The world enters the age of mythology.

Lu Yiming was surprised for a while. The time the other party said was three years ago, which just happened to correspond, indicating that the probability of the other party lying was not high.

At that point in time when the Nozomi and the Sea of ​​Clouds met.

Another Xia Kingdom fleet encountered the giant tortoise civilization.

"Why are there eight refuges? Could it be the refuges at the headquarters? Impossible, if it is the headquarters, the number of refuges is too small. The headquarters has a population of at least 300 million!"

"The eight shelters have a population of 80, maybe even more!"

After hearing this conversation, the members of the think tank in the rear were so happy that they died.

There is nothing better than hearing that one of your kind is still alive!

Although the news was three years ago, it is a bit outdated.

One of the members of the think tank said: "I understand why there are eight refuges! Our Yunhai was the first batch to enter Yanghe, and it was the vanguard. Our original mission was to obtain more information and confirm After we are safe, the large troops will enter the Yang River in order."

"However, after we entered Yanghe, we lost contact with the headquarters."

"The people at the headquarters are not fools, and they also know that a series of accidents will occur after entering Yanghe in a large shelter, so they simply thought of a way to join multiple shelters to enter together. Therefore, these eight shelters started It is likely to be together, rather than gathered together later."

This is quite possible.

"Did the giant tortoise civilization lie?" It was Colonel Shi Dayong who spoke.

"Probably not. He said this calmly. It shows that they did not have a conflict at the beginning, otherwise he would not be so confident. On the other hand, according to our observation, the other party did trade these second-hand goods peacefully. "

"But, how should we find them?" Someone asked, "Is it okay to use the pathfinding function of the miniature camera?"

Another expert said: "It's difficult, it's very difficult! God knows where they went. The camera's wayfinding ability is to judge the source of an item through the smell of it. Even if we buy items that our compatriots have used, we can only We can find the earth that used to be. Because most of the items in the shelter have their roots in the earth.”

"Which world they went to now, we don't know..."

The earth is still under heavy rain. This rainstorm has not been tens of thousands of years, and it will never stop, so it is meaningless to go back.

Moreover, there is no longer any land on the earth, and there may be various monsters haunting it. It is impossible to be better than the current world.

Where these compatriots have gone is a big problem.

"It would be great if we could find them!"

Possibly 80 people!

If it is possible to find so many compatriots, it will definitely be a huge harvest for the capital of the sea of ​​clouds.Each shelter brings a large number of experts and many high-quality people.

These populations have been carefully selected so that they can take on the heavy responsibility of restarting civilization.

Chapter 615 Studying with Xuanwu

If these 80 people join the Capital of the Sea of ​​Clouds, it will not only solve the problem of underpopulation, but also increase the fertility rate!

The newly added population has a stable environment, their living conditions become richer, and their willingness to have children will definitely be higher than that of the original common people.

It can also dilute a considerable number of immigrants!

The cultures of the two sides are of the same origin, and there will be no major immigration problems at all.After all, the general thinking of the people is that they are compatriots of the Xia Kingdom. We are originally from the same country, and it is naturally a good thing that the population is more prosperous.

"Assuming that the fleet has 80 people, plus the current 32 in the capital of the sea of ​​clouds, it will be 112 million people! With an annual birth rate of 3%, there will be more than 3 more children a year. This population size is quite impressive! "

"More scientific researchers join in, and the speed of scientific research will be further accelerated!"

With the addition of various ancient civilizations, the background of the capital of the sea of ​​clouds has increased rapidly, but more problems have also appeared. There are too few high-end scientific research workers.There are many supernatural phenomena, and there is no human research. In fact, these items have the potential to be tapped and developed...

With this in mind, Lu Yiming implicitly indicated that he wanted to buy some items from his compatriots.

Either way, it's worth a try.

This is not a big deal, the giant turtle readily agreed.

"No problem, just some old machines..." Zhang Chengxiang stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"Can you tell me about the living conditions of that technological civilization? To tell you the truth, we and that technological civilization probably escaped from the same world." Lu Yiming asked again. Anyway, the Giant Turtle couldn't have predicted it. They have the idea of ​​looking for their compatriots.

"They... can be regarded as a relatively powerful civilization." Prime Minister Zhang paused and told the scene at that time.

In fact, it was a very ordinary encounter.

The two parties approached each other cautiously, guarding each other, and after some transactions, they left each other.

