More than a hundred magic armorers were carrying things outside in large and small boxes. Li Xiu and Bai Wanli passed through many doors and came to a small warehouse.

"Chief Executive Li, you can choose anything here. This is your benefit as Chief Executive, but you can only choose one." Bai Wanli stood aside and said with a sneer.

"Didn't it say that the general's welfare should be a super spiritual magic core, a super spiritual gem and a batch of ordinary magic cores and ordinary gems?" Li Xiu frowned.

"You and your people have moved away all those extra magic cores and gems. Where can I get those things for you? Either you can come back at a later time, or you can take one here. You can choose." Bai Wanli said expressionlessly.

"Then I'll just choose one thing for the sake of convenience." Li Xiu had asked Li Qingyi before and knew that there was indeed a choice between resources and items. It was probably not possible to force Bai Wanli to take out the super spiritual gems or something like that today.

It would be even more impossible to do it another day. This kind of thing can be done once, but if it is done a second time, it will not only embarrass Bai Wanli, but also make things difficult for the president of Changshengtian.

No one would keep a group of bandits at home. This must not happen again.

Li Xiu looked over and saw that on the shelves were boxes of different sizes, probably tens of thousands of them.

"Where is the catalog?" Li Xiu looked at Bai Wanli and asked.

"Didn't I tell you before that the General Affairs Department is doing a major inventory? The inventory here hasn't been completed yet, so there's no catalog. You can take your time to pick until you're satisfied." Bai Wanli sneered.

"Okay, then I'll take my time to choose." Li Xiu was not in a hurry and opened the boxes one by one to check.

Most of these boxes contain deeds and rings, which should be things left behind by some trial-takers after their death.

However, before making a contract, it is difficult to tell the grade and quality of the contract and the magic ring, so if you choose like this, you don’t know what you will pick.

Bai Wanli watched coldly. The contracts and rings here were of both good and bad quality. Most of them were of low grade and quality. The proportion of S-grade items was less than one twentieth, not to mention the super spiritual items. There were not many in total.

Han Mingshou was able to choose the Dragon-Slaying Dagger before because Bai Wanli pointed it out to him.

If you choose without any knowledge, the chance of choosing a super spiritual item is about the same as buying a lottery ticket.

"What is this?" Li Xiu pointed at a jade token in a box and asked Bai Wanli.

"It's a jade token. Don't you even recognize a jade token?" Bai Wanli teased.

Li Xiu didn't say anything. After putting down the jade token, he continued to look down. He opened the boxes one by one. It was really hard to tell the good and bad things inside. When they were not activated, they all looked the same.

Li Xiu was walking and looking, thinking about how to choose something, when he suddenly heard a woman's voice in his mind: "Husband, choose the red box on the left hand side."

Li Xiu was startled and looked around quickly, but he did not see the bride-to-be. Only Bai Wanli was following not far behind him.

"There are outsiders around, so it's not convenient for me to show up in public. Please be sure to choose the red box." The voice of the bride-to-be came into Li Xiu's mind again.

Li Xiu frowned slightly and looked to his left.

There was indeed a red wooden box there. It was not very big, about one foot long, about the width of a palm, and four or five centimeters thick.

Li Xiu picked up the red box, opened it and saw a scabbard short sword inside the box.

The scabbard and hilt looked like they were cast in brass and were inlaid with many gemstones of various colors.

Li Xiu took a rough look and thought that the gems on it probably had all five major gems, including rubies, sapphires, emeralds and diamonds.

However, the gemstones inlaid on it are relatively small, the largest is only two or three carats, and the smallest is less than one carat. These small gemstones are the majority.

"What is this?" Li Xiu looked at Bai Wanli and asked.

"A dagger." Bai Wanli said casually.

"Let's take this." Li Xiu saw that there was nothing unusual on Bai Wanli's face and knew that he probably didn't value this dagger very much.

If it were Li Xiu himself, he would definitely not choose this dagger, but the bride-to-be must have her reasons for making such a strong request.

