Chapter 909, Help me collect cultural relics
Lilith stood up and walked to the window, and saw Wu Heng and Xiao Xiao standing in the courtyard, explaining to their housekeeper.
"I asked them to come over. He can just teleport here from now on. It's easy to attract attention if he stays outside all the time." Lilith said.
The butler turned his head and glanced, then bowed and replied, "Yes, Miss."
Lilith said to Wu Heng: "Come in and wait in the living room for a while."
Wu Heng entered the room, Xiao Xiao sat casually on the sofa, picked up the remote control, turned on the TV, and played a cartoon.
More familiar than my own home.
Wu Heng whispered, "Don't make it look like your own home."
"It's okay, my sister allowed me to do that." Xiaoxiao said directly.
The butler brought tea and cakes, and Lilith came down from upstairs and sat down aside.
"According to Xiao Xiao, this archaeological excavation was not going well?"
"There were some dangers on the road, but fortunately nothing happened and we successfully found the location of the ruins." Wu Heng said with a smile.
"Tell me what you encountered." Lilith continued to ask.
Wu Heng picked up the tea and took a sip, then gave a brief account of the dangers he had encountered along the way.
There were members of the association participating in this archaeological excavation, so the process and results cannot be concealed.
After listening to this, Lilith continued to ask: "Is the man guarding the ruins of the same race as you?"
"The hair color is the same, but he has three eyes." Wu Heng said with a smile.
This matter cannot be acknowledged yet.
Once the archaeological team finds records about another world, or directly records information that can travel between the two worlds, and they say they are a race, it will be easy for people to associate them with that world.
Although the possibility is small, it is better to be cautious.
"Yes." Lilith nodded and continued, "Is that weapon a rare item?"
"I feel like it should be a rare item."
"Let me see!"
Wu Heng took out the bronze spear.
After taking a look at it, Lilith returned it to him and said, "The association can help you experiment with the effects and side effects of the artifacts. This will be safer for you, but the disadvantage is also obvious. The characteristics will be recorded and can be easily revealed."
Strange items are as important as skills, and are used as trump cards at critical moments.
Naturally, the fewer people know about it, the better.
Wu Heng smiled and said, "I already have some clues. I can experiment it myself."
"Don't be too brave. The side effects of magical objects may be fatal. You may not be afraid because you are a hero, but some side effects may harm people around you." Lilith warned.
"As you know, I have also done some research on strange machines, so there is no problem in experimenting with strange objects."
Lilith nodded, "As long as you have confidence."
After talking about archaeology, Wu Heng brought the topic back to the purpose of this trip. "Chief, do you know the new flag bearer from Treasure Island?"
"Elinor is one of the earliest elders in the association. He is very serious about his work. He came to visit me when I went to the island." Lilith said the other person's name directly.
Wu Heng said: "Yesterday, I found that the association issued a notice. One of the development directions issued by the flag bearer is to allow associations in various parts of the Emerald Sea to issue inspection permits to private vessels and have law enforcement rights at sea."
"I know about this," Lilith said.
Wu Heng's eyes narrowed, somewhat surprised by this answer.
Lilith continued, "He came to me and told me about this before the announcement. Associations from all over the country have spent a huge amount on cruises in recent years, and only Treasure Island can maintain this expenditure normally, so he plans to use this method to reduce consumption at sea."
Wu Heng raised his eyebrows. There was a legitimate reason for this.
He said directly: "Treasure Island's cruising range has been expanding. Reducing their investment in this area can also coordinate with the navies of various places. This method of directly issuing licenses will become more chaotic over time and cultivate a new type of pirates."
"He promised to strengthen management. Now he is the flag bearer of Emerald Sea and has his own ideas. We should let him try." Lilith said with a smile, "Besides, there are two of us in Emerald Sea. How many people do you think dare to act too recklessly?"
Seeing that Lilith had said so, Wu Heng said, "Then let him try first."
“Well, you are the leader, and you should allow your subordinates to try some things.” Lilith was like a senior in the workplace, quietly guiding them with her experience.
Wu Heng glanced at her and said, "I just became a hero. Chief, please lend me some men. I don't have many people under my command."
