It was mentioned before.
The antenna array brought by the rabbits this time covers an area of more than ten thousand square meters and is over thirty meters high.
Therefore, the assembly and debugging are not that easy and require a lot of manpower and time.
According to the preliminary agreement between Ma Ning and Yang Bolin earlier.
The entire assembly process is estimated to take two to three Damo days, which is roughly half a month in local time.
During this period, the Yang Family will provide cultivators to complete high-altitude work tasks, just like the Wei Family's tool men before.
No choice.
Who can blame the large equipment for not being transported to Ziqiong City?
Of course.
The three Damo days' limit is the maximum period, or the established construction period.
If it were the Kunlun workers doing this, nothing more need be said.
They would certainly deliver just on time and might even delay further.
But the rabbits are different from Kunlun workers; they have no emotional entanglements and are even more diligent and capable.
With the rabbits' construction abilities, which specialize in creating miracles, this time is likely to be significantly reduced.
After the team led by Huang Jiaqi started work.
Patriarch Yang Wanli stayed at the site for about half an hour, seeing that everything was normal, he then took his leave.
Yang Bolin stayed at the temporary site as both a supervisor and middleman, responsible for coordinating between both sides.
Therefore, Ma Ning did not have much trouble casually taking him to the small grove nearby.
Fortunately, the rabbits this time were all decent people, without any fujoshis.
Otherwise, with the bizarre imagination that even Inspector Megure and Professor Agasa could make it into a doujin, there's no telling what kind of mind-blowing scenes they might conjure.
Upon arriving at the edge of the grove.
Ma Ning, like a petty electronic watch vendor from the 1980s, sneakily glanced around.
After confirming no one was paying attention, he turned to Yang Bolin and said:
"Shopkeeper Yang, I apologize for inviting you here privately, primarily because I have an item I hope you can appraise.
Oh, by the way, let me clarify.
It's not a new product for mass production, but something we came across unexpectedly a while back."
Upon hearing this, Yang Bolin's heart experienced a slight sense of disappointment.
If Ma Ning hadn't explained, he would have thought the rabbits had something good for him to handle again.
No help for it.
As they say, it's addictive; Yang Bolin has experienced the joy of being a middleman.
The previous two successful trades brought considerable gains of thousands of spirit stones to Purple Treasure Pavilion.
From Yang Bolin's perspective.
This portion of the profit exceeds the rabbits' pure profit, even after deducting costs, by a significant margin.
The other item, the hemorrhoid cream, although not very profitable due to its low price,
Its special effects, however, strengthened Purple Treasure Pavilion's network considerably.
From a long-term perspective.
Its importance may not be any less than the joy stick.
Therefore, Yang Bolin still hoped Ma Ning would bring out some more good stuff.
After all, whether it's the hemorrhoid cream, joy stick, or communication array, they all indicate that the rabbits have a remarkable background.
Yang Bolin was sure.
The rabbits must have other special products.
Perhaps it's food, perhaps it's clothing, but there must be more!
So with this premise.
Though a bit disappointed in his heart, Yang Bolin's expression became even more enthusiastic:
"Oh?
I wonder what this old man can do to help you, Shopkeeper Ma, don't hesitate to ask.
This old man has some knowledge in appraisals and might be able to offer a bit of help."
Yang Bolin's words were no boast.
Without some skill in appraising treasures, he wouldn't be able to hold the position of Chief Shopkeeper at Purple Treasure Pavilion.
So Ma Ning did not keep him guessing and immediately took out a small box from his pocket, handing it to Yang Bolin:
"Shopkeeper Yang, please take a look at this."
Yang Bolin received the box with both hands, his expression very solemn.
Then he cautiously probed with his divine sense and, after confirming there were no traps, gently opened it.
Upon clearly seeing the item inside, his pupils visibly shrank:
"Hiss... such a large Golden Core?"
Before Ma Ning could speak, Yang Bolin shook his head:
"Unfortunately, the spiritual energy inside has long dissipated, leaving only an empty shell, otherwise, it would be quite valuable."
Ma Ning was about to ask about the Golden Core's realm, but the latter part made him pause.
The words about to come out were abruptly changed to another sentence:
"Shopkeeper Yang, from what you mean...
Is a complete Golden Core worth spirit stones?"
"What you're saying is just too new."
Yang Bolin chuckled, glanced at him, then recalled that Shopkeeper Ma came from the Celestial Moon Mountain Range, knowing his cultivation style had some differences from the mainstream.
So he proactively explained:
"Shopkeeper Ma, you might not know.
Normally, a complete cultivator's Golden Core can extract the cultivator's secret techniques or insights from when they were alive.
And the cultivation techniques of those who can reach the Core Formation Realm...
Honestly, they won't be lacking.
By spending a low amount of cost to copy it, one can reap thousands or even tens of thousands of spirit stones.
Additionally, the Golden Core contains a large amount of refined spiritual energy.
If both parties' main cultivation technique attributes match, the latter can directly absorb that part of the spiritual energy to increase their cultivation.
Furthermore, Golden Cores are extremely solid, and in the Damo Realm, there's a secret technique to refine Golden Cores into powerful explosion beads.
Once these beads explode, ordinary Core Formation Realm cultivators almost have no defense against their damage, and if not dead, they would be severely injured.
The above three steps are basically progressive.
In other words, a Golden Core can yield spirit stones, cultivation, and defensive measures.
So, how could the value of a Golden Core be low?
For instance, in some families where Core Formation Realm elders have passed away, often after seven days, the doorstep would be worn out by buyers eager to acquire them."
Ma Ning then nodded in understanding.
A long, long time ago.
The rabbits had once tried to understand the uses of Golden Cores.
But due to limited information channels, in the end, the rabbits did not grasp much practical information.
However, the lab side extrapolated through the components of monster crystals, proposing the hypothesis that a cultivator's Golden Core might contain a large amount of spiritual energy.
And from this, they inferred that Golden Cores probably have the function of increasing cultivation.
Now it seems the lab's guesses are basically in line with reality.
As for the other two, they are purely secrets of the cultivation field, no matter how one imagines, they certainly can't be explained properly.
Yang Bolin's introduction was an unexpected gain, enriching the rabbits' database once more.
After all, such information belongs to those situations where "what's hard to know for some may be easy for others," asking around is quite troublesome and requires a certain level of access.
Seeing as the topic of the Golden Core had been broached, Yang Bolin wouldn't be able to get away anytime soon.
Therefore, Ma Ning was in no rush to confirm Mo Peidong's realm, just listened with some curiosity and asked:
"Shopkeeper Yang, since the Golden Core is so valuable...
Does the Damo Realm have people specifically hunting Core Formation Realm cultivators to obtain Golden Cores?"
...
