Warhammer in a box

Chapter 412 Aurora Trade Route
After Zhang Heng left, the convoy of ten people also arrived here. On the way, they heard gunshots and immediately rushed over at full speed.

On the way here, they saw a golden meteor rising from the ground and flying away into the distance.

But when they arrived, Zhang Heng had already fled, leaving behind only two bodies that had been burned to ashes and a little girl.

When the little girl saw that the person coming was a soldier, she immediately went up and started crying.

The officer hurriedly asked the girl what happened to the steel, but after hearing the girl's story, the officer's first reaction was that the girl might have hallucinations.

"You said you saw God?"

After hearing the girl's affirmative answer, the officer immediately issued a gag order to all the soldiers. His first reaction was disbelief, but the golden meteor shooting up into the sky and its incredible speed made him unconsciously feel that what the girl said might be true.

"Squad Two, Squad Three, and Squad Four, continue searching here and contact the local government to block off this area. No one else can come in. Squad One, come with me to escort this little girl back. She is the only witness!"

"Yes!"

When the news was passed back to the military's combat command center, the general in charge immediately rushed to the scene. The information here was marked as top secret and sent to the country's highest authority and placed on the leader's desk.

Zhang Heng avoided all surveillance equipment and finally returned to his home before dawn.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he returned home. The risk of exposure in the big city was still too great, so he had decided to move his home to a more remote place.

The money that the Servo Skull helped him earn on the Internet was enough for him to buy a large villa or manor in the suburbs or mountains. The Servo Skull's hiding ability and terrifying computing power also made it impossible for anyone to track the source of the money.

While lying on the bed, he heard a ding-dong sound coming from his mobile phone. He picked up the phone and saw a pop-up window in the news app.

The content in the pop-up window mentioned that in his city, many people witnessed a meteor streaking across the sky at the same time at night.

The comments below are mixed, with all sorts of opinions.

There are aliens coming to Earth, secret government experiments, secret military weapons, and some say satellite debris in space.

Zhang Heng didn't expect that just his curious act would cause such a big disturbance in the outside world.

Before noon, official authoritative news organizations began to dispel rumors, and experts began to explain it as a rare astronomical phenomenon with a very serious tone and some scientific evidence.

However, the netizens who commented below still looked like they were enjoying the fun and were still expressing their own speculations.

"This time it's a big deal." Zhang Heng opened his phone and immediately started looking for an agent and looking for a new property.

But in the next one or two days, he obviously found that there were more and more police officers around, and even some community workers began to knock on doors from house to house and conduct investigations in the tone of a census.

The government still found the approximate range of Zhang Heng's flight into the sky from radar records.

But Zhang Heng was not particularly worried. At least his identity was not fake. His background was clean and there would not be any major problems even if his records were traced back ten generations.

And now he no longer needs to exchange gold for funds.

After dealing with the door-to-door investigation, community worker Zhang Heng came to the box again and looked at the world in the box.

At this time, Ludwig was meeting He Zhen, a businessman from Zhendan, in the Government Affairs Hall. He Zhen had Otto's recommendation, and Ludwig was discussing some things with him under this pretext.

He Zhen, who was sitting opposite Ludwig, couldn't help but show some nervousness. Looking at the other's wings, He Zhen also swallowed his saliva. However, the ruler of Zhendan could also transform into a dragon, which made Ludwig's wings not so amazing in comparison. "Emperor Ludwig, thank you for your reception. It is my honor to meet you, the trusted ruler of the empire!"

"He Zhen, you are our friend because you have been recommended by Otto. You have provided him with help, and I will also provide you with convenience. As you can see, we have just won an unparalleled victory in the war with Chaos, but at the same time, we have also paid a lot of price. The Empire welcomes traders like you very much, and we are also happy to conduct some win-win trade with you!"

He Zhen was also excited when he heard Ludwig's words. Things were going much more smoothly than he had imagined.

"Of course, Your Majesty. My caravan brought precious spices, fine silk, and exquisite jadeite from Zhendan this time! I believe these will be very popular. In order to celebrate your coronation to the throne, I am willing to give you all the goods in my caravan as gifts."

He Zhen felt that he had shown his utmost sincerity. The things he had brought in the past could always be sold for a good price in the empire, but this time it was obviously a bit beyond his expectations.

Ludwig didn't reply, but spoke to him.

"He Zhen, let's talk about the gifts later. I believe you must be hungry after the long journey. Come and join us for the post-war celebration banquet."

After hearing Ludwig's words, He Zhen hadn't figured out the meaning behind them, but he was still shocked that an outsider could attend such a banquet, and his goods were worth a large sum of money. He had understood the political structure of the empire, and even the emperor could not turn a blind eye to money.

But what he didn't know was that Emperor Ludwig was different from any previous emperor.

He is the supreme ruler of secular rights and has real power.

When He Zhen arrived at the celebration banquet with Ludwig and ate the food on the table, he finally understood what Ludwig meant.

Ludwig was telling him implicitly that he didn't think highly of these things of his.

"He Zhen, are you used to the food?"

"Of course, Your Majesty, I have never eaten such delicious food." Although He Zhen looked very satisfied, he felt tremendous pressure in his heart. The banquet hall was also on the tallest building in Terra. On the way here, he looked down from above. What he thought in his heart was that perhaps the place where the Dragon Emperor lived was not as good as here.

"He Zhen Empire can provide you with many goods that you never dared to think of. If you can bring these things back to Zhendan, I believe you can get profits that you never dared to imagine."

"Your Majesty, I understand what you mean. Your country and city have prospered incredibly under your leadership, but I do not have the strength to match your trade. I believe you must have other needs for me, right?"

"You are very smart, He Zhen. I believe you have already had contact with Otto. You also know that Otto's mission is to open up a trade route to Zhendan. I can provide you with goods for free, but you also have to pay."

"You say."

"I need you to use your connections and resources in Aurora to help Otto. I believe he will need your help when he first arrives in Aurora. I believe it will be much easier for him to have a person from Aurora to lead the way."

"I understand what you mean. But..."

"I understand your concerns, He Zhen. Don't worry, I won't ask you to do anything that will harm Aurora. Your only task is to help Otto establish his Chamber of Commerce in Aurora. This will be beneficial to both you and me."

"But your majesty, you may not know that business is not particularly valued in Zhendan, and I don't have as much power as you think."

"Oh, that only means that your scale is not big enough. No one can refuse a large amount of benefits. If he refuses, it only means that the benefits are not big enough. He Zhen, I suggest that you accept this agreement."

"Since you value it so much, I will definitely do my best."

"You are very wise, He Zhen. The officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will provide you with a list soon. You can bring as many as you can. We will continue to employ the ogre army, and they will escort you!"
