76. The fat sheep took the bait

Jian Ling had already said this, and Xia couldn't find a reason to stop her, but before Jian Ling left, he put forward a condition: "When you come back, you will follow me to meet someone." ”

"Who?"

"My dad."

Hearing these two words, Jian Ling, who was wearing a coat, paused and looked at him in surprise. If she agrees to see his father, it means that the relationship between the two will be completely fixed, and she doesn't disagree with this, but the news is a little too sudden, and she has to digest it.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xia approached from behind, stretched out his long arms to hug her, and bit her earlobe: "What are you thinking?" ”

"What should I prepare for my first meeting with my parents?"

Xia, who was still a little nervous, heard this, and his mood index suddenly soared several levels, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily raised: "You don't need to prepare anything, leave everything to me, you just need to show up and have a meal by the way." ”

――Feelings, she just goes to eat and drink?

Jian Ling tugged at the corners of her mouth, and insisted on maintaining her image as a good daughter-in-law: "Uncle has something he likes, this trip, if he can find it, he can bring some back as gifts." ”

Xia lowered his head and rubbed in her neck socket, greedily absorbing her breath: "I don't know what he likes." ”

"Aren't you his son? Why don't you even know what your father likes," Jian Ling felt that he was perfunctory.

"I've grown up on the Velvet Mine since I was a child, and I was found back at the age of eighteen, and I met my dad for the first time, and until now, we don't even make a phone call unless we meet when necessary."

He spoke calmly and coldly, as if he was talking about someone else's house, and had nothing to do with him as a bystander.

This is the first time he has taken the initiative to mention his background.

Jian Ling looked sideways slightly, but he couldn't see his eyes hidden in the neck socket: "Aren't you from the royal family?" ”

"I was born in the royal family, but I didn't grow up in the royal family," Xia's arms tightened a little, and he was willing to confide in his daughter-in-law about the past that he never mentioned in front of outsiders, "When I was born, I happened to encounter a rebellion, and by mistake, I was sent out of the palace and exiled to the Velvet Mine. After ten years there, I managed to escape, was drafted into the army, became a senior officer at the age of sixteen, and received the Medal of Honor of the First Class at the age of eighteen, and my first meeting with my dad was at the medal presentation ceremony. ”

A series of experiences, to put it simply and neatly, but Jian Ling used to be a person who climbed from the bottom to the top step by step. She knows very well how much it takes for an ordinary person, without the support of a family background, to stand on the cutting edge of power.

originally thought that he was a young master of the royal family who was born with a golden spoon, but he didn't expect to peel off that glamorous coat, and he actually walked harder than anyone else on this journey.

Jian Ling laughed in a low voice: "In this way, we are actually about the same, we are all growing in the wild outside. The only difference is that she has an older brother with her, and he is only one person.

Thinking of this, she reached out to hold his hand holding her tightly and squeezed it gently.

With the warm fragrant nephrite in his arms, Xia felt that the bones in his whole body were crispy: "I really can't bear to let you go......"

"I'll bring you a gift later."

"I don't want a gift, I want you."

This was said so confidently that Jian Ling couldn't help but blush, hiding a little sweetness, and comforted him again.

The time was almost up, Nick estimated that he was in a hurry, and Jian Ling pecked at the corner of his lips: "Uncle's side...... Don't really need a gift? ”

The daughter-in-law was leaving, and Xia was in a very bad mood, so she said casually: "You can get him a pair of flying chess." ”

- Ludo chess? How can a daughter-in-law send flying chess to her in-laws for the first time?

Jian Ling looked at him with some uncertainty: "Uncle likes to play flying chess?" ”

"The last time I saw him, he was having a lot of fun with my brother on the chessboard, and he shouted for me to participate too, I guess I like it more," remembering his father's scoundrel appearance when he regretted chess, he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and he would never play flying chess with his father again in the next life

"You still have a brother?"

"Well, I'm two years younger than me, I'll introduce you later."

No matter how reluctant he was, in the end, he could only watch his daughter-in-law follow other men, and Jade and Moore consciously followed. The blue streaks suddenly disappeared again, and I didn't even say hello, and I didn't know where I was going to do business again.

As for Jian Xin, before Jian Ling left, he had already been taken away by Jian Ling in a way.

If he found out that she was going to the pirate's den, he would have to drag her back.

As soon as Jian Ling left, basically everyone dispersed, and the warship seemed to be suddenly empty, and Xia didn't have time to sigh a lonely sadness like snow, so he was robbed of all his attention by the work in front of him.

As a result of the explosion in Orben, there was considerable repercussions within the Sunau Empire, especially some high-ranking government officials who knew about the destruction of the Institute, and they were very concerned about the matter. Although they issued several orders in succession to block all news about the city of Orben, the explosion was so tragic that the residents of several nearby cities already knew about it, and the news spread quickly throughout the country as if it had grown wings.

