Chapter two hundred and sixty-four, the president is invited
"Brother Fourth, walk slowly." After Li Xiu left the martial arts arena, he was stopped by Master Eight.
"Is something wrong?" Li Xiu stopped and looked at Master Ba and asked.
"The president wants to see you." Ba Ye said with a smile.
"Is it a blessing or a curse?" Li Xiu asked with a frown.
Since entering the Immortal Heaven, he has not seen the president even once.
After all, he is also the president, but he has never even seen the president in person. If he told him, others might not believe him.
"Whether it's a blessing or a curse depends on what you say and do." Master Ba seemed to dare not say more, and just blinked at Li Xiu.
Li Xiu asked Chang Chongshan to take the magic costume master back first, and he followed the Eighth Master to the City Lord's Mansion.
The Eighth Master was unwilling to reveal so much, so Li Xiu didn't ask any more questions. The two of them arrived at the City Lord's Mansion one after another. The Eighth Master took the jade token with him, and the guards of the City Lord's Mansion let him go directly.
When he arrived at the courtyard where the president lived, Ba Ye stopped and said to Li Xiu: "Fourth brother, the president wants to see you alone. It's not convenient for me to go in with you. Be careful what you say when you meet the president. Sincerity is the medicine to relieve worries. Don't
To deceive."
"I know." Li Xiu nodded and walked into the courtyard.
Although the pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard are not as big as the garden where Li Qingyin lives, they are still more exquisite.
From a distance, I saw an old man feeding fish in a pavilion. Outside the pavilion was a fish pond. The fish roes were not big, and there were some small goldfish in it, not common carp.
Only the old man's back can be seen from here, but his appearance cannot be seen. However, there is only one old man in the courtyard, so he must be the president.
For some reason, Li Xiu felt that the president's back seemed a bit familiar.
"I'm not here to make you stand. Why are you standing there? Why don't you come over quickly?" The old man's voice came from inside the pavilion.
"This voice..." Li Xiu was slightly startled. This voice was very familiar to him, and now he was sure that he did recognize this old man.
Li Xiu quickened his pace and walked into the pavilion. The old man threw all the fish food in his hands into the pond, patted the residue on his hands, turned his head and looked at Li Xiu, with a smile on his face.
"It's you...are you the president of Changshengtian?" Li Xiu saw the old man's face clearly, and it turned out that he was the same person as he thought. But even so, it was still hard to imagine that he was really the president of Changshengtian.
"Why, can't I be the president of Changshengtian?" the old man said with a smile.
"Of course, it's just that I didn't expect you to be the president. Who would have thought that the Lord of Hongsha City is actually the president of Changshengtian." Li Xiu said.
The president glanced at him and said indifferently: "It's not that you didn't expect it, you just didn't dare to say it. Okay, don't show off your acting skills with me here. I didn't come here to see you perform."
"President, if you have anything to do, just ask." Li Xiu said respectfully.
He was able to join Changshengtian because it was the president who summoned him. Before, Li Xiu was wondering why he became the president when he came, but now he understands.
"What do you think of the Li family?" The president sat down in front of the stone table in the pavilion.
Li Xiu walked over and picked up the teapot, poured tea for the president, and then said after putting down the teapot: "You are arrogant and domineering. Apart from you, the president, I am afraid that the Li family does not take anyone else seriously in this immortal world."
.”
"No matter how domineering the Li family is, how can they be as domineering as you? They robbed the warehouse of the General Affairs Department, defrauded many family members of their money, and beheaded his brother Li Changyin in front of Li Changyin on the martial arts field. When it comes to being arrogant and domineering, the Li family is not as good as you.
So outstanding." The president said while drinking tea.
"President, I am really unjust! If a peace-loving person like me doesn't really have no life left, how could I offend them and cause myself so much trouble? This is of little benefit to me.
None." Li Xiu started to sell miserably: "President, you asked me to manage the technician team, and Vice President Bai doesn't give me resources and doesn't hand over the blood seal stone to me, then what use is I as the president? I can't take it.