Lilith rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're causing trouble everywhere. I don't dare to lend it to you."
The two chatted for a while, and then Lilith and Xiaoxiao started playing games.
Wu Heng then left the mansion.
……
Return to the Island Owner's Mansion.
Wu Heng called Xi Lagui.
After the call was connected, Wu Heng repeated Lilith's words in full.
Xi Lagui said: "It seems that he is well prepared. No wonder he is so tough."
Wu Heng said: "Leader Lilith's idea is to let him try it first, and then cancel it if the effect is not good."
"Things like this will be very troublesome once they start to go in a bad direction." Xilagui sighed and continued, "We can only wait and see. No one can say for sure whether this direction is correct."
"Yeah!" Wu Heng nodded.
Then, Shi Yali's voice came from the other side, "Wu Heng, will you come to my house for dinner tonight?"
Wu Heng smiled and said, "I won't go over for dinner, but I'll stay at your place tonight."
"That's fine." Shi Yali agreed readily.
Xi Lagui said, "Okay, I'll hang up first. We'll talk when you come in the evening."
"it is good!"
After hanging up the phone, Wu Heng was still thinking about this matter.
Xilagui's worries are not justified. Once such licenses are issued and strictly supervised, there shouldn't be any problems in the short term.
Over time, this privilege becomes difficult to control.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
There is a high probability that a new breed of licensed pirates will emerge.
Instead of flying a pirate flag, hold a license.
But what Lilith said also made sense. Some things should be implemented and then corrected. We cannot completely prevent the other party from trying and directly reject their ideas.
After all, the flag bearer has been replaced.
I thought about it in my mind, but didn't think too much about this issue.
He released the teleportation spell and left again, heading to the remaining factories to check the equipment and see if there were enough materials.
……
At dusk, Wu Heng came back from outside.
The family sat at the dining table and had dinner.
Andwier said, "Master, the statistics on electric lights have come out. All shop owners have agreed to use electric lights. Now we just have to wait for the price. Sister Shannella and I have discussed it and decided to charge 65 copper coins per kilowatt-hour. Treasure Island has a short dark time, which is completely within the affordability of the shops."
Electric lights will definitely be installed, and charges will be based on usage.
If you don't agree, you can just not use it. The shop owners are not stupid, so naturally no one will object openly.
As for the electricity charges, the power plant has little loss and the charges cannot be too high.
The price is about the same.
"Okay, let's implement it tomorrow and light up several major commercial streets as soon as possible." Wu Heng agreed immediately.
"it is good!"
Had dinner.
Wu Heng used teleportation magic and headed to the residence of the elf sisters.
……
The next day, in the morning.
Xiaoxiao came back from Lilith's residence, and Wu Heng took the three ghosts to the zombie world.
The other end is still the prison's monitoring room.
Xiaoxiao and Benny went to check the zombies in the prison and confirmed that none of them had been upgraded.
Wu Heng called Li Yahong. After two rings, the phone was connected. The person on the other end said, "I called you yesterday, but the call didn't go through."
"What's wrong?" Wu Heng asked.
"Qi Hancai sent over a lot of gold bricks, and I wanted to notify you to come and pick them up!"
"Exchanged?"
"I heard that it was the metal-powered person in Mexico who collected them from vaults in various places. She can open the vaults directly." Qi Hancai replied.
"It's really a good skill." Wu Heng sighed.
Before, I never thought about the use of the Mexican survivor's special ability, but now it seems to be very useful.
"I'll get it when I have time." Wu Heng said, and then continued, "How is the skeleton learning to build a database going? Can it be completed independently now?"
"It should be almost done. We can build our own database by cooperating with the corresponding service areas." Li Yahong said with confidence.
It seems that this matter has been arranged properly.
"Help me prepare the service area, and I'll take it all away when the time comes."
"Okay!" Li Yahong agreed.
Wu Heng thought for a moment and continued, "Oh, right, help me collect some cultural relics, which are ancient artifacts and some textual items recorded on stone tablets and slabs."
"Cultural relics? What do you need them for?"
