Sanyueqi flipped through the new menu with great interest, and said eagerly, "Ah Lin, Uncle Yang, what do you say we buy some for Ji Zi? I think tea should be a good thing. After all, it's not as bad as coffee... Haha, since we're here, we have to bring some gifts back. And this beautiful sister said it's cheaper than other competitors, so we should save as much as possible."
Chen Lin really wanted to complain about where you heard the famous quote from Xianzhou. Will you say the same quotes as "nothing is easy", "you are still a child", "you are old" next time?
But when it comes to the word coffee, everyone present, including Chen Lin, was stunned. An indescribable fear suddenly surged in their hearts, as if they were back to the scene when the enthusiastic Ji Zi invited them to drink coffee.
Especially having to pretend to be a good drinker, which is a unique torture for anyone, comparable to being a tiger bench.
Because no one can tell whether or not you will be rewarded with a few more cups after you give a compliment...
What kind of expression would Kafka have if I gave her Himeko's coffee?
Chen Lin was a little surprised.
In any case, Chen Lin was the person who experienced the least pain. Ever since he first tasted the coffee that Ji Zi was proud of, when he returned to the train, he already had the large storage space of the star core. Every time he would take advantage of the moment the coffee entered his mouth to send it into the star core. The super-thin transparent film of spiritual energy would never let the liquid inside touch the mouth!
Fortunately, after being assimilated by the psychic energy, the Star Core had lost its self-awareness and became a tool for him to produce psychic energy day and night. Otherwise, the Star Core would probably scold him to death from morning till night...
"How about this, since this tea is pretty good, let's taste it later. If you think any of them is better, how about buying some back and letting Miss Jizi try it?"
Chen Lin and Walter looked at each other.
There wasn't much other meaning in his eyes, but the two of them were able to reach the best choice. After all, apart from Ji Zi herself, the person who drank the most coffee on the train was Walter.
It’s not that he doesn’t like drinking, but one has to try to keep a happy mood every day as part of life and travel.
Chen Lin gave an excuse: "Uncle Yang, what do you think of this idea? Just drink tea and buy tea to kill time."
Walter was suddenly moved, his expression became more stable, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He thought this suggestion was not bad, so he nodded.
"it is good."
Chen Lin talked a few words with the fox waiter and successfully reserved the tea table. Based on his many years of experience in foot soaking, he emphasized that the tea should be pure tea and not contain any meat.
The other party wrote down everything he had told her, and then he received a compliment from the graceful fox lady, "It turns out you're a regular customer too," and "Next time you can come alone to try our specialty tea." He didn't know if Qingque, who was closest to him, heard what he said, and the look he gave him seemed to be meaningful.
The signs of social death were becoming stronger and stronger. Chen Lin didn't want to continue to dwell on this issue, so he quickly ended the topic.
In the very end, Chen Lin was secretly given the contact number of a teahouse, and he finally escaped from the misery of having his reputation almost ruined.
Sanyueqi and Xing were excited about the new things they were going to experience, while Walter walked forward with a blank expression but his eyes occasionally distracted.
Chen Lin was glad that his reputation had not been damaged, and quietly found an opportunity to throw the business card in his hand into the corner of the street.
Little did he know that Qingque behind him was looking at him with a look of shock, confusion, and then understanding.
The three changes happened in a trance, and no one, each with their own thoughts, noticed the change in Qingque's expression.
With a sigh in his heart, Qingque pursed his lips and lowered his eyes, thinking: "Old Chen is just too serious. I heard that many people don't like men who are too serious. Sometimes it's really unfair for Old Chen to only be able to enter this kind of store..."
……
In the evening, there was still a trace of fiery clouds hanging in the sky. Although the factory was in a state of shutdown, the quality of the controlled jadeite produced was really good, and the daily weather simulation was still carried out as usual.
A star ship with a complex array left Taibusi. As the area was temporarily clear, the star ship did not need to worry about route planning. The small propeller burst out with unprecedented potential, and it turned into a black dot in a "whoosh" and disappeared over the sea of clouds.
Inside the Star Chariot, a certain young fortune teller was folding her hands. In front of her was a tall shadow with a smile on his face walking back and forth. However, she herself was frowning.
"General, are you okay?"
