Chapter 122: Alone and Wimpy
That day, Sheng Yulan led them to the planting base. The Manchurian ash planting base was very large, the largest of the four bases, with the highest quality seeds, the most advanced planting machines, and the best planters.
"Master Bian is really generous." Shi Qixuan said with emotion.
"That's probably her cleverness," Yun Xiang nodded in agreement. "Since she's already made concessions, why not generously give the best? Even if nothing is achieved in the end, we can still be on good terms with Mercury Academy. If there's a first year, there's a second year. If we can stay for a month, we can stay for a year. There's always a chance, right?"
"So patient."
"Yeah." Otherwise, how could this be? Yun Xiang thought he was quite patient, but compared to others, he was still far behind.
"Wow wow wow!" As Shi Qixuan entered, the scene almost blinded her.
Yun Xiang almost whistled. Wow, this is called modern farming. They are both farming planets, but the difference between them and Chaihe Star is like heaven and earth.
A plantation technician taps a few times on a smart keyboard, and dozens of tillers race across the fields simultaneously. Once the tillage is complete, they switch gears and level the soil. Once the soil is ready, they lay the mulch. In less than an hour, all the basic work is complete.
Planting was a complex process, requiring the planter to adjust the program for nearly half an hour before getting it right. In short, all planting was done by machine. Yun Xiang watched the entire process with envy. She had grown up digging the soil, and aside from the machine leveling the ground, they planted everything manually.
"Roll your eyes. This is the treatment of senior planters. It has nothing to do with you."
"Huh?" Yun Xiang rubbed his eyes, waiting for the next words. Sheng Yulan said nothing and led them further inside.
Soon they came upon semi-automated labor, some of which required manual work, primarily focusing on planting and fertilizing. Not bad, they thought, not that bad, but then they realized this wasn't their territory at all and continued walking further in.
This... Although the machine is rarely used, it can process the land, help with harvesting, and do the most tiring work. Everyone comforted themselves.
"We're here!" Sheng Yulan crossed her arms and looked at everyone, clearly looking forward to the show. After staying here year after year, she had to find some fun, right?
"Where is the machine?" Shi Qixuan asked the question on everyone's mind, except Yun Xiang, because she saw an extremely familiar tool, a shovel.
"A machine?" Everyone stretched their necks. "No!"
"Ah—" one of the boys cried out amidst the groans, "What should we do if we don't have a machine? Are we going to plan by hand?"
"Try digging one out!" Sheng Yulan looked at the boy with extreme disdain, then signaled him with her eyes, "Over there!" The boy followed her gaze and said, "What...what is this?"
"...no common sense." Sheng Yulan saw that most people looked confused, and her expression changed instantly (although it was not visible), and her attitude became very stern, "Didn't you learn about it before choosing the planting department?" Everyone blushed and felt ashamed.
Knowing that shame can still be saved, Sheng Yulan nodded and taught diligently, picking up a shovel to demonstrate to everyone, such as how to use it, how deep the soil should be turned to be effective, etc.
The whole afternoon, everyone was turning the soil, from sandy soil to red mud soil, then to saline-alkali land, yellow soil to black soil, and so on. They walked around these fields one by one.
"lady!"
"Have you investigated everything clearly?" Bian Qin looked at his housekeeper Azhi.
"It's clear now. Bai Feng is indeed Bai Ping."
"Really?" Bian Qin's face was filled with excitement. He suddenly stood up from his chair. His sharp eyes, honed by his position at the center of power, now had a touch of warmth. "Did he find out?"
"No." Ah Zhi shook his head, looking helpless. Just when he had a clue, it was gone again. Madam must be heartbroken again.
"Not yet?" Bian Qin slumped down in her chair, her face full of disappointment, but she quickly collected her emotions and returned to her usual sharpness and composure.
"What's your guess?"
"If he really changes his name, it might be hard to find him." Ah Zhi replied carefully. She felt very oppressed by such a lady.
Bian Qin rubbed his eyebrows. Due to long-term frowning, there were deep marks between his eyebrows. He could touch it away, but it would remain again. Bian Qin ignored it and kept it to deter others. So far, the effect is really good.
"Even if it's hard to find, you have to find it. Anyway, you have to find it, okay?"
"yes."
"How did Bian Xuan know about Bai Feng?" He was able to hide it from her, what a good trick.
"I overheard someone else's conversation and then went to the Mercenary Guild to buy the information."
"Oh, what an accident!" Bian Qin sneered. Only a few people knew she had given birth, either that bastard from the Bai family or those bastards from Qian Zedong. This matter was inseparable from them.
"Did the Bai family find out who they were looking for?"
"That's him." Bian Qin sneered again, "What has the Five Coin Mercenary Group done recently?"
"Qian Zedong is still on Jiaoxing Star, and he's determined to defend it. Qian Zebei is a weapon-refining enthusiast, and he rarely leaves the furnace. Qian Zezhong's whereabouts are erratic, and our men always come up empty-handed."
"He is the youngest of the brothers, and indeed the most cunning."
"Qian Zexi has arrived at Cangqiong Star for two days."
"Well, I hope he is the breakthrough point." Azhi agreed silently. It's difficult.
Bian Qin knew from her expression that it was difficult. She was just an ordinary person back then, and yet she'd made it this far. She never regretted anything she'd done, and if she had the chance to do it again, she'd still make the same choice. Wu Qian had done well, but he was still far behind her.
"Give me Bai Feng's information!"
"good!"
"Two daughters and a son?"
"Yes, it's the same as what Bian Xuan said, Yun Ting, Yun Xi, and Yun Yunyang." The Yun family did this in secret, and no one else knew about it except their own family members.
"Bang!" Bian Qin's expression suddenly changed. She waved her hand and threw the information away. She said almost gritting her teeth, "She is so lucky. All the children she gave birth to are awakened. One of them even has superpowers. Ha, ha ha, it's so funny, so funny!" Bian Qin suddenly laughed out loud. As she laughed, tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.
Ah Zhi on the side was horrified. She had never seen such a lady before. She knew that the more she knew, the more dangerous it would be. She thought of a way to deal with it quickly in her mind and stepped towards Bian Qin with both legs. She must not be cowardly at this time. "Madam." Since she was forced to see it, she had to show her loyalty and ability. Useful people will not be abandoned.
"I'm fine!" Bian Qin looked at Ah Zhi expressionlessly. The moment he stood up, he suddenly pulled out the energy gun and pointed it at her forehead. "You shouldn't have seen that."
Ah Zhi looked back at Bian Qin without changing his expression, "Madam, you need me."
"Oh?" Bian Qin raised his eyebrows.
Ah Zhi responded with a strong tone, "You are alone now!"