"...The opponent's boat is very big, and it is covered with a layer of bark. At first glance, I thought it was a boat made of wood. This layer of bark should be some camouflage."

"...We had a friendly exchange between the two sides."

"But the opponent's soldiers are indeed not very strong, not as powerful as yours."

What Prime Minister Zhang meant was that the two sides once had a friendly "discussion", but the technological civilization was actually defeated, and the soldiers of the other side were not very capable of individual combat.

Lu Yiming sighed, this fleet is not doing well!

In fact, even if the Hope once encountered the giant tortoise civilization, its individual combat capability is not as good as that of the giant tortoise civilization.Hope has mastered psionic skills, but the mental strength of a single individual is only 3000, which is not too high.

Those who do well like them are always in the minority.

……

In the ensuing negotiations, the visiting group of the giant tortoise civilization finally made up their minds.

They want to survive here long term!

Boarding inspection or something... Well, come to think of it, it doesn't matter at all!

Even the young emperor realized that given the huge gap in strength between the two sides, it was impossible for the giant tortoise civilization to fight against all civilizations, and there was no way to subvert the rules here. If you want to live here for a long time, you must compromise.

Who wouldn't want to have a place of residence?

And they have a big appetite. If they want to buy, they have to buy a big island!

100 square kilometer!

This is also the largest island near the central island. The forest covers a high area and the soil is fertile. There is also a small fish farm nearby, which can catch many fish.

There are a total of 5 people in their giant tortoise country, which is not a lot.In the case of still being rich, buying a larger land is the most important thing.

What if more civilizations come in the future, maybe the land supply will become tense?

Lu Yiming was also surprised when he heard such a big deal. He didn't expect the Giant Turtle Civilization to have such a big appetite, but he was overjoyed. The more land the other party bought, the more they paid.

These are all earned for nothing, and if you don’t earn, you don’t earn for nothing!

He quickly summoned a professional negotiating team to talk to these visiting messengers.

The entire negotiation process took three full days.

The two parties come and go, and the whole process of intrigue does not need to be said.

Lu Yiming is not good at business content, and he didn't participate in the negotiation in person. He just listened in and watched them haggle over every detail. He was also exhausted and nearly fell asleep several times.This kind of long-term negotiation is too painful, it is even more tiring than becoming a ceramic giant.

The giant tortoise civilization has a rich background. All kinds of miscellaneous supernatural items are mostly purchased from other civilizations, such as spiritual rice, silkworm silk, etc. The quality is not too high, but the output is large and there are many varieties.

But an island of [-] square kilometers is not a small amount, and the real heritage must be consumed before it can be purchased.

So they surrendered a total of 83, valuable supernatural items! 83. Well, while most of the items are not worth much, the quantity more than makes up for the quality.

In order to buy this island, in addition to all kinds of messy supernatural items, Giant Turtle Civilization sold two giant tortoises, one male and one female, and a ready-made turtle boat!

Plus 100 places to learn from the psychic beast Xuanwu!

For them, the number of places to study is the biggest hole card and the most precious heritage.

The giant tortoise civilization guarantees that one hundred people will be able to learn extremely valuable supernatural knowledge from Xuanwu.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief until the negotiation was completed.

While the giant tortoise was satisfied, he was also slightly pained.They even sold two giant tortoises and one turtle boat. Can you not feel pain?

"Prime Minister, how can we sell our heritage. The places to learn from Xuanwu?" The young emperor was a little dissatisfied at the same time, "and directly sold a hundred places! Even we don't have so many celestial masters here! "

Zhang Chenglian hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, it is not so easy to learn from Xuanwu. Out of a hundred places, only one or two, or even none, can be achieved in the end. You also know the difficulties. Our giant tortoise For so many years in the country, thousands of babies are born every year, and these babies have been tested for their qualifications."

"But in the end, only 5 celestial masters have been produced in so many years. So one hundred places sounds like a lot, but it is not the case. If the children in the capital of the sea of ​​clouds fail to study, it has nothing to do with us. On the contrary, it can save a lot of money cost……"

When Prime Minister Zhang said this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "An island is really too expensive. Even if we have accumulated it for so many years, it seems to be quite difficult. If we can save a fortune, we have to save a fortune. Otherwise, we have to sell a turtle." The boat..."

