Why it never ends

Chapter 1081 Execution
Hesta laughed: "The Governor is very thoughtful. I myself would never spend a penny on such a thing..."
"Don't be so absolute," the secretary whispered, "It's much more economical to spend a little money than to personally spend time and energy to resolve disputes in the park."
Hesta did not comment.
Soon, the servants of the grandfathers brought a few middle-aged men. Although Hesta couldn't call out their names, she certainly remembered these faces - they were all the ones who came to the main house to cause trouble yesterday afternoon.
Compared to the passionate state of yesterday, they all behaved quite obediently today. This obedience was not absolute submission, but even though they had great resentment and reluctance in their hearts, and their faces showed disapproval and annoyance from time to time, when it was their turn to speak, everyone bowed their backs at the same time, and respectfully stretched out their hands to draw a semicircle on their left cheeks.
Victoria heard the name "Salima" again. She vaguely remembered that Santa also called Hesta and Leilin the same, so she whispered to Hesta about the meaning of this name.
"It seems to be the intention of the leader or lord." Hesta said softly, "I'm not sure."
The two men watched the negotiation between the grandfathers and the residents of the farm shed. About half an hour later, the two sides reached an agreement on the price of fifteen lambs and a calf - and the grandfathers would take the calf and the sheep away directly.
Everyone began to sign the contract, and at the final signing stage, everyone quarreled over whether to call it "two women" or "many women." Fifteen lambs and a calf could only make up for the trauma caused by "two women." If it was to become "many women," the farm would need to provide further compensation.
Victoria yawned, and at this tense moment, she relaxed inappropriately. Whenever the grandfathers spoke to them, she looked at Hesta or the governor's secretary and pretended to listen carefully.
Victoria folded her arms, her eyes fixed on Hesta's profile, and she suddenly remembered the conversation they had had about Deep Anchor last night.
This time when he went to the south, Hesta was determined to bring a batch of "Kasyapa" from there - just like Deep Anchor had done before. Whether to put them on the farm or in the workstation was still under discussion, and the most urgent task was to figure out what the so-called "thing that makes Mercury Needle Mercury Needle" was.
In Bo Heng's description, the state of the "Kasyapa"s is natural. Obviously, they believe that there is some kind of operation between "Kasyapa" and "Mercury Needle" - and it is the AHgAs who have mastered this key skill that greatly enhances the combat capability of the Mercury Needles.
However, Hesta and Victoria talked until midnight, racking their brains to recall their experiences as reservists, but they could not find any clues. Apparently, from their experience, becoming a "mercury needle" was natural - each reservist first awakened when they first encountered chelation disease, and then awakened again in the training room through the offensive and defensive battles with chelates, and then began to record their personal bullet time and Acheron time.
Before encountering chelates, these Mercury Needle Leaf had been living ordinary lives. They had never heard any of their colleagues mention the experience of having extraordinary physical strength in their childhood - everyone assumed that bullet time was the product of the second awakening.
The key now is how to convince those monks that they really have something in their hands. Considering that Shenmao has deceived a group of young Kasyapas in the mountains and forests in the south, if Hesta and the others can't produce the evidence with just empty words, I'm afraid these monks will not let go.
Hesta joined the negotiation. Victoria's thoughts were drawn to the voice, so she listened for a while. Hesta seemed to be proposing that all the tenants and workers on the farm vote - just as the grandfathers had mentioned before, everyone, all women, men, old people, children... should vote. Since everyone lived in the same place, everyone should have the right to express their likes and dislikes about the name of the plantation.
This statement seemed to arouse some opposition, and Victoria listened for a while and then began to distract herself again.
——By the way, if Boheng and the others have no idea what makes the mercury needles what they are, doesn’t that mean they can make up whatever they want?
The key point is how much do the devout young people know about AHgAs, and to what extent can they identify their lies. Amid the debate, Victoria suddenly had an idea that she might as well ask for advice from Office 2. Just as she was about to turn around and share this idea with Hesta, she saw Hesta standing up and arguing with the people opposite.
Victoria could only put it aside for the time being and wait for Hesta to finish.
Things took longer than expected. In the end, the men and grandfather of the farm took the compensation prepared by the governor's secretary and accepted the names of the "two women". At the same time, they also agreed to set up voting areas on the plantation to let everyone vote on the names of the "many women" to see whether there were more votes in favor or against.
When they parted, the women and men at the negotiation table did not say hello. Hesta and Victoria got up and went to the main house. Before the governor's secretary caught up with them, Victoria told Hesta her idea. Hesta looked ahead and said, "I wrote an email to Office No. 2 last night. They suggested that I try the peptide agent."
"...peptide."
"Well, since most of the mercury needles are injected with peptides during the second awakening period, this one at least looks like that." Hesta said, "They will deliver a batch of reserve training materials to the Emanria workstation before the end of this week. It's up to us how to use them."
"What time did you go to bed last night?"
"Four o'clock."
"Don't you need to sleep at night?"
"I can't sleep," Hesta said, "The construction site is a little short of manpower this afternoon. Can you come and help?"
"Where are those workers you found?"
"Most people have work to do in the afternoon," Hesta said. "It's too expensive to go out and find legal workers. Lai Lin is helping me find illegal workers. It will probably take another two days before I get any news."
"black--"
"I've been there to watch, and to be honest, some of the work doesn't require any technical skills. We have to put up the frames within two weeks. I just customized a batch of windows from the glass factory a few days ago, and their production cycle is just two weeks - this way we don't waste any time."
"…Are you in a hurry?"
"It's very urgent," Hesta whispered. "I don't know how much time I have left."
