I handed in the sand sculpture through the book system

A flash of light flashed, and several containers appeared for no reason on the open grass.

Even though such a scene has been experienced several times in the past month, every time he witnesses this miracle that cannot be explained by science, Li Ziwen can't help feeling fluctuating in his heart.He took a long breath, reached out to take the report form from the secretary beside him, and pulled out the pen to sign.

Since Muchen expanded the transportation limit of the time-space gate with points, the transaction between the modern society and the world in the book has initially been on the right track.Although so far, this kind of trade has been limited by the volume of transportation and is still narrow and single in scale, the two worlds inside and outside the book communicate with each other and still obtain benefits that they could not dream of.Modern society paid a little bit of material and technology in exchange for extremely precious and rare mineral deposits, extinct species of various colors, and even various cultural relics that cannot be calculated in value; while the benefits of the Middle Ages were incomparable-they just A little natural resource was delivered, but what was exchanged was the rarest seed of industrial civilization.

Since several world wars, there are only a handful of powerful countries that have been lucky enough to leap from agriculture to industrial civilization, and each of them has paid a terrible price.Let’s not talk about the rest, just think about the blood that was shed by the great eastern countries for industrialization in the past 200 years. If you can lie down like this and be brought into the industrial revolution by golden thighs, it will make other civilizations feel jealous. lucky.

Because the resources in the Middle Ages were so rare, every time the two parties handed over materials, they could almost accurately pinpoint the pain points of the needs of modern society.Li Ziwen only looked up a little, and he could see that the road outside the lawn was already crowded with cars and trucks, and the license plates ranged from Mining Group, Natural Research Institute to History Institute.However, all domestic units with a bit of a reputation have racked their brains to establish a relationship with the emergency team, striving to get the most out of the water, and to cut the largest piece of cake under their instructions.

Li Ziwen looked around and couldn't help but sigh slightly, feeling that the documents in his hands were getting hot gradually.For more than a month, the relationship between the emergency team and Mu Chen has been close and harmonious; but now that the situation has changed, their biggest headache is how to balance the water between the various units...

He squinted his eyes, and finally opened the order and began to review the contents of this exchange.Since the discussion in the previous meeting, the Middle Ages Advisory Group has also established a practice in transportation, which is nothing more than out-of-print national treasures, various extinct animals and plants, and precious minerals with rhenium as the core...

Li Ziwen looked down, and suddenly frowned.

He pondered for a moment, then raised his hand to summon the mining secretary, and handed over the report.

"'High-grade gold ore'?" He lowered his voice: "Why is there gold ore in the shipment? How did they waste their energy on gold ore?"

I am afraid that this is the first time since the beginning of the world that gold mining can be associated with "waste".But Li Ziwen took it for granted, and the people next to him were not surprised at all.The mining secretary was a little surprised. After receiving the declaration, he thought carefully for a moment before finally answering softly:

"Director Li, this gold mine was originally a sample sent by the consultant team over there after testing. The gold is not surprising, but it should be accompanied by relatively high-purity platinum, rhodium and palladium..."

Li Ziwen's face changed slightly.Although he was born in physics and is not considered a professional, he has been dealing with industry for a long time and knows the value of these three metals.The status of platinum, rhodium and palladium in the field of fine chemical catalysis is almost irreplaceable, but these three are rare treasures whose crustal content is less than one ten-millionth.The domestic chemical industry is developing rapidly, and the demand for this type of metal is even greater. Every year, every year, we do everything possible to go abroad to collect resources.

If there is a high-grade platinum group mineral deposit, it can already change the chemical market of the whole world.Even if the gold mine is compared with it, it can only be mediocre

...Of course, how can an ordinary gold mine have such rare associated metals, then you have to ask the system's thinking.

Li Ziwen pondered for a while, and immediately signed his name.When handing back the document, he smiled wryly again:

"The annual output of rhodium is only over [-] tons. If it is really a large-scale rhodium mine, I am afraid it will soon attract attention."

The secretary next to him remained silent, and also hissed softly.

Of course, what Li Ziwen said was not aimless—for more than half a month, the National Mining Group obtained dozens of tons of rhenium ore from the Middle Ages, and stepped up its horsepower to start smelting and refining.Originally, the operation had been tried to keep secret, but the refining of rhenium ore required a lot of rare special equipment. After the expansion of the scale, the demand for equipment changed, and the news was quickly detected by the West.

