After Chu Shi had finished asking He Guizang some questions, Lin Dong’s video call came through.
The screen showed several dishes.
“He Guizang, take a look, what do you want to eat? And what kind of staple food do you want? Rice or steamed buns?”
He Guizang looked at the dishes on the video screen. Most of them were meat dishes. After all, there were many soldiers on this side of the portal. Men naturally needed to eat plenty of meat.
“Hmm, first help me get some staple food. I don’t want rice, and I don’t want steamed buns.”
“No rice or steamed buns for staple food? What, do you want noodles?”
The screen immediately switched to a large plate of noodles.
“No, no, no, I don’t want noodles either. I want plain congee. For staple food, I want plain congee. For the dishes, just get some vegetables. And then get more pickled vegetables. Also, the dishes and the congee must be separate. I don’t want the congee to get any oil on it.”
Lin Dong said, “Alright, alright, I understand. I’ll pack them separately for you.”
Then, Lin Dong hung up the video call.
He Guizang suddenly remembered the plain congee he had just ordered. He said, “Hmm, right, we actually have rice now. Have our rice paddies started harvesting?”
Chu Shi said, “Yes, in the three days you were unconscious, the rice paddies in the dinosaur world have started to be harvested one after another. We are exploring the front lines, so this new rice has been sent over.”
After harvesting the rice, not all of it needed to be sun-dried, as there was also the method of baking it dry. It was normal for harvested rice to become white rice in just a few hours. This batch of rice was sent over first.
Soon, Lin Dong arrived with a thermal insulated container.
“Here it comes! Plain congee, vegetables, and pickled vegetables are here. He Guizang, you should know, I had to rent this thermal container to pack this. You know, disposable plastic products are not allowed here, so don’t even think about disposable lunch boxes, they don’t exist. Now, if you want to pack anything from the cafeteria, you have to rent these thermal containers. And the deposit for these containers is one hundred dragon coins. Of course, the rental fee for these containers is only forty cents.”
Lin Dong said as he took out the vegetables and pickled vegetables from the thermal container. Then he poured out the plain congee.
He Guizang took a mouthful of plain congee, and a happy smile appeared on his face. He said, “I haven’t had plain congee in so long. It’s delicious. Thank you, country.”
While eating, He Guizang suddenly remembered the issue of cleaning the thermal container.
“Right, Lin Dong, how do you clean this thermal container?”
“It’s very simple. Just put the thermal container back into the thermal container recycling bin, and it will be collected. Of course, each individual plate inside the thermal container needs to be taken out. If even one plate is missing, a corresponding portion of the deposit will be deducted. The recycling bin will then send these thermal containers to an automatic dishwasher for cleaning. These automatic dishwashers use World 3 technology. Even deep containers like thermal containers can be automatically adjusted no matter how they are placed. It can be said that with scientific technology, life in Dragon Country has been changing with each passing day.”
Su Han listened for a while and said, “Alright, He Guizang, you stay here and enjoy your plain congee. We’re going to have a proper meal.”
Then, Su Han left. The others also left one after another. The only one left was Lin Dong, who was waiting patiently for He Guizang to finish eating and return the thermal container.
After Su Han left, he didn’t actually go to the cafeteria to eat, because Su Han had already finished his meal.
Su Han went directly to the training area to continue cultivating the “Qi Refining True Manual.”
After cultivating for a while, Su Han felt that he needed to go to an area with more profound spiritual energy to practice.
So, Su Han decided to go to those discovered areas with abundant spiritual energy to examine the concentration of spiritual energy.
Therefore, under the escort of a team of guards, Su Han took a hovercar to an area with abundant spiritual energy. That area was the chosen candidate location for the Xuan Sect.
It was on a mountain peak.
As soon as Su Han arrived on this mountain peak, he clearly felt that the spiritual energy here was far higher than at the portal. The concentration of spiritual energy was almost the same as at the location occupied by the Qingfeng Sect.
Sects were usually established in deep mountains with abundant spiritual energy. In other words, sects occupied areas with rich spiritual energy. Only in such areas would cultivation be faster.
Su Han sensed that cultivating in such a place was indeed faster. However, it was still not enough. Su Han was looking for a place with even more concentrated spiritual energy.
“Not enough, still not enough. This place cannot give birth to a first-class sect. Other locations. Hmm, next we will go and see another location.”
A nearby guard said, “Vice Minister Su Han, the other locations are more than a thousand kilometers away from here. Let’s let other explorers reach the Qi Refining stage before going to explore further.”
Su Han thought about it and no longer paid too much attention. After all, there were so many sects in this world. These sects must occupy a large number of spiritually rich areas. Those blessed lands needed to be searched carefully.
Su Han returned directly to the base next to the portal.
At this time, Su Han remembered the matter of cultivation techniques. So, Su Han called Ye Fan, Xiao Yan, and Chu Shi over.
After they had all arrived, Su Han said, “Chu Shi, we are going out next. Do you have someone to take over your office work?”
Chu Shi nodded and said, “Yes, it’s no problem for me to leave. Someone will be doing office work here. Vice Minister Su Han, where do you want to go?”
Su Han said, “Hmm, our cultivation techniques are really too few. So I decided to go to that White Crane Cultivator Street to have a look. After all, there are many cultivator shops there. Maybe we can buy some good things there.”
Chu Shi said, “The shops on Cultivator Street require spirit stones for transactions. After we dealt with the entire Qingfeng Sect, we only obtained three thousand spirit stones. The purchasing power of these spirit stones is very limited.”
Su Han remembered that in novels, some sects would have spirit stone mines, so he asked, “What about spirit stone mines? Why haven’t I heard of any spirit stone mines? Does the Qingfeng Sect not have any spirit stone mines?”
Chu Shi shook his head and said, “Sorry, there are no spirit stone mines. During the interrogation, the Qingfeng Sect did not have any spirit stone mines. The Qingfeng Sect obtained spirit stones through herb cultivation.”
“Hmm, it seems we also need a way to obtain spirit stones.”
