Chapter 322 "The law cannot be spread lightly"
Li Xiang stayed with Chiba Xuexu for four or five days and gave him a large amount of spiritual medicine. He set out again, passing through Siberia, visited the little golden tiger's family, left some elixirs, and then went to the North American continent via the Bering Strait and Alaska.
He plundered North America again, and the supplies he obtained were more than ten times what he had obtained during his previous visit to North America, and the amount was countless.
Because North America is so large, Canada and the United States both have vast territories and much richer resources than Japan, so this time, Li Xiang spent more time. He went back and forth for more than ten days, traveling east, west, south and north, crisscrossing the North American continent, causing great headaches for the United States.
The top leaders of the United States were furious. They held countless secret meetings and developed many plans to deal with the mysterious armored man, but in the end they found that they had to give up.
Because, if they really wanted revenge, Li Xiang could behead any one of them at will!
Just plunder if you want. In the face of absolute threat, the only thing you can do is "let it go".
They are not good people, and neither are the Japanese top leaders, but Li Xiang's strength is beyond their understanding. It has an unbreakable top speed of Mach 14, and is elusive. It is proficient in earth-related abilities and can move freely in the ocean.
They had no weapons to use against Li Xiang.
In one sprint he entered the depths of the Pacific Ocean and dived into the deep sea. How could he be chased? It disappeared in a flash and went deep into the ground. No trace is left. How can we catch it? Those people were worried that if they failed to capture the Armored Man, he would carry out his revenge plan, and no one in heaven or on earth would be able to save them, no matter where they hid.
Some people were thankful that the mysterious armored man only wanted supplies and did not assassinate them, otherwise, it would be absolutely difficult to escape his clutches! Therefore, most people voted not to provoke the mysterious armored man. Just take a small loss and then find a way to get it back from other countries, like those trash in Europe.
What’s a bit funny is that several of the discussions regarding the mysterious armored man were actually held in a group, and then someone took screenshots and leaked them, causing a global uproar.
Europeans are particularly angry: "You actually say we are trash? You treat us like fat pigs? The most dangerous enemy turns out to be our teammates?" But there is nothing they can do.
Some people laughed: "The United States is so advanced, but they are discussing such confidential matters in the group? Is this true?"
A netizen said: "The world is just a huge makeshift team."
In fact, the beautiful country likes to use groups and emails, whether it is a company or a government.
Due to their unique culture, they are very polite when speaking in the group. For example, they often call each other "team" or "we are a team...", which is very affectionate.
Another example is some praise speech system: "I will pray for victory." "Dear XXX, you did a great job." "XXX, you did a great job, cheers for you." "Good start!" "XXX, you and your team are great!" "XXX also did a great job, a strong start."
“Thanks to everyone, especially ..., who were outstanding.”
“Great job, great results!”
Once someone speaks out, many people will follow suit.
There are also many rituals and benefits, such as: "Today is XXX's birthday, the department has prepared a rich gift for XXX, let's all go to XXX to eat donuts and wish him a happy birthday."
"XXX, today is your birthday. I hope you and your family have a pleasant dinner. Remember to come and reimburse."
“Today is someone’s first anniversary at work (Nth anniversary), let’s celebrate for him…”
I also like to send emojis, like posts, etc.
According to internal statistics from JPMorgan Chase, Americans send an average of 2,300 "great job" messages a day, and the word "awesome" appears 7.2 times more frequently than "concern" in Google Docs comments. A Stanford University study shows that every word of praise can increase team efficiency by 17%.
…
Li Xiang collected enough supplies and floated away to South America.
As for the reward, it is to remind them that there will be a super flood in the summer two years later.
In fact, wherever Li Xiang goes, he will issue warnings in the local language. For example, on the lawn in front of the White House, words are condensed using earth-based supernatural powers.
This was also a very important factor that frightened the top leaders of the United States and made them give up the idea of revenge.
Oh my god, people are coming to stroll around the White House. Do they want it to burn down again?
Well, it doesn’t matter if the White House burns down. At most, it can be painted white again and still be called the White House. However, since the mysterious armored man can burn down the White House, he can naturally do other things.
