Chapter 207 Jinjiang Exclusive Release
The side hall was silent for a long time before Liu Wenchi spoke in a somewhat dry voice, but with a hint of uncontrollable excitement:
"Are the uses of these things that Master Lu mentioned really so miraculous?"
The others seemed to wake up as well, and immediately asked, "Can that communicator really communicate with people at any distance?"
"A portable space that can pull things out of thin air? Can anyone use it?"
"Can it cool you down and keep you warm just by applying it? Can you let us see it for ourselves?"
“Do boards that can make people fly really exist?”
"There's medicine that can cure terminal illnesses!? Can it cure any terminal illness?"
Zhang Tongzhi also thought of a key supply that hadn't been mentioned. "Master Lu, don't you have any salt?"
Lu Xuan said: "We have salt and sugar, and they are also unlimited commodities."
The others took a breath.
A vital commodity like salt is actually unlimited? Could the person behind Lu Xuan be a major salt merchant?
But they had never heard of any salt merchant being favored by the gods.
"As for the functions of the items, they are all genuine."
Lu Xuan took out several representative products they mentioned, just like when he showed them to the forces in Yangshan County, he put on ice patches and warm patches, and people could try on biological clothing if they wanted to.
There is also the space ring that everyone is most interested in, which also teaches them how to use mental power to store and release items.
Soon the side hall was filled with all kinds of astonishing exclamations.
"This ice patch feels really cool!" Zhao Tongpan touched the ice patch on his forehead and felt as if someone poured a basin of cold water on his head; his whole head was cold.
Zhang Tongzhi touched the biosuit over his outer garment and was equally amazed. "It's so warm! It feels so thin, but it's warmer than a fur cloak."
Liu Zimo was the first one to successfully use his mental power to use the portable space.
Although he had been very calm before, he now showed the curiosity unique to young people, and kept putting away and taking out the teacup in his hand.
Liu Wenchi took in the results of everyone's experiments, but he did not touch these magical things. Instead, he asked Lu Xuan for a nutrient supplement and took a sip.
With just one bite, the stomach, which had slightly digested the food during the conversation, was filled up again.
Lu Xuan handed over the digestive pills he had prepared in advance, and Liu Wenchi, who was almost vomiting, breathed a sigh of relief.
Afterwards, Lu Xuan took out an air conditioner and turned it on.
After the snow melted, the temperature continued to rise, reaching about 15 to 20 degrees during the day and dropping to around 10 degrees at night.
As the heater was turned on, the chilly side hall instantly became warm.
Zhao Tongpan, who was frozen by the ice patch, couldn't help but show a look of relief on his face.
This series of "practices" made all the officials present completely convinced and convinced.
All the doubts in my heart turned into unprecedented consumption enthusiasm.
"We in Luochuan City want all the supplies in Mr. Lu's hands!" Zhao Tongpan said impatiently.
Liu Zimo was more cautious and asked again, "Can I really buy on credit?"
Lu Xuan said, "You can use some gold and silver to pay off the debt, and the rest can be repaid with the subsequent greenhouses. In fact, before coming to Luochuan, I had just left Yangshan County, and there were about 60,000 to 70,000 disaster victims left there. They also bought a lot of supplies from me and built greenhouses."
Lu Xuan gave them a rough idea of the scale of the greenhouses in Yangshan County, the debts, and the repayment period for their reference.
"The greenhouses will be equipped with air conditioning. Not only will they be used for farming, but they will also allow people to live in them when extreme heat or cold strikes again. As long as the greenhouses are large enough, no one will die from heat or cold anymore."
As for cooling or warming products such as ice heating patches, dry ice, and biological clothing, they are also very convenient to use when going out.
Liu Wenchi has always been extremely saddened by the number of casualties in the city. When he learned that the greenhouse could not only provide them with a large amount of food, but also reduce or even completely avoid casualties, he couldn't wait to build the greenhouse immediately.
It’s no big deal to be in debt. Not to mention paying it off within half a year, even if it takes a little longer, one or two years, it will be worth it!
Lu Xuan: "The repayment period is at most six months."
