Chapter 509: Party Building and Reform IV
Listening to this detail, the original complicated evil feeling turned into a faint pleasure. Then he asked, "By the way, what laws and regulations do we have in the crocodile collar regarding the slave trade?" ”
"Nope. ”
Jiao Ming was stunned and asked, "In the past, there was no case of slave traders going deep into the interior to steal slaves?"
"In the densely populated areas of the southern world, there are so many cheap slaves, why bother to eat and run to our poor countryside to steal them. ”
"That's just as well. Jiao Ming was stunned.
"In addition, the price of slaves has been reduced in the last year, and our crocodile collar is buying a large number of them. I remember you didn't like the slave trade, but if you have any ideas, you'd better talk to me first. ”
"Understood. Jiao Ming nodded. "The last thing, I've been so busy these days that I'm dizzy, so it's not okay, how about allocating a few of my people. ”
"Can ordinary people do it?"
"Of course not. Something that offends people or overseers, how can ordinary people bear it, they will evaporate from the world. ”
"Magical talents are not rich, so I try to loot them. I suggest that you go and discuss recruiting people with Yisi, I heard that the Red Mountain Kingdom is killing people a lot. Besides, you might as well empty your viscounty. Those middle layers are guarding a factory that has been shut down, which is too wasteful. ”
Vaguely, there is also a little bit of caution in this to cut off Jiao Ming's back road. Jiao Ming didn't notice it, but just thought about it. I remember that there is also a family of qi magicians who are loyal to me, and the head of the family is Qihuan. Ask about the situation, if you can dig the foot of the wall, it can even be regarded as filling the gap in the crocodile collar high ring gas system.
"Give it a try. ”
"Are you free after dinner?"
"I'm going to sort out the materials for the ideological and political class, but I'm not in a hurry. ”
"Then continue to talk in the evening, I still have something to do, you see......" Binglian's slender finger pointed in the direction of the laboratory.
Jiao Ming looked at the reddened sky outside the window, kissed him deeply before letting go of the beauty in his arms, and after saying goodbye, he left this magic research institute and returned to his residence, but saw Luohua in the room.
"Report to your Excellency. The fish frying family has been arranged, and not long ago, the space teleportation device reacted again, I am not a qi magician, and I didn't move. Finally, Dieda has just sent a document for you to see. ”
Jiao Ming's eyes fell on this beautiful maid, feeling the ability and hard work shown in her words and deeds, and then recalling the idea just now, he suddenly became entangled, isn't there a way to have both fish and bear paws?
However, this look made Luo Hua's cheeks blush and bow slightly, "My lord, you look at me like this......"
"Ahem, sorry. Jiao Ming settled down, sat back in his seat and began to fiddle with the spatial teleporter.
"You don't need to apologize. ”
"Come here. Jiao Ming greeted, waited for Luo Hua to get closer, grabbed a pair of small hands and kissed lightly. "When I'm done with the beginning of this stage, I'm going to make a cultivation plan for a water-based magic warrior. You're still in the Fourth Ring, that's not okay. When the time comes, come with me to participate in the exercise, at least to the level of the six rings, and no matter what the result is, I will be more relieved. ”
"Okay. Luohua, whose face was flushed, didn't hear what the request was, so she agreed directly.
After all, the space teleporter is only a prototype of a teleportation circle, and it is completely impossible to reach the level of a telephone message or fax machine on Earth, and the mailbox system in the game is incomparable. So Jiao Ming fiddled a few times, but he only knew that the Red Mountain Kingdom was trying to get in touch, and when he saw that there was no response from this side, he gave up.
Dial back, the other side responds immediately, and the letter transmission begins again. But it was this afternoon's work, and Yisi found two more talents in the accounting room, the kind that did not get involved in lawsuits. One is the second son of a family's account office, because his father's position was inherited by the eldest brother, he can only find another way. The other is amazing, it is actually a sage in Qingshui City who teaches bookkeeping and arithmetic, although he is an ordinary person, he has a great reputation in the craftsman area.
Of course, Jiao Ming did not refuse to come, and agreed to teleport tomorrow, and by the way, according to what he had just talked to Binglian, he expanded the recruitment conditions. Then he changed the target of the communication, and sent a letter to the Seaview Lord's Mansion in the Viscount of the Red Mountain Kingdom, instructing the people who stayed there to prepare to move and contact the Qi Mage family that was loyal to him.
