In the soft and brilliant light, Zhang Hao had just stepped out of the Hai Zhou Hotel when he saw a group of people walking towards him, feeling somewhat surprised.
The elderly man at the center of the group was someone Zhang Hao recognized; he was Mr. Zhao Changgeng from the Tongxin Pharmacy. There was also a familiar acquaintance, Mr. Feng, who had just met him. He was among the group, seemingly of low status, acting more like a subordinate.
Seeing Zhang Hao, Mr. Feng's eyes flashed with anger and fear. He turned his head, not wanting to see Zhang Hao's victorious look. What made Mr. Feng even more incredulous was that he saw Mr. Zhao Changgeng walking towards Zhang Hao with a look of pleasant surprise, extending his hand.
What's going on? Could this insurance salesman have another identity?
Mr. Feng was dazed, hanging his head, afraid that Zhang Hao would notice him. The reason he could have a good position in Qin Zhou and have spare money to spend on women was that he was a distant relative of the Zhao family from the Tongxin Pharmacy. Relying on the Zhao family, he had opened a health supplement factory, which allowed him to live a decent life.
Seeing how familiar that young man was with Mr. Zhao Changgeng, he was truly afraid that this guy would reveal something.
To his great relief, Zhang Hao seemed not to notice him at all. After chatting with Mr. Zhao Changgeng for a while, he left directly with the two beauties.
Zhang Hao wasn't particularly magnanimous. The reason he ignored Mr. Feng was partly because he didn't feel very familiar with Mr. Zhao Changgeng. The other reason was that Su Linlang had mentioned that although Mr. Feng was somewhat arrogant, he had no other bad records besides spending money on women.
There were too many people like him. Zhang Hao believed that after seeing his familiarity with Mr. Zhao Changgeng, this guy wouldn't dare to have any bad intentions.
So, Zhang Hao completely ignored him.
"Brother Da Peng, you know Mr. Zhao? He is a famous doctor in our Qin Zhou, enjoying a special allowance from the State Council. Moreover, the Tongxin Pharmacy has expanded its business overseas, making a significant impact," Su Linlang asked curiously as they got into the car.
"Yes, I met him by chance. I sold him some wild herbs recently," Zhang Hao explained briefly, not saying much. He didn't care about Mr. Zhao Changgeng's status, as his focus was on other worlds.
Besides, in the future, Zhang Hao might recruit even more famous doctors, like Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing. Naturally, he wasn't very interested in the famous doctors of this world.
"Wild herbs? From the look on that old man's face, did you sell him a tiger penis?" Su Linlang, leaning against Shu Yun, didn't speak for a while, then said something that left Zhang Hao speechless. It seemed she was drunk. She was fine when they left, but once in the car, she became like this.
They arrived at Qin Zhou University and, following Shu Yun's directions, drove directly to their dormitory building.
At this time, the university was still bustling, and the area in front of the girls' dormitory was even more lively, with couples saying goodbye or boys waiting for girls.
Zhang Hao parked the car by the roadside, helped the two out. Shu Yun was still in good condition, but Su Linlang was a bit weak. Zhang Hao almost carried her out, and the soft, yet elastic, body leaning against him made his heart race.
After getting out of the car and feeling the breeze, Su Linlang seemed to sober up a bit. She didn't let go of Zhang Hao, her face flushed, and she looked at him with drowsy eyes.
"Brother Da Peng, you did well today. Although I can't offer myself to you, I can reward you," she said, then tiptoed and kissed Zhang Hao's cheek loudly. This made Shu Yun's expression quite strange and the surrounding male students envious and jealous.
"Alright, alright, Linlang, you've had too much to drink," Shu Yun quickly supported Su Linlang, saying to Zhang Hao apologetically, "This guy really can't handle alcohol. He gets drunk and causes trouble. Thank you so much, Brother Da Peng."
After agreeing to contact each other later, Zhang Hao watched Shu Yun support Su Linlang into the dormitory building. After waiting for a while, his phone rang, but he didn't answer. It was Shu Yun reporting that she had arrived. Zhang Hao got back into the car and left.