There is a lot of discussion around the world about the great flood that will happen in two years. If it were an ordinary person giving the warning, not many people would believe it. After all, there are countless predictions about the end of the world every year, but no one seems to really take them seriously.
But this time it’s different, it’s a warning from the “mysterious armored man”.
At the same time, China's diplomatic team also privately leaked the news through various means, allowing countries around the world to prepare as soon as possible.
As for whether they believe it or not, and whether they take action or not, that is really none of our business. But giving them a reminder two years in advance is already the best we can do.
The country is also making intensive preparations for the war.
Li Xiang didn't worry about these things. He went to South America to continue plundering supplies and also went to the Amazon rainforest to visit Yaki Toto.
Relying on his former identity as a shaman, his extraordinary physique and supernatural powers, Yaki Toto not only integrated into the new tribe but also became the leader of the tribe. However, when he saw Li Xiang, the "Paya", he was naturally very respectful and excitedly came over to hug Li Xiang.
"Paya, I thought you had forgotten me. I'm so happy to see you." Yaki Toto smiled like a child. His originally old appearance of about sixty years old has recovered to his normal appearance of about thirty years old due to practice and his powerful strength, which made it easier for him to obtain food. He has a muscular body and has transformed from an "old man" into a "macho man".
This is also one of the reasons why he is very popular in the tribe and has three wives. There was no stronger man in the tribe.
Li Xiang visited Yaki Toto's tribe, gave him some spiritual fruits, and told him about the big flood in the summer two years later.
This is a global flood, just like the previous snowstorm. Maybe it would be better in places with higher altitudes, such as Sichuan Province.
Yaki Toto naturally believed in Li Xiang unconditionally. Fortunately, they were used to living in the primitive jungle, and the Amazon rainforest often had heavy rains. It should not be a problem for them to move to the mountains in advance, or build tree houses or boats. As for food, with Yaki Toto's means, hunting anacondas, crocodiles, fish, capybaras, etc. in the water is not a problem.
Li Xiang patted him on the shoulder and said that if he was free, he would come to support them.
The conditions in the primitive tribe were harsh, and Li Xiang couldn't bear to see it, so he used his earth-related abilities to build some stone houses for them and left a lot of food and medicine from the outside world, most of which were just looted from North America. The medicines were mainly antibiotics, and Yaki Toto was told that they should only be taken when his tribesmen had a fever or a more serious illness.
Then he used crystal veins to condense some pots and pans, but did not interfere too much in their lives and left.
Yaki Toto looked at the direction where Li Xiang disappeared, feeling very nostalgic, but there was no trace of Paya anywhere. He stood there for a long time until his three wives came over and asked him to go home, and then he turned around.
…
Li Xiang came to the southernmost tip of Argentina, crossed the Drake Passage and went to the Antarctic glacier.
Because the super flood two years later was caused by extremely high temperatures, which led to a large amount of melting of Antarctic glaciers, rising sea levels, and then heavy rains all over the world that lasted for many days.
In such floods, countries and regions with low altitudes are the hardest hit.
But at this time in his previous life, Li Xiang was just an ordinary worker who had never even been abroad, let alone taking a cruise to Antarctica. Therefore, the real cause of the flood only remained at the level of "extreme high temperature" and "glacier melting". However, in this life, as his spiritual power deepened, he vaguely realized that the truth might not be so.
So come and check it out.
He used his extreme speed to patrol the entire Antarctic glacier and found nothing unusual. As he headed north and crossed a wide strait, he came to a land full of sheep.
New Zealand.
This is a place where there are more sheep than people, and there is no such thing as snakes.
Its sheep population reached a peak of 70.3 million in 1982 and has been declining since then, but as of now, it still remains at more than 20 million, while its population is only more than 5 million.
In New Zealand, sheep were naturally Li Xiang's main target. Wherever he went, he swept away everything like a whirlwind. In three days, he collected about 12 to 13 million sheep, reducing the number of his flock by half.
In addition, other materials are also collected, such as wheat, barley, oats, fruits, dairy products, beef, blankets (wool), leather (sheepskin, cowhide), wood, etc.
The wood is all processed ready-made wood, and Li Xiang doesn't like the wood of slightly lower quality.
New Zealand has 8.1 million hectares of forest and timber is one of its main exports. As for seafood, Li Xiang didn't do any of it. He and Luo Feifei would go to the deep sea to catch fresh ones in the future.