The larger the island, the more expensive it is. An island of 100 square kilometers, plus the living area of ​​the original giant turtle ship, can accommodate many, many people, 200 million people are possible.The giant tortoise civilization now has only 5 people, and the population has increased by 20 times, and it will take a long time.

It's still worth it.

"And after we buy an island in the future, we have to find a way to trade with this technological civilization for a long time. For example, study qualifications can be sold for a long time... As you can see, many countries here have their own characteristic industries, and ours It is really difficult to find an industry with sufficient advantages.”

Most of the foundations of the giant tortoise civilization were traded from other countries, which is more than enough than the top. Although their national strength is strong, if they want to make real characteristics, they must have a long-term plan.Otherwise, once a large amount of investment goes down, it will not be able to compete with other countries, and it will be miserable.

"One quota is 200 million, which is a very good supplement, and the price may be raised even higher."

"Do you know how much you can buy with 200 million? 100 places, that's 2 million. It's hard for them to learn too much."

Hearing this, the emperor nodded slightly, feeling a little more comfortable in his heart.

He has learned from Xuanwu, but it's a pity... He is a prince, his aptitude is not good, he just can't, he can't learn it, he just can't learn it, this is not negotiable.

The knowledge taught by Xuanwu is too difficult.

He felt a little excited when he thought of the embarrassing scene where the elites sent by the Yunhai were unable to learn the skills of Xuanwu.

Finally able to regain a city!

However, what Prime Minister Zhang said next made him dumbfounded: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing, which is also one of the reasons why we are considering selling the quota. I don't know if we should say it... However, it is time to let you know. "

"What's the matter?"

"Back then, the first emperor paid a huge price to save Xuanwu. You should know about it."

"Nature knows."

"Afterwards, the old tortoise promised to guarantee that my giant tortoise country will be safe and sound. But this guarantee is not indefinite... After all, the lifespan of this divine beast is too long for us to imagine."

"It has lived for a long, long time, and it can live for a longer time. It is impossible to be permanently bound in our giant tortoise country and become a divine beast in our country."

The emperor became nervous: "How long is it promised?"

"Xuanwu's original promise was to protect the Giant Turtle Kingdom until the late emperor passed away...the late emperor also agreed."

"After all, that was the story of 20 years ago. We were in danger at the time. It is already very good that there are divine beasts willing to help us. We can't ask for too much."

"But now, the first emperor has passed away, and the deadline it promised has come. Moreover, this world may really be safe... In this case... Xuanwu's departure is also possible. Look at it now, all Everything about him is lazy, and he doesn't even bother much about the state affairs of our country."

The emperor was dumbfounded.

Their biggest hole card, Xuanwu, has to run!

What is this? !If Xuanwu left the giant tortoise civilization, more than half of their heritage would disappear out of thin air.

Chapter 616 The Turtle Pursuing the Truth

The little emperor's eyes widened, what is this? !

If Xuanwu left the giant tortoise civilization, more than half of their heritage would disappear out of thin air.

Like the Great Jin Kingdom next door, its industrial capacity and population size are not comparable to the Giant Turtle Kingdom, but it has an old dragon king as its trump card.This old dragon worked hard and helped the Great Jin State earn foreign exchange, and his annual salary was nearly [-] million.

If Xuanwu runs away, the gap between the two sides will be evened out.

"Hey, that's the truth! It hasn't left now, just because of the love of a small group of old people. The old man who has been taking care of it has not completely passed away. We have no special reason to let Xuanwu stay." Prime Minister Zhang paused Dun, said in telepathic communication, "So, when it will go, we don't know. It may be a while, or it may only be a year or two."

"Those old people who raised it are gone, and it will definitely go."

"What Xuanwu desires the most is knowledge. It is extremely eager to learn and is eager to learn the truth of this world. Where do we get the truth of the world for it to learn?"

"Maybe one day, it will leave without saying goodbye to pursue its own truth. That's why we consider selling places. Now that we have a stable residence, it is likely to leave in a few years. It can make a little bit, and then Xuanwu is magnanimous, it won't mind these things."

The old white tortoise is indeed very Buddha-natured, and it is not a big problem if he is exploited a bit.

The emperor swallowed a mouthful of saliva, deeply feeling that he was too young!

These ministers are too black-bellied, and now they want to extract the surplus value in this situation!

However, what can be done?

……

"Xuanwu...is it a mythical beast similar to a dragon? What is their true background? Learning from Xuanwu is so expensive, can they really learn something? Are these people talking to the lion?"
