Qingmei went to the city and bought a copper lamp. After dark, she lit the copper lamp.
After a long sleepless night, Lu Cheng taught her the runes with the light on.
After studying runes for a while, Qingmei said: "I went to the city today and saw Jiong Sheng. Jiong Sheng has a shop that sells a variety of items, including bronze swords, iron swords, spears, armor, and spiritual valleys.
I bought Lingdou, Lingmai, and bronze lamps from him."
Lu Cheng said: "I haven't seen him for a few days. How is this old guy?"
"He lives a very prosperous life. He wears clothes that are half linen and half silk. He looks like a rich man."
"What strange things does he have in his store?"
"He also sells talismans and magic weapons, which are not too precious. An amulet sells for 50 jade coins, and a sharp iron sword sells for 100 jade coins. He also sells some low-level elixirs, mainly for warriors below the innate level.
.For the innate warriors, he only has one kind of elixir, called the 'Spiritual Bone Pill'. It is said that it is made by crushing the bones of several beasts that are one month old and combining them to refine them. The effect of the medicine is equivalent to that of a rising dragon.
One-tenth of Dan."
Lu Cheng thought of the Shenglong Pill. At first, he got three pills from Wu Sheng, gave one to Qingmei, and ate one himself. There was still one left, and he said: "You can only eat one Shenglong Pill a year.
What about Spirit Bone Pill? Are there any such restrictions?"
Qingmei said: "I asked Jiong Sheng and he said there is no limit."
"What's the harm?"
"There are some harmful effects. After eating it, the whole body feels hot, but it is much better than swallowing the Chilong inner elixir. Especially running the 'Shenglong Jue' can refine the heat."
"In that case, go and buy a few pills. Also buy some low-level elixirs, buy thirty pills of each kind, and note down the effects of each pill."
"Okay, but the Spiritual Bone Pill is not cheap. One pill costs 120 jade coins."
"I'll give you some more jade coins."
"Brother, no need, I still have it. I brought some snow leopard skin clothes to Li Ju a few days ago, and the jade coins she gave me haven't been used up yet."
When Lu Cheng left last time, he gave Qingmei twenty pieces of snow leopard skin clothes and a few cowhide coats, asking her to give them to Li Ju from time to time.
He didn't dare to take out the mink coat because it was too exquisite and luxurious.
As for the dragon skins, there is also the second batch of animal skins brought back because the quantity is quite large, including 30 sable skins and 70 snow leopard skins, which are still being tanned at the Suzhou Fur Craft Factory.
Lu Cheng said: "If you need jade coins, just tell me, I have many more."
"Brother, do you Lai Yi tribe rely on jade mines? How come you have so many jade coins?"
"I don't lack this stuff."
The next day, Qingmei brought back a batch of elixirs, mainly low-level elixirs suitable for ordinary warriors to swallow. There were seven or eight kinds in total, thirty pills each. As for the spirit bone pills, she only bought three.<
/p>
Lu Cheng swallowed one and felt that it was quite effective. His spiritual power was sufficient and filled his vertebrae, which was equivalent to thirty days of hard training.
He gave one green plum and collected the remaining one.
No matter how good the food is, you cannot eat it continuously. If you eat it after a few days, the effect will be better.
In less than 15 days, he finished drawing 300 amulets, and the sword in his mind grew to 9 inches long.
He would not be stupid enough to give so many talismans to Wu Luo at once. He planned to hand over a small amount every few days, one after another, and delay it for a few more days.
The production of the talisman paper did not stop. All steps were entrusted to Qingmei. 30% of the talisman paper was handed over and 60% was kept for Lu Cheng to continue drawing the talisman. The finished talisman was brought to the city by Qingmei and handed over to Li.
Exchange chrysanthemums for rare items, or give them to Jiong Sheng in exchange for spirit bone pills.
Lu Cheng felt more and more that Qingmei had become a rare assistant. Without her help, life would become boring.
On this day, the "Winter Solstice" solar term arrives.
This "World of Classics of Mountains and Seas" has twelve months in a year, 72 days in a month, two solar terms in each month, 24 solar terms in a year, and one solar term lasts 36 days.
On this day, Lu Cheng dumped all the medicinal solution in the stone trough, boiled snow and water to prepare a new medicinal solution. Then he cut a batch of animal skins and threw them in.
He gave Qingmei some advice.
That night, he rubbed his jade ring, recited the incantation silently, and returned to modern times.
Open your eyes, it's still midnight.
He habitually picked up the cell phone beside his bed and looked at the date, which was the early morning of February 18th.
Then, he clicked on the portal website to learn about the latest news, so that he could integrate into the world and not feel alienated.
One of the news was released by the Meteorological Bureau, saying that this winter was warmer than previous years, extending eastward from Qinghai and Sichuan to the coastal areas, forming a warm and humid weather belt 2,500 kilometers long and 1,000 kilometers wide.
Within the year, the temperature throughout the year has increased by 2-3 degrees, and the rainfall has increased by 500-800 mm.
There is a clear map in the news. This warm and humid zone is approximately rectangular. The northern boundary is drawn from jyg to Tianjin, and the southern boundary is drawn from Qamdo and Ya'an to Hangzhou. It includes the Loess Plateau and parts of Qinghai, Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, etc.
