Chapter 681: Situation

In the next few days, whether it was the port or the Wu Kingdom, Yang or the Yuanyang Continent, it was almost calm, without any waves. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At the instruction of Li Sen, Liu Yinyue sent people to Erlang Mountain to investigate the next day, and arranged three sentry spies in Zhongshan during the foundation building period to spy on the movements of Bai Lao Ghost and others.

After a while, the envoy who went to Erlang Mountain returned, telling that everything was normal in Erlang Mountain, but the atmosphere was a little weird, and it seemed that the Ma Boss and others on the mountain had become a lot more honest, and the messenger asked if he wanted to explore again.

Liu Yinyue thought about it and finally rejected the proposal. Liu Yinyue believes that even if there are some problems on Erlang Mountain, Ma Lao Da and others are just wild repairs during the foundation building period, and they are not the climate, so they don't need to care too much. In contrast, on the contrary, Zhong Shan, led by the white old ghost, should be more careful.

So, Liu Yinyue sent the monk to Huizhou to investigate the whereabouts of Chai Rong and others.

In the next few days, the sentinels lurking in Zhongshan did not find anything special after some investigation, and the white old ghost still hid in the bamboo forest and could not come out, and the dragon could not see the head and the end. And the monk who went to Huizhou couldn't find any trace of Chai Rong at all.

For this kind of result, Liu Yinyue only has two words.

"Check again!"

......

However, although Liu Yinyue's investigation of Bai Lao Ghost and others had no results, the news came back from the headquarters of the Business Alliance.

The news was sent back by the Council of Elders headed by Wei Rulong, and the content was that after serious discussions, the headquarters of the Business Alliance had decided to admit the Nie family of Red Maple Valley into the Business Alliance and shelter them.

Along with this news, there were also some requirements and conditions drawn up by the Council of Elders and others, which needed to be complied with by the people of the Nie family.

The detailed plot was handed over by Wei Rulong to Li Sen for full control.

After getting the news, Liu Yinyue didn't dare to slack off, and immediately told Li Sen.

After thinking for a while, Li Sen left the port directly and went straight to the Red Maple Valley.

After arriving in Red Maple Valley, everyone in the Nie family received Li Sen very warmly, and Nie Qihai, the head of the Nie family, personally introduced Li Sen into the study.

Next, Li Sen and Nie Qihai began a three-day closed-door meeting.

At the end of the meeting, both men had a look of exhaustion on their faces. But judging from Nie Qihai's expression, he was still at ease, and he should be satisfied with the outcome of the talks.

In contrast, Li Sen still looks calm and waveless, and he can't see his joy or anger.

After politely refusing Nie Qihai's banquet hospitality, Li Sen directly surrendered his hand. On the occasion of parting, Nie Qihai gave Li Sen an additional three 'Jade Spirit Pills' as a reward to express Li Sen's gratitude to the Nie family.

After thinking about it, Li Sen still didn't refuse, directly accepted the three jade spirit pills, and left with a smile.

Nie Qihai sent Li Sen out of the valley all the way, and stood in place to watch Li Sen stay away, and then turned back to the valley.

As Nie Qihai turned around and returned to the valley, the entire Red Maple Valley immediately entered a state of sealing the valley, no longer asking about foreign affairs, and looked like he was in danger and self-defense.

......

After Li Sen returned to the port, he received two more messages, one good and one bad.

The good news is that everything is going well for the shipyard's warships, and the completion date can be determined before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The bad news is that the number of demon spies in the human realm has skyrocketed, and there have even been vicious incidents of demon monks attacking the human race in many places. This shows that the invasion of the demon world by the human world is already on the line, and the interface war may break out at any time.

To this end, Li Sen hired the cooks of Wanghailou in the harbor to make delicious dishes and reward the people of the shipyard. At the same time, he sent people to the Ten Thousand Souls Sea to inquire about the details of the 'Interface War' at the headquarters of the Anti-Demon Alliance.

Li Sen had personally witnessed the ruthless methods of the Demon Realm cultivators, and knew that with the strength of his own business alliance, or the strength of the defensive facilities such as the port, he would not be able to resist the attack of the Demon Realm army at all. Therefore, Li Sen wanted to inquire about the plans of the Star Sea Business Alliance and the Sea Clan, to see if they were ready to start a war with the Demon Realm cultivators.

