Kato Megumi wants to learn magic
Page 196
The contract was signed and the cooperation was confirmed. After a few interactions, the Xie family became Longting County's exclusive iron ore supplier, just like Sun Baoquan. One was iron ore, and the other was salt. The two most lacking things in Longting County had been solved, and the county had reached a new level of development.
With sufficient iron ore support, Hanyun also accelerated the production of equipment and soon developed a semi-automatic machine for farming. Of course, this method was learned from the books in Kato Megumi's inventory.
Although it still requires human operation, the efficiency is seven or eight times faster than before.
Moreover, in other aspects, with enough iron attacks, the equipment of the Longting Army no longer has to rely entirely on Kato Megumi's inventory, but there is a real source of output.

Doomsday Natural Disaster Leaps Over Dragon Gate: Chapter 408 Chapter Xie Ying Comes to Talk
Therefore, the relationship between the Xie family and Longting can be considered quite close. In the past, the Xie family sent people to transport iron ore, and occasionally the head of the Xie family would come a few times to exchange feelings and take a look at the development trend of Longting County.
However, the head of Xie family did not come this time, but the one who came was the eldest daughter of Xie family who had never been here before. Kato Megumi had only heard of her name but not her real self. After all, she found out that Xie Jing was a chatterbox and a daughter slave after getting along with her. When the two of them were talking, the other party could not stop talking about his daughter. It seemed that in the other party's eyes, his daughter was the most powerful daughter who could do anything, was well-behaved, cute, heroic and valiant. In short, she had everything.
Even Kato Hui couldn't stand hearing others praising her daughter from time to time, even one-third of the conversation was like this. Therefore, when the head of the Xie family left, she immediately gave the task of entertaining the other party to Wang Tong! This was to relieve her worries.
As for Wang Tong's feelings? Well, I guess the two of them should get along well! She doesn't need to care about these things. People are there to be used anyway. Although Wang Tong is old, in Kato Hui's heart, he is still very young. He should talk to him to broaden his horizons and gain experience.
However, Xie Jing always said that her daughter was very good, and I don’t know what the real person would be like, Kato Hui thought.
But soon, she saw Xie Ying who was brought up.
The first thing that caught my eye when I saw Kato Megumi was her temperament. She was calm and peaceful, quiet and cool. Her beautiful eyes were full of curiosity and reserve. Coupled with her small and cute yet cool face and slightly raised eyebrows, she seemed to give people a refreshing feeling.
Kato Megumi was a little dazed. No wonder Xie Jing kept praising his daughter. She was indeed not bad. Although she was far inferior to Miss Witch, she was indeed not bad for ordinary people. No wonder the other party kept saying that he was afraid that some bastard would marry his daughter.
"You are the master of Longting County, the Dragon Lady everyone is talking about!"
"It's all because of the people's love. You can call me Sister Hui."
Kato Megumi replied with a smile.
"You must be the Xie Ying that Xie Jing mentioned... No wonder Xie Jing always said that you are her favorite daughter. You are indeed very good. Please take a seat..."
"Sure enough, my father mentioned me in front of you."
Xie Ying sighed and frowned.
"I knew that this was a bad habit of his, and it seems that he still hasn't changed. However, my father mentioned you to me, and now that we've met, you're just as my father said, very kind and pretty."
Xie Ying was not polite and sat down aside. From her expression and tone, it could be seen that the other party was praising her sincerely. In response, Kato Megumi just smiled and said nothing.
"I heard from the people down there that you came here yesterday afternoon. It seems like you've also taken a look around here. What do you think?"
"I've always heard from my father that you are very mysterious and capable. Now Xie Ying has come to see it with her own eyes. After the trip, there are only two words to describe it, that is, prosperity."
Hearing this, Kato Megumi's brows relaxed and she praised: Who wouldn't like such a lovely girl?
"However, there is a shortcoming here, and I don't know if I should mention it."
"Um... please go ahead."
