"General Chiman, your military exploits this time are not small, and you will definitely get the rewards you deserve. Wait patiently!" Gu Mu blinked his eyes and opened his mouth to deal with it.
"Waiting for you, uncle!" The second clone cursed in his heart with a smile. Since he had no money, he was too lazy to waste any more words.
He picked up the teacup in his hand and studied it carefully, as if there was a beauty in the tea, and he looked at it with relish.
A moment later, Qiao Yong walked in with Qiao Wenhu with a gloomy face. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Gu Mu sitting on the main seat.
Then his face turned even darker, he suppressed his anger, clenched his fists and sat down on his left hand.
"Forget it, it's none of my business, just watch the fun, Qiao Momo's girl is not that big-faced!" The second clone glanced at her and shook his head slightly in his heart.
According to the rules, even if Gu Mu has a high level and seniority, he is still a guest after all.
It's okay for the master to let you sit in the main seat. If you sit on the main seat before the master arrives, you don't take the master seriously.
The room was silent for a few seconds.
Qiao Yong picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Uncle Pastor Gu, my nephew has something unclear. Please clarify.
A few days ago, the Tauren attacked the Eight Gate Base, and our Blackstone Ridge base sent almost all 300 starships to support it.
This time the tauren raided our Black Rock Ridge, why did Marshal Gulan only send a mere hundred starships at first?
If Gaoyi, the gray stone base, hadn't enlisted the help of the Wumen fleet, I'm afraid my nephew would have been beheaded by the tauren long ago."
"My dear nephew, you misunderstood!"
Gu Mu said with a slightly unhappy expression: "It's not that Senior Brother Gulan doesn't want to send more fleets, it's actually the Minotaurs who have many tricks up their sleeves. Maybe they just want to trick reinforcements into attacking the Eight Gate Base.
Besides, make every effort to defend the Eight Gates Base. This is something we decided together at the Eight Sects meeting, and you have to understand this!"
Qiao Yong gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and continued: "Okay, let's not talk about the rescue. Our Black Rock Ridge base suffered heavy losses this time. The loss of troops alone reached more than two million, and we are in urgent need of replenishing our defense strength.
But why did Marshal Gulan call our Wentian Sect's fleet back halfway?"
"My dear nephew, this is what's wrong with you!"
Unexpectedly, Gu Mu glared and began to scold Qiao Yong: "You found that the tauren had hoisted the black flag, why didn't you delay the time and notify us to arrive quickly?
Have you never thought that once the flag of our Eight Gate Base appears on the battlefield, according to the rules of the black flag, the Tauren will not be able to launch a major attack on the Eight Gate Base within one year.
Don’t you know how great a benefit this is to our entire sect alliance?”
"This?" Qiao Yong looked confused, his mouth open and he had nothing to say.
"Awesome!" The second clone also opened his mouth. Not knowing what to say, he secretly extended his thumb and gave it a thumbs up!
An idol, to be able to say such shameless words, is definitely an idol, and I am not as good as him!
Seeing Qiao Yong being questioned, Gu Mu's eyes flashed with pride, and he continued: "You are still young and inexperienced, so I don't blame you for missing this opportunity.
As for Senior Brother Gulan, he transferred back to the fleet midway, is this normal?
Since the Tauren have raised the black flag, they will not launch a major attack on your three bases within a year. Why do you still need so many starships?
Putting it here is a complete waste.
Let me tell you, not even one of them should be left behind.
Senior Brother Gulan loves you and knows that you were greatly frightened this time, so he gritted his teeth and left a hundred ships for you.
You kid, you don't know how to be grateful, and you are still making baseless accusations here. It's really inappropriate!
This kind of mistake cannot be made again in the future.
You will also be the leader in the future, so you must remember it!"
"Me!" Qiao Yong's face turned red and he felt like he was about to explode with anger, but he couldn't say a word to refute.
It's obvious that I'm at a disadvantage, but why do others seem to make so much sense?
"I'm convinced!"
The eyes of the second clone looking at Gu Mu were starting to shine. In terms of shamelessness, this old man was definitely the first person to convince him.
You clearly take possession of other people's things, yet you can still speak so eloquently.
"Brother Gu Priest, I admire you, I admire you. I, Jiu Shang, have learned a lot today!" Wu Jiu Shang laughed and held his hands, almost crying.
"Jiu Shang, what happened here is over. If you don't go back, the next thing is our alliance's internal affairs!" Gu Mu glanced at Wu Jiu Shang somewhat unhappily and started to chase them away.
He can do something about Qiao Yong and the two juniors, but he can't do anything about the people from Wudi Palace.
Wu Jiushang smiled and said: "Brother Chi Man and I still have something to discuss privately, and we can't leave now."
"It's up to you!" Gu Mu snorted with a dark face, turned to look at the second clone, and said very kindly: "Your Gray Stone Base did a good job this time, and Senior Brother Gulan and I are very satisfied.
Didn't you just ask for a reward? After thinking about it, I think it should be heavily rewarded.
Two thousand miles north of the Eight Gate Base, there is a super floating stone mine, which was previously a base of our Shaking Sky Sect.
I make the decision, and as a reward, your Langya country will take over, what do you think, are you satisfied with this reward?"
"Large floating stone mine? Can you make the decision?"
When the second clone heard these words, he immediately lost his composure and his expression became solemn.
Levitation stone is one of the most important materials for building starships. It is what enables starships to float in the air. It is extremely rare in quantity and is highly sought-after even in rich ancient battlefields.
Moreover, the major forces themselves do not have enough of this resource, and it is almost invisible in the market. It is a resource that no one can buy even if they have money.
Therefore, knowing that Gu Mu must have bad intentions, he was also moved.
After all, if you miss this opportunity, it will probably be difficult to find another floating stone mine in a short time.
What's more, it is a large mine, with a year's output capable of building five hundred starships.
Even if you can't use it yourself, if you can exchange it for other precious resources on the market, it will definitely be a hot commodity.
"Of course I can make the decision. What I, Gu Mu, say in Shaking Sky Sect still has weight!" Gu Mu smiled and nodded: "If you are worried, I can ask Senior Brother Gu Lan to make a public announcement and reward the Floating Sky Mountain to Langya Kingdom!
"
"Okay, I want this floating mountain, Langya!" The second clone stood up and nodded decisively.
For the sake of a large floating stone mine, even if there was a fire pit in front of him, he stepped on it!
"Wait a moment!"
Wu Jiu Shang seemed to have remembered something, his face suddenly changed, and he stood up: "Why are you so impatient? We can't have this floating mountain!"
"Why?" The second clone frowned and looked over.
Gu Mu laughed, he didn't stop him, he was using a conspiracy, even he was tempted by such a big bait, he didn't believe Langya could resist the temptation.
