I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 1977 General Ran Min

The chief steward sat in the spacious hall, gently stroking an exquisite jade pendant in his hand, his eyes revealing a sense of depth and calculation.

Outside the door, Guard Xiaobai walked in hurriedly, with a trace of anxiety and curiosity on his face. He stood in front of the steward and reported in a trembling voice: "Steward, His Highness came out of the Jinliufu Cash Box in a hurry and went directly to the direction of General Ran Min's mansion. What do you think, should we send some people to follow and take a look?"

Hearing this, the chief steward raised a playful smile, put down the jade pendant in his hand, waved his hand gently, and said, "Going to the general's mansion? This kid wants to get some standard equipment. It's okay, we don't have to worry too much, let's see if he can convince Ran Min, the stubborn old man."

Upon hearing this, Guard Xiaobai frowned slightly, still a little worried. After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally mustered up the courage to speak, "But, Steward, aren't you worried about General Ran Min... What if he gets upset and hurts Your Highness? After all, Your Highness is of noble status, and if something goes wrong..."

Upon hearing this, the chief steward said calmly, "It's okay. Although Ran Min has a bad temper and a straightforward personality, he has a scale in his heart and can distinguish between the important and the urgent. He knows that Liu Jun is the future hope of our Skyfire Divine Realm and will never hurt him easily. Don't worry."

After saying this, the steward stopped talking, picked up the teacup on the table and sipped it gently, seeming to be full of interest and anticipation for what was about to happen next.

At this time, Liu Jun and his companions had already crossed the bustling streets and arrived in front of General Ran Min's mansion. This general's mansion was indeed as magnificent and majestic as its reputation. On the tall gate tower hung a plaque with the four characters "General's Mansion" written in vigorous and powerful handwriting, shining with golden light.

Liu Jun stood at the door, took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and then strode into the mansion.

The guards at the door seemed not to see Liu Jun and did not stop him, allowing Liu Jun and his companions to enter the general's mansion.

Inside the general's mansion, there are green trees and the fragrance of flowers. A bluestone path winds its way into the depths.

Liu Jun and his companions walked along the path, and from time to time they met patrolling soldiers. They all looked at him with awe, as if they already knew his identity.

After some twists and turns in their exploration and inquiries, Liu Jun and his companions arrived at the main hall of the magnificent General's Mansion.

Liu Jun took a deep breath, trying to calm his slightly rapid breathing, and then knocked on the door.

A deep and powerful voice came from inside the door, with a hint of unquestionable majesty in it: "Who is it?"

"My name is Liu Jun. I have come to see the general and discuss important matters with him." Liu Jun replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Oh? Your Highness is of noble status, and I am just a military man. How can I pay you a visit?" The low voice sounded again.

Then, the door of the main hall slowly opened, revealing a spacious and bright space.

When Liu Jun stepped over the threshold, the first thing that caught his eye was an oversized sand table, which almost took up half of the room.

The sand table is covered with various exquisite symbols, including mountains, rivers, cities, and small flags representing the army. They are arranged in a staggered manner, like a living war painting.

At the back of the main hall, there was a huge map hanging, which was the map of the entire God Realm. On the map, the mountains, rivers, cities, fortresses, and the distribution of forces were clearly visible.

Liu Jun looked around and found that the main hall of the general's mansion was completely different from other places. The main halls of other people's mansions were usually decorated magnificently, like a reception room.

But here, it was more like a command center, and every detail revealed a military atmosphere. He even imagined that if there were really a few staff officers standing next to it, this place would be perfect.

The figure of General Ran Min was looming beside the sand table. He was wearing armor, with a long sword on his waist, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, as if he could see every subtle change on the battlefield at any time.

Liu Jun secretly admired in his heart, no wonder this man could achieve great military exploits in the God Realm, such a level of dedication is absolutely incomparable to ordinary people, and he still wears armor and carries a sword at home.

"Your Highness, my place is extremely simple. We don't have any fine tea or exquisite pastries. I hope you will forgive me for the poor hospitality." General Ran Min's voice was steady and powerful, his eyes fixed on the sand table in front of him, as if there were thousands of troops hidden inside, with thundering war drums.

He never raised his head and never even looked at Liu Jun who was standing in front of him. This invisible sense of oppression made the air seem to solidify a little.

Liu Jun smiled slightly, not caring about the general's cold attitude, and said calmly: "It's okay, General, I have prepared something here, but it's not tea, but a jar of good wine I brewed myself."

As he spoke, Liu Jun gently patted a wine jar beside him. The red mud sealing the jar seemed to be telling the years and sedimentation it had gone through.

Afterwards, Liu Jun took out two exquisite porcelain bowls from the storage space and gently placed them next to the sand table.

The moment the wine jar is opened, a mellow aroma of wine instantly spreads, interweaving with the air in the room to form a unique charm.

Liu Jun poured the wine slowly into the bowl until it overflowed, and the wine was crystal clear, like two rubies inlaid next to the sand table.

When General Ran Min saw Liu Jun put the wine on the sand table, he couldn't help but frown slightly, as if he was about to blame him for this inappropriate behavior.

However, at this moment, a strong aroma of wine wafted into my nose. The aroma contained not only the mellowness and sweetness of the wine, but also a hint of herbal flavor, which was fresh and elegant.

