Chapter 370 Chapter 372
"You were allowed to eat such a rare thing? You dared to eat it without any scientific research analysis, and you were not afraid that it might be poisonous!" Director Qian said with great sorrow.
"Director Qian, your worry is unnecessary. There is no poison in the world that our Sister Rong cannot cure, and there is no poison that our Sister Rong cannot recognize." Jiang Jie said with some pride.
"Ahem." Rong Xianxian blushed after hearing this. No matter how conceited she was, she couldn't bear the consequences of saying this. The most she could say was that she hadn't encountered a poison that she couldn't cure.
"Do you know that for every abnormal creature, through research and analysis, we can find their weaknesses, attack strength, the uses of the materials on their bodies and other characteristics. This plays an important role in our understanding of this abnormal creature. Now, it's gone just like that?" Director Qian still found it difficult to accept for a while.
"I have summarized the attack strength, weaknesses and the uses of the main materials on the body. Look, I have also drawn the appearance and internal structure. I can give it to you for reference." Rong Xianxian took out an album from the small square table next to the sofa, turned to the last page, and pointed it to Director Qian.
This picture album was drawn by her herself, and it records all the monsters, mutants or abnormal creatures she has encountered.
I wonder if this giant river clam that can spit ice arrows can also be considered a mutant beast?
Director Qian took it and looked at it, then immediately asked Rong Xianxian for a piece of paper and copied it on the spot.
"Ms. Rong, I know that the several exploration teams under your command are all very strong. If you encounter something like this that you have never seen before, you can negotiate the price if you are not satisfied with it. But please do not eat it casually again, okay?" Director Qian said helplessly.
"Okay." Rong Xianxian agreed verbally, but she was thinking in her heart, at worst if I come across this kind of strange thing in the future, I will take a look at it first and then decide whether to sell it to you?
"Haha, that's good, that's good." Director Qian chuckled twice.
"Guests are welcome. Since you are here and it is already noon, why don't you stay for a meal? And try the clam meat." Rong Xianxian invited politely.
Rong Xianxian's original intention was to remind them that they were having a meal, and if there was nothing else, they should leave quickly. After all, it was a very cold day, and no matter how bright the fire in the house was, the food on the table would get cold after a while.
But Director Qian was no ordinary person. He seemed to be waiting for her to say this. He smiled and said, "Since Ms. Rong said so, we are sorry to bother you."
Rong Xianxian gritted her teeth secretly, wishing she could take back what she had said. She wanted to stay for dinner, but she thought, "You should have said less just now. You have wasted so much time."
Three more sets of bowls and chopsticks were added. Rong Xianxian went to the kitchen and brought out three stoves, put the pots on, added water and base ingredients, and turned on the fire.
With the addition of three outsiders, they became less casual in speaking. Everyone focused on eating and communicated less than before.
They had already eaten half full, and there were not many dishes like boiled fish left. Fortunately, the portions of hotpot vegetables and meat were large enough for everyone.
"Ms. Rong, I heard that you are going to the capital. I wonder if you are really going to leave after the snow melts?" Director Qian asked while eating.
"Why does Director Qian ask this question?" Rong Xianxian asked back.
"Ms. Rong, don't worry. Qian just thinks that Ms. Rong is a talented person. If she develops in our Jindu, it won't take long for her to become a well-known figure in the safe zone." Perhaps because he was grateful for the favor, Director Qian flattered Rong Xianxian without any psychological pressure.
"Director Qian, you are too kind. In this world, no matter where you go, you are just trying to survive. I am no exception." Rong Xianxian replied vaguely.
"Haha, people like Ms. Rong can live well anywhere. As for the meal on your table, Qian has never even eaten it at the director's place in our exchange!" Director Qian said with a big laugh.
"We have mountains and seas in Jindu, rich resources and abundant products. The people in power are far-sighted and courageous. The safety zone is built very solidly and safely. It is definitely not a small place that cannot withstand shocks." Speaking of the safety zone, Director Qian's words were full of pride.
Although Director Qian talked about this and that at the dinner table and kept talking to Rong Xianxian, trying to ask her questions and find out information, unfortunately Rong Xianxian was not the type to answer questions immediately. She was very alert and evaded the question with a few words. In addition, Xia Kai, Feng Xingjia and others kept interrupting and changing the subject. After the meal, Director Qian did not get any information he wanted to know. He glanced at the two subordinates beside him, who said nothing and buried their heads in eating, not noticing Director Qian's dissatisfied look at all.
After the meal, it’s time to make a wish, cut the birthday cake, and eat the cake.
Feng Xingjia held the cream cake in his hands with a somewhat depressed look on his face. He had a wife, elderly people and children at home, and he felt bad for enjoying a big meal alone. He wanted to bring this cake to his family to have a taste.
Among the eight people invited by Rong Xianxian, only one was injured and then sick, and was abandoned by his teammates and rescued by Rong Xianxian. He was the only one who was alone. The others were dragged down by their families and fell into difficulties, so they turned to Rong Xianxian.
The young man without family had almost finished eating the cake, but the others hadn't moved yet. Like Feng Xingjia, they were all thinking about their families.
When Rong Xianxian saw this, she knew what they were thinking and immediately tried to smooth things over, "It seems that the meal I prepared is too sumptuous and everyone is full. Why don't you take the cake home and share it with your family?" Rong Xianxian gave everyone a small paper box for the cake. Fortunately, she had baked enough cakes and even made a three-foot cake so that everyone could get a big piece.
After expressing their gratitude, Feng Xingjia and the others packed up their share of cake. Looking at the small and exquisite cake boxes, they couldn't wait to go home and see the happy faces of the children.
"Doctor Rong, thank you for your hospitality. I'm sorry for your hard work today. If there is nothing else, I won't bother you." After finishing the cake, Feng Xingjia was the first to say goodbye.
"Okay, I've prepared a gift for everyone. It contains some snacks, one for each person." Rong Xianxian pointed to the eight large gift boxes on the low table in the living room, which contained some snacks such as biscuits, candies, and dried meat.
"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Come back before dinner. I have something to give you." Rong Xianxian prepared a decent weapon and armor for each of them. She had originally planned to give them today, but Director Qian and his two men were standing here, so she had to ask them to come back tomorrow.
