Chapter 46: Poor results, problems faced by the army

Winston looked at Xu Kuang and asked:

"Mr. Xu Kuang, who is this?"

Xu Kuang smiled and held Zhao Congfeng's shoulders and said:

"This is my humerus, Zhao Congfeng. To be honest, his strength is the best in our Mushroom Ridge. Mr. Winston, please don't look down on him."

Henry was a little confused, he didn't know what Xu Kuang's words meant.

"Top? The first can also be the top, and the tenth can also be the top. How many people are there like Zhao Congfeng?"

Henry wanted to know, but it was difficult to ask.

Zhao Congfeng greeted the two of them.

At this moment, Xin Jian cupped his fists at Xu Kuang and said:

"My Lord, this Hazy Moon Qinghui is truly a divine horse. I heard from Mr. Henry that you are riding an ordinary horse. You...".

Xu Kuang waved his hand and said with a smile:

"A BMW is given to a good general, a sword is given to a hero. Of course, the most suitable object must be given to the most suitable person."

Zhao Congfeng laughed, and he also persuaded Xin Jian:

"Brother Xin, please don't live up to your lord's good intentions. If you continue to refuse, you will seem a bit petty."

Xin Jian's face turned slightly red and he said to Zhao Congfeng:

"My little family is angry."

Xu Kuang then smiled and said:

"I had wanted to invite you two for a long time, but I was worried that you two would not sleep well, so I made my own decision and did not send someone to invite you. I hope you can forgive me."

Henry took the initiative to take over the conversation. He first praised Xu Kuang:

"Brother Xu is so polite. Winston and I walked all the way. Everything we saw was refreshing. We didn't expect that Brother Xu was so good at managing. I admire you."

Xu Kuang raised the corners of his mouth and responded calmly:

"Brother Henry, you're too polite. I'm not good at governance. I'm just good at understanding and employing people. I won't say that much. Are you interested in walking around with me?"

When Henry heard this, he immediately agreed. He had long wanted to know more about Mushroom Ridge. With Xu Kuang, the person who knew Mushroom Ridge best, as his companion, he would be able to visit more comfortably.

Winston touched Henry lightly with his shoulder, and Henry understood immediately.

"Brother Xu, there is one more thing. I want to live here for a long time, so I want to buy a house and a few shops. Is that okay?"

Xu Kuang smiled and said to Henry:

"Brother Henry, don't worry, I'll take care of everything for you."

Xu Kuang decided to choose the house for Henry farthest from Zhuge Duan.

Xu Kuang looked up and said with a smile:

"The weather is sunny today, just right for fun. Brother Henry, please come."

Everyone started wandering around Mushroom Ridge.

Having someone to guide you around is much better than wandering around aimlessly on your own. Xu Kuang patiently explained everything to Henry that he couldn't understand.

Even Winston was a little excited when he heard this.

Soon they came to a row of shops.

Some of the shops have already opened, with all kinds of gorgeous light signs hanging on them.

Henry looked at an unowned shop and asked:

"Is there an owner of this room? If not, I will buy it."

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"No need, I've already prepared it for Brother Henry, please look over there.".

In the largest shop at the corner, a group of people were putting up a sold sign.

"That's for Brother Henry.".

Henry smiled broadly and asked:

"How much?".

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"No money, I'll give it to you."

Henry looked at Xu Kuang in shock.

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"We pay attention to courtesy here. Since Brother Henry gave me a gift, I naturally want to return the gift. Please don't refuse."

Henry smiled and said:

"Then I'll accept it."

Henry looked at the shop and was already planning how to run it.

Henry asked:

“What do I need to do business here?”.

"You need to ask Hathaway about this. She is my Director of Industry and Commerce. She has the final say on everything."

Henry smiled and said:

"Brother Xu is really informal."

Xu Kuang smiled and said nothing more.

Everyone left the pavement area and wandered on the street again.

Suddenly, the sound of gunshots in the distance attracted everyone's attention.

Henry asked:

"This is?".

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"This is my troop training, are you interested in taking a look?".

Henry smiled and said:

"If you welcome me, I'd be very interested in taking a look."

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"In that case, let's go and have a look.".

A group of people followed Xu Kuang to the military camp.

Xu Kuang asked:

"Who is on duty today?".

Zhang Damiao hurriedly ran over. He gave Xu Kuang and Zhuge Duan a military salute, but the others didn't even look at them.

Xu Kuang asked:

"What subjects are you training today?".

Zhang Damiao said loudly:

"Sir, what we are training is live fire shooting.".

Xu Kuang nodded and said:

"continue.".

All the soldiers stood neatly. As Zhang Damiao called his name, a row of soldiers automatically walked out of the queue and lay down at the shooting position.

Henry and Winston looked at this scene with some curiosity, neither understanding what this was going to do.

The next moment, dozens of guns fired together. After ten consecutive shots, everyone stood up.

Xu Kuang took the telescope from Zhang Damiao and carefully looked at the bullet holes on the target paper.

"Big Meow, you're still not very good at practice, and your hitting rate is too low."

Zhang Damiao blushed, but then he started to sigh.

"No way, we still have too few professional instructors. If you can recruit a group of professional instructors, I can guarantee that the target accuracy will definitely go up."

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Zhang Da Miao:

"I understand. I will send people to you in the next few days, and you can prepare the organization."

Zhang Damiao laughed. He knew that Xu Kuang had a way, but he would not ask. An excellent subordinate would not go out of his way to inquire about the secrets of his superiors. That way his life would be longer.

Xu Kuang nodded. He looked at the target paper several times again and was so angry.

"Most people still can't do it. Give them an ultimatum. If they still waste bullets, go home and farm! Look there, look there again, ten rounds of bullets, none of them hit the target!"

When everyone heard that the top officer was angry, they were a little worried about their jobs.

Xu Kuang frowned and said to Henry:

"Sorry, I made you laugh.".

Henry looked at Xu Kuang with doubts on his face and asked:

"Brother Xu, haven't they done enough?".

Xu Kuang was stunned. The next moment, he subconsciously replied:

"Of course.".

This time it was Henry's turn to be stunned. He didn't know how to shoot, but by looking at the reaction of these soldiers and their obedience to discipline, he knew that these people were rare good soldiers.

But Xu Kuang was not satisfied yet.

Xu Kuang said to Zhang Damiao:

"By the way, these two, Xin Jian and Zhao Congfeng, will also be incorporated into the army in the future, but they have no official positions for the time being, so they are responsible for getting acquainted with you first. These two are strong men, don't underestimate them."

Xu Kuang turned around and walked away. He walked back halfway and said:

"By the way, you can solve the training problem internally. I will give you half a month. After half a month, I will see their obvious progress. Otherwise, everyone should go back to farming."
