Chapter 49 There is more than one



After Jian Luo replied to the Marshal's message, he didn't read it again.

Originally, he thought that growing peppers was not a difficult task. After all, when he was in the greenhouse before, he didn't waste any time to grow peppers, and they grew very well. But once the environment changed here, everything changed, and problems followed.

"Brother Jian, the temperature here is a little off."

"Brother, I think I didn't control the water well here and poured too much."

“Are the seeds of this pepper bad?”

All sorts of problems made his head hurt. He had felt that everything was very easy when he was working alone before, but when it came to teamwork, Jian Luo realized that doing something well was not something that he could do alone. The most difficult thing was to lead an entire team.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of Lu Shifeng. How on earth did the Marshal manage to manage an army without any chaos, and even have the leisure to chat with him and stroll around?

Does this person have three heads and six arms?

It seems that I should go back and ask more questions when I have time.

Jian Luo was thinking about something, and her hands and feet were not idle either. Just as she was about to leave, Jiang Kang beside her said, "Luoluo, you must be tired. Drink some water."

As he spoke, Jiang Kang handed the water in his hand to Jian Luo.

Jian Luo took the water: "Thank you."

"Nothing," Jiang Kang said to him. "Look, I planted all the seeds in this row. I followed your instructions exactly. If there are no problems, I'll go help them plant. At least we can complete the goal we set for today."

Jian Luo squatted down to check and found that Jiang Kang was really capable and very good at cultivation. He was the kind of person who could understand things at a glance.

Jiang Kang said: "When I was studying abroad on another planet, I also learned a lot of alien planting techniques. When I came back, I wanted to help us humans become more innovative and break free from our constraints."

This was the first time that Jian Luo heard about studying abroad on an alien planet. He had been staying on the Dark Star since he came here and had no chance to go outside.

Talking about this topic, Jian Luo couldn't help but be interested: "What is the difference between an alien planet and a dark star?"

Jiang Kang had very fair skin, and his smile was indeed very gentle. "I feel like the Dark Star people would have advanced technology, with the planet's air quality and per capita happiness being much higher. But alien planets would be a bit more chaotic. Some planets focus on industry, so the entire planet is made of steel and concrete. Some planets focus on water resources, so half the planet is covered in ocean..."

Jian Luo was stunned when he heard this.

"Dark Star is still the most suitable place for human habitation." Jiang Kang's eyes swept over Jian Luo's wrist: "Luoluo, where is the bracelet I gave you before? Why did you change it?"

Jian Luo frowned: "Did you give me that bracelet?"

Jiang Kang sighed, "It seems you really forgot. That was my birthday present for you. I saved up money for a long time to buy it for you. You even said you would wear it for the rest of your life."

“…”

Thanks.

I really can't wear that short-circuited bracelet forever.

Jian Luo thought about it and decided to express his gratitude: "Um, thank you. How much is the bracelet? I'll transfer it to you."

Jiang Kang looked at the bracelet on Jian Luo's hand and said, "Luoluo, I don't care about money. I care about you."

Jian Luo was so annoyed: "I said I've forgotten it, don't say such things again in the future, otherwise I will have to replace someone else, do you understand?"

This is already a bit implicit.

But it was also true that Jian Luo was indeed the one who had the final say in this entire shed.

Jiang Kang's expression changed. "Alright, Luoluo, I won't irritate you. I know you're not feeling well right now. I'll go teach them how to plant. Don't be angry anymore. Drink more hot water."

Jian Luo walked out: "I'm going out to get some fresh air, you guys go ahead and get busy."

Seeing Jian Luo leave, a girl walked up to Jiang Kang and asked curiously, "Brother Jiang, I saw that bracelet that Brother Jian has. It's really expensive. It's a limited edition Obsidian. I remember the regular version was priced at 500,000 yuan on the official website, and the limited edition was 800,000 yuan or more."

Their average monthly salary is only a few thousand yuan, and something like this, worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, may be what a family can earn in their entire lifetime.

Jiang Kang retracted his gaze: "Luoluo's family is not well off, so it's inevitable that he will be laughed at by others. He has finally achieved his current status through hard work, so it's inevitable that he wants to use some good things. Don't poke at his scars anymore."

The girl closed her mouth and said slowly, "Brother Jiang, are you saying that Luo Luo's bracelet is a fake?"

Jiang Kang pursed his lips, as if he couldn't bear it: "Don't say it."

"I didn't expect Luoluo to care so much about face." The girl sighed: "Brother Jiang, you are really too kind."

Jiang Kang smiled and said, "I'm Luo Luo's brother, so it's natural for me to take care of him."

In just a few days, most people in the shed were convinced of Jiang Kang. Jian Luo had very high requirements for various processes and seedlings, so many people were a little afraid of him. But Jiang Kang was different. He was gentle and caring. In comparison, Jian Luo, who had very high requirements, naturally had a taller image.

