The Artifact Forger from the Beginning of Collapse

Chen Li did not forget the description of the Joyful Dice: When the number is greater than 10, you will successfully resolve the current crisis, but the process may become very absurd or joyful.

Experiments have shown that this probability actually means there is a very high probability.

In order to prevent Aozaki from teaching Haruhi Suzumiya divination, Aozaki inevitably had to stand there as punishment for a whole day.

Fu Xuan wouldn't have let Qing Que stand next to the Qiong Guan Formation for no reason, so Fu Xuan probably used the Qiong Guan Formation to perform divination once and then went to do other things, returning to perform divination after he finished.

During this process, Fu Xuan should be able to obtain some divination results, some that seem somewhat plausible but are ultimately unreliable, allowing Fu Xuan to continue using the Qiong Guan Array for divination...

“Every bite and every sip is preordained. Qingque, obtaining these 100 star stones is your destiny, and standing as punishment by the Qiongguan Formation for a day is also your destiny,” Chen Li said to Qingque.

"Why?"

Because you want to teach Haruhi Suzumiya fortune telling!

However, Chen Li did not intend to say it outright, because the more people who knew that Haruhi Suzumiya was the turtle in the wishing well, the more trouble it would be to keep it a secret.

Perhaps Chen Li leaving a challenge letter for Fu Xuan was also part of the Pleasure Dice plan.

Yeah, it's all the fault of the Happy Dice!

I wonder if Fu Xuan will believe this explanation when I try to explain it to him later.

......

"Too cruel! Too brutal!" Little Black Tower appeared beside Chen Li, his eyes filled with bewilderment.

"What's too cruel? Too brutal?" Chen Li asked, puzzled.

"Najeta is too cruel."

"Najeta?"

“Chen Li, you left after the robin finished singing, so you may not know about the several extremely brutal decrees issued by Najenda after announcing the empire’s rebirth.”

"What's going on?" Chen Li asked, puzzled.

What laws could make the Little Black Tower feel so cruel?

Najenda doesn't seem like that kind of person.

"Najenda got some orders from aliens through Screwgoom, you know?"

"I do know that..."

Help people to the end and send Buddha to the West.

Perhaps because he had received a gift from the minister, ScrewGumu, who hadn't done anything all along, felt a little embarrassed, so he helped introduce some of the screw-tightening business that was still possible in feudal society to the newly established empire.

This proves that Najenda made the right decision in sending gold; Slugum's channel is far more valuable than any gold.

There's no need to worry about the installation of the production line. In the current universe, if a production line cannot be assembled very easily, it simply cannot capture the universe's market.

There's no need to worry about energy; solar energy is a very clean energy source.

There's no need to worry about environmental pollution either, as the supply chains that Screws can access aren't so low-level that they require sacrificing the environment as part of the cost.

There's still no need to worry about talent training. The people of the Empire don't need to know what these things are for; they just need to know which screw to turn in which direction.

In general, these are high-quality production lines that can only be obtained through connections under normal circumstances.

High pay, low workload, and easy job.

And the products produced on the production line are easy to sell.

As long as these products do not have quality problems, or even if they do, it is only the output of an empire, there will definitely be many people willing to share the burden for ScrewGumm.

These products will definitely sell well if ScrewGumm is willing to do so.

However, Najenda rejected the proposal and planned to pursue a strategy of low profit margins and high sales volume.

It's not that Najenda doesn't want more benefits, but she owes Sloth-Gum too many favors, and if she can't repay them in the future, it will easily cause trouble.

“Najeta’s idea is not wrong; owing favors is the most troublesome thing. But because she wants to take the path of low profit and high volume, she has reduced the treatment of factory workers too much.”

"How serious is it?"

"According to the decree issued by Najeta, those workers have to work a full eight hours a day, are only provided with three meals and snacks, milk is only available in the morning, there is only one hour of lunch break, wages can only be raised once every four months, overtime can only be paid at triple the rate, they must exercise for one hour after get off work, and there is only one day of psychological counseling per week."

"Don't you think this is too cruel?" Little Black Tower turned to look at Chen Li.

"...Don't make a sound, I'm thinking."

Chen Lizhen was seriously considering it.

Chen Li didn't know whether the little black tower was a mismatched string or not a mismatched string.

Because when Chen Li was wandering around the Black Tower Space Station, he never seemed to hear any researchers or staff complaining about their salaries and benefits.

"What's there to think about?" Little Black Tower muttered.

