Chapter 227: Rift
There are a total of four private rooms on the 22nd floor of the canteen, and two of them are facing the river, both of which are 100 square meters, with floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows and a wide view.
These two private rooms are not something that can be entered with money, and they don't charge money here.
Under the recommendation of the welcome lady, Jiang Xun walked to the private room where Zhang Jiujun was, the door of the private room was open, and a waiter was standing outside the private room waiting, and Zhang Jiujun's rich voice was faintly heard inside.
He's on the phoneβ
"No, Lao Zhou, I'm really too difficult, dozens of people under my hands are waiting for the resources you have allocated, you say that if I can't feed them, how can they work hard?
They are all young people, and it is also the golden age of increasing strength, everyone has blood, but in the face of monsters, it is useful if there is blood, then it has to be ...... real strength."
ββ¦β¦β
"I know your difficulties, but I'm also difficult, just make people desperate, don't give resources, can't talk about it......"
ββ¦β¦β
"Got it, alas, Lao Zhou, we're old friends, you can apply for me again......"
ββ¦β¦β
Jiang Xun waited at the door for a while, deliberately not interrupting Zhang Jiujun's call, until the phone hung up, he pushed the door in.
Zhang Jiujun inside just put down his mobile phone and was slightly stunned when he saw Jiang Xun: "You are Jiang Xun, right?" Come, sit! β
Good guy, it's an old drama.
Jiang Xun didn't believe in Zhang Jiujun's cultivation, he didn't know when he got off the elevator, he knew that he was coming, and he acted like he had just seen it, and he cried before he entered the door.
Jiang Xun knew very well that Zhang Jiujun called Lao Zhou at this time to show himself.
Lao Zhou on the phone is Minister Zhou who is in charge of the logistics department, and many resources are allocated by Minister Zhou, but in fact, Minister Zhou cannot be completely in charge, after all, most of the resources are taken out by the major families and extraordinary organizations in China.
"You are Minister Zhang? I'm Jiang Xun, and this is my companion. Jiang Xun pointed to Yu Bingling, Yu Guiwan and Cheng Yingjun, and then looked at Zhou Yukun's father and daughter and said, "These two are my friends." β
"Sit down, you're here at the right time, and the dishes are just about to be served." Zhang Jiujun stood up, "I'll also introduce you, this ......"
Next to Zhang Jiujun, there was a middle-aged man about forty or fifty years old.
The hair on the forehead of this middle-aged man is all combed with hair oil, neat and meticulous, this hairstyle is not just handsome can control, but also needs enough momentum and suppression.
"This is the current president of the Fangshi Association - Li Shengjiang." Zhang Jiujun pointed to the middle-aged man and introduced.
This time, Jiang Xun came to the summer capital, mainly to see Li Shengjiang.
"Mr. Jiang, I've admired my name for a long time." is different from Zhang Jiujun's big grin, after Li Shengjiang saw Jiang Xun, he politely made a meeting etiquette for a monk, which is similar to the handshake of ordinary people, but it is much more formal than the handshake.
Obviously, Li Shengjiang did not look down on Jiang Xun because he was young.
Jiang Xun hurriedly returned the salute, but Jiang Xun was a junior ceremony, and Li Shengjiang could value him, but he couldn't really talk to Li Shengjiang as an equal, after all, in this life, he was not yet twenty years old.
"I have read your message under my paper for a long time, and I have sent you several emails, but I have not been able to contact you, and later I learned that you have solved two tricky monster incidents in the past few days, but my personal matter is irrelevant."
Li Shengjiang originally thought that Jiang Xun was a junior born and experienced in a certain Fangshi family, but he checked the information of the major families, but there was no such person.
This is very interesting, without a family background, he can understand this level of the art of the monk, then he is really an indescribable genius.
So this made Li Shengjiang want to see Jiang Xun more and more, and later learned that Jiang Xun had continuously solved the quasi-Shura-level parasitic ghosts in just a few days, and the flying ghosts whose abilities were very strange and confusing.
This surprised Li Shengjiang even more, the average Fang Shi spends a lot of time on alchemy and medicine, and most of his own combat effectiveness is not high, Jiang Xun can blossom on both sides, which makes Li Shengjiang can't help but be full of curiosity about Jiang Xun's identity.
He even suspected for a moment that their information about Jiang Xun was not true.
Senior Li laughed, Senior Li's research paper direction is also related to the future of Taixia, how can it be a private matter? I came to the summer capital this time, in fact, mainly to meet Senior Li. I would like to borrow the alchemy equipment of the Fangshi Association, and at the same time I would like to acquire some materials. β
Jiang Xun got straight to the point, if he wanted to absorb the refining parasitic ghost Neidan, he had to rely on the help of the Fangshi Association.
