Chapter 82: Calling the door in the middle of the night
Viola was confused, Bailong burst into tears, and on the other side of the screen, Li Chengqi nodded secretly.
After talking for a long time, Bailong finally asked Bailong to deliver the gold coins...
There is indeed no shortage of money for the current development of the Leon Territory. No matter how much money is spent on infrastructure construction and the army, it will not be able to spend nearly 40,000 gold coins in a short time.
But the territory is not short of money, but Li Chengqi is short of money.
Leon's territory is now stabilizing, and there is basically nothing going on. Li Chengqi just looks at Viola's prayers every day, and then looks at the vegetable field at the gate of the city. Occasionally I would see the tree elf tribe, but that's about it.
As for the idle game, the highlight is the 'hang', but there is no part where Li Chengqi interferes, and it feels a bit boring.
Then Li Chengqi thought that this game actually has three scripts, among which the martial arts script requires an inventory of 50,000 gold coins to unlock.
Originally, Li Chengqi was not in a hurry. After all, the Leon Territory was too small and too poor. Unless Viola led the army to leave the Leon Territory one day, or the factory being built now could sell the products, it would be impossible to fill up the debt. A hole worth more than 10,000 gold coins.
But the appearance of Bailong perfectly made up for this problem.
So Li Chengqi asked Bai Long to go to Leon Fortress with about 15,000 gold coins.
But I didn't expect Bailong to be so resistant.
"I'm just borrowing a little. It's not like I won't pay it back. Why are you crying so sadly?"
"For a dragon, gold coins may sometimes be more important than life."
Although Aldai couldn't see the game screen, she heard all the conversations between Li Chengqi and Bai Long.
"Thank you for saying it was a loan. If the white dragon were to give the gold coins to Viola for free, it would not do it even if it died."
"So exaggerated?"
"The only time a dragon can spend money is when the investment can bring greater returns. There is a very exaggerated saying that if you kill a dragon's whole family, it may not dare to take revenge because it is afraid of your strength. But If you touch its treasure, even if it breaks into pieces, it will still have to chew off two pieces of your flesh."
"Probably not..."
Even though Li Chengqi doesn't have much money, he really doesn't take money as a good thing. There are too many things in this world that are more important than money.
"Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is surprisingly convincing when placed on a dragon. They will worship the dragon god, but even if it is the god they worship, they will never touch their treasures. They often build the altar of the dragon god far away from their lair. Far away, I am afraid that the Dragon God will covet my treasure."
Ao Dai sat next to Li Chengqi and continued: "That white dragon is a young dragon. It doesn't have many treasures, and you said it was a loan. That's why it agreed."
"So, what I did was not very authentic?"
Suddenly I felt a little guilty.
But then I thought about it, I already borrowed it, it’s useless to think about it so much, the worst thing is to be nicer to Bailong in the future.
Having said that, although Bailong came with the treasure, the gold coin resource in the upper right corner has not changed.
This is because an inventory needs to be taken.
Gold coins are easy to say, just count them clearly, but Bailong's treasures can't all be gold coins. Gemstones and the like need to be appraised one by one to confirm their value, as well as other miscellaneous things, which can only be stored in the warehouse after they are all sorted.
Only after counting and warehousing, the number of gold coin resources in the upper right corner will change.
Li Chengqi knew this before when Viola sent soldiers to transport the treasure back, so it was impossible to unlock the martial arts copy immediately. It would take a day or two anyway.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Counting took time, and Li Chengqi didn't rush Viola. Anyway, it would only take a day or two at most.
Bailong fully showed his reluctance to let go of his treasure. He refused to leave and stayed in the fortress, as if he was afraid that the treasure he lent would not come back.
While Viola comforted Bai Long, she asked the soldiers to go out and inform the civilians that everything was okay. Bai Long was the messenger of the Demon King and God. Otherwise, there was no telling what trouble would be caused. It was said that many people were already preparing to load their luggage into the car. , obviously very scared.
Viola's side is very exciting, but Li Chengqi's side is unremarkable.
As time went by, night came again.
Li Chengqi closed the door and went upstairs to wash up briefly and prepare for dinner.
"Fire Dragon Armor together!" As soon as he came out of the bathroom, he saw Aldai standing in front of the TV, following the transformation actions of the tokusatsu drama.
She seems obsessed with this.
Originally, Aldai didn't seem to be very interested in television, because magic can also create a projection screen that can transmit sounds and images.
But Li Chengqi randomly found some programs for Aldai to watch, and she was instantly conquered.
It seems that there are quite few entertainment options over there.
Aldee was wearing newly bought hot pants and an off-shoulder top. She bought this outfit to wear as pajamas, so it was fine.
"Why are you still wearing white stockings? Isn't it hot?"
I just took a shower and put on stockings. Even with air conditioning, I still felt stuffy.
"Huh? Isn't that how you should dress?"
"It's not like I shouldn't... Okay."
One thing to say, beautiful legs with white stockings are really eye-catching.
Li Chengqi sat down on the sofa, resisting the urge to focus on the white silk stockings, and waved to Aldai:
"Stop looking and eat first."
Today's dinner was ordered from the small restaurant next door. Since he was used to eating late, he had just reheated it.
Just as he was about to get the chopsticks, Li Chengqi suddenly heard a clanging sound downstairs, accompanied by the ding-dong sound of the doorbell.
The main entrance of the convenience store has already closed the rolling shutter door. If you knock from this side, there is no doorbell. The sound can only come from the back door.
It was the one where Lei Lei had removed all the door shafts.
"Someone knocked on my door in the middle of the night?"
Li Chengqi glanced at the time, it was already past eight o'clock.
Let Aldai eat first and Li Chengqi go down the stairs.
When I walked to the door of the warehouse, the knocking on the door seemed to have become weak, but the doorbell still rang a little.
"Who?"
Turning on the light, Li Chengqi shouted through the door, but there was no response from outside.
This made Li Chengqi instantly alert.
Although the security in his community is indeed good, and there has not been a single theft report to the police for more than ten or twenty years, when thinking of the recent bank robbery, Li Chengqi felt that it would be safer to be more careful.
He didn't dare to open the door directly, but carefully looked out through the peephole at a distance.
It seemed that only the lights of the street lights in the community could be seen outside, as well as the illuminated residential buildings on the opposite side of the road in the community. There was no one around.
Just when Li Chengqi was wondering if it was a prank, the door rang again, but this time it was more feeble, and the doorbell didn't ring.
There's someone outside the door!
Li Chengqi picked up a crowbar for unpacking from behind the shelf, held the door lock with one hand and clicked it.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw a big white face falling into the room. He was so frightened that he almost hit it with a crowbar.
A big white face suddenly appeared from the darkness in the middle of the night, making everyone tremble.
But Li Chengqi took a closer look: "Are you Qian Sen? What's going on?"
It was Qian Sen who had just met Li Chengqi a few days ago, but his face was pale at this time. He might have been leaning on the door panel just now, so as soon as Li Chengqi opened the door, he fell in.