Of course, the western spy network was hit hard before, and they didn't know the news of the space-time exchange for the time being, but this didn't prevent them from reasoning a little bit, linking the inexplicable rhenium ore boom in the big eastern country with the equally weird and unpredictable Mu Chen.And once he guessed the news about Mu Chen and the rhenium mine, the potential benefits were so attractive, he couldn't help but make a move.

The secretary was silent for a moment, and finally managed to speak.

"It's just a rumor." He comforted, "The Cyberspace Administration of China will have a solution."

Li Ziwen smiled and said nothing, but secretly shook his head in his heart.Of course, what the secretary said was right—so far, the Western offensive is indeed just a "rumor."They learned from their previous mistakes, and instead organized the navy to spread all kinds of rumors faintly related to Mu Chen on the Internet.However, this kind of ant colony attack that was broken down into parts made it very difficult for the relevant departments. They have organized many clean-up operations, but the water army seems to have intelligence technology support behind them, and only ignorant shrimps can be caught.

The advantage of cyber navy tactics lies in its concealment. The information center has been busy for several days, but until now no direct evidence of Western involvement in incitement has been found.The Yankees were reckless, and even called to express their "condolences". The words were yin and yang, implying that the Eastern technology was backward, so it was better to hand over Mu Chen to them for "protection".Although the Ministry of Foreign Affairs turned back, it was also provoked into anger, turned around and exerted strong pressure on the information center.

... But the West is prepared, and the rumors may not be resolved in a short time.

When Li Ziwen thought about this, he couldn't help but sighed slightly.He waved for the secretary to take away the documents, and then took out the mobile phone in his pocket.The naval tactics are not only to confuse public opinion and disrupt order, but the more sinister intention is to provoke confrontation—once he sees rumors and rumors about himself on the Internet, one can imagine the irritation he will suffer. Create estrangement.For this reason, the emergency team received a temporary order, requiring them to always pay attention to online public opinion and prepare targeted plans.

Li Ziwen swiped open the screen, clicked into Weibo, and clicked on the little v he followed.Judging from the content of the account, this little v seems to be just taking pictures of flowers and grass and pets every day, and occasionally reposts a rumor that has something to do with Mu Chen.However, the information center conducted investigations for many days and believed that this account should be an important organizer of the naval incident, and it may even be directly linked to the intelligence organization behind the scenes... It's just that the other party has taken sufficient precautions technically, and no conclusive evidence can be found for the time being.

The screen automatically refreshed, and the content posted by this account five seconds ago popped up.Li Ziwen opened it casually, and found that it was a file with a strange name, and the file was huge, with a total of five or six hundred megabytes...

Li Ziwen was puzzled, and instinctively clicked the download button (anyway, the mobile phone is specially equipped, and there is no virus intrusion).The base network was specially accelerated, and it was downloaded in less than a few seconds and opened automatically.Li Ziwen glanced up, almost unable to hold the phone:

"--what?!"

After reaching a simple consensus with King Qi, Du Heng and Yi Cheng returned south with Yuan An, the northern envoy, and crossed the Yangtze River within two days.

Although Yuan An was sent as an envoy by the imperial order, his identity was extremely complicated and embarrassing—it was noon when the capital of the Northern Dynasty was bombed, and the palace was clearly visible at a glance, and he was frightened into a mess in an instant, and there was almost a palace riot on the spot .One day later, the chaos calmed down a bit, but all the nobles became frightened, and their attitude towards Nanchao had changed drastically, and they were all regarded as untouchable monsters and ghosts.So they shied away from each other for a few days, and then they chose Yuan'an, a side branch of the clan, as the scapegoat.Panicked, the court situation was chaotic, and even the imperial decree of appointment did not go through formal procedures.

Considering that the identity of the arrival is so delicate, for the sake of equal status, King Hengyang did not summon the envoy at the first time, but sent an advisory group to connect with him.The two sides met in a manor outside Jiankang City. After exchanging pleasantries, they got straight to the point and began to discuss the basic principles of North-South relations.

Generally speaking, this meeting was quite efficient, and it was so efficient that it greatly exceeded the expectations of the envoys.