"This wine?" General Ran Min finally spoke, with a hint of curiosity and surprise in his voice. He then raised his head and finally moved his gaze from the sand table to the wine bowl in Liu Jun's hand. Seeing this, Liu Jun smiled slightly, picked up one of the bowls of wine, and handed it to General Ran Min: "This is my special medicinal wine, General, why don't you try it first?"

General Ran Min hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out to take the bowl of wine. He carefully looked at the slightly reddish wine in the bowl. The color of the wine was like clouds, as if it contained some mysterious power. He took a deep breath, as if he wanted to absorb all the aroma of the wine and herbs into his body, and then drank it all in one gulp, his movements were heroic and graceful.

The wine slid down his throat, and a warm current instantly surged through his body, causing General Ran Min to close his eyes and savor the unique flavor.

After a moment, General Ran Min slowly opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with admiration and surprise: "Good wine! Really good wine! Your Highness, your medicinal wine is indeed extraordinary."

"Would you like to chat when you have time?" Liu Jun said cheerfully with a warm smile on his face.

"Of course I'm free, Your Highness. Please come in." General Ran Min drank the wine handed to him by Liu Jun generously. His attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn and he became extremely polite to Liu Jun.

The two of them walked slowly to the side of the main hall, one in front and one behind, where they saw two chairs placed with a small and exquisite table in the middle.

As for Yao Guangxiao and the others, they never stepped into the main hall and stayed quietly outside.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid this wine of yours is not an ordinary medicinal wine?" General Ran Min asked with a look full of curiosity and inquiry.

"Well, it contains herbs that can promote wound healing. I dare not make any boasts, but if someone is injured, drinking a sip can increase the healing speed by five times, and it can also replenish qi and blood." Liu Jun explained patiently.

"How much of this wine do you have? Can you sell it to me?" General Ran Min asked anxiously.

As a general commanding thousands of troops, he was well aware of the great value and significance of this wine. If every soldier could be equipped with this wine, then after a fierce battle, the number of casualties could be reduced by at least two-thirds.

"Not much, just a few tens of thousands of jars." Liu Jun gently patted the wine jar in front of him with a calm look on his face.

“That’s enough. If we go to war with other divine realms this time, Your Highness, this wine of yours will surely be of great help!” General Ran Min’s eyes lit up, and he could hardly conceal his joy.

You know, although these tens of thousands of jars of wine are not enough for every soldier, at least the elite soldiers can get some. At a critical moment, these wines may become the key factor in turning the tide of the battle.

"Not only these, I have hundreds of thousands of healing pills here that you can use." Liu Jun smiled slightly, then took out a space storage bag and handed it to Ran Min solemnly.

General Ran Min hurriedly took the storage bag and quickly scanned it with his spiritual sense. He saw that it was indeed filled with densely packed healing pills piled up like a mountain. A rough estimate was that there were at least four or five hundred thousand pills.

"Thank you, Your Highness. Is there something you want to talk to me about this time?" General Ran Min clasped his hands together, with a probing look in his eyes. He knew very well that Liu Jun came to visit him and gave so many benefits, so he would definitely not be asking for nothing. He was not stupid.

"I need some standard equipment. As for what they are for, I really can't say. But please believe that all this is definitely for the Skyfire Divine Realm." Liu Jun said solemnly.

"I have 300,000 sets of standard equipment that have been eliminated by the Zhenbei Army. If you need them, just take them." Ran Min said without hesitation.

Although Liu Jun did not explain the specific reason why so many equipments were needed, he knew in his heart that since the steward had pushed Liu Jun to the position of Holy Son, he must have great trust in him.

"That's enough, thank you, General." Liu Jun said politely with gratitude on his face.

"Your Highness is too polite. The medicinal wine and elixirs you gave me are so valuable that they are more than enough to exchange for millions of sets of equipment, let alone just a few hundred thousand sets." Ran Min replied with a smile. At this moment, he looked at Liu Jun with admiration in his eyes, and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him.

He disliked Liu Jun before only because he didn't consider Liu Jun as a member of the Divine King City, nor as one of his own.

But seeing Liu Jun being so generous and taking out medicinal wine and pills, which were of great benefit to the soldiers, his attitude naturally changed.

"There is one more thing. I may have to go to the Sea of ​​Death. Can you arrange a warship for me?" Liu Jun frowned and asked with a little worry.

Before, he actually wanted Manager Qian Liu to prepare a large merchant ship for him, but then he thought that no matter how strong a merchant ship was, it would not be as strong as a warship.

"Death Sea? Most of the territory of the Death Sea belongs to the Hanshui Divine Realm. It is too dangerous for you to go there." Upon hearing this, General Ran Min showed a worry on his face and said hurriedly.

"I know, but I have reasons to go there." Liu Jun sighed, his eyes deep.

If given a choice, only a fool would want to take risks. It's not like he is born to seek excitement or like to jump on the line of death.

Upon hearing this, General Ran Min frowned slightly and pondered for a moment.

Although he had never been to the Death Sea, he knew how dangerous it was. It was a sea that was considered a forbidden place by countless people, with strong winds and huge waves, and sea beasts running rampant. Once you set foot in it, you might never return.
