"General Chen, I've long heard of your great name!"
When Zhao Zixin was a student in the Qin Military University, he served in the Yulin Army and met Chen Xin at that time.
Of course, at that time, both of them were unknown and were waiting for their own opportunities.
After that, Chen Xin was ordered by the emperor to go to the East China Sea to disrupt the Daluo Empire and open up Daqin's trade in the East China Sea.
As a result, Chen Xin did a very good job in the East China Sea. Not only did he bring a lot of trouble to the Daluo Empire, but he also caused the Daluo Empire to suffer huge losses, so that the Daluo Empire no longer had any energy to cause trouble for Daqin.
Combined with other actions taken by His Majesty the Emperor, it was equivalent to Chen Xin alone, with tens of thousands of troops that were not regular troops, blocking most of the power of the Daluo Empire.
It's a bit unbelievable to talk about such things.
But Chen Xin actually achieved this alone.
As for the so-called pirate empire, it was also a legend in their Great Qin Empire, and even their emperor acknowledged it.
"Haha, you're not bad either. With only a hundred people, you've created such a big stir in this southern continent. His Majesty the Emperor even asked me to support you!" Chen Xin naturally respected this junior very much.
The current Qin Empire has no shortage of talented people, but these talented people lack opportunities.
Once they have the opportunity to display their talents, these talents of the Qin Empire will surely soar to success.
So was Chen Xin, and so was Zhao Zixin.
Zhao Zixin said, "General Chen, you are too polite. If I can really bring peace to this continent, you will also have half the credit."
"Ah... I haven't done anything, and you're already flattering me. How embarrassing! Tens of thousands of my brothers are actually just here to watch the show! We're all pirates, with no fighting power. Our role is to bring you some urgently needed supplies, and also to send back any excess supplies here. It's a special kind of trade, right? This time, I don't know exactly what you need, so I brought you over a hundred ships' worth of food!"
Chen Xin pointed behind him.
This time they brought more than a hundred cargo ships, all of which were of super large capacity.
Only the shipbuilding technology of the Qin Empire could build such a large cargo ship.
The Southern Continent was once a very powerful and prosperous country. The land here is fertile and the climate is very suitable. Therefore, under normal circumstances, this place should not be short of food.
But the situation here is very special now. The great country here has disappeared and it has become a mess.
There is fertile land and endless resources here, but people die of starvation every day.
When people are hungry, they can easily become extremely crazy, and a large number of thieves and bandits will appear. In addition, the organization of the gods is making trouble behind the scenes, so this continent is even more chaotic.
Although Zhang Zixin and his men saved a lot of people, the number of people they are protecting now is only a few million.
Even though this continent has suffered a devastating disaster, there are still at least hundreds of millions of people who are still struggling to survive.
Although the battle at Xiaohe Village made Zhang Zixin famous in the southern continent, it did not fundamentally shake the Organization of Gods.
Because behind the organization of gods is the kingdom of gods.
This is the most terrifying enemy of the Qin Empire now, and also the most special enemy.
If they want to truly stabilize this continent and pose a greater threat to the Organization of Gods and even the Kingdom of God, then they need people and soldiers. However, in this world, if they need people and soldiers, then they need food.
With their organizational skills and technology, they can certainly grow food on a large scale locally, but this will take several months.
During these months, their only way to replenish food was to hunt ferocious beasts.
However, Zhang Zixin did not have the same ability as their emperor, and it was impossible for him to feed so many people solely by relying on the meat of ferocious beasts, so in the end, food was still needed.
He came to the seaside to hunt some larger and more ferocious beasts in the sea. However, he met Chen Xin here and he brought him food.
"General Chen, thank you so much. What I lack most right now is food. You are really a timely help! But where do you get all this food?"
The territory occupied by Chen Xin is the numerous islands scattered across the vast East China Sea.
The environment on these islands is actually not very good. Most of the places are not suitable for farming and need to be transported from other places.
At the very beginning, the Pirate Empire needed the Qin Empire to transport large amounts of food.
Where do these guys get their food from now?
Could it have been transported from the Qin Empire to the East China Sea and then back again?
In this case, isn’t it a waste?
Chen Xin smiled and said, "Of course, this food wasn't shipped from the Great Qin Empire. My Great Qin doesn't do such inefficient things. I actually bought all this food from the Daluo Empire. The officials of the Daluo Empire were secretly selling food, and I control the Golden Sea, so I have money, so naturally I bought a little more. Our Pirate Empire can't eat it all, and we can even support our brothers!"
"Huh? Didn't I hear that the Daluo Empire is also short of food? Their Emperor is very anxious and is trying to find ways to buy food everywhere. Why are their officials still selling food everywhere? Are they crazy?"
Zhang Zixin didn't believe such a thing. After all, the Daluo Empire was also a powerful force. There was even a legend that they were backed by the Kingdom of God.
Such a country was once the biggest threat to the Qin Empire. How come it has become like this now?
Chen Xin laughed heartily. "Who knows? This isn't my business. I'm just following the Emperor's orders to provide you with support. You said you're short of food, but with such a large shipment like this, I can come hundreds more times."
Zhang Zixin was even happier now: "That's great! Actually, I don't need to do it hundreds of times. If you can send it to me a few dozen times, I can solve a big problem!"
Now he is starving because of the lack of food. The most important thing is that it is very difficult to feed the millions of people he has to support.
Now with the food support from Chen Xin, these things became relatively simple for him!
With these millions of people under his control, coupled with his current influence in the southern continent, he felt that he would have more and more people under his command and more and more resources under his control. As long as there were more people, things would be more convenient, and he felt that there would be no problem in feeding more and more people. Because this world here was so rich in various natural resources.
The only thing missing is someone to develop it!
