Chapter 996: It is normal to have a fight on the Chinese Valentine's Day, right?
"As for materials, I remember there seemed to be quite a lot of Qinglian Stone in the warehouse of Xuanwu City."
Yue Yao recalled carefully. For the person in charge of Runxia District, the information on prices, specialties, labor costs and other information of various cities in the [Nanli Daoyu] were data that had long been memorized in his mind and would never be forgotten.
Although she still didn't know what Mo Cheng wanted to do, she still found relevant items in her mind in response to Mo Cheng's questions.
Qinglian Stone is a product mined from the [Jiefeng Mountain] ore vein. It is a by-product of minerals and has a high output.
Because its solidity after forming is determined by the amount of spiritual energy infused during refining, it is often used as a building material for city walls. At the same time, when the amount accumulates to a certain level, it will also create a certain resistance to Taoism.
This thing is said to be a natural treasure, and it does have the characteristics that only natural treasures have, but it requires a huge amount of spiritual energy to be infused into it when refining it.
In terms of quantity, there is indeed a lot of Qinglian stone ore mined, and with a little refining it can become excellent wall bricks.
"If necessary, I can allocate a batch of raw Qinglian Stone ore. What do you want it for?"
Mo Cheng shrugged, with no intention of hiding it, "I have an idea that needs to be tried. If it succeeds, it can produce some good things. If it succeeds, I will give you a copy."
Yue Yao glanced at Mo Cheng and asked, "Is this just for me, or are there some for the other girls as well?"
The beauty was smiling, but Mo Cheng felt a chill for no reason.
Something is wrong. Twelve points out of ten are wrong.
Did I say something wrong?
Even Mo Cheng now felt that if his next answer was not good, he would step on a minefield.
One thing he was sure of was that girls had a lot of minefields.
Mo Cheng's expression remained unchanged, but in an instant his brain's operating power had reached an astonishing level, his thoughts accelerated and his mind raced like lightning.
He had heard this before, but it was somewhere else, when he was reading "Dream of the Red Chamber" on Earth.
Well, it was Lin Daiyu who said this, and the context at that time was that after Zhou Rui's wife sent Granny Liu away, she came to Aunt Xue to report to Mrs. Wang. It happened that Aunt Xue had just received a set of twelve palace flowers, and asked Zhou Rui's wife to deliver them to the girls in the mansion.
It was specified that each of the three girls in the Jia family would receive a pair, two were given to Lin Daiyu, and the rest were given to Feng Ji, which was considered decent, thoughtful and proper.
Zhou Ruijia set out from Lixiangyuan. Since it was on the way, he did not care about other things. He first gave four to Fengjie, and then gave the last two to Lin Daiyu.
This made Daiyu unhappy and she asked, "Is it just for me, or are there some for the other girls as well?"
Knowing that the palace flowers were given to her only after others had picked them, Lin Daiyu said, "I knew that if others didn't pick them, the leftovers wouldn't be given to me."
…
So what Yueyao meant was that if you give her a gift, it should be unique enough and not the same as other people's?
Mo Cheng secretly tried to figure out the thoughts of his daughter, whom he was completely unfamiliar with. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the truth. Yue Yao, as the head of Runxia District, was already very wealthy and had been given countless precious things.
If you give something that is commonly seen as a gift , not to mention that someone may have already given it to you before, giving the same thing again will indeed be considered as "picking up the leftovers".
After all, it is not a one-of-a-kind item, so it can be considered a mass-produced product, and mass-produced products are sold in stores...
In a sense, it is the leftovers.
At this moment, Mo Cheng immediately realized how he should answer, "Only a treasure that is unique in the world (I am the only one with the halo skill, so the multiple halo abilities are naturally unique) can be worthy of Yueyao, so naturally I will only give it to Yueyao (each of the multiple haloes is different, one for each person)."
At the same time, Mo Cheng thought that if he was really lucky enough to create a container that could hold all the halo abilities, then at worst he could give him a [Protection Contract] as a gift.
That way you can share your own strength, and the style is unique, so it is definitely one of a kind.
It is not clear whether the [Protection Contract] can work in this world.
As he spoke, Mo Cheng changed the subject, "So where is Xuanwu City?"
Yue Yao listened to Mo Cheng's words, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, but with Mo Cheng's last words, her smile quickly retreated, "Your purpose is too obvious. If you can hide it a little, I will be very happy."
Then Yue Yao covered her forehead in pain. "Although I really want to give you a warrant and let you go there by yourself, Xuanwu City is not under our control now, and there are still some troubles there."
Hearing the word "trouble", Mo Cheng asked instinctively without thinking, "Where to go? How many to kill?"
Mo Cheng is not good at solving problems, but he is good at solving people who cause trouble, especially when he needs the Qinglian Stone from the Xuanwu City warehouse.
The head of Runxia District shook his head. "It's not the army of the Ten Directions Demon Bandits, nor are they the bandits and lone rangers who want to take advantage of the situation. It's another kind of trouble."
After Yue Yao's explanation, Mo Cheng roughly understood what the so-called "trouble" was.
The [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] occupied many cities in the [Nanli Dao Realm], but they did not carry out a massacre, or the situation at the time did not require them to do so. In the following time, they were all killed by Mo Cheng before they could react.
At the same time, the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] have a large batch of supplies, which were looted from various cities.
It was called plunder, but a considerable portion of it was voluntarily provided by wealthy businessmen in the city in exchange for certain things and privileges.
Some people took the opportunity to annex land, while others took advantage of it to seize other people's ancestral homes.
There are also people who, after all the officials in the city were killed in battle or imprisoned in dungeons, cooperated with the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] and became managers.
After the Ten-Direction Demon Bandits were eliminated, the resulting disputes were sent to Yue Yao's desk and became one of the tasks she had to deal with.
Whether the annexed land needs to be re-planned and redistributed, how those who have already obtained the title deeds can get their ancestral homes back, and even how those who have become managers should clean up, these are extremely troublesome and difficult issues.
Anyway, after hearing just a few of the questions, Mo Cheng wisely kept silent.
This is not his area.
If he really needs to give any advice, it would be "kill".
Kill all the people involved and there won't be any problems.
But it was obvious that even Mo Cheng knew that this was an approach that only a fool would adopt.
At the same time, he prayed secretly in his heart, praying that Yue Yao would not suddenly have an idea and try to let him complete these problems.
"By the way, if you need the Qinglian Stone..."
Yue Yao took out the file and said, "I just happened to have to go out for something very troublesome. Although Yueting is relatively safe, I can't allocate too many troops for protection."
"so?"
"So I had no choice but to ask the talented Qilin to accompany me on this journey."
