in the room.

Li Ba sat at the table, holding a talisman knife, concentrating on carving on a palm-sized beast bone. It fell like rain, bone chips flew wildly, and the ground around him was covered with a thick layer of debris. On the table, there are more than a dozen talismans horizontally, some of which are made of bone, some of which are made of wood, and some of which are made of jade. Under the reflection of the lights, there is a faint spiritual light.

The knife is like a pen, and the iron is painted with a silver hook, and on the small animal bones, a complex pattern is outlined. At a certain moment, when Li Ba retracted his knife, a dazzling blue light erupted on the surface of this pale blue beast bone, and the runes flowed like fireflies, revealing an indescribable mysterious aura.

"It's done!"

Li Ba had a smile on his face. After ten days and ten nights of sleepless practice, he has basically mastered the method of carving urns, and he often uses more than a dozen kinds of spirit urns to make all of them. It's just that all of them are low-grade spirit urns.

After taking the golden Jiao bones and trying to carve them, after more than ten failures, he finally made a water shield talisman. The spirit urn carved with king-level mutant beast materials has really improved its quality and reached the middle grade. The number of times it has been used and its lifespan is more than three times higher than that of the lower grade talismans, and its power effect cannot be compared.

The surprise was followed by a wave of fatigue. Looking inward, the lower abdomen dantian natal talisman was dim. The Yuan Force stored in the one-grade Yuan Fu can only allow Li Ba to depict the Yuan Fu three times. After that, you need to absorb the crystal nucleus to recover the Yuan Force before you can continue.

With a wave of his hand, all the finished talismans on the table were put away. Li Ba took out two third-level mutant anaconda crystal nuclei, pinched them in the palms of his hands, closed his eyes slightly, and began to cultivate the Great Yan Technique to recover the lost Yuan Force.

It was only half an hour, and when he opened his eyes, he was in good spirits. I don't see the slightest bit of fatigue. The two green crystals in his hand were much darker in color.

Collapse the crystal nucleus. Li Ba's mind moved, and his consciousness body had entered the bracelet space.

The fog is vast. Tall ironwood trees stand on that magical land. Greed absorbs the pure vitality that lingers around it, as well as the nutrients in the soil. As Li Ba's consciousness entered, all the branches and leaves of the Ironwood Tree trembled, as if welcoming the arrival of the king in their minds.

The nine bodies of the Devil Crying Vine flew in the air, making a 'woo' roaring sound. If the stone trough of the big pond, the spiritual spring is full, the blue waves are not clear, and the bottom is clear.

The bracelet space is as ethereal as ever. It's like a fairyland.

At the edge of the stone trough, the golden young Jiao is entrenched, and ten dwarf trees are planted beside it. Each tree bears more than a dozen finger-sized green fruits, giving off an alluring fragrance. The golden young Jiao coiled among these low trees, staring at the fruit hanging between the branches and leaves, and the snake was full of salivation.

It wasn't until Li Ba's consciousness came that it reacted, turned around and shook its head at Li Ba. Sell obediently to please.

"It's not cooked yet! Don't steal it! ”

Li Ba said with a smile. These dwarf trees are the mother plants of the green ravel. After reaching a contract with the Jiang family, in just two or three days, the Jiang family gathered ten green radish fruits to buy. On the side of the Harvest Firm, two hundred evolutionary potions were delivered as promised.

The green radish fruit that is poured into the hand. It is all planted in the bracelet space by Li Ba. After being born in a magical land, the spiritual spring is moistened, and it sprouts and grows. Now it has become ten green carrot mother plants. In just ten days, it has blossomed and borne fruit. There are more than 100 green radish fruits.

Elixir cultivation is not easy. These ten green carrot fruit trees bear fruit from germination to flowering and fruiting. The cost of crystal nucleus jade is enough to cultivate five hundred ironwood tree people, and the price is extremely high. If the non-commercial line is opened. It is really unaffordable to earn a large amount of crystal nucleus jade from seven settlements such as Jiangbei City.

However, in a few days, the green radish fruit produced by the mother plant was ripe, which was enough for the more than 100 evolutionaries of the Harvest Trading House to improve their strength.

Spending a low-grade crystal nucleus of jade in exchange for a green radish fruit comparable to forty or fifty third-level crystal nuclei is definitely a good deal. At the same time, the golden young Jiao also showed an abnormal thirst for green radish fruit. It can be seen that this fruit is very good for its growth.

"Good son has to get out!"

Li Ba smiled with his eyebrows and looked at the golden young Jiao who was currying favor in front of him. The allure of green radish fruit, I'm afraid that as long as it is ripe, it will be eaten up by this guy as soon as possible.

Make up your mind, wait for the matter of Jiangbei City to be resolved, and return to Nanchao City immediately. Eight hundred miles of South Lake is the place where the good son lives and grows.