Before the king of Hengyang sent a letter to the emperor of the Northern Dynasty, he kept saying in the letter that "China is Zhengshuo" and "returning to unity". Such wording once made the monarchs and officials of the Northern Dynasty furious and difficult to contain.Even with the threat of that horrible and weird explosion, it is really hard to back down.When Yuan An was ordered to go on an envoy this time, he was originally worried about how to deal with such requests, but the subordinate officials who came to receive them never mentioned anything. They only discussed the technical issues of border exchanges after the withdrawal of the Northern Dynasties.Yuan An was greatly surprised by the fact that the subordinate officials were extremely pragmatic in their speech.

——Originally when he heard that the capital city was attacked by some kind of "thunder law" that fell from the sky, he thought it was Zhang Jiao and Sun En's sorcery to deceive people. With such coping skills, the so-called "King of Hengyang" is probably not an ordinary person.

Thinking of this, Yuan An thought about what he had seen along the way—tens of miles away from Jiankang, rice paddies were flourishing with rice seedlings, farmers shuttled back and forth to arrange their farm tools everywhere, and occasionally men and women sang loudly, singing to each other, the singing was extremely joyful.Although he didn't know much about farming, he could tell how comfortable he was by hearing the voice.The so-called benevolent government practiced by the king and sung by the common people is nothing more than the ancient rule of the world!

But last year, after the civil strife in the Southern Dynasties, Fang Yin and the Jiankang military disaster, can there be such a world?

Yuan An's heart was shaken, and he felt more and more that the Southern Dynasty should not be underestimated, and hostility is definitely not the best policy.With this thought in his mind, he didn't dare to care too much about the details.So the two sides quickly reached an agreement and drew up a military draft.

·

Seeing the envoy signing the peace treaty, Xiang Liang and Bei Yan exchanged glances, and ordered the guards to quickly send the peace treaty to the city, and the king of Hengyang would seal it after approval.And the two of them stood up from the long table, exchanged greetings with the Northern Dynasty envoy with a smile, then turned around and took out a thick booklet and put it on the table.

"I heard from Yi Cheng that King Qi of your dynasty is quite sincere and is willing to befriend and communicate with each other. This meaning coincides with that of our Highness." Bei Yan took a step forward and pushed the brochure towards Yuan'an with a smile. : "We felt this, so we specially wrote this thing, and asked the envoy to take a look."

Yuan An took it over and took a look, and immediately felt buzzing in his head.He read it carefully several times before he finally managed to recognize the title of the pamphlet.

"North-South-North-South Trade-Integration Declaration?" Yuan An stuttered: "Dare to ask, dare to ask Your Excellency, this is—what does this mean?"

"It's not interesting." Bei Yan said it seems to be calm: "It's just that we have discussed many times and found that there is a gap between the two countries. It is very inconvenient for businessmen to trade, so I hope to make some adjustments."

Yuan An opened his mouth slightly.He probably understood these few words, but it was precisely because he understood that he was even more horrified—the so-called farming is the first, and business is the last.Over the past dynasties, it has become an unshakable national policy to emphasize agriculture, suppress business, and emphasize capital and end.How can a mere business matter be included in this elegant hall of dialogue between the two countries?

Is the Southern Dynasty so frivolous? !

Looking at Yuan An in shock, Bei Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and then smiled again:

"The envoys don't need to worry." He said in a calm voice, "It's just that we listened to the opinions of several great merchants and felt that it would be quite beneficial for the north and the south to communicate with each other..."

After finishing speaking, he lightly clapped his hands, and a terrified pale man came out from behind, standing respectfully with his arms crossed, his expression trembling.Yuan An just looked up and immediately recognized the person coming.Thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help laughing.

"Guo Zhao!" Yuan An said with a smile, "So it's you, old boy—how much did you spend in the Southern Dynasties to get into this position?"

After finishing speaking, he winked his eyes, his expression narrowed, but the meaning behind his words could not be more obvious: This "one-body declaration" is probably made by the giant businessman Guo Zhao for the convenience of doing business.After all, it's probably just an extra head for the officials of the palace to make money...

But it's really strange, Guo Zhao was cast aside by him, but he didn't feel the joy of his plan succeeding at all. Instead, he went against the norm and shivered again and again.

Although Shangjia is a trivial matter, since Guo Zhao has spent money, Yuan An can't take Nan Chao's face too much.He opened the booklet with a smile and asked:

"May I ask you, what is the meaning of this declaration of integration?"

