Chapter 228: Accepting the duel (extra)

The ships approached the shore. The Giant Shark Gang elites had not solved their curses and could only stay at the Central State port, not being able to come on land. Chu Tian brought the five Yu Brothers into the city.

When Central State's army came back in triumph, Central State was naturally stirred.

Although the news from Thunder State had not yet reached Central State, the soldiers quickly spread the news across the city. Chu Tian was once again thrown into the spotlight and his image was raised another level.

After all, something that the three Marquises could not do was done by Chu Tian. He was able to save the entirety of Thunder State!

The change in Central State City was very big. Many main streets now had street lamps and most public areas now had broadcast towers. As long as one went to the square or a business street, they would be able to hear beautiful music. Everything made the lives of the Central State citizens richer.....This was the change brought by Miracle Commerce.

What Chu Tian was surprised about was that quite a few people of Central State had a strange black item. It was around one foot wide and five foot long and weighed over ten pounds, but it was releasing the sound of Miracle Commerce's broadcast!

"Is this the portable radio?"

This must be the work of the young miss!

The phonograph and radios that Chu Tian made were big and bulky, not suited to being carried around. The young miss always had the idea of improving it, so the young miss had personally translated the ancient book on mechanical techniques that Chu Tian had brought out of the trial tower for Tong Xiaoyu. Then she worked together with Tong Xiaoyu on how to make it smaller.

After going for a stroll for a week, it had already been finished?

This efficiency was not bad!

The portable radio was only one eighth of the size of the normal radio. Although its signal and sound were both weaker, it had greatly increased portability which would make it more popular.

Chu Tian establishing a research facility truly was a smart move.

He was only responsible for inventing the core technology. As for the testing and improving, he would leave it to the research facility.

"Is this really Central State City?"

"It's much more livelier compared to twenty years ago!"

Boss Yu and his brothers set foot on the ground and walked onto the Central State City's road. This urban area gave them a strange feeling, but also a tear inducing feeling filled their hearts.

Twenty years!

An entire twenty years!

Isn't a human's life only a few twenty years periods?

This was their first time openly walking on a Central State City's road.

Now that everything was over, they could finally begin their new lives.

The five of them stood before Miracle Commerce's headquarters which was like a little castle and they were once again shocked by Miracle Commerce's wealth. This kind of reinforced and stylish headquarters was not something normal people could have.

There was a white clothed beautiful girl that came out to greet them.

"Young miss, young miss!" Chu Tian walked into Miracle Commerce's headquarters and shamelessly and impatiently began to call out, "It's been a few days, I've missed you.....Yi, you seem like you've become fatter!"

Meng Qingwu spat at him, "I'm busy all day with the company and the research institute, how could I become fatter? You're just speaking nonsense!"

"Really!" Chu Tian pretended to look over the young miss, looking over her butt several times, "You're really fatter.....Aiyo!"

Meng Yingying's little hands pinched Chu Tian and dragged him away before charging at the young miss, "Elder sister, Yingying has missed you!"

"Was the trip to Thunder State alright?"

"The people of Thunder State are so pitiful. I really don't know what we would do if we ever met this disaster!"

"Silly girl, stop saying these inauspicious words." Meng Qingwu knew that her little sister suffered a large shock, but she was also very curious, "Why are you back so quickly?"

"Hai, it isn't that big of a deal anyway. If I, Sir Chu Tian personally head out, wouldn't it be easily solved?"

How could Meng Qingwu not know this fellow's personality?

Could the words he said be believed? But it was a good thing it was all solved and there was no need to worry anymore.

Meng Qingwu wanted to ask for more details, but she suddenly found the five men wearing strange clothing, "These five people are....."

"Are you talking about them?" Chu Tian said in a uncaring manner, "They come from the countryside and haven't seen the world, but they have many brothers under them and are prepared to eat the food Miracle Commerce and the young miss gives them."

The five brothers felt awkward.

What was called being from the countryside!

Who was this woman! Wasn't Chu Tian the head of Miracle Commerce? Why was he calling her young miss? This was really strange!

"What are you gawking for?" Chu Tian pointed at Meng Qingwu, "This beauty is the vice chairman and the person truly in charge of Miracle Commerce. The Giant Shark Gang's future will all depend on this person."

Boss Yu's group was shocked and quickly cupped their hands to Meng Qingwu, "We greet the vice chairman!"

Chu Tian added, "Not only is the young miss' chest big, but she is also very smart. Working with her is no mistake!"

"If you keep talking like this, then I'll really become angry!" Meng Qingwu cheeks began to burn, "Don't listen to his nonsense. This one is Meng Qingwu, I hope these seniors will take care of me."

Chu Tian gave an mocking smile, "Boss Yu, didn't you bring a rubbing of the cultivation techniques? Take it out for the young miss to have a look and you'll know that I wasn't lying. The young miss is a true scholar."

Boss Yu revealed a look of joy and looked over at Old Second Yu.

Old Second Yu placed a shark skin bag on the ground and took out a thick scroll from inside before respectfully placing it in front of Meng Qingwu, "We ask the vice chairman to have a look for us. If you can decipher its contents, then the Giant Shark Gang will be filled with gratitude!"

Meng Qingwu could feel that these people were not ordinary. Not to mention that Chu Tian had brought them in, so how could they be ordinary? She immediately opened the scroll and looked over it. She frowned and her head felt a slight pain before she could suddenly understand the strange writing on the scroll. Meng Qingwu directly read aloud the sea race's language.