It doesn’t matter, President, but I was recalled by you, President. If I was really manipulated by them like that, wouldn’t it be an embarrassment to you?”
"Okay, don't be miserable. Among the seven groups in Changshengtian, you have the most resources and the most benefits. What else do you have to complain about?" the president said calmly.
"It's all thanks to you, President." Li Xiu refilled the cup of tea for the President.
"In the final analysis, the Li family is my blood relative. You should not treat the Li family how you should treat them." The president looked at Li Xiu coldly and said.
"Thousands of mistakes are all my fault. If the president wants to punish me, I will bear the responsibility alone." Li Xiu said.
"You don't need to be so secretive in your words. You want to say that all the things you did were all my calculations, so you took the blame, right?" the president snorted coldly.
"I don't dare to think that." Li Xiu said.
"Just don't dare?" the president asked, staring at him.
"Okay, I do think so." Li Xiu spread his hands and said: "You summoned me to Changshengtian at this time and asked me to take over the technician team. Didn't you obviously want me to take those resources away from you?
Take it back from Bai Wanli and the Li family, that's what I did."
"You're quite honest." The president's eyes became much softer, he put down the teacup and said, "You are so smart, then tell me why I want you to take back those resources?"
"Is the Li family greedy enough even for your share? The money you have on hand is not enough to spend? I understand this very well. Since I became a trialist, I have never saved any money, and no amount of money is enough.
Flower." Li Xiu had a sympathetic expression on his face.
The president laughed angrily at him: "Do you think I am you? Do you really think I have a share in those resources?"
"Of course not. If there were, even if the Li family dared to reach out, Bai Wanli wouldn't have the courage to scrape a layer of it." Li Xiu said, "President, you asked me to take back those resources because you want to develop vigorously.
Research on magic equipment?"
"You have some cleverness," the president said with a smile.
"Thank you very much, President, for the compliment. I don't think I deserve it." Li Xiu said modestly.
But the president's face suddenly turned cold, he pressed the tea cup heavily on the table, stared at Li Xiu and said coldly: "Since you know everything, why are you still embezzling the institute's resources? You really think I want to use them."
You, will kill you, right?"
"President, calm down, I can't help it." Li Xiu was not afraid at all and said calmly.
"Just tell me, why can't you do anything?" The president still didn't look good at all.
"I have no background and no close friends. I have no one to rely on in this eternal world, and my own strength is so poor. If I don't have any resources to improve my strength, I will lose my life sooner or later. My death is a small matter, and I am afraid that I will delay you, President.
It’s a big deal, so it shouldn’t be.” Li Xiu indeed misappropriated some resources.
Although the resources he embezzled were far less than what the Li family took away, they were not small.
"Who said you are helpless in the Eternal Heaven, so who am I?" The president laughed, as if he was just pretending to be angry before and did not really blame Li Xiu.
"I didn't know that you were the president before. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have gone to so much trouble. I could have reported your name directly. I'm sure Bai Wanli and the Li family wouldn't have dared not refuse." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"If I can get you to tell me my name, then why bother recruiting you?" The president's expression suddenly changed, and he was really moody.
"Hey, what do you think I should do?" Li Xiu spread his hands helplessly.
"Just do what you have to do. You are such an old man, do you still want me to teach you how to do things step by step?" said the president Dan Mo.
"I understand when you say that. You don't have to worry about the magic costume masters and the research institute. I guarantee that a new type of magic costume will come out soon. As long as the resources are sufficient, a super-soul-level combat force will soon be formed.
"Li Xiu said.
"Not enough." The president took a sip of tea.
"Isn't Super Soul enough?" Li Xiu asked.
"The space city has developed magic equipment that can compete with the super soul level, and has been put into mass production. It will soon form a legion level super soul combat capability." The president said calmly.
"So fast?" Li Xiu was a little surprised.
When he was in Space City, Space City did not have super-soul-level magic equipment, but now it can be mass-produced.
"You, the God of Space City, don't even know?"