It is hard to say whether there will be new changes in half a year. If it is delayed too long, his profits will fall.
Liu Wenchi asked Lu Xuan about the specific prices of various supplies, and then discussed in a low voice with the others for a while before reporting the material needs of the provincial capital.
Just as Lu Xuan expected, the quantity of essential supplies purchased was basically two to three times that of Yangshan County, and the medicines that had been out of stock in the capital for several months were purchased directly five times the quantity.
Mobile quarantine centers and tents were not purchased much because there was no shortage of houses in the capital.
Then there are the kayaks, hot weapons and other supplies that Lu Xuan intentionally did not mention. These can wait until next time, or it will not be too late to trade them when he comes next time.
The trade in ordinary grain was the goods that Lu Xuan bought from the provincial capital and the output from the fields before he obtained the mutated grain during last year's extremely hot season.
After having the mutated food, I rarely eat these ordinary foods.
Also, because the recycling price is relatively low and there is no recycling, this time it is a good opportunity to clear out the inventory and sell part of it to Luochuan at a low price.
The mutated varieties and seafood have twice the share than Yangshan County, and each type has been traded for 100,000 kilograms.
The other limited-quantity commodities, such as fruits and mushrooms, range from a minimum of 1,800 kilograms to a maximum of several thousand kilograms but not more than 10,000 kilograms.
As for cold weapons and hoverboards, since General Chu was not around and the demand could not be determined, the bulk quantity was put on hold. Liu Wenchi only bought a few hundred pieces for the officials in the prefecture.
Finally, there is the much-anticipated warming deal.
The cost price of the greenhouse also surprised officials such as Liu Wenchi, but Lu Xuan also told them that a yield of 1,000 kilograms per mu was just a conservative estimate. In fact, with sufficient air conditioning and plant nutrient solution, 1,500 kilograms per mu was the minimum.
One kilogram of mutated food can be exchanged for 10 nutritional supplements, which is equivalent to the minimum food intake for one person for a month or thirty people for a day.
Even if the remaining food from paying off the debt is not enough to feed the people in the city, the demand can be reduced tenfold or even more by replacing it with nutritional supplements.
Finally, the city of Fu ordered 10,000 acres of greenhouses.
The reason why it is only twice as much as Yangshan County is not because the demand in the provincial capital is limited, but because the number of seeds is limited.
After the first batch of grain is harvested, the greenhouse can be expanded for the second time.
The cost of greenhouses and other supplies combined requires a total of 13 million kilograms of mutant grain.
Part of it was paid in the form of cloth, spices, gold, silver and other valuable materials.
Most of these precious materials from peacetime lost their use after the city was completely cut off from the outside world, and a lot of them were stockpiled in the city.
There are also taxes that the provincial capital has not had time to pay, which will be used to trade with Lu Xuan this time.
The final remaining debt was exactly 10 million jin, and it was agreed that all of it would be paid off within three collection periods of the greenhouse.
After Chu Ming comes back, there may be some more debt, but that is just a small amount. Whether it is continued to be paid with gold and silver or added to the total debt, it will not affect the repayment period.
Finally, write it down as evidence.
The person who signed the contract was Liu Wenchi, but the party to the transaction was the Luochuan government office.
Zhao Tongpan looked at the stamped document and asked Lu Xuan in an ambiguous tone, "Aren't you afraid that such a large debt might be difficult to collect in the future?"
After all, they have to pay their debts slowly over time, but Lu Xuan wants to take out all the supplies they need at once.
Once these supplies are obtained, most of them will be distributed. Even if Lu Xuan wants to take them back, all the food and supplies have been used up.
To put it bluntly, even if Lu Xuan killed the people, they would not be able to spit out the supplies that had been used up.
Lu Xuan casually put the receipt into his space and said with a smirk, "Which is more profitable, a one-time deal or a long-term transaction? I believe you all should be able to figure it out."
What’s more, Luochuan City is right here, the monk can run away but the temple cannot.
[Blame the anchor? I'm afraid you're just blinded by this.]
[Level 7 Psychic Warning! Mutated Vampire Vine Warning!]
