mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 908 Taking inventory of equipment
Zhao Chuanxin said he was leaving today.

If it were Rebecca Levi, she would definitely have to stay with Ni Ni Wai Wai Wai, or continue to linger with her until death.

But Miao Cuihua didn't.

She just responded lightly, and then said: "You know when I took my daughter to eat in the wind and sleep in the dew, we had no time to eat. Nowadays, I can't even think about it. This must be the carp leaping over the dragon's gate." But guess what?”

It's up to Zhao Chuanxin to decide whether he wants to give you face or not: "Sister Hua, please tell me what's going on?"

The two of them were lying on the pillows. Miao Cuihua put her arms around Zhao Chuanxin's neck and strangled him hard. She said funnyly: "After I jumped over the dragon gate, I found that there were dragons behind the gate."

Zhao Chuanxin: "..."

Miao Cuihua rolled her eyes at him: "You are not allowed to carry dumplings with outsiders from now on, do you hear me?"

"Ha ha……"

Miao Cuihua asked him again: "When you join the Naraushizi Arms Limitation Committee, are you waiting for someone to be fooled? A kid? Or a Maozi? They are really smart now."

"Yes, look at it."

"What if they don't fall for it?"

"If they don't fall for it, what's the difference between it and me suffering a loss?"

"..."

The two chatted for a while, Zhao Chuanxin continued to lie down, but Miao Cuihua got up and washed up.

The two old ladies at home haven't come back from rest yet. Miao Cuihua went to the kitchen and prepared a meal, while Zhao Chuanxin went to eat it without brushing his teeth.

Jiang Mingxin has not returned from Gao Li's house.

After the two of them finished eating, Miao Cuihua said: "I'm leaving in a hurry. You can put it there after you finish it. When I come back to clean it up, I won't send it to you."

"Send it off, it's freezing and snowy, maybe we can still burn with passion for a while, how exciting is it?"

"Screw you."

When Miao Cuihua went out, Zhao Chuanxin released the puppet slaves and the black puppet craftsman.

Some things are too shocking, more uncomfortable than being bathed in lightning on a rainy day, and are destined to be enjoyed by Zhao Chuanxin alone.

The black puppet craftsman writes quickly.

The puppet slaves cleaned and cleaned the dishes, wiped Zhao Chuanxin's leather shoes until they were shiny, ironed his clothes so that there were no wrinkles, and had to wash Zhao Chuanxin's hair and trim his beard.

When Zhao Chuanxin saw his new self on January 1909, 1 in the mirror, it was really difficult to be dissatisfied.

Tilting his head from side to side, he remembered that it was time to drink "Nutrition Express".

After taking a dose of nutritional medicine, Zhao Chuanxin felt refreshed.

The deficit last night finally returned to balance.

He picked up the newly installed telephone and started to draw numbers.

"Hello, this is the Lugang Town Public Security Bureau..."

Before he could speak, Zhao Chuanxin interrupted: "Tell Fan Ziliang to come to No. 1 Yanguang Road Courtyard."

After saying that, he hung up arrogantly.

Zhao Chuanxin put away the black puppet craftsmen and puppet slaves, stood at the door and looked at his watch. It was not yet seven o'clock.

About twelve minutes later, Fan Ziliang trotted to the door of Zhao Chuanxin's house.

On the coffee table, there are several letters arranged by black puppet craftsmen in different categories.

Zhao Chuanxin picked up the letter and handed it to Fan Ziliang along with a piece of ocean: "These letters should be given to the corresponding people."

Fan Ziliang bared his two bright big teeth and said, "It will definitely be delivered."

That piece of ocean, according to the old rules, belongs to him.

Sir, he would never let his work go in vain.

When Fan Ziliang left in a hurry, Zhao Chuanxin raised his wrist and looked at Santos' watch. It was 7:3. He asked Xingyue: "Is it okay?"

"Leave at any time."