The crocodile territory is located at high latitudes, in the late autumn season, and the cold days are short. It's just that I've been busy with this guy, and it's already dark, but there's still a little time before dinner. As soon as Jiao Ming opened the second page of Dieda's report, the space teleporter rang again, and then spit out a metal cylinder that sealed the letter without waiting for operation.
With such an effect, the other party must be a high-ring qi magician who is familiar with this 'little toy'. And after a little screening, Master Emily is undoubted. Jiao Ming opened the metal cylinder with a little surprise, and the handwriting on the cover confirmed the conjecture.
However, the content in my heart is not so happy, Master Emily actually plans to catch Jiao Ming's strong man and go to participate in a 'big project' of the Magicians Association together. Reading between the lines, on the one hand, I like Jiao Ming's rigorous thinking in magic research, and on the other hand, I also have the consideration of bringing apprentices to mix their faces and get acquainted with experience.
Jiao Ming was grateful, but he could only refuse ruthlessly, after all, he was really busy here. Since rejection is a little bit, the key to replying is tactfulness. And this is not difficult to say, Jiao Ming had no choice but to find Dieda as a helper.
When the reply letter was sent out, the meal was approaching, the door slammed open, and it was Xiao Shi who rushed in. After a big hug, Jiao Ming remembered a stubble, and inertly thought that Xiao Shi's age should be in school, but the crocodile collar only established a junior high school, and there was no high school at all, and judging from Heishi's narration, it also proved that this group of dolls were busy with their own work, so the problem arose.
"You haven't seen anyone every day, what have you tossed? And forgot to ask you, how many rings are in the soil?"
"The earth system is almost the sixth ring. Speaking of magic mediums, this thing is much easier than math problems. Brother, you have to work hard, otherwise I will catch up with you and lose face. ”
If it was placed in the past, this age and ring number were already the promotion speed of geniuses, but in the case of the combination of work and cultivation in the two places of Tro Collar and Crocodile Collar, it was just average.
"Not bad. ”
"Is there a reward then?"
"What do you want?" As soon as the words came out, Jiao Ming regretted it a little, how could he let the other party offer a price at this time, but it was difficult to chase the horse, and it was really difficult to change his words.
"Or how about a beach vacation?"
Jiao Ming was stunned. Since the portal, the viscounts and crocodile have come and gone freely. Last year, when I was wandering around the Green Flame Kingdom, I heard that these little guys were very diligent, eager to be in the crocodile territory during the day, but enjoy the scenery of the tropical beach at night. It was not until the frequency was reduced for safety reasons, and every time Huang Xia Zimang put down his work and accompanied him. Under such a premise, it is obvious that it will not be the usual simple situation to raise this request again.
However, in the spirit of what happened, Jiao Ming tried to pretend to be confused. "Don't you go there often?"
"It's fun when you're together. And you're responsible for pulling everybody over. ”
"This is at least until the portal is repaired. Also, who do you mean? Isn't it the same as the year before?"
"Of course. ”
"Everyone has their own work to do, and this kind of thing can't be forced. Think about it, even if their bodies go to the beach, I'm afraid that their hearts are still thinking about all kinds of things in the crocodile collar, how can they have fun?"
"But ......" Xiaoshi is not stupid, of course she can figure out this situation, but she is speechless if she wants to refute it.
"When people grow up, those simple happy times of childhood are gone. Even if you keep it the same, your former playmates will change, and that feeling will never be found. ”
"The tone of your voice reminds me of my grandfather. Xiao Shi pursed her lips, obviously unhappy.
Jiao Ming smiled slightly, and before the little guy came back to his senses from his sadness and remembered to change the reward conditions, he changed the topic and beat him upside down. "And you girl, don't change the subject. I haven't explained what I'm busy with every day. ”
The little poem that is a little depressed is straightforward and straightforward, briefly introducing his life. In the morning, I went to the graduate school to help out or do some research. In addition, there are earthen courses and assignments at the Advanced Magic Academy, and the kind of correspondence courses by letter. In the afternoon, I went to the film studio and helped shoot the movie. If there is morning light, the little guy can't be busy, so he will do a few magic operations for the implantation of soul fragments.
Jiao Ming nodded, chatted and joked with Xiao Shi again, and decided to pull Xiao Shi into his team. Then Binglian knocked on the door and entered, followed by Luohua pushing a dining cart. A room full of people had a happy dinner, and Jiao Ming suddenly realized that there was only one man in the room.
