"I want you to take over the shipyard of Tianjin Wei in this period of time. At the same time, recruit skilled shipbuilders.”
In the next hundreds of years, the ocean would determine the rise and fall of a country and a race. Whoever controlled the ocean would control the pulse of this era.
The Qing Kingdom's isolation from the outside world had caused China to have no access to the sea. Ever since then, it had also embarked on a path of no return.
Since Tang Feng had come to this era, he naturally would not watch helplessly as this nation embarked on that path.
No one knew better than him what was on the other side of the sea.
It was an uncountable amount of wealth, a land that was even more fertile than China.
After arriving at Tianjin City, Tang Feng was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he stayed for a short while.
That night, the entrance of Tang Feng's temporary residence was filled with carriages carrying boxes.
In just one night, Tang Feng had received more than three hundred thousand taels of silver.
Amongst them, Wei Kangyong alone had sent more than 100,000 taels of silver, and the Chief Eunuch Yang Jin had also sent 80,000 taels of silver.
As the transit station of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, the business here was developed, and the officials here were all extremely rich.
Tang Feng accepted all the silver.
Whether it was training the new army or expanding the shipyard, it would require a huge amount of silver. This 300,000 taels of silver was enough for Li Guangdi to use for a period of time.
Tang Feng understood that although Wei Kangyong had joined him, it would still take a lot of time to take control of the entire Tianjin City.
The Tianjin Guards were already in shambles. Most of the local officials and generals needed to be replaced. Only by replacing these blood-sucking bugs could the Tianjin Guards be reborn.
For now, the soldiers and officials recruited from the system were the most suitable choices. Perhaps their abilities were limited, but they had absolute loyalty.
In this chaotic era, nothing was more practical than loyalty.
It was only in the wee hours of the morning that the mansion finally quieted down.
After working for half the night, Tang Feng slept in Zhao Lingfei's room. Naturally, the two of them had to get intimate.
Ren Yingying, who was sleeping in the room next door, lost her sleepiness after hearing the sound.
In her mind, she could not help but think of those scenes. The more it was like this, the more she could not sleep. She tossed and turned, and her heart felt empty.
Ding dong.
"Use the Art of Essence Absorption to eliminate all the assassins of the Sun Moon Sect.”
Just as he was done with Zhao Lingfei, a system notification appeared in his mind.
Tang Feng sat up after hearing this notification. If he was not mistaken, there should be more than one assassin from the Sun Moon Sect who had broken into his mansion.
"Master, what's wrong?" Zhao Lingfei turned around with a lazy expression and asked gently.
"It's okay. You can sleep. I'll go out for a while.”Tang Feng bent down and kissed her red lips.
After putting on his clothes, Tang Feng went out of the house.
The waning moon hung in the sky. Under the weak moonlight, the courtyard was pitch-black.
In the darkness, more than ten black shadows moved quickly. One could vaguely see a few cold lights flashing.
At the same time, dozens of figures quietly appeared in the darkness and stood in a row behind Tang Feng.
Each of these foreigners from the East Chamber was carefully selected by Zhou Ding, and each of them was an expert.
At this moment, these barbarians were holding long sabers and standing behind Tang Feng without saying a word.
"Without my orders, no one is allowed to make a move.”Tang Feng said coldly.
These barbarians would not disobey Tang Feng's orders. Dozens of them did not move at all.
"Kill that dog Wei and save the young miss.”A deep male voice sounded in the darkness.
Tang Feng swept his gaze across the assassins of the Sun Moon Sect and snorted in disdain.
Then, he moved.
In the darkness, Tang Feng was like a ghost. His entire body turned into a black shadow, making it impossible for anyone to see his movements clearly.
In an instant, his hands grabbed the heads of the two assassins, and the Essence Absorption Technique began to circulate in his body.
The two assassins of the Sun Moon Sect were shaking and twisting violently, looking extremely strange.
In the blink of an eye, the two assassins were dead.
Tang Feng threw the two assassins 'corpses aside like a dead dog.
"Old Dog Wei, you deserve to die." The leader of the men in black roared and stabbed at Tang Feng's head with his sword.
Tang Feng didn't dodge. He slapped the back of his right hand lightly, and the sword that was coming at him was deflected.
Not good.
The leader of the men in black shouted in his heart and wanted to dodge.
However, Tang Feng was like a maggot that stuck to his body. No matter how hard he tried to dodge, he could not escape.
In the end, Tang Feng's five fingers still pinched his head.
Under the overbearing Essence Absorption Technique, the cultivation base of the Sun Moon Sect leader flowed out of his body and into Tang Feng's body.
Just this person's cultivation alone had increased Tang Feng's cultivation by more than five years.
The corpse lay on the ground, but the strange slaughter did not stop.
In just a few minutes, the dozen or so experts of the Sun Moon Sect were all dead. The courtyard fell silent again.
The dozens of East Chamber foreigners stood there and looked at Tang Feng with reverence.
Ding dong.
"After completing the random mission, all the external energy obtained by the host will become his own.”
Seeing this system notification, Tang Feng smiled noncommittally.
This reward was not bad.
Tonight, he had absorbed the cultivation of fifteen experts of the Sun Moon Sect with the Essence Absorption Technique. It was more than twenty years of cultivation. If he wanted to make it his own, it would probably take him a few years.
But now, after the system's reward appeared, all of this cultivation became his own without any side effects.
In addition to his original cultivation, his current cultivation had already reached sixty years. In this martial arts world, he could be considered a top-notch expert.