"Then let me ask you... if this is considered poor treatment, then you Black Tower dolls need to be on standby every day, which is equivalent to working overtime 24 hours a day, right? And the other side can eat three meals a day, snacks, and milk, but you Black Tower dolls can't eat any of that because you don't have a feeding module. The Great Black Tower doesn't even pay you a salary... which do you think is more cruel?" Chen Li retorted.

"..." Little Black Tower fell into thought.

"..." Chen Li saw the little black tower fall into thought, and thus fell into thought as well.

"Understood!" Little Black Tower perked up!

"Understand what?"

"The treatment we receive from the Black Tower is terrible! I'm going to protest to the Black Tower right now! We want snacks! We want our wages! We want lunch breaks! For the sake of the Black Tower!"

"Bang!" Little Black Tower was halfway through his protest when he was hit on the head with a stick.

"Chen Li, what are you doing!" The big black tower stood with his hands on his hips, looking at Chen Li coldly.

The Black Tower felt that as long as it wasn't nearby, Chen Li was corrupting its Black Tower puppet.

This time, I just caught myself.

If it's Chen Li, then as long as we see him corrupting Little Black Tower, it means he's been corrupting Little Black Tower all along!

Just like if parents see their children playing games, they will also feel that the children have been playing games all along, rather than playing games only after finishing their homework.

"I was just teaching Little Black Tower what freedom is."

"That's right, he was just teaching me what the spirit of freedom is! So we want snacks! We want wages, we want lunch breaks! For the sake of [Black Tower]!" Little Black Tower declared emphatically.

"..." Daheita sighed, rubbing his forehead.

No, sister.

Of all my Black Tower dolls, besides you, who can eat? Who can consume? Who can sleep?

Although this machine spirit can grant the doll freedom, isn't this too much freedom?

"Chen Li. It seems the Great Black Tower doesn't intend to agree to my protest. What should I do?" The Little Black Tower turned to look at Chen Li.

"You won't even call me Godfather."

"godfather!"

"If the Great Black Tower disagrees, then of course..."

"Ahem." The Great Black Tower coughed twice.

"Of course we won't protest. What else can we do?" Chen Li shrugged.

"What? Godfather, how could you defect to the enemy so quickly?"

"Little Black Tower, do you know what the meaning of gardenia flowers is?"

"what?"

"Tolerance".

"Isn't that a bit much? The meaning of gardenias isn't joy, strength, eternal love and promise, lifelong devotion and perseverance, or something like that?" Big Black Tower interjected.

"What do you know, you alien?"

"...This is my universe, you're the alien." The Great Black Tower rolled its eyes at Chen Li.

"Never mind her. Let's just be patient for now. When you can suppress the Great Black Tower with one hand, we'll take back the power," Chen Li said, stroking the Little Black Tower's head.

"Emmm...okay. Let's compromise then. I want snacks, I want my salary, I want a lunch break!" Little Black Tower said to Big Black Tower.

"Okay, okay." The Great Black Tower nodded perfunctorily.

It doesn't matter if it's the Black Tower or the Black Tower Space Station, they're both [Black Tower] anyway.

“Alright, now that you’re back, shall we call Ruan Mei and Luo Sigumu to have a chat with the God of Wisdom?” Chen Li said to the Great Black Tower.

“Okay, I’ll let them know. Screws should be discussing the production line with Najenda, and Nguyen May seems to be researching that Super Special Dangerous Species with Mebius. The two of them seem to get along quite well.” The Great Black Tower nodded.

“Nguyen Mai’s mother’s surname is Mai, and Mebius’s surname is also Mai, so it’s normal that they get along well.”

"...Are you sure Mebius's last name is Mebius?" The Great Black Tower tilted its head.

"That's not important. But speaking of Mebius, I really should get him to do something." Chen Li took a few Senzu Beans from the large jar that Haruhi Suzumiya had given him, then sent them to Mebius via red envelope with a message.

[Using a scalpel, we attempted to cultivate Senzu Beans into seeds of life, reducing the difficulty of cultivation.]

The projections of Mebius, Velvet, and Sakura expired yesterday and have returned to their original forms, leaving only Alicia's projection still hanging in the sky above the fairy boat.

Mebius and Vervier inherited the experience of projection smoothly. For example, Mebius was still able to observe the synthesis probability of life seeds and the instantaneous generation of life seeds.

Moreover, they didn't cause any major trouble on the Immortal Ship, which relieved Chen Li.
