When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1295 Farm Owner 48
After thinking for a moment, Tan You beckoned to Hu Hai and whispered a few words to him. Hu Hai quickly summoned Hu Feng and the others.

Tan You walked up to Boss Turtle again, and immediately used a power ball to clear a path for him.

Senior Turtle swallowed the power ball given to him by Tan You, his beady eyes fixed on her. Tan You was equally direct: "The mutated lotus and mutated calamus I planted in the river are being targeted."

"I plan to dig a fishpond on the farm. Could you do me a favor and bring back lotus flowers and calamus, and connect the fishpond to the river?"

Senior Turtle raised his right forelimb, and Tan You understood: "Okay, I'll give you ten Tranquility Apples later."

The turtle lowered its front paw with satisfaction and quickly disappeared into the farm.

At this moment, Hu Feng and the others also arrived. The three members of the Hu family, father and son, all possessed earth-type abilities. With Xiao Yezi assisting them, they quickly dug a fishpond that was 1.5 meters deep and 10 meters long and wide.

The moment the fishpond was dug, a water channel about one meter wide stretched from the edge of the fishpond all the way to the outside of the protective cover, leading directly to the river. As the water flowed in, a large, earthen-yellow turtle carrying a clump of emerald green calamus and a clump of lotus roots came along with the current.

Upon reaching the fishpond, the giant turtle shook its body, and calamus and lotus flowers slid off its back, falling into the fishpond and growing with the wind, quickly covering the entire river surface.

Tan You was relieved. She gave each of the three energy balls—Gui, Changpu, and Hehua—one, and then sent a message to Minister Huang: "Done."

Old Huang's communicator beeped. He looked up at the heated exchange above him, a mocking smile spreading across his face.

Although the legion is quieter than the base, it's not exactly peaceful either; factional strife exists everywhere. Especially during the past six months, with Jin Xi injured and recuperating, his deputy battalion commanders have started to have their own agendas.

Then there's the interference from the base...

Honestly, Tan You acted incredibly fast. Had I only been tipping her off for an hour? And she'd already finished?

He wouldn't tell anyone about Tan You's actions, lest they make a wasted trip!
At the farm, Hu Hai squatted by the fishpond, looking at the lotus leaves with a particularly regretful expression: "I thought I could go to the river to dig lotus roots this year. Do you think those people will take all the calamus and lotus flowers from the bank if they come?"

"It's not that easy," Tan You chuckled. "The calamus and lotus roots have already absorbed the life force of the newly bred population along the riverbank. It won't benefit outsiders."

Hu Hai was relieved: "That's good, these people are really bad!"

Tan You was also open-minded: "The river wasn't originally part of my farm's contracted area. Besides, can the river be contracted out? It wouldn't be good if someone tried to control me, since my farm gets all its water from the river."

"I need to ask Minister Huang."

So, while Minister Huang was ostensibly holding a meeting, he was actually slacking off, mainly discussing with Tan You how to contract out the section of the river near the farm to her.

After discussing it for a while, the two actually came up with a solution: "Although no one has contracted the river yet, it's not impossible. You can submit an application to the base."

Tan You: "Will it work?"

“It should be possible, but since this is the first time, I guess some people at the base will want to talk to you.” Minister Huang also said in advance: “If you go to the base, a lot of people will come looking for you, after all, you… are really famous.”

Tan You's fame wasn't among ordinary people, but among those in power. For example, within the base, countless people wanted to find Tan You, but she remained on the farm, truly keeping to herself. Whenever she went to the base, countless schemes and plots aimed at her would come her way. Minister Huang had also prepared Tan You with these precautions beforehand.

Tan You nodded: "I know, there are some things I have to do myself, I can't rely on others for everything."

She and the legion have a cooperative relationship, and they are equals. But if Tan You relies on the legion to handle all the river contracting, she will naturally be inferior to the legion in the future, which Tan You is naturally unwilling to do.

In that case, this trip to the base is inevitable.

Tan You is a very decisive person. She had just consulted with Minister Huang, and that very afternoon she submitted her application. Yes, it was the same department where the original owner had applied to contract the farm.

Tan You's application was very straightforward. The main point was that she had found two mutated aquatic plants, but unfortunately, the river did not belong to her. If she planted the mutated plants in the river, etc.

She submitted her application and received a reply within two hours. The gist of it was that the contracting was fine, but Tan You herself needed to go to the base to sign the documents.

Tan You chuckled, made an appointment to go to the base tomorrow, and then hung up the call.

Hu Feng overheard this and, while Tan You was deep in thought, he hesitated and said, "Let's go with the arena owner tomorrow. Although we've retired, we're still superpowered warriors, and we can fight to the death if necessary."

"Relax, we are civilized people and we do things in a civilized manner," Tan You said with a smile and shook her head. "Everyone knows exactly what's on our farm, and it's just a contract, it's not that serious."

As a level five wood-type ability user, she also has the assistance of small leaves, grass stems, and thorn vines. Moreover, she is not truly powerless; even if she encounters a very powerful ability user, Tan You has the ability to protect herself.

"I'll go by myself tomorrow."

Hu Feng disagreed, but Tan You was the boss, so he really couldn't object.

Seeing this, Tan You laughed and said, "It's not just me, there are also small leaves and grass stems, and thorn vines."

Upon seeing Senior Turtle lazily sunbathing, Tan You's eyes flashed: "Senior Turtle, would you like to come with me tomorrow?"

Although this mutated turtle might not be particularly strong in combat, its defensive capabilities are absolutely top-notch. With something that can both fight and withstand attacks, Tan You is truly not afraid at all.

The large, earthen-yellow tortoise glanced at Tan You, then shrank to the size of a thumb and landed on her ponytail. With the small grass stem serving as a headband, Tan You looked like she was wearing a uniquely shaped hair tie, complete with a tortoise-shaped pendant.

Hu Feng reluctantly agreed, "We'll take you to the base tomorrow. We'll keep watch downstairs."

Tan You knew this was a concession from Hu Feng and the others. Compared to others, Hu Feng and his group were undoubtedly the least willing to let anything happen to her. If something happened to her, where would they find such a well-paid job?
Tan You nodded: "Okay, let's go together then. Don't worry, I'm really fine."

If necessary, she could also impersonate a psychic. With her mental strength, even the most powerful psychics wouldn't stand a chance against her.

Those who were closely monitoring Tan You's movements were excited upon learning that she was coming to the base. The Third Legion had kept Tan You's whereabouts extremely secret; they had virtually no way to contact her.