The girl admired him very much: "Brother Jiang, I think with your ability, you can also go to Phoenix Terrace to cultivate seedlings. Jian Luo is just lucky. I heard that he got this opportunity by relying on unspoken rules."

Jiang Kang frowned: "What?"

On the other side, the Imperial Garden.

Lu Shifeng sat on a stone chair, with two little maids standing trembling in front of him. The Marshal had not spoken a word since the beginning, as if he was silently crushing the maids psychologically.

After a while.

One of the maids finally couldn't help herself and burst into tears: "Marshal, we know we are wrong. We shouldn't gossip and slack off during work hours. Please forgive us."

Another one quickly echoed, "Sir, please calm down. We really won't dare to do that again."

Lu Shifeng, who was sitting on the chair, was wearing a neat military uniform. The dark blue uniform was dark in color. His hands, which were placed on the table, were slender and white. He tapped the table from time to time, as if tapping on people's hearts. There was hot tea on the stone table, but the Marshal did not touch a sip.

The maids were so nervous that sweat broke out on their backs.

They were all wondering what they had done wrong that made the Marshal, whose time was precious, condescend to summon them, the two minions.

After a while.

The Marshal opened his lips slightly and said, "Your lover is cheating on you?"

There was a moment of dead silence in the air.

The maid who was named was stunned. She looked up subconsciously and met the Marshal's calm eyes, which made her heart tremble.

Lu Shifeng frowned: "I'm asking you a question."

The maid quickly said, "Yes, yes."

"Hmm." The Marshal pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "How did you find out?"

? ?

Question marks slowly appeared above the maid's head. Looking at Lu Shifeng's handsome face, she couldn't help but wonder why the Marshal would suddenly pay attention to the feelings of a little maid like her? Could it be that he had caught a glimpse of her and had some thoughts about her, and just happened to find out that his partner was cheating, so he came to inquire?

But……

Didn’t I hear that the marshal’s lover was also kept in the palace?

By the way, it seems that she has moved away. Maybe they broke up. So, is it possible that I will become the Marshal’s new favorite?

Thinking of this, the maid happily replied: "My boyfriend and I were attracted by his character. Although he is not very outstanding, he is very motivated and takes good care of me."

Lu Shifeng asked: "And then?"

"Who knew he, who looked so honest, would actually cheat on her!" The maid gritted her teeth at the thought: "Everything was fine between him and me, but who knew he was suddenly transferred to work somewhere else, and everything changed."

“…”

Transferred to work elsewhere.

Lu Shifeng played with the teacup in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Explain it clearly."

Although the Marshal didn't scold anyone, he exuded an air of authority that was barely audible. The girl was startled and quickly said, "He actually ran into his old lover in that unit, and they rekindled their old feelings and started having an affair."

Lu Shifeng's brows relaxed.

From what he knew, Jian Luo was just a student before. How could he have such a thing as an old lover? And even more so, rekindling old feelings was out of the question. Thinking of this, the Marshal felt relieved and waved his hand: "Go down."

The little girl looked hesitant, but she didn't dare to say anything, so she just bowed and said, "Yes."

Just as the Marshal was feeling relieved, he received a message on his information terminal. It was from Jian Luo, who had not replied to his message until now:

[It's a critical time for sowing right now, and they're not familiar with it, so I have to work a little overtime to keep an eye on it. I'll go home and sleep at night. It's close, so don't worry, everything will be fine.]

Lu Shifeng was in a good mood and didn't make things difficult for himself: "Well, I'll ask Secretary Jin to pick out a box of holy dragon fruit and send it to you."

Jian Luo was happy: "Okay, actually I'm not particularly busy. There's someone I knew before who's pretty qualified and can help me guide others, so I can relax a little."

Know each other before?

Lu Shifeng's smile gradually disappeared, and he couldn't help but think of the old lover that the maid had mentioned before. As a result, the temperature in the pavilion, which had originally had a somewhat relaxed atmosphere, gradually dropped again.

The little emperor, who had just returned from his work, was very excited: "Uncle..."

Lu Shifeng raised his eyelids and looked at him, his tone kind: "Is your Majesty's business done?"

The little emperor felt a chill on his back.

Oh no.

Is there going to be another war in some galaxy? Oh my god, that's so unfortunate, it just happened to happen when the Dragon King wanted to be home with his wife. Isn't that just waiting for three seconds?!

Jane stayed in the planting base until night.

There was a light rain in the sky and the night sky was foggy. He was caught up as soon as he walked out.

Jiang Kang said, "Luoluo, where is your aunt? I'll take you both back."

"No need." Jian Luo smiled: "My mother should come to pick me up. Thank you for your kindness. I'll leave first."

