Chapter 119: No Work in Vain
Even my tongue, which has tasted all the natural delicacies in the empire, has been completely impressed by Jian Yan's cooking skills, let alone others?
Lu Jinxiu had reason to believe that no one could resist the food attack and temptation from Jian Yan, which appealed to people of all ages!
Therefore, his soldiers could understand these two points.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, and waiting for the equally satisfied soldiers to leave in groups of two or three, Lu Jinxiu finally got down to business with Jian Yan.
“Yanyan!”
"Um?"
Jian Yan was cleaning the fur of Rabbit Dad. This was a big rabbit that didn't care about its image at all when eating. There were oil stains all over its snow-white fur, which was a bit difficult to wipe off.
"What's up?"
Lu Jinxiu nodded, "We are planning to promote the Zerg, and we hope you can help us."
Jian Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Lu Jinxiu, "How can I help?"
"Have you any money?"
Before Lu Jinxiu could answer, Rabbit Dad shouted anxiously, "My child won't work for nothing. You can ask her to help, but she needs to be paid."
"It's natural."
Lu Jinxiu put his hands in his pockets and smiled casually at Big Rabbit. Then he looked at Jian Yan again and said in a gentle tone, "How about we go to the research lab for a four-party meeting?"
"good."
Jian Yan used his fingers to smooth down Rabbit Daddy's tangled fur, then pulled him up and walked towards Lu Jinxiu, asking, "Which four parties are the four-party talks?"
Lu Jinxiu smiled and said, "You, the Zerg Research Center, the Imperial Intellectual Property Office, and the Imperial Minister of Finance."
In short, “···”
Jian Yan suddenly felt weak in her heart and legs. In the four-party talks, except for her who was a complete layman, the other three parties were more powerful than the other.
It feels like a bone is about to be gnawed.
"Can I, can I refuse?" She wiped the sweat from her forehead and asked softly.
Lu Jinxiu paused, turned around, looked at her, and shook his head.
"I, to be honest, I feel a little weak." Jian Yan muttered to himself, "It's okay to force a sale, don't you know?"
Lu Jinxiu raised his hand to his nose, as if unable to suppress a smile. His eyes fixed on her, he said slowly, "Don't worry, I won't force you to buy or sell. You have my expeditionary force as your backing. To round it off, you can say that the military is standing behind you. Does that make you feel more at ease?"
Jian Yan widened her eyes in surprise, her gaze fixed on his face. She swallowed and wanted to ask him why he helped her so much, but she didn't say it in the face of his smiling gaze.
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere fell into silence for a moment. However, in this silence, it seemed as if something repressed and confusing was quietly growing and spreading.
Rabbit Dad felt something strange and patted Jian Yan's arm with his furry paw, "Baby..."
Jian Yan suddenly came back to her senses. She pursed her lips, patted Rabbit Dad's paws soothingly, then looked up at Lu Jinxiu and said, "Thank you!"
"You are welcome!"
Lu Jinxiu smiled softly, "I'm not doing this for you. The Zerg are a major concern for the Empire, and they are also a major concern for all civilizations and races in the Xuanyun Galaxy.
And you are the only one who can deal with the Zerg without bloodshed and make good use of it.
I have to protect you."
Jian Yan bit his lip, looked at her again, and continued to walk out with Rabbit Dad.
Lu Jinxiu followed lazily and walked beside her.
At this time, it was already dark, and all the street lights and spotlights in the base were turned on, illuminating the base, making it as bright as day.