In desert areas, these places have smooth weather and lush vegetation, which can open up a lot of farmland. But for Sichuan, Hubei, and ah, this may not be a good thing, because the warm and humid zone covers part of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and summer floods will be higher than in previous years.
Serious.
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "This is because the four large tombs are constantly emitting white smoke. The white smoke forms runes in the air, changing the climate of the area and causing the spiritual energy to revive. However, this is not reflected in the news.
”
The second news said that there are more and more wild animals, wild boars are overflowing, wild foxes and wild wolves have also appeared. The previously safe mountain forests have become dangerous, and the mountain people dare not go into the mountains alone to pick mushrooms and wild fruits.
Therefore, some people suggest amending the Wildlife Protection Law and lifting the ban on carrying hunting rifles. Due to the demands of the people, some places have organized militias to go into the mountains to hunt more ferocious beasts.
Regarding this news, Lu Cheng felt a little heavy. He was worried that the wild beasts would become more and more ferocious, and the scope of human settlement would become more and more limited. The previous conversion of farmland to forest would be forced to continue, because farmers cultivating in remote areas would face
Dangerous.

At the same time, as the climate changes, there are also some favorable places, such as the Loess Plateau and desert areas. The vegetation used to be very sparse. After the spiritual energy is revived, it becomes suitable for farming, and the crops grown can feed many people. p>
Take Xi'an for example. As early as the Qin and Han Dynasties, Xi'an was a good place with good weather.
The so-called eight rivers in Chang'an refer to the eight rivers of Wei, Jing, Feng, Lao, Jing, Pou, Chan, and Ba. The Western Han Dynasty writer Sima Xiangru wrote in the famous poem "Shanglin Fu" that "the eight rivers are swaying."
"Divided, opposite and different" describes the majestic beauty of Shanglin Garden in the Han Dynasty. Later, there was a description of "Eight Rivers Circling Chang'an". Among the eight rivers, the Wei River merges into the Yellow River, while the other seven rivers originally merged directly into each other.
Entering the Wei River. However, due to changes in times, rainfall has become less and less, and many rivers have turned into creeks, and some have even stopped flowing.
After the Qin and Han Dynasties, why did China's economic center of gravity move south? Ultimately, it was because of changes in rainfall. Nothing can be done without water.
The third piece of news is the change in the competition format of the "Kunlun Finals" and the introduction of some new competition events.
Originally, the main focus of Kunlun Jue was fighting. With the awakening of superpowers, fighting became more and more cruel. Blurred heads and bloody blows were common, and there were also cases of being killed on the spot. Therefore, it became the target of criticism.
This kind of fighting competition is a difficult challenge for the organizers. It can either become a performance and a fake fight; or it can be a real fight with real swords and guns, which will inevitably cause casualties and have an impact on national laws.
Therefore, the organizers have planned new competition events, such as "Stele Opener", "Bawang Tripod", and "Tinyun Zong".
The "monument opener" asks the contestants to crack stones with one palm. The same customized bluestone slabs, with thickness ranging from three inches to one foot. Whoever can crack open thicker stone slabs and who can crack open more stone slabs will be the winner of 2031.
"The Monument Opener"!
The "Overlord Cauldron" is a batch of copper cauldrons customized by the organizer, weighing from two hundred kilograms to three thousand kilograms. Whoever can lift the heavier copper cauldron will be the "Overlord" this year.
"Ladder to the Cloud" is a high jump on the spot, skipping directly over the crossbar without a run-up.
At the same time, Kunlun Jue still launched a fighting competition, but the protective measures were strengthened. Not only were the gloves thickened, but barefoot was not enough. "Toe gloves" were worn on the feet! Leather armor was also worn on the body to protect important parts.
Organs! This way you won’t be beaten to death on the spot.
After reading the news, Lu Cheng checked his email again.
He received an invitation letter from Kunlun Jue's board secretary Zhang Xian, asking him to attend the shareholders' meeting in early March. It is expected that there will be adjustments to the board members.
He also received a message from Lin Quan, saying that he had contacted idg Capital, Zhen Fund, Northern Light Venture Capital, Morningside Capital, Hongtai Fund, etc. Among them, Zhen Fund and Morningside Capital were willing to sell their shares at a premium.
ZhenFund requires a premium of 30%, while Morningside Capital requires a premium of 50%!
Lin Quan analyzed in the email that even if the premium is 50%, it is still better than buying it directly from the secondary market. Because according to his judgment, due to the increasing popularity of martial arts, coupled with Lu Cheng and Wanyi Capital,
In the rush to raise funds, it is normal for the share price of "Kunlun Jue" to double or triple.
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "In this case, why do Zhen Fund and Morningside Capital sell their stocks? Are they fools?"
Then I thought: "I'm not stupid. The capital market is constantly changing. Since I made the announcement, Kunlun Jue's increase has already been 50%. If the premium is 30%, that's an 80% increase. This profit is still very impressive."
The stock price has no fixed number and rises and falls like the tide. If I change my mind, cannot compete and give up control, the stock price will fall sharply..."
Lu Cheng looked at his bank account and found that the balance was another 12 billion. The bulk of it came from Hanhai Auction House, then Minghu Jade Factory, Lingmai Company, Yarrow Company, furniture store, spice factory and Xian.
Funds transferred from the church.
He transferred 10 billion to Lin Quan and agreed to take over the shares of Zhen Fund and Morningside Capital.