If Li Xiu didn't choose, he was afraid that the bride-to-be would cause trouble for him.

"Okay, just take it." Bai Wanli had no expression on his face, but he was secretly happy in his heart.

That dagger wasn't even a sword, it was just a work of art inlaid with gems.

Bai Wanli knew the origin of this sword. It was a relic left behind by an elder who guarded the Gate of Trial after his death.

Because the elder had no descendants, all his belongings were placed in a warehouse after his death, and the dagger was one of the things.

It had been studied before it was put into storage. The scabbard and sword are both made of brass. Although there is a little gold mixed in it, the content is not much. The gems inlaid on it are not big, and there are no magic gems.

If Li Xiu wanted the dagger because of the gems, he would undoubtedly have suffered a great loss.

If he follows the normal procedure, the benefits that Li Xiu can get are far more valuable than the gems inlaid on the sword. It can be said that these gems are just a drop in the bucket compared to them.

Bai Wanli did not make things difficult for Li Xiu, and he took out the jeweled dagger smoothly.

The magic costume masters also moved the supplies to the outside of the gate. More than a hundred magic costume masters moved, carried, and lifted the supplies, and followed Li Xiuhaohao back to the magic costume master compound.

Li Xiu asked Qian Chongshan to take people to deliver most of the supplies to the research institute.

The research institute is the one that consumes the most supplies. The magic costume masters only need to receive some supplies to live, and their magic costumes are also obtained from the research institute.

In the past, the resources of the magic armor group actually fell into the hands of the research institute and the magic armor master compound, and the total amount was only 30%.

Now ten percent is in Li Xiu's hands. He gave seventy percent of it to the research institute and magic costume masters, doubling their salaries, which made these magic costume masters and researchers very happy.

In fact, their salaries are not that much, and most of the supplies are used to research and manufacture magic equipment.

Li Xiu kept 30% of them, which were all gems and magic cores that did not take up space, just enough for him to use to feed the magic spirit.

After finishing everything, Li Xiu returned to Yard No. 7 with the gems and magic cores. Boxes of gems of various colors were placed on the table, and under the light they were so dazzling that it almost blinded people.

Li Xiu summoned the bride-to-be and Cupid Sagittarius, and gave them rubies and tanzanites to eat.

It's a pity that there are no cheap black spinels, so the Black Death Lord can't eat them for the time being. He can exchange them for some later. That stuff is cheap, and he can exchange them for a lot of it by just taking out some sapphires or something.

After eating a few Tanzanites, Sagittarius couldn't eat anymore, so we had to wait until she had digested them before we could continue feeding her.

The bride-to-be did not even eat the rubies. Instead, her eyes, through her black waterfall-like hair, were fixed on the red wooden box containing the jeweled sword.

Li Xiu opened the red wooden box, took out the jeweled sword from it, and handed it to the bride-to-be: "What do you want it for?"

The bride-to-be took the jeweled sword, her slender pale fingers grasping the scabbard.

The next second, Li Xiu saw the brass scabbard turn into copper powder between the bride's palms.

Clang! Clang!

The broken scabbard and hilt fell to the ground, and the inlaid gems also fell to the ground with a clang, and only a small pile of copper powder was left in the bride's hand.

When Li Zheng was wondering what the bride-to-be meant, the bride-to-be suddenly lowered her head and blew into her palm.

The copper powder was blown away by the bride-to-be, and underneath the copper powder, a red gem needle was revealed.

The bride-to-be picked up the ruby ​​needle in her palm with her other hand.

Li Xiu was overjoyed. Looking at the ruby ​​needle, he felt hungry. The ruby ​​needle turned out to be a magic gem.

When Li Zheng was about to ask what the ruby ​​needle hidden in the jewel sword was used for, he saw the bride-to-be put the ruby ​​needle into her mouth, and chewed it into pieces and swallowed it like she was eating a candy bar.