The president's words made Li Xiu feel a little chilly: "Does he really know my magic costumer codename, or is he deceiving me?"
Thinking of what Master Ba said before coming, Li Xiu smiled and said: "I really can't hide anything from you, President, but I'm afraid you have some misunderstandings. Space City and I just have a cooperative relationship. It's over now. I have nothing to do with Space City."
relation."
"That's true." The president nodded and said, "Do you know who the God in Space City is now?"
"I don't know, President, do you know?" Li Xiu asked, staring at the President. He had always wanted to know the answer to this question.
"You will naturally know in the future." The president did not tell him the answer. He picked up the tea and took a sip and said, "If you have more snacks at the institute, you can't fall behind others."
"I will supervise them." Li Xiu said.
"Supervision alone is not enough, more results need to be produced." the president corrected.
"The results are definitely there, but the manpower of researchers is really not enough." Li Xiuxiu wanted to take the opportunity to gain some benefits, but was interrupted by the president.
"You are the chief of the technician team. If you don't have enough people, you can call them yourself."
Li Xiu said helplessly: "The talents for studying magic equipment are basically monopolized by Space City and White Night City. Where can I recruit them?"
"Isn't there one in your City of Light?" the president said calmly.
Li Xiu was slightly startled. Knowing that Ximen Guan was in his place, the president also knew it very well. If he hadn't wanted to use Li Xiu, I'm afraid something would have happened to Ximen Guan.
"You should know something about that person's temper. He has no interest in making such magic equipment. He only wants to make magic equipment that can be brought into the trial gate..." Li Xiu told the truth.
"Then it depends on your ability. I only look at the results. You can handle the process yourself." The president said coldly.
"Okay, I'll handle it myself." Li Xiu changed the topic and asked, "Actually, in terms of research and development capabilities, Space City is the best now. Why not let Guan Jinghao join our Changshengtian?"
"You have been in Space City for three years. What do you think of Guan Jinghao?" The president asked instead without answering Li Xiu's question.
"Able and ambitious." Li Xiu replied.
"You said one thing less." The president said calmly.
"What's missing?" Li Xiu looked at the president. The answer to this question should be the answer he wanted to know.

The president stood up and stood next to the railing, looked at the fish in the pond and said, "What do you think is the difference between the magic equipment in Space City and the magic equipment in other places?"
Li Xiu muttered: "The technology is better than other places, but this cannot be said to be different. It can only be said that the technology is more advanced. Even the magic equipment in Changshengtian is made of good materials and powerful enough.
The magic equipment has stronger performance. But in terms of technology, it is still not as good as Space City. Many detailed technologies may seem inconspicuous, but the real experience is very different."
"Why do you think the space city has so many advanced technologies?" the president asked again.
"It takes a long time to develop and requires a lot of investment in research." Li Xiu thought for a while and replied.
"The first person to study magic equipment was Changshengtian. Space City was a place where precious stones were scarce, and it started relatively late. Basically, most of the materials had to be purchased from outside. In such a place, the most advanced magic equipment was developed.
Don’t you think there’s a problem with pretending to be technical?” the president said nonchalantly.
"I have thought about this problem before." Li Xiu pondered: "The reason why White Night City was able to start is that most of the technology relies on imitation, and then continues to innovate on the basis of imitation. This makes sense. Space City
Their technology has always been at the forefront of the world, and it has been this way from the beginning. I always thought it was because they were lucky and got many excellent magic equipment researchers. It seems that you, the president, have a different answer."
"The answer is not important." The president walked out of the pavilion and said while walking: "I will give you the resources, you can use the people as you like, and raise the level of the magic equipment. Again, I will give you whatever you want.
I don’t care about the process, I only want the result, and Changshengtian’s magical equipment cannot be worse than Space City’s.”
"Understood." Li Xiu had no choice but to agree.
"Your trialer level has improved very quickly, and it has reached S level. Then go to the inner treasury to get a super spiritual gem. I will give you a suggestion. It is best to choose a super spiritual gem produced on the earth."
