I, the one in the heavens, am here to protect my bottom line in all realms.

As for the corpses of the poisonous creatures, she used her special powers to burn them cleanly, leaving absolutely no trace. She returned to the fire in a good mood, took out four tents and set them up for each of the four people.

After roasting the fire for a while, she was the first to go into the tent to rest.

As the sky was getting light, Zhang Chengyuan came out of the tent to wash, followed by Canbaobao, and Lingyu and Lingjiao came out a little later. After breakfast, the four of them set off again.

After working day and night for two or three days, they finally saw the shadow of a city wall. They quickened their pace again, but before they got close, they saw the city gate open and people carrying trees came out to plant them.

There is no doubt that the familiar Chinese larch tree is the base where Mu Yangjin and his team are based.

As I got closer, I noticed more and more gazes coming at them. There were all kinds of emotions, including envy, jealousy, fear, suspicion, etc. But no one took the initiative to look at them. They all looked at them silently.

A man quickly ran down the wall. This man was Mu Yangjin. He glanced at the others, and finally looked at Canbaobao and asked gently, "Why are you here?"

Seeing them holding umbrellas, looking clean and not tired at all, he really couldn't ask them nonsense like whether something happened.

Silkworm Baby became more and more unhappy, but she just frowned on the surface, and her tone was still gentle and warm: "Let's come and take a look at the base."

Lingyu did not give him face, and said in a bad tone: "Why do we have to report to you when we come here?"

Mu Yangjin didn't care about Lingyu's attitude, but noticed Canbao's unhappy frown. Although he didn't know how he had made her unhappy, his first reaction was to reflect on what he had done wrong.

Thinking about it, during the time they met, he did nothing except ignoring other people and just saying hello to the baby...

While thinking, something flashed through his mind, but he didn't catch it because it happened too quickly. He couldn't help but look at the other three people, looking back and forth. It shouldn't be Lingyu. She has a carefree personality. If she was offended, she would have been furious long ago. Just now she was obviously unhappy and made sarcastic remarks, which showed that it was not her.

It is even more impossible for Ling Jiao to do so. He has never taken him seriously and would not care about him at all.

As a result, the thought that just flashed through my mind came to mind. There was another person present, the girl who was called "Master". I neglected her and made the baby unhappy.

Mu Yangjin looked Zhang Chengyuan in the face and immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, I was so happy that I neglected it. I'll take you to the base to rest first."

Seeing someone talking to him, Zhang Chengyuan politely replied, "It's okay. I've made some breakthroughs and cultivated a lot of new varieties. I wanted to come over to discuss cooperation with you and visit the base."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yangjin immediately realized that he could not make the decision on this matter, so he called his team members and told him to find the person in charge of the base, and then warmly invited them to visit the base.

Zhang Chengyuan readily agreed, and the four of them followed Mu Yangjin into the base.

Mu Yangjin asked tentatively: "Do you want to go to my house to rest first? Or should we visit the base first?"

He was aware of the unusualness of these people and did not use his own ideas to do things. He followed their opinions in everything.

Zhang Chengyuan and the others were not tired at all, and they did not want to waste too much time: "Let's visit the base first, we are not tired."

Mu Yangjin readily took them around the base and introduced them to it. Except for a few important places, they could go wherever they wanted.

On the other side, his team members found the person in charge of the base and conveyed the captain's words. The person in charge of the base then became busy, asking people to prepare meals and arrange accommodation. Finally, he convened senior management to agree on a rough framework, which would facilitate discussions on transactions or cooperation later.

After walking around for a while, Zhang Chengyuan had a general understanding of the base. After confirming that the base was people-oriented, there were no too strict rules, and there was no practice of opening the door to the upper echelons, she decided to meet the upper echelons. To understand how the upper echelons behaved, if they were good people in power, she could directly set the tone for cooperation and then slowly discuss the details.

"Let's go and meet the person in charge of the base."

Mu Yangjin didn't say much and led the way.

Because of the previous transactions, the person in charge of the base had some understanding of them. When they met, his attitude was very good and he expressed his gratitude one after another.

Zhang Chengyuan didn't like to be polite. She directly stated the purpose of her visit: "Hello, it's like this. The seeds I traded with you before have made a breakthrough after cultivation. I came here for two purposes. One is to cooperate with you to carry out greening work, and the other is to continue trading with you."

For the head of the base, these two goals were like big meat buns delivered to his doorstep. There was no reason for him not to accept them. He smiled so hard that his mouth was about to split, and he warmly invited him to come into the house to discuss in detail.

After entering the house, everyone sat down and someone brought them tea and candy.

These things are rare nowadays, which shows how much effort they put into them.

The head of the base was about to say a few polite words, but Zhang Chengyuan took over the conversation: "I won't say more. I like to be direct. I have twelve varieties of fruits, eight varieties of vegetables, three varieties of grains, twenty-one varieties of trees, five varieties of flowers and plants, and seven varieties of medicinal herbs.

They are available now, but the quantity is not large. You can decide how to trade.

Of course, all of these have prerequisites. I need your cooperation in greening, and also find me various drought-resistant seeds that can resist wind and sand, and contact other bases. I will not be responsible for future negotiations, and will leave it entirely to you.

You can consider it, and if you can accept it, we can discuss the details of the deal now."

The person in charge could not accept this pie-in-the-sky good thing. They had agreed on the bottom line of the price, but they did not expect that the other party had no intention of making a profit from it and even gave it away for free, just some useless bad seeds.

Unable to calm down his excited heart for a long time, he held Zhang Chengyuan's hand and called her a good person, and wanted everyone to know her selfless dedication.

Zhang Chengyuan calmly pulled his hand out and said, "You think too much. I just want to satisfy my own selfish desires. Don't think too highly of me. If you can accept it, let's talk about the deal."

Although the person in charge wanted to agree, his reasoning made him hold back his thoughts: "What's your name? We are not in a hurry, let's eat first and then talk about things. We can't trouble you to come here in person and talk about things on an empty stomach."

Zhang Chengyuan felt his stomach and was indeed a little hungry: "Zhang Chengyuan, you can call me whatever you want, we are indeed hungry too."

"Come on, this way please, the food is ready."

The person in charge led the way enthusiastically and was in a very good mood.

During the meal, the person in charge wanted to talk about the details of the cooperation while eating, but Zhang Chengyuan and the others didn't want to. They just wanted to eat and forget about talking about things at the dinner table. They didn't like talking about things at the dinner table before, and they still don't like it now, except for chatting about family matters, of course.

Knowing that the base had tried its best, Zhang Chengyuan still felt a little unsatisfied with the meal. However, she was not unhappy because she knew that this was a wasteland and it was already very good to have such a feast. She could not hold others to her own standards.
