On the Seven Towers

Early the next morning, when the sun had just risen, Xiao Chen went out. He was still wearing the outfit of a wild adventure, carrying a bag and hanging a dagger, looking like a mix of modern and medieval styles.

When he arrived at the gathering place outside the school gate, he saw more people who were earlier than him and were already making final preparations for their long journey. Five flatbed trucks were waiting there, with horses being hitched by several local grooms.

Li Tianrui and three soldiers were sorting their weapons.

People from the logistics and business groups are loading the goods. The goods brought to Suero City this time include not only the "high-quality goods" stocked in the supermarket, but also goods produced after arriving in another world. There are clothes with an earthly style, and the fabrics are purchased locally. They look very rough, but the style is not out of date even on earth. There are also some pottery pots. Although the craftsmanship is not exquisite, the styles are relatively novel. The gorgeous patterns on it were drawn by several art students with reference to classical Chinese pottery and mixed with modern styles. There is also a small batch of earth-made glass bottles. Due to craftsmanship problems, the glass bottles are very dark green and have irregular shapes. But this is the first batch of results of more than a month of hard work by the industrial group with the help of the technology group.

The technology team stumbled and re-mastered the method of refining soda ash from trona. However, because the series of conditions for the reaction are different from those on Earth, and the rules are complex, they did not arrive at a new chemical formula, but only a strange empirical formula. Mao Kai shouted over this: "The boards of Mendeleev's coffin will not hold up!"

This problem, which in the original world could be solved by middle school students in an hour, took a group of professors and doctors a whole month to complete here, causing many people to lose their hair.

But no matter what, we have at least taken the first step in light industry construction.

Chen Hansheng jumped out of the leading car. He was dressed similar to a local horseman, except that he was wearing a T-shirt underneath his commoner and running shoes. He patted Xiao Chen's arm and said, "Xiao Xiao, I'm relieved to have you go with me this time!"

"We haven't seen each other for a few days, why did you change your outfit like this?"

Chen Hansheng laughed heartily and said loudly: "When you do business, do as the Romans do. I think when doing business, you must first let your customers treat you as one of their own. What do you think of my appearance?"

When Xiao Chen saw Silla coming over, dressed exactly like Chen Hansheng, he smiled and said, "Silla and I are like two brothers. No one will treat you as a foreigner."

"I've met you, sir." Ciro seemed quite happy. He greeted Xiao Chen in somewhat jerky Chinese, and then said in Spanish: "Sir, please rest assured. I have already obtained this transaction from my old friend in Suero City. We have made contact with them. They always ask for as much goods as we can, and we will definitely make a big deal this time.”

Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Deputy Team Leader Chen is still leading the team this time. Just follow his instructions."

"Yes, yes, how can a magician like you care about these small businesses? I will work with Chen to get things done and never let you bother." Xiao Chen was a little helpless. He knew that in the eyes of these villagers, , He, the mage, is the master of this castle. People like Chen Hansheng who have no magic power are naturally just servants.

"Ah, Mr. Luo is here too." Silla saw Luo Ling walking out of the school and immediately greeted her warmly. Now the main entrance of the school has been pushed up a slope with steps. Luo Ling is wearing the mage robe from last time, but the size of the shoulders and waist has been reduced, and the hem is also trimmed. She walks down step by step. Swinging gently in the breeze, it looks graceful.

"Hey, have you asked the tailor to change the style? It looks good. This witch cosplay is really good!" Xiao Chen praised.

"Identity is a kind of strength. Since everyone thinks we are mages, we have to make good use of this identity." She took out a plastic bag and handed it to Xiao Chen, "This is your robe. It has been washed. I believe it will definitely come in handy.”

When the team set off, Guo Qian and several committee leaders came to see them off. To Xiao Chen's surprise, Li Jia and Morey also came. In addition, there was Qin Mu.

Guo Qian was not someone who liked to talk nonsense. He shook hands with each representative and repeatedly asked everyone to pay attention to safety. Then he left time for other people to see off their friends and classmates.

Li Jia ran over and hugged Xiao Chen tightly, and said with a smile: "I won't say anything else. You, old Xiao, are determined to come back with all their beards and tails. But don't trick Luo Ling and Old Chen! They are not like cockroaches like you. They can crawl out of the earth and climb out of the mountains. "

"Take it easy, don't let the local girl kidnap you." Xiao Chen said, punching him in the face.

As soon as Li Jia was distracted, she was almost hit by Xiao Chen and almost fell to the ground.

At this time, Morey on the side walked up, bowed slightly to greet Xiao Chen, and handed Xiao Chen a necklace. Xiao Chen took a look and vaguely remembered that this was the necklace that the old goblin shaman was wearing that day, but everyone was in a panic at the time and did not pay attention to the chain. It turned out that it ended up in Morey's hands. This necklace has obviously been transformed, and its workmanship is much more refined than before. Several of the gems are engraved with new magic circles.

"For travelers, safety is more important than anything else. This protective necklace should belong to you, but it turned out to be too rough and crude. After I got it, I made some enhancements. My friend, I hope you will bring it with you. It avoids all dangers."

