"Bold? No, no, no, we're just welcoming friendly allies. After all, the people in the [Market Development Department] are busy with trivial matters right now, and we can't let their affairs…"

"Let our train friends be left out..."

"Humph……"

……

As the old saying goes in Xianzhou, it would be much smoother to discuss things at the dinner table. Although it was not her responsibility to receive foreign guests, she was still willing to be sincere to her friends.

but……

Why...is this a little different from what she thought?

Looking at Wen Sheng, who was frowning and "quickly destroying" the meal in the company's canteen, Topa suddenly felt as if he had punched cotton.

Is the Starry Sky Train really short of food? But why is she frowning? This food is fine for her...

I gently scooped a spoonful of fresh "curry rice" into my mouth. Hmm... it tastes very good.

Little did he know that Wen Sheng, whose taste buds had been severely stimulated by Liyue, had no interest in this simple spice compound ingredient. If it weren't for the purpose of replenishing the blood of his poor hair, he wouldn't want to eat it!

Well, since you’ve tasted it anyway, you might as well finish it. It’s shameful to waste food!

"..."

Topa and Zhangzhang looked at each other, and Zhangzhang said that the person on the other side was more like a piggy bank than himself.

Hmm... the hair is furry and very nice to touch, a white-haired human-shaped piggy bank.

"Hiccup~~"

He burped lightly, picked up the handkerchief he carried with him and wiped his mouth. Looking at Topa who seemed to be waiting for something, Wen Sheng knew that it was almost time to explain his purpose.

"Ms. Toppa, thank you for treating me to dinner. In that case, I should be frank with you and tell you... the purpose of my visit."

"coming!"

Topa's heart was shocked. She thought it would take some time before the other party could tell her the purpose of coming to Pier Point. It seemed... the other party didn't want to delay anything.

"I have a shipment that I think your company's building materials logistics department might be interested in."

Wen Sheng looked at Topa with a smile, and at the same time, he gently took out a piece of cut amber from his pocket.

This piece of cut amber is as thin as paper. It can be seen at a glance that the person who cut this sample is a bold and careful person. If he were to save even a little bit, a piece of stone would be wasted.

"Pfft!"

The moment the ore was dug out, Zhang Zhang, who was lying at Topa's feet like a kitten, suddenly stood up, his eyes lit up!

"This is……"

Staring at the amber ore, Topa did not reach out to take it immediately. Instead, the moment Wen Sheng took it out, he began to compare it with the minerals he knew.

This piece of ore... is definitely not amber, it's just similar in color, and...

Judging from the texture of this ore sample, is this ore artificially synthesized? No... if it was something artificially synthesized and worthless, the account would definitely not react so strongly.

"Ms. Toppa, why don't you take this piece of ore and experience it for yourself."

Wen Sheng handed the slice of amber to Topa.

Topa naturally did not refuse. He took the ore handed to him by Wen Sheng and held it in his hand.

The moment she got this piece of ore in her hand, she had only two feelings. One was that it was very heavy. Just a paper-like slice of the sample could make her feel some weight.

Secondly... this piece of ore is very smooth and... very warm.

Holding it in her hand, she actually felt a sense of security and peace of mind!

Here we have to mention the properties of amber. Amber is a precious mineral condensed from extremely pure rock elements. In Teyvat, amber is also called the "Heart of Rock".

The characteristic of rock element is stability.

Especially for minerals such as amber, which are condensed from high concentrations of rock elements, its stability is naturally self-evident.

"Miss Toppa, you can take it to your company's laboratory for identification. Of course, in addition to this piece of ore, I have two other ores. If Miss Toppa likes them, you can take them both for testing."

Wen Sheng handed the specimens of Qingshui Jade and Yebo Stone to Topa.

His focus was still on amber. He believed that this mineral formed by the aggregation of high-concentration elements would definitely attract the company. As for the night stone and clear water jade... just treat them as fillers!

If they were sold as ordinary gemstones... well, they should sell for a higher price than ordinary gemstones. After all, these are not ores formed by simple geological reactions, but they have reacted with elements to a greater or lesser extent during the formation process.

Well, hopefully they won't let him down!

After all, he relied on these ores to make a profit on this trip.

Of course, making money is secondary. Isn’t it nice to meet new friends?

Especially the [Strategic Investment Department] and... [Building Materials Logistics Department].

Two departments with Lingshi as their supervisor...doing business with them is much safer no matter how you think about it!

As for the Market Development Department...

Guess what, if he said he had a good relationship with the people in the marketing department, and was an unknown guest, and even a conductor of the Starry Sky Train...

With so many debuffs added together, will he become a "thorn in the eyes" of some forces in the universe that have unpleasant relations with the company?