"Oh? Do you have any ideas you'd like to try? Li Shengjiang suddenly became interested, "The utensils are no problem, I can borrow them, in terms of materials, what do you need." β
Li Shengjiang said very boldly, you must know that for the monks, the medicine furnace is the second life, and it is very precious to them.
Many alchemists often keep a furnace for their lives, and constantly use their own spirit to temper, which is a perfect fit with themselves, so the furnace is easy not to borrow from others, and even some alchemists do not let people touch their own medicine furnace.
"Thank you, Senior Li, for the material...... I need a top-grade Yuan Crystal, a pound of Fountain of Youth, five coins of mandala filigree, and three 10,000-year-old ice crystals. β
Hearing Jiang Xun's demand, Li Shengjiang blinked, originally when Jiang Xun opened his mouth to be a top-grade Yuan Crystal, he already felt outrageous, but he didn't expect the materials behind to be more valuable.
Take the Fountain of Youth, for example, which is the best source of water for boiling medicine.
Generally, the medicine is boiled, that is, the fountain of immortality with good mountain spring water and half a wine cup.
This is already considered a luxury, a poorer way, that is, to add a drop or two of the fountain of youth.
But as soon as Jiang Xun opened his mouth, it was a catty.
Is this all about boiling medicine with the Fountain of Youth?
Li Shengjiang shook his head and said, "The materials you want are too expensive, I will help you get a top-grade Yuan Crystal at most, and I can sell it to you at a discount." Other materials are priceless and marketable, not to mention that you buy them with money, and you may not be able to exchange them for merit points. β
The things in the merit value mall are naturally precious, but they are not everything, and the major families and extraordinary organizations are forced by the pressure from all sides, as well as the threat of monsters, to come up with some good goods at the bottom of the box.
But there are some things that are urgently needed and urgently needed, and they will not take them out.
Like the Fountain of Youth.
This kind of spring water is formed in a closed environment, after millions of years of natural liquefaction of the vitality of heaven and earth, not to mention using it to refine medicine, just a sip of it, can prolong life.
"I understand what Senior Li said, I just said that I need these materials, as for how much it costs to collect them, I will pay them slowly, for example, now I have a special Shadow Blood Crystal in my hand."
As soon as Jiang Xun flipped his hand, a blood crystal with a pitch-black body fell on his hand, this is the blood crystal left behind by the flying ghost after his death, it is completely different from ordinary blood crystals, and it is an attractive treasure for Fang Shi.
Of course, Jiang Xun also has a blood crystal left by the parasitic ghost, which is more valuable than the blood essence of the shadow, but this blood crystal has to be used with the parasitic ghost Neidan, and Jiang Xun will not take it out.
Jiang Xun's plan was to first put forward the materials he needed, and the Fang Shi Association would provide the price, how much merit value was needed, and what items were needed to redeem it, and then he slowly raised it.
Seeing the Shadow Blood Crystal that Jiang Xun took out, Li Shengjiang's eyes lit up: "This ...... Can I take a look? β
"Absolutely." Jiang Xun handed the Shadow Blood Crystal to Li Shengjiang.
Li Shengjiang took it in his hand, looked at it over and over again, sensed it with his spiritual power, and stroked it with his hands.
In the end, he was amazed and reluctantly returned it to Jiang Xun.
As a scholar, Li Shengjiang was of course interested in this rare and exotic object, and he wanted to take a piece and study it well.
But interest is interest, this shadow blood crystal is Jiang Xun's, and he has no way to leave.
"Jiang Xun, your blood crystal is indeed precious, but if the Fang Shi Association wants to study and understand it, it will also have to pay a lot of energy and cost, and to be honest, its value should not be comparable to the Fountain of Youth, so if you want to expect this Shadow Blood Crystal to be exchanged for a lot of things, I'm afraid it's unrealistic."
"I understand, I didn't expect to exchange this blood crystal for so many things, I'm just giving an example, I don't know if Senior Li Shengjiang has heard of the White Eagle Empire's military operations in the Tiansha Sea?"
Tiansha Sea?
Li Shengjiang was slightly stunned, he didn't know about this, he devoted himself to the research of the art of Fangshi, wanting to make some achievements and make some contributions to the country, as for the news or something, he hadn't paid attention to it for a long time.
Special military operations are such a thing as big news in peacetime, but now that the end of the world is approaching, countries are too busy to take care of themselves, and slightly cumbersome modern weapons have gradually faded out of people's field of vision, how can there be military action?
Now Jiang Xun mentioned this matter...... Does it have anything to do with what he wants to refine?
