In a barren world of deserts and a handful of oases, the scarcity is not energy, but food and fresh water.

Therefore, theoretically, an experimental farm invested and built by an extraordinary biological genius may even change the future of the entire 'Noah' to some extent, and naturally it is more meaningful than community labor.

Hearing that her son had something important to do, Lili, of course, did not force him to participate in community service, but asked with concern, "Baby, do you think it is possible to grow cotton fields in the desert?"

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert oasis is as high as dozens of degrees, and after the war on the earth, natural cotton textiles gradually became extremely scarce in the Noahian world.

"Who knows, Mom, although cotton doesn't like wet areas, it can't survive on sandy ground, I plan to improve cotton seeds and pastures, but whether it can succeed or not, everything is unknown..."

Feeling out his mobile phone and looking at it for a while, the young man's face slowly became solemn, and he said in a low voice: "I just received a message that the expedition sent by LS to collect good varieties in Mengzhou has also returned to 'Noah'.

They heard from Stephen.

He is said to have become a key member of Robbins' Arrows, a non-governmental armed group in Robbins City that resists invaders from another world.

Adolf, the leader of the expedition, did not see Stephen himself, but sent him a message through an intermediary saying that he intended to bring him to 'Noah', but Stephen refused. ”

"Why is Stephen refusing to come to the Noahic realm, the earth is so dangerous now..."Lily couldn't help but widen her eyes. Said loudly.

The eldest son of the Laven family can be said to have been raised by her, and emotionally similar to her own biological child, she couldn't help but exclaim when she heard that Stephen would rather stay on the dangerous earth and fight against the invaders of the otherworld than go to the safety of 'Noah'.

No one could answer such a question, and the originally relaxed atmosphere at the table instantly became solemn, and the last thing was that the head of the Laven family stood up, came to his wife's side, patted her on the shoulder, and gently comforted: "My dear." Staying on Earth and fighting the invaders was Stephen's own choice. We should be proud of his bravery. ”

"Oh Suro, we are indeed proud of Stephen, he will be fine, God will bless him. From the trembling palms on his shoulders, I could feel my husband's excitement and worry, which was diametrically opposed to his expression. Lily calmed down instead. Stroking the back of Raven's hand and comforting each other.

Zhang Lisheng understands that the so-called 'civil armed groups' that remain on the planet today are almost equivalent to gangs of anarchist thugs. But it is clearly not appropriate to tell such a truth at this moment.

He put his phone back in his pocket, and said to his mother insincerely, "Mom, Stephen is so smart. He is also the leader of the organization, and the situation must not be as dangerous as we imagined.

Sooner or later, you and Uncle Ravan will be able to see him again in peace, and by the way, he will also send a letter to the expedition, and I will bring it to you in the evening. ”

"Li Sheng, you rescued Michelle and brought back news of Stephen, I thank you for everything you have done to this family. Su Luo raised his head and looked at the young man, his tone was full of gratitude, and he said sincerely.

"Uncle Laven, we're family, aren't we, that's what I'm supposed to do. Zhang Lisheng naturally knew what he should say at this time, and replied with a smile, in exchange for a gratifying hug from Lili.

It was not early then, and after the young man left his mother's arms, he said goodbye with a large piece of cake and went out of the house.

Giving Lily's kindness to the homeless man who had slept all night on the lawn, with a bearded, ragged face and a blank expression, he walked to the community parking lot not far away.

He was only halfway through when a clear female voice suddenly sounded behind the young man, "Li Sheng, wait a minute." ”

"Is there anything wrong with Ruili?" Standing and turning to look in the direction where the voice came from, Zhang Lisheng asked suspiciously, looking at the Laven family and daughter who came in a hurry.

"Li Sheng, Rebecca accidentally slipped and injured her leg while recording the show, and the producer asked me to go over to work overtime temporarily, can you give me a ride?" Ruili pleaded.

"Absolutely. The young man nodded.

"Oh, that's wonderful, thank you, my dear brother.

This is a good opportunity for me, and if I do a good job, I may be able to be promoted to assistant producer in advance. Ruili said excitedly: "Can you go driving first, I will put on makeup right now, and I will finish the work in the best condition in a while." ”

"Well, I'm glad I could help, Ruili, I just hope that your colleague named Rebecca will never know how excited you are now because of her broken leg. Zhang Lisheng shrugged and continued to walk towards the parking lot.

The best way to get around the sandbank is a powerful jeep, and after arriving at the 'New Washington A', the youth abandoned the luxury SUV and chose a Chrysler concept solar sand jeep.