"That is, the circulation of materials here depends on the government. Whether it is clothing or food, everything is controlled by the government. Under such circumstances, it is inevitable that some of them will be solidified and not circulated. Although this is already good under natural disasters, from what I can see and the information I have inquired, you seem to have the ability to solve the problem of food production, right?"
"In that case, why don't you take the opportunity to open up businesses, diversify the entire market, and bring new vitality to Longting County? This will not only let people outside know about this place, but also add more novel products here, inject vitality into the market, kill three birds with one stone, why not do it?"
After hearing what Xie Ying said, Kato Megumi paused, blinked, and looked at Xie Ying curiously.
"You want me to open my own business and be the first one to try it out?"
When faced with questions from Kato Megumi, Xie Ying was unusually shy.
"I knew I couldn't hide it from Sister Hui. Although I don't know why I wanted to be the first to try it, I did mean to do so. The soil here is so good. As someone who likes doing business, this is no less than a piece of soil covered with pearls, just waiting for me to dig. Not to mention that this piece of soil will expand..."
Xie Ying paused when she said this.
"What do you think?"
"This matter...is actually not allowed."
In response to Xie Ying's question, Kato Hui pondered.
"I've thought about this before. After all, people's living standards have improved. If there is no worry about food, there must be a place to spend it. Only if there is consumption can there be motivation. I know this."
"It's just that I've been quite busy lately, and I've had a lot of things to do, so I can't help but lack the energy to focus on this matter. In addition, ordinary people simply can't transport or protect goods under natural disasters and man-made disasters, so I've put this matter aside."
Having said that, Kato Hui looked up at Xie Ying and then smiled.
"Since you have this intention, I naturally have no reason to refuse. You can discuss this matter with Wang Tong later, and an announcement will be made later. It's okay for you to eat this crab if you think highly of Longting."
When Xie Ying heard Kato Megumi's agreement, she smiled happily.
"Thank you, Sister Hui!"
"However, as you know, our currency here is a specially made dragon coin, while the outside world still uses gold and silver. Although we support exchange, the quantity is limited. You have to consider this carefully!"
"Do not worry!"
Xie Ying assured.
"No one can do business better than me. I, Xie Ying, am confident that my clients will accept the new currency. Not to mention that gold and silver have depreciated significantly nowadays. In this case, I think it is not impossible to use Dragon Coins to replace gold and silver and use them as a store of value. It just depends on how to operate it."
Hearing what Xie Ying said, Kato Hui looked at her with interest. She didn't expect that the girl in front of her would think of this step, and it seemed that she wanted to use dragon coins to replace the circulation of gold and silver.
Kato Megumi naturally would not say anything discouraging about this, but instead gave her support.
"As long as you think about it, there will be no problem on my side, as long as you don't regret it!"
"Hehe, I, Xie Ying, will never regret it! Besides, I like doing business. Even if I lose everything, I have gained experience. I can afford to lose."
Kato Megumi looked at Xie Ying with amusement. Is this the confidence of the rich second generation?
I have enough experience, so I can afford to lose! Whether I win or lose, I can gain valuable experience.
"Oh, by the way, I have another mission this time when I come to Xie Ying. I want to give you something."
As if remembering something, Xie Ying took out a precious box from her arms and handed it to Kato Hui.
Doomsday Natural Disaster Leaps Over Dragon Gate: Chapter 409 Chapter Obtaining the Orb Dragon Enters the Sea
"Huh? This is..."
After taking the box, Kato Hui looked at Xie Ying with a face full of doubts.
"My father asked me to give this to you. Please open it and take a look!"
"Um, is it a gift?"
Kato Megumi looked at the exquisite box in front of her, pushed the buckle, and slowly opened it.
What comes into view is a thumb-sized bead, crystal clear and emitting a bright light, like a beautiful night pearl, emitting bursts of soothing halo.
"this is?"
Kato Megumi picked up the beads, looked at them carefully, and could feel a strange power from them.
Xie Ying smiled.
