Volume 2: Scales in the Pond Chapter 165 New Materials
"Recently, there is something called Huaxian, which seals souls into paper and sells them. It may be related to what happened six years ago. The police are investigating it now. The souls of cats and dogs are sealed in Huaxian, but it is said that someone has bought a sealed human soul before."
Qiao Ji replied and told Qiao Yao the story of the Painting Fairy, but did not mention the ghost soldiers he encountered last night.
It’s not that he wants to have the experience all to himself, but it’s too troublesome.
Find a reason to lure the police over there?
It should be possible. They should be able to find out that the things the ghost soldiers wear are not made in this era. They will pay attention to it, conduct in-depth investigations, and prevent disasters from happening.
Let’s lead people there in the afternoon.
After listening to Qiao Ji's story, Qiao Yao began to think.
"Painting Immortals? This does look a bit like the methods of the Ghost King's Yin Soldiers. Don't get too close to it, and don't buy that for fun."
"The police are investigating. Do you think you can still buy one? I had one before, but I used it for their investigation."
"Give it to me, and let the police investigate. Don't get involved."
This kind of thing will be suppressed quickly if it occurs in China. Unless it happens too suddenly and we are completely unprepared, there is no need to worry.
"Originally, a batch of new supernatural materials was transferred in today. We wanted to see if you could materialize them, but Minister Zhang didn't mention it just now." Qiao Yao suddenly said.
He didn't mention it?
"Then I'll scan it when I send you back later. What is the new material?"
"It's a material called arcane mercury. It can be made into weapons and equipment to increase mental strength. It's a rare material that can be artificially made, but we don't have the technology to do it."
Materials that increase mental strength?
"How much is one gram?"
"Usually, two to three grams of this material are used in one piece of equipment. The price per gram is as high as 20,000 euros, and there is still a shortage of people."
So expensive?
Qiao Yao continued, "But this thing has no spirituality. It's just that the material has a special effect on mental power, so we want to see if you can materialize it."
He lowered his voice and said, "In Oude, the annual output is only about 120 kilograms. If you can materialize it..."
“I understand.”
Just give it to her at a bargain price, right?
Without spiritual substances, it should be possible to replicate it using the training ground, and then produce 200 kilograms a day.
I guess they will yell "I'm so pissed off" when they find out!
At this moment, he thought that, including when they were in Tongshi, the psychics on the helicopter had a very large range of abilities. Maybe they were equipped with such props?
The Yujing Action Team just now had a psychic who used his supernatural power to directly suppress the people in an entire village. In addition to the help of enhanced supernatural powers, he must have also had equipment with amplification made of this material.
"That's right. We are in great need of this kind of materials. Currently, we can only produce a very small number of them. However, the equipment made from these materials can greatly improve the abilities of psychics..."
Qiao Yao paused halfway through his speech, then patted Qiao Ji on the shoulder and said, "If possible, there is no need to produce too much gold. Just make enough money. Increase the production of supernatural materials. We need them right now."
Qiao Ji concealed at least half of his production, but Qiao Yao didn't expose it.
Look at the materials he gave Zhang Jin these two days, all of which were 100 kilograms of supernatural materials and 100 kilograms of gold. That is to say, he concealed at least half of the information, but everyone just had a tacit understanding.
"What is the current situation in the world? Didn't Director Xia at the base say that strange phenomena are frequent in this era? Is the situation not good?"
On the surface, everything seems calm, but there are undercurrents beneath the calm surface.
"The frequency of eruptions has indeed increased a lot in recent years. According to a statement about the sky track in an ancient book unearthed in our country, it is said that prosperity will return. There are similar prophecies in ancient artifacts from other regions, and some even say that the dead will be resurrected."
"The time points predicted by each prophecy are not exactly the same. They are roughly within the past twenty years and the next hundred years, a period of one hundred and twenty years."
Qiao Yao looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window and said, "So many prophecies point to this era. I'm afraid it's not an exaggeration. There are many mysteries of supernatural beings in ancient times that we still haven't figured out."
How come there is still such a great danger in this world?
Resurrection of the dead?
Otherwise, let's blow up the pyramid first. He feels that thing will summon an alien fleet.
"No problem. I will prioritize making supernatural materials from now on."
Let's double the output first.
Ding Dong
The elevator arrived at this floor.
"You're the ones buying the house, right? Hello, hello!"
A fat old man walked in, looked around, and shook hands with Qiao Yao enthusiastically.
He was also in a hurry to sign the contract, so he arrived early.
"Hello."
Because there was no disagreement on the amount, the two sides had a very pleasant conversation and were almost ready to travel together.
The two parties signed the contract. Chen Ping said that it would take some time to transfer the property, and she would find someone to help process it quickly, which would take about a week. After that, they could pay taxes, go through the transfer procedures, and wait for the property certificate.
The payment receipt was made in triplicate, and Qiao Ji kept their copy.
"Brother, this house is yours from now on. Whenever you need to go to the Housing Authority, just call me."
The homeowner opened a drawer and said, "All the keys I had before are here. I was planning to change to a smart lock, but I haven't had time to do that yet. I've also put all the water, electricity and gas bills in here. Take a look."
The rest is between the homeowner and the agent, and they also have to calculate the agency fee.
"Pingping, come to my house and play when you have time."
"Okay, I'll definitely come to attend your and uncle's wedding." Chen Ping followed Lin Weimin's children in calling Lin Xingying aunt.
After everyone had left, the family looked at the big house and found a place to sit down.
"Qiao Ji, lunch break is about to end." Lin Mengfu suddenly reminded.
"You can talk about it later."
"You still have to go to school. You go to school and we'll clean up here." Lin Xingying decided to do some housework.
"Auntie Lin, be careful, this is 400 square meters."
That afternoon off isn't enough for the two of you.
Qiao Yao thought about it and it made sense. How could he clean 400 square meters?
And he didn't want to clean.
"I'll find someone to clean it up, you don't have to worry about it."
Joe Ji has shadow soldiers, and they are the best housekeeping team in the world.
"In that case, let's go back to the base first. I want to see the secret mercury." Qiao Yao suddenly suggested ending the vacation.
"Don't you want to take a break?"
"No." Lin Xingying replied, "Qiao Ji, you don't know that we have long wanted enough secret mercury for research, but unfortunately, even if we come to Yujing, we don't have much."
Lin Mengfu: I always feel like you guys are hiding a lot of things from me.
She couldn't get a word in on these things because she had no idea what they were talking about.
