A week later, Zhang Ye traveled around Chuzhou for a long time, and after several on-site inspections, he finally decided to locate the shipyard in Haibin County.

The geographical location there is good and can fully accommodate the task of launching new ships. Moreover, it is located on the railway transportation line, so it is convenient to transport various resources back and forth.

The most important thing is that there used to be a large shipyard there. Although the machinery and equipment inside are outdated and can no longer be used, there is still no problem with the site. Once the personnel and equipment are arrived, work can start immediately.

With such convenient conditions, Zhang Ye did not hesitate and immediately exchanged for an SS-level arsenal, ordering everyone to immediately deploy and strive to build and launch new ships in the shortest time possible.

He had a strong premonition that this peaceful life might not last long.

We must be prepared before danger comes.

That afternoon, the gray sky did not continue to snow. Zhang Ye stayed in his temporary residence wrapped in a military coat, checking the various intelligence information compiled in recent times.

The resources needed by Silla have been shipped out of the port city, and according to intelligence, the rebels are quite capable and took the goods away right under the noses of the Sakura people.

Whether they can launch a counterattack next depends on whether those people have enough courage.

"Marshal, we have a visitor!"

At the door, Lu Shan walked quickly up and reminded in a low voice.

"It's Eagle Sauce's people!"

"Oh, they're really good at finding things. Even hiding here, they can still find me."

There was a special light flashing in Zhang Ye's eyes, and he knew what these people were trying to do without even thinking about it.

"Please come in and see what kind of stinky farts they can let out!"

"Yes, Marshal!"

Lu Shan turned and walked out the door.

Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Ye tidied up his clothes and put away the messy documents on his desk.

Two minutes later, just as he finished his work, Lu Shan came to the office with two blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners.

When they saw Zhang Ye sitting behind his desk drinking tea, the two foreigners looked at each other at the same time. Although they didn't say anything, their meaning was very clear.

This is the highest commander of the Independence Army!?

The man in front of him looked no more than 25 years old. How could he possibly be the leader of hundreds of thousands of troops at this age?!

Although they had heard earlier that Zhang Ye was very young, they did not take it seriously at the time, thinking it was just hype from the outside world.

However, when they met today, they truly realized the meaning of the word "youth".

But for them, young people have their own advantages, and in comparison, they prefer to face such young people.

After all, the saying that old people become cunning is not groundless. Those older warlords are all cunning people. It is harder than climbing to the sky to gain benefits from them.

On the contrary, young people are often more easily persuaded. Just by discussing ideals and the concepts of the new era, as long as a few points of convergence are found, they may be able to quickly narrow the distance between them and reach a consensus.

"Gentlemen, the man before you is the highest commander of our Independence Army, Marshal Zhang Yezhang!"

Lu Shan led the two foreigners closer and introduced them softly.

One of them looked to be about thirty years old. He was wearing a black coat and a top hat, looking very gentlemanly. He smiled and bowed to greet me.

"Hello, Marshal Zhang. I am Morton Rodney, the head of the Eagle Sauce Consulate in Nanjing. I am very happy to meet you."

"Hehe, welcome Mr. Morton, please take a seat!"

Zhang Ye smiled gently and gave instructions to Lu Shan who was standing beside him.

"Go get two cups of my prized coffee."

"Okay, Marshal!"

Lu Shan pursed his lips to prevent himself from laughing out loud.

Where did he get his collection of coffee? Last time when he was in Hong Kong, he just stole a few coffee beans from the hotel. It’s only been a few days, and it’s become a collection?

Of course, given the current situation, if the Marshal says it is a treasure, then it is a treasure, there is nothing wrong with it!

"You're welcome, Marshal. I'm just here to sit for a while. I've always heard of you, but I've never met you."

Morton felt that he was valued, and the smile on his face became even more intense. He then started chatting politely.

"I happened to be on a business trip in Chuzhou these days. After hearing that you were here too, I took the liberty to come and visit you."

"Mr. Morton is too polite. We are all friends. There is no need to be so polite."

Zhang Ye really likes chatting with these foreigners. He can learn a lot of hypocritical diplomatic tactics by being with them.

If nothing else, at least her smile was pretty, revealing a sincerity mixed with the smell of body odor.

"Thank you for your trust, Marshal Zhang. We, the Eagle Sauce, are a country that loves peace and development. We really appreciate friends like you who work hard for our country and our people."

Morton leaned on his cane and the topic began to change.

"When the Independence Army first entered Shanghu some time ago, our people had a brief conversation with Commander Lu Shan and offered many industries with great sincerity."

"There's no other reason for doing this. I just want to build a bridge of friendship with the independence army and promote the development between the two countries."

“Oh, how should this develop?”

A barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of Zhang Ye's lips.

"Please enlighten me, Mr. Morton!"

"Haha, since Marshal Zhang is interested, I'll just say a few words. If there's anything wrong, please bear with me."

Seeing how anxious he was, Morton could no longer conceal the excitement in his eyes and began to talk incessantly.

"Daxia has gone through so many years of feudal dynasties. Whether it is industrial development or economic construction, it has fallen behind."

"In recent years, the major warlords have been trying every possible way to expand their own territories, but no one has ever truly considered the people at the bottom."

"This is an unfair decision and an act of human rights extinction!"

This foreigner is really good. Just from these few sentences, you can tell that he did his homework before coming here.

At least he has studied Zhang Ye seriously, otherwise he would not have started with the people.

"Yes, Mr. Morton makes a lot of sense. Go on."

Zhang Ye nodded calmly, thinking in his mind how to set a trap and get some benefits from them.

The 100 million deposit from Sakura Country was delivered three days ago, and Zhang Ye repeatedly requested that he did not want dollars or knives, but only gold.

This matter caused a lot of trouble for the Sakura people. After several rounds of twists and turns and a lot of effort, they finally collected more than 100 tons of gold bricks.

When the money was delivered to the Qizhou treasury, the people in charge of the treasury were dumbfounded.

I have never seen so many gold bricks in my life, more than a hundred tons. This stuff is more impactful than a mountain of ocean!
