Chapter 844: Worry instead of joy
At the end of September, the sky is always overcast and the temperature is getting lower and lower, giving people an ominous feeling.
The vegetables in the agricultural area grew crooked and malnourished, but they sprouted and grew anyway.
For those with a short growth period, Ye Wengui had already had the first batch harvested and stored after dehydration. For those with a slightly longer growth period, he would let them stay in the soil for another two days, depending on the situation.
In Dijing, Li Sikai received a warm welcome when he returned. Chief Alliance Officer Li went to pick him up personally and hugged him, his excitement beyond words.
There was no other way. His nephew was sent out to perform tasks and could not come back for several years. He suffered so much that his relatives had already complained. But Li Sikai persisted and completed the task brilliantly.
He is proud of him!
Chief Alliance Officer Li looked at the people around him and didn't ask anything. He just said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"
Li Sikai smiled and saluted: "Reporting to the general alliance officer, Li Sikai, Xiong Jianwei, Geng Zhixing, and Sun Sainan have successfully completed the mission!"
"Okay, you've worked hard. Let's go back and rest first!"
Others didn't know what mission Li Sikai had completed, but Qiu Man knew it. He quickly asked someone to prepare lunch, and then followed General Alliance Officer Li back to the building.
After there were no outsiders, General Alliance Officer Li asked about the details of the mission. Li Sikai kept it short and took General Alliance Officer Li into the space.
This office has no cameras or radio equipment, so it is absolutely safe. Xiong Jianwei and his men are guarding the door, so they are not afraid of anyone breaking in.
Chief Alliance Officer Li was surprised to see the change in the scenery. He asked Li Sikai in surprise: "Is this really Yuan Ruoxi's space? How did you recognize the master?"
Li Sikai nodded: "When we completed the mission, Lao Xiong fell ill. We couldn't bear to leave him behind, so we had no choice but to recognize him as our master. This is what the space looked like after I recognized him as my master. I'm not sure what Yuan Ruoxi opened up, but I guess she only had the space inside the thatched hut."
Chief Alliance Officer Li walked in and took a look. He understood, "The things inside are all hers...that thing?"
"Not all of them. There are a lot of them. They are all new crops that my partners and I have planted and harvested during this period."
Chief Alliance Officer Li looked up and said, "Partners? In addition to the few people outside the door, are there others?"
"Yes, Shen Yanming and his wife, as well as several teammates along the way. They were all very nice, I didn't ask too many questions, and I didn't covet them."
"How do you know?" Chief Alliance Officer Li had already thought of a countermeasure in his mind. He would not allow any danger to hide around his nephew.
"Feelings!" Li Sikai saw that General Alliance Officer Li had a serious expression, so he smiled and brought him a bowl of fruit. "Don't be so nervous. Come, let's talk while we eat."
Chief Alliance Officer Li shook his head and laughed. He took it and tasted the mulberry. It was sour and sweet and very delicious.
Li Sikai also tasted one and said, "It's a pity that there are no other fruit trees. I found some seeds and just planted them, but they haven't grown tall yet. After a year or two, they should be able to bloom and bear fruit."
Chief Alliance Officer Li didn't want to joke with him, so he said directly: "Don't talk nonsense to me. Tell me, what's going on? Why are you spreading the word about the space everywhere?"
Li Sikai smiled and pointed at the large piece of land: "I can't do anything about it. The space needs to be upgraded with faith value."
"Faith value? Can it be upgraded?" Chief Alliance Officer Li was not happy at all after hearing this. Originally, he wanted to keep the news secret, but now...
"Yes, I received this information after I recognized the main space."
Chief Alliance Officer Li put down the bowl in his hand, looked at the hundreds of acres of almost mature rice around him, and sighed: "If I had known, I would not have let you participate in this mission." Being restricted in his freedom was not what he wanted at all.
Li Sikai patted General Alliance Officer Li on the back and consoled him, "Uncle, we didn't know that space could be used for planting before, so we didn't take it seriously. But now, do you dare to let someone else hold such a heaven-defying thing?"
Chief Alliance Officer Li remained silent, feeling very uncomfortable.
Li Sikai pretended to be relaxed: "It's okay, it's just that I don't have freedom. The situation outside is so serious now, it's a blessing to be able to retire in the guard team. What's more, I have such a large space, which shows that I have achieved food freedom."
"Do you think they will let you go easily?" Chief Alliance Officer Li got a headache when he thought of certain people.
It’s not that they are bad, but some of them value the country too much. Once they know the news, they will definitely use his nephew to death.
Li Sikai didn't care at all and said, "There is always room for people to come in here. When the time comes, you can arrange a few laborers to come in and work every day. As for me, I will just sit back and relax."
Chief Alliance Officer Li nodded and could only accept this suggestion. He walked around the space with the bowl in his hand, wanting to take a closer look. When he reached the edge of the thick fog, he stretched out his hand and pushed it, but it didn't move.
"That is a spatial barrier. Only by upgrading it can the spatial area be doubled."
"Can you feel how long it will take to upgrade?"
"No, I haven't collected much faith points, and the space is still in its initial state."
Chief Alliance Officer Li thought for a moment and said, "Well, you can keep this as Qinghua's secret weapon and don't announce it to the public for now. I will call a meeting with other alliance officers tomorrow, and then we can all go into the space together to discuss and see how to maximize the benefits."
Li Sikai had no objection.
There is no way. If you want to upgrade, this space cannot be kept secret. And collecting faith points through official channels is the fastest way to upgrade.
After the two of them discussed it, Chief Alliance Officer Li asked Li Sikai to send him out of the space.
Li Sikai said, "Look at you, you are so skinny that only bones are left. Come and see if there is anything you want to eat. Eat it now or take it out later. I will give you some nourishment."
Chief Alliance Officer Li pointed his finger at them and said, "You are just showing off and don't know what sorrow is."
Li Sikai didn't care: "I finally have the space, so I must find some benefits for myself. Otherwise, I'll be working for nothing?" Although he planned to use this space for the country, it was his own after all.
Chief Alliance Officer Li looked at the watermelons crawling on the ground and felt a little tempted. He said, "Just take two watermelons. Everyone has worked hard this year and hasn't had a good meal." Even the big guys in Dijing are no better than ordinary people in terms of food and drink.
Li Sikai nodded, took his uncle out of the space, and placed five watermelons in the corner: "I'll give you a few more, eat them yourself when you're free, don't be reluctant."
Chief Alliance Officer Li said "hmm" and pushed Li Sikai out of the office: "Okay, go back and have a rest. You must be tired after working outside for these few years, right?"
Li Sikai waved his hand: "It's okay, but it's time to go home and say hello."
Then he looked at his comrades at the door and said, "After we have dinner, we can go home."
Several people looked at Chief Alliance Officer Li, and saw him smiling and saying, "Have a good rest, and come to the meeting tomorrow."
"Yes!" several people responded in unison.
