In theory, things in the Northern Wilderness cannot be delayed anymore. Of course, it is best to bypass the Foreign Minister's Mansion and outsource it. But what Li Shaoyang is worried about is that the city defense security of his country can be done once or twice, but he cannot really entrust others forever.

There is one thing that Li Shaoyang knows very well. The so-called "It is better to buy than to make, and it is better to rent than to buy" is definitely the most nonsense in the world. The so-called iron must be strong by itself. When one day, will the person who makes things for you be hostile to you?

Some things are not worth it, but they must be in your own hands and constantly innovate, research and build them, so that you can accumulate more experience and experience in this process. This is why Wushuang City has a foreign minister's residence, and this is also why Wushuang, under the command of His Highness Changkong Feier, experience of the way of arraying in Qimen, is the first in the Nine Realms. It is because she created the Dragon Guard Camp.

While walking, Li Shaoyang stopped and decided that this time he could only bypass the Foreign Minister's Mansion and entrust it to the Immortal Artifact Gate.

Logically speaking, if such a situation cannot happen in Wushuang, even if you want to do this, you have to communicate with the Foreign Minister's Office and the Immortal Arts Sect. However, because Li Shaoyang is going to build a once-for-all city fire protection array this time, it will solve the severe cold problem of the four northern provinces in one fell swoop. At this time, the treasury cannot allocate these expenses, and once discussed with the Wei Zhongcheng that the matter of the Northern Wilderness can only be handled by himself.

This means that Li Shaoyang must work with Beihuang Youji to solve this problem by himself. Since it is not a treasury allocation, Li Shaoyang can bypass the Foreign Minister's Mansion and communicate with the Immortal Artifact Sect by himself.

When she returned to the prime minister's house, Mother Mimi waited in her seat again. She always looked spotless and solemn, and now she is not cold at all and has a gentle attitude.

Li Shaoyang felt a little bad about this. Li Shaoyang was more willing to treat her who hated her. In that case, she might feel better when she conflicted with her mother's family in the future.

Unfortunately, things went against my wishes, and this woman seemed to be becoming more and more likable.

"You are here, Master," Mother Mimi stood up and greeted her slowly.

Li Shaoyang forced himself to ignore her, nodded slightly, and then sat down to look at the messy documents.

Mother Mimi was slightly disappointed with Li Shaoyang's attitude, but she didn't say much. She still sat quietly and stared at Li Shaoyang in a daze.

"Come here, take my jade plaque to summon Xiuli, the chief deacon of the Immortal Artifact Sect." After reviewing some documents, Li Shaoyang ordered.

A little beauty ran away immediately.

Among the officials of the Prime Minister's House, there are still quite a few women, accounting for at least half. This is mainly because of the unparalleled tradition. While feminist rights are paramount, it has also formed the tradition of many uncles taking care of their children at home and mothers coming out to support their families.

Soon after, a beautiful figure entered the Prime Minister's Mansion. This was the Prime Minister's lobby, which was relatively formal, so Xiuli Zhenren still did enough etiquette, "See the Prime Minister, I don't know what the summoned."

"You come."

Li Shaoyang got up and walked over, opened the area map of Wushuang Realm, pointed and told Xiuli about some details.

Xiuli listened carefully and generally understood Li Shaoyang's intentions.

After a moment, Xiuli shook her head and said, "Prime Minister, I am blunt. Watch your drawing marks and the direction of the cold current, to use the northern wasteland as a barrier to build a fire array to solve the cold problems in the four northern provinces once and for all."

"Yes, this is my purpose." Li Shaoyang said.

Xiuli Zhenren said: "But it is difficult for the Five Yang Fire Array we discussed at the beginning to achieve such an effect."

Li Shaoyang said: "So I will use the Six Yang Fire Array this time, and the number of fire arrays will be greatly increased."

At this moment, Li Shaoyang expressed his general idea and details, and said, "Xiuli Real Person, give me a quote."

Xiuli Zhenren thought carefully for a long time and stretched out her three fingers and said, "The price is 3 billion yuan at a time. You know, this is already an acquaintance price and cannot be lower. This is close to our cost price. It is only because there is an order above that our Immortal Artifact Sect must make a good relationship with you, Prince, so that such a concession can be made. Otherwise, if it were someone else, such a huge city defense construction would be difficult to build 4 billion yuan."

Li Shaoyang nodded, knowing that what she said was true. Indeed, when communicating with the Foreign Minister, he tried that the amount of funds needed for this project, Zhuang Bufan gave was about 5 billion yuan.

Five billion should contain about 4 billion construction costs, some losses, and the greed of each person in charge. This is a conservative estimate.

"Okay, I accepted this price. I just asked when I can get it?" Li Shaoyang asked.

Xiuli Zhenren said: "As long as the cost reaches me, I will immediately send out elite troops to the Immortal Fire Realm headquarters for the Flying Sword and Sailing Book. They will immediately send elite troops to the Northern Wilderness to undertake construction. The prime minister will never need to worry about our efficiency."

