By the way, why did Zhou Ming suddenly want to help Dongyuanzhou?

Is it just for the mother and daughter?

Of course not, this is just a small factor.

The big reason is: he doesn't really want Wancheng Country to go too smoothly, expand too far, and be in a state of invincibility in the world for a long time.

Invincible is by no means a good thing.

Even quite terrible.

Individuals may be unscrupulous, do whatever they want, be arrogant, and become extremely ignorant and arrogant.

The invincible country is even more destructive. Even if it can be free for a while, over time, it will either embark on the road of aggressive invasion and expansion, crazy plundering of resources, or be conservative, recognize itself as "the country of heaven", loses the motivation to move forward, give up its own improvement, and be surpassed by others in the process of self-confidence.

In the end, the dinosaur, the planet overlord suddenly disappeared, perished in the abrupt environment.

Are there few such examples in history, such as Zhou Ming's real world braiding and the former superpower M country, because of his invincibility, how many small and medium-sized countries have fought?

Even so, after becoming the only superpower, did Country M still list Country Z as a target of containment and always seek subversion?

Because Country M knew in his heart: it would be impossible to have no opponent, if there is really no one, create one!

In short, you must never stop there and eat and wait to die!

Similarly.

Wanchengguo also needs a competitor, an opponent with equal strength, and an opponent that can keep him energetic at all times.

In this way, the country of Wancheng will continue to improve, grow, and remain strong.

The only one who is qualified and capable of being the opponent of Wancheng Kingdom is Dongyuanzhou. If Dongyuanzhou is destroyed, for a considerable period of time, Wancheng Kingdom's opponent will probably be the only one who is himself.

Is there any domestic problems in Wancheng?

certainly.

There have even been many interest classes, or giant families who have planned to establish a country in other countries.

The continuous growth of these interest classes or families will sooner or later become an unstable factor in the splitting of the country.

Without certain external force suppression, it would be very difficult for Wancheng Kingdom to maintain a unified state with a low degree of cohesion.

Therefore, it was definitely not Zhou Ming's whim to decide to win Dong Yuanzhou.

...

A few months later.

A lot of foreign populations have flooded into Xuanqing City.

Although some of the people from other places try their best to avoid talking, they will still expose the strong Dongyuanzhou accent once they open their mouths.

Anyone from Wancheng who has been to Dongyuanzhou can tell this accent by just listening to it, which is unique to Dongyuanzhou.

In fact, Zhou Ming, who had been in the foreign continent for seven years, was most surprised by why humans in all places spoke the same language and used basically the same words?

Even if some continents are separated by millions or tens of millions of miles, the language and writing used by people are not very different.

It is completely accessible for communication.

Zhou Ming had no choice but to guess: After this Lingyuan Continent was created, all wise humans should have come from the same tribe and later scattered in all directions.

Of course, due to the barriers of miasma forests, there are still big differences in accents of each continent. One area of ​​water and soil nourishes the other people, and the relative closed environments form a variety of accents.

No matter how you cover it up, it will still be exposed inadvertently.

His father Bai Xutang reported to Zhou Ming: A businessman told him that many Dongyuanzhou people have entered Xuanqing City recently, unlike in serious business, and asked him to be vigilant and send someone to investigate.

He asked Zhou Ming what to do?

"Don't pay too much attention. Dongyuanzhou merchants are all over the world. It is normal for a few of them to appear here." Zhou Ming said.

"However, the country has recently stepped up its efforts to block Dongyuanzhou. I suspect that these Dongyuanzhou people have some problems..." Bai Xutang said hesitantly. He is not a fool. The characteristics of the Free City of Xuanqing City have led to a lot of "idle people" here. He likes to buy things very much, but he doesn't know where the money comes from.

"Then strengthen the monitoring a little, and if there is any abnormal movement, then respond."

Now the urban population of Xuanqing City has expanded to 5 million, most of which are foreign populations. There are even many cheap laborers and smugglers from Nanyuanzhou, which are very complex. With the Bai family's less than 20,000 troops, it is difficult to maintain public security in the entire area. To strengthen surveillance, we can only strengthen it slightly.

"That's all."

Bai Xutang nodded and said, since he succeeded as the lord of Xuanqing City, with the increase of various difficult affairs, he became increasingly unable to do so. His head was white, and he had a lot more than he had in recent years.

He wanted to give up many times and let the young Zhou Ming be the lord of the city. He retired early and took his wife to travel around the country to live a happy and comfortable old age.

But Zhou Ming was also not interested in the position of the city lord. He was an immortal and could not stay in the mortal world all the time. His younger brother Bai Feijian was qualified and was very skilled in handling various government affairs. Zhou Ming deliberately cultivated him, which has helped him train in many positions over the years.