"Isn't it beautiful? This bead is actually our family's treasure. It is a treasure that can suppress and gather luck! The reason why our Xie family has become a not-so-bad family in the local area is precisely because of this bead."
Hearing Xie Ying's words, Kato Hui was a little surprised.
"If it's such a precious treasure, why give it to me... Could it be that your father has other requests that require my help?"
"Ahaha, no, there is actually a reason for this. My father didn't ask for anything."
Xie Ying smiled and then explained the reason.
He explained the causes and consequences of how his ancestor obtained the beads, and stated that Kato Megumi was the destined person.
"My father told me that the bead was originally very large, as big as a fist. However, as time passed, it seemed that it had exhausted its spiritual power, and the bead gradually became smaller, and finally became the size it is today. Its function of gathering and suppressing luck is no longer very effective."
"So this kind of thing is useless to keep at home. Besides, I met you, my sister, who is destined to be with me. According to the instructions of the national teacher, I should return it to you. Since you are my sister, I believe you and this bead will have a great fate, and this bead can also restore its previous spirituality~"
After hearing what Xie Ying said, Kato Hui nodded thoughtfully, and then put the beads back into the box.
"In that case, I will accept it without hesitation... But can the so-called national master you mentioned really predict what I will be like hundreds of years from now?"
Kato Megumi asked in confusion.
Xie Ying's face was filled with excitement.
"Sister, don't you know? The most powerful skill of the Imperial Master is divination."
"Back then, the State Master was as famous as Emperor Gaozu. It was precisely because of the State Master's divination skills, measuring the heavens and the earth, and predicting ghosts and gods, that Emperor Gaozu's army was invincible and unstoppable."
"Moreover, the Imperial Master is not an ordinary person, but an orthodox cultivator who is still alive today and has been alive for hundreds of years."
Having said this, Xie Ying sighed.
"If the Imperial Master had not been in seclusion, how could this natural disaster have turned out like this..."
Seeing Xie Ying's regretful expression, Kato Megumi looked at her with a smile.
"Yes, if he hadn't been in seclusion, how could our Dragon Court Army exist... Speaking of which, you seem to admire the National Master very much, so why do you want to get involved with us..."
Kato Megumi asked curiously.
"Hehe, the Imperial Master is the Imperial Master, but the Imperial Dynasty is not the Imperial Master's Dynasty. You have to know that it has been hundreds of years since Emperor Gaozu died, and the throne has changed many times. To be honest, the Imperial Dynasty today is indeed not as prosperous and powerful as it was at the beginning. It is like a huge fir tree, which looks bright and beautiful on the outside, but has been eaten away by termites on the inside."
Xie Ying could see it very well and understood the current situation very well, so she separated the national teacher from the imperial dynasty.
"Even if there hadn't been this natural disaster, the dynasty wouldn't have lasted much longer. After all, the new princess had just ascended the throne, and she had no power in her hands. All the power was in the hands of the aristocratic families in the court. Not to mention the outside world, the ambitious Prince Zhennan openly raised private soldiers and was plotting something shady. With internal and external troubles, it would explode one day."
"Even if it wasn't a natural disaster, it would have been something else. Anyone with a sense of the overall situation can understand this. It's just that any help is better than nothing. How can the glamorous upper class care about these things? Maybe they are even hoping that this day will come as soon as possible so that they can show their talents..."
Xie Ying curled her lips. At such a young age, she seemed to understand everything clearly. Kato Megumi thought again and realized that it was true. A capable person has nothing to do with age. Without a sense of the overall situation, how could one be free and easy in this chaotic world and show one's abilities?
Afterwards, Kato Megumi chatted with Xie Ying for a while, focusing on the national master who had been rumored for a long time but had never been seen; from the other party, Kato Megumi also learned about the status of the national master. It was because of the existence of the national master that the imperial dynasty avoided many natural disasters and man-made calamities, but it was also because of the existence of the national master that the imperial dynasty’s ability to resist disasters was poor, resulting in this natural disaster being much more serious than before.