Zhao Chuanxin flashed out immediately.

Bronze Eye No. 12 is placed on the bedside table of Zhao Chuanxin's master bedroom at Ethan Manor in North Tarrytown, a suburb of New York City.

从1909年1月1日，赵传薪又回到了12月31日，因为纽约的时间比鹿岗镇慢了十多个小时。

Zhao Chuanxin looked at the spotless bedroom and nodded with satisfaction.

Freddy Pavitt is a competent British butler.

It was still morning in Lugang Town, but it was night in Ethan Manor.

Zhao Chuanxin pushed open the door and walked out in the corridor.

A servant appeared and screamed hysterically when he saw Zhao Chuanxin: "Ah..."

Zhao Chuanxin said angrily: "What the hell are you crying for? If you scream again, I'll cut off your little tongue."

The servant not only didn't stop screaming, but turned around and ran away.

For a moment, Freddy Pavitt was carrying the Lugang M1907, followed by Li Shutong who was holding a stove hook, and Liu Yuanshan who was very confident in his own skills with his bare hands.

"Master?" Freddy Pavitt was dumbfounded when he saw Zhao Chuanxin. "When did you come back?"

Zhao Chuanxin said dissatisfied: "Who are you looking for? He doesn't even recognize the head of the family?"

Freddy Pavitt put down his gun: "The previous servants left, so we have to recruit new ones."

Liu Yuanshan was extremely surprised to see Zhao Chuanxin: "Brother Charcoal Worker."

Zhao Chuanxin walked over and touched her head, making Liu Yuanshan's eyes widen and he took a step back shyly.

"Brother Yuanshan, haven't you grown much this year?"

Liu Yuanshan was stunned: "I won't be able to live longer in this life."

Li Shutong just nodded lightly towards Zhao Chuanxin: "Charcoal worker, you are here."

Zhao Chuanxin first went to the basement and put some bottles and jars of art collected after returning to China into dustproof and moisture-proof display cabinets.

Then the group went to the reception room.

Freddie Pavitt praised: "Master, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are looking even more energetic."

Freddie Pavitt was a man of etiquette and detail.

Zhao Chuanxin was well-dressed in suits and leather shoes, his leather shoes were polished, his hair and beard were meticulously groomed, and he also wore a pair of glasses that made him less murderous and more gentle. This made Freddy Pavitt feel relaxed and happy when he saw him. Except that three buttons of Zhao Chuanxin’s shirt were unbuttoned, which was very disgraceful...

Zhao Chuanxin sat on the sofa with one foot casually on the coffee table in front of him, lit a cigar and asked, "What on earth does Philander Knox want from me?"

Freddy Pavitt shook his head: "He said there was something important, and he probably wanted to cooperate with the master, but he refused to elaborate on the specific matters with me."

Zhao Chuanxin was about to speak when the stars and moon appeared on his glasses: You need to get rid of the jet lag. Tonight we will transform the soft gold armor. We will set off tomorrow to increase the probability of suitable teleportation locations for the energy fluctuation convergence rune fragments. I plan to need two days, you'd better meet him in two days.

Zhao Chuanxin swallowed back what he was about to say: "Make an appointment with him to meet here in two days."

Freddy Pavitt didn't tell Zhao about the transfer. Frand Knox was in New York at this time, so it wasn't a big deal to make him wait two more days.

"I'll tell him, sir."

Putting this matter aside for the time being, Zhao Chuanxin asked Liu Yuanshan: "Brother Yuanshan, how is your studies going?"

Liu Yuanshan did not complain about how many looks he had received this year, how many times he had been discriminated against, or how difficult it was for a girl to study in a foreign country.

She didn't say any of this.