Bei Yan replied with a smile: "It's easy to say. We have heard many businessmen talking about the complicated procedures for the north-south exchange and various border taxes, which is extremely inconvenient. For the sake of friendship between the north and the south, we might as well make an agreement that both sides Exempt from all taxes at the border, simplify procedures as much as possible..."

After that, he flipped open the pamphlet, turned to the "Tariff" chapter, and pointed out the relevant provisions to Yuan An.Yuan An inspected it carefully. Although he did not understand what this "tariff" was after much deliberation, he looked around and found that the terms were full of "voluntary" and "conscious", and all the rules and regulations emphasized the "equality" of trade between the North and the South. He couldn't see anything wrong... He was slightly surprised in his heart, but he still didn't bother to think about these trivial business matters, so he nodded casually.

Seeing that Yuan An agreed, Bei Yan's smile deepened, and he almost bit his lip to hold it back.He pursed his lips, and said slowly:

"Businessmen come and go for profit. However, the coins in the north and the south are different, and the exchange is troublesome. So we propose that when cross-strait transactions, we might as well use silver and steel for overall accounting. How about that? As for the casting of silver coins and steel coins, we will Fang can also take full responsibility."

Nowadays, fine steel in the north is extremely valuable, and nobles often exchange steel knives for jewelry.Yuan An thought about it for a while, and felt that there was no problem with this matter—it was nothing more than replacing steel knives with steel coins. As for the Southern Dynasty being in charge of casting, it could save a lot of money... He thought about it for about a second, then nodded again .

Bei Yan couldn't help it now.He hurriedly raised his hand to cover his mouth, and let out a few strange coughs.

- No matter how it sounds, it sounds like uncontrollable laughter.

·

Seeing Yuan An's figure disappear into the depths of the manor, Bei Yan sat down slowly and squeezed the text into his hands.

"Okay." He whispered softly: "Now the whole north—is ours."

He leaned back on the seat and looked at Mu Chen who was slowly turning out from behind the screen with a smile.

There was also a smile on Mu Chen's face, as well as vague astonishment.He sat down beside Bei Yan, but his tone was full of exclamation:

"Currency, the market—it's basically the entire economy together—he just handed over the lifeline of the economy without even noticing it... Guess what he's thinking? I just received a report from the guards, saying The ambassador of the Yuan Dynasty asked to see the captured son of the Northern Dynasty, and brought him the letter and clothes of Princess Qi—and, as well as the sachet of the princess of the Northern Dynasty—”

As he spoke, he almost laughed out loud—it was just the letter from Princess Qi, and after the negotiation, he still thought about delivering the boudoir token. It seems that the envoy from the Northern Dynasty was really as white as water, and he didn't use his brain at all to reflect on it. What kind of agreement did you sign?

Of course, Mu Chen selectively ignored the development of economics in the past 1000 years... But it doesn't matter, as long as three or four years pass, the Northern Dynasty will be able to experience the great principle that the economic base determines the superstructure.

Bei Yan then laughed, but gradually became a little puzzled:

"How do you know he sent a sachet?"

No matter how much water the envoys of the Northern Dynasties had in their minds, they wouldn't be able to publicly display such things, right?

Mu Chen snorted and waved his hand, and a few large characters floated out of the sky:

[Crematorium Protagonist Halo]

"Just activated." He sneered: "As long as there is a green tea white lotus who likes him around the hero, the system will automatically turn on this function-this thing is a novice benefit, and it is said that it is considered that newcomers are generally in crematorium literature. It's hard to get along, so the system specially creates a halo for the protagonist. Any cannon fodder who assassinates the protagonist with a vicious mouth and sword will be inexplicably backlashed by his own operations, and he will become a stepping stone for the protagonist..."

Mu Chen paused for a moment - the system gave this kind of thing, nothing more than to instigate himself to be jealous and fight to increase the explosive point.But now that he holds a heavy army in his hands, what harm will he do?Now the situation is different, so this kind of thing is——

"It's useless."

·

Li Ziwen stared at the phone, only feeling that his brain was still shaking.

The downloaded document cover is extremely concise, only the title is flashing:

Yankee Intelligence Annual Summary of Operations

He trembled for a moment, and finally slid the screen slowly.