"Why do you say that, Mr. Fu? As General Luofu, I have to consider many other things besides the current star core problem. How can this be a disease?"
Jing Yuan looked at Fu Xuan who suddenly sat upright and added: "Mr. Fu, you can't have forgotten the outcome of the battle on the Immortal Boat [Yuque], right? The reinforcements failed to arrive in time, if not..."
"I know! I know that matter better than anyone else!" Fu Xuan took two deep breaths and spoke in a slow tone, "My voice was a little loud just now, please forgive me, General."
“Hahahahaha.” Jing Yuan laughed nonchalantly, “From my perspective, this is the first time that Fu Qingke has been able to suppress his emotions so quickly. He has a great chance of becoming a general.”
Fu Xuan suddenly didn't want to pay attention to the man in front of him, and couldn't help frowning: "General, the Construction Department is in danger now. If we want to stop sailing, not to mention that the progress agreed with other immortal boats will be changed, just stopping the engine of the immortal boat is not a simple matter. There are foreign objects growing in the Construction Department. Although I am here in person, I have briefly calculated a hexagram. The hexagram shows that 'disaster is coming but do not move' can turn danger into safety. You also agreed to this approach at the beginning, why did you suddenly change your decision?"
Facing such a stubborn and inquiring look, Jing Yuan remained calm and said, "Before today, I would not have changed my mind. I talked to the train crew and briefly discussed the situation with my brother. Luofu is not facing a small star core disaster this time, but a disaster brought about by other bigger forces."
"how do I say this?"
"My dear brother, you reminded me that the Immortal Boat is not some uncivilized barbarian. How could Luofu, who has the Emperor Bow Siming's full support, have a star core that escapes all of our eyes and appears here? I know Dan Shu. Even if he uses forbidden techniques, it is impossible for him to hide the star core from the eyes of Taibu Si and me and send it to the Immortal Boat silently."
Jing Yuan shook his head, his face stern and his tone serious: "What kind of enemy would be able to do this? Have you ever thought about it, Fu Qing?"
At this point, Fu Xuan broke out in a cold sweat: "General, do you mean that someone at the level of an envoy is involved?!"
"Yes, and my dear brother, he suspects more than one person. Even if we look at the bright side, those who come are not envoys, but their strength is not much different from his."
"But we can't do that... If it gets out, from my perspective, if we don't treat the guests well, they won't come back. Can Luofu really withstand the economic blow brought about by such an action? What's more..."
Jing Yuan interrupted with a smile: "Besides, if things are not done well, I will lose my position, right?"
Fu Xuan looked at Jing Yuan strangely and said, "Then why do you agree to such a request? I know that my beloved brother is friendly to Xianzhou, but I don't think it means that the empire behind my beloved brother is absolutely friendly!"
As they were talking, the Star Ship had already left the clear area. As more and more Star Ships of various types appeared around it, its speed naturally slowed down a lot.
Fortunately, Fu Xuan's car has the most extreme sound insulation, no matter what the people inside say, no one outside can hear it.
"We're almost there." Jing Yuan suddenly said something inexplicably.
Fu Xuan in the Star Chariot was slightly stunned, unable to understand the meaning of the words.
Jing Yuan turned around with his hands behind his back, and pointed his transparent finger with a blue glow towards the northwest, which was one of the important cargo ferries managed by the Tianbosi. It was also one of the few ports that had not been affected by the star core and was still in operation.
However, the cargo boxes piled up in the ports during this period have basically been emptied. If the star core and other problems are not solved quickly and the Jade Realm Gate is opened earlier, these ports will become stagnant because of the inability to transport goods in and out.
"Do you still recognize those Xingcha Fuqing?"
"The Star Chariot of the Divine Strategy Palace?"
Fu Xuan noticed the sign right in front of the Star Raft and didn't understand why the Star Raft, which was used exclusively for the Shen Ce Mansion, appeared to be fully loaded, with so many of them transporting goods between the port and the Shen Ce Mansion.
It's a bit unbelievable.
"Those are the most scarce food in Xianzhou now. There are 400 million tons, which completely fills the only two remaining ports." Jing Yuanchao nodded to Fu Xuan, whose expression changed slightly, and said, "From this, I can judge that the Empire's attitude towards Xianzhou is definitely very friendly. And Fu Qing, aren't you curious about where the food comes from when Luofu blocked all the entrances and exits?"