Once he leaves Xuanqing City and Bai Xutang leaves the world again, he will probably be managed by him.

Of course, Bai Xutang is only in his early sixties now, and he complains, but he can actually work for a few more years.

Many things that are undecided often go to Zhou Ming to discuss.

However, a few months later.

Chengbei Xuanqing Airport.

Standing in the high-level airport observation tower, I watched a normal-looking Yu Airbus slowly landing, stopped the runway, and boarded the gangway. Among the hundreds of passengers who walked down, I saw a young woman wearing a white windbreaker, a wide-brimmed hat and large green sunglasses, light makeup, and only exposed her round chin, cherry red lips and delicate nose. As the old man followed, she slowly walked down the gangway and looked around from time to time.

Zhou Ming in the tower shook his head repeatedly.

Smile helplessly.

He murmured: "Who can guess that a Supreme Palace Master who lives in a million miles of mountains and rivers, dominates the fate of six billion people, has an extremely noble status and is loved by the people, will actually move your body and travel thousands of miles to personally come to a remote and backward place like Xuanqing City. What an honor is this for my city?"

"What a nonsense, but no one has successfully stopped it?"

This courage is so great.

...

The young woman who was walking off the plane was amazed with a mouthful of Dongyuanzhou accent:

"The city of Wancheng Country, is this the city of Wancheng Country?"

“Advanced, clean, beautiful, unparalleled.”

"That building is at least a hundred floors high, right? It's still three buildings in parallel. If it were my Dongyuanzhou, the tallest building was only 80 floors, and the number was pitiful."

"Psychic cars, there are psychic cars everywhere on the street, some gasoline buses, and there are many rail trains... all kinds of cars are called congested and busy urban roads."

"If it were my Dongyuanzhou, the most developed city, there were only a few thousand psionic cars. Very few people could afford it. Most of them ran on earth and rocky roads, and there were also a large number of ox carts and horse carriages that occupied the lane and excreted at will. Not only did they cover the sky, but they were also extremely dirty and smelly."

"There are also people here who wear fashion and beautiful clothes, and they are well-educated. Most of them are polite and gentle tone, just like a country of civilization."

"The science and technology is even more developed, with cultural entertainment, prosperity and development, and such a grand scene is enviable."

As we walked along the way, Jiang Ruyue kept admiring and sighing from time to time.

The city in front of her has caused her a considerable shock and huge impact visually.

In the past, she had heard from the merchants or diplomats who had been to Wancheng Country who had been to Wancheng Country to describe the development and prosperity of Wancheng Country. She always felt that it was a bit exaggerated and could not be sure of it.

But when she saw it with her own eyes, she found that those people were not lying or exaggerating.

It is even more prosperous than they described.

It will also make her frightened and shocked.

There were a few moments when she was as noble as her, and she had the idea of ​​inferiority and insignificance in her heart.

She thought to herself: "Xunqing City is just a medium-sized city among the cities of Wancheng Kingdom. If it were those more prosperous cities with tens of millions and tens of millions of people, how would I feel if I looked at it?"

She began to understand why, when she asked the merchants or officials who had been to Wancheng Kingdom and asked them about their senses about Wancheng Kingdom, what they showed on their faces was not pride and excitement, but deep inferiority, low words, and such unenvious comments as "it is difficult to surpass within fifty years."

Jiang Ruyue was very angry and slapped the table and said: Is it so difficult to surpass Wancheng Country in fifty years? It would take so long?

Fifty years are at least, and it may even take eighty years or a hundred years... Even though she knows she is angry, someone else answers her like this.

Let your mother fart!

Do you have chondropathy? You actually see Wancheng Kingdom so powerful?!

Jiang Ruyue's face turned pale and wanted to swear and curse her, but seeing that they still had no ambitions, she could only hold back her anger.

But it is certain that I am extremely dissatisfied.

After walking around Xuanqing City today, Jiang Ruyue's dissatisfaction had long since dissatisfied.

It turned into a little inferiority complex, as well as a strong sense of urgency and crisis.

"This remote Xuanqing City looks like it is more advanced than Xiaole City (the capital of Dongyuanzhou) for thirty or fifty years. What about the most prosperous capital city in Wancheng Country?"

Fifty years.

Overcoming in about fifty years has become Jiang Ruyue’s most optimistic estimate now.

But fifty years later, does Dongyuanzhou still exist?

Will the Wancheng Congress give Dongyuanzhou fifty years of development?

Shake his head.

Extremely unoptimistic.