She said with excitement on her face: "There is a lot to learn, mainly hard coal coking, hard coal steelmaking, tar dye industry, such as the British William Henry Platinum's method of mass production of aniline purple. Carbon fiber for light bulbs I also dabble in various conductors, insulators and semiconductor materials. In addition, there are electroplating, electrolysis, electric welding, electric spark and other processes. However, brother carbon worker, the most amazing one is celluloid. Do you know what it is? The instructor also said that more synthetic materials will appear in the future, and our world will undergo earth-shaking changes. Before going abroad, I never thought that I would see a brand new world..."

Celluloid? Isn't it just plastic?

Zhao Chuanxin knows it all too well.

He was more excited than she was: "Have you learned everything?"

Liu Yuanshan's eyes were firm: "I dare not say that I have learned it, but I have learned what I have learned, even if I don't understand it, I still have to remember it when I light a lamp and boil oil. Sometimes I don't understand the meaning of those words, so I ask someone to confirm it repeatedly. Until I understand. Brother Tan Gong, I won’t let you spend your money in vain.”

Zhao Chuanxin really admires the people of this era. He can't figure out whether they are really smart, or whether the environment forces them to be more motivated than others, or for other reasons.

Liang Qichao learned Japanese on the way to Japan, Li Shutong was even more incredible, and eventually became proficient in all the arts he came into contact with, while Liu Yuanshan, a little girl who didn't even know English before, had a very poor foundation. Keep up with college.

Thinking about it this way, Zhao Chuanxin felt very embarrassed, as he seemed to be the worst.

Seeing Zhao Chuanxin pondering, Liu Yuanshan said without confidence: "Brother Tan Gong, I have an unkind request."

Zhao Chuanxin came to his senses: "You said it."

"I want an interference microscope." Liu Yuanshan said sheepishly.

Microscopes are very expensive, and interference microscopes are even more expensive. Interference microscopes are micromolecular interference microscopes. In fact, they are infinitely close to the standards of metallographic microscopes, and of course they are not electronic.

While Zhao Chuanxin was thinking about it, Liu Yuanshan explained anxiously: "If there is an interference microscope, I guarantee that I will treat it as a treasure."

Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth: "Stop talking, stop talking, our family has the conditions, buy it!"

Actually, there is a condition. He glanced at Freddy Pavitt: "Can you squeeze out the money for a microscope from the food truck gang?"

Freddy Pavitt smiled: "Sir, let alone the food truck gang, even Andrew Miller of the Chamber Pot God Cult can easily get you the money for a microscope."

I blanch...

If Freddy Pavitt hadn't been mentioned, Zhao Chuanxin would have almost forgotten that there was such a person.

There was a magician who was instigated in the prison. It seemed that this magician was prospering in cheating and drinking.

Zhao Chuanxin immediately made the decision: "Okay, I will raise money from Andrew Miller to buy an interference microscope, and I will leave this matter to you."

While they were talking, Li Shutong, who was silent, hesitated to speak several times.

When they finished speaking, he lost his courage and swallowed his words.

But Zhao Chuanxin did not let him go: "Xishuang, what about you, have you learned the piano and violin?"

Li Shutong said concisely and concisely: "Yes."

"What else?"

"Do you mean an opera or a stage play? I can perform on stage, but they won't allow me because of my Chinese identity." At this point, Li Shutong's face looked dejected.

When faced with injustice, Liu Yuanshan became more and more courageous, but Li Shutong became decadent.

Zhao Chuanxin scratched his ears. The naughty New Yorkers really care about food but not fights.

After chatting for a while, Li Shutong asked Zhao Chuanxin when he would leave this time.

Zhao Chuanxin said: "If nothing unexpected happens, I will leave in two days."

It's December 12st in New York, and under the street lights in the yard outside, you can still vaguely see the Christmas decorations.

Li Shutong heard how anxious he was and finally couldn't help but said: "Charcoal worker, I want to return to China."

"..."

Zhao Chuanxin had no objection to this, but the first thing he thought of was that although they were in different schools, Liu Yuanshan must have felt that he and Li Shutong were companions in the United States. Whenever he returned to Isen Manor, he could still meet and reminisce about old times. If Li Shutong If he leaves, Liu Yuanshan will definitely feel lost.