Consciousness returns to its essence. Li Ba saw that the room was in a mess and dirty. The debris everywhere is the product of the failure of carving. Unlike the spirit rune, once it fails, the material will immediately lose its spirituality and turn into ashes.

Because of this, in the initial stage, Li Ba has been using ironwood as a material to practice. After familiarization, jade and high-grade animal bones were used to carve it. That said, the failure rate is huge. He successfully carved more than a dozen commonly used talismans, causing him to lose a large number of animal bones. As for jade, it was also wasted quite a bit.

I can't help but feel a little pain in my heart. But when it comes to the power of the talisman, this loss is nothing.

Get out of the room. In the living room, Yang Jian and Feng Xiaoyang were playing cards. The two guys were gambling seriously, and it seemed that Yang Jian was the big winner, and there was a bunch of food stamps in front of him. Feng Xiaoyang lost so much that his face was red and his neck was thick, and there were signs of madness.

"Thirteen full seals, tripled, three hundred and ninety pounds of food stamps...... Give money, give money! ”

When Li Ba came out, Yang Jian took another good hand of cards and sealed Feng Xiaoyang. They play fast and pay by the cards. Feng Xiaoyang didn't come out with a single one, which tripled, and he lost nearly 400 catties of food stamps in one hand.

"Owe! Let's give it together! ”

Feng Xiaoyang threw the cards on the table fiercely, exhaling that his luck was too back.

"Xiaofeng, let's say okay, a handful, if you lose it all...... You can go to Xiaoying to borrow some. ”

Yang Jian smiled wickedly and forced Feng Xiaoyang to pay the bill. Feng Xiaoyang shook his long hair and shouted: "A few hundred catties of food stamps, Lao Tzu can't afford it...... Deal, deal! "He's lost all his pockets, and he's not even half a big word, and now he's in a hurry to get his money.

Of course Yang Jian refused. According to his words, the loss is over, and the debt will never be accepted.

"The boss is here."

Seeing Li Ba walking out of the room, Yang Jian took the opportunity to put away the food stamps and did not plan to continue playing. Feng Xiaoyang has nowhere to send fire, and the boss comes out, so he can only give up.

With a smile on his face, Li Ba came to the sofa and sat down, picking up a card. Xiao Yang shook his head at Feng Xiaoyang and said, "Xiao Feng, it's not my brother who said you." You're playing cards with a psychopath, isn't that looking for abuse! ”

Feng Xiaoyang was stunned when he heard this. reacted immediately, pointed at Yang Jian and said viciously: "Wow, you slut peeked at Lao Tzu's cards with crooked tricks and paid back!" ”

"I didn't!"

Yang Jian was stiff-mouthed and still needed to refute. At this moment, Feng Xiaoyang had already pounced.

Watching these two guys chase and run away in the living room, screaming and scolding. Li Ba shook his head, a funny expression on his face.

In the end, Yang Jian was still caught by Feng Xiaoyang. Won food stamps and vomited them all.

"Xiaofeng, your brand is not good, Lao Tzu will not play with you in the future!" I was busy for most of the day, and I didn't earn half a tael of food stamps. Yang Jian was quite resentful.

"You are the first to play tricks, and you still talk to Lao Tzu about cards, slut!"

"Okay, Lao Tzu is a slut, you are the cheapest of the cheap!"

The two guys started to move their mouths again after they finished moving. Li Ba really couldn't see it, and shouted with a straight face: "Don't make noise." Come over to Lao Tzu and discuss business! ”

The boss got angry, and the two guys finally stopped and sat down honestly.

"Little wind. It's not for you to go back to Liangcheng, why are you still here? Li Ba first looked at the wind Xiaoyang.

Feng Xiaoyang smiled embarrassedly and said, "I don't worry about Xiaoying, wait for her to break through." I'll go back again. ”

"Boss, he's not worried about Xiaoying. It's not worrying about you! Yang Jian took the opportunity to slander. Revenge Feng Xiaoyang snatched food stamps and hated it.

"What do I have to worry about the boss!" Feng Xiaoyang came to the fire and asked loudly.

Yang Jian smiled cheaply. looked at the room next to Li Ba, and said, "This has to be made clear, you must not worry about Xiaoying living in the same room with the boss!" ”

No way!

It's all about it!

When Feng Xiaoyang was so angry that he was about to run away, Li Ba couldn't help it, and rewarded Yang Jian, a slut, with a few bursts, "Jian, you are so cheap, what do you think Lao Tzu is!" ”

"Well played! Boss, give him a few more hits! Feng Xiaoyang gritted his teeth beside him.

Yang Jian held his head in his hands and cried out with a sad face: "Boss, it's not okay if I say the wrong thing...... You don't need to be ruthless! ”

"If I don't teach you a lesson, I can't control your cheap mouth!"

Li Ba stopped, and saw that Yang Jian was still holding his head and putting on a defensive posture, so he shook his head helplessly, changed the topic, and asked about other things.

