Chapter 162 People Under the Sky City 24
The next morning, after Lian Boyuan and Luo Ming'er got up, they were taken to the restaurant and saw Zhang Xiaojia chatting with a little kid.
Zhang Xiaojia saw the two of them and asked gently, "Are you used to living here? The air here is a little worse than in the Sky City. If you feel uncomfortable, please tell me."
Luo Ming'er smiled and said, "Thank you. The air here is surprisingly no worse than that in the Sky City."
Zhang Xiaojia smiled broadly. Of course, she uses the cleaning spell every day.
No worse than the city in the sky~
Zhang Xiaojia said softly, "Let's have breakfast together. I don't know what flavors you like. Let's just make do with it today. Tell Uncle Qin what you want to eat tomorrow."
Zhang Chengxi was envious and said in a baby voice, "Master, why don't you ask me what I like? Why don't you let me order?"
Zhang Xiaojia took the steamed bun and put it in his bowl, saying coldly, "They are guests, and you are my child laborer. There is a fundamental difference. Do you understand?"
Zhang Chengxi shook his head and said, "I don't understand, but I understand I can't order food. Never mind, the food here is delicious."
Lian Boyuan looked at the breakfast, which turned out to be his favorite wontons and dumplings. He started eating with big mouthfuls, his eyes lighting up. They were so delicious, the meat was fresh and tender, without a trace of impurities.
Zhang Xiaojia knew the size of a grown man's meal, so she pushed her own dumplings in front of him and said, "There are more here, eat slowly."
Lian Boyuan didn't know how to face her, so he could only eat the dumplings in silence.
Zhang Xiaojia continued, "I'll leave Team Lin Yi and a group of robots to protect you. You can tell Team Lin where you want to go."
Lian Boyuan recovered, a smile on his face, and said, "Sorry to bother Master Zhang."
Zhang Xiaojia frowned and said, "Here, you don't have to smile if you don't want to. No one dares to look at you coldly. Just be yourself. I'm going to the company first."
Zhang Xiaojia thought for a moment, took out a card, and said, "The money on Earth is different from the money in the Sky City. Use this card and you're welcome to talk to me."
Zhang Xiaojia patted Lian Boyuan on the shoulder and said, "It's fun."
Zhang Chengxi also stood up and wanted to pat his shoulder, but he was too short. He could only pat Lian Boyuan's thigh and imitate Zhang Xiaojia's words, "It's fun."
He quickly ran and said, "Master, wait a minute."
Lian Boyuan looked at the card on the table, picked it up and put it in his pocket.
Luo Minger quickly said, "Boyuan, where are we going?"
Lian Boyuan said, "Let's just take a look today."
Zhang Xiaojia and Zhang Chengxi had just arrived at the office when Zhang Qirui came in.
Zhang Qirui led his son out of the office and said to He Lin, "Secretary He, please take a look at this kid."
He immediately returned to his office, locked the door tightly, looked at Zhang Xiaojia sternly, and asked, "Whose son is Lian Boyuan?"
Zhang Xiaojia smiled and said, "Zhang's family. How did you know?"
Zhang Qirui said coldly, "Lian Jingyu couldn't sleep with Su Mei. He couldn't get hard with women. Su Mei was still a member of the Zhang family at that time. I met her, but she wasn't pregnant then. I have deleted all the information about Su Mei from that time."
Zhang Qirui continued, "Master, why do you suddenly want to recognize Lian Boyuan? Are you planning to give him the position of Master of the Zhang Family? You'd better not even think about it. He's not qualified for this position yet."
Zhang Xiaojia sighed and said, "Don't worry, he doesn't have the ability now. We'll talk about it later." Zhang Xiaojia told him about the Wang family and her transaction with Zhiao, but she concealed the matter of the meteorite.
Zhang Qirui thought for a moment and said, "It's better to leave. As long as there's no chaos, we can take our time. The Zhang family can take this opportunity to expand."
Zhang Xiaojia talked with him about the construction of Area B for the whole morning before Zhang Qirui left.
After receiving a call from the Agricultural Bureau, Zhang Xiaojia learned that there were not enough vegetables this year. He thought about it, smiled, and directly sent a message to Lu Jing, asking him to come to the office.