"Thank you! My friend." Xiao Chen knew the dangers of this world, so he took the chain in his hand without refusing.

Xiao Chen glanced at Qin Mu not far away who had just finished talking to Luo Ling. He was still holding a bouquet of flowers that he seemed to have failed to send out. The other party seemed to sense Xiao Chen's gaze. Xiao Chen smiled at him, and the other party returned a dull smile, turned and walked away.

The team set off, and Xiao Chen sat on a flatbed truck and slowly drove away from the school. He looked back and saw the school standing in front of the mountain in the morning light. The tall buildings broke through the mist, solemn and vivid. Seeing a half-built blast furnace indicates that the power of industry will soon come to this world. Looking at the crowd that lingered for a long time after seeing them off at the school gate. Suddenly I felt a surge of pride in my heart. I will bring you a new world!

————————————————————————

On the school playground, the guard team is undergoing daily training. These people look much more alike than before. After nearly a month of arduous training, coupled with various tasks of the trade team and the expedition team, the spirit of the original team members has changed greatly, and they are somewhat like military personnel.

After a round of spear training, instructor Ji Xun asked the team members to rest. Taking this opportunity, Ji Yijun came close to Ye Zi and whispered: "I heard that Chen Hansheng's trade team will go to big cities soon. I really want to go with them to see what big cities in this world are like. ”

"Looking at the city? Looking at the beauties, right? Don't think that I don't know about your affair with those girls." Ye Zi said with a crooked mouth.

"Nonsense! You can't believe and spread rumors. I am a bit more handsome, and there are more girls who like me. But as a conscience, I have never done anything bad." Ji Yijun said with some annoyance, " Hey! There's a sour taste in your words. I want to clarify, I'm not interested in you. If you didn't practice kung fu, I wouldn't bother to say it."

"Am I attracted to you? Even if I am attracted to Chen Hansheng, I will not be attracted to you! Get lost!" Ye Zi rolled his eyes at Ji Yijun and said unceremoniously.

"Hehe." Ji Yijun slipped in front of Ye Zi, "Seriously! You can't help but feel it. It's interesting to practice internal martial arts in this world, and the progress is much faster than on earth. That's why I want to go to the university City!”

"Do you feel the same way?" When Ye Zi heard this, he suddenly became interested and said thoughtfully: "I feel like practicing here is like reaching some kind of blessed place, getting twice the result with half the effort. Recently, I seem to be on the verge of a breakthrough. But what does this have to do with you going to the big city with the trade team?"

"Yes! Think about it, since this world is particularly suitable for us to practice martial arts. Shouldn't there also be various martial arts masters and various powerful martial arts? The people around the school are all countrymen. They have no knowledge at all, and there is no one. If you have the skills, I would like to go with the trading team to find experts in the big city for two days. I feel like this is a worthwhile trip to another world."

"Why didn't you tell the instructor?"

"Hey, my dad is a stubborn old man. He mentioned it a few days ago. He asked me to take it easy and obey Team Leader Wang's arrangements. I think, how about we go talk to Team Leader Wang together?"

"You put it like that, I really want to go, but..."

"Then let's go together. What's the big deal?"

"But, they already set off this morning."

"What??"

————————————————————————

"Team Leader Wang, Uncle Wang! Just let me go with the trade team! I can still catch up with them now." Ji Yijun took advantage of his father's absence and quickly ran to the stands next to the playground and surrounded Wang Jiyuan.

"Xiaojun, I've told you the truth many times. The escort team is about to be expanded and reorganized. How can you, the backbones, run away? Principal Guo only gave me three months. After three months, we will We are going into the mountains to wipe out the goblins. Do you want to miss this battle? After all, our guns are limited, and the use of modern weapons and cold weapons will be the mainstream for a long time, so it is important to have a martial arts master like you to teach other team members. Ah, you can make the most of it if you stay here." Wang Jiyuan stood in the stands with his hands behind his back and said unhurriedly.

"You can't use a gun for everything. My kung fu also comes in handy. If I meet a master, why don't I take action?" Ji Yijun said unconvinced.

"The trading team is here to trade, not to fight. How can a master with four guns not be enough? What's more, Li Tianrui and the others are not bad at fighting. Even Chen Hansheng is an old scout." Wang Jiyuan said.

"Oh, that's foreign martial arts, completely different things! They really don't understand!"

"Hey, you monkey, aren't you just trying to find an opportunity to play by changing your ways?" Wang Jiyuan sneered, "Ji Yijun, do you think now is the time to play?! You have to understand that the current guard is the future guard. Military. You are no longer a student or a martial arts enthusiast. You are now a soldier. There is no bargaining when a soldier performs his mission!"

Ji Yijun said with a face: "I'll just say it."

"Hurry back to the team. We have to team up with the sergeant in the afternoon. Put away your crooked thoughts!"

Ji Yijun returned to the team holding back his anger, thinking angrily in his heart, if I don't show you my hands, you really don't know what a master is. We'll see!