The world's largest "zero-dollar shopping" leader has set his sights on remote New Zealand. The whole country is in an uproar, but if the great United States can't do anything about it, what waves can they make? Li Xiang used his earth-related abilities to warn people at the city square in the capital, Wellington, about the great flood that would occur two years later.
Under normal circumstances, the New Zealand authorities would have thought it was a prank, but the loss of more than 10 million sheep and various other supplies was measured in tens of thousands of tons. With such a high price, the news was naturally taken very seriously.
The Buddha once said, "The Dharma cannot be spread lightly." In fact, the same applies to warnings. It is impossible not to be impressed by the news obtained after the other party has paid a huge price.
These ethnic minorities do not have a very harmonious relationship with the Chinese side, but Li Xiang does not have any psychological burden.
He crossed the Tasman Sea and came to Australia, where he naturally plundered a lot. After all, the territory was vast and it occupied an entire continent, so what he gained was ten times more than what he gained from New Zealand.
The agriculture and animal husbandry here are also extremely developed, with countless cattle, sheep, dairy products and wool products.
There are also wheat, barley, cotton, sorghum, etc., and wine is also a specialty.
The Penfolds 407, which is very popular among Chinese people, comes from Australia. The main reason for this wine's high alcohol content is that it has an alcohol content of 14.5%. Chinese people may be used to drinking strong liquor, so they don't like ordinary red wine. But when this wine goes in their mouth, they find it quite palatable.
It used to be just over 300 yuan a bottle, and then it was once sold for more than 1,000 yuan. Recently, perhaps due to the reduction in tariffs, the price has dropped to around 600 or 700 yuan.
Li Xiang also collected a lot of Australian wines, with the Penfolds series being the main target. But 407 is too low-end, so he mainly searches for Penfolds Grange, Penfolds 707, 798, etc.
It is worth mentioning that Australia is extremely rich in mineral resources. The proven reserves of minerals with economic mining value include: about 5.3 billion tons of bauxite, 14.6 billion tons of iron ore, 40.3 billion tons of black coal, 30 billion tons of lignite, 22.9 million tons of lead, 22.6 million tons of nickel, 41,400 tons of silver, 40,835 tons of tantalum, 41 million tons of zinc, and 5,570 tons of gold. The crude oil reserves are 227 billion liters and the natural gas reserves are 2.2 trillion cubic meters.
Even though Li Xiang possessed powerful "earth-based abilities", he still couldn't dig it all out. He simply couldn't dig it all out.
The iron ore here has an extremely high content, with an average iron content generally between 54% and 64%, and most of it above 60%. What is the concept? That is to say, one ton of iron ore contains five to six hundred kilograms of iron. In China, iron ore with an iron content of more than 30% is considered high-quality iron ore.
Moreover, most of Australia's iron ore is in the open air or buried not very deep, so it is very easy to mine.
When Li Xiang came to the Australian wilderness, he easily found a large amount of open-air iron ore. He picked up a piece and squeezed it. It was not iron ore at all, but a lump of iron.
His crystal vein weapon was simply used to purify and condense metals. The speed was very fast and it did not consume much spiritual power. He condensed thousands of tons of refined iron on the spur of the moment and then gave up. These mineral deposits were here and he could come and dig them at any time in the future. He would still focus on collecting food, cloth, medicine, etc.
In addition, the coal here is also one of the important raw materials for heating in the future doomsday. But like iron ore, the Australian authorities simply cannot mine it all here, and they are mining it so fast, just like a back garden, there is no need to rush. However, he collected some ready-made high-purity metals, about thirty kinds, about ten tons each, and planned to give them to Irene as gifts when he went to Europe to loot next time.
Because Irene was an expert in alchemy and needed a large amount of metal raw materials, Li Xiang directly placed them in the warehouse of the alchemy laboratory for her, which was better than her buying them herself.
Irene's castle was built on a mountain, surrounded by a very deep moat, and there was a large cliff not far away, so there was no need to worry about floods.
Entering Southeast Asian countries from Australia is very close to home. It is also the place Li Xiang often visited when he was "slow in speed" at the beginning. He still searched again and finally went home to rest.
