Driven out of her home by her biased parents and cruel older sister, Su Tao decided to cut ties with them completely, vowing to rather starve, freeze, and wander outside for a lifetime than ever re...
Taoyang Plantation started the basic work in an orderly manner.
Su Tao, who was in Shou'an, couldn't eat or sleep well.
The weather was too hot, so her appetite was poor and she was often woken up by the heat at night. In two days, she looked much more haggard.
Lin Fangzhi was anxious and offered her her favorite candy, but she refused to eat it.
At this time, Shi Zijin and his group, who had not shown up for three days, came back.
Perhaps the negotiations over the past three days were not smooth, and the expressions of several people were very bad.
Su Tao opened the door and asked them to go to her and Guan Zining's room to rest.
Cen Tianjiao saw the layout of the room and wailed:
"We are sacrificing our lives on the battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder, and you are enjoying life here. It's so hard."
Shi Zijin frowned as he looked at Su Tao's thin face:
"What's going on?"
Then he looked at his guardian, Miss Guan, with a questioning look in his eyes.
Guan Zining complained: "I didn't abuse her."
Su Tao yawned, tears welling up in her eyes:
"It's so hot. How was your conversation? When can we leave?"
She wanted to get back to her car quickly, turn on the air conditioner and have a good sleep.
I also want to eat ice cream and fresh vegetables and go home.
Shi Zijin snatched the fan from Lin Fangzhi's hand and fanned her himself:
"We're almost done talking. You can pick up Xiao Jian tomorrow, and then we'll leave. Also, I've heard about Wu Jianyi for you. I'm sorry, but he's no longer alive."
Su Tao had expected this, but still felt a little disappointed. Mr. Mei must have been very sad to hear this news.
"But he has a son named Wu Zhen, who's still in Shou'an. He's a very capable wood-type user. I heard he can communicate with plants and has cultivated many ornamental plants from before the apocalypse. He's currently being raised as a gardener by a wealthy man in Shou'an."
Can you communicate with plants?
Her plantation is short of talent!
Su Tao's eyes widened and she asked, "Can we contact him?"
Shi Zijin smiled and said, "The rich man invited us to be his guest tonight. Perhaps you can take this opportunity to invite him to live in Taoyang."
Su Tao took the fan and fanned him vigorously: "Major General, you have worked hard. When we return to Taoyang, I will personally pick a bunch of fresh vegetables produced in Taoyang and make you a cold dish."
Cen Tianjiao looked bitter: "Boss, can I not go?"
Shi Zijin was stern and impartial: "Everyone will remember your sacrifice."
Su Tao was confused: "What's wrong?"
Dang Xingyan and the others were almost dying of laughter: "Boss Su, you'll know when you get there tonight."
In the evening, Su Tao brought four bottles of milk and put them in a nice bag as a gift for the visit.
The hostess who invited them was named Jiang Qingxiang. Her husband and brother were the largest arms manufacturer in Shouan. Their family could be said to be the economic lifeline of Shouan, and the weapons they produced were sold to many bases in the north.
Even most of Dongyang’s official weapons were purchased from Shouan.
Shi Zijin said that his expensive pistol, which cost 80,000 federal coins and 6,200 contribution points, was made by Shouan.
Su Tao thought to herself, no wonder they are so rich, their family even hired a person with special abilities to take care of the garden.
She said to Guan Zining:
"That's called extravagance and luxury. What I'm doing is just enjoying a good life at best."
Guan Zining had no good feelings towards this kind of person and said bluntly:
"That's called a warlord. You suck the blood of the common people and build your extravagant life on the suffering of ordinary people. You are not like that. You give yourself a three-point good life, and you will give others a four-point better life. Otherwise, you wouldn't follow us out there, eating poorly, sleeping poorly, and your life is not guaranteed."
After saying that, she was silent for a moment, and called Su Tao a fool in her heart.
But fools have their own luck.
I hope God will give this silly girl more blessings.
It’s okay to give all her blessings to Su Tao.
At the agreed time, several people arrived at the city center of Shou'an - the wealthy area of Xin'an.
The outer wall is built very high and solid, comparable to Taoyang.
The gate was still electronically scanned, and four burly security guards, fully armed, stood on both sides guarding the gate.
After verifying their identities and getting permission from the owner through a phone call, the few of them entered smoothly.
Led by a man dressed as a butler, we got into a car and drove for about ten minutes before finally arriving at Jiang Qingxiang's home.
What comes into view is a three-story villa with a sunken courtyard in front, surrounded by lush green plants and flowers.
There is also a stream in the courtyard that runs through the villa, and you can even see small koi fish swimming in the water.
The most eye-catching thing is the long dining table in the middle, which is filled with rare green vegetables, a whole roasted chicken, exquisite snacks, and iced sour plum juice.
Su Tao was completely stunned.
The inside and outside of Shouan's city center are simply two different worlds.
There are starving people and corpses everywhere on the road outside, but there are villas, streams, and delicacies from mountains and seas inside.
The housekeeper hurriedly knocked on the door, and out came a plump, rich lady with a round face and a confident voice. Seeing them arrive, she greeted them warmly:
"You're finally here. Brother Cen, were you hot on the way here? I'll pour you a cup of sour plum soup to quench your thirst first."
Cen Tianjiao's body trembled.
Dang Xingyan and the others wanted to laugh but didn't dare, and their faces turned red from trying to hold it in.
Su Tao understood and opened her mouth in shock.
This rich woman has taken a fancy to Cen Tianjiao. No wonder she invited them to be her guests. I guess she just wanted Cen Tianjiao to come.
I didn’t expect that the rich woman would like Cen Tianjiao.
But in fact, if you look closely, Cen Laoer has a muscular body and bronze skin. He has been marching for many years and has the blood of a soldier. He is very manly, so it is not surprising that he can attract women.
Then I thought again, Shi Zijin was betraying his teammates.
She looked at Shi Zijin on the side, but found that he was upright and had no guilt at all.
Su Tao was full of admiration.
So, the rich lady Jiang took Cen Tianjiao, who looked like he had lost all hope in life, to a small pavilion nearby to talk about life.
Su Tao and her friends could have a buffet and move around freely in the courtyard and on the first floor of the villa.
She had no appetite, so after eating a few bites of vegetables, she pretended to walk around with the sour plum juice in her hand, "admiring the scenery" and looking for the "gardener".
There are many servants in Mrs. Jiang’s house, and the people cleaning are coming and going in a hurry.
There is a back garden of about 300 square meters behind the villa, planted with various flowers and ornamental plants, which simply dazzled Su Tao.
Useless ornamental plants can grow so well. If this ability is used on edible vegetables, can it increase the harvest, speed up the life cycle of plants, or even improve the genes of seeds?
The more Su Tao thought about it, the more excited she became. However, after searching for a long time, she still didn't see Wu Zhen.
She turned on the communicator to confirm the other person's appearance again, trying to remember if she had missed him among the group of servants.
Sadly, he's not there.
"Hasn't the person been found?" Shi Zijin also came over with a cup of sour plum soup and asked.
Su Tao shook her head.
Shi Zijin thought for a moment, took out his communicator and sent a message to Cen Tianjiao:
You told Jiang Qingxiang that you really liked the blue roses in the courtyard. You heard that she had some talented people under her, so you asked her to call Wu Zhen over so that you could see the blue rose cultivation process with your own eyes.
Then edited another sentence:
Don't be stupid, say something nice to her and coax her to call someone over.
