"Hehe!" Chensha chuckled twice upon hearing this, raising her hands in a gesture of surrender: "I'm sorry, Miss Ajiang, please pretend I just farted, don't take it to heart."
Jiang Si kicked the pillar behind her casually: "Wouldn't it have been better if we had done this earlier? You too, I heard from your little insect emperor that you almost became his brother-in-law."
"Although you and his brother are destined to be apart, he has already regarded you as his brother-in-law. You are his most capable assistant and his most loyal supporter. He has no other relatives, only you. You can worry about his marriage for him."
"The Zerg are so vast, wouldn't it be better to find someone of their own kind to interbreed and produce adorable little bugs? Why are you eyeing me, someone with reproductive isolation? Do you want to die out your lineage?"
"No, no, no, please don't! We humans have a saying: 'Of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is to have no offspring.' This little insect is so beautiful and powerful; as the ruler of a nation, he must have a beautiful successor, so..."
Chensha picked up where she left off and asked, "So... why did you marry Agares? He has no fertility, and you'll be childless and without descendants."
Jiang Si smiled and said, "You might not believe it, but I'm after his face, his eight-pack abs, and his infertility. As for his money and power, those are secondary."
Chensha frowned: "You can't even have children yourself?"
Jiang Si paused for a moment, then seized the opportunity, extending her index finger to make a shushing gesture, misleading Chen Sha: "See through it but don't say it!"
Chensha asked in confusion, "Even so, you've already lost your lineage, why don't you choose our Emperor?"
Jiang Si said "Oh," and then sighed heavily: "Maybe I'm being racist!"
"Forget it!" Chensha exhaled a long breath: "It's because our emperor is incompetent, and our insect race is unlucky to be unable to marry a planter as excellent as you. It's no wonder that all our insect race's planets cannot be covered in greenery and we can't eat the freshest and highest quality fruits and vegetables."
"Sigh!" Chensha sighed heavily again. "Miss Ajiang, considering how pitiful our insect race is, could you please lower the price of vegetables a little? Don't be fooled by the number of insects; actually, many of us are not making any money."
Ginger shreds: "..."
After all that talk, going around in circles, all he did was try to get her to lower the price of vegetables. This tactic, this huge trap—no wonder he's a marshal; most people wouldn't be able to figure this out.
"Alright, alright, stop complaining about being poor." Jiang Si asked, "All fruit and vegetable prices remain the same. By the way, how much money do you have right now?"
Chensha's eyes lit up with joy: "What, do you want to make a deal with me on the spot?"
Jiang Si nodded: "I'll trade you 100,000 catties of fruit."
100,000 jin?
Cinnabar's eyes widened in excitement, turning into compound eyes: "Really?"
Jiang Si shrugged: "You can choose not to believe me."
"I believe you, I believe you, I believe you! I believe everything you say!" Chensha hurriedly said, "100,000 catties of fruit, is 100 million enough for you?"
One hundred million?
Jiang Si was taken aback.
She originally wanted to ask for 188 Star Coins per pound, 100,000 pounds of Star Coins.
Seeing that she didn't agree, Chensha opened his mouth again with urgency and said, "150 million!"
Ginger shreds: "!!!!"
Why did the price increase again?
Didn't you just say that insects are poor?
Why are the prices being raised so drastically?
Insects are indeed unreliable things.
"200 million!" Chensha bid again. "200 million for 100,000 catties of fruit, is that 2,000 star coins per catty?"
Ginger shreds: "!!!!"
She meant to say the price was too high.
She didn't expect it to be so expensive.
“250 million.” Chensha gritted her teeth and said, “Miss Jiang, we’re so familiar with each other, just consider this price a friendly donation, a small profit for quick turnover.”
A fool wouldn't make money if he could.
Anyway, she won't be a bastard.
Jiang Si coughed and pretended to be reluctant: "Alright, 250 million it is. I'll just consider it a loss. After all, we know each other and are acquaintances."
Upon hearing this, Chensha breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Come on, I'll pay you a deposit of 10 million first, and I'll pay you the remaining 240 million tonight."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si brought up the payment page on her personal computer.
Chensha scanned the transaction with his personal computer and transferred 10 million.
Jiang Si looked at the payment confirmation and nodded: "Okay, I'll give you 100,000 catties of fruit whenever you pay the balance. I'm going to watch the opening ceremony performance now. See you later."
Chensha exclaimed, "Ah! You're not giving me any fruit now?"
Jiang Si turned around and said, "How about I return the 10 million to you?"
Chensha hurriedly waved her hand: "No need, no need, please, please continue on your way."
Jiang Si smirked, her gaze sharpening as she looked Chen Sha up and down. She smacked her lips and said, "Marshal Chen Sha, dragonflies are invertebrates, belonging to the class Insecta, order Odonata, and suborder Anisoptera."
"In other words, dragonflies are insects. More than 3,000 years ago on ancient Earth in the distant Milky Way, people were already using dragonflies to monitor environmental pollution."
"In ancient China, they had already discovered that dragonflies have medicinal, edible, and ornamental value. In particular, dragonfly nymphs and pupae have high nutritional value and can be consumed by humans."
"For example, the average crude protein content of red dragonfly nymphs is 58.82%, which is significantly higher than that of pork, milk and eggs. Dragonfly nymphs are rich in protein and are a good source of high-protein food."
cinnabar:"……"
What's the point of saying all this?
Why is it so unsettling for insects?
Jiang Si's smile grew wider and wider. After speaking, she paused and looked Chen Sha up and down, left and right, once again, saying, "Marshal Chen Sha, I didn't mean anything by all that. I just wanted to tell you, to let you know, that on my menu, you are my type!"
cinnabar:"!!!!"
Is he a dish?
I didn't think she was ruthless when I saw her soaking Zerg scorpions in alcohol.
Right now, just a moment ago, he felt she was incredibly ruthless. He considered her a friend, and she actually wanted to fire him.
"Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going in first." After saying that, Jiang Si waved her sleeve and left without a trace.
Chensha took a long time to recover. He took a deep breath and caught a whiff of the aura that fascinated and drove him crazy. He shuddered and exclaimed, "Truly worthy of being a top-notch planter! The aura that fascinates and drives insects crazy is so beautiful and so sweet!"
Jiang Si re-entered the venue, crouching low as she went in. She overheard someone whispering, "Oh my god, what's that on the Marshal's Adam's apple? It looks like a teeth mark. Did he have it during his opening ceremony speech?"
"I don't know, I didn't notice. Am I blind? I just saw the Marshal adjust his collar again. Was he trying to cover up the little teeth marks and the little strawberry, or did he want to show the little teeth marks and the little strawberry?"
