Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 106 Li Xiang's Secret Base

In the fan group, someone asked: "Brother Xiang, why didn't you execute the previous 'Foolish Old Man Plan'? Isn't this a case of starting with a head but ending with a tail? Don't you want the traffic?"

Li Xiang explained: "I had no choice. I was reported by disgusting people. The province called the city, the city called the county, the county called the town, and the town called the village. Our village party secretary talked to me, so I had to stop. If there are good projects suitable for live broadcast in the future, I will share them with you."

Many people couldn't help but sigh and curse those whistleblowers, saying that they really can't bear to see others do well in the slightest.

Someone else shouted in the group: "Was it reported by someone in the group? If so, please get out immediately!"

Everyone expressed their opinions: "This is definitely not me, I am a big fan of Brother Xiang."

"It's not me. I often give gifts, likes and comments to Xiang Ge."

Li Xiang comforted everyone and said, "It may be some colleagues. After all, colleagues are enemies."

"Brother Xiang, is there really a mine?" a fan asked.

Li Xiang replied: "There is no mine. You are overthinking. I hope to find a mine more than anyone else, but the possibility is too small."

Everyone thought about it and agreed that it was normal not to be able to mine, so they stopped talking about it.

Li Xiang actually has quite a few high-end bloodstones in his warehouse, and he is thinking about when to find a channel to sell them.

This is not a spiritual stone, and it cannot be eaten or drunk. The best way to use it is to exchange it for money and use it to store supplies in the future.

Of course, he would also keep some of the best quality, in small quantities, for himself to use in carving seals.

Bloodstone seal, that's a good thing.

He has looked up information and learned about the market in the past few days. A few years ago, at an auction, a bloodstone seal from grassland BLYQ, which was very small in size, only 3.1×3×11.9cm, was sold for 483 million yuan.

He had also seen the photo of the seal, which was indeed very beautiful, with bright colors and some white fat showing through. The ground color and blood color blended seamlessly, like a dancing flame. He had five large pieces of bloodstone of the same quality, or even better, in his system warehouse, weighing a total of 3.6 kilograms. There were also seven or eight pieces of the next best quality, weighing more than ten kilograms.

If all of them were sold, even if the price wasn’t that high, there would definitely be seven or eight million.

After all, they are bidding at an auction, but his quantity is large.

If you buy in large quantities, the price will be slightly lower, since it is raw material and not processed.

"I heard that there is a large bloodstone trading market and appraisal center in the provincial capital, and there are many companies buying it there. It seems that a trip to the provincial capital is imperative."

So, Li Xiang called He Zhixiang, a coffee merchant in Yunnan Province, and asked him to go to Chengdu with him. Last time, he promised to introduce the nobleman to him, so he couldn't break his promise and solved it while he was at it.

Then, Li Xiang called the archer nobleman again. The other party later showed up in the live broadcast room and joined his fan group. Li Xiang also had the other party’s phone number and WeChat.

The other party's surname is Xu Mingxuan. According to He Zhixiang, his grandparents, parents, uncles and aunts are either military and political leaders or top businessmen, and they are all very successful in the entire southwest region.

"Surname Xu?" Li Xiang fell into deep thought, and his memory returned to his past life.

At that time, there were a total of eighteen large underground bases in the country, and the leader in the southwest seemed to be named Xu.

"Could it be their house? It seems that it is even more necessary to go and check it out."

In his previous life, Li Xiang had been staying in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai for work reasons, so he was also there after the apocalypse, so he entered the underground base there and did not have much contact with the southwest, because at that time, transportation and communication were quite inconvenient.

The monsters came from outer space, overwhelming the sky, destroying all the satellites in the sky, including the space station. Many satellite-guided missiles could not be used, and the artificial intelligence system was also limited.

For example, the C4ISR of the United States, the "War Skull", "Thousand-Handed Guanyin", and "9G Network" of the Eastern Power are all restricted. These high-end technologies all require the help of satellites.

The lunar base had lost contact long before this. It was speculated that they were in great danger. Even if they survived, they would not be able to hold out for long without supplies from Earth.

In the backyard, Li Xiang sat cross-legged on a large bloodstone in the sun, while carving a small piece of top-quality bloodstone in his hand. This bloodstone had a fine and moist texture, condensed and spiritual, and bright red blood color. The pattern formed was magnificent and it was the most beautiful piece of bloodstone he had.

Of course he would keep it for himself.

This piece of bloodstone is very hard, with a Mohs hardness of 7-8. Bloodstone is mainly divided into four types: frozen ground, soft ground, hard ground and hard ground. This one is definitely "hard ground".

However, no matter how hard the ground was, it was like fruit in front of the White Fang dagger, and Li Xiang's hands were strong, so carving was particularly easy for him.

"Whoo~"

As he carved, he blew away the tiny stone chips, and finally, a beautiful personal seal took shape.

This kind of bloodstone can be used to make seals, but because the cinnabar in it is poisonous, it is not suitable for making jewelry, so he plans to sell the rest if he can.

That hilltop is actually the collective property of Lijia Village. Li Jinyu has already talked to Li Xiang, and they will hold the election during the New Year, so there is basically no suspense.

Since Li Xiang is going to be the village chief soon, he also has the authority to deal with development.

Of course, the necessary procedures still need to be completed in the name of the village committee.

But, isn't this the case? So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Xiang sealed up the entrances at both ends of the cave, used some of the stones he had dug out before, built a wall about one meter thick, and then spread some weeds on top.

There was a large stone among them, which was his door.

This "door" is about 1.5 meters high, 70 to 80 centimeters wide, and weighs 700 to 800 kilograms. Most people cannot push it at all, but Li Xiang can move it easily, so he has no problem going in, but it is very difficult for others to get in.

Some small holes are also left, very hidden ones, as ventilation holes.

This place is his secret base for now. Whenever he has time, he will expand it. When the super flood comes in a few years, it will be able to accommodate at least the entire village.

Because floods are caused by continuous heavy rainfall, setting up a tent on the mountain makes everything wet and it is easy to be struck by lightning. How can it be safer and more comfortable than living in a dry cave?

As for transporting stones during expansion, it is even more convenient. Now that the system warehouse has been expanded to 512 cubic meters, it is easy to transport all the stones for one day at one time and scatter them in the mountains and fields.

Some of the better stones can also be kept for use as building materials in the future.

He also had night vision, so the darkness in the cave didn't pose any obstacle at all.

Li Xiang came to the cave again and used the White Fang dagger and iron pickaxe to cut off a large piece of stone, about 2.5 meters long, 1.8 meters wide and 80 centimeters high. He carved it into a flat stone bed and placed it in a bedroom in the "three bedrooms and one living room".

He even used a sharp white tooth dagger to carve some patterns on the bed, such as auspicious clouds, a five-clawed golden dragon, and a lucky four-leaf clover.

In order to keep the air flowing smoothly, he opened two small paths on the wall of the three-bedroom, one-living room apartment, leading to the north and south directions respectively, directly to the ground.

These two paths are slightly downward, especially the exit, which has a steep slope, so there is no need to worry about rainwater flowing in.

The exit is also covered with stones, shrubs, weeds, etc.

Considering that some small animals, such as snakes, insects, rats and ants, might crawl in, he got some quicklime, mixed it with water and matured it, then brushed several thick layers on the passage.

If you have more cats at home in the future, you can catch a few and raise them here.

Li Xiang took a look at this "simple decoration", no, "unfinished" secret base and felt quite satisfied. It was warm in winter and cool in summer. If he wanted to retreat and break through in the future, he could hide here.
