The next night, Qing Yueqiu sat quietly behind her desk, seriously reviewing the documents in front of her.
Suddenly, she felt a cool breeze. When she raised her head, a dark figure was already sitting in front of her desk. It was Gui Quan, whom she had arranged to meet today.
Obviously, the other party had followed them yesterday and found their way here. The next day, he didn't go to the agreed place to meet. Instead, he came here in advance and chose a way that he thought was safer and more advantageous.
If a normal person saw a man wearing a white mask suddenly appear in front of them, they might scream or ask who you are. How did you get here? They might call for the guards or make some defensive moves.
However, Qing Yueqiu was different. She only raised her head to look at Zuo Zhicheng, who was disguised as Gui Quan, and then lowered her head to continue reviewing the documents. It was as if it was normal for Gui Quan to come here.
Zuo Zhicheng frowned. "Don't you have anything to say?"
"If you're referring to the matter of you sneaking into my office. I don't have anything to say. " Qing Yueqiu said coldly, "If you obediently went to the agreed place surrounded and monitored by my subordinates, you would really disappoint me."
Zuo Zhicheng thought to himself, 'The calm and rational type, huh? It's rare to see a woman like that.' This was also the type of person he hated the most, because it meant that it was not easy to get information or take advantage of this type of person.
"What's with the psionic food?" As Zuo Zhicheng spoke, he glanced at the documents on her desk. His gaze paused slightly on a certain document, but it was so slight that even Qing Yueqiu did not notice it.
Qing Yueqiu said, "About six months ago, Ri Huo received a bag of fruits from Brother Pa of the Hai Long Gang." Seeing Zuo Zhicheng looking at her, Qing Yueqiu nodded and said, "You're right. That bag of fruits is psionic food."
Qing Yueqiu then threw a document into Zuo Zhicheng's arms. Zuo Zhicheng read the document while listening to Qing Yueqiu's explanation.
"After Ri Huo ate the fruit that contained psionic energy, his strength began to grow abnormally. However, although it attracted the attention of the person in charge, Lin Gang Ho, at that time, because of the emergency situation of the Hai Long Gang, it wasn't placed first.
It wasn't until the Hundred Families Association invaded the Hai Long Gang's territory that Ri Huo's explosive growth entered our sights. What happened next was the same as what you saw in the document. Our people carried out all kinds of surveillance and investigation, and found the cause of everything. That is, Brother Pa obtained the spiritual food from who knows where.
We immediately put Brother Pa under control and tried to find the source of the psionic food. "
"However, that place was very special, and everything had to be done in secret, so it took a few months for us to successfully determine the entrance."
There was a moment of silence between the two. Obviously, Qing Yueqiu wouldn't casually tell Zuo Zhicheng more in-depth information.
After a few minutes of silence, Zuo Zhicheng opened his mouth and said, "What are your conditions?"
"Join us and explore that place with us." Qing Yueqiu said slowly, "After it's done, you take 20% and we take 80% of the psionic food. Everything else will belong to us."
Zuo Zhicheng pursed his lips. He naturally knew that the other party wouldn't really give such a price. She was just waiting for him to bargain. However, he wasn't in a hurry to bargain. He just said, "Is it very dangerous there?"
"The first two groups of people we sent in to explore haven't come out yet." Qing Yueqiu's tone was cold, "They are all the best soldiers, hunters, and explorers. They have a lot of experience."
"Hunters?" Zuo Zhicheng asked, "That place is in the mountains?"
"Yes. Are you interested? "
Zuo Zhicheng shook his head, "The reward is too little. All the psionic food will belong to me. Other than that, I can also choose three items from the spoils."
"Impossible." Qing Yueqiu's tone was still cold, "Without our information, you wouldn't even know about this place."
After the two of them haggled for a while, Zuo Zhicheng finally got half of the psionic food and the first choice of two items.
However, he knew that Qing Yueqiu must have taken advantage of this outcome. After all, he knew nothing about that place. He didn't even know anything about that place other than the psionic food. On the other hand, Qing Yueqiu had reached an agreement with him with more information.
If Yao Youwei were here, he would be very surprised that Qing Yueqiu had said so much. After all, he had been busy in New Continent City and accompanied Qing Yueqiu for so long. She probably didn't talk as much as she did today.
"Let's leave it at that for now. After I get the information, I'll see if I can make any changes."
After the discussion, Zuo Zhicheng asked, "Can you tell me what this place is now?" As for whether he would go or not, and whether he would change his previous conditions after looking at the information, that was another story.
"You should know that the East Coast of the New Continent has basically been occupied by the three inspectors of our dynasty. Before this place was colonized, it used to belong to several Khantes, Newmen, and Western Indian tribes," Qing Yueqiu started talking about a history that seemed to have nothing to do with the matter in front of them.
"However, before they came, this land had always been inhabited by various tribes and kingdoms. For example, about two to three thousand years ago, legend has it that this land was ruled by a kingdom called Amaliken. "
"As far as I know, before the Da Qi State arrived, the natives of the Western Continent were still based on tribes and families. There are no historical records that are absolutely trustworthy."
"That's indeed the case. However, almost all the natives of the New Continent can find clues about Amaliken in their ancient myths, legends, and anecdotes. Divine Kingdom, Immortal, Heaven, and Celestial People. They have different names among the different tribes on this land. They appear in various myths and legends.
Unfortunately, we haven't been able to find any evidence of Amaliken's existence. "
Zuo Zhicheng smiled, "Don't tell me that you found the Amaliken Kingdom this time?"
"We didn't find it, but we found a ruin that might be left behind by this kingdom." Qing Yueqiu's eyes were very serious, "We found a stone slab there, and there was a line of words carved on it in the language of the ancient continent."
"What words?"
"It's the City of White. In the myths and legends of the New Continent, that place is the center of Amaliken. It has gold everywhere, wine that can never be drunk, food that can never be eaten, and where the gods live. "
