Yanghe County, Jinwu City...

Standing on the top of a mountain outside Jinwu City and looking at Jinwu City, Zhang Tie couldn't hide his excitement.

Four years ago, Jinwu City was just an idea on drawings by Zhang Tie and his brother Zhang Yang, but today, the old idea has become a reality.

Compared to Taixia’s first-class city, Jinwu City, which has a city area of ​​only more than 100 square kilometers, can only be regarded as a small city, but the excitement brought by the endless airships above Jinwu City and the bustling crowds outside Jinwu City , But people forget that this is a small city, and regard it as a bustling commercial center or a regional air traffic hub.

The railways and highways have been completed at this time. Standing high, you can see the extensive railway and highway transportation network with Jinwu City as the core and radiating in four directions. The smoke-bending train is like a snake on the railway. Mercedes-Benz, on the highway, all kinds of vehicles coming and going.

Because the city is too lively, there are two tall and majestic sub-forts that Zhang Tie didn't expect, just a mile away, guarding Golden Crow City like two silent guards, playing a role in diverting the flow of people. Many of the airships going to and from Jinwu City, many parked directly in the airship bases outside the two tall mate forts.

And surrounding Jinwu City and the two sub-forts, on the ground tens of kilometers around, some villages and towns, as well as factories, have begun to form, everything in front of them is thriving and full of vitality.

Zhang Tie also saw a large barracks outside the city.

Like Golden Crow City, the large-scale barracks are also very lively. Of course, this lively is the lively on the battlefield, composed of steam armored vehicles flying back and forth, as well as the shouts, collisions, flying sweat and dust of countless soldiers. .

Under Zhang Tie's Lianhua, even though it was tens of kilometers away, everything in that barracks still clearly appeared in front of Zhang Tie, as clear as watching the palm prints in his hand.

The flag hanging on this barracks is not the flag of Taixia Youzhou officer army, nor the flag of Huaiyuantang Zhang Family, but a Golden Crow flag.

The Golden Crow flag is exactly the same as the logo of the Golden Crow Merchant Group, but it is more murderous. On the left and right sides of the Golden Crow, the Golden Crow’s claws hold the shield while holding the sword.

This is the symbol of the armed guards of the Golden Crow Business Group, in other words, the symbol of Zhang Tie's private army.

Under the Golden Crow's banner, the determined expressions on the faces of the soldiers in training did not escape Zhang Tie's eyes.

The dust condenses with sweat, leaving black sweat grooves on the faces of the soldiers on the battlefield. The officers are roaring, and the ballistas on the steam armored vehicles are also roaring. The rhythmic vibration brought by the steam weapons Amidst the rumbling, the target ground on the **** of the shooting range was hit everywhere with pits...

...

Just by looking at the size of the barracks and the number of people trained on the battlefield, Zhang Tie roughly estimated the number of the armed forces of the Golden Crow Merchant Group—about 100,000.

Having not returned home for four years, the current Zhang family is no longer the original Zhang family.

...

Excited, Zhang Tie looked at the Golden Crow City in the distance for a while, and finally took a deep breath, and moved away from the top of the mountain.

Half an hour later, Zhang Tie appeared under the huge shadow of the Jinwu City Wall, raised his head, and looked at the insanely tall Jinwu City wall.

Standing on the top of the distant mountain just now, looking condescendingly, I didn't think how high the wall of Golden Crow City was. When he came under the wall, Zhang Tie felt that the wall of Golden Crow City was too high.

In the entire Youzhou, the city wall of Youzhou City, a first-class city, is only more than 70 meters high, while the city wall of Jinwu City is more than 100 meters high, like a high tower, standing under the city wall of Jinwu City, raising your head, it feels To the Golden Crow City, the momentum of Mount Tai was the same.

All kinds of city defense machinery are lined on the city wall. Steam ballistas and heavy centrifugal turrets arm the entire Golden Crow City like a steel hedgehog. Outside the city wall, there are pieces of movable city wall steel armor. It is no longer the setting of the city wall, but the configuration of the battle castle.

If Golden Crow City is regarded as a city, it is only a small city, but if Golden Crow City is regarded as a fortress, it is already a big fort.

The Golden Crow City was built after his own accident. Looking at the Golden Crow City in front of him, Zhang Tie knew how his family and his brother felt when they built the Golden Crow City.

If it were not for security reasons, Golden Crow City would not have built such a high and deterrent wall. This city wall is actually a portrayal of my heart. In the past few years, maybe my brother has been thinking about how to make this family strong in Taixia and no longer let anyone in this family. Encounter any misfortune again.

No, I'm back this time. From then on, no one can bully this family member anymore!

Zhang Tie said to himself secretly.