The people of this land have lived for so long, how could they possibly have forgotten their skills? This is a gift we were born with! Who are we? We are natural farmers! No vegetables to eat? That's no problem! Why not just start a small vegetable garden at home?
Lu Jing ran over happily, his face filled with excitement, and shouted, "Sister! Have you helped me get a medical cabin so I can use it for experiments?"
Zhang Xiaojia smiled and replied, "Wait half a year. But starting today, you have to set aside an hour every day to do a live broadcast to teach everyone how to grow vegetables hydroponically, the kind that can be harvested in ten days to half a month."
Lu Jing's face was filled with reluctance, and he felt a surge of resentment. He was a distinguished postdoc! And now he was being asked to teach people how to grow vegetables? This was a complete insult and a waste of his expertise! His research covered advanced topics like how plants survive in harsh environments, successful cultivation methods, and soil improvement—not just simple vegetable growing techniques.
He was so naive. The last time he was called in, it was to ask him to develop non-polluting nutrients. The time before that, it was to ask him to develop fast-growing crops. The time before that, it was to order him to completely switch from land farming to hydroponic farming...
Zhang Xiaojia took a look and immediately knew what this kid was thinking.
She twirled the pen in her hand and said, "Do you want a Feijia car? There's none on Earth right now. I'll give you one. You can take your men and drive freely in the sky. It's so fast that you can cover the entire lightly polluted area in a day, instead of having to drive for several days."
Lu Jing said suspiciously, "Sister! I won't be caught by the law enforcement team if I drive fast, right?"
Seeing Zhang Xiaojia shook his head, he said, "Okay, I will spend an hour every day teaching you how to grow vegetables through live streaming."
Zhang Xiaojia said slowly, "Regarding vegetable cultivation, I have a few key points to make. First, for those who are trying hydroponic cultivation for the first time, the water quality must be up to standard. If it is carried out in full accordance with the standards of the Ministry of Agriculture, the cost may be unaffordable for the average family. Therefore, you need to find the most economical and suitable method for family cultivation.
Secondly, good quality vegetable varieties are also very important. You can start with five or six varieties, not too many, but you must ensure quality and speed, so that the vegetables can be eaten in about ten days and a half.
Third, and most importantly, your explanations must be simple and understandable, so that even a complete novice in agriculture can easily learn.
Lu Jing muttered quietly, "That's a lot to ask for."
Zhang Xiaojia said calmly, "Is there any problem?"
Lu Jing cursed in his heart, "You're so talkative, we have to do all the work, and you listed three points, each of which is difficult!" But he didn't dare say that, because she would really hit him. A creature like my sister is still not to be messed with~~
He immediately patted his chest and said, "Sister, no problem. I'll prepare in the next two days and learn how to live broadcast. I'll show you the results in three days."
Zhang Xiaojia gave him a flying RV and let him go.
Zhang Xiaojia thought for a moment. She had been here for so long, but she hadn't eaten any fruit. It seemed she hadn't seen anything other than apples. Back in the Sky City, Uncle Qin bought her some every day.
I looked it up online and my first reaction was, great, there’s still a lot of fruit!
Apples, pears, peaches, tomatoes, bananas, lychees, and her favorite summertime watermelon, which she eats with a spoon! And oranges, which she eats in bed in the winter.
Zhang Xiaojia complained in his heart that tomatoes are not fruits but vegetables...
The earth is not suitable for growing fruits, so all of them are grown in the sky city and delivered directly by airships.
Looking at the price again, hmm~ Even a capitalist like her was stunned~
The price is shockingly high——
Apple is 50 grams per piece, and they dare to ask for 1,000 yuan
Grapes are 2,000 yuan a piece???
These tomatoes are not fully grown, definitely not cherry tomatoes, and they are a little smaller than a ping-pong ball, yet they dare to charge 3,000 yuan each!!!
A banana weighing 100 grams probably costs over five figures.
Lychees are even more terrifying, the king of fruits, one costs six figures...but it's quite big, almost the size of a ping-pong ball
Only watermelon is the cheapest, one scoop is 500 yuan, and the smallest round scoop of ice cream is also 500 yuan...
There are also some particularly high-end fruits, such as durian, mango, and jackfruit, which are even more expensive~~
According to this calculation, she likes to eat grapes, several bunches each time, how many zeros does that require~~~~
These are all luxuries...
