Chapter 393 Champa Rice
"Ding! The mission rating is perfect, and the reward points are 8 points."
"Ding! Received 1 blessing."
"Ding! Gained 470 merit points."
Gu Qingcheng's soul returned to the depths of her sea of consciousness, and what greeted her was still the cheerful virtual ball of fur and the continuous notification sounds.
"Your Majesty, it's not easy! It's really not easy!"
Huoshui's worship for her own Queen is as endless as the flowing water of a river.
"You have been doing this for decades! No matter if there is anyone around you or not, you can always persist—"
At this point, Huoshui transformed into a thumb and shook it desperately, as if only in this way could it express the admiration for Gu Qingcheng in its CPU.
The word "persistence" is easier said than done.
Gu Qingcheng has been engaged in skin care and hair care for eighty or ninety years, which has long exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.
So, when Gu Qingcheng used the plug-in given by the system to stay young forever and became the world-famous "ageless goddess" or even the "anti-aging goddess", no one questioned it.
Not to mention Liang Yihan's humanoid plug-in, Gu Qingcheng's "persistence" alone is enough to dispel everyone's doubts! Gu Qingcheng didn't say anything when she heard Huoshui's praise, but just curled the corners of her lips.
persist in?
What was this? In her previous life, in order to enrich herself, she had persisted in studying and practicing martial arts for decades. Wasn't the suffering she had endured better than lying there for maintenance?
Only if she is clear about what she wants and has a strong enough mind, can she, an ugly woman, stand at the pinnacle of power.
Oh, yes, and she is also good at hiding herself! Although she holds great power, she has never had a quarrel with her husband or a quarrel with her son.
In history, she left behind the reputation of "a virtuous queen".
So much so that a certain little fur ball mistakenly believed that she was a good person!
...Haha, without sufficient acting skills, patience and persistence, it is impossible to achieve such an achievement! Thinking of the things in the previous life, Gu Qingcheng thought of his obsession again.
She said to Huoshui, "I got eight points this time, right? As usual, I'll add them all to my appearance."
Huoshui had given up trying to persuade him and nodded obediently, "Okay!"
After some operations, Gu Qingcheng's personal attribute values were updated.
Gu Qingcheng opened the system panel: Appearance: 77 points; IQ: 96 points; Character: 57 points; Physical strength: 81;
Grid space: blessings (2), storage slots (6); merit value: 2000 points.
Gu Qingcheng's eyes swept across the various values one by one.
Her appearance has exceeded 75 points, which makes her a real beauty.
Completely free from the word "ugly".
Gu Qingcheng was in a good mood.
When her eyes passed over the storage compartment again, her eyes flickered.
Although Huoshui is a little mentally retarded, he has been with Gu Qingcheng for so long that he has become a little smarter.
It was observing its own Heavenly Queen, and noticing her eyes flickering, it couldn't help but snort, "Your Majesty, you are 'smuggling' again."
What a nice word “again”.
With Huoshui's CPU capacity, it simply couldn't understand: "I've already told you that the things you put into the storage compartment in a certain mission world can't be taken back to reality at all."
"You have tried it yourself, why don't you give up?"
When Gu Qingcheng left the small world, she secretly smuggled a few items into the grid space.
What kind of gene enhancement potion, what kind of holographic technology! What is this, Your Majesty? The thief is still thieving!
“Do you know why Laozi wrote the Tao Te Ching?”
Gu Qingcheng glanced at Huoshui indifferently and threw out a popular internet meme.
Huoshui: ...Come on! I'm not really retarded, I also surf the Internet, okay?
"I know! You are willing! Money can't buy your willingness!"
Huoshui sighed helplessly.
"Okay, let's return to this world."
Gu Qingcheng was too lazy to argue with Huoshui and gave the order directly.
The disaster is caused by obedient operation.
Gu Qingcheng's soul returned to Gu's Wu Castle in Luozhou.
Well, this base camp that she built herself.
The moment she left the system space, all of Gu Qingcheng's memories and emotions about the previous world were taken away.
Only some "common sense" is left.
However, the skills she extracted in the mission world belong to her and will not be erased.
Gu Qingcheng's brain is filled with a lot of knowledge about biology, genetics, genomics and so on.
Of course, without the blessing of the plot in the novel world, Gu Qingcheng's top-level performance would be discounted.
In addition, due to the era and environment of Gu Qingcheng's world, there is basically not much room for her to display her biological skills.
After all, a person's power is limited. Without professional experimental equipment, experimental consumables and other supplies, she cannot cultivate cloned sheep by herself.
"…Not necessarily! It is still somewhat useful! And it is very useful!"
Gu Qingcheng roughly filtered the vast amount of knowledge in his brain and came up with an idea.
Gu's Wu Castle developed very well with the management of Gu Qingcheng and the support of Gu Yi who was far away in the Northern Dynasty.
It is called "Wu Castle", which sounds like a manor, but in fact it is not much different from a city.
When the governor of Luozhou was invited to be a guest, he was a little absent-minded when he stood outside the high city wall.
"Is this Wubao?"
It is even more magnificent and solid than the capital of Luozhou.
The city wall is two or three meters high, and there is a wide and deep moat outside the wall.
