Chapter 521: Chapter 521: We’re Vegetable Growers (3)

After enduring a day and night of torment, Tang Jinglan was in a daze at work.

She waited until after work, but nothing happened, which left Tang Jinglan feeling a bit confused.

She had imagined many possibilities in her mind, but never considered that nothing would happen, not even a single warning.

Why is it like this?

Walking on the way to pick up her son from kindergarten, Tang Jinglan was pondering.

Could it be that the boss still doesn’t know?

Tang Jinglan shook her head, it was unlikely.

Unknowingly, Tang Jinglan had already reached the kindergarten entrance.

"Mom, the access card."

"Ah? Oh right, the access card." Hearing her son’s voice from inside the kindergarten, Tang Jinglan snapped back to reality.

On the way back, Wang Haoran pulled out a bottle of Wahaha from his pocket and handed it to his mom.

"Mom, the big sister gave this to me, you drink it."

"Candy didn’t say anything?"

"Nope."

"I see~"

"Mom, let’s hurry home, I’m hungry."

————————————

"Boss, one hundred algorithm engineers have boarded the plane."

Just returning to the office, Mo Jingchun nodded and took a few big gulps of cool boiled water.

On the sofa, Zhou Yaling and Candy, who had been playing rock-paper-scissors jokingly, stopped their game upon seeing Mo Jingchun return and started packing up to go home.

Picking up his coat, Mo Jingchun turned and said to Xia Xiaomin: "Coordinate well with the other side, and if any unsolvable problems arise, report to me promptly."

"Don’t bother me with trivial things, I’m particularly busy lately, my energy is limited."

"Also, call Xu Pengfei and tell him to hurry back to work."

"Okay." Xia Xiaomin shrugged helplessly, but she could see that the boss was genuinely busy lately, returning every afternoon looking exhausted.

"Candy, let’s go home."

"Coming~ coming~"

"Bun, get in the car."

Waiting for the car outside the office building, Candy sniffed the air, "Brother, it smells so good~"

"It seems like the osmanthus is blooming."

"Not just smells good, it’s blooming, especially the osmanthus tree at the canteen entrance, it’s the most fragrant."

"Hahaha, it must be Little Grey’s doing." Candy laughed heartily.

In the distance, the osmanthus tree at the canteen entrance swayed in the wind, emitting a faint fragrance that made many employees heading to the canteen pause to take photos.

It’s not that no one wanted to pick a branch of osmanthus, but besides a sign forbidding picking, there was also another sign nearby that read:

"Beware of vicious dogs, do not approach!"

Of course, the most crucial thing was an additional camera that somehow appeared near the osmanthus tree.

For Candy Technology’s veteran employees, they wouldn’t go near the osmanthus tree even without these warnings.

That was the territory of Candy’s two pets, not to mention the police dog that loved lying under the osmanthus tree every day.

The car slowly came over from the parking lot, and Candy also held a handful of osmanthus flowers.

Once in the car, the whole vehicle was filled with the rich scent of osmanthus, which smelled delightful.

In the evening, after dinner, it was another uneventful day.

Candy, out of the blue, ran upstairs to play the piano.

Zhou Yaling, barefoot on the sofa, was playing a game and cursing.

Only Mo Jingchun kept to his usual routine, watching half an hour of news broadcast every day.

Suddenly, a news segment caught his intense interest.

Instantly, Mo Jingchun’s brain selectively blocked out Zhou Yaling’s cursing voice.

"According to the latest news, our country plans to build a long-term usable lunar underground base for our scientific research."

"According to the latest studies, the Moon is suitable for growing vegetables, which is also the main research direction of our space experiments."

Damn growing vegetables. When Mo Jingchun heard that the purpose of building a lunar base was to grow vegetables, he knew it was just to bluff foreign countries.

Everyone knows that you wouldn’t go to the trouble of building a lunar underground base just to grow a few vegetables.

But saying this conveniently shuts people up, leaving them speechless.

What to do with a lunar underground base? It’s clearly told that it’s for growing vegetables.

What? You don’t believe it? That’s impossible, the citizens of our country have unwavering faith in it.

What? You want a tour?

"Haha."

Laughing, Mo Jingchun fell into contemplation again.

Building an underground base on the Moon is not like on Blue Star.

The construction difficulty is one thing; another challenge is how to transport those facilities to the Moon.

Not to mention others, even he feels that building a lunar underground base is too costly.

Simple experimental research doesn’t require this; a convenient surface base is already sufficient.

"There’s only one answer." Mo Jingchun muttered to himself while thinking.

"Only one answer to what?"

Being suddenly interrupted, Mo Jingchun felt annoyed and glared at Zhou Yaling.

"Play your game, and stop with the unnecessary questions, can’t you see I’m thinking?"

Understanding the situation, Zhou Yaling didn’t bother about losing the game and swiftly tiptoed away with her shoes.

Never interrupt when the elder brother is thinking, or he’ll explode~

This was Zhou Yaling’s learned wisdom.

Mo Jingchun didn’t pay much attention to Zhou Yaling’s departure, touching his chin, he confidently chuckled: "For such a commotion, there’s only one possibility, they’ve discovered something on the Moon."

Most likely, it’s new minerals, and very valuable ones, that’s Mo Jingchun’s genuine thought.

The Moon contains various minerals not found on Blue Star; that’s a significant reason countries are keen to explore the Moon.

Mo Jingchun predicts that in no more than three days, the Beautiful Country will surely follow Xia Country’s lead and globally announce plans to build a lunar underground base.

But if they really do that, there’s a good show to watch.

One is to facilitate the extraction of important minerals, and the other simply to showcase being the number one country.

Once implemented, Mo Jingchun has no doubt that this action might very well cripple the Beautiful Country’s economy.

At that moment, without taxpayer support, the Beautiful Country’s projects would inevitably be halted, like their space shuttles in the past.

At night, lying in bed, Mo Jingchun turned on short videos, unsurprisingly, such a large plan immediately topped searches, with the pinned notification on the platform, traffic was surging.

The title was also blood-pumping.

[Awesome, my country]

However, after watching for a moment, Mo Jingchun put down the phone.

The Moon is still too far away. Candy Technology can’t even make a rocket now, let alone modify more advanced aerospace fighters into space shuttles.

Either way, there’s still a long road ahead.