Jiang Kang was stunned. "Auntie got fired? Then you're the only one earning money in your family?"

Jian Luo frowned slightly and was about to speak when a voice came from not far away: "Luoluo!"

Su Liang was standing there holding an umbrella. When he saw Jian Luo, he hurried over and gave him the rain shelter ring in his hand. When you buckle this ring on your body, you don't need to hold an umbrella, and the surrounding rain will be automatically sheltered. It also has the function of automatic windproofing. An ordinary family certainly can't afford it. Originally, Su Liang didn't want to show off, but Jian Luo is pregnant now, and health is definitely the most important thing. If he catches a cold from the wind, the consequences will be disastrous.

Jian Luo said, "Mom, let's go back."

Su Liang glanced at Jiang Kang, smiled awkwardly, and took Jian Luo back.

If someone in a crowd of people holding umbrellas has a rain shelter ring, he or she will be very eye-catching, and many people will look at him or her with envy.

"Is that Luoluo?"

"It seems that he is really the eldest son of the Jian family."

"I heard he's here to be an instructor, a high-ranking official."

"Oh my god, how did you become one?"

"Don't you know? I heard that he..."

All kinds of rumors were heard everywhere, and Jian Luo could guess what they were talking about without even listening. Su Liang was a little angry and wanted to go over and argue.

Jian Luo held her back, unable to bear it any longer: "Mom, I'm so hungry, can we go home and eat first?"

Su Liang tried to hold back his laughter, but couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You."

Jian Luo really felt that it was unnecessary. He couldn't go and explain to everyone one by one. He wouldn't be here long anyway, so there was no need.

When I got home, there was indeed food on the table.

Jian Luo's mouth was watering: "There are chili peppers? Why is it spicy?"

Su Liang put away his umbrella and said, "Secretary Jin sent it. She said that the people over at Phoenix Terrace sent a batch of chili peppers that were left over from that time. The Marshal asked them to bring them all to you."

Jian Luo's eyes sparkled: "I love spicy food."

He rushed to the dining table, picked up the rice and a piece of spicy tofu, and ate it. Jian Luo sighed: "It's so delicious, Mom, did you watch my live broadcast?"

Su Liang responded: "You must like what you make. Mom learned from me when she had nothing to do at home. I didn't practice before. I'm not sure if I made tofu this time. You can try it."

Jian Luo nodded: "Success, especially success!"

Su Liang smiled, walked to the table and sat down, watching Jian Luo eat, and sighed a little: "Before, I thought you might suffer if you followed the Marshal. After all, our identity as Earthlings is easy to be criticized wherever we go. But now that I see that the Marshal cares so much about you, I feel relieved."

Jian Luo stuffed rice into his mouth: "The Marshal is fine."

"Then..." Su Liang looked at Jian Luo cautiously and asked tentatively: "Then Luo Luo, do you like the Marshal?"

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Jian Luo, who was trying hard to stuff rice into his mouth, stopped. He looked at Su Liang and smiled: "Mom, what are you talking about?"

Su Liang withdrew his gaze, a little worried: "Have you discussed this with the Marshal? Has he told you?"

"We've discussed it." Jian Luo poked into the bowl with his chopsticks. "We've agreed that after the baby is born, I'll definitely return to my own life. The dragon cub is their world's hope, right? There will definitely be many people who will take good care of it. I won't have to worry about it."

Jian Luo spoke lightly, but inexplicably, Su Liang heard a hint of sadness in his words.

“Luoluo…”

Jian Luo interrupted her: "Mom, don't worry, I know what's going on."

Su Liang finally felt relieved. The birth of this child was too sudden, and it seemed unreal to him most of the time. After the ecstasy, he calmed down and felt that it might not be a very good thing. Some things are destined not to be enjoyed, and some people are destined not to be together.

After dinner, Jian Luo decided to live broadcast.

It had been a long time since he had done a live broadcast, so he decided to do one and took out the big round ball of the live broadcast equipment and adjusted it.

"Hi, everyone." Jian Luo said to Yuanqiu, "We're here to eat spicy noodles today. They're a kind of snack, so those who can't eat spicy food should be careful."

In the past, even if there were a lot of people, it wouldn't be crowded immediately, but this time, people in the live broadcast room rushed in like crazy:

"Anchor, is there something wrong with your potato chips?"

"Yes, I gave it to my brother. He said he felt dizzy."

"Can you explain this, host?"

"Is your food edible?"

The usually harmonious comments in the live broadcast room suddenly became chaotic, and Jian Luo really didn't expect it to be like this.

Jian Luo frowned: "I don't remember selling physical potato chips. I've always bought them based on taste."

"Mr. Chen Guang made potato chips just like you did."

"Are you afraid to sell physical items?"

"If it's not edible, are your other dishes still edible?"

The barrage was filled with chaos and all kinds of doubts, which came so quickly that people could hardly cope with it.