Although the appearance and comfort are a little worse, the excellent off-road performance and the fact that you never have to refuel more than make up for it more than make up for it.

When the young man drove the surface of the car body and was completely wrapped in a dull black soft solar storage panel, and the boxy jeep appeared in front of Ruili, the girl who was wearing lipstick was startled.

"Oh, Li Sheng, I've never seen your new car, and to be honest, you're getting more and more personal, it's not like a billionaire's car. The eldest daughter of the Chauvin family pouted and sat in the passenger seat of the jeep as she spoke.

"Although it looks as unremarkable as I am, this car can run at a speed of 150 kilometers per hour for half a day in 60 minutes of sunlight.

Drive it into the desert, at least I don't have to worry about breaking down and getting sunburned and mummified because I run out of gasoline because I get lost. The young man said casually, typed the letters NBC (National Broadcasting Corporation) on the center console composed of the entire LCD screen, started the car, and drove into the road.

"Ah, it turned out to be an expensive 'toy' with such a unique performance, and after listening to your explanation, I think it is very suitable for billionaires. Ruili curiously touched the unique center console in front of her, turned her head to look at the side of her Asian brother who was neither father nor mother, and said, "Li Sheng, you are much more handsome than when you were a child.

It's quite exotic now, and her appearance is not inconspicuous, by the way, are you still dating that wealthy lady?"

"Tina has been missing for a long time. The young man was silent for a moment and said in a low voice.

"Oh, Li Sheng, I'm so sorry. Ruili was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said apologetically.

"It's okay," Zhang Lisheng smiled confusedly, and asked inadvertently, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask me this question?"

"It's Aunt Lili, she sees that you have been idle at home most of the time since you came to 'Noah', so I have the opportunity to ask if you have any other dating partners, and if not, introduce your girlfriend to you.

I can tell she wants you to settle down, stay in the Noahic realm honestly, and stop running around and going missing and adventuring.

Although she also knows that even if you do have a girlfriend in 'New Washington A', it is impossible to settle down, but, you should understand the feelings of a mother. ”

After being silent for a while, the young man nodded with mixed feelings and said, "Of course I understand, Ruili, of course I understand." The great gods were helpless in the face of their mother's love.

"Do you need me to introduce you to a girlfriend, Li Sheng," Ruili said half-seriously, half-jokingly, "You either stay at home or work all day, never go to bars or nightclubs, and are so wooden in front of strange girls, and more importantly, you don't have a 'I'm super rich' tattooed on your head, so it's not easy to please young girls." ”

"I'm going to be busy after screening cotton seeds, and I'm not in the mood to find a girlfriend now, so I'll talk about it later. As a god, Zhang Lisheng is grateful for his mother's love, and he will not be bored enough to compose a new love song with a mortal girl, and immediately prevaricated.

At this time, it happened that Jeep had already arrived in front of the more than 60-story broadcasting building of NBC, and the young man hurriedly parked the car under the crowded steps, "The TV station has arrived, Ruili, see you again." ”

"It seems that you are in a hurry to let me get out of the car, then I will see Li Sheng again. Ruili shrugged her shoulders and pushed the door open and stepped out of the car, merging in the flow of people, and disappeared after a while, while Zhang Lisheng turned the car around and drove out of the city.

Turning west on the wide, flat road, the barren desert in the distance had already appeared on the horizon, and suddenly the mobile phone in the young man's pocket rang.

Calling out the caller ID on the center console, seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Zhang Lisheng hung up casually, but he didn't expect that more than ten seconds later, the bell of 'chirp...' rang again.

"Hey, who is it?" this time the young man answered the phone directly.

"Dr. Zhang Lisheng, hello, I take the liberty of excuse me, I'm Philips Edwards, head of the Logistics Support Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense. A serious voice came from the phone.

"Logistics Support Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense," Zhang Lisheng suppressed the joy in his heart, and said in a flat tone: "Oh, I have dealt with the Ministry of Defense a few times before, and I remember it deeply, but now there should be no contact, do you have anything to do?"

"Doctor, I am well aware of your tremendous contribution to federal security, and I would like to talk to you about something very important in person, could you please spare a few minutes for me?"

"Of course Mr. Philips, but I'm going to the newly opened experimental ranch today to pick cotton seeds..."

"Is that okay tomorrow, Doctor?"

"Okay, then tomorrow at nine o'clock in the morning, we'll see you in the lobby of the 'Neptune Building'. Zhang Lisheng preemptively determined that the meeting place was in the hotel under his name.

"See you tomorrow, good doctor. The serious voice on the other end of the phone hesitated and agreed. (To be continued......)