"Ah?!"

"She really can decipher it!"

"The vice chairman is a true genius!"

The five brothers were filled with excitement.

"What nonsense, she is the vice chairman of Miracle Commerce after all!" Chu Tian waved his hand at the five of them, "Leave the cultivation techniques here, we'll return them when they have been deciphered. You can all leave for now. Nangong, Yingying, let them have a look at Miracle Commerce's inventions. Also let them have a look at the Yun Sect research facility and Qilin Hall."

"Alright!"

Meng Yingying and Nangong Yun led the five Yu brothers out.

The five brothers also wanted to walk around and personally witness the abilities of Miracle Commerce. After all, they would be depending on Miracle Commerce for a long time, so being able to see the potential that Miracle Commerce had would allow their hearts to settle.

Meng Qingwu angrily stared at him, "With your skills, you can decipher these cultivation techniques. However, you purposefully gave them to me so they would think that I was important."

"Ha, ha, the young miss makes it sound too serious. I just dislike trouble." Chu Tian said this and then his smile disappeared, "There was no trouble, right?"

"Central State City has been peaceful and there were no signs of the three families making a move." Meng Qingwu said this and her brows knit together, "But the more it's like this, the more worried I am. It was a great chance, but the three clans restrained themselves which means that they already have a plan in motion and it should be something big. Other than that, I have also received some clues."

"What is it?"

"The elites of the three clans have all been called back. Although it was done in secret, I still discovered it. Them calling back their strongest forces means that a storm is approaching. They didn't make a move this time, but once they do, it will be a war of life and death!"

The three families did not have the energy and patience to test Miracle Commerce's bottom line.

They would pin their hopes on this final chance.

"It's been hard on the young miss." Chu Tian revealed a faint smile and did not care about this, "They are secretly gathering their strength, but we are also becoming stronger, improving ourselves at a rate that far surpasses their imaginations. Not to mention that just those five country bumpkins are enough to take on the three families. It is best if they don't make a move, but if they do, we will take them out in one fell swoop!"

One fell swoop?

Such big words!

Miracle Commerce was still developing. It was already the fifth power and because of the Yun Sect and Chu Tian's fame, they could even fight any of the three families alone. But if the three families worked together, Miracle Commerce did not have the confidence to beat them.

Chu Tian had gone to Thunder State and came back with such big words.......Those five strange people were not simple!

Chu Tian asked, "How is Miracle Commerce's development?"

Meng Qingwu was familiar with this and knew every aspect of Miracle Commerce.

Everything was proceeding very smoothly.

Miracle Commerce had contracted twenty three dimensional production factories from different families and had greatly increased their production capabilities. The South Sky production line had been slowly changed to only manufacturing batteries.

Central State had turned into the company's main production base.

"Our products are currently experiencing explosive growth. Ten canned food factories have already be constructed and we are currently buying mass amounts of demon beast meat and ingredients. We will also be opening five restaurants throughout the city!" Meng Qingwu was visibly excited because their company's development speed had been too fast, "Central State City is quickly becoming Miracle Commerce's main production base. The newly established Yun Sect is smoothly progressing with their research, even creating the basics of the channel changing technology."

Meng Qingwu had also lead some new researches.

Such as improving the radios and phonographs.

Meng Qingwu had invested large amounts of money to create a design department in the Yun Sect. She used high salaries to recruit talents in mechanical techniques and allowed Tong Xiaoyu to become the manager.

The design department had not even been finished, but in a few days, the research to making smaller phonographs and radios had been finished. Meng Qingwu wanted to continue improving these products until they could become a single product!

She had already thought of the new product's name - Magnetic Recording Machine!

She wanted to make a portable broadcast device!

The radios and phonographs were both fine and they did not have a complex design. It was made from an outer cover, a magnetic sound stone board, a source energy battery, and several source energy arrays that combined them together. Because the design was so simple, it was easy to combine the two together. Meng Qingwu believed it would be finished in a few days.

Chu Tian nodded, "Not bad!"

"There is only a single matter that hasn't gone smoothly!" Meng Qingwu said with a frown, "Even now, we still haven't purchased all the materials for the Saint Grade Pill!"

"What happened?"

"It must be the interference of the three great clans. They have more distribution channels and we can't buy the materials on the market, so we can only put aside the Saint Grade Pill refinement for now."

"These fellows really do not want me to breakthrough!"

At this moment, Yun Yao quickly ran in, "Did you hear the news?"

Chu Tian was confused, "What is it?"

Yun Yao said with a serious expression, "The Chu Family knows that you have returned to Central State City and have issued an official challenge to you!"

"Oh? When is it!"

"Tomorrow at noon!"

Meng Qingwu's eyes flashed with a look of anger.

Does the Chu Family not care about their reputation at all?

On one hand they said that Chu Xinghe was challenging Chu Tian, but they would give Chu Tian time to breakthrough. On the other hand, they secretly interfered, not letting Chu Tian refine the Saint Grade Pill.

Now there was the worry that Chu Xinghe had recovered. Chu Tian had just returned to Central State City and the Divine Wind Marquis was not present, so they were directly challenging Chu Tian?

"What should come will come. Help me send a message." Chu Tian said with a serious expression, "I, Chu Tian will accept their challenge!"