Jian Luo tried his best to suppress his emotions: "Potatoes can be good or bad. If they are bad potatoes, the potato chips made from them will definitely be problematic. Can everyone please calm down?"

The audience didn't listen at all:

"All the potato chips Chen Guang Ye broadcasts live are good."

"Yes, and there aren't so many bad potatoes on the market."

"Anchor, can you speak with conscience?"

Jian Luo's heart sank, but the more this situation became, the calmer he became. He ignored some people's arguments and instead had an idea: "Where does everyone buy it? I'll buy some to try too."

Yes, why not just send it for testing when the time comes?

Why didn’t I think of it before!

These audiences are really clever, they gave him endless inspiration!

The audience was also quite speechless, and gave Jian Luo directions: "It's the homepage of Mr. Chen Guang on the Star Live Network."

Jian Luo followed the audience's instructions and found Chen Guangye's shelf. Just when he was about to place an order, the potato chips were taken off the shelf almost at the same time.

It's unbelievable.

The audience also saw this scene:

“Why was it taken off the shelves?”

"Did you discuss this with the anchor? He pretended to buy something, but actually wanted to remove it from the shelves."

"You guys are in the same group, right?"

Jian Luo was also dumbfounded, but seeing the malicious comments made him laugh even more: "Why should I team up with him? I was the one who posted the potato chips first. Even if I really wanted to sell them, couldn't I just do it myself? Why would I team up with others?"

The audience was speechless for a moment.

Jian Luo leaned against the kitchen stove. "There's a problem with the potato chips. I'll help investigate. I welcome your supervision. I'll also work hard to create more delicious food for you. But if you're just making random accusations against me, I accept criticism and suggestions. If you're causing trouble, please leave my studio."

The speech was mixed, but it was a bit of a warning and a sweet reward.

Some people in the barrage also recalled it:

"I heard that Yuese also sells potato chips."

"Yeah, if Yue Se dared to do it, it shouldn't look like there's a problem."

"It wasn't the anchor who sold it, why are you all scolding him?"

Once someone discovers the blind spot, many problems will be exposed. These verbal attacks against Jian Luo are like an organized and disciplined water army.

Sure enough, before the rational audience could say a few words, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room quickly became chaotic again. Many people began to irrationally continue to vent their anger. All kinds of demons were rampant in the live broadcast room, which made people's scalps numb. More people found fault with everything:

"The Moonlight approach must be different."

"Can someone of the anchor's level compare with the chef of Moonlight?"

"Humans are such low life, they can't do anything good."

Everything else was fine, but after seeing these two comments, Jian Luo was furious. He took a deep breath and was about to speak when he saw a flash of light in the live broadcast room:

[Users will receive 8888 deep-water torpedoes as a gift]

The light from the deep-water torpedo covered the entire screen. No matter how hard those argumentative people tried, their words could not be seen on the entire page.

Jian Luo was also stunned.

After the light faded, one viewer questioned, "Could it be that the streamer hired someone to do this? Who would spend so much money to watch a live stream of a human being?"

The words fell.

[User bonus: 88,888 deep-water torpedoes]

The brilliant mines filled the screen again in an instant. Even the entire Jinjiang homepage was flooded with mines from Jian Luo's live broadcast room, which also made others stunned.

The people who were just making malicious speculations were stunned and completely dumbfounded. If it was just a one-time thing, it could be said that Jian Luo invited him himself, but the key point was that it happened again, and it was so generous. It was really shocking enough. After all, the two times added up to at least four or five hundred thousand. Even ordinary Dark Star people would find it difficult to be so generous.

Finally someone was convinced:

"Good, really rich."

"Sugar daddy 666"

"I've learned a lot."

The Marshal who cast the thunder was also very satisfied. After returning, the Marshal thought about it seriously and finally came to the realization that Jian Luo would never cheat. After all, someone with his conditions was one in a million. After all, Jian Luo had personally praised him for being handsome. Besides, as a partner, how many people could be as generous as him?

To sum up, the Marshal believes that he is basically unbeatable and can rest easy. After all, the conditions are here. As long as Jian Luo is sane, he will not look down on others.

Just thinking about the sudden bustle in the live broadcast room:

[User Bu Yan gave away 99,999 deep-water torpedoes: Roses bloom in September, mines are for you.]

The screen hasn't fallen yet:

[After the live stream, remember to take the online course and receive 99,999 deep-water torpedoes: Don't let it affect your studies.]

The two waves of mines were very subtly more numerous than those of the Marshal, and their attitude was outrageous, stepping on the mines of the Marshal's precarious self-confidence like crazy, dancing in the minefield.

Lu Shifeng narrowed his eyes and began to think after being influenced by the palace maid. Could it be that Jian Luo actually has more than one colleague like this?