I kind of hope they default on their debt. Then the host will show off his power in the capital, and we'll just have the perfect time to watch the officials kneel down and beg for mercy.
Lu Xuan also deliberately asked: "Do you really want to default on your debt?"
Liu Wenchi shook his head, "Of course not."
Even if they cannot contact the capital now, they represent the face of the government, so how can they go back on their word?
Zhao Tongpan thought that since they hadn't received the goods yet, they would definitely not deny the payment.
Liu Wenchi carefully put the receipt away, then suddenly raised his head as if remembering something and asked, "Can't the healing device that Mr. Lu took out from the clinic be traded?"
Lu Xuan said, "If the prefect wants one, we can trade for one."
In fact, as long as the injury or disease is not fatal, the medicines traded in the government office are sufficient.
The most a therapeutic device can do is to perform a full-body examination to find undetected lesions or diseases that cannot be diagnosed.
Well, it seems that this function is indeed very important.
However, the quantity is limited, and even if it is traded, it is estimated that only a very small number of people will be able to use it.
A home treatment device, one thousand kilograms of mutant food, and energy stones enough to last for three months.
Lu Xuan first took out the space ring or bracelet and the communicator they ordered.
As the leader, Liu Wenchi distributed a communicator to everyone present.
He kept the largest one in his personal space, and the rest, Zhang Tongzhi and Zhao Tongpan, his right-hand men, also received a large one. The experienced and the legal advisor did not need a too big one, an ordinary 100 cubic meters was enough.
Except for fruits, mushrooms and other supplies that have a long shelf life, which were taken out on the spot and put into the space by Liu Wenchi, the rest had to be taken out from the warehouse in the provincial capital.
It just so happened that most of the warehouses in the city were empty, so there was plenty of space.
Zhao Tongpan watched as supplies were continuously taken out of Lu Xuan's house, refilling one empty warehouse after another that was so empty that even a mouse would shake its head if it came in. His eyes couldn't help but glance at the rings and bracelets on his body.
After moving the supplies, it was already very late at night.
Liu Wenchi had Lu Xuan taken to the guest room in the backyard of the government office, and explained that a batch of supplies would be distributed tomorrow. If Lu Xuan was interested, he could go to the gate of the government office to take a look, and then he left.
Lu Xuan casually took out a single leather sofa and sat down by the window. As usual, he calculated today's expenses and gains.
It is easy to calculate your expenses. Just look at how many points are missing from your account.
1.2 billion.
Even though Lu Xuan knew that there would be more income in the future, he couldn't help but be amazed.
As expected, the demand in big cities is huge.
So many points are enough to buy two small city shields and a master-level mecha at the original price.
Fortunately, after spending more than 1.2 billion, the profit is quite substantial.
Taking into account the subsequent announcement from the capital that the scale of the greenhouses will be doubled, a conservative estimate is that this transaction can make him a net profit of more than 2 billion, which is twice that of Yangshan County!
This does not include the other kayaks that Luochuan needs to survive the rainy season and the extreme cold season during the debt repayment period, as well as other supplies to deal with animal attacks.
By then, the total profit will be able to soar further.
Lu Xuan: I just like the feeling of making a lot of money easily, it’s so satisfying!
The audience in the live broadcast room was a little confused.
It is indeed cool to watch the anchors making money like crazy, but if you think about it carefully, what do these points have to do with them?
Even if the anchor earns 10 billion, they can't get even 100 million!
I am envious, of course, but I feel more jealous.
Especially when compared to my own salary of only a few thousand or ten or twenty thousand star coins, I won’t tell you who is jealous QAQ!
[The anchor has earned so many points, shouldn't we celebrate and participate in more prize draws?]
[That's right! I strongly request that the number of lucky draw entries be increased. Look, the number of online participants has been increasing, but there are still only tens of thousands of entries. How can that be enough? We need to increase it to at least six figures!]
Lu Xuan corrected: "To be precise, it's the profit in the next six months, not the profit that has already been made."
[It's all set in stone. There will be no difference between now and six months later!]