"Okay." Li Shaoyang nodded and said, "But I don't have that much fee for the time being, so I can only pay in batches. I promise to pay the two floors in advance, and when the project is halfway through, I will pay the fourth floor. After the project is completed and passed, I will pay the last six floors. Xiuli Real Person, is this OK?"

"This..." Xiuli hesitated for a moment, "Is it necessary to be so nervous when the prime minister holds the Great Unparalleled Treasury?"

Li Shaoyang sighed and said, "You don't know my difficulties. This time the situation is special and the treasury cannot be funded. It must be borne by me personally and the Northern Wilderness Land."

Xiuli said in embarrassment: "This is probably even more difficult. Prime Minister, the wise man does not say secret words. If this transaction is guaranteed by Wushuang Treasury and built by the official Prime Minister's Office, then everything is easy to say, even if the Immortal Artifact Sect is willing to make a relationship without paying the fee. However, if there is no guarantee of the treasury, it is just the Prime Minister's personal behavior and the persuasiveness will be insufficient. In this case, we usually start planning after paying all the fees."

Li Shaoyang felt very disappointed. Although he was not very happy, he was embarrassed to force Xiuli real person. What she said made sense. It was consistent with common sense to collect money. This is difficult now.

Mother Mimi, who was sitting next to her, smiled slightly, and of course she knew that Xiuli was insincere and that she was not sincere.

At this point, Mother Mimi interjected and said, "Sumi Li is polite."

"Madam, be polite." Xiuli quickly returned the gift.

Mother Mimi turned around and said, "If you don't say secret words in front of a bright person, even if my prime minister does things as a personal capacity, his face is worth tens of billions. If you don't say it, I know that even if you don't pay for a elixir, the Xianqi Gate will take over this business. My prime minister doesn't like to bend around and is a straightforward person, so Xiuli real person, just say anything special to you."

Xiuli was surprised and looked at her mother Mimi specifically and said a little embarrassedly: "Okay, let's say that, I know that the Great Wushuang fertile land is millions of acres, and it is strong. My Immortal Artifact Sect hopes to reserve a batch of seeds. But now, the seeds in the Nine Realms are basically not enough, and they are monopolized by Rejuvenation. I believe there are only three places that are capable of taking out this batch of seeds, one is the Ancient Demon Realm, one is the Wushuang Realm, and the other is the Immortal Sea."

Li Shaoyang nodded and said, "Yes, Wushuang's spiritual fields of all grades are more than 6 million mu, and they are produced and sold by themselves. The seeds do not rely on rejuvenation, and they still have reserves, but they are the seeds of the national treasury. The original appearance cannot make a decision to pay you with seeds."

Xiuli Zhenren smiled and said, "Of course I dare not let the prime minister be favoritism and abuse the law. All I want is a promise. In the future, regarding Wushuang's seed trading, I will get a share and get the entry ticket? For a long time, Wushuang has handed over the excess seed trading to Danchun Gate. This will not be beneficial to everyone."

Li Shaoyang said: "I can promise you this. Although this is a matter for the Foreign Minister's Office, the seed reserves are in the national treasury. If you are responsible, no one can get an unparalleled seed without the same agreement."

"Okay. The prime minister is a reputable person. If you get this promise, you don't have to pay the fee for the time being. I immediately send a letter to the headquarters and ask someone to go to the northern desert to build city defense. As for the expenses owed, there will be a certain interest in accordance with the rules. I wonder if the prime minister can accept it?" Xiuli Zhenren said.

Li Shaoyang nodded and said, "Of course, you have to have interest when borrowing money. This is the principle of heaven and earth. What I care about is that if it is usury, then I will never pay it back."

"One cent profit is a favor price for the prime minister." Xiuli smiled.

"Transaction." Li Shaoyang immediately handed over all the recently planned information of the Northern Wilderness Land to Xiuli Real Person and made a jade slip. The two parties signed it, which was a major agreement.

"Prince, I still have important things to do, so I will say goodbye. I will wait for good news about the Northern Wilderness." Xiuli left.

After thinking for a while, Li Shaoyang turned to his mother Mi Mi and said, "Why did the Immortal Artifact Sect suddenly care about seeds so much?"

Mother Mi Mi said, "Your Majesty, it has been reported that the Immortal Artifact Sect secretly collects fields in the Nine Realms. At present, there are certain reserves. If you have fields, of course you also need to have enough seed reserves. The Immortal Artifact Sect is not stupid. The Immortal Fire Realm where they are located has many mineral veins, but there are too few spiritual fields and seeds. In this way, you have to rely entirely on Danchun Gate, that is, to hand over some lifelines to Huichun. Therefore, as long as the head of the Immortal Artifact Sect has ambitions and ideals, you have to turn this situation around. Not to mention making money by relying on medicinal materials, but you have your own reserves. You don't have to rely on Rejuvenation in times of crisis and be able to be self-sufficient. This is the most basic thing. It doesn't matter whether it is cost-effective or not. This is called strategic security. No matter how expensive it is, you have to do it. You have to grit your teeth and do it."

Li Shaoyang nodded and sighed, "This is the reason. Unfortunately, there are too few people in the Nine Realms. The world is in chaos. There are still people selling land at this time. Selling land at this time is directly equivalent to selling the country and selling blood."
