Chapter 1354: Public Invitation (3)
Niu Baidao laughed and said, "That geezer hasn't been able to get sufficient materials himself so he has been getting quite envious of others. Just ignore him. I think you'll need to wait a day or two. Even traveling at full speed from Great Ming to here will take some time."
Su Yu nodded and said, "Tell Faculty Head Hu to take his spatial cutting machine with him. I'll be needing it."
"You need that thing?" Niu Baidao was surprised. He nodded, "Sure. Old Hu has been very free lately. Are you getting him to help with space splitting?"
"Yes. I plan to do something with it." Su Yu said, "Principal, is the prefecture still not supporting Faculty Head Hu's teleportation research? That honestly sounds quite impressive research. Didn't he teleport you to the battlefield not long ago? It's obviously quite useful."
"You have no idea!"
Niu Baidao shook his head, "If even someone like me was left disoriented by his teleportation, a regular person would be ripped apart by the process. There are still a lot of major issues to solve. The prefecture had allocated some funds to him recently, but he still needs more. It's a great idea, but it's also too expensive."
"How is Prefect Zhu doing recently?"
"Him?" Niu Baidao tried very hard to hold his laughter in before answering, "Not bad. He has probably been feeling quite sullen recently. His reputation as the killer of four Invincibles still lingers. All his grandchildren are looking at him like he's a monster."
Su Yu laughed in amusement.
Niu Baidao said, "I need to tell you something. Your cultivation methods have earned a lot of merit points. The prefect said that since you don't need merit points anymore, he will swap the merit points for other things you need. What do you want? Don't hold back. He's rich. His eldest brother had served as the Yellow Department head for so many years. That's a department in charge of information. It's a very profitable position through corruption. Not even the Profound Department is comparable."
Su Yu said, "Is that really the case? The Profound Department is in charge of their businesses. How much richer can the Yellow Department be?"