Before Li Xiu could figure out what was going on, the bride-to-be had already swallowed the ruby ​​needle.

The next second, a red light rose from the bride-to-be's body, and soon engulfed her body like a bonfire.

After waiting for a long time, the red flames on the bride-to-be slowly faded away, revealing her figure.

It seems that the bride-to-be hasn't changed much, she still looks like Sadako in the red dress.

The bride-to-be under the starry sky: can evolve into a demon spirit.

Grade: S.

Quality: Aurora.

Talented skills: Wedding dress.

Li Xiu sensed the information of the bride-to-be and found that she had actually been promoted to S-level, but her only innate skill was wedding dress.

"The quality of this Aurora is like a joke. It's already S-level, but even the second talent skill hasn't been awakened." Li Xiu felt helpless.

The bride-to-be is not willing to fight at all and doesn't have any skills. This evil spirit is the most troublesome one for Li Xiuyang.

After summoning the bride back, Li Xiu summoned the injured dragon vein spirit out and placed boxes of gems of various colors in front of it to see which gem it would like to eat so as to heal its wounds.

As a result, the Dragon Vein Spirit just looked at the gems and had no intention of eating them at all.

"What kind of gems do you eat?" Li Xiu was probably certain that the gems that the Dragon Vein Spirit ate were not among the five major gems.

He had no choice but to take the Dragon Vein Spirit back. Li Xiu thought about it and decided to go to the gem market in Changshengtian.

One is to exchange some black spires for the Black Death Demon King, and the other is to find out what kind of gems the Dragon Vein Spirit eats.

Some Tanzanites also need to be replaced. That box of Tanzanites is definitely not enough to support Cupid Sagittarius to reach S level.

When Sha Chu heard that Li Xiu was going to the gem market, he was not interested at all. He only told Li Xiu the location of the gem market and had no intention of accompanying him.

Li Xiu had no choice but to go to the gem market alone. When he arrived, he couldn't help but be shocked by the scene before him.

In the huge market, there are rows of gemstone stalls that seem to have no end, and on each stall are boxes of gemstones of various colors.

The Jedi Spinels, which are rarely seen outside, are sold by box here. There are about seventy or eighty pieces in each box, and the size of the Spinels in each box is almost the same.

Rubies, sapphires, emeralds, all kinds of gemstones are available, and many of them are of very good quality.

The owner of any small stall can produce several top-quality diamonds weighing more than ten carats.

These are just the stalls in the market. There are rows of jewelry shops on both sides of the market, and the gems inside are obviously more high-end.

The gem market that Li Xiu had seen in Tyro City before was basically no different from a garbage dump compared to this gem market.

"Changshengtian is Changshengtian. It is estimated that 80% of the gems in the world are concentrated here." Li Xiu saw boxes of diamonds, all kinds of colorful ones.

Blue diamonds and red diamonds, which are rarely seen outside, are not rare here.

“If there are enough resources, there is no need to worry about the demigod not being able to be promoted to S-level in an instant.” Li Xiu sighed in his heart as he looked at the boxes of blue diamonds.

"Mr. Li." When Li Zhengxiu was admiring the gems all over the street, he suddenly heard someone calling him from a stall next to him.

Li Xiu turned his head and saw that the person who called him was the owner of the stall, but after looking at him for a few times, he found that he did not know him.

"Hello, Chief Li, my name is Sun Tianlei, and I'm from the Sun family, one of the four great families. A few days ago, I had the honor of witnessing your glorious victory over Jing Li..." The middle-aged man came out from behind the stall, ran to Li Xiu, and gave a long opening speech, which almost made Li Xiu fall asleep.

"Director Li, are you here to buy gems? Come to my stall and take a look. I'll give you a 20% discount." Sun Tianlei said, pointing to his own stall.

"Why are people from the Sun family setting up a stall here?" Li Xiu took a look at his stall. Although there were quite a few gems, it was no different from the stalls next to it. It was hard to imagine that people from the four major families would set up such a small stall here.