"Could it be...Aidi?"
Jing Yuan nodded: "That's right. This morning I sent a message to my brother about the situation of the Immortal Boat. He asked me to give him the coordinates of a few open spaces, so I sent him the coordinates, and this is the result."
Fu Xuan was shocked: "No one came in or out?!"
"No."
"No cargo ships coming in?!"
"No."
"Then how did you get in?"
Fu Xuan’s CPU is about to burn out, but he can’t figure out the reason.
When Jing Yuan saw Fu Xuan's reaction, he nodded secretly in his heart.
"The real food reserves of the Immortal Boat were consumed during the war. Now, in order to ensure that everyone's quality of life does not decline, the consumption of various foods is even greater. However, the most important thing is that almost all the food reserves were sent to the front line last month. The empire's free aid is indeed a righteous act.
"Of course, apart from that, I suspect that your identity may not be what it seems. Perhaps you have a very important position in the empire."
Fu Xuan frowned and snorted, "That's true, but I won't alienate my beloved brother because of anything."
Jingyuan smiled and nodded.
"Once the big event is over, I will agree to Yalilo-VI of my empire sending people to set up embassies with Luofu. Does Mr. Fu have any candidates for embassy commissioners? Or do you just want to serve as an ambassador for a few years to gain some experience?"
At the same time, he was relieved. He had finally fooled her into thinking that the behavior that Fu Xuan called a disease was a mistake. Her focus was no longer on that matter...
Chapter 176 Clara's 'Small Megastructure'
To be honest, Fu Xuan did not do much to influence the situation during her tenure as Luofu Taibu. Most of the time she was in charge of auxiliary matters. Even though Jing Yuan promised her that he would nominate her as Luofu General in the future, she still had to have some outstanding achievements to convince the public.
In fact, many people don’t really pay attention to a person’s personal abilities, but instead stay on the surface. The actual achievements of a person are related to whether others are willing to obey his commands.
The position of general is particularly important. The reason why Jing Yuan can hold this position firmly, in addition to his unique understanding of the ways of the world, is that no one can deny his achievements over the past hundred years. The name of the Five Heroes of Yunshang is still widely known today.
Fu Xuan herself knew that it was not easy to be a general, but if she wanted to make up for the regret of her past helplessness and break the nightmare that had troubled her for a hundred years, she had to climb up to have a chance to achieve it.
"I can't go, at least not now. Without me, Luofu will face more and more troubles."
After thinking for a few seconds, Fu Xuan shook his head and said, "Although there is a good seed in the Taibu Division that I like, that seed has no ambition to make progress all day long. It has excellent talent and considerable ability but lives in confusion. It is not easy to turn it around in a short time."
Jing Yuan looked at her distressed face for a while, as if he was looking at something. After a moment, he smiled.
"Qingque, is this the little girl?"
He remembered the name very well, after all, he came here to prepare for this.
Fu Xuan sighed, his eyes filled with disappointment.
"Well, I have wanted to promote her for a long time, but I couldn't find a suitable reason. There is even a faction in the Taibu Division, called the 'Green Bird Faction'. Every day when they go to work, they are concerned about when to get off work. A few days ago, I heard some rumors that the fortune tellers of the Green Bird Faction hum songs that do not encourage progress all day long, and even the fortune tellers are almost assimilated."
Jing Yuan remembered that the girl from Taibusi seemed to have a good relationship with Chen Lin. Today he also received news from Yichen Inn, saying that Qingque, the fortune teller from Taibusi, could not go home due to the blockade of the air routes. Most inns were overcrowded, so he was temporarily taken in by Chen Lin and the train crew in Yichen Inn.
In the report submitted by Fu Xuan a few days ago, it was written that she sent Qingque to receive Chen Lin. Now he is willing to let Qingque stay in the inn temporarily. Perhaps the two of them have become friends?
When you reach this level, what you say and do is rarely groundless, and it is easy to tell whether you regard someone as a friend.
My dear brother will not make friends with others for no reason. Being an acquaintance and offering help have different meanings.
It seems that my brother discovered the shining points in that little girl, and his character has been confirmed and guaranteed.
