The task was not difficult, or rather, it was quite easy, but Cheng Zhen and Jiang Wan exchanged a glance and keenly sensed the hint of conspiracy within it.
"Heh, this is a task specifically assigned because they know the botanist is here. There's no room for refusal!" Old Chen showed the document to Jiang Wan.
It is clearly stated above that the plants exchanged for Ω in each delivery must be unique.
Jiang Wan raised an eyebrow and accepted the task.
Cheng Zhen went back with Old Chen alone and asked, "Should we still go to Zhusha City?"
"go!"
Old Chen glanced at him and said, "The world is a dangerous place. We need to be prepared for both possibilities. We must keep control of the private mines in Lianchuan."
Cheng Zhen met his gaze silently. The two understood each other without saying a word. In this oxygen-deprived apocalypse, they couldn't completely trust what was happening in Dragon City.
The next morning, before the twins were even awake, Jiang Wan went to the countryside with Cheng Zhen.
She searched the wilderness along the direction of the trench she had dug the day before, and sure enough, she found a large patch of Canadian goldenrod.
She sighed, "Just dig it up."
He heard about the mutation of the Canadian goldenrod outside the city last time, but he never expected the real thing to look like this: "This thing really can't be planted?"
Yu Fen and the others were also curious and even picked its flower spikes: "These flowers look quite beautiful!"
Don't touch it!
Jiang Wan emphasized: "Wrap its flower spikes in a bag and cut them off separately, otherwise countless Canadian goldenrods will grow here in the future."
"In addition to cutting down the plants, all the roots and stems underground must be dug up, and the branches, flower spikes and roots must all be burned to prevent future problems. We cannot give it any chance to grow. If there is any loophole, it will immediately grow into a patch, and it will reproduce and grow very quickly. Its vitality is tenacious and domineering. Wherever it goes, not a blade of grass will grow."
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock. How could someone be so domineering?
"That won't do! The city's protective shield is about to be expanded here!"
"Yes, we have to solve this problem once and for all, otherwise we'll have to deal with it again and again, which is such a hassle!"
Yu Fen and the others carefully followed Professor Jiang Wan's steps to begin tidying up the Canadian goldenrod.
But when it came to the last step, they ran into trouble.
There are quite a few Canadian goldenrods in this area, and as far as the eye can see, there are many more in the distance. Burning so much debris will not only pollute the environment but also consume a lot of oxygen.
It doesn't seem like a good deal no matter how you look at it.
"How about we just release them into the wild?" Yu Fen suggested. "Anyway, the wild is an oxygen-free environment now, so they're basically dormant anyway, and there's even less of a threat now."
"inappropriate,"
Jiang Wan categorically denied it, saying, "If your enemies find out about this, they only need a few seeds to destroy the entire forest farm that we have painstakingly built."
"Oh, right!" Yu Fen and the others suddenly realized, and didn't forget to flatter, "Sister-in-law is so thoughtful! An expert is indeed an expert!"
Cheng Zhen smacked him on the back of the head: "Don't burn him, send him for a cryogenic burial!"
"Wow! Boss, you're awesome! How come we didn't think of such a great idea!"
Burning pollutes the air and consumes oxygen, while cryogenic burial only uses liquid nitrogen!
Wow, so energy-efficient and environmentally friendly!
He was in high spirits and told the young men to immediately carry away the corpse of the Canadian goldenrod, while the rest stayed behind to continue clearing out the Canadian goldenrod.
“It looks like we can’t go to town today. Are you staying here or going back?” Cheng Zhen asked her.
Jiang Wan chose to go back: "I want to go back to Yincheng Yazuo."
What do you want?
Cheng Zhen instinctively felt uneasy about her going back alone, "Didn't you move all your things out of your house?"
Everything is in her tree hole space, is there anything else that needs to be retrieved?
Jiang Wan thought for a moment and then said truthfully, "I need to go back and check on my house."
Cheng Zhen choked. That's true. You can't take the house with you, but it would be upsetting if someone else took it.
"Are you going now?" Cheng Zhen calculated the time; Song Hui's goods should be ready to be received by the time it was time. "Wait a moment, I'll go with you."
Seeing that he was very busy, Jiang Wan thought to herself, "Isn't it unnecessary?"
As soon as the twins heard that she was going back to the city, they immediately stopped sleeping in, got out of their warm beds on their own, got dressed, washed up, ate breakfast, and then stood at the door in unison, eagerly waiting to leave.
It's like a country child longing to go to the city; it actually looks a bit pitiful.
Jiang Wan couldn't bring herself to refuse; if she were to bring them along, Cheng Zhen would naturally be included.
Xiangcheng was divided in two, and Yincheng Yazuo happened to be the boundary of the outer city's military area. A barbed wire fence was erected outside the community from east to west, with people stationed on both sides to prevent people from crossing the boundary easily.
When they arrived, some people were trying to cross the border from the inner city, causing a commotion.
"You guys go in, I'll go take a look." It was Cheng Zhen's duty; he couldn't ignore the trouble he saw.
"Um."
This is already a residential area, and the area outside is guarded by city guards, so there shouldn't be any danger. Jiang Wan led the twins inside.
Cheng Zhen was still worried, so he took a whistle out of his pocket and hung it around Jiang Xiaoshu's neck, instructing, "If there's any danger, blow it, and I'll appear immediately to protect you!"
Jiang Xiaoshu gave a faint "hmm" and put away the whistle indifferently.
Has he forgotten whose purification ability he copied?
Why use this whistle when you have superpowers?
Tsk, they really do get dumber as they get older!
The neighborhood has seen many new faces, but there are still some familiar faces. They were quite surprised to see her return with her child.
The residents' group chat quickly buzzed with excitement: "The owner of apartment 1701 in building 1 has appeared! Who spread the rumor that she died? Come out and be punished! She's alive and well, and she's even raising twins who are healthy and chubby!"
"Oh, you saw her? Did you ask her where she's been hiding away all this time, living a good life?"
"The question upstairs is really unnecessary. She already said that her husband is a city guard, so he's definitely living a life of luxury with his family!"
"That's true, now our community is surrounded by city guards."
"So who exactly saw it? Who is her man? Which high-ranking official is he?"
This remark had a very sour, sullen tone. The person who asked the question had the online name "Anonymous Immortal," which was Ge Youcai.
Although he was afraid of Cheng Zhen and knew he couldn't beat him, what if Cheng Zhen hadn't come?
snort!
Jiang Wan's biological father, stepmother, and sister killed her mother. This grudge must be settled, right?
His cold gaze was fixed on the screen until someone posted a video with the caption: "Didn't see her, just her and the two kids."
Ge Youcai watched the video carefully again and again, making sure Cheng Zhen wasn't beside her, before straightening his back, giving a cold smile, and going out downstairs.
When Jiang Wan and the others arrived at their doorstep, Jiang Xiaoxin wrinkled her nose and suddenly exclaimed in disgust, "Mom, it smells so bad here!"