Sun Tianlei smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you, Chief Li. The Sun family has been passed down here for thousands of years. There are more than ten thousand direct descendants with the surname Sun, and there are even more collateral branches. Some are doing well, while others are just average like me. Fortunately, I have the name of the Sun family. No matter how badly I am doing, at least I won't be bullied for no reason."

"It's not bad to have my own business." Li Xiu nodded and followed Sun Tianlei to his stall.

The gemstones on his stall are mainly diamonds, but there are also many of the other four major gemstones, as well as tourmaline, olive, spinel, aquamarine and so on. There are quite a lot of varieties and the quality is also good.

"Why are there so many people selling diamonds here?" Li Xiu asked with some confusion.

He looked at so many stalls, and almost every stall had a large number of diamonds.

As if seeing through Li Xiu's thoughts, Sun Tianlei smiled and said, "In fact, the reserves of diamonds are very huge. The diamond mines discovered so far are enough to be mined for hundreds or thousands of years. The reason why you feel that diamonds are very expensive outside is that most of the diamond mines are controlled by Changshengtian, and most of the mined diamonds are transported to Changshengtian."

"I see." Li Xiu probably guessed that this was the reason.

"Director Li, if you like diamonds, I just happened to have a rare gem here. Would you like to take a look first?" Sun Tianlei said without waiting for Li Xiu's consent. He carefully took out a small cloth bag from his arms, opened the bag, and poured out a pink diamond from it.

"Is this... an Argyle pink diamond?" Li Xiu originally wanted to say that he was not planning to buy diamonds, but when he saw the pink diamond that Sun Tianlei poured out, he couldn't help but be surprised.

Argyle pink diamonds are to pink diamonds what Namibian Jedi are to red spinels, both being synonymous with the finest quality.

The largest pink diamond in the world was dug out from the Argyle Mine in ancient Australia. It weighed 12.76 carats and was known as the Flower Boy Pink Diamond.

In the old world, many wealthy people scrambled to buy pink diamonds from the Argyle Mine, so much so that when the Argyle Mine was closed, the price of Argyle pink diamonds soared.

Having a diamond certificate from Argyle can dramatically increase the value of a pink diamond.

The pink diamond in Sun Tianlei's hand is as dreamy as a girl. It is a standard diamond cut. Although not as big as the largest pink diamond, it is also seven or eight carats in size. Among Argyle pink diamonds, this is already quite large.

While outside, Li Xiu remembered that he had seen an auction of an Argyle pink diamond. The Argyle pink diamond, which was less than six carats, was sold at a sky-high price of five million space coins per carat. Six carats meant thirty million, which was enough for Li Xiu to build a magic spirit arena.

Sun Tianlei's Argyle pink diamond is larger than the one Li Xiu had seen at the auction before, and its color and clarity are not inferior to that one.

The value of such an Argyle pink diamond is immeasurable. Even in a place like Changshengtian where gems are everywhere, it is estimated that it can be sold at a sky-high price, at least tens of millions of space coins.

The reason why Li Xiu paid so much attention to it was not because of the high value of this Argyle pink diamond, but because when he saw it, Li Xiu felt a strong sense of hunger in his stomach.

This Argyle pink diamond is actually a magic gem.

"Director Li, this is a valuable treasure that I have kept in my bottom drawer. To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that I could buy a magic spirit for my son, I would never be willing to sell it. This is not something that diamond companies have recently mined in large quantities, but an old item dug out from the ruins of an ancient castle in Australia. The owner of the castle was originally a great noble..." Sun Tianlei recounted the origin of the Argyle pink diamond.

In fact, he couldn't explain it clearly. He only knew that it was dug out from the castle by a group of gem hunters. As for the origin of the castle's owner, he was also half guessing.

"I didn't expect that Chief Li would be interested in listening to stories here." Li Zhengxiu was listening with great interest when he suddenly heard a familiar and annoying voice coming from behind him.