The Qing court liked to hire foreign engineers, but Zhao Chuanxin felt that only his own people were reliable.

Zhao Chuanxin looked at Liu Yuanshan, and sure enough, Liu Yuanshan's face was full of astonishment.

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Chuanxin said to Liu Yuanshan: "Brother Yuanshan, I am going to set up a study abroad department and send our Chinese students to study here. Massachusetts Institute of Technology is only more than ten hours away from New York, so I hired you as a study abroad department. Minister, responsible for studying abroad, how about it?”

Liu Yuanshan had not been lost for long when he was suddenly "entrusted with an important task". He was caught off guard and nervously said instinctively: "It won't work. How can I take care of it? I don't recognize anyone, and they may not listen to me. I... …”

"Essentially, this is a hometown association, so that everyone will not be bullied when they come to a foreign country. When they feel wronged, they have someone to talk to. You are equivalent to a big sister and a study abroad consultant who specializes in giving guidance." Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth and smiled: "If no one listens to you, just reason with them. If it doesn't make sense, I remember that you also know some boxing and kicking skills? Just go ahead and do it. If you break it, it will be mine."

Liu Yuanshan: "..."

She completely forgot about the feeling of loss, she was in a state of confusion, and thought what Zhao Chuanxin said was funny.

At this time, Zhao Chuanxin nodded to Li Shutong: "Go back and let Freddy buy you a boat ticket. Maybe you can catch up with the Chinese New Year. After you go back, go to Lubin Mansion. I have something to do." It’s up to you to do it.”

Zhao Chuanxin also cannot let Li Shutong's head and body idle. Once they are idle, maybe this guy will transform into Master Hongyi...

Lao Zhao has deep prejudices against Buddhism.

Li Shutong was indeed curious and asked: "I can't carry it with my shoulders, so what can I do?"

"I will teach art in schools in Lubin Mansion. In addition, I will open a theater and you will be in charge." This is all part of Zhao Chuanxin's plan. "When the time comes, I'll find someone to ask you to make a movie and be the director."

Li Shutong was indecisive and often had the idea of ​​passively retreating from the world.

But he is not afraid of what he is good at. Not only is he not nervous, but his eyes are shining: "Theatre? Movie? In Lubin Mansion?"

"Why, are you looking down on our Lubin Mansion? There are many Chinese and Russians in Lubin Mansion. Mao Zi is very talented in art. Don't let them destroy the prestige and morale. I know a child who can sing opera twice as well. Hello. Once the theater opens, it’s guaranteed to be full.”

Li Shutong thought of something and asked: "Is the theater open to all scholars, peasants, industrialists, and merchants, or is it only gentry?"

"Even the beggar can enter, provided of course he buys a ticket."

Li Shutong said excitedly: "Okay, I will live up to your trust."

Zhao Chuanxin dismissed them.

He didn't go back to sleep. Why did he sleep when he just woke up?
Arriving at the fitness room where Miao Cuihua and the others used to practice dancing, Zhao Chuanxin regarded it as a temporary studio.

He released the black puppet craftsmen and puppet slaves to make preparations, while he took stock of his equipment first.

He had taken Dali Pills, there was a hemostatic film in his blood, stone water with full anti-toxic properties, he drank a bottle of vitality potion, Naxin potion and several bottles of Nutritional Express, and his body had intricate starry sky roots that could absorb solar energy. , has a heart of the Holy Spirit that can sense nature, and has an additional limb formed from a soulless body on his arm...

Fire of the Old Gods is an inexhaustible source of energy that can be paired with Cauldron Brand of the Old Gods and Ethereal Traveler.

The original Fortitude Armor and Fire-Concentrating Armor have now been dismantled into a pile of materials.

There are two cornerstones of the ladder.