He had read Qingque's information. After all, this name appeared in almost every weekly and monthly report submitted by Fu Xuan. Fu Xuan was often troubled by Qingque's slacking off at work.
How could a great fortune teller be so obsessed with a low-level fortune teller for no reason? Even to the point of fortune-telling to monitor a person's movements?
That alone is unusual.
You won’t know until you see it. Jing Yuan felt both amused and helpless when he was looking through the documents of Qingque’s life experience.
During a hundred years of campus learning and practice, Qingque kept his scores just above the passing line in every assessment, neither getting a point more nor a point less, and was criticized in public notices.
Doing so is extremely challenging for students to be able to control their own scores. They need to know how to answer and what to do in order to accurately control their score range.
Not to mention that Qingque has never had a score range, only one score!
According to the comments on her resume, her teachers were also very angry about Qingque's behavior of controlling her grades. Until graduation, no one knew what Qingque had learned and what she had not learned...
It became the most regrettable thing in these teachers' teaching career.
It’s not that Qingque didn’t have any scores other than passing scores. She got second place when she took the Taibusi exam, and the sum of her theoretical and practical scores was only 1 point lower than the first place.
General Jing Yuan, who was very considerate of others' feelings, gave a gentle reminder: "Maybe the way of persuasion and approach is wrong?"
Fu Xuan said in a puzzled tone: "What's wrong? Whenever I have time, I supervise her work and try my best to change her unhealthy mentality..."
Under the general's helpless gaze, Taibu, who was smart but had some problems, suddenly stopped talking and his facial expression gradually became stiff.
Jing Yuan nodded: "That's right, we should give her more time to relax, so that one day she will suddenly have motivation, and then the problem can be solved."
Fu Xuan's face darkened.
"The treatment of the six departments has always been very good, especially the Taibu Department."
"Well, it's really good. What if these treatments are not what she wants?"
Jing Yuan nodded and said with some regret: "The more you discipline her, the more she will go against you, so you might as well give in to her wishes. Besides, how do you know that she hasn't studied hard and exercised her abilities, Fu Qing?"
"If sleeping at work or playing cards and eating at work can be considered as exercising one's abilities, I can easily point out thousands of people like that."
"Then Mr. Fu can continue like this. While you are troubled, you are also troubled by the seeds you like. After all, Mr. Fu is wise and has his own way to deal with it, right?" Jing Yuan said with a smile.
"?"
Fu Xuan looked at Jing Yuan strangely, folded his hands and said, "General, if you have a way, just tell me. Can I blame you? If there is a way to awaken this seed, or pave the way for her future, I am willing to do it."
Jing Yuan nodded with satisfaction, and said with his hands behind his back, "Since you like to take some time off, the position of ambassador fits this requirement very well. The nature of this job belongs to two extremes."
Fu Xuan frowned, then relaxed: "When you have free time, you have nothing to do, but when you have something to do, it's hard to rest?"
"That's right! And as far as I know, this girl has a good relationship with you, and she will not delay in helping her friend. If she is sent to Yalilo-VI, and I discuss with you about adding divination, the training that Mr. Fu has in mind will be realized. This position is in diplomacy, and even if we maintain normal relations with the empire, it will also be a great achievement. This will complete her resume and give her a reason for promotion."
I don't know what kind of agreement the general has reached with the empire. Divination requires the cooperation of a creation similar to the Jade Omen to be realized. The technology of the Fairy Boat Jade Omen originated from the early Jianmu, and with the assistance of the Universally Wisdom God, divination has become very important in the Fairy Boat.
There are not many other machines that can perform similar high-intensity calculations as Yu Zhao. Only a very small number of forces have mastered the technology, and the cost of production is extremely high, not as affordable as Yu Zhao.
Does the Empire have the same technical level as the Qiongguan Formation? After spending a lot of money to make it, is it valuable enough for Yalilo-VI?
It would be embarrassing if others don't like it.
Fu Xuan silently turned her head and stared at him for a long time, even longer than the time she hesitated when Jing Yuan suddenly contacted her before.
The atmosphere in the Star Chariot fell silent for a moment.
Seeing Fu Xuan remained silent for a long time, Jing Yuan was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that a seed could make the great Taibu Si Taibu stuck for so long. This proved that his thinking might be a little conservative.