After the meal, Xiaoshi still wanted to pester Jiao Ming to chat, but was sent back to the next room by Jiao Ming, who was hinted at by the ice lotus. When Jiao Ming turned around again, he saw that Xia Feng and Luohua had also disappeared, and seeing that Binglian's expression was not heavy and sad, he shrugged his shoulders and said.
"The soundproofing barrier is complete, and we can talk. ”
"Don't rush to say. It's a nice night outside, can you fly with me?"
"Weightlessness magic can't fly, it's barely 'floating'. Jiao Ming said as he pushed open the window, hugged the ice lotus into his arms, and reminded: "Reducing your own magic level is the same as when you teleport." ”
Binglian was very skillful in incarnating an octopus, and in turn hugged Jiao Ming's upper body tightly, and his chin was embedded in Jiao Ming's shoulder socket, and with the movement of nodding, Jiao Ming was itchy.
Then, the two floated out of the window. In fact, leveling the space for weightlessness is like pulling the corners to taut a huge sheet with a basketball-like weight in the middle of the sheet. With a little skill, you can still move the basketball by tilting the sheets.
Jiao Ming is modest, but in fact, this operation is still no problem. It didn't go far from the window before it accelerated laterally, as if carried by an invisible floating pallet, flying around the high-rise building in mid-air.
"How?"
"It's a little dizzy. Binglian told the truth, but when she saw Jiao Ming's bitter face, she smiled out loud with a general purpose. "I was dizzy, but I was happy. ”
"That's pretty much it. Then let's fly in a straight line, you choose a direction. ”
"Go to the farm. ”
"Howler. ”
The straight lines were different and circled, and the speed quickly soared, coupled with the autumn wind that was already a little chilly, the two just said a few words and tacitly shut up and kept quiet.
About a quarter of an hour later, Jiao Ming stopped flying and patted Binglian on the back. "I'm sorry, but I don't know where the farm is, I just picked a random direction, so I'm lost now. ”
"You guy. Binglian complained angrily, and pinching Jiao Ming's back was a punishment, but she slowly kneaded it. Then I looked up at the sky, but it was cloudy, and I couldn't find anyone for a while. He looked around for a marker.
It was pitch black around here, with only a few faint lights in the distance, and judging by the shape, it was a simple five-story brick and concrete building, judging from this, it should be a residential area on the outskirts of Changteng Town.
"Go over there. ”
"Ordered. ”
"Thirty-seven districts. Well...... Let me think. Binglian briefly recalled and did simple mental arithmetic, and once again pointed out a direction. "Here, the estimated speed is still about a quarter of an hour, and it is the farm. ”
Once again, he enjoyed a quiet quarter of an hour, and then Jiao Ming knew that he had reached his target from the unique taste of the animals without reminding. And here is different from the darkness just now, not only are there more lights, but there are also pedestrians on the street, and the whole seems to be a remote village and town in Zhongguo that has fallen into the night. According to the contour of the light, Jiao Mingxun fell from the roof of a building.
"You can get to the point, it's too torturous to hang your appetite like this. ”
"Then I'll get straight to the point. If 'seeking truth from facts' and 'equality for all' were at odds with each other, which would you insist on?"
Jiao Ming blinked his eyes twice, and after being a little stunned, he roughly understood what Binglian meant. If the inequality of all people in this world is an objective fact, then to force equality of all people is to fall into dogma.
"But ......"
"After all, this place is a different world from your hometown. Isn't it?"
"Weightlessness magic can't fly, it's barely 'floating'. Jiao Ming said as he pushed open the window, hugged the ice lotus into his arms, and reminded: "Reducing your own magic level is the same as when you teleport." ”
Binglian was very skillful in incarnating an octopus, and in turn hugged Jiao Ming's upper body tightly, and his chin was embedded in Jiao Ming's shoulder socket, and with the movement of nodding, Jiao Ming was itchy.
Then, the two floated out of the window. In fact, leveling the space for weightlessness is like pulling the corners to taut a huge sheet with a basketball-like weight in the middle of the sheet. With a little skill, you can still move the basketball by tilting the sheets.
Jiao Ming is modest, but in fact, this operation is still no problem. It didn't go far from the window before it accelerated laterally, as if carried by an invisible floating pallet, flying around the high-rise building in mid-air.

"It's a little dizzy. Binglian told the truth, but when she saw Jiao Ming's bitter face, she smiled out loud with a general purpose. "I was dizzy, but I was happy. ”
The straight lines were different and circled, and the speed quickly soared, coupled with the autumn wind that was already a little chilly, the two just said a few words and tacitly shut up and kept quiet.
