It all started with one person becoming a shaman, but the Stand user...

However, this amount is not even a ripple in the face of a country that is already a major agricultural nation.

I randomly picked a rice wholesaler from outside the city and chatted with them for less than ten minutes.

The other party promised to ship regularly every week at the bulk wholesale price, without any formalities required.

Next, there will be a demand for crossbows, knives, spears, and clubs.

This is a bit troublesome.

Buying too many finished crossbows and bundles of arrows will inevitably attract attention.

It's different from other countries.

Those countries are more lenient with real firearms, let alone bows and arrows.

On the contrary, many places have stricter regulations on bulletproof vests and the like.

But here.

As long as you don't go out in groups to show off on the street, you can stock up on as much armor and bulletproof vests as you like.

Chapter 99 A loving father and a filial son

Not to mention firearms and the like, which definitely cannot be sold.

Even bows and crossbows would definitely be key objects to be monitored.

Fortunately, if we change our perspective and convert it into raw materials, it becomes quite easy.

And it's cheap too.

In this era, high-quality bamboo, birch, buffalo horn, sinew, raw lacquer, iron ore...

There are simply as many as you want.

In the world of "The Bad Guys", Qinghe Miao has no shortage of manpower.

It could be said that the land was full of refugees.

If there's no stable place to cultivate the land, then go and make bows and arrows for him.

It's a position, after all.

The raw materials are sourced from elsewhere and produced slowly by experienced craftsmen. No licenses are required, and no one is alerted. The cost is a fraction of what it would be in modern society.

It's true that only the rich are the bosses.

This is the right way to develop and utilize both worlds.

He put down his phone, sat up, and glanced at his account balance. He had spent nearly 800,000 yuan in just one day.

I'm not bragging, but I didn't feel bad about spending this money at all.

He had already made a fortune through smuggling in the world of "The Bad Guys".

He still has an entire warehouse full of gold bars like those he owns today.

Of course, the smuggling route that once generated a steady stream of profits is still there, and the people on both sides are still the same people.

Anyway, it's smuggling between two countries. Who you do business with doesn't matter.

What are Qinghe Miao and his friends' nationalities and what is their relationship?

It's just that the profits have all disappeared.

It became the bulk of every share, steadily falling into the pockets of Li Cunxu's faction.

As for why this wasn't done earlier between the two worlds?

This is naturally because Qinghe Miao's previous activity range was too small.

I know almost everyone in the network of relationships around that small county.

Any slight disturbance, such as someone making a fortune, can easily affect their parents' doorstep.

Like his previous student status.

If someone suddenly takes out a large amount of gold of unknown origin to exchange for supplies, it will attract too much attention.

Even if he is naturally unafraid, his parents, who are ordinary people, would probably be panicked if they were maliciously entangled with him.

Every day is unpleasant, and I have no emotional value.

Even if there is no physical injury, it is still quite painful.

In this life, a couple gave birth to him as his parents.

As a result, I feel upset every day because of him. Shouldn't that be wrong?

People have a deep-rooted attachment to their hometown because of their upbringing and experiences. If they can't make a living in that place because of this kind of thing, shouldn't they be even more wrong?

The reason why they didn't seek out Deng Youcai and his associates to exchange the gold is another matter entirely.

The two have known each other for about five or six years; they are very familiar with each other.

They knew exactly what each other had in their pockets.

Moreover, Qinghe Miao, being the younger one, could be said to have been watched grow up by these people.

He can easily fool strangers by using his identity as an alien, saying whatever he wants and not saying anything he doesn't want to say.

But Deng Youcai and Deng Youfu, what can they use to fool them?

Both of them are even practitioners from the same lineage.

What kind of shamanic arts do they not know, that Qinghe Miao has learned?

Therefore, Qinghe Miao would rather wait until she goes to university and comes to a big city thousands of miles away to solve problems with strangers.

Having acquired a wealth of skills, leaving the familiar environment brought a sense of complete liberation.

Like a dragon emerging from the abyss, its scales and claws flashing, like a young tiger roaring in the valley, causing all beasts to tremble in fear, like eagles testing their wings, stirring up dust and wind.

For him, unfamiliar places are far more conducive to growth than places where he was born and has ties to the outside world.

