At dawn, as the sun rises, a thin mist swirls around the forest.
A long caravan of oxen was traveling north along the cement road through the forest.
"This cement road, was it built by Big Shot Ling Yi?" said the oxcart leading the way.
Super Bored Person is peering out the car window at the scenery.
"Yes!" Ling Yi nodded.
His eyes, however, were fixed on the system interface.
The fan forest has grown again.
That's quite normal, after all, Ling Yi made a lot of arrangements and met with many of his subordinates last night to plan this trip to Beiye Commandery.
Especially special forces.
After arriving in this world, Ling Yi created a total of five special forces teams.
The Azure Dragon Special Operations Team, the White Tiger Special Operations Team, the Vermilion Bird Special Operations Team, the Black Tortoise Special Operations Team, and the Shadow Guards!
Over the past three years, the five teams have secretly helped Ling Yi resolve countless troubles.
With a business as large as Ling Yi's, how could it not attract the covetous eyes of others?
From the very beginning, the original gangs, wealthy gentry, and powerful families were all involved.
Later, it came to the local government.
They've all been dealt with by Ling Yi's special forces.
Later, Ling Yi Ling Yi found it troublesome, so he simply used money to pave the way, replacing everyone from the governor of Beiye Commandery down with his own people.
Only now has Beiye Commandery been transformed by Ling Yi into something as solid as an ironclad fortress.
The current Beiye Commandery is truly a place where Ling Yi has absolute power.
However, very few people actually know of Ling Yi's existence.
Only the special forces members and some core leaders knew that Ling Yi was the behind-the-scenes boss of Blue Star Trading Company.
Knowing that Ling Yi is the true ruler of Beiye Commandery.
This time, on the surface, Ling Yi brought Wu Bai members of the Azure Dragon Special Operations Team.
In secret, however, they arranged for three thousand men.
Of course, the special forces were protecting their oxcart convoy under the guise of Hire guards.
Rather than Ling Yi's personal bodyguard.
In the Sun and Moon Empire, the number of servants and guards is no more than a hundred.
Furthermore, it is strictly forbidden for individuals to possess knives, guns, and other weapons.
In TV dramas or short dramas, it is common to see servants and guards carrying swords.
It is not allowed here.
They possess weapons such as knives and guns, or have more than a hundred servants or guards.
Failure to report will be considered treason.
The punishment ranged from exile to execution on the spot.
Of course, this refers to household guards and personal protection forces, which are private armed forces.
But there is another industry in this world called a security escort agency, which is similar to a security company.
Escort agencies are a profession.
In government offices, there are documents on file.
Each time a bodyguard goes on a mission, he needs to register with the government.
Only those with registration documents are allowed to provide escort services.
Furthermore, security escort agencies also have different levels.
The higher the level, the more bodyguards and escorts can be on each escort mission.
Ling Yi's five special forces units, on the surface, are bodyguards.
At most, a single recruitment can only involve Wu Bai hundred bodyguards.
Escorts were also not allowed to privately possess weapons such as swords, spears, bows, and arrows.
Therefore, Ling Yi's Wu Bai- strong guard wore soft leather armor and carried "baseball bats".
Its shape is very similar to a baseball bat.
It is a common weapon used by ordinary guards in this world.
This thing also has a scientific name, called "shaobang".
However, the weapon in Ling Yi's special forces soldier's hand is no ordinary weapon.
It is a modified and disguised Charge.
It contains 20 rounds of ammunition and is a Charge capable of automatic fire.
Normally, they pretend to be decent, but when it matters, they become a deadly weapon capable of Sweep everything in an instant.
Each special forces soldier carries five magazines, containing 100 rounds of ammunition.
Including the 20 rounds that come with the gun, you have a total of 120 bullets.
The Wu Bai bodyguards that Ling Yi brought were enough to fight a small battle.
The premise is that no immortals come out to cause trouble.
As for this cement road...
"I had someone tinker with the cement a year ago. I only remembered the general idea, but I didn't expect to succeed in less than a month."
Ling Yi casually explained to the Bored person.
"However, only the main roads within the Great Wind City area are paved with cement; outside of Great Wind City, they are still dirt roads!"
At this point, Ling Yi closed the system interface.
He glanced at the Super Bored Person and said, "Once we leave Great Wind City, we need to split up."
"It's too conspicuous for so many of us to be together."
The Super Bored Person shrugs, completely unconcerned.
He was just like the other fans that Ling Yi Summon.
The excitement of having just traveled through time hasn't worn off yet.
I have absolutely no plans for the future.
Everything is new and exciting to me now, and I'm curious about everything.
Ling Yi will not go with them.
At the very least, there should be some distance between them.
Besides being too flashy, the reason is...
Even though these people are wearing clothes from this world, they still don't fit in.
Whether it's their temperament or their speaking style.
Who knows, these guys might cause trouble.
To be precise, Ling Yi was afraid they would cause trouble.
These Summon fans can Resurrection even if they die.
But Ling Yi only has one life.
If it gets stuck, it's gone.
"Brother, in TV dramas, don't people in ancient times always travel by horse-drawn carriage? Using an oxcart seems so low-class!"
"You're not short of money," the Super Bored Person asked, puzzled.
"The horse's stamina isn't good. It's about 100 kilometers from Red Maple Town to Great Wind City, and from Great Wind City to North Ye Cheng, it's over 300 kilometers."
"Cows have more stamina for long-distance running."
"Also, there are more cows than horses in this world, and they're cheaper!"
"Of course, the most crucial point is that horses are strategic resources, and ordinary people are not allowed to trade them."
Even wealthy families need to apply to the government for a purchase qualification.
The Super Bored Person nodded.
"I see, this is really different from the ancient times we see in TV dramas!"
"That's definitely different!"
At that moment, the Super Bored Person suddenly chuckled, as if struck by a sudden thought.
Ling Yi moved a little further away from this guy.
Has this guy gone crazy from drinking at the Spring Flower House these past few days?
"Hey, do you think those Jianghu heroes of ancient times always rode donkeys or oxen when they traveled?"
"The imagery is incredible, wow."
In Ling Yi's mind, a vivid image instantly appeared.
However, if there really were so-called knights-errant in ancient times on Blue Star, they most likely didn't ride oxen, horses, or donkeys.
In ancient times, cattle, horses, donkeys, and mules were all top-tier resources.
Equivalent to a modern car.
In ancient times, knights-errant would most likely travel on foot.
There are probably not many people who can actually use mounts.
He shook his head, trying to clear the inexplicable images from his mind.
Ling Yi asked the Super Bored Person, "I have something important to ask you."
"Brother, tell me. I'll tell you everything I can."
Ling Yi rolled her eyes.
"If you log off, when you log back in, do you log back in from the same spot, or can you log back in from somewhere else?"
The Super Bored Person thought for a moment and said, "There are three ways."
"The first one can log in immediately."
"Secondly, you can choose the coordinate anchor point we set for the online connection."
"For example, my current coordinate anchor point is in your yard."
"However, there is only one coordinate anchor point, but it can be changed at any time."
"The third option is that you can Summon us, who are already dead, to your side."
"However, it will require you to consume one Summon fee."
"For example, with just one or two taels of silver, I can be instantly Resurrection and placed beside you without any waiting."
