BXBX NOVEL Chapter 447: 446 Ordinary People
With the subject proposed by Captain Liu, his intention was definitely for the Human Emperor candidates to fully utilize their resources to maximize their benefits, not the approach of Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu.
Yu Yin had also been trying hard to follow their thinking, but he was still trailing behind.
“Borrowing the power of others when necessary, I wonder if these young guys have grasped the good intentions of our cooperation.”
“They should be able to understand; after all, we have led by example and applied our intentions in practice.”
Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu were discussing how they felt they had given too much for the younger generation.
“When do we start the second trial?” Bai Hongtu couldn’t wait to get started, he hadn’t had enough fun.
“There’s no need to rush things like this, let the youngsters breathe a bit.” Jiang Li, through the mark of the Human Emperor candidate, saw that Qin Luan and the others were summarizing the gains from the trials.
According to Captain Liu, the old Human Emperor would also summarize the gains after the trial, planning on how to conduct the next trial in order to limit the opportunities for him and Bai Hongtu to demonstrate their talents.
Jiang Li felt that the old Human Emperor was over-worried, he and Bai Hongtu were so excellent that no matter how much they were restricted, it would be useless.
Indeed, he and Bai Hongtu had seized the initiative in the subsequent trials, demonstrating their abilities to the fullest.
“Enough talking, I have to go back and continue preparing for the Jiu Zhou Spirit Plant formation.” Bai Hongtu said goodbye to Yu Yin and returned to Dao Sect and Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty.
Jiang Li was also bored, so he found a nearby city to wander around in.
“Is this Da Zhou Imperial City?” Jiang Li suddenly remembered that Dongyun Lake was located in Da Zhou Empire, and next to the imperial city of Da Zhou.
The Da Zhou Imperial City was still as bustling as ever, no, even more bustling than before.
“Candied haws, candied haws imported from Ming Zhong World!” The vendor’s shout caught Jiang Li’s attention.
Only then did Jiang Li remember an important incident: “Damn it, Bai Hongtu, that son of a bitch, is monopolizing the hawthorn industry again.”
…
“Hello everyone, this is Eastern Rising TV, I’m reporter Xiao Xin.”
“Not long ago, President Ming Zhong and Emperor Jiang Li jointly attended the Jiu Zhou Conference and signed the ‘Mutual Assistance Charter’. This marks the official establishment of diplomatic relations between Ming Zhong World and Jiu Zhou World. This is our first official establishment of diplomatic relations with other worlds, and its significance is profound.”
Ming Zhong had two things he was most proud of. One was the thorough solution to the monster disaster that had plagued the world for nearly ten thousand years with Jiang Li’s help, and the other was naming their world after him.
It can be said that Ming Zhong’s prestige had reached its peak, something no other president could match.
The reporter Xiao Xin continued, “President Ming Zhong stated that he intends to strengthen cooperation between the two worlds, particularly in the areas of economy, culture, and cultivation, and to establish a long-term mechanism.”
“The Imperial Palace also stated that the people of Jiu Zhou welcome exchanges with the Ming Zhong World, and also encourages various powers to interact and learn from each other with the Ming Zhong World.”
“The commercial street behind me was established under this context. Even though the commercial street was just established, it is very flourishing and many people in Jiu Zhou are interested in the goods sold here.”
“According to sources, the commercial street established in Da Zhou Imperial City sells products from our Ming Zhong World. Let’s go and interview some people from Jiu Zhou.”
A few floating cameras moved with Xiao Xin, no cameraman needed.
Reporter Xiao Xin was in front of the newly established commercial street, and many cultivators had come to witness the technological products of Ming Zhong World.
This was a new plan by the official television station of Ming Zhong World. They aimed to let more people know about Jiu Zhou World through live interviews and broadcasts.
Additionally, they planned to use documentary filming and other methods to promote Jiu Zhou.
“Hello, may I ask what product you most want to buy here on the Commercial Street?”
“Of course, it’s the holographic simulator with no time limit! Although the holographic simulator I initially bought had a time limit, I could fool it with spells, but now all holographic simulators are shipped from the factory with restrictions designed by Bai Hongtu from Dao Sect. Our spells are utterly useless…”
“Okay, we can see that this cultivator really loves our holographic simulator, let’s interview the next person.”
With a warm smile, reporter Xiao Xin directed the camera away from this person, publically discussing how to remove the time limit from the holographic simulator… she dared not think about what else this person would say.
“Hello, may I ask what product you most want to buy here on the Commercial Street?”
“Robots.”
“It seems that this cultivator really likes our robots from Ming Zhong World. Could you tell us what type of robot you would like to buy? A domestic use one or a combat use one?”
“Is there one that’s really pretty, that can sleep with me at night? Of course, it would be best if I could customize her face. I’ve heard that your robots from Ming Zhong World are incredibly lifelike. Money is not an issue.”
“… Okay, let’s interview the next person.” said reporter Xiao Xin, maintaining her pleasant smile.
“Hello, you seem to be a student. May I ask what you want to buy here in the Commercial Street?”
The student looked troubled, “The teacher made us memorize scriptures again, I can’t do it. A classmate told me that Ming Zhong World has memory chips, which can implant a piece of memory, very reliable, and absolutely will not be forgotten. I want to buy a memory chip.”
“By the way, I also need a nanocalculator. There will be a math test in a few days, I’m bad at math, so I want to buy a calculator. The teacher doesn’t understand technology products very well, so he hasn’t included nanocalculators in the scope of cheating yet.”
“Excuse me, sir, what are your thoughts on Ming Zhong World?” Reporter Xiao Xin switched the camera angle to ask the person behind her. She felt that changing the topic would be better, as the answers from the previous few could all be considered broadcast accidents.
“Eh? Why aren’t you asking me what I want to buy anymore? I was just about to say that candied haws from Ming Zhong World taste pretty good.” Jiang Li, an ordinary folk, eating candied haws and being interviewed.
Jiang Li had changed his appearance, so people couldn’t recognize him.
“I think Ming Zhong World is amazing. They have been striving to develop science and technology to confront the monster disaster that has lasted for thousands of years. Among the several worlds I have experienced, the technological level of your Ming Zhong World is the highest.”
“But you have attached too much importance to rationality and not enough to sensibility. Sometimes it is easier to gain something by feeling with your heart rather than looking with your eyes.”
What Jiang Li was alluding to was that the people of Ming Zhong World had not yet discovered the existence of Spiritual Roots.
Their ancestors were the forgotten people of the Immortal Realm. In a dense spiritual energy environment, in theory, it should be easier to find the Spiritual Root and begin cultivation.
But Ming Zhong World chose to pursue technological progress, attempted to become powerful with the aid of technology, veering to a path completely opposite to that of cultivation.
If Ming Zhong World had discovered Spiritual Roots earlier and combined cultivation with technology, their achievements would have been even higher than they are now.
However, it’s not too late to unite with Jiu Zhou and develop together now.
“What are your thoughts on Emperor Jiang Li?”
