Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 589: Master Joins the Company
Although he had the idea, Yan Xu was not in a hurry. Instead, he strolled on the street, admiring the changes he left in this world.

Along the way, we saw many patrolling soldiers. They were wearing uniform military uniforms, carrying semi-automatic rifles, and looked very energetic.

Whenever people saw them, they all grinned with a simple and proud smile.

This is exactly in line with Yan Xu's expectations for the army. In his opinion, an army that is not accepted and loved by the people cannot be called a qualified army, no matter how strong its combat effectiveness is.

Fortunately, he built such an army.

Thanks to a good mass base as well as developed commerce and industry, the existing territory alone can sustain an army of about 100,000, which is a very exaggerated military-civilian ratio.

Moreover, these armies are not just for show in numbers. With sufficient food and generous treatment, even the most rebellious soldiers are willing to abide by strict military discipline and train hard. When equipped with sophisticated weapons, their combat effectiveness has exceeded that of regional warlords, as can be seen from the concessions that are in name only.

The foreigners will certainly not be willing to lose their supreme power and status, but the problem is that they cannot win the war. The high cost of war alone is enough to keep any country calm.

Because many foreigners have evaluated the Magic City’s army and concluded that it has first-class physical fitness, first-class training, first-class tactics, and top-notch equipment.

Yes, the equipment is top-notch, because when any country chooses weapons for its army, the first thing it considers is cost, and then performance. Otherwise, the country will go bankrupt before the war even starts.

But because of Yan Xu's cheating, the industrial production capacity and precision processing capabilities of the Magic City have experienced explosive growth, and the large-scale deployment of semi-automatic rifles is proof of this.

Coupled with the integrity of the management, there is no need to consider these cost issues at all, thus creating a top-notch army.

If you want to deal with an army of this level, especially when the enemy is in a defensive advantage, forget it without three to five times the number of troops.

In that era, transporting hundreds of thousands of troops, along with equipment and supplies, across the ocean was a crazy idea, so compromise became the only thing they could do.

Of course, foreigners can also choose to blockade with strong ships and powerful guns.

The problem is that trade between the two sides can bring huge profits, and a delay of one day will result in a huge loss, so no one dares to mention it, because those big businessmen and profiteers don't mind replacing that position with someone who is sensible and able to speak.

He has big fists and is not easy to mess with. You can make money by following him. Just be a little more humble. It's not shameful to make money. This is what the foreigners here think now.

While Yan Xu was learning about the developments during this period, the lawyer also urgently summoned managers from various departments to the lobby.

Because of the expansion and improvement of power in recent years, the number of management has increased a lot, so many new managers have never seen the nominal leader of their power.

That's right, it was in name only. In their opinion, Master and Xiao Tianlang were the chief and second chief of this force. But now the two chiefs were showing great respect to a Taoist priest, which was difficult for them to understand.

It’s not that they haven’t heard of the legend of Yan Xu, but so what? It was just the courage of a common man. As for the supernatural things, haha, they were just scams. Who would take them seriously? Then they began to doubt their lives.

"I called you here this time, not to listen to my teachings or to give you any orders, but to fulfill the promise I made at the beginning, Master." Yan Xu flicked his whisk and said to his master in a cold tone.

"Master, I'm here." The master is now in a high position. It can be said that he and Xiao Tianlang jointly control this huge force. Therefore, no matter in front of the Qing Dynasty or foreigners, he has long learned to stand up straight. But in front of Yan Xu, he is unambiguous when he should kneel, and he calls him master without any hesitation and calls himself a villain.

"Howling Wolf."

"Boss." Xiao Tianlang lifted his cape and knelt down with his brothers. "You are the first to follow me. You have worked hard and made countless contributions over the years. Therefore, you can choose these positions."

Yan Xu threw out an object, which turned into a long bronze scroll that surrounded the lobby. There was no beginning or end, no support, and it just floated in the air, stunning everyone.

Those who knew about it were scratching their heads and ears excitedly, wishing they were the ones to be chosen. Those who first learned about it have still not come to their senses, but they have understood why their colleagues are so honest and hardworking, because they would do the same if they were in their place.

The master and the seven brothers of Xiaotianlang hurriedly looked up, and unexpectedly saw several familiar names. In addition to Uncle Jiu and others, Yang Zhenze and his son were also on the list, and they were ranked high.

Seeing this, not only did they not feel jealous, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

They had long discovered that they were getting further and further away from the master. It was not a question of catching up or not, but the difference between man and god was as huge as the chasm between heaven and earth.

Fortunately, although the master is standing higher and higher, he is still nostalgic, and that is enough.

After having a clear idea in mind, several people looked carefully at the vacant positions.

Yama, the Judge, and the Ten Yin Marshals, they dare not even think about these positions. Apart from these, there are also the City God and the Land God to choose from.

When several people had chosen, Yan Xu nodded and waved his hand, and their names appeared on the bronze scroll. At the same time, their bodies had dull eyes, but their souls left their bodies and hung above their bodies.

Because Yan Xu cast a spell, the invisible souls were clearly seen by everyone present. Although the souls of several people were vague, they could be recognized as the master and his companions. Their scalps immediately went numb because souls really existed.

At this moment, even the most skeptical person has to face the reality and start thinking about whether he has done anything immoral or betrayed others.

This was just the beginning. As the souls appeared, the life experiences of several people also emerged on the ancient scrolls, and the values ​​of sins and good deeds appeared, making it easy to understand what was going on, which made some people even more nervous.

Strictly speaking, the Master and Xiao Tianlang and the others cannot be called good people, they just have some bottom line. Therefore, if their fate follows their original trajectory, their ending is unlikely to be good, and they will not be able to rest in peace even after death.

But who can blame them for following the right person? They also share in the merit of protecting one side, so their merits outweigh their faults.

When they saw the huge difference in values, not only the masters and their companions breathed a sigh of relief, but even the bystanders breathed a sigh of relief, because it seemed that they could still be saved.

After confirming that the standards were met, several clear rays of light fell from the ancient bronze scroll, and the souls of the master and several others transformed. Not only did they look like real people, they were also wearing ancient official robes, and they all smiled happily.

Onlookers all looked envious. They are now quite successful, with wealth, status, power, and all these. The question is how many years can they enjoy these?

To have achieved their current status, none of them are young anymore, and the average life expectancy during this period is really not that high. Who knows when they will die? If they have committed many evil deeds by then, they will obviously go to hell.

They didn’t think there was anything wrong before because they didn’t believe it or they were just hoping for the best.

It is impossible not to believe it now. How can we enjoy ourselves in the future? The most important thing is to do good deeds and earn merits. We cannot be colleagues, with one sitting in the hall and the other kneeling below.
