When Long Cheng and Jasmine returned to the cargo ship, they found that the "middle-aged and elderly tourist group" had returned, with large and small bags almost filling the restaurant. It seemed that they had gained a lot.
The news is played on the large light screen in the restaurant, which serves as the background sound for everyone's chat.
"Oh, this place is really fun to have fun with. There are only human heads. It's so confusing to see."
"These combs are so good. The ones with horns are said to relax muscles, activate blood circulation, and massage the scalp. I don't know what kind of ox it is? Rhino or bison? It costs 500 yuan. Let me try it for you."
"I bought a few peace charms, and they all said they were very effective. The master had blessed them. One for Guoguo, one for Little Jasmine, and one for Xiao Longcheng. All the dolls have become very good."
…
Femi and Uncle Gen were slumped in their chairs with dull expressions. They were both working as coolies throughout the process.
Others are very excited and still have something to say.
Seeing Long Cheng and Jasmine coming back, everyone waved and talked a lot.
Jasmine acted well-behaved, her mouth was as sweet as honey, and her aunts and aunties went around and received a bunch of gifts, and her eyes were so smiley that they turned into two crescents.
Long Cheng had an extra bag of apples in his hand, which his grandma bought specially for him.
The apple was red, round, and exuded an alluring sweet fragrance. Long Cheng couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Grandma smiled and said: "Good boy, eat, eat."
Long Cheng picked up an apple and clicked it. He was as satisfied as a hamster. The lines on his cold face were stretched out, soft and relaxed. His eyes were opened much wider than usual, and pupils that involuntarily dilated were rarely able to see.
The whole picture looks like a bright black full moon, and it's a little cute.
(′｀)!
Grandma Lao Huai comforted her: "Eat slowly. I bought you a lot of ribs. You need to gain some meat."
Jasmine came over and said, "Grandma, Jasmine also wants to eat apples."
Long Cheng stopped chewing for an instant, turned around with wide eyes, and looked at Jasmine with murderous intent.
Jasmine blinked: "Grandma, the teacher is staring at me."
Bang, grandma snatched the apple from Long Cheng's hand: "You kid, don't be cruel to little Jasmine. You are already a teacher, and you still fight for food with students?"
Dragon City's arms were empty, and it was as dumb as a wooden mouse.
Grandma showed a doting smile: "Come on, little Jasmine, you and Xiao Longcheng are half together."
Jasmine kissed her grandma on the face and said, "Thank you, grandma."
Then he made a face at Longcheng, jumped away, and ran to tease Guoguo.
Grandma smiled happily: "This kid!"
Long Cheng looked at Jasmine's disappearing back and thought of the half-bag of apples that had disappeared. He felt so sad and angry that he bit into pieces even the core of the apple.
He decided to add some content to Jasmine's class next time.
Grandma was muttering to the side: "Things here are too expensive! An apple costs 50 yuan, ours costs 4 yuan and 50 yuan each, and the price of meat is five times as much as ours. This place is not good."
Grandma's words immediately resonated, and others responded one after another.
"Yeah, I didn't know it was so expensive to spread the seeds? Are you afraid there are gold lumps in their soil?"
"Farmers here are living a good life, and vegetables can be sold at high prices. No wonder people say that farmers in big cities are extremely rich. Isn't this because they are rich?"
"You still have to grow it yourself. When I saw the price of vegetables, I immediately bought a big bag of seeds. Kangkang, be diligent and thrifty! From now on, we will grow our own seeds and eat them ourselves!"
"Yes! When we get to Xiaoguang Star, we can buy a big farm! We can grow whatever we want!"
Long Cheng raised his hand: "Many, many apple trees!"
I just experienced a battle. Although the intensity was not very high and no one was killed, the corpses and blood were not a beautiful sight, and the smell of incendiary bomb smoke was not pleasant at all.
Longcheng didn't like it.
Now I am sitting in a simple restaurant converted from a cargo ship, gnawing apples, and listening to everyone talking about homely things and the future farm.
I don’t know why, but Longcheng likes it very much.
"Yes, yes, plant apple trees! 50 yuan for an apple is killing people!"
"We also need to raise pigs! Everyone likes to eat ribs so much, we need to raise more pigs."
"How many? At least a hundred! Xiao Longcheng is just a loser, or a loser like Mo Dedi. If you let him eat, I'm afraid he won't be able to eat more than one pig a day."
Long Cheng's expression was a little dull. He felt that there was nothing wrong with what they said, but he also felt that something was wrong.
"Xiao Longcheng is afraid that Pixiu is the reincarnation of Pixiu. He won't be able to eat it for long, and he doesn't know where the meat went."
"Nonsense! What's Pixiu! Pixiu doesn't poop after he eats it. What day will he stop pooping in Xiaolongcheng?"
"How do you know Xiaolongcheng poops every day?"
"Little Jasmine said that!"
…
Jasmine!!!
Dragon City fled in despair.
The next day, Catherine and Du Bei returned together, their faces rosy and radiant.
After a while, Roma also arrived late. The red silk scarf was still swaying, and the cold face under the black sunglasses was unyielding.
Long Cheng, Jasmine, Doctor, and Du Bei all made the same move at the same time, their noses twitching.
Everyone present was either good at modifying light armor or repairing precision instruments. Even Jasmine, who had been working in a laboratory all year round, was very familiar with the smell of engine oil.
Roma's face turned red and he coughed lightly: "Everyone is back."
Sensible Jasmine, mature Doctor and Du Bei all tacitly pretended that nothing happened.
Only...
Long Cheng: "You went to take off the light armor?"
After all, Rom is an old man with an unusually thick skin: "I've been addicted to handicrafts, is that okay?"
"No problem." Long Cheng was concerned about another question: "Are there any wages?"
Rom was stunned for a moment and shook his head honestly: "This kind of day laborer won't make much money unless the boss is short of people."
Dragon City was greatly disappointed. The comic exhibition was over and there was no chance to make money.
Rom was a little surprised: "Are you short of money?"
Long Cheng was even more surprised: "You are not in need?"
"There is no shortage." Rom said confidently: "You have food and accommodation, what's the point of asking for money? Are you going to buy the light armor and dismantle it?"
Longcheng: "..."
At this moment, a message on the light screen in the restaurant suddenly caught everyone's attention.
"Insert the latest news. Just at 8 o'clock yesterday evening, a military rebellion broke out in the Dongan star of the Blue Hao Federation. The local armed force Dongan Green Guards took over the local government. The local leaders of the Dongan government have been controlled."
"It is reported that the military rebellion is most likely related to the cult. The Lan Hao Federation has issued an ultimatum, requiring the Dong'an Green Guards to surrender immediately and unconditionally and release all government officials, otherwise they will suffer a devastating blow!"
"I just received the latest news that the Dong'an Green Guards refused any negotiations and threatened that they will blow up the jump point near Dong'an if they are threatened by the federation."
"Dongan Star is the only way for the Blue Hao Federation to go to the Dawn Federation. Once the jump point is blown up, the waterway will be paralyzed."
"It is worth noting that just a few days ago, there was a rebellion on Beilin Star, an important planet from the Hedai Federation to the Dawn Federation. The ZM-00718 jump point was controlled by reactionary forces, and the waterway to the Dawn Federation was blocked."
"Affected by this, the three major federal stock markets, Liming, He Dai, and Lan Hao, plummeted at the opening. The three major stock indexes fell as much as 11.2%, and the commodities fell by 9.6%. Military industry stocks bucked the trend and rose, with varying degrees of increase..."