Regarding Jiang Xun's words, Zhang Jiujun was more concerned: "Do you know about this? β
Zhang Jiujun was a little surprised, Tiansha Sea is the territorial boundary of Taixia in the south, far away 15,000 kilometers, and further south are the Thousand Islands and Xingzhou.
The army of the White Eagle Empire, in fact, was only cruising on the edge of the Tiansha Sea, far away from Taixia's territorial waters, and it did not violate international law, and Taixia did not protest.
And because this military operation of the White Eagle Empire involves some secrets, so much so that the news has not reported it.
For the population, it was a completely covert operation.
But Jiang Xun actually knew?
"What do you know?" Zhang Jiujun touched his chin and looked at Jiang Xun with a strange look in his eyes.
"I know that this military operation of the White Eagle Empire is related to the mutation on the edge of the Tiansha Sea."
Zhang Jiujun took a deep look at Jiang Xun, this kid actually knows so many things?
Jiang Xun calmly looked at Zhang Jiujun, he knew in his heart that no matter Zhang Jiujun or Li Shengjiang, in their eyes, he was a powerful and valuable junior.
However, a junior is a junior, no matter how promising he is, he is just a junior after all.
This is not what Jiang Xun wants, it depends on Zhang Jiujun's attitude, cry before entering the door, in fact, the reason is obvious, that is, Zhang Jiujun knows that Jiang Xun will knock on the bamboo today, so he gave Jiang Xun a preventive shot in advance, not that Zhang Jiujun is stingy, but the resources that Taixia can call are too tight.
Cry poor first, lower Jiang Xun's psychological expectations, and then give some benefits appropriately, then Jiang Xun will be more satisfied.
This practice is actually also a practice for juniors.
But Jiang Xun wanted more than that.
In his previous life, Jiang Xun also dealt with Zhang Jiujun, this senior elder of bad people, although he was an old fritter who picked and searched, but in fact, he also gave Jiang Xun a lot of care, and all the resources he could get were fought for Jiang Xun.
At that time, Jiang Xun had always behaved as Zhang Jiujun's junior and was a soldier under Zhang Jiujun.
But in this life, Jiang Xun is already strong enough, with Yu Bingling, Yu Gui Wan to help, and Yan Yuekong hidden in an independent space, there is no need for him to appear in front of Zhang Jiujun as a junior.
The two things of flying ghosts and parasitic ghosts have proved Jiang Xun's strength.
If you just get some resources as a junior, it will grow too slowly.
Jiang Xun didn't mind showing some of his special features, he wanted to stand on a higher level, contact with Taixia, and even cooperate.
Therefore, Jiang Xun directly said the military operation of the White Eagle Empire and the reason for this military operation, even if this information is very unreasonable in terms of Jiang Xun's identity.
Jiang Xun is not afraid of Taixia checking himself, they can't find anything, even if they have any doubts, they can only put them in their stomachs, in this dangerous apocalypse, Taixia can't do anything to himself because of this doubt.
"So, you also know what happened on the mainland of the White Eagle Empire seven days ago." Zhang Jiujun asked again.
Jiang Xun nodded.
Zhang Jiujun raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashed with a deep light, he looked at Jiang Xun like this, as if he wanted to see Jiang Xun through, he understood that if Jiang Xun's identity was really that simple, he shouldn't know what happened in the White Eagle Empire anyway.
And Taixia's side also paid a lot of money to obtain these top-secret information.
On the side, Li Shengjiang listened with a confused expression, what happened to the White Eagle Empire itself?
"I'm sorry, I'm going to the bathroom." Li Shengjiang has already felt it, the next thing Zhang Jiujun and Jiang Xun want to talk about is more secret, although Li Shengjiang is concerned about Taixia, but he is not a ZF staff member after all, this kind of thing is better to avoid.
"I'll go too." Zhou Yukun hurriedly stood up with his daughter and said.
Before leaving, he also patted Cheng Yingjun who was in a daze and called Cheng Yingjun away.
For a while, only Jiang Xun, Yu Bingling, Yu Guiwan and Zhang Jiujun were left in the private room.
Obviously, the two girls had no intention of avoiding it, and Zhang Jiujun didn't care either, because Jiang Xun obviously trusted the two girls very much, and as long as he wanted, he could tell the two of them the information word for word.
"It doesn't have to be like this, does it?" Jiang Xun smiled and shook his head, "The crack in the other world, it appeared in the White Eagle Empire seven days ago, and the ghost hunters of the White Eagle Empire have already entered to explore, this matter is really not a top secret information, because it will be made public soon, isn't it?" β
(Recently, the plot of the next stage has been planned, and it has been a little slow, sorry)
