Zhang Qidao, Chen Weiguo, and others stood up regardless of the occasion.

He walked eagerly to the chief's side, staring longingly at the ring in his hand.

That's three million spirit stones!

Its amazing effects have been personally experienced by many people before.

It is absolutely the most coveted treasure for all cultivators.

With it, leveling up will become as simple as eating and drinking.

China is definitely about to take off!

"Hehe, Chief, most of my Dragon Soul Guards are cultivators, so this quota won't be enough."

Chen Weiguo rubbed his hands together, staring at the chief with an excited expression and burning eyes.

"The situation of my Demon Extermination Pavilion is similar to that of the Dragon Soul Guard. The Grand Chief should treat them equally."

An elderly man quickly squeezed in, as if afraid that if he arrived late, there wouldn't be any left.

"And our military is currently accelerating the formation of special operations forces. We must get a share of these spirit stones."

Military leaders like Zhang Qidao also hurriedly spoke up, vying to demand it.

Who wouldn't want to get some of these good things for their troops?

This is a rare treasure that can directly enhance your strength.

Looking at the chaotic scene, Zhou Shouzhen couldn't help but feel helpless.

"Alright, alright, go back and sit down, and see what kind of mess you've made of?"

"We'll discuss how to allocate these resources when we get back. Don't embarrass yourself here now."

Everyone reluctantly returned to their seats, their faces filled with undisguised excitement.

After the scene quieted down, Chu Mo explained in detail how to use the spatial ring.

At this moment, Zhou Shouzhen asked nervously:

"Little Chu, how much jade do you need to exchange for these spirit stones?"

"It doesn't matter, the government can decide what to give." Chu Mo said casually.

Zhou Shouzhen hesitated for a moment, then asked uncertainly:

"As per your request, the country has already purchased approximately three million tons of high-quality jadeite raw materials, all of which have been pre-cut and are ready for direct processing."

"In addition, there are about three million pieces of mid-to-high-end finished jade jewelry. Do you think that's enough to exchange for them?"

At this point, Zhou Shouzhen added, slightly embarrassed:

"This was collected with great effort by the country. Some time ago, someone scourds up all the jade in the Jade Kingdom."

"This has led to a severe shortage of spot goods in the short term. If there is not enough, the government can provide more later."

"That's enough, Elder Zhou, these jades are more than enough." Chu Mo nodded hurriedly.

Although three million high-grade spirit stones can cultivate at least a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators, their value is terrifyingly unimaginable.

However, this batch of jadeite is worth hundreds of billions. As long as it is sold in the Kunlun Realm, earning 2 billion high-grade spirit stones is not a problem at all.

Its value in Chu Mo's hands was equally immense.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Shouzhen and the others felt a great sense of relief, their faces filled with joy and ease.

That's enough. Otherwise, no matter how good the spirit stones are, the country can't afford to use them.

This sum of hundreds of billions is almost equivalent to the entire year's military expenditure.

At this moment, Chu Mo added with a smile:

"We have enough jade to sell for a long time, so we can stop buying for now."

"Furthermore, these spirit stones don't need to be used sparingly. If everything goes smoothly, I will provide the country with another 500 million spirit stones in succession."

"What? Five hundred million??"

Everyone was startled, then stood up with great joy.

With this batch of spirit stones, the Dragon Kingdom will definitely be able to quickly create a terrifying army of cultivators, dominating the entire world.

The United States and the Western alliance are nothing but clay chickens and dogs in front of China.

But soon, the chief and Zhou Shouzhen and others had a wry smile on their faces.

Three million coins cost over a hundred billion, this five hundred million...

That would be close to 20 trillion?

It should be noted that the total military expenditure of China over the past two decades has not exceeded 20 trillion.

Five hundred million of these coins are simply unaffordable, unless we swallow our pride and ask Xiao Chu to lower the price, or to pay in installments.

Seeing the troubled expressions on everyone's faces, Chu Mo couldn't help but laugh:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the cost of these 500 million pieces has already been included in that batch of jadeite; the government doesn't need to spend any more money."

"What? I don't need to pay anymore?"

"This, this, it's really included? Xiao Chu, you're not kidding, are you?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, their eyes filled with ecstasy and excitement.

This surprise came too suddenly; they weren't quite prepared.

Even the dignified and composed top leader couldn't help but slam his fist on the table in excitement and burst into laughter:

"Good, good, this is wonderful! The rise of the Dragon Kingdom is just around the corner! Little Chu, you are truly a hero for the nation!"

The others were equally excited, their faces trembling slightly and their hands shaking.

This is of immense significance.

Everyone looked at Chu Mo with deep respect and anticipation.

This young man is the most precious treasure of the Dragon Kingdom!

The chief commander stood up decisively and solemnly addressed the crowd:

"I remember that Xiao Chu used to be an honorary instructor for the Dragon Soul Guard, right?"

"From this day forward, Chu Mo is hereby granted the title of Peerless National Hero and the rank of General. All his actions shall be subject to the control of local governments and the military."

Everyone was stunned by these words.

Everyone can understand why Chu Mo was awarded the rank of general; after all, given his contributions, receiving such honors is not excessive at all.

However, the peerless hero's actions are not subject to the control of local governments or the military.

That's terrifying!

This sentence, in particular, has not been subject to any restrictions.