The media tried their best to sneak into Orben City to find out, but most of them were stopped by soldiers guarding outside the city, but there were also a few reporters with doorways who sneaked in.

The wreckage of some mechs has been discovered, as well as countless charred and mutilated corpses, all of which are indicative of the brutal battles that took place here.

Originally, the government's lie that it was all a fire accident was self-defeating.

For this reason, the government had to spend more effort to deal with the media entanglement, while calming the doubts of all parties on the surface, and secretly sending people to quickly dispose of the corpses and wreckage, and was busy in the dark.

Natsu, who had come as an envoy, was left aside, and he didn't feel annoyed, but took the initiative to come up and ask if he needed help.

With such a shady housework, how could the Sunao Empire be willing to let outsiders interfere? Naturally, he politely declined his kindness.

Unexpectedly, Xia's words made them want to bite off their tongues.

"The explosion caused by polychloride ammonia can easily remain in the air, causing further deterioration of the environment, which is very unfavorable to the current Sunao Empire."

In just a few sentences, it not only shows that he knows the real cause of the explosion in Orben, but also knows the most critical environmental problem of the Sunao Empire at present, so does he also know the secret of immortality in the research room secretly using living people as specimens?

Thinking of this, the foreign minister in charge of contact wiped his cold sweat and couldn't stop his heart from beating.

Without waiting for the other party to deny it, Xia then gave him a trick: "Your country's current environmental situation is very worrying, as a friendly territory, my country naturally cannot sit idly by, if your country does not mind, my country is willing to sell a few pieces of land to your country for turnover." ”

As soon as he heard this, the Foreign Minister's eyes lit up, but the stakes were very high, and although he thought it was a very good idea, he still had to make a report to his superiors to see what was going on from above.

The reason why the government of the Sunau Empire spared no expense to study the secret of longevity was not entirely due to the self-luxury of some individual high-level leaders, but also the current environmental reasons of the Sunao Empire. In recent years of rapid development, the government has made a lot of money by exporting equipment technology, but it has brought about extreme deterioration of the environment.

In response to the government's call, the private sector has gone to great lengths to exploit resources and build processing plants, which not only emptied up all resources, but also destroyed the balance of the ecological environment. The original climate with four distinct seasons was replaced by cold and snow in the middle of winter, and not a single flower could no longer be seen in full bloom, and the toxic substances in the air increased dramatically, causing the average life expectancy of the Sunao Empire to plummet.

By the time the government sensed the crisis, the environment had fallen into irreparable predicament, and seeing more and more people dying every year due to various strange diseases, the senior officials who knew about it began to put themselves at risk.

Since the environment cannot be changed, it is time to change the human body itself - and the suggestion was put forward like a ray of hope for the high-ranking officials who were in deep fear.

From the most open animal experiments, to fresh corpses that have just died, and finally to living people...... fell deeper and deeper step by step, and finally created today's ending.

The experiment has not progressed, and now there is such a big thing, and the eyes of all walks of life are firmly focused on them, and the high-ranking officials who were already overwhelmed are now frightened by Xia's words.

Xia was received by the supreme head of the Sunao Empire, and the first time the two sides met, they inadvertently looked at each other from head to toe.

The emperor of the Sunau Empire was called Chalmers, a middle-aged uncle in his fifties, dressed in a gorgeous Baroque attire. The top is very close-fitting, with an exaggerated white pleated collar that wraps around the neck, revealing a round head, which looks a little funny.

Of course, Xia, as the messenger, did not show the bad intentions in his stomach, but smiled like an elegant gentleman with excellent cultivation: "Your Majesty, it is really an honor to be received by you on your own initiative." ”

Chalmers very politely invited him to sit down, and said a cliché. Seeing that Xia had not mentioned the topic, Chalmers, who had been tormented by various problems during this time, couldn't help but first couldn't help it: "That little thing in my country, I think the generals already know, I didn't expect the generals to be willing to help, I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to you on behalf of the people of the Sunao Empire." ”

"The Sunau Empire and the Welsh Empire are friendly territories, and they should help each other, Your Majesty doesn't need to be so polite," Xia smiled, looking really friendly and kind.

Seeing that he had been unwilling to say the details of his help, Chalmers was secretly annoyed, but because he had something to ask for, he had to take the initiative to lower his figure again: "Your country, the leading power of the Interstellar Alliance, has expanded its territory to four times over the years. As far as I know, one-tenth of your country's soil is idle, and if your country is willing to transfer it, we are willing to buy it at a high price. “

As long as there is land, the people of the Sunao Empire have a temporary refuge, and the environmental problems have time to ease.

As for the money, the deep-pocketed Sunau Empire didn't mind at all, as long as the Welsh Empire relented, they could buy it at all costs.

At this moment, Xia secretly made a V-shaped gesture in his heart - the fat sheep took the bait.