"How's it going on over there?"

"Oh, the Stone Belt has swept away the remnants of zombies near Jiangbei, Liangcheng and other seven settlements...... Now, he is leading the team to advance to the north and open up the commercial lines of other settlements. So far, so good! ”

"What about Jiangbei City?"

"It's all right! Including the Jiang family, the rules and regulations are fulfilled in accordance with the contract, and there are no small actions behind the back! ”

"How's the recruitment plan going?"

"So far, we have recruited nearly 200,000 displaced people from seven settlements. According to your boss's instructions, 50 percent of the first recruits are young men, 30 percent are children under the age of 15, and 20 percent are young women. ”

At this point, Yang Jian paused for a moment and continued: "According to Zhao Min's estimate, with the current scale of my Xibu City, it can accommodate a maximum of 600,000 people. Exceeding this number, food resources will not be a problem, but the living environment in the city will be affected.

Li Ba pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Send a message to Zhao Min and ask him to re-plan and design, and the urban area can be extended in the direction of Wujiang Town to expand the population volume ratio." ”

"Okay." Yang Jian nodded.

"Also, the recruitment plan for displaced people continues for me, and the young people are recruited, and the older ones are fine."

Li Ba looked at Yang Jian and advised: "This matter must be fast, increase vehicle transportation, and the car is not enough to take walking." If you can't settle in the city, you can set up resettlement points in Nanchao, Hengshan, and Liyang, and be sure to get the displaced people from these seven settlements to Lao Tzu as soon as possible. ”

"Yes." Yang Jian took out a small notebook to prevent omissions.

Later, Li Ba asked about the fishery situation in Nanhu Lake. Tang Wenbin, the manager of the fishery department, did a very good job, and everything was stable and orderly.

"Boss, I have something to tell you."

After Li Ba's questioning was over, Yang Jian's face was solemn and he said, "In Xibu City, there has been some unrest recently. ”

"Oh." Li Ba's expression moved after hearing this. If something goes wrong in your base camp, that's not a good thing.

From Yang Jian's mouth, it was learned that with the exchange of people from all parties, the public security environment in Xibu City began to be affected. There are no major events, but those survivors from other places have been repeatedly banned from stealing mutated fruits from the green belt in the city. What's more, they even secretly dug up mutated fruit trees.

Tell Yanyan to let her improve the household registration work of residents in the city as soon as possible and issue new identity cards. As for those petty thieves, catch one, break Lao Tzu's leg and hang him at the city gate for three days, permanently expelled, and not allowed to enter Xibu City again! ”

Li Ba said this, looked at Yang Jian, and asked, "What else is going on?" He knew that if it was just this little thing, Yang Jian's expression would not be so solemn.

"There's something abnormal over there Wang Feng."

Yang Jian took out a document and handed it to Li Ba. Li Ba took it and looked at it, and his face immediately sank. In fact, some of the information recorded in the materials had been expected by him. After the military of Jiangbei City sent people to contact Wang Feng, the Xibu military represented by Wang Feng began to mobilize a large number of materials and continuously transported them to Jiangbei City.

Some of these materials were accumulated by the Xibu military earlier. But there is also a large part of it, which belongs to the official materials of Xibu City. If you want to use it, according to the rules, you should say hello to him, the chairman of the management committee, and only after approval.

That's it. Wang Feng, in the name of the management committee, accepted a group of officers from Jiangbei City and placed them in various important posts in the official administrative department. In addition, the military top brass began to keep in touch with the research institute, and secretly sent people to infiltrate the headquarters of their own commercial banks. What to pay attention to, at a glance.

It's just a matter of taking the materials of Xibu City as a favor. As for the official administration, Li Ba has always been reluctant to take care of it, and it doesn't matter. However, contacting the research institute and sending people to infiltrate the headquarters of the comptoir have touched his bottom line and cannot be tolerated.

"Boss, your cousin Luo Director of the Materials Division has been removed and transferred to the Administration Department to take up an idle position. Now I have a lot of opinions, and I went to the headquarters to look for you a few times! ”

Yang Jian saw that Li Ba's face was not good-looking, and he said cautiously: "Wang Feng's gang has obviously colluded with the military of Jiangbei City to seize the administrative power of Xibu City, and they have also started crooked thoughts about new grain varieties and evolutionary potion formulas...... Boss, let's be prepared in advance! ”

Yang Jian is right. Li Ba nodded and ordered: "Send people to keep an eye on these guys in Jiangbei City twenty-four hours a day, and if there are traitors, write them all down for Lao Tzu." When this side of the matter is over, Lao Tzu will go back and settle the account with them! ”

"Also, the people we have planted in the military, it's time to start it!"

"Boss, what do you mean......" Yang Jian realized.

Li Ba smiled, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

"If that day really comes, no one will want to take away the people and materials belonging to Xibu City......" (to be continued......