Today, Qinghe Miao was finally able to use her phone for a while after a long time.

I'm laughing like an idiot at old jokes from years ago on the internet.

Then, when it got late at night, he put down his phone and switched to another world.

The world of "Bad Guys", bedroom.

He stretched and picked up the later-era deluxe edition of the Lankavatara Sutra from the table.

This is a modern printed item that he specially bought in the main world. The text is clear, and it has been interpreted and annotated in detail throughout the ages.

Having studied the Lankavatara Diamond Sutra for so long, he has come to realize more and more that martial arts techniques can be mastered through diligent practice.

However, to truly grasp the core of the practice, one needs to study the classics and history.

When the mind is clear, the Qi flows smoothly.

Regarding this matter, Qinghe Miao suddenly had a vague feeling.

The proficiency levels for the "General Literature" and "General History" skills seem to be a bit low.

He flipped to the page he had last read, leaned against the headboard, and quietly read by the light of the lamp he had borrowed from the modern world.

The faint footsteps of night patrolling soldiers could be heard outside the window, and further away, the mountain wind rustled through the treetops.

As I read, my eyelids grew heavy.

He simply placed the book beside his pillow and fell into a deep sleep.

If we're talking about rest, this world is the most comfortable.

A high bed with soft pillows and a comfortable mattress are things he could never enjoy in modern times.

It is said that the food prepared in the kitchen tonight alone would be enough to get him beheaded three times in modern times.

……

In the main world, military training has begun as scheduled.

The September sun was still scorching, and the freshmen standing at attention on the parade ground looked utterly miserable.

Qinghe Miao stood in the queue, his posture upright and motionless.

This level of intensity isn't even a warm-up for him.

When others are sweating profusely and swaying on the verge of collapse.

He simply stood there quietly, his gaze unfocused, yet a wisp of his consciousness had already separated, slowly reciting the breathing techniques from the Lankavatara Diamond Sutra within his body.

The instructor walked past him, glanced at him a couple more times, and couldn't help but nod:

"This student is good; he has a good physical constitution."

Qinghe Miao just hoped that this guy wouldn't be so impulsive as to trigger his reaction.

How about I show these people what it means to pray for rain later?

……

Military training passed by easily.

In the world of "The Bad Guys", the situation is quietly changing.

Bianzhou, Jiaolan Palace.

Not long after Zhu Youzhen returned, he formally ascended the throne and became emperor amidst the congratulations of all the civil and military officials in the court.

But before he could be happy for long, his mood turned terribly gloomy.

Not long ago, Tongwen Hall and Huanyinfang joined forces and rescued the so-called "orphan of the Tang Dynasty" Li Xingyun from the encirclement.

The message spread throughout the world.

During the fight, his mother's body was further damaged.

Therefore, he decided to personally lead the expedition, with his troops heading straight for the State of Qi.

This also caused turmoil within the Jin state.

First, Li Keyong, the true ruler of the Jin state, emerged from the pass again.

The first thing he did after leaving prison was to hold Li Siyuan accountable for his "mishandling of the situation".

This resulted in Li Siyuan being stripped of all power in the Tongwen Academy, which he then took over personally.

In an instant, he reclaimed the power to mobilize high-level domestic forces.

In the world of martial arts, this is a very important authority.

Afterwards, Li Siyuan, the fake elder brother, suffered misfortune, but Li Cunxu, the real son, did not fare any better.

Standing in his father's shadow, his smile remained impeccable, but his eyes held an indescribable turmoil of emotions.

He originally planned to take advantage of the battle between Liang and Qi and the vulnerability of Bianzhou to launch a surprise attack on the enemy's stronghold and seize the throne in one fell swoop.

But this proposal was rejected without hesitation by the authorities.

There was no room for negotiation; they simply refused to provide troops.

For many years, his father had remained in seclusion, and he held all the power in the Jin state, both military and political.

He was used to giving orders, used to his generals bowing their heads, and used to the feeling of having absolute authority.

Now that his father is out of prison, he's become so domineering.

So what if they are father and son?

The alternation of power has always been a sensitive issue.

Moreover, this was during the chaotic Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, a time when fathers and sons frequently turned against each other and brothers often fought amongst themselves.

Li Cunxu maintained a respectful demeanor on the surface, but a fire was burning in his heart.