No wonder Uncle Qin refused to buy her other fruits and only bought her apples. Each apple cost half a pound and only cost 5,000 yuan. The most important thing is that apples can be stored for a long time...
Zhang Xiaojia looked at her space ring, which was full of fruit, and fell silent. She bought the fruit in the ring. Did she no longer have to worry about money?
Her ancestral home is very big and the air is as good as that of a city in the sky. When she goes back today, she wants to plant some fruit.
She had just looked at the fruit when she saw Zhang Chengxi come in with a bowl and said, "Master, my father bought me some lychees. They're delicious. I'll give you one."
Zhang Xiaojia looked at the two peeled lychees in the bowl and took one without hesitation and started eating.
Hmmmm~~~It’s a bit sour and not sweet enough.
However, little Chengxi held the lychee and ate it with relish.
Zhang Xiaojia asked, "Chengxi, do you want to eat watermelon?"
Zhang Chengxi nodded vigorously and said, "Eat."
Zhang Xiaojia took out a watermelon, which was probably a big watermelon weighing about 20 kilograms. She sent a message to He Lin and Zhang Qirui, asking them to come and eat it together.
What she didn't expect was that Zhang Chengxi actually imitated her actions, picked up his phone and started a live broadcast to Chengzhi and his peers.
He Lin and Zhang Qirui came in and saw the watermelon. He Lin exclaimed in surprise, "Jia Jia, where did you get such a big watermelon?"
Zhang Xiaojia couldn't explain the origin of the things he took out, so he pushed them all to He Fei, saying with a smile, "I don't know. He Fei gave me a space ring with all kinds of things in it. I saw a few watermelons and took them out to eat."
Just as she was about to cut the watermelon, her phone kept ringing. Puzzled, she picked up her phone to check, only to find that she had been added to a group called "Cheng Zhibei".
One by one, they said they were on their way and wanted to eat too. The head of the family couldn't be partial and only give the food to Zhang Chengxi...
Zhang Xiaojia pinched Zhang Chengxi's face and said, "Xiao Chengxi, your brothers and sisters also want to eat watermelon, wait a moment!"
Zhang Xiaojia took the opportunity to discuss the family vegetable garden with Zhang Qirui.
Zhang Qirui said directly, "Master, we will assemble it and buy it in sets."
Zhang Xiaojia nodded and said, "Don't make too much money on this, keep the profit at around 10%."
After a while, a group of children of the same generation came and each had a piece of watermelon. Zhang Xiaojia simply took out another watermelon and cut it to eat.
Zhang Xiaojia had never imagined that just two watermelons would bring her so many people from all branches of the Zhang family over the next two days. Even the wives of Qi Zhizhi came to ask her for watermelon seeds, wanting to grow their own watermelons...
Xiao Ai sent a video to Zhang Xiaojia, who opened it without hesitation. The video revealed a shocking scene: the Wang family's laboratory in the Sky City had been thoroughly searched by law enforcement robots directed by the intelligent computer. Meanwhile, Xiao Ai had taken the opportunity to download a large amount of information about the Wang family.
The camera turned and the scene switched to the interior of an airship, which was packed with law enforcement robots from the Sky City. They had arrived on Earth and were preparing to arrest Wang Junjie.
Zhang Xiaojia asked, "Xiao Ai, where is Wang Junjie now?"
Xiao Ai said, "She is with your brother and sister now~"
If Wang Junjie was really captured by the Sky City Law Enforcement Team of Zhinao, would Lian Boyuan blame her?
Or should she find a reason to call Lian Boyuan away now and hide this matter from him?
Zhang Xiaojia fell into deep thought, then smiled: Forget it! Let's see what he does next, so that we can decide how to get along with him in the future.
Soon, the law enforcement robot quickly found Wang Junjie and arrested her. Wang Junjie was speaking to Lian Boyuan, her words full of accusations, as if implying that Zhang Xiaojia had deliberately allowed the law enforcement team to arrest her.
Zhang Xiaojia noticed that Lian Boyuan picked up his phone and wanted to call her, but eventually chose to put it down and go home alone.
It was time to get off work. If she wasn't proactive in going home, she would be considered to have a mental problem. Zhang Xiaojia didn't waste even a minute and went straight home. After all, there might be an argument waiting for her.