If these people are secretly prepared and give up Wanlinghai once the war starts, then Caixian Xingang, which is adjacent to Wanlinghai, will have to prepare in advance.

The construction of the port is extremely difficult, and Li Sen does not want this port created by himself to be destroyed in the interface war.

However, Li Sen alone couldn't do too much, worries were worries, and Li Sen's own cultivation was not delayed in the slightest.

With those three Jade Spirit Pills, as well as a large number of body quenching drugs related to the 'Quenching Bone Formula', Li Sen was confident that he would take his strength one step further and reach the peak of the early stage of the Jindan before the battle boat was built.

If he is extremely lucky, he can break through the bottleneck at one time, and Li Sen can directly advance to the middle stage of Jindan.

However, this is not very likely, unless there are three more Jade Spirit Pills to assist in cultivation.

All in all, Li Sen is now extremely vigilant against the external situation, and at the same time he is diligent in practicing day and night.

The sun moves and the moon moves, and spring goes to summer solstice.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed, and it is already June.

In more than two months, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be reached, and the construction progress of the shipyard is becoming more and more stable, and the Mo monks, including Yuno, have mastered all the joints of the shipyard, and it can almost be said that they are in power. At this moment, even without Fengtu's help, the Mo family monk was able to build a superb warship.

On the port side, it is still prosperous, but it is a little different from the past that the whole human world seems to sense the delicate situation at this moment. Even mortals without any mana began to vigilantly prepare for battle. They sharpen things like sickles and hoes in case something happens.

The reason why the people were nervous was because all the countries in the entire Yuanyang Continent had begun to rearm themselves for war under the impetus of a single force.

In the eyes of ordinary people, these countries must be trying to plot each other's territory for a unified military war. But only those who know the inside story will truly understand that the reason why these secular countries are preparing armaments is only to win a glimmer of hope of survival in the upcoming interface war.

It is precisely because all the countries in the entire Yuanyang Continent are preparing for war that the port has been very busy with cargo ships this month.

Chu domestic copper, Jin domestic iron, Shu domestic coal.

Mineral resources vary from place to place, and trading with each other requires a large amount of transportation equipment. Among the many transportation equipment, large cargo ships are undoubtedly the most cost-effective mode of transportation.

Therefore, a large amount of steel, coal, copper ore, and even weapons and armor that have been formed began to circulate in Caixian Xingang.

Under the heavy pressure of this storm, the people of the entire continent who were gradually oppressed were out of breath, so they began to instinctively hoard daily necessities.

Prices began to rise, and the merchants who lived in strange goods made a lot of money in an instant.

Even Juan, who was in charge of the port's internal affairs, couldn't bear the loneliness and began to buy and sell weapons and copper and iron ore.

Although Wu was not as rich in various resources as Jin, Chu, and Shu, it was also stronger than the barren or narrow Yue, Song, and Yan. Although there are no large mines in Wu, there are still quite a few small mines.

As the head of internal affairs in Xingang, Caixian County, Juan is almost equivalent to the first assistant of the entire Wu State, so Juan easily annexed and acquired all the mineral resources in the Wu State. And he also personally organized manpower, opened a smelter not far from the port, and began to forge various weapons and equipment.

It has to be said that Juan is very economically minded. This smelter has just been built, and the weapons produced are still only samples, and the power cannot be confirmed, and all the weapons and equipment have been booked out within half a month.

A large amount of real money and silver entered the Juxing Pavilion like flowing water. Juan used this real money to improve the port facilities and further strengthen the port's fortifications.

For Juan's moves, Liu Yinyue naturally expressed her support, and only Li Sen was noncommittal.

Because Li Sen knew that in the face of a battle of this level as the interface war, whether it was a secular mortal or a fortification in the port that looked majestic but was actually limited in power, it was actually of little use.

Even if the current port can withstand the impact of a wave of demon beasts in the Demon Realm, it can't withstand the attack of a Demon Realm Yuan Infant Great Cultivator.

What's more, it is said that there are as many powerful people in the demon realm as forests, and there are countless monks in the realm of the Guanghua God Stage.

"I just hope it's still too late. If the information is accurate, the time of the Demon Realm invasion will be at the end of the year at the earliest, and only in this way can the battle boat be ensured to be manufactured. Li Sen sighed slightly.

But just when Li Sen looked at the sea and sighed, someone suddenly came to report that the Ma boss of Erlang Mountain was visiting.