There were four city gates, each guarded by soldiers wearing helmets and armor.
On the city walls, there were teams of soldiers patrolling.
Looking at the "Wu Fort" with its high walls and deep moats, the governor of Luozhou had no doubt at all that it might not be able to be breached even if the government sent troops to attack, let alone bandits and rioters.
After entering the city gate, the governor of Luozhou discovered that there was something else going on in the city.
The small Gu's Wu Castle actually has an inner city and an outer city.
The city wall he saw was just the outermost line of defense.
There are farmlands and villages outside the city, and young men train during the slack season.
The governor of Luozhou believed that as long as there was a "war", these "farm slaves" who went to the fields to farm could put on armor and fight.
Moreover, with these farmlands, Wubao can be self-sufficient.
I guess it won't be a problem if we're besieged by the enemy for a year or two.
Cross the farmland and arrive at the inner city.
The Luozhou governor's eyes lit up again.
Compared with the "pastoral style" of the outer city, the inner city truly looks like a city.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The streets are wide, clean and tidy.
Rows of houses are exquisite and solid.
On the central axis are the Gu family’s houses. The entire building complex looks like a miniature version of the palace.
When he walked onto the street, the governor of Luozhou discovered that the ground was actually paved with bluestone or rammed earth.
It seemed that someone swept the streets every day, and there was no cow dung, horse dung or other dirty things on the streets.
There is also a ditch next to the street, which is used for drainage.
Given the rainy climate in Lingnan, even in the summer, a hurricane or heavy rain would not flood the entire Wubao! The Luozhou governor also discovered that the people living in the Gu family's Wubao were not only the Gu family, their followers, and guest girls, but also some nearby villagers and even military households.
If he had not known that this was a private Wu Castle, the Luozhou Governor would have had the illusion that he was in the provincial capital just by looking at the various people coming and going on the streets.
No! That's not right!
Not the state capital!
His Luozhou Prefecture didn't seem to be so prosperous! "Gu family! Have great ambitions!"
The governor of Luozhou is not a fool.
After being invited to the Gu family for a "one-day trip to Wu Castle", he understood Gu Heng's intention.
The Gu family has big plans.
Perhaps even Luozhou alone is not enough.
According to the development trend of the Gu family, the governor of Luozhou believes that within a few years, most of or even the entire Lingnan will fall into the hands of the Gu family!
"As expected of the world-famous Lord You'an!"
Until this time, the governor of Luozhou mistakenly believed that the person who had done all this was Gu Heng.
Gu Qingcheng curled her lips helplessly:...There's no way, I'm too young, still a little girl!
Age + gender, a fatal flaw.
Fortunately, she has the best relatives in the world.
Her family supports her ambition and career!
"Ah Weng, what did the governor say?"
Gu Qingcheng returned to this world and after a little adjustment, she completely adapted.
She remembered the distinguished guests that Gu's Wu Castle had invited before she started the mission, so she ran to ask Gu Heng.
"He's a smart guy!"
Gu Heng sat cross-legged on a cushion, leaning against a table, holding a feather fan in his hand.
"Smart people"? That's good! Gu Qingcheng was most afraid of meeting stupid people.
When smart people deal with each other, they don't need to explain too clearly, everyone will understand.
Since he is a smart man, the Luozhou Governor should be able to make the most appropriate choice.
Gu Qingcheng raised her head, her eyes burning.
The little girl, who is less than ten years old, is like a shining pearl, beautiful and dazzling.
Gu Heng: ...Huh? Am I dazzled?
Aqing seems to have become more beautiful.
Maybe it’s the Feng Shui of Lingnan that really suits Aqing’s horoscope.
Not only did it help the little girl grow up, but it also gave her the space and opportunity to display her abilities.
"He's not only smart, he's ambitious too!"
Gu Heng waved a feather fan to drive away the mosquitoes around him.
Alas, Lingnan is good in every way except that there are too many snakes, insects, rats and ants, and they are too big.
Even with incense burning, there will always be some fish that slip through the net.
Moreover, the mosquitoes here are quite poisonous. One bite will leave a bump.
So, Gu Heng always carries a feather fan with him, not to show off, but to drive away mosquitoes and flies.
"More than that! Our Gu family also gave him a lot of money."
Gu Qingcheng knew these officials too well.
On the surface, they seem as noble as the bright moon in the sky, but in fact, they are all greedy for money and power.
Gu Qingcheng invented the salt-drying method, and Luozhou’s long coastline is simply an inexhaustible gold mine!
If the Gu family wants to gain the support of the Luozhou governor, they will naturally share some of the benefits with him.
The salt fields alone are enough to feed the Luozhou governor.
From now on, the Luozhou governor will no longer "turn a blind eye" but will support the Gu family's expansion to the greatest extent possible! "Aung, I want to take over this place!"
Gu Qingcheng took out a map, pointed to the location of "Jiaozhou", and said firmly.
"Jiaozhou?" Ancient Jiaozhi? What good things could there be here?
Gu Qingcheng nodded, "Yes! It's Jiaozhou!"
Although this place is more remote and primitive, there is a species here that can be called a cheat - Champa rice!