After finishing speaking, the president left the courtyard: "Go, I should rest. I haven't been in good health recently, and the doctor asked me to rest more."
"Doctor?" Li Xiu was slightly startled. This was the first time he heard that trialists still need to see a doctor.
After Li Xiu left the yard, he saw Master Ba still waiting outside.
"Why are you still here?" Li Xiu asked.
"Waiting to take you to the inner treasury to select super spiritual gems." Master Ba smiled.
"So it turns out that I made this decision before I came here. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Li Xiu frowned.
"The more you know, the easier it is for you to have taboos when speaking, which will do you no good." Master Ba took Li Xiu to the inner treasury.
"Why does the president still have time to go to Hongsha City to be the city lord?" Li Xiu asked.
The eighth master was so frightened that he quickly made a silencing gesture: "My little ancestor, can you stop talking nonsense? If someone listens to you, you will be in big trouble."
"Okay, then tell me some secrets that I can listen to." Li Xiu said.
"I'm a word tester, so how can I know any secrets?" Master Ba insisted and refused to let go. No matter what Li Xiu said, it was of no use.
The two people came to the inner treasury. Master Ba used the sign to open the way, and soon someone took them into the inner treasury.
The inner warehouse is not as big as the warehouse of the General Affairs Department. It is just a small four-story building.
The strange thing is that there are no guards in this small building, and there are no people who manage the inner treasury. There is only a blind old woman cleaning inside.
"Why are there no guards here? Aren't you afraid of being stolen?" Li Xiu saw that the blind old woman was ordinary. She didn't even have a skill mark or a demon ring on her hands. She didn't seem to be a trialist.
"Coming to the city lord's mansion to steal things, are you overthinking it?" Master Ba laughed.
"That's right." Li Xiu glanced at the shelves in the building. There were many kinds of things on them, but he didn't see the super spiritual gem.
"Blind woman, where is the super spiritual gem?" Master Ba asked to the blind old woman.
"On the shelf on the left side of the third floor." The blind woman replied while wiping something, without even looking back.
In fact, there was no point in turning around, since he couldn't see it anyway.
Master Ba took Li Xiu up the stairs to the third floor. Li Xiu asked as he walked: "You can't ask anything else, but you can always ask about Li Qingyin, right? The president has given birth to such a daughter for thousands of years. Who does he have?"
Is there a problem, or is there something wrong with the woman he’s looking for?”
"You'd better kill me!" Master Ba said with a grimace when he heard Li Xiu's question.
"Then I won't ask this, who is Li Qingyin's mother? This can be said, right?" Li Xiu said with a smile.
Master Ba breathed a sigh of relief: "This is nothing. No one in Changsheng Heaven knows that Mrs. Qianhua gave birth to the president's daughter, and she is the eighty-seventh wife of the president."
"Let me go, the president has married so many wives?" Li Xiu asked in surprise.
"Not much. In ancient times, emperors had three palaces and six courtyards. The president lived for thousands of years, but he was much more powerful than those emperors. Even if he had three thousand beauties in the harem, it was nothing." The eighth master said: "But the president is
A person who values love and righteousness will never have two wives at the same time. He will be devoted to each wife until the death of the previous wife before marrying a new one."
"Then why none of his eighty-six wives gave him a son and a half? Does the president have any hidden illness? Is Li Qingyin really the president's biological child?" Li Xiu asked in a lowered voice.
"Brother, fourth brother, can I call you fourth master? Can we not seek death?" The eighth master's legs are weak.
"Okay, let's take a look at the Super Soul Gem." Li Xiu came to the shelf that the blind woman mentioned, reached out and opened a box on the shelf, and immediately saw a purple Super Soul Gem inside the box.
Purple light swims inside, like a colorful bird flying inside the gem.
"The things in the inner treasury are all collected by the president himself. Although there are not many, everything is of high quality. It is a great kindness for you to come to the inner treasury to select super spiritual gems. Except for the eldest lady
"No one else has this blessing, so you have to choose carefully." Master Ba said, looking straight at a box on the shelf, obviously giving a signal to Li Xiu.