A hammer of Thor.

A mud trowel glove.

The shadow cloak struck.

The Vertigo Light was passed to Benjamin Goldberg.

There are three old sacred altars with 60 bronze eyes made of true seeing crystal.

A vocal organ.

A pair of violent armor.

Greetings from Lord Runzhi.

The scale shield and the Dragon Capturing Ring made from the piranha throat bone were both damaged in the battle.

A set of Balrog underwear that fully enhances his cold resistance properties.

Of the ten pocket technologies, seven were integrated into the Secret Realm Pendant. The remaining three were given to the eldest disciple Benjamin, and two are left in his hand. One will be passed on to Yao Bing in the future, and the remaining one is to be determined.

An indestructible gray cutter.

A pair of desert roots.

A stone of answers.

A cyclone kitchen knife.

Ball No. 13 was dismantled by Xingyue. He holds it in his hands every day. He doesn’t know whether it has become patinated or whether it has become jade...

Several explosive arrows and two throwing knives.

A pair of soft gold armor, equipped with a dragon's breath launcher and a demon's precognition visor.

A lightsaber.

An elf carving knife.

With the M1907 cruise rockets and the rain of pear blossom needles that will kill you...

and various firearms and ammunition.

Zhao Chuanxin felt that there was still room for optimization in the equipment library, with less effort and improved strength.

Xingyue said: "I need your help."

Zhao Chuanxin put away the equipment lying on the floor.

Xingyue said: "I want to remove the short worm silk from the soft gold armor and use the long silk we grabbed from the treasure house. It will improve the mobility. The original fire armor saw boatworm shell material is high in strength and is installed on the soft gold armor. The back of the armor, under the ribs, the inside of the arms, and the insides of the legs are used to pull the black dragon's wings."

Zhao Chuanxin's eyes lit up when he saw the structural diagram given by Xingyue on his glasses: "Can it fly?"

"It can't fly, it's just gliding." Xingyue denied: "This is to prepare you for using the energy fluctuation convergence rune fragments. If the location that appears next is high in the sky, at least it will give you the ability to glide and prevent you from falling to death."

"..."

The shell of the shipworm is combined with soft gold armor, and is controlled by central control runes to retract and pull the worm threads.

The insect silk is connected to the black dragon wings that Zhao passed down from the Salamander Tribe before, a kind of transparent wings that are thin, soft but very tough.

Usually, the black dragon's wings are rolled up in a miniature cabin made of the shell of a shipworm. When necessary, they are pulled out by worm silk and held in place under the armpits and ribs. The same operation is done between the legs, which is equivalent to a wing suit.

There are four long and short wings on the back of Zhao Chuanxin made from the inner membrane of the sawfly. They are modified from the fire-collecting cloak made from the inner membrane of the sawfly. The two long wings can be unfolded horizontally to increase the wind resistance area, and they can also be adjusted vertically, but they cannot fan. Two short wings adjust the direction horizontally behind the back.

The only drawback is that the Soft Gold Armor loses the function of the Fire Armor to maintain balance and stability when stepping on the Misty Traveler at high speeds, but it increases its ability to stay in the air after being knocked upside down, so there will never be an accident like rolling in the air.

Zhao Chuanxin searched the Desert Emperor's treasure house for several materials that could be used to fill and seal the soft gold armor joints.

Will install them all tonight.

Zhao Chuanxin, the black puppet craftsman and the puppet slave were busy all night long.

Until the morning light opened slightly, Zhao Chuanxin stretched and finally pulled out the last worm thread.

The soft golden armor was closed, Zhao Chuanxin helped it up, got into it and tried it for a while, but found no problems before declaring it completed.

Xingyue said: "The refresh time of the "Old God Code" has changed from night to morning. The progress cannot be delayed. I need the fearless vanguard to teleport to Rune City to ask for the remaining logic integration manuscripts from the descendants of the nobles."