On the road, Zhang Hao felt a bit restless and opened the car window to let the wind in, but the heat in his chest didn't subside. Zhang Hao knew why.
Su Linlang's body and her actions, especially the beautiful view he inadvertently saw through her collar, had stirred his imagination.
In the past, Zhang Hao wasn't unfamiliar with women. He had girlfriends in high school and college and had tasted the pleasures of the flesh. However, before he was expelled, his college girlfriend had already broken up with him. After being expelled, he had no heart for such things.
But today, for some reason, Zhang Hao felt an intense desire.
Should he go to a hotel to find a woman? This thought crossed his mind, but he was worried about the cleanliness of the women. Should he follow the example of rich people and go to an art school in a luxury car to seduce girls? It was too late for that now. Or should he go to a bar to find a lonely woman?
These thoughts made Zhang Hao even more restless. He decided to stop the car, light a cigarette, and think.
Zhang Hao mocked himself, thinking he was just affected by the alcohol.
To say that Zhang Hao didn't have women around him was not true, of course, not referring to Su Linlang and Shu Yun, but to the women in the Three Kingdoms world.
Apart from Zhang Hao's two young maids, who were at his disposal, their loyalty was to him. Whatever he did to them was considered normal in that era.
However, Zhang Hao's views were somewhat different from those of the people of that time. He found it hard to act. Xiao Zhu and Xiao Cha, if placed in the modern world, would be absolute beauties, and they were more obedient than modern women.
Zhang Hao's main concern was responsibility. His thoughts and the views of that era were such that if he took them, he would have to take responsibility for their future. This was why he had never acted.
After smoking two cigarettes, he wasn't sure if it was the alcohol or a sudden realization.
In any case, Zhang Hao decided he couldn't miss out on the two young maids. What else could he do? Marry them off in the future? He was reluctant, as they had been together for a few months, and the two maids had served him in every way, naturally developing some affection.
If he didn't marry them off, he would still have to take responsibility. So, Zhang Hao decided he shouldn't be so sentimental. As for whether he could make them happy, the views of that era and the present were different. Being well-fed, well-clothed, and having a place to live was already a form of happiness.
With the time portal, Zhang Hao was destined to be different from others. Why should he be so concerned about responsibility and morality?
Having made his decision, Zhang Hao no longer hesitated. Finding a woman in the modern world might still have various concerns, such as diseases or other issues, but in the Three Kingdoms world, he didn't need to worry about these things.
At this moment, a thought crossed his mind, and he remembered the beautiful view he had seen on Su Linlang's body. He wondered about other possibilities. For Su Linlang, having her phone stolen wasn't a big issue, as her contacts and other data should have backups.
So, why was she so anxious at that time?
Could it be that her phone contained some photos that she didn't want others to see? Zhang Hao thought, somewhat lecherously.
He drove home and called the deputy factory manager of the craft factory, telling him that he had transferred three million to the factory's account and asking him to buy grain as soon as possible. He also inquired about the progress of the ancient cannon replica. Upon learning that there was some progress, he immediately instructed the factory to start production and stockpile.
Although Zhang Hao couldn't directly bring his army into the automatic rifle era, even the musket era was problematic. However, creating cannons was feasible. Whether for sieges or mounted on warships, the effects would be extraordinary.
The gunpowder research in the Three Kingdoms world had already succeeded, and with the manufacturing capabilities of the modern world, the development speed could be significantly accelerated.
When Zhang Hao rose up, these powerful weapons would surely give the enemy a big surprise.
After resolving these matters, Zhang Hao returned to the Three Kingdoms world.
This man, affected by the alcohol, didn't do anything else. He first called Xiao Zhu and Xiao Cha to his room. After a brief moment of silence following Xiao Zhu's exclamation, the room was filled with sounds that stirred the imagination, making the other maids outside look strange.
The next day, Zhang Hao went out to attend to his official duties, looking refreshed. Xiao Zhu and Xiao Cha, on the other hand, woke up much later. The other maids noticed that their two superiors seemed to have some difficulty walking, but their faces were radiant, and their eyes shone with a new hope.
