The next morning, Lu Yao received a call from Situ Manqing, who had not been in touch for a long time.

"Little brother, isn't it because my sister doesn't call you, so you don't know to take the initiative to contact your sister?" Situ Manqing's tone was slightly resentful.

Lu Yao touched his nose and said with a sneer: "Where is Sister Manqing, isn't it because you've been too busy lately, and I'm embarrassed to disturb you." ”

Situ Manqing snorted coldly: "You also know that I've been busy lately, so you don't know how to help me share some work? You can't watch me like a lord and watch a little woman work hard, can you?"

Lu Yao suddenly said with a little emptiness: "I'm not busy getting the best seafood for Sister Manqing, so I can't spare time." ”

"Hmph! I'll let you go this time, but when will you be able to expand my production? Situ Manqing raised his voice and asked.

"This ......"

Lu Yao was a little hesitant for a while, since the last time he transferred more than 100,000 tons of marine life into the inland sea of Fanghu Immortal Island in the waters of the Wa Kingdom, he was actually not worried about not being able to supply the best seafood.

But the problem is that once the supply is released, he doesn't know how to explain the origin of this huge amount of excellent seafood.

If the quantity is small, you can still find a way to fool the past, and if the supply of the quantity is open every day, the discerning person will know that there is a problem.

Lu Yao now secretly asks Duan Haifeng to arrange for his tight-lipped brother to help drive the best seafood to the Manqing Hotel every day, transporting three or four tons at a time, which is almost enough for the hotel to use for a week.

This cycle happened to be the time when the fishing boat came back from going to sea, and for a while, no one suspected that there was a problem with the source of his best seafood.

The only person who can guess some reasons is Min Tao, but he won't stand up and say anything at all, but will try his best to cover up for Lu Yao.

"Alas, forget it, sister won't embarrass you, I'll think of another way. But I have one thing to discuss with you, when do you have time to come to the provincial capital?" Situ Manqing said in a serious tone.

Lu Yao felt a little strange in his heart, and asked curiously: "Sister Manqing, what is the matter with the arrival? Let me be mentally prepared in advance." ”

Situ Manqing's voice said unhurriedly: "Thanks to your superb seafood, Manqing Hotel's business has been very hot recently, and the hotel's reputation has suddenly become big. ”

"I want to take the opportunity to expand the scale of hotel investment and prepare to build a real five-star hotel. ”

"I see. Only then did Lu Yao understand what Situ Manqing was looking for him.

He didn't think about it, nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll go to the provincial capital in two days, just about to take a plane from the provincial capital to Europe, you can stay in the provincial capital for two days, and then come to visit you." ”

Situ Manqing replied quickly: "Then you come early, don't look for another place to live, come directly to my sister's house, no matter how many people you come, my sister can arrange it for you." ”

The reason why Lu Yao didn't go to the provincial capital in advance was because his passport and visa hadn't been processed yet, and he estimated that it would only be a matter of the next few days.

For him, there is not much difference between two days earlier and two days later, anyway, the urgent matters at hand that should be dealt with have been dealt with almost the same, and some of the things that have not been dealt with are some non-urgent matters, and basically there are special people in charge.

Otherwise, what would the professional managers who have spent a lot of money on to do with them? Isn't it just to deal with these trivial chores?

......

......

Lu Yao thought that he was going to go abroad for the next period of time, so he decided to make some preparations in advance and go to Fanghu Immortal Island to refine a few more furnaces of pills.

On the one hand, he kept it for himself, and on the other hand, he used it to help Min Tao exchange some materials and came back, and he also had to try to make more talismans.

Lu Yao was not familiar with refining weapons, and he didn't have heaven and earth spiritual fire in his body, so it was difficult to refine magic weapons with ordinary mortal fire.

Even if it has advanced high technology like the Special Equipment Research Institute of the Military Factory, plus all kinds of spiritual ores and spiritual materials, it is only possible to produce the embryo of the secondary magic weapon alchemy furnace.

It also requires Lu Yao to re-inscribe various runes and absorb a large amount of spiritual energy in order to evolve into a low-level magic weapon.

Therefore, Lu Yao still decided to make more simple and powerful talismans by himself, although most of the talismans are disposable, easy to waste, and a bit extravagant to use.

But in some particularly important times, the role of the talisman is still quite large. Whether it's defending or attacking, it's very useful.

In fact, what Lu Yao wants to make most is the array plate, so that he can arrange the array at any time. Formation is the most profound skill he has studied besides alchemy, and he is a few points more proficient than talisman making.

However, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, the array plate is not so easy to refine, and there are too many heavenly and earthly treasures required, and although Lu Yao asked Min Tao to change a lot of materials from the Special Affairs Bureau, it is not enough to refine a array plate.

The runes are a little simpler, you can use cinnabar to draw on ordinary yellow paper, or you can choose to engrave the runes on jade.

What Lu Yao was going to draw this time was some low-level low-grade attack runes, such as fireball techniques, wind techniques, water archery techniques and other runes.

These are all disposable consumables, it is too wasteful to carve with jade, and he does not have much jade of his own.

Last time, a lot of high-grade gems and jade ore were found from the shipwreck of the cruiser ironclad ship, but unfortunately these were all used by Lu Yao to arrange the Spirit Gathering Array.

Fortunately, he had asked Min Tao to help him exchange a lot of high-quality cinnabar and talisman-making yellow paper from the warehouse of the Special Affairs Bureau, which contained a faint aura, which could increase the success rate of talisman-making and increase the power of runes.

In the Huaxia cultivation world, although the inheritance of cultivation has been lost for a long time, the talisman making technique has occasionally been passed down through different means, and there are a few people in the Special Affairs Bureau who know how to make some simple runes, so it is not difficult to understand that these materials are available.

The Great Returning Pill that Lu Yao used to heal Min Tao last time caused a sensation in the Special Affairs Bureau, and compared to the Pei Yuan Pill that improved his cultivation, this kind of Great Returning Pill that could save his life at a critical moment was more popular.

It's just that the amount of elixir that Min Tao exchanged for in the Donghai City Special Affairs Bureau was too much, and the elixir was already in short supply, so he called and asked the teacher if he could exchange something else?

Lu Yao asked him to change some of the materials used in the talisman, which happened to be used now.

The finest cinnabar contains a faint aura, with the finest yellow paper and a talisman pen made of the hair taken from the body of the half-demon weasel more than a hundred years old with the spirit bamboo as the pen tube.

Although it was slightly inferior to the set of magic talisman pens used by Lu Yao to make talismans before, it was still more than enough to use as an entry-level person.

The most important thing is that Lu Yao can use the lake water containing spiritual energy to concoct cinnabar to maximize the success rate of talisman making.

Therefore, in addition to the first few pieces of rune paper when he tried to draw the pen, he later made nearly a hundred pieces of various talismans in one go, and then stopped.
