The next morning, Fang Ning rubbed his eyes. He did not sleep last night. Instead, he stayed up all night thinking about how to catch that damned parasite.
He could not let it continue to wreak havoc.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard Fang Ning racked his brains, it was all to no avail against the Upper Realm's vicious and secretive methods.
Fang Ning was about to go back for a nap when he was called by Sir System. Zheng Dao had sent him a document through QQ. It was extremely important and it was best to read it immediately.
"Responding and Judging to the New Era's New Situation – Notice Forwarded to All Collaborating Units."
Was it from the Truth Department?
Fang Ning opened the document with this thought in mind and read the content.
"The Era of Vitality has entered its third year. To reshape the public's perception and improve their understanding of the Era of Vitality's uniqueness, 'Era Change' is imminent. It is proposed to change it to the 'Shenyuan' era. The year 2017 will be the 'Year One of Shenyuan', and this year will be the 'Year Three of Shenyuan'.
…
The core problem of the Era of Vitality is the sharp conflict between the increasing safety needs of the people and the increasingly dangerous external environment.
…
The development plan of productivity in the new situation must focus on improving safety and defense capabilities.
The vitality medicine industry, alchemy industry, and artifact manufacturing industry should be vigorously developed …
The research on basic abilities should be strengthened, and a new cultivation system should be established with the authority of the Dragon Clan as the standard to guide the people's cultivation.
… "
The notice was not a novel. It was very boring, but the meaning revealed between the lines was extremely important.
After reading the document, Fang Ning remembered that he was still the general manager of Harmony Powers Ltd. Of course, it was in the name of the Venerable Dragon God. No wonder they sent him this document.
This was very useful. In a sense, this was a benefit that the Truth Department gave to their collaborating units.
Any qualified businessman would understand the significance of being able to know the plans of the higher-ups in advance. Those who did not know would not be qualified.
Obviously, the Truth Department knew that in the new era, the effect of using kindness and affection to bind the powerhouses of the cultivation world was far more effective than various rules and regulations. When it came to the point of using the latter, it would probably be the time to reveal the dagger.
"Sir System, what do you think?" Fang Ning asked solemnly.
"I don't understand." Sir System answered honestly.
"Very good, you know your limits." Fang Ning was not surprised by this answer.
It would be a surprise if Sir System could understand it. No, it must be an accident …
"To put it simply, the recent series of events has finally allowed the higher-ups to completely understand the core issues and main contradictions of the current stage. They're starting to formally adjust the big plan," Fang Ning explained.
"I still don't understand. What does this have to do with us?" Sir System was puzzled.
"In short, we're going to be rich." Fang Ning was speechless.
"Hey, how did you know we're going to get rich?" Sir System asked excitedly.
Fang Ning pointed at a few lines on the report and said, "This is the wind gap! China was going to focus on developing these industries, which meant that Guo Jia was going to take the lead in investing. At that time, all kinds of resources, manpower, and material resources would be invested. The vitality medicine industry, the alchemy industry, the artifact manufacturing industry … These are all things that I had great foresight in the past. I had planned ahead and advocated for the development of these industries … "
"Uh, it's obviously the skills that I unlocked after leveling up. How did it become your foresight in your mouth?" Sir System was puzzled.
"Let's not talk about the others. Just the vitality medicine industry, the ones in the Draconic Arcane Realm, the Land of Heritage, the herbs planted by the Mountain Rat King in the mysterious valley outside, and the vitality medicine company managed by Old Man Zhao, which one of them wasn't planned by me two years ago …" Fang Ning listed them one by one confidently.
"You remember these old and rotten things very well." Sir System was speechless and could only say resentfully.
Fang Ning was too lazy to care about it and continued, "In this way, a huge amount of resources will be transferred from other industries to the cultivation industry. As the top manufacturers, we'll be able to take whatever we want. If we want to make money, it'll only take a few words. When that time comes, you won't have to worry about the difficulty of finding materials anymore. As long as you issue a bounty order, there will be resources to help us complete it. "
"That's great. Hey, I remember that you asked that Scientific Academy for Vitality to start researching the productivity of the Era of Vitality. Is it the same as this? "Sir System came to a sudden realization.
"Uh, you're finally smart. That's right, different paths lead to the same goal. It's all to improve the productivity of the Era of Vitality. How about it, you should be convinced by my vision of the big picture, right? You should know that I raised this question one step earlier than these higher-ups. "Fang Ning said proudly.
"How would I know when they raised it? Whatever you say. "Sir System nagged.
"I didn't hear you clearly. Speak louder."
"You're wise, Mr. Rich Boss."
"That's more like it." Fang Ning nodded in satisfaction. There were not many opportunities to subdue Sir System. It was only when it came to the big picture that Sir System could only be manipulated by him.
Although he was sure that he would not be able to match up to those wise masters who were experts in planning, it was still easy to crush Sir System. After all, Sir System only knew how to farm brainlessly.
At this moment, Vigilante A, who was patrolling in the sky, suddenly turned around and flew in the direction of Qi City.
After Fang Ning noticed, he was instantly confused. "It's still so early. Why are you going home instead of farming?"
"I want to go back and look at my property."
"Hmm, that's a good reason."
Fang Ning knew very well that Sir System was never a true hero. Everything it did was to increase its strength, satisfy its host's increasing need for safety, and increase its resistance against the increasingly dangerous external environment.
…
A few minutes later, Vigilante A stopped above the mysterious valley.
The place was surrounded by clouds and mist, shrouding half of the valley. Occasionally, a ray of sunlight would shine down, bringing light to the plants below.
In the valley, there was a constant "chirping" sound. "Chirp, chirp, chirp" sound rose and fell one after another.
Fang Ning looked carefully and quickly understood the reason.
It turned out that a group of wild sparrows had taken a fancy to the growing herbs below and would occasionally fly down to take a bite.
The growth of these herbs was related to the performance of the mountain rat family …
Although it was just a drop in the bucket, these mountain rats still climbed up and down, calling for their friends and actively chasing away these wild sparrows.
In fact, some of the staff had already set up nets and sheds nearby and put plastic bags on the herbs and fruits … to prevent these sparrows from causing trouble.
Shooting them with guns or using nets to capture them would not work. Who knew if these sparrows had developed sapience?
If they had developed sapience, then the consequences would be quite serious.
In the past, hunting sparrows was naturally prohibited, but at most, they would be punished by the human system.
Now, things were very different. If the sapient animals retaliated, there would be a variety of ways and it would be absolutely impossible to guard against them.
Just think about how humans used all kinds of traps to trap and kill animals, and you would know how many ways the sapient animals would use to deal with humans.
As businessmen, they were particular about making money with harmony. Before there was no major conflict of interest, they could not rashly provoke these birds, so they could only focus on defensive measures.
At this moment, the largest gray sparrow was jumping back and forth on the cliff, its eyes "rolling".
It was the first to find this good place, and it even secretly ate a lot of medicinal seeds. They were really nourishing, and it even flew a little faster.
Therefore, it brought more companions to eat together.
It did not expect the commotion to be so big that it quickly alerted the humans, and a group of rats came forward to help.
This made its little brain unable to process the situation. Humans had always been ruthless towards rats, why would they work together with them?
Sparrows could live peacefully with humans, but rats definitely could not.
It instinctively felt that the group of people below was very different from the people it had seen before, but it could not figure out why.
However, it knew that if it wanted to eat the delicious medicinal seeds, it had to put in more effort.
