Chapter 131 Ling Ran's Selfless Dedication
Pan Shaogang looked at the supplies in the living room, his eyes filled with excitement.
Compared to what he gave away, he definitely made a huge profit.
Moreover, he didn't expect Ling Ran to reciprocate the gift at first. He was genuinely grateful to Ling Ran, but he was just a little reluctant to part with it.
"My lord, this..."
Pan Shaogang's way of addressing him changed instantly: "I won't stand on ceremony then."
He really couldn't refuse this.
"Take it."
Ling Ran said this nonchalantly.
Having robbed two gas stations, she now has plenty of gas in her storage space, enough for her own use, and she doesn't know when she'll run out.
Pan Shaogang gave Wei Xing a wink, and the latter quickly put these things into his spatial storage.
"Sir," Pan Shaogang said, feeling a little embarrassed after accepting the gift, "Is there anything else you want? Our base will do its best to provide it!"
Ling Ran doesn't really need it; the pigs and cows should be enough for them to eat until the next base.
"No need, I have all of those."
Upon hearing this, Pan Shaogang looked at Ling Ran with even greater admiration.
Look at this adult! What a magnanimous spirit and broad-mindedness! This spirit of selfless dedication and not seeking anything in return is something everyone should learn from!
"The lord mentioned inspecting our G City base earlier. Is there any intention to stay here?" Even though he already knew the outcome, Pan Shaogang couldn't help but ask.
"No, I'll stay for two more days and then leave."
"Okay, fine."
Pan Shaogang was somewhat disappointed, but he also knew that someone like the adult would definitely not stay in a small base like theirs.
After exchanging pleasantries, Pan Shaogang and the other two left, not forgetting to ask Ling Ran when she would be leaving the base so they could come and see her off.
After they left, Ling Ran sat on the sofa, ready to start today's voice-selection competition: "Who wants to go first?"
Everyone looked at each other, and no one wanted to go first.
Liu Xiuping was the first to raise her hand: "Sir, I'll go first."
"Okay, then you can begin."
Liu Xiuping walked up to Ling Ran, holding her tablet, and took a deep breath. Even though she knew she was just there to make up the numbers, she was still very nervous being watched by so many people.
"It was midsummer, the midday sun was blazing, and the cicadas were chirping incessantly..."
She read two paragraphs before Ling Ran raised her hand to interrupt her: "That's it, it's not good enough."
Liu Xiuping sighed.
She thought she had managed to complete three stages.
However, she had already anticipated this result. Her voice was not pleasant, her Mandarin was not particularly standard, and she read without emotion, so it was normal for her to be rejected.
"Who's next?"
"I'll do it."
It was Uncle Chen who spoke; he was just there to join in the fun. Unsurprisingly, he was passed over by Ling Ran after reading a passage.
The problem is that his Mandarin has an accent. It's fine when he speaks normally, but if you use it to read aloud, it's very difficult to listen to.
Then, Fan Chuan, Hu Meiying, and even Uncle Chen's daughter Chen Xiaoying joined in the fun, and unsurprisingly, they were all passed over.
Then Pei Yi, Pei Xiu, Chen Le and the others all began to try.
Not to mention these people, their Mandarin was standard, they read with some emotion, and most importantly, their voices were all good, so Ling Ran listened to three segments of each of them.
"Who else?"
Gu Zijing came out carrying a tablet: "My lord, I haven't read it yet."
"Okay, begin your performance."
Before this event, Ling Ran already had her top contenders in mind: Pei Yi, Su Yimo, Shen Nianshen, and Gu Zijing.
Pei Yi's voice sounds mature and steady, somewhat like an older man's voice. Su Yimo's voice is a sweet and pleasant young girl's voice. As for Shen Nianshen, it's a gentle and warm man's voice, while Gu Zijin's voice is that of a restrained young man.
However, a pleasant voice doesn't necessarily mean someone will be good at reading novels. For example, Shen Nianshen's reading was terrible, making Ling Ran drowsy.
