Chapter 395 Liaozhou Iron Ship Incident
Chapter 395 Liaozhou Iron Ship Incident
But as soon as Lin Lan finished speaking, he saw a few wisps of blue mist slowly drifting into the studio from the window, and finally condensed into shape.
"Sorry, Mr. Head of State, I just went to the roof to communicate with the general agent of the Eastern Continent. Please forgive me for being late."
Jian Qianou, who had reunited into his own body, lowered his head to Lin Lan and said in a respectful tone.
Seeing this Jian Qianou that could completely turn into elemental mist, Lin Lan had to sigh again, this old guy is really a cruel person.
Although he gave up his real body, Jian Qianou could be regarded as having eternal life in a sense.
Although Lin Lan has only been in this different world for a year, after learning about the history of Olan in the academy, he can fully understand the ambitions of the Tianou Group.
Just like Blue Star's Age of Discovery, only the country that discovers the New World first can seize the opportunity and gain the most benefits by leveraging the early information gap.
Tianou Group has obviously understood this for a long time.
For hundreds of years, Tianou Group has strived to cooperate with the Oran Admiralty and successive Oran regimes to firmly control all navigation-related industries.
Even after joining the Candle Sea Chamber of Commerce, Tianou Consortium is undoubtedly the consortium that has the closest relationship with the Navy and still controls the transportation rights of the East and West continents.
The benefits brought by Tianou Group's doing so are undoubtedly fruitful.
Whether it was the Natlan Empire, the Teaching State of St. Rosolan, or the Nine Islands of Liaozhou, they were all discovered by the expedition fleet of the United States of Oran.
All these expedition fleets are fully sponsored by Tianou Group, so that Tianou Group can always profit from them as soon as possible.
As for why Lin Lan said Tianou Group was ambitious, it was because he had read such a record in the history book of Hongye Naval Academy, and it looked very familiar to him.
Iron ship incident.
This incident refers to the first time that the armed fleet of the United States of Orange landed on Inajin Island, one of the nine main islands of the Liaozhou Nine Islands.
At that time, the Tianou Group's expedition fleet was all an armed fleet composed of ironclad ships, and they used cannons to force open the country's gate to Liaozhou.
This is also the first time that the Liaozhou Nine Islands have come into the sight of the United States of Oran.
When Lin Lan saw this in the Oran history book, he couldn't help but think of Blue Star's "Black Ship Incident".
No matter where you look at it, the two are really similar.
The original White Eagle also used this method to break through the gate of Chongying Country.
Fortunately, in addition to being weak at sea, Liaozhou also had transcendent elemental power and various unique skills, and was able to compete with the Oran army that subsequently landed. This allowed the two countries to formally establish diplomatic relations as equals.
As the saying goes, dignity is only on the edge of the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon.
If Liaozhou failed to resist the invasion of the United States of Oran, I am afraid that the nine islands of Liaozhou would have become colonies of Oran long ago.
Moreover, even though the two countries established diplomatic relations, the United States of Oran still severely impacted the market of Liaozhou and Jiudao with its huge industrial productivity. Tianou Group even recruited a large number of Liaozhou people's labor force from Liaozhou.
This is how many Liaozhou residents in Oran came to be, and even after so many years, many of them have been completely assimilated into Oran culture.
Fortunately, the United States of Oran and Tianou Group have never discriminated against these residents. Oran had introduced policies decades ago to allow these residents of Liaozhou to have the same rights as Oran citizens.
Lin Lan looked at Jian Qianou, the Tianou lurker in front of him. This guy's whole body was composed of a soul composed of pure elements. He undoubtedly used the power of Gu Liaozhou.
He was extremely certain that the Tianou Group had definitely obtained many of the ancient Liaozhou's secret techniques from the Liaozhou Nine Islands.
Fortunately, this old guy is now completely impressed by him, and Rubik's Cube technology cannot be learned just by stealing it.
Even his ship girls and sirens have not yet cracked the limits of the Rubik's Cube.
However, just in case, Lin Lan felt it was necessary to provide insurance against a guy like this who had lived for who knows how many years.
An idea slowly emerged in his mind.
"Ms. Jian should have heard what we just said."
When the ladies of the White Eagle were packing up and preparing to leave, Lin Lan looked at Jian Qianou and asked without a trace of emotion in his tone.
"Um...what is the Head of State referring to?"
Hearing Jian Qianou raise his head and ask in return, Lin Lan couldn't help but sneer, this old guy is really good at pretending.
"I remember I told you when I was in the Western Continent that the number of the five major consortiums in Oran is indeed a bit too much."
Hearing Lin Lan's words, Jian Qianou trembled, as if he had guessed something.
Could it be that the head of state wants to...
"You also know that after ten years, Olan has adapted to the corporate government jurisdiction model of the Zhuhai Chamber of Commerce, so I plan to maintain this model in the future."
"After the Zhuhai Chamber of Commerce is completely banned, I plan to hand over the government directors of this new giant enterprise to the people with the most experience in managing enterprises."
"Master Jian has made great contributions to the birth of this giant enterprise, and Master Jian, you have always helped me a lot, so..."
Lin Lan looked directly at Jian Qian'ou and finished speaking, making Jian Qian'ou almost unable to believe his ears.
The mist all over his body was shaking and beating involuntarily, so that he couldn't say a word for a long while.
Excited, yes, excited.
This was an emotion that he thought would never appear again in the long years after he transformed into a soul body.
But at this moment, Jian Qianou found that he couldn't control his inner excitement.
He felt extremely wise in his decision to surrender to this young man. This was undoubtedly the most correct choice he had made in his life!
"It seems that Lady Jian has understood what I mean, but I believe you also understand that I am willing to hand over this position to you, and you must also express enough loyalty to me."
Seeing Jian Qianou's appearance, Lin Lan finished speaking in an understatement. There was already an illusory dark blue spell generated out of thin air in his hand, and he continued slowly:
"Integrate this spell into your body. From today on, I will regard you as my most loyal ally."
This spell is one of his new skills that just appeared in the brave skill bar, called elemental shock. Its effect is to cause a violent explosion of elemental energy in a large area.
It is especially effective for elemental bodies, that is, soul bodies.
Just like this illusory appearance, the Elemental Shock Talisman does not require paper and ink to draw, but is generated directly through mental power.
To make this spell effective, there is no need to ignite it with fire. Instead, as long as he has a thought, no matter how far away or where the spell is, it will explode directly.
Moreover, the elemental shock talisman can also be imprinted on the soul body. No matter how the soul body changes, the talisman will be bound to this soul body.
Except for himself, only someone whose mental power or spell skills are far superior to him at the same time can unlock it.
To be able to meet these two conditions at the same time, as a cheating hero who has reached the upper limit of his mental power, Lin Lan felt that there should not be many people in this different world.
Otherwise, if anyone could break the curse, then he would be too unworthy of a brave man.
Just when Lin Lan thought that Jian Qianou would definitely have to shirk it from him before he was willing to integrate it into his body.
The next second, Jian Qianou picked up the illusory charm from his hand without hesitation and inserted it into his abdomen.
Even before Lin Lan could react, everything was over, and the spell was completely imprinted on Jian Qianou's body.
"I am loyal to the head of state and I dare not have any second thoughts. From now on, I will devote myself to the head of state."
