qingfeng intolerable. However, after several collisions, the Yue family was beaten badly and many people died. Zhou Decheng's subordinates were all Cai Guo's imperial guards back then, and all of these people had extraordinary skills.
The collision between Yue Qingfeng's golden knife and Zhou Decheng's Fenghuo Forest is like a collision between scattered soldiers and regular soldiers, and they are not at the same level of strength at all.
Looking at his miserable subordinates, Yue Qingfeng gritted his teeth, and prepared to take a dangerous move—to report on Zhou Decheng! It is also an underground force, of course Yue Qingfeng has a lot of evidence, which is enough for Zhou Decheng to be sentenced to death.
There is only one problem, the state owns the state laws, the industry has its own rules, and the underground forces should not be involved at the national level. But Yue Qingfeng really had no choice. It is obviously not acceptable for Yue Qingfeng to ruin the entire Yue family for the so-called "rules".
Just as Yue Qingfeng was hesitating, suddenly someone from his subordinates came to report, quite flustered: "Boss, someone is looking for you."
Yue Qingfeng frowned immediately, "Who is so flustered?"
"It's... the king of God."
"God king?"
"It's... Wang Shen, the head of the National Security Bureau."
"I..." Yue Qingfeng froze suddenly, as if struck by lightning. National Security Agency? This department was established independently after Sun Ming was kidnapped, and the intelligence elite Wang Shen served as the director.
On the surface, the National Security Agency doesn't seem to do much, and ordinary people don't even care about this department. But Yue Qingfeng knew that Wang Shen's appointment was not to use three fires, but to pull out the "evil forces" one by one like a comb. It's definitely the kind that cuts grass and roots.
Yue Qingfeng didn't dare to get involved in the "evil power" recently, and a large part of it was scared by Wang Shen.
Now, hearing that the Security Bureau sent someone, Yue Qingfeng was really terrified—could this executioner prepare to attack the gray zone?
However, it cannot be seen. With a disturbed mood, Yue Qingfeng met the people from the Security Bureau.