It can be seen that this imperial teacher is the mainstay of the dynasty and has considerable abilities, but he has not appeared in the world for a long time. Some people have speculated whether the imperial teacher has passed away and the news has been covered up by the dynasty.
No matter what, since the other party is so capable, the so-called luck bead given by him would naturally not be a useless thing. Miss Witch has always said that the opportunity has not yet come. Could it be that this bead is her opportunity?
After watching Xie Ying leave, Kato Hui picked up the shiny beads and examined them carefully.
The white surface was smooth and delicate, and she could faintly feel an obscure aura slowly flowing around her body. Kato Megumi lowered her eyes and thought. At this moment, a ray of light flashed, and she seemed to see something out of the corner of her eye. At the same time, a vague desire seemed to arouse her heart. Bailong, who had closed his eyes to rest in his spiritual sea, slowly opened his eyes.
Kato Megumi was stunned for a moment, then looked carefully, but it seemed like it was just an illusion and she found nothing.
She pursed her lips and thought for a while, then with a thought, a white dragon as thick as a thumb suddenly jumped out. In just a moment, the white dragon pounced on the bead, as if it had seen some rare treasure, and bit the bead in its mouth with a roar, and then quickly jumped back into the sea of spirituality.
The white dragon held the pearl in its mouth, carrying the spoils, and quickly circled around the stopped nebula several times. Then it let out a silent roar and spat out the pearl in its mouth.
As soon as the bead appeared, it began to rotate around the source, leaving a wonderful rhythm and trace. Like a satellite of a star, it began to move the golden original power in the core of the nebula with an inexplicable force, producing tides again and again.
Kato Megumi opened her eyes wide. She could feel that the dead core of the nebula had power. She could also feel that the original power above and the small beads surrounding it had an inexplicable pulling force.
Doomsday Natural Disaster Leaps Over Dragon Gate: Chapter 410 Chapter Problems Not Solved, Mind Settled
From afar, the core of the nebula looks like a planet. The white force is the land, the golden original force is the ocean, and the small beads surrounding it are like satellites. As the surrounding nebula rotates, the tiny satellites drive the ocean on the planet to flow slowly. Everything seems just right and full of rhythm.
The little white dragon hovered comfortably above the core, as if it was lying in its own nest, as if it felt that the renovation of its nest was quite good. The two complemented each other, and its body underwent unspeakable changes.
Kato Megumi saw all of this.
The appearance of the beads caused the stagnant core of the nebula to begin to move. The power in the core was no longer solidified glue, but had turned into a slowly flowing liquid, changing step by step.
And the thumb-sized beads, because of the mutual complementation, began to shine again in the spiritual sea and underwent further positive changes.
Kato Megumi was certain now. It seemed that this was the opportunity that Miss Witch had been talking about.
Kato Megumi was amazed at this method that could predict future possibilities like a supercomputer.
Unfortunately, this method is beyond her current ability to learn, so she can only sigh in despair. Moreover, Miss Witch also said that she actually has a similar ability, which is Kato Megumi's intuition.
It’s a pity that people’s talents are biased. Once a person has this passive ability similar to intuition, he can no longer learn in the direction of active prediction, because this often results in no talent, because the talent in the soul has long been biased towards the passive side.
Therefore, even if she wanted to learn, she probably didn't have the ability to learn it well.
Although she felt a little regretful, Kato Megumi did not have any particular regretful emotions. After all, her intuition had saved her many times and avoided many troubles, allowing her to be mentally prepared for the future. Compared to divination, this passive ability might be more suitable for her who traveled between different worlds. Therefore, this feeling of regret only flashed through her mind and was thrown behind her.
The opportunity had indeed been encountered, and the core of the nebula was no longer as worrying as before, like a stuck gear.
However, the problem in the body has not been completely solved, because he still cannot control the nebula in his body. Although the core has moved, this is only an improvement for Kato Megumi, and the most fundamental problem has not been solved.
In this regard, Miss Witch gave a conclusion that was neither good nor bad after observation.