...

"Wow, the wall of this Golden Crow City is so tall, even higher than the first-class city..." Not far from Zhang Tie, a 17 or 18-year-old boy also stood under the wall, raising his head in wonder at the Golden Crow. The majesty of the city walls.

Next to this young man, there is a middle-aged man in his 30s and 40s. Both of them are dressed as businessmen. The young man looks a little immature, but the middle-aged man has a shrewdness. The two faces Somewhat similar, it's probably father and son.

Many people who came to Jinwu City for the first time would stop for a while under the city wall and look up to admire the majestic wall of Jinwu City. For this reason, Zhang Tie and the boy standing under the wall did not appear especially.

"Would you like to take a photo under the Golden Crow City? Two gold coins at a time. This is the highest city wall in the entire Northeast Supervisory Mansion. Pass by, don't miss the opportunity..." Seeing Zhang Tie and the boy stop here, he will immediately Someone with a camera slung over to get business.

It turns out that this city wall can also become a scene of Golden Crow City.

Zhang Tie laughed blankly in his heart.

"Let’s go, stay in Advanced City, and go to the queue to pick up the cards tonight. If we are lucky, we should be able to get a box of school-wide potions for a few days..." The middle-aged man pulled Pulling the young man, ignoring the peddling of photographers, directly led the young man into the city.

"Dad, is this all-in-one medicine really easy to sell in the states outside?" the boy asked in a low voice, very vigilant.

"It's very popular. I have already contacted the sales. It is in Tongzhou. There are twelve full-effect potions in a box. You can make a net profit of 24 gold coins by adding two gold coins to each one in the past. This is not much money. Although the road is a bit harder, a bit bumpy, and it takes a lot of time to travel, but if you are lucky, you and my father and son, you can run twice a year..." The middle-aged man said in a low voice as he walked.

"In the future, if I have money, let's buy an airship too!" said the young man, in his immature voice, there was an ambition that a newborn calf was not afraid of tigers.

"Yes, it's good to have this ambition. The Hong family in our city started with a father and son as a trader and a small business..." The father patted his son on the shoulder and encouraged with satisfaction.

The two Shangshang fathers and sons whispered, and then they squeezed into the crowd entering the city gate. At the gate of Jinwu City, there were also two groups of city guards and officers, and the soldiers and officers guarding the city watched as they entered. The faces of people of all colors in the city and the packages they carry with them are generally not inspected or made difficult unless they are particularly eye-catching.

Seeing the father and son entering the city, Zhang Tie also walked over, mixed in the bustling crowd, preparing to enter the city.

At this moment, Zhang Tie is of medium build and slightly strong. He is dressed like a samurai in Taixia. He is neither ostentatious nor mediocre. He looks powerful and has nothing too strange on his face. There is only this samurai. It should be a touch of fierceness and toughness, with an ordinary saber slung on his waist.

People who were almost dressed up, Zhang Tie could see seven or eight people in the surrounding crowd.

The guards of the trade group, the lone samurai, and some powerful tradesmen, almost all look like this.

Compared with when he first arrived in Taixia, Zhang Tie made a careful comparison and found that the number of people carrying weapons in the crowd had quietly increased.

When Zhang Tie was about to enter the city, he saw an officer walking down the passage above the city gate in a hurry, and directly whispered a few words to an officer guarding the city gate. The officer was shocked. He tidyed up his clothes quickly.

The words of the officer who came down from the city tower not only reached the ears of the guarding officer, but also in the ears of Zhang Tie.

The sentence was, "The city chief is here, pay attention..."

Hearing these words, Zhang Tie's footsteps almost stopped suddenly.

Santo, isn't that his father?

Just a few seconds later, a convoy of four luxurious black cars drove quickly from the carriageway to the gate of the city, and stopped outside the city. Several people walked off the black cars. The officer at the gate of the city hurriedly walked over, respectfully saluted, and then consciously followed behind the few people who got out of the car, stopped and pointed outside the city.

Because of the arrival of these people, many people who were entering the city turned their heads and looked at them curiously.

However, the sharp eyes of the bodyguards standing around those people and the breath of thirteenth level or above from the body make people who are curious and looking can only maintain this curious and looking look, no one can walk. past.

Zhang Tie’s father, Zhang Ping, was surrounded by the crowd, and he came to the place where Zhang Tie was standing just now. He raised his head and covered a pergola in his hands. He looked at the tall walls of Jinwu City, "This wall is indeed too high. , It seems murderous, making the atmosphere of Golden Crow City a little tense, it seems really necessary to beautify it appropriately..."...

As Dad Zhang Tie said, there was a stenographer who was accompanying him with a notebook and quickly jotted down his words...