[Add more lucky draw spots! Plus plus plus!]
【If you don’t add us, we’ll make a scene! 】
Lu Xuan said: "Okay, I'll give you some."
After going to two places, he negotiated a big deal with a net profit of more than 3 billion. Lu Xuan was in a very happy mood at the moment, and was more tolerant of these poor little guys who could only eat nutritional supplements for three meals a day.
"But I can't add it until I get back."
The remaining mutant food and other supplies he had on hand had to be kept for trading with other gathering places and definitely could not be used for the lottery.
The audience expressed understanding of this.
It would be fine as long as it can be increased in the future, at least to allow these unlucky people to increase their chances of winning even... by one in ten thousand, it's so sad.
After barely calming down the restless audience, Lu Xuan did not go into the house to sleep, but continued to sit by the window and opened the window, which was only a crack, a little further.
[Is the host still awake? Don't you have to get up early tomorrow to watch the government distribute supplies?]
[Looking for scenery? The government office's courtyard is bare, nothing much to see.]
Lu Xuan said meaningfully: "It's not much to watch, but it's worth listening to."
Live audience: What are you listening to?
They pricked up their ears and listened for a while, but heard nothing.
Lu Xuan did not answer them, but strengthened his hearing and used his amplification ability to further improve his sensitivity.
Soon, the sound of conversation in a room two yards away slowly drifted into my ears.
·
In Liu Wenchi's study.
On the desk was a fruit plate that Liu Wenchi had the servants cut.
The officials in the prefecture picked their favorite fruits and tasted them. They were immediately amazed by the crispy, sweet and delicious taste.
“So sweet!”
"It's so sweet and crunchy. I've never tasted such delicious fruit."
"Not only that, but also winter melon, peaches, tangerines, rambutans, and even this red fruit called strawberry... They don't look like they would grow at the same time. I guess it's because of the greenhouse that they can grow at the same time."
"Not necessarily. Isn't it said that portable spaces can keep things fresh? Maybe they were harvested a while ago and left for a few months before they were taken out."
"No matter which one it is, it means that Master Lu is very powerful."
The fruit plate was quickly emptied. Zhang Tongzhi pursed his lips with a reluctant look, and his wrinkled face seemed to relax as if nourished by the juicy fruit.
"With the supplies provided by Master Lu, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief, and the people can have more food to eat."
Liu Zimo said, "Many people in the city know that the clinic has no medicine, so even if they are sick, they refuse to seek medical treatment. If they don't receive treatment, delaying treatment may endanger their lives. When we notify the people to collect supplies tomorrow, we must remind them to go to the clinic as soon as possible."
They finally saw a glimmer of hope, and if casualties continued to occur because of these problems that could only be solved instinctively, it was definitely not the situation they wanted to see.
Liu Wenchi also agreed: "Okay."
"But then again, the supplies in Mr. Lu's hands are truly amazing. Your Excellency the Prefect, do you think he was really sent by a god?" Li Jingli couldn't help but say.
If they were not gods, it would be impossible to explain the origin of those materials that were obviously not ordinary things.
Master Sun, who rarely spoke, was a little worried: "And the greenhouse's output, I wonder if it's really as high as he said."
I had only heard before that the per-acre yield in the wealthy areas of Jiangnan could reach 500 to 600 kilograms, but Lu Xuan actually said it was 1,500 kilograms.
Master Sun couldn't even imagine what a shocking sight that would be.
Zhang Tongzhi chuckled and said, "Didn't Master Lu say that these mutant varieties can be harvested quickly? In less than two months at most, we'll know the yield."
If the output is not satisfactory at that time, I think the prefect will renegotiate the amount of debt with Lu Xuan and will not let the government suffer a big loss.
Others had similar thoughts.
However, when everyone else was delighted with the supplies they had just received and marveled at the portable space and other magical artifacts, Zhao Tongpan suddenly said, "Lu Xuan is wearing a lot of rings and bracelets. There may be more that he hasn't revealed to others, and there may be a lot of supplies that he hasn't taken out yet."
The study room, which had been quite lively a moment ago, suddenly became quiet.