Besides, if he did that, what difference would that make him smearing the Star Train? In that case, he would be tying himself to the company, so what's the point?

Just doing business with the company would be too boring!

Although his vision is not very broad, it is not that narrow.

"Well, I will send these samples for identification. Once the results come out, I will come to see Mr. Wen Sheng as soon as possible."

Topa carefully put away the three samples, and then spoke to Wen Sheng very seriously.

"Well, I believe Miss Toppa. Before that, I'll get back on the train."

After straightening his clothes, Wen Sheng said goodbye to Topa.

"correct……"

As if remembering something, Wen Sheng's azure eyes once again met the deep blue in Topana's eyes.

"Can you... bring me some more food?"

"what?"

Wen Sheng scratched his head a little embarrassedly. After all, Miss Liuying hadn't eaten yet, and the look Miss Liuying gave him just now...

Doesn’t it mean “I’m not going to eat there, but remember to pack some for me”?

Hmm! Really, we're so familiar with each other, why not just say no? Miss Liuying must be too shy and doesn't want to say it herself!

Chapter 40: Ninety-nine percent!

"Mouth area!"

Miss Liuying took a bite of the company employee meal that Wen Sheng brought back with an embarrassed look on her face, and then vomited it out decisively.

"This……"

With a complicated expression, he looked at the mess in front of him, and the very healthy-looking hamburger...

What was wrong with her? Weren't these things what she used to eat? Why was it so hard to swallow them now? She felt like she was eating something crudely made. The monotony made it hard to swallow!

Seeing this, Wen Sheng, who was standing by, couldn't help but look at him with sympathy and understanding.

After staying in Liyue for a long time, he really couldn't say a word about this "delicacy" that can quickly replenish energy in the interstellar era!

Now, Teyvat is simply his happy hometown! Not only is there a lot of delicious food, but he doesn't have to pay for it!

Well, although he didn’t have to pay for these things, the gap is still too big!

He now feels like a Chinese student studying abroad in his previous life, and can't forget the food of his "hometown Teyvat"!

"No, it seems I have to make an effort myself!"

Wen Sheng pursed his lips, his eyes trembling slightly, as if he had made some kind of decision!

"Wen Sheng...you don't want to..."

Seeing Wen Sheng's resolute expression, Liuying's heart skipped a beat, and a very ominous premonition came to her mind.

"That's right! I want to learn how to cook Liyue dishes myself!"

"!"

Upon hearing this, Miss Liuying immediately showed a horrified expression!

As everyone knows, there have been many explosions in the history of the Star Train. The most famous one was the explosion of the Joy God. As for another famous one...

That was definitely the time when the conductor of the Starry Sky Train Line 2 almost blew himself up while cooking!

"Actually... I don't think it's wrong to eat the company's food. Otherwise... I'd better learn it!"

"Ah? But Liuying, don't you hate cooking the most..."

"It's better than you, an idiot, blowing up the train!"

"Hey!"

"state!"

"Woo woo woo, wrong, wrong!"

……

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. How is the conductor?"

In the laboratory of the Knowledge Society, the blond man who had been waiting for a long time walked towards Topa who had just walked into the laboratory with a smile, as if he had expected her to come here.

"You calculated this?"

Topa was not surprised to see the person in front of him. On the contrary, after seeing him, those unreasonable things could be explained.

"No...I guessed."

Gold Dust shrugged nonchalantly.

"I investigated what happened after the train appeared. Compared to the famous Ji Zi, their whereabouts are obviously more secretive."

A rough route map was handed to Topa, on which were written all the recorded routes of this currently unknown train.

"Um……"

Looking at the extremely strange route and the behavior with no apparent purpose, Topa frowned.

"You know... instead of the Star Train, I prefer to call it... the Ghost Train!"

"There's no record of it. It just appeared out of thin air in the star track, passed through a few planets and bought some very common food. Then it came to the [Garbage Station] and spent a lot of money to buy a bunch of unwanted junk. And then... it disappeared without a trace again..."

"And his next appearance..."

Gold Dust stared at Topa with a smile.

"It's now……"

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Topa immediately figured something out.

"Yes, otherwise why is it considered a ghost train? As for the rest, there's no need for an outsider like me to explain it."

"You're right, professor."

Those beautiful eyes slowly moved to the blue-haired figure in the laboratory.

"Humph……"

Veritas Latio turned his head away silently. He didn't want to get involved too much in the intrigue within the company.

Even if he is already involved.

"Bring the stuff up here."

Latio glanced at Topa lightly, still looking cold.

He walked gently past Shajin, ignoring his smiling face, and went straight to Latio's side.

"These are the three ore samples that the [Train Conductor] brought."

After handing the three mineral samples to the [Doctor of Truth], Topa said to him.

"Thank you."
